Within the green cathedral aisles
The winds are whispering 'mong Tn
leaves,
And natures face is wreathed in smiles.
The sunlight in mosaic weaves
gorgeous pattern meath our feet,
And summer days are fair and sweet.
No pride or pomp in Mammon's piles
Can match these old cathedral aisles.
The birds are chanting songs OF praise
And music murmurs In the trees,
For in these quiet woodland ways
The choristers arc birds and bees;
The flowers with incense fill the air,
And natures priests her vestments wear.
In forest, free from human guiles,
Are rear'd those grand cathedral aisles.
The city teens with restless life,
And tapering steeples bear the CROSS
A symbol Of the Christians strife
Through all the years Of gain and loss.
So ever upward point the trees
And wave their plumes in every breeze.
To lure the wanderer miles and miles
Within tho green cathedral aisles.

COUNTY EXAMINATION.
OF Applicants for Admission to the
Dickinson County High School

10 the 1edCRerS uiW InPtto'
There will be an examination OF
applicants for admission to Dickinson
county high school held March 18th
at the following places: City hail.
Abilene; Bonaccord; Chapman; Ban
ner; Navarro; Talmage; Sutphen's
Mill, Dist. SO. There will be two
sets Of questions-one tor admission
to the preparatory year, and one Tor
advanced standing. For the first,
admission to preparatory year, an
average Of 70 per cent will be requlr-
ed with minimum Of 60 per cent;
that is to say, no one will be admit
ted who does not average ~ per
cent, or fails to make grade of 90
per cent in any one branch, Those
taking examination for advanced
standing must make grade in each
branch Of so per cent, in order to
get credit for same at the high school.
Anyone desiring to take the exami-
nation for advanced standing in any
one branch may do so whether he
takes the remainder of the examine
ton or not. Paper will be furnished
All the applicant needs is good pen
c,l and eraser. 1t is not advisable
for teachers to encourage pupils,
whom they do not think can pass to
take the examination, as it only DIS
cburages the pupils and makes extra
work for the examiners. Examlna-
ton will open at half past eight a. M
and close at half past five P, M at
which time all papers will be
taken up.
Local Government and Orthog'
raphy will be required for those TAX
ing advanced standing, but will moi
be included in the examination fol
admission, We hope that a large
number of the pupils in the schools
of the county will take the examlna
ton and enter the high school. Tit
school is there waiting for them. Th'
parents have the expenses OF TN
school to pay and should see to j
that their children get the advan
tages it offers. A good education i

DENIED A RECElvERsHIP.
Gillett Case Remains in Its Present
Form.

The matter OF receivership for
another lot Of Gillett cattle was heard
Thursday at Emporia by Judge Ran
dolph. The case is that Of the Third
National bank Of Springfield, against
G. G. Gillett and all his creditors.
The receiver is wanted for 1900 head
of the j. A. L. brand in Lyon and
Chase counties. These cattle are on
the Harrington, Brogan, Ross, Plumb,
Sherman and McHenry ranches in
two counties. The bank asks for a
receiver. charging that the cattle are
not being PRO erly cared for. The
defendants have the cattle on their
ranches and have a lien on them for
the feed and the men who have mort
cages on them say that the cattle are
in the best OF condition and II the
two counties were searched over no
better, more honest stockmen could
be found than the ones who now have
the cattle in charge. They contend
that receiver will be a useless cost.
This case was in the United States
court at Topeka. 1t was driven from
there to the lower court. The hear
ing lasted the entire morning. Judge
Randolph then denied the asked for
receiver and left the present order OF
injunction in force until the case
come, up for final hearing, which
will be at Cottonwood Falls in the
March term of the district court.
