About That Fuel Famine.

A friend brings word to this office
that the Rich Hill, Mo, papers of
this week rollicked in a story about
the gas at lola having failed and d
fuel famine being on which was
marked by the hourly death of chill
dren and women from cold. One
cannot contemplate the account with
out tears OF COMMUNICATION. Dante's
"Inferno" did not more horribly and
graphically portray the eternal fry
ing pan. And the worst of it is, all
that sympathy which might help
some deserving soul is being wasted
lola never had more or better gas than
she has right now, and there is very
respectable bunch of people here who
will give guarantee, nay a written
guarantee, that if each and every
person who has been weeping over
Iola's misfortune will come here and
sit for thirty seconds over the poorest
of thirty wells, his tears will be for
ever dried and the very source singed
into an everlasting kinker.
This continual lying of all the lit
tie tommy rot papers that have q
chunk of coal somew here between
them and the center OF the earth
about lola gas is tiresome. They lie
and they know they lie and they
know lola people know they lie and
yet they do it. When they are dead
and are having the book-keeper figure
up their accounts at the desk in the
hereafter, If old Nick will just say
the word he can have one of the lola
wells for nothing (the same rate
charged other manufacturers to put
a finishing crisp on the outside OF
their hides. AT that time the wells
will be here, and they'll be there II
they don't quit lying or, to put it
mildly, guessing at what they know
nothing of,

Convention Hall Donations.

lola people are becoming broader
every day and the more people there
are here the more fingers there are
to insert beneath the upper crust cf
the Deighbors' pies. Considerable
interest has been manifested i'm Kan
sas City's effort to- build convention
hall and the other day "a paper wa
started to buy tickets and people
fought for places. The statement
was made that one ticket would
drow $4,000 house. another a 81 900
calf and others wagon loads of beer
In spite of these things men and
women took tickets and will stoicallv
endure the trial if they are compelled
TO bring up the aristocrstic calf OF
out down the bottled beer. The
money was sent to the Nebraska
Clothing Company, three of whose
lady clerks are rustling to sell tickets.
The instructions were to give two
thirds to the ugliest, and of course
there will be row when the mana
ger makes his selection. The fat girl
received the next sixth and the pretty
one the rest. If lola wins the three
prizes she will build q club house foI
lola visitors in Kansas City with the
first prize, put the beer in the cellar
and eat the calf at the opening ban
quet. Plans for the future have not
been completed farther. The blend
ing of egoism and sltruism in the
buying is beautiful.

PIPE GAS TO KANSAS CITY.

first purpose Of the company is to supply gas to
Ottawa, Neosho Falls and other Kansas towns

to be unlimited and the piping of it to other
towns, iti- thought will not adect the supply

es. In regard to there being an unlimited
supply of gas there are many in lola who think
that this company will be met with disappoiut
ment because there is already great drain
upon the field and that the amount necessarily
used by them will very materially lessen the
life of the gas supply. These are the ones who
believe in outstanding the supply for the ben.
eft of lola so that some sort of tangible excuse
can be had for several years of prosperity to
the town. The more sanguine however. be.
lievethat the gas will last as long as the coal in
this district no matter what the drain might
be. Time will tell, however, in this as It does
in every thing else. -Pittsburg Headlight

sand was struck about o'clock there was
intense excitement By the time the drill

something for which can never thank him

his story, made affidavit to its truth before
