It amuses us to see some of our broth
er pencil pushers squirm in an attempt to
offend nobody. The editor who can
please everyone is not tit for this earth,
but is entitled to wings. Human nature
is so constituted that some like scandal,
some don't; some like to see others rip
ped up the back, others don't; some like
to see fakes exposed, others don't; some
like the truth told about them, others
don't; some like to take their paper seven
or eight years and never miss an issue or
pay cent and get mad and stop their
paper when they get a statement OF their
account, others don't. 1t is some cODsola-
ton to know that the Lord himself failed
to please everybody while on earth.

GIRLS ON A coon EUNT.
n humber Of Them Have Great Fur
TrampinE About Through
Swamps.

The young women here have discov,
cred new kind of sport, which is moth
ing more nor less than coon hunting.
They have been out twice within =
week, and had no end Of fun in tramp
ing round through the woods and
swamps at midnight and later hunting
the cunning coon. They engaged tho
services of an experienced hunter, who
has had wide experience in hunting
big game in the Rocky mountains, and
knows all the haunts of the wild an
imals in this vicinity. Four young
women started out under this famous
hunters guidance about ten O'Clock q
few nights ago. They Wore rubber
boots and their shortest and oldest
golf skirts. After they had tramped
through the swaInps and over the steep,
rocky hills for three miles the hounds
freed a coon. The hunters managed
matters so cleverly that each girl in
turn had a chance to blaze away at it,
and there has been dispute ever since
as to which of the young women
brought the creature down. says the
New York Journal.
Not satisfied with this, they went out
again few nights ago, but thought it
would be more fun to have a few young
men with them; so they enlarged the
party, with TIE old coon hunter for
chaperone. They managed this time. by
staying out until two o'clock in the
morning. to get two 'coons. On their
way back one of the girls got stucl: so
fast in the mud that she had to be pulled
out by the united strength OF several
of her friends. The sport will be con-
tinued with n large hunt some time
next week, when the coon hunter will
have party of about 90. He will di-
vide them up into squads. giving a
hound to each squad, and see which
party will have the best success.

HE DID GREAT THINGS.
And Then Jimmy Told His FatheI
All About His Exciting
Adventures.

"What kind of time are you having
this summer, Jimmy?"
''Oh, out of sight! The family all
away. Father was the last to go. He
went north on business and left me to
take care Of the house. Oh, yes, I'm
strong on that, you know. Haven't
been there since he left. That makes
me think I'd better go around tonight
he's due to-day"
James was right. His father had re-
turned and was sitting on the porch
smoking a cigar when his son arrived,
says the Detroit Free Press.
"Well, how have you been getting
along for the last week?" inquired the
father.
"Oh, very we'll, considering" said
James, assuming the confident air of
the man who has done his duty. "a few
accidents about the house, but fixed
them all right"
"Yes?"
"Yes-had the burglars one night.
Lucky thing I was here-they might
have stolen half the house. And the
gas pipe sprung a leak, too. But dis
covered that in time. And the rats!
Why, we'd have been overrun with 'em
if hadn't been here to clean them out!"
"Hm! that's strange" said his father.
II haven't heard any burglars, nor
smelled any gas, nor heard any rats,
and I've been here all the week. You
know, 1 didn't take that business trip
after ALL"

Ed Turner Still In Prison.

From the wichita Eagle.
Ed Turner, formerly q Missouri
Pacific engineer, running between
Wichita and Ell Dorado, is still in
Jail at Oraziba, Mexico, with no better
show for his release than when be
first wrote his wife in this city last
summer. He claims that the Mex.
can authorities will not give him q
trial, but persist in keeping him in
prison without a hearing or chance
to prove his innocence or secure
counsel. Turner succeeded, through
the Intervention Of friends, in getting
the United States authorities to In
tervene in his behalf, but it seems
that they have not been able to do
anything for him. Since he secured
their intervention another engineer
has bean incarcerated in this same
prison, and he writes to his wife here
that there are now four American en-
gineers confined in the Oraxibs pri-
son, and that their condition Il b.

route to the mountains for use on the
Santa Fe. The engine was pulling a
train and the headlight was in opera :

Wants Prohibition Abolished.

