Another One Gone.

Another of the old settlers Of this
part of Kansas has finished his work
and turned in his accounts.
XII Balch came here with his brother
George in 1866 and has been familiar
figure ever since, until the last year
or two he has been confined closely at
home on account of sickness. He
died last Saturday and was buried in
carlton cemetery Sunday morning
A very large concourse OF people
followed his remains TO the grave as a
last token of respect.
For many years the Balch Bros:
was one If the best known firms OF
stock men in this locality, but on
KRIS failing health they have confined
themselves more closely to the opera
tions on their farms and handling
their own stock
XII was an educated intelligent
man, genial and pleasant with all.
He will be missed not alone by his
immediate relatives, but by large
circle of friends and acquaintences.
The funeral services were conduct
ed by Rev. McHue Of the U. Is. church
in a very impressive manner

The Races.

The races held in Chanute last Fri
day and Saturday were poorly attend
ed but those who attended seemed tC
be we'll satisfied and seemed to think
they got their moneys worth.
The sack races and mule and
farmers races made lots Of fun.
We are very sorry the association
did not go to work with a will and get
up an agricultural fair. 1t would
have been greatly appreciated by the
farming community as we'll as large
majority of our citizens, Everybody
now says Just wait till next year and
we will all go in together and get up
fair that will be a credit to the
town. We hope they will all keep in
that notion and that next year Cha
mute will have a fair that will dc her
credit.
Tlmpayne. L. II. Cole and Aug
Baries worked very faithfully to pull
off the races successfully. and succeed
ed very well considering the short
time they had in which to arrange
matters.

HANCOCK'S GRAVE IN RUINS.
'"'e on root to Repair the Tomb of
the Noted Soldier In the City

Neglected and forgotten, the a
OF Gen. Winfield Scott Hancock is fall.
ing into ruin.
The remains of the famous soldier
rest in a vault in the southeastern cor
ner of the Montgomery cemetery.
Philadelphia. There was a great
funeral when he was buried. and the
greatest men in the nation, together
with thousands of his fellow citizens.
turned out to see him laid to rest.
But now the mortar has fallen from
between the stones and no inscrip-
no. OF any kind marks the grave of
Pcnnsylyania's greatest soldier.
ms neglect is due in great measure
to carelessness. There are few people
VINO know where his body lies. The
only guide to the location of the tomb
is a metallic yase filed with flowers
which was placed there by a chemical
company, and the name Hancock"
being blown in the vase people are
thus guided to the spot.
DirectIy across the river, In striking
contrast, is a monument to Gen. John
f.. Hartranft. This is one of the finest
monuments in this vicinity. Attention
has recently been called to the dis
eIacefui condition of Hancock's grave,
and there is a movement on foot to
clean it and erect a suitable monu-
ment to the glory of the dead general.
Those in charge of the movement

that she had reached a critical period Of her
life, and must be very careful. His pre-
scriptions and treatment did not benefit her,
and other treatment proved unavailing.
At Last DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People were brought to her notice, with in.
dlsputable evidence that they were helpful
in cases such as hers, and with renewed hope
she tried the remedy. Last March she took
the first box of the pills, which gave much
relief, She was determined to be cured,

eight boxes have been consumed, and she

old cat did likewise. BY way of
