Bob williams Apple Crop.

Congressman Bob Williams. of the
Twentieth district, has struck a fruit
full wave of prosperity this season,
but neither Mark Hanna nor McKin-
ley had anything to do with creating
it. ACarmi paper gives the facts as
follows:
Judge j. r Williams sold 1850 bar
rels of Ben Davis apples from his or
chard, four miles west of town, at
$3.50 per barrel, and has $50 barrels
of winesaps for the home market;
l 500 barrels of the Ben Davis were
gathered from 80 acres OF ground
which brought SLIPS cash per acre
for this years crop of apples. About
forty men were employed for a month
ut good wages, harvesting and hand
ling the fruit. Mr.. Williams attrib-
utes his best results to spraying his
trees, to prevent the ravages of per-
nicious insects. He sprayed but
once last spring. having been him
dered by rains. Having become an
enthusiast on the subject of spraying
he will attend to the matter more fully
in the future, even if the work has to
be repeated between showers"

The situation in Idaho at Rnckefel-
ler's mines seems to be about as bar
barous as anything our rude ancestors
possessed. To he sure at this dis
lance nothing comes from personal
knowledge further than this, that
some very good men have gone over
there to look the situation over and
have brought away gloomy reports.
The following is about an average:
In Idaho martial law still prevails
and men are forced to work for the
trusts at the point of the bayonet in
the hands of our regular troops. AT
night the workmen are herded in
bull PEN or stockade, and refusal
to work or protest against their treat
ment means the bavonet and an I'M
known grave. Women who 90 TO the
pull pen to see their husbands are
grossly insulted by the black soldiers
without reprimand from their officers.
and the houses of these wurkmen's
wives have been broken and entered
on the vilest of missions by these
same black guardians of the peace
without official notice taken of the
crimes.
The actual condition of affairs in
Idaho cannot be stated in paragraph
nor in many columns of print. 1t
could not be put into print at all, for
il is too horrible. II would not be
credited by most readers. 1t would
sound like tale of the sack of con-
quered country in the middle ages. a

Question Answered.

Yes. August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought of using
anything else for indigestion or bill
iousness. Doctors were scarce, and
they seldom heard of appendicitis,
nervous prostration or heart failure,
etc. They used August Flow
er TO clean out the system and stop
fermentation of undigested food. reg
ulate the action of the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of the
system. and that is all they took when
feeling dull and bad with headaches
and other aches. You only need a
few doses of Green's August Flower
in liquid form, to make you satisfied
there is nothing serious the matter
with you. Sample bottles free at T. II.

ST. MARTIN DAYS.

She is a woman past her prime.
Yet age has left her still as fair
As when with roses IN her hair,
She knew life's golden summer time.
Her smile more sweet for fallen tears,
Her heart grown kinder since II learned
The grieis that marred, the pain that burned
The disappointment Of the years
Call her not old whose lips speak
So tenderly TO those oppressed.
Call her not old within whose breast
The Ioyeless find the love they seek
For now, with holy purpose rife,
She scatters incense, balm and myrrh,
Until know these are for her
The blest st. Martin days of life.

with a couple of cattlemen, and we
naturally gravitated to the only resort

and gambling house, in rough one
story building, containing good sized
single room.
THE bar was on one side, and on
the other were two or three Mexican
monte tables, over each of which were
several large coal oil lamps in wall
brackets. In the center of the place
was chandelier containing three
more, altogether giving a good deal OF
light We were sitting at one side
smoking and talking, when in rushed
half a dozen drunken cowboys, headed
by a we'll known ranchman named
Bill Wells.
THE crowd were out for excitement
and didn't care how they got it. They
took several drinks and then clustered
around one of the monte tables. In
few moments Wells insisted upon max
ing n bet over the limit, TO which the
dealer objected. If you don't turn for
that bet, I'll shoot out your blankety
blank lights" bawled the ranchman.
The leemit eZ feety dollar said the
Mexican dealer, and the words were no
sooner out of his mouth than Wells
and his gang pulled their six shooters
aDd began blazing away at the lamps.
About p or 80 shots were fired, and
almost at the outset the place was in
complete darkness. OF course there
was a stampede. but 1 remember being

ing the first two innings and re-
tiring.
In the first inning the visitors
went to bat and went out one, two,
three; Vinita did trifle better,
Meredith getting as far as second
base. In the second neither side
scored; "Spider" reaching third
for the home team, and Tinker got
to second for the visitors. In the
third Howell and Check scored
for Coffeyville on child-like
throw by Little, which Howell
placed over behind the out field,
bringing in Check from second.
This was the only scoring done by
Coffeyvile during the game. In
thsir end of the third Vinita scored
one; also one in the fourth, two in
the fifth, three in the sixth, one in
the seventh, and were shut out in
the eighth, leaving them half
