EXPANSION!
LANYON ZINC COMPANY Is SPEND
ING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS
On THE LOCAL PLANTS.
A FACTORY WATER WORKS
Will be Put i'm. and New kilns and Ore
Sheds Are Already Under
Construction.

While everybody il busy speculat-
ing on what the next enterprise will
bs that locates in lola the works we
already have should not be left out
the calculation. Since the Lanyon
Zinc Company took charge Of the
Lanyon interests here they have done
lot of figuring on extensions aud
very wisely have not made anything
public until the beginning Of work
made publicity a matter of course.
The need of an ore shed at the old
smelter in lola has been felt for
long time and the company has az
last begun the erection of one. Along
the north half of the main building
on the east side the frame work lie
| up for a shed IiO feet long and go feet
wide 1t is a heavy frame and the
| floor will be level with the car doors.
This will mean that the ore after
| leaving the care will not emerge into
the open air again until in the form
of zinc plates.
with TIE Lanyon works the new
company acquired the right to use
all the patent machinery which the
canyons controlled and machine
kiln will therefore be built at the
north works. The former proprietors
were restrained from using the pat
ent, but the new company owns the
patent. The kiln will be built near
the place where the old hand kilns
stood, one of the latter perhaps being
torn down.
The Company has also solved the
water problem once and for all. A
pipe line will be put in at once con-
, Meeting the works with the river. A
: fine 25.horse power engine has been
purchased and 80, 900 feet of six-inch
pipe. The engine will be capable of
throwing 25O,0O gallons every twenty
four hours and the supply thus af-
forded will be ample for all the pur-
= poses of the two works at lola and for
fire protection. There is enough pipe
1 on hand and the line may be extend
9 ed to the LaHarpe works.
n All of which indicates, ladies and
gentlemen, that the Lanyon Zinc
i Company is laying broad founda-
D ton, and on that firm foundation rests
g a corner of Iola's prosperity.

Live Stock Market.

Kansas City, Mo, May 24th, 1899.
Heavy fat steers continue to sell at
disappointing prices. We have sold

spread between the two grades of cat

market at the present time. There
seems to be more of an abundance of
heavy cattle in the country than was
figured on 30 days ago; but If the
liberal receipts Of this kind continue,
we think they will grow scarce by
the first days of July when better
prices ought to prevail.
1t is wonderful how well the price

The Raccalamreate.

Following the good old custom the
various churches of lola joined sun
day in a union Baccalaureate service
IN honor of the High School class of
1899. The service was held at eleven
o'clock at the Opera House, which
was crowded so that many people
were unable to get even standing
room and were obliged to go away.
The sermon was delivered by Rev.
A. b. Bruner, of the NJ. f.. church,
and was strong and able discourse,
full of encouragement and inspiration
for the young people for whose
special instruction and admonition ii
was prepared. success in Life" was
the general topic of the sermon and
the REGISTER regrets its facilities dc
not admit of its publication in full
for any synopsis would not do justice
to the clear, vigorous, logical thought
of the address. 1t was nearly al
hour in length and held the un
wearied attention of the great aud
fence to the last word,
Rev. Leonard and Rev. Klinkel
assisted in the services, and the
music, very excellent music, wa
furnished by the Methodist choir.

What nobler, better ambition can a young
couple have than to live loving, helpful
lives, and then, in a green old age, look
back over a life that has been mutually
self-sacrifcing, useful and successful The
one great stumbling block that stands be-
tween most married couples and this ideal
married career is ill-health. If both hus-
band and wife would take proper care of
their health, there would be more hale,
hearty and happy old people in the world.
If, when a man suffers from the little ills
of life, he will resort to DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery the chances are that he
will avoid the big and fatal illnesses. This
great medicine gives a man a healthy
hunger, facilitates the flow of digestive
juices, invigorates the liver, puri6es and
enriches the blood and builds firm, muscu-
lar, healthy flesh tissue.
It is an old saying that women are hard
to kill There is some truth in this, as far
as the majority of illnesses are concerned.
There is one class of disorders, however
that quickly undermine any womau's gen
eral health. No woman can retain her
strength who suffers from weakness and
disease of the delicate and important or
gaus that make wifehood and motherhood
possible. DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton is an unfailing cure for all disorders
of this description. II acts directly on the
sensitive organs concerned, in a natural,
soothing way 1t makes them strong,
healthy and vigorous. 1t prepares them
to bear the burdens Of maternity. IL is
the greatest of nerve tonics. The woman
who uses it will bear healthy, happy child
rem, and live to a ripe ola age.
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets regulate
and invigorate the stomach, liver and
bowels. By all medicine dealers.

A Card From Mrs. Goshorn.

EDITOR REGISTER:-In referring
to the fire in Mrs. Dougherty's mil
linery store Friday night, the Record,
on Saturday, in speaking of my stock
of millinery, says: "Her goods are
damaged by smoke and water, and
handling some, but otherwise they
are all right"
AS the fire was confined to Mrs.
Dougherty's room, and my store
room was two doors north of this,
neither smoke nor water was in or
about my goods at anytime, and
they are just as free from damage on
this account as if the fire had not
occurred, or the millinery stores were
in other parts of the city. My stock
of millinery is amply protected by
insurance, but having suffered no
loss or damage from smoke or water,
have no such claims to make
against the company. My goods
might have been left in safety where
they were, but in removing, hastily,
some were totally damaged by being
crushed and tramped upon, and are
not offered for sale at any price
AS the false statement in the RECORD
does me not only an uncalled fol
injustice, but has the effect of injur
ing my business, kindly publish
this and oblige
Mrs. j. b. GosHoRN.

Brief but vitality Important.

One of the shortest letters which
have been received from any OF the

recently received by an lola mother
from her son. The letter ran as