Wants Prohibition Abolished.
From the wichita Eagle.
Albert Griffin writes in the Mail
and Breeze in favor of abolishing
prohibition. He has been lifelong
temperance agitator. and in the early
days was one of the most bitter and
proscriptive. Of prohibitionists. He
says that when he was at work in the
interest of the anti-saloon league he
oanvassed twenty three States, and he
says he found that the liquor power
has grown everywhere and that the
drink habit was spreading. He says
that from Is to IS per cent Of men
and from 80 to 60 per can't Of women
drink. He lays the blame on the
fact that legal suasion had taken the
place almost entirely Of moral suasion
that under prohibition the latter
has BEEN practically abandoned.

The prince of Wales, while shooting
in Austria, caused temporary trouble
and ultimately made the fortune of the
nearest ladies' tailor, by STIMULATING
that all ladies receiving invitations to
shoot with him should come in correct
shooting costumes. This, in Austria,
consists of a short skirt coming half
way between the knees and ankle and q
short, tight-ftting jacket, with waist
coat of another color. boots of brown
leather and Tyrolese hat with feath-
er. None of the ladies had just these
clothes at hand, and the tailor had to-
double his force to supply them.

Perhaps the handsomest features Of
this great array of fruit producers are
the apple, cherry and apricot plois.
These lusty and picture like trees are all
ten years old standing in perfect rows
l6x2O feet. all having arrOw-like trunks
and nicely rounded tops. The trunks are
kept trimmed to a highth of four feet,
and all show that smooth, oily condition
indicating perfect health.
The same methods and same care are
the governing force in the owners treat
ment of all other branches of this
orchard.
1t is an industry within itself, and is
the basis for snug fortune as we'll as a
life of contentment and happiness to its
owner. No matter how poor the fruit
season, the great diversity of stock in
sures Mr.. Beck harvest of profit for the
labor expended.
No Missouri Pippins were ever grown
east of the hundredth meridian that have
the delicious flavor that the apples OF
this orchard possess, and no horticulturist
ever produced larger on more delicious
raspberry. They are products Of the
slimate-nurtured by the soil and sun.
The big plum of the Turks grows for
him larger and more luscious than in it's
native home, and his apricots have the
same transparent hue Of yellow that
mark the best grades Of the California
product. OF all the features of this
orchard one might write columns in de-
scription, and still there would be more
to tell.

A Topeka Capital reporter called
on the merchants of the capitol city
and interviewed them in regard to
the advance Of commodities. All
things that we use have advanced
rapidly IN price dnring the past few
weeks. The increase ranges from 10
to 100 per cent. The trusts are
largely held responsible, and the ad
vance in prices of commodities is due
mostly to the probing of the big man
ufacturers for their own profit.
They say that the prosperous con-
dition Of the people has created a
great demand for goods and the
heavy operators have taken advantage
of their opportunity to make money
fast. These operators have formed
trusts and associations all over the
country which control practically
everything that is sold to the people.
In some cases, the dealers say, a
trust will Save a corner on a certain
class of goods and absolutely control
the price. The wire and nail trust,
for example, has put up the price of
its product 100 per cent. In other
cases there is what the local dealers
call concert of action" among the
heavy operators, resulting in grad
ual and uniform advance in prices.
''The prices of manufactured arti-
cles have gone skyward," said mer-
chant, cat rate in most instances
that is out Of all proportion to the
cost of the raw material. Those who
contend that the present high prices
are the result of a sudden increasing
demand can not, try as they will, ex-
plain away that fact. Cotton goods,
such as musiins and sheetings, have
advanced Is per cent in an incredibly
short time, while the price of the raw
cotton in New Orleans was not for a
long time (up to few days ago.
changed perceptibly."
A Topeka merchant pulled this ar
gument on a manufacturer when buy
ing goods few days ago and the
latter was stumped for an answer
He admitted finally that the manu-
facturers were pooling to bull the
market, that they might share in the
general increase in prices for the re-
tail trade, while all the time they are
getting the raw material at q figure
which did not show anything like q
proportional increase.
Every person admits that there is
an unusual demand for goods because
Of the general fact that money
is plentiful and that times are
good. But there is danger that the
continued high prices may curtail the
demand, and it is this that is
making the retail merchant who buys
largely, walk the floor at night in
anxiety.
Prices have advanced on paper and
other material required in print
shops. Print paper that year ago

that it 10 difficult to get it even then.

