A u

A factory for the manufacture of
trunks is now an accomplished tact in
Butte, and adds one more link to the
chain of home industries. The rapidly
growing trade in runks enjoyed by the
Brownfield CAVITY Co. of AZ to 81 West
Park street, has led this enterprising
firm to arrange for the manufacture of
it's own runks Ample floor space, a
complete stock Of kiln dried lumber, trim
mings, covers, of all desirable kinds, and
the supervision of a competent foreman,
enable them to make to your order with
"a hours notice a better trunk than you
can find elsewhere in Butte. A saving
of the large sums paid for freight on east
ern made trunks make it possible for
them to save o from one to five dollars
on a trunk. They ave marked all of
their eastern trunks at cost n less to
close them out, and for purposes of COM
parison have placed beside them a line
of samples of their own make to which
they invite the attention of all who would
save money and patronizehome industry.

FORT SCOTS TRIUMPH.

Topeka may learn some things from
Fort Scott. The Populist and Demo-
cratic conventions which were in session
there this week demonstrated that Fort
Scott can rise to any emergency. This
little city of only about $4,000 people, in
accessible from the rest of the state,
took care of these two big conventions
in manner that deserves commenda-
ton.
When the Populists decided to meet
in Fort Scott there was not even the
semblance of a convention hall. Some
thing had to be done and the young
men who secured the convention went
home and began their work They Sc
cured subscriptions and began the con
struction of a convention hall which
would be a credit to any city in Kan
sas. While the exterior could not be
called an architectural triumph the in
terror is admirably suited to a political
convention. The hall cost about $4,000.
These same young men, j. T. Shep-
pard, Mayor c. w. Goodlander and J.
F. Letton, proprietor OF the Goodlander
hotel then began making their plans
for the entertainment of the visitors.
Rooms were secured to use after the
hotel facilities were exhausted and a
hundred other little things were done
There was large crowd in Fort Scott
but every one found a good place to
sleep. The hotel rates We're not in
creased and Sheppard, Goodlander and
Lection moved among the visitors pat
ting them the back and trying to
make them feel at home. There We're
others who contributed to the entertain
ment of the guests but these men were
the prominent figures.
Convention hall was deliberately dec
GRATED, bands were hired and as a Re
publican member of the executive COM
mittee expressed it, Every one in Fort
Scott was a fusionist'' while the visitors
We're there.
These meetings demonstrated what
can be done by men with push and
energy even in a small city. The Wis
itors at Fort Scott left with a good
impression of the city and of the people.
The Investment was good one and To-
peka will do we'll to make a few in
vestments of a similar nature

IMPROVING THE CITY.

Topeka can be beautified. Topeka peo-
pie can be the means. If the business
men Of the city would contribute as
the business men of other cities have
done the small parks and public places
might be ornamented and improved and
the people benefited.
Liberal donations have been made to
the hospitals and educational institu
tons by philanthropists able to give
large amounts and such gifts have been
of great benefit. Smaller gifts can be
made that will do as much good in pro-
portion When the Rev. Charles NJ. Shell
don gave the city a drinking fountain.

station he gave comparatively but a
small sum of money but by his thought
fulness he gave what will refresh hun
dreds Of people daily. 1t Will stand as a
monument in memory Of the donor al
though there is no inscription to show
who gave it.
The late Col. Cyrus K. Holiday decided
to the city the small plat Of ground
which is known as Holiday park. The
park has been beautified and brightens
that part Of town. Col Joel Hnntoon
donated to the city the park which bears
his name. Such donations help to make
Topeka a better city. Other donations
Of small plats of ground, monuments
more drinking fountains and gifts of a
similar nature can be made that will do
a vast amount Of good There are scores
Of business men in the city able to make
SUCH gifts to the city and many would
willingly do go if they had pointed out
to them an opportunity.

THE VACATION SEASON.

At this season of the year when the
weather is warm, business dull and so
ciety at standstill, many people have
a longing for a change of scenery. The
summer vacation becomes the import
ant topic of the hour
Some people say that to keep cool
and contented during the hot weather it
is necessary to keep busy, but as rule
the people who give such advice are the
ones who have little to do except pur-
sue the phantom comfort
The places and ways of spending the
summer vacation are legion Few peo-
pie think it possible to remain at home
though that is often the most COM
Portable place to be found.
Many people save their money eleven
months out of the year in order to
spend the twelfth one at a fashionable
summer resort where they willingly put
up with discomforts that they would
scarcely endure at home
Some spend their time in travelling
and sight seeing, while Others go to the
mountains, lakes or seashore where they
may be free to dress comfortably with
out frills and -furbelows demanded at a
fashionable resort; where they may fish.
boat, battle and indulge in all out door
sports from which they return rested
and ready to take up the routine of
every day work.
To most people the last course would
seem the most sensible and inviting
but it really matters little where or how
the vacation is spent. A change Of
scenery and atmosphere are the vital
points and in many cases save big doc

