IRL R. HICKS 1901 ALMANAC.

Whatever may be said OF the sclen'
tific causes upon which the Rev. Irl
r. Hicks bases his yearly forecasts u
storms and weather, it is remark
able fact that specific warnings of
every great storm, food, cold wave
and drouth, have been plainly printed
in his now famous Almanac for many
years. The latest startling proof Of
this fact was the destruction OF Gal
weston, Texas, on the very day named
by Prof. Hicks in his 1900 almanac, as
one Of disaster by storm along the
gulf coasts. The 1901 almanac, by far
the finest, most complete and beauti-
full yet published, is now ready. This
remarkable book of nearly two humid
red pages, splendidly illustrated with
charts and half-tone engravings, goes
as premium 70 every subscriber who
pays one dollar year for Prof. Hicks

nae alone is sent prepaid for only Zoe.

We enjoyed pleasant little visit
last Monday from l.. NJ. Walker OF
Woodland, California. Mr.. Walker
who is an uncle of Mr.. G. G. Davis has
been visiting his nephew here for sone
time past accompanied by his sister,
Mrs. Blakely of Rochester, Minnesota,
Mr.. Walker is an old time Kansan,
having edited paper in lola from 10
to rs. He speaks in the higest terms
of the great improvements that have
taken place in this county since he
left and though greatly in love with
his home in California he has a warm
spot IN his heart for Kansas. While
here Mr.. Walker wrote letter to his
brother-in-law in Rochester, Minnesota
which was published in the Post and
Record of that city, which we repro
duce as an evidence of what visitors
from other states now think of Kan
SaS:
Chanute, Kan, Nov. 10, 1900.
There is and old saying that zone
half of the world doesn't know how
the other half lives" and experience
has convinced me that the people of
one state don't know even how the
people of sister states live. To illuSt-
rate: Many people east of the Rocky
Mountains, when told that a rasin is
nothing but dried grape, can hardly
believe it, as they have imagined it
was cured in sugar by some process.
Again, when they are told that the
ranchers OF California drive thirty
mule team into their wheat field, at
tach to harvester that cuts, thresh-
es and sacks the wheat ready to be
hauled to market, they open their eyes
and ask, ''is that possibIe?"
In Minnesota many families have
furnaces in their homes for comfort
during the cold winters, with large
expense for coal or wood, and an addit-
ional expense for either gas or electric
light, while down here in southern
Kansas they have natural gas that fur
nishes fuel for the furnace, for cook
ing. for lights in the homes, in the
stores and In the streets, so cheap that
they let IL burn day and night, not
taking the trouble to turn it out,
The result is that men with capital
are coming into these natural gas
towns and starting manufactures of
different kinds, and what, few years
ago, were little, one-horse towns, are
now smart cities.
People Of the other states used to
speak Of this state as "bleeding Kan
sas," but it will not do any longer to
use that appellatiOn when speaking of
Kansas, as today it is one of the most
prosperous states in the union. The
farmers are nearly all well fixed. with
good houses and barns, and when they
go into town ride in nice surries with
a spanking team attached.
There are great many populsts in
the state, and thay are about the only
people who are not pleased over the
result OF the election. The old Jeffer-
sonian democrats all wear a broad
smile, and seem as glad as the repub.
licans that Bryan and allies are buried
so deep that it will be impossible for
them to dig out in four years, IL ever.

sale on his farm Wednesday. Several

sell out. This is another instance when

A horse that had been raised near O
railroad station, and who had no fear
of trains or engines, expressed his
contempt for steed from the country
who, happening to be near the rail-
road track, was nearly frightened to
death at the sight of a train of cars.
what are you afraid of, you cowardly
fonl?" asked the town horse, that
train won't hurt you particle"
The next day the town horse was
driven out into the country, and pass
ing by the home of the country horse,
he espied hay rake lying at the side
Of the road. This was the first hay
rake the town horse had ever seen,
and he nearly jumped out of his har.
ness with fright. "See that fool
horse" remarked the country horse in
a tone of disgust. "He scares at that
hay rake that wouldn't hurt fly"
Moral: The way we act depends
largely on what we are used to.

possessed Of an appetite for your wins
kers, was being fed to the limit by 1t
owner 1t had the range Of beauti
full alfalfa pasture. and In addition
was permitted to load up on the rich

fort gave the hog the hig head and he
said to himself: "That master OF
mine is evidently stuck on me. See
how he gives me the best there is
aronnd the place, and all that l can
get away with every day So the
conceited and supplemented hog fed
on until he was so fat that he could
hardly wink and his stomach almost
brushed the ground when he walked.
One day the hog was loaded along
with several other swine, ia IA palace
stock car, and sent on journey to
Kansas City. Stll he did not get
onto the real situation. and said: Il
see the old man wants me TO take
little vacation and see the country "
After while the car on which the
foolish hog was riding stopped at the
stock yards and he was unlOaded and
driven into long chute, along which
a man with a sharp prod forced him
TO travel, although this part of the
performance didn't suit him a bit.
He, protested, but II didn't do him
bit of good. This kind Of treatment
made him hot and he said: "As soon

he came to the end Of the chute and |
saw chain fastened about the leg of

The latest biographer OF Gen.
Forrest, the great confederate caval-
nv leader, defends his hero against
the charges Of blood thirstiness that
have been made against him.
Once, in the midst of one of his
campaigns, he relates, a captured
federal chaplain was brought to his
headquarters. The man showed
the deepest anxiety and depression,
for stories of Gen. Forests severity
were rife in the nnion camp. A lit
tie later supper was announced and
Forrest, to the chaplain's surprise,
asked him to share it; but his sur
prise grew to amazement when the
general turned to him reverentially
and said.
"Parson will you please ask a
blessi, g?'
The next morning Forrest courte-
ously gave him an escort through
the confederate lines, for he wished
no non -ccmbatauts for prisoners,
and bade him goodbye with the re-
mark:
IL would keep you hereto preach
for me if you weren't needed 50
much more by the sinners on the
other side. ''-Collier's Weekly.
