Chaplain Settlements Lectures.

The Osborne Farmer says of IL e
chaplain's lecture:
Chaplain John G. Sohliemann. of
PhIlllpsburg, late of the famous
Twentieth Kansas regiment, which
distinguished itself so gallantly in
the Philippines, lectured in the opera
house Monday night on the subject,
''The Campaign of the Twentieth
Kansas From Start to Finish" The
attendance was small, far too small
when the quality of the lecture is
considered. The receipts were $1,000
| which just about paid expenses.
Chaplain Schliemann is a pleasant
talker and tells things in a straight
forward manner and in all fairness to
all parties concerned. The chaplain
YVES at the front during the entire
campaign of the famous regiment
and refutes the many silly, SANDER
Gus charges that have been made
against some of the head officers and
soldiers. The inhuman treatment of
the natives by the American soldiers
is entirely without foundation, as is
the exaggerated report of their i'm
mortality and drunkenness All who
heard him speak of the effort in the
highest terms and regret that more
did not hear him The lecture was
given under the auspices of the Bap-
tlst church. Chaplain Schliemann
went to Stockton on Tuesdays freight
where he lectured in the evening.

4 Blizzard.

Wednesday this section Of Kansas
was visited by a good old fashioned
blizzard. The past winter has been
so mild that our people hoped to es-
cape storms, but in this they are dis
appointed. A heavy fall of snow
driven by high wind filed railroad
cuts and delayed, trains for some
hours No. 8 put in the night one
and one-half miles east Of town. No.
10 WIS laid up at Clayton, and No 6
at Colby. Today the prospects are
that the storm is over. The mercury
dropped to zero. Stock has been so
favored that no bad results are ex-
pected, in fact the snow will do much
good in giving fall planting a start.

From the Rocks County Record

The lecture by Chaplain Schlie-
mann at the opera house Tuesday
evening was not nearly SO well at
tended as it should have been. The
address was exceedingly interesting
throughout. It was a graphic story
of the experiences of the Twentieth
Kansas regiment, and at times the
speaker waved eloquent as he got in
to the spirit of the remarkable
achievements of Funston and his men.
Everybody enjoyed it heartily. If
Mr.. SchIiemann could supplements
his remarks with stereoptican views
of the places visited by the regiment
he would make decided hit.
