Preparing to Move.


ParkerSDurB Sen1lnel.
The officials about the court house
are preparing to move into other quar-
ters until the new building is complet-
ed. The county court secured the
front basement room in the new Citi-
zens Bank building several weeks ago
for the use Of the county and circuit
clerks, but 1t is the opinion that the
room is not sufficiently large for the
records and the working force of BOTH
Rooms in the second floor front have
been secured for the county court room
ard probably the circuit clerk will
have a portion of one of the rooms to
conduct business in. Rooms for hold
ing the terms of circuit and criminal
courts have been secured in the city
building. The court refused to furnish
Office room for Sheriff Wade, but it is
probable that he will secure room in
the Citizens Band building. No provis-
ion has yet been made for Prosecutor
Laird, and 1t lis probable that he will
also have to shift for himself.
According to the advertisement for
bids, bidders will have only ten days to
make estimates, etc, and contractors
say that the time is too brief to do it
thoroughly. Then the stipulation that
a certified check must be submitted
with each bid will be hardship on
some of the bidders.
We are informed that the court ex-
pect to have the building completed
within Is months, burt unere is no in
formation as to whether The payment
for the work will be cash down or on
time, but the inference from the ad-
vertisement is that it is cash.

Novel Disposition of Waste Matter

The efiiuents from the distillerles
along the river Spey in Scotland are
killing so many of the fish that the
question OF how to do away with the
pollution is eyoking much discussion.
One plan proposed the the deleterious
products of the distlllery be blown
high in the air in the form of mist Il
is asserted that the atmosphere would
not be injuriously affected in this way,
and that there would be no perceptible
increase in its moisture il the mist
were blown to a sufficiently great
height AT height of 200 feet. il is
calculated, about eight gallons OF the
objectionable liquid might be sprayed
into the air every minute without be-
ing noticed by the inhabitants of the
surrounding country.

A NEW SPRING DAY.

How rich and rare is the sweet pure air
OF a new spring day. 1t seems TO say
To the budding May,-awake, awake,
OF my joy partake. 1t seems TO shake
Into life the bowers. Then 1t tips the flowers
In the shady glen, and whispers them
That Spr ng is here. But they seem to fear
Lest lingering dew should bedim the blue
OF their tiny eyes. SO in mute surprise
They essay TO rise, and with half-op'ed eyes
They steal peep from their winter sleep.
And their fears all die in the clear blue sky,
AS the bluet's eye meets the bluest sky.
And the day is new, and the vale is blue.
A fair young maid seeks the shelt'ring shade
Seeks the shade, not alone, for another one,
Whose radiant eye shoots gleam OF Joy,
Is gently leading, and softly treading
With cautious feet, to the shaded seat.
No word they spake for fear twould break
The spell OF Love. They could not move,
And silence kept, as II they slept.
Oh silent themel Oh happy dreaml
The lovers say, Oh happy day
That sealed our love in shady grove,
Meath budding May, on New Spring Day
WILL CoULsoN.

FUNSTON OF KANSAS.
(Born in Ohio.)


Gee whlz,
What fighter that Funston is!
Funston of Kansas; he
Who, over yonder across the sea,
Out Philippine way,
Three trmes a Gay,
Grabs gun
And starts the rebs on run;
And he II fight
At night;
Or morning or evening or noon,
Or december or June,
Or any old time; he
Lives on fighting. See?
Eats it, sleeps with 1t, drinks 1t,
Thinks 1t,
But never talks 1t; just does it.Whoop!
And he's got a scoop
On the foe
He doesn't know
What it is not to go
After a reb when ones in sight,
Day or night.
And he'll swim a river,
Without shiver,
Through volley OF shot
That will make the water hotl
He's always in front, where
The circumambient air
lis chuck full OF lead,
But he keeps his head,
And in a minute or two
He's beating hullabaloo
On the rebs' coattails,
He never fails,
And he doesn't know
- nat 1t lis to go slow.
OF all the fighters, trained or raw,
Funstons the figbtnest they ever saw
Out in the Philippines, and
He's keeping right at 1t hand over hand
Kansas has her weaknesses; she may
Want to make currency out of hay
And many think a gold dollar OF two
Is a regular 16 to / hoodoo,
And she may grow whiskers on Popu-
lists chins,
But Funston covers a multitude of sins
Funston OF Kansas, him
That's a dandy Jim
In all kinds of scraps
With the Malay yaps;
Funston OF Kansas, let the cheers
OF the present and all the future years
Be given for him; let his name
Be high in the soldiers Temple of
Fame
Funston of Kansas; he is great,
The glory and pride Of the ounhOwer
State.

The doctor looked at her for NOM
ent wfch an expression ofmlngled inter
est and surprise, and then said: "Since
the services in all our churches are
practically uniform as to time, your
idea seems to me to be feasible"
The Hamlltonia Medical Association
met at ten o'clock that day, and when
the hour for meeting came, DR.. Brown
had become so enthused with Mrs.
Dempster's Idea that ne presented the
matter to that body and asked that it
be given serious consideration. His
mere statement of the plan called forth
such enthusiastic discussion that 1t re-
resulted In old DR.. Cleary presenting
the following resolution:
Resolved, That we, the members of
this Association, recognizing the mer-
Its of the plan submitted by Doctor
Brown, pledge ourselves as body and
as individuals to give 1t hearty sup
port"
The resolution was unanimously
adopted, and with the plan that called
ii forth, was published in the Hamil-
tonia Herald that evening
The following Thursday the City I'm
provement Society, after a most inter
esting debate in which every possible
objection to the proposed plan was
considered, adopted a similar resolu-
tion without a single dissenting voice
AT their next regular meeting the
Ministers Union declared in favor of
the chime and the members pledged
themselves to active work in It's be-
half. .t ia5
Thus the sentiment continued to
grow until fall when committee
of five were appointed to can
vass the town to see how
much money could be raised toward
carrying out the plan. The response
to their solicitation was so general
that no one was taxed heavily and yet
fund sufficiently large to secure
fir5t-class and sweet chime" was
quickly raised.
Acting on the suggestion found in
one of Sarah Gand's books, the peo-
pie of Hamiltonia had their chime
tuned to strain of Mendelssohn's
Elijah: "He watching over Israel,
slumbers not, nor sleeps"
They hung 1t in the tower of the city
hall, and the bells became fit relics of
past age which they had faithfully
served. And when the chime sends
out its message of comfort or warning,
according to the mental state of
those whose ears 1t flls," Eva Demp-
ster is always reminded of the sweet
music that greeted her on that Satur-
day night when she stood very near
the other shore, and noting the effect
Of the chime on the life OF ,-e city,
she speaks Of her near approach to
death as the blessed time when out of
her sore affiiction there came a great
and permanent blessing to Hamiltonia
and all who dwell therein.

on her. In this deranged state of mind
she left Gap Mills on the 9Th Of octo-

her trunk and other apparel behind.
She was seen in Ronceverte, boarding
the west bound train about II a. M,
October 6, since which time she has
not been heard from By her family or
friends.
Her husband, having exhausted ev-
cry effort to find any further trace OF
her, has now placed the matter In the
hands of detectives. and offers $500 re-
ward for her person. Mrs. Taylor Is
highly cultivated lady Of thirty-three
years OF age. Both she and her hus-
band belong to the best families Of
Kentucky. Her husband received af-
fectionate letters from her every day
during her entire absence from home
until October g. She is well known
magazine writer on scientific subjects.
Mrs. Taylor is the daughter of DR..
