It is an interesting fact that at the
Paris exposition the mill engine" is
not in evidence and appears to be ceas-
Ing to exist on the Continent. There is
not a main driving belt not driving
rope at work in the exposition. All
the large engines without exception
are employed in driving dynamos, for
the most part OF the fiy-wheel types
and these supply power where 1t is
wanted through cables led In various

favor with which electrical transmits

One OF the most interesting, pictur-
esque and delightful places in this
country is unquestionably the resort
known as the Magno Mud and Lithia
Water Cure. located at Indiana Nine
raj Springs, Indiana. Here come the
overworked business man, the worn
out devotee of society and the profess
sional man on the verge Of nervous
prostration, as well as the sufferer
from rheumatism, kidney and skin
diseases for which the baths are es-
pecially beneficial. The place is also
largely patronized by those who only
seek pleasure and recreation. its loca-
ton making 1t particularly adapted for
this purpose. There are many roman
tic and beautiful spots and places of
interest in the vicinity and 1t would
be hard to find section of country
containing so many beautiful drives.
The country is very hilly. but the
roads are all graveled and kept in
good condition. This Is one Of the
things that makes the place especially
attractive to those afflicted with rheu-
matism. as driving is about the only
outdoor pleasure one crippled with
rheumatism can indulge In. Some OF
the cures effected are really marvel
GUS and many who have gone to the
Magno Mud Cure as last resort have
returned home within a few weeks
filled with renewed health and
strength.
The accommodations, service. table
and attendance is all that can be de-
sired and the rates very reasonable
indeed. The Springs is under the able
management of Major H. L. Kramer

A VIEW OF FORT HAYS.

.Hickock deemed 1t judicious to leave
town before the expiration OF his term
Of office, he saying that he had no
contract to whip the whole army. In
August, 1872, Pony Donovan was ar
rested on a charge of horse stealing,
and was confined in the Jail in the
basement of the court house. One
night some one shot him dead there,
and fired the court house. 1t burned
down, and all the county records were
destroyed. The new court house like
wise burned down. Then another was
built, that yet stands. A place with
a history" is small tract of land
northwest of Hays City. 1t contains
the graves of forty-five persons, many
Of them unknown, who met violent
deaths in various ARRAYS or by assas-
sination. Boot HIP is the name Of
this neglected place, chosen because
most OF the corpses were buried with
their boots on.
But in 1876 Hays City began to i'm
prove. Indians occasionally came to
town, got drunk. and engaged in rows
with citizens or soldiers, but nothing
serious resulted. In 1889 the old fort
was abandoned, and Hays City has
developed into one Of the most thriv-
ing little towns Of the west, surround
ed by vast wheat fields, the tentantless
buildings of the fort alone reminding
the visitor of the stormy days Of the
past. And even they will soon be but
a memory, for an agricultural and nor
NAL college Is to be established at the
old fort, and the reservation lands are
about to be turned into public park.

HISTORIC FORT HAYS
NOTED SPOT WHERE THRILL
ING INCIDENTS OCCURRED.
It Has Lately Been Abandoned-An
Educational Institution to BE Built on
Its Site - The Forermner Of Hays
City.
Especial letter.


One Of the noted military posts OF
the country was Fort Hays, Kan. In
1866 Fort Fletcher was built at the
junction of the North Fork and Big
creek. In 1867 food destroyed It,,
drowned several soldiers, and swept
away mules, wagons, tents and bar
racks. Then Gen. Phil Sheridan chose
a higher site. and Major ellis OF the
Seventh United States cavalry directed
the building of the new fort, which
was begun at once. 1t was named
Hays in honor of Gen. Alexander
Hays, who commanded a division I'M
der Hancock In the Civil war, and was
killed in the Wilderness campaign.
Many noted officers have been sta
toned at Fort Hoys. Gen. Phil Sheri-
dan was In command in 1868, and pre-
vious to that date General Hancock di-
rected military affairs in that depart
ment. General Custer made many OF
his remarkable Indian campaigns from
there. From 81 to II his command
was there. Custer was succeeded IN
II by Colonel Cakes with the Sixth
cavalry. The last officer in command
at the post before its abandonment was
Maj. John r. Yard Of the Eighteenth
infantry. Many years before he had
been there with the Tenth (colored)
cavalry.
In connection with Custer, 1t may be
noted that the last survivor OF the
memorable massacre on the Little Big
Horn in 1876 died last April in Chey-
enne, Wyo., when Billy" the gener-
ais old war horse, died. BILLY" was
found wandering about on the battle
field. passed into the possession OF Mr..
Thomas f. Talbot of Cheyenne, was
kindly cared for, and his body lies
buried in the garden of the Talbot
residence, the place being marked by a
stone slab.
After the fort had been built, Hays
City sprang up around 1t, and In early
years 1t was an open question whether
Hays City or Dodge City was the
tougher" place. In 1870 the little
place had thirty-seven saloons, every
one a gambling place, most OF them
dance halls. The cowboy and the blue
coat made things lively in these re-
sorts. for there was no love lost be-
tw&.~ them. One night the cowboys
lynched three colored soldiers. They
were hung from the railroad bridge
west of town, and their dead bodies
were found dangling there the next
day.
For years the place was the COW
boys trading point. The surrounding
country was vast cattle range. On

while he was in command he killed

sent to the family in Missouri. He
refused, absolutely, however, to go
back to his family, or to permit
members of the family to come out

Recently he went from Alsea to AL

Stfnginess That Did Not PAY.


The man did not live in Benton
county. He was a Kansan. H He
was too stirgy to subscribe and pay
for the local paper. He sent his
little boy to borrow the copy taken
by his neighbor. In his haste the
boy ran over 81 stand of bees and
in ten minutes looked like a warty
summer squash. His cries reached
his father, who ran to his assistance,
and failing to notice a barbed wire
fence, ran into it, breaking it down,
cutting a handful of flesh from his
anatomy and running 81 pair of
pants. The old cow took advantage
of the gap in the fence and got into
the corn field and killed herself
eating green corn. Hearing the
racket the wife ran, upset a four
gallon churn of rich cream into a
basket of kittens drowning the
whole flock. In the hurry she
dropped a 81 set of false teeth.
The baby left alone crawled through
the spilled cream into the parlor,
running new $40 carpet. During
the excitement the oldest girl ran
away with the hired man; the dog
broke up eleven setting hens, and
the calves got out and chewed the
tails off four fine shirts.