4 GENEROUS CITIZEN.

The bronze drinking fountain given to
Topeka by the Rev. Mr.. c. NJ Sheldon
is now in place at a populous city cor
ner where the thirsty passerby can
queneh a desire for water at all hours
of the day or night.
This charitable donation of the re-
spected pastor certainly contributes
much comfort to the shoppers, passers-
by and those compelled to wait for
street cars at the transfer station This
is always a busy corner and no more
suitable site could have been chosen
Ice placed in an underground box,
keeps the water cool.
The fountain is substantial and of a
well chosen design and a credit to the
donor
This is not the first time Topeka has
had occasion to be thankful to Mr.. Shell
don for his interest in and charity
towards the city. In a modest humble
manner, in years past, he has expended
time and money in making brighter and
more cheerful the lives and homes of
colored citizens in that portion of To-
peka known as 'sTennesseetown.'
The efforts put forth in this territory
were not in vain as anyone who is
familiar with the situation wen knows
Today the habits and morals Of the
C1I1ZeIlS OF T16lDeSSGELOWn are Vastly
improved over the conditions existing
before he began his crusade of enIight-
eminent
Another work of Mr. Sheldon,s for
which he is entitled to the thanks of
the community. is his interest in the
homeless wanderer that reaches the po-
lice station. A goodly sum was donated
for a detention hospital in connection
with the city jail so thatthe less harden
ed and younger criminals may not be
placed in contact with the older rogue
and thus soon be made beyond par
dom
The proceeds of this charity were
largely receipts from Mr.. Sheldon's
week of newspaper editing and while
there is some difference of opinion as
to the success of the applied journals
tic methods there is not the slightest
division of sentiment as to the WORTH
ness of the disposal of his portion of the
receipts.
Man dies but his memory lives.
So the Christian works of Rev. Mr..
Sheldon will endure in the memory of
Topeka citizens long after his remains
shall have crumbled to dust.
The bronze drinking fountain will be
an hOnored monument ever present in
the thoughts of the passing citizen.

BETHANY COLLEGE.
The Great and Growing Institution at
Lindsborg.

We take pleasure in calling attention
to the great college of central Kansas:
Bethany of Lindsborg, whose advertise
nlent covers the sixteenth page OF TINS
issue of the State Journal. Bethany mas
always believed in the efficacy OF print
er's ink combined with hard. earnest,
persevering toll. 1t is not the c9itege
for the boy girl, simply wishing TO
get through easily. At Bethany the stu
dent must work Only paying ana
great college. The student will have to
deserve his diploma, in order to get it
Parents and conscientious guardians
are mindful of this important fact
Bethany's musical reputation IS eStaD-
ished all over the country It is easily
the grea test musical school OF the state
Some people do not know that the col
lege proper, with the academy ana nor
mai adjuncts, ranks among the very
best in the land. Its diploma is recog-
nized without examination by the great
universities of the east and of Europe,
and in this state leads to life certih-
cate to teach.
Lindsborg itself is a pleasant, ideal
college town. One could not think OF a
place better suited for young, ambitious
students. The shaded streets, the
charming campus, the saIubrious climate,
the absence of saloons and gambling
resorts. all tend to make the city safe
and inviting for the boys and girls of
the great Sunf1oWer state
Bethany Is a large advertiser. Inc
college has a good thing to offer and
finds continually that 1t pays to let
the people know of it.
DR.. Swensson. the founder and presi-
dent, was offered fire position IN the
east, but has declined the call, and so
far that other college and seminary has
failed to Roosevelt him. Bethany has
in him an able, energetic and progress

Not long ago bids were called for by
a board for work to be done on a public
building. Topeka bidders all went
after it.
They figured close. All wanted the
contract. The day OF the letting one of
the bidders went over his figures and
decided he had bid too low. He raised
his bid 500 to be safe. Another bidder
heard that an out of town contractor
who has reputation for close bidding
was in town. He cut his bid an even
500 That night the bids were opened.
The man who won it was the one who
had lowered his bid He was $40 under
the out of town man. The man who
raised his bid was just $50 higher than
the man who lowered his bid, or, in
other words, if he had not raised his
bid 500 he would have received the
contract.
Never change your bid after you
have figured it OUT said the man who
had raised his, after the contract was
awarded.
Il wish I had changed Inine,'' said the
man who lost by $40.
Il think it is always well to bid just
a little bit lower" said the man who
won. And those who did not under
stand wondered why their views were
so much different.