A Ford County Farm and Orchard.

To these who are Interested IN the
growth and development of Western
Kansas along all tho lines practicable, no
subject will more forcibly engage their
attention than fruit growing. This seems
so utterly chimerical and visionary after
the school geograpyh's ''Great American
Desert" the surveyors of the Interior
Department plotting it on their field notes
as ''buffalo range, only" and cattlemen
echoing the cry with single word
changed-s'cattle range, only!" that it is
like man convinced against his will to
note the facts presented by few orchards
out in this country, more particularly in
Ford county, and still more exactly on
the farm of w. H. Beck, three miles
north Of Spearville.
1t has passed into proverb that he
who makes one blade of grass grow
where one grew before is benefactor to
the human race.
This may be a very satisfying attain
ment in narrow.guage philanthropy. but
when broad minded Kansas man starts
out to confer a real benefi. upon the
country and upon his posterity he isn't
lining up the foundation with blades Of
grass. His ideal is something grander,
more enduring and more likely to link
his name and fame into the golden chain
Of those good deeds which live after
their doors are dead.
Neither does practical utility demand
that these foundations be laid in stone,
or in iron, or in brass. What good is now
rendered the human family by the great
pyramid, the sphinx, or BY any Of the
ancient works of art.of nations or of in
dividuals? Mostly they are monuments
Of mans greed for power and pelf. The
humblest builders often build the best.
Benefieence chooses often the sim
plest means for the grandest achieve
ments, and she made no mistake in choos-
ing MIR. Beck to show the world that to
make the ''desert blossom as the rose" is
no mere figure of speech.
Fourteen years ago Mr.. Beck settled

Gently shows the victory of honest toll.
As elsewhere in the vast area of Western

tutor and his lessons were learned in the
books Of steadfast application and yigor-

During the first three years of sovsr.

AGAIN A SOLDIER
WaIfer Gregory on His Way to Inc
 Philippines.

Walter Gregory is again in the ser vice of the United States. A letter re- ceived from him yesterday dated from San Francisco, Jan. 30, stated that he had enlisted in the Fourth U. s. cav airy, which would sail for the Philip pines on the following day It is not precisely known where he enlisted, !, but presumably at Fort Grant, for he was last heard from in that part of the territory while on trip for the PhOe- nix Herald Or rather he was last heard from at Globe. He writes that he believes he will make a better soldier than a newspaper man, hence his adoption of a career of arms. He had made very good record in PhOe- nix as q wide awake newspaper re- porter and was a good writer. He re- ceived his first taste of military life as a member of the Colorado National Guard, during the Cripple Creek war, six years ago and saw exciting service at Bull Hill in maintaining the all thority Of Governor Waite.
 ~ When Roosevelt's Rough Riders were being organized Gregory was among the first if not the very first man of that famous regiment enrolled. He became member Of B troop and took an active part in the battles be- fore Santiago, from the fight at Las rGuasimas to the bloody conflict at San Juan hill and what was more dis dressing, he lay in the tiresome trenches after the last active encoUnt- CT until the surrender of TOral. He was missed by all Spanish bullets and more nearly than any other Arizona member of the regiment, escaped the fever which was sent with more uner- ring aim than the bullets. He was promoted to corporal and for some time before the regiment was called back from Cuba he was acting guar termaster sergeant. Corporal Gregory received the especial praise of his superior officers. which meant great deal, since none of the regiments were towards or .aggardS.
