DENMARK FIXES A PRICE.

Danish West indies.

Danish West indies.
New York, April 1. A gentleman
prominently connected in an official
way with Danish affairs made a state
ment with regard to the negotiations
for the purchase by the United States
Of the Danish West indies. The state
ment is prefaced with the remark that

saws Denmark will positively not part
with her possessions in the West In.
dies for the sum Of S3000,000; that it
has not agreed to do so and never will.
Denmark asks certain price, says the
statement and it gives to the United
States representative, Henry White,
secretary of the American embassy at
London. its reasons for asking that
price. When Mr.. White opened the
negotiations he was told that Il reason
abe price from the United States might
be considered if the negotiations and
eventually the treaty would be sure
of ratification at the present session OF
the United States congress. The state
ment says that Mr.. White was frankly
told that the islands were financial
burden upon the shoulders of Denmark
and that the Danish government would
fix a price upon the basis of the present
Indebtedness of the islands to the
mother country. This price, it is said,
was between four and five millions. A
strong sentiment against selling the
islands has sprung up in Denmark and
so forcible have been the protests that
the king and assembly officially an
nOunced that if the United States
should fail to avail themselves of the
propositions already made he would
promise that the islands should not be
sold.

ENSIGN IRWIN r. Lands.
Saturdays Press Dispatches Report That He
Has Been Captured By the FiIipinos at
Torriios

The press dispatches of Saturday say
that Ensign Irwin +. Lands has either
been captured in an engagement be-
tween the American forces and the Fill
ipinos at Torrijos or that he, with other
naval officers, has been lost. Irwin was
recently transferred from the Scandal
to the Gunboat Villabos, and went
with Co. F, 10Th regiment. to Torrijos
The entire company is supposed to
have been captured.
The news Is severe blow TO Mr..
Landis' friends here among whom be
grew to manhood. In many instances
the Filipinos inflict the most horrible
torture on prisoners sud if this report
is true great fears are entertained for
the result. There were two other Of.
ficers of the Villabos with him.
We hope that the report will prove
untrue and that Ensign Lands will
escape the terrible misfortune. Not a
citizen in Barber county or the state of
Kansas who would not hang his head
in sorrow should any harm come to this
noble young American aud distinguish
ed Kansan while rendering such valua-
BILE service to his country.

ROBERT D. SIMPSON.

A cloud OF gloom has again been cast
over this community by the invasion of
death into another one of our best fam.
lilies. On Friday morning, September
%, 1900, Robert D. Simpson passed
away at the age of 81 years, 8 months
and q days.
Uncle Bob, as he was favorably
known, was one of the pioneer settlers
or this county and has passed through
all the trials of misfortune incident to
settling up a new country. He was
veteran in the civil war, having en-
listed in Co. E, 18th Ill. vol. infantry.
For several years he was a sufferer
from kidney trouble and when the at
tack came on Sunday before his death,
his family and friends realized the end
was near. The funeral services were
held on Saturday under the direction
of the G. A. R., of which he was an
honored and beloved member.
Mr.. Simpson is survived Nv a wife
and three grown children. Mrs. A. T..
Mckay, of Anthony, and Warren and
Clayton Simpson of this count y. The
people of this city and vicinity feel
deeply the loss they have sustained in
the death of so valuable q citizen and
they extend sincere sympathy to the
bereaved relatives.
The following resolutions were ad-
opted by Eldred Post of this city:
WHEREAS: Eldred Post No. ia, Dept. of
Kansas, G. A. r., has again been bereft and
it's ranks broken, this time by the death of our

Whereas a stricken wife and children are

the removal of him who SO long had been a
kind husband and father. and
Whereas, in the General Order of our Great
Commander we all realize that we too will
soon be detailed TO appear at the great re-
view,
Therefore, resolved: LIST. That a brave SOL
der, good citizen and faithful comrade
has fallen from our ranks.
Resolved, 2nd, that as battle SCARED, foot
sore. and weary comrades, we set our house
in order for we shall die and not live.
Resolved, 3rd, as members OF this Post, we
remember cur obligation to look after and
cheer the life of the widow who is left to
mourn and await further orders.
Resolved, 4th, that a copy of these words of
| coincidence be presented to the family of our

w. c. T. U. COLUMN.

Conducted by the Ladies of the W. c. T. VI
Adjutant General Corbin has written
an official defense of the army canteen.
This military adjunct. as is generally
known, is saloon conducted by the
officers and soldiers of an army encamp.
ment or post. The stronger intoxl-
cants are not handled. Spurious llqu-
ors are prohibited and the sales are
limited to beer. 1t would be interest
ing to know how the brewers got ahead
of the distillers in the enactment Of this
discriminating rule. Nc donbt the bene-
ficiaries Of the system took lively part
in its adoption. and will bend their ELL.
ergies to protect 1t against prohibition
lists who would abolish the canteen and
against distillers who would like to get
their goods into this profitable market.
In justifying the canteen. Corbin says
that since the adoption there have been
fewer courtmartiais and few assertions
and better health. Omitting spurious
liquors and coming down to malt has
been found a great help. In other
words reducing the amount of alcohol
in the canteen beverage has been found
highly beneficial to decipline, health
and morals. Now most men would
reason right on in straight line that a
further reduction In the alcoholic ele-
ment would bring larger benefit, but
General Corbin does not seem to have
become acquainted with that sort of
mental operation, and hence he con.
cludes that, since beer does not kill as
many soldiers as does whiskey, we
ought to sell beer to the soldiers.
