READY FOR THE WHIRL.
Opera House deliberately De0oratsd for
the C0nduotors' Ball Which win
Take Place Tonight.

The o. r. 9. ball given this Thurs
day evening at the opera house viii
be, deservedly. admitted to be the so
eiaI event Of the season. The conduCt-
ors' organization has made the most
elaborate and costly preparation to
make this ball a success. They have
spared no pains and no expense.
The decorations Of the hall are elab-
crate and artistic. As you enter the
hall by the new double doorway, you
pass between PORTER curtains into the
brilliantly lighted and elegantly ar
ranged and decorated hall. The three
center posts are in red, green and
white, the colors Of the order.
The ceiling on either side is laid of
into squares and diamonds with pend
ent bunting, and center pieces in the
shape Of bells and baskets. Around
the hall, and pendent from the ceiling,
is a broad band or border Of bunting
festooned between each window, and,
also between each window hang large
flags occupying nearly the entire in
tervening space. Each window is pro-
vided with lace curtains, and between
the flags are large mirrors.
The doorway leading to the stage is
also arranged with PORTER curtains.
The front Of the stage overhead is
decorated with acknowledged and
vari-colored pendents Of open work
paper bunting. The main center beam
which runs longitudinally overhead in
the hall, is decorated in red, white and
yellow, and pendent between the cen
ter posts are open work paper bunting
and large japanese umbrella. On the
facade Of the stage is the emblem Of
the o. R. G. worked in red, green and
white, the colors Of the order. The
orchestra viii occupy the right hand
angle Of the stage, and the platform is
tastifuIly arranged with chairs and
tables where refreshments viii be
served.
The labor bestowed, the expense in
volved, and the enthusiasm shown by
the o. R. c. organization, in the ar
rangements for their annual ball, de-
serve commendable mention, and
speak well for the public spirit and
enterprise Of the local division. The
ball will equal, and in some respects
surpass, any heretofore given in Good
land.

The right of counties to bid in all
lands sold for taxes was a affirmed in the
supreme court last week. In the case
passed on which was an appeal from
Reno county, L. a. Bigger bid in full
amount of the delinquent tax but
the sale was made to the county in ac-
cordance with an order of the board to
that effect. The court holds that the
sale of real estate for delinquent tax
does not conflict with the constitution
al principle that no mans property
can be taken from him without his
consent except by due process of law.
Tt is also stated that in the matter of
taxation the legislature is sovereign
and its discretion is uncontrolled. The
sale to the county is approved.

The GoEernor ATuddled o. F4fstorH.


In his speech before the Kansas day
club, January %, Gov. Stanley said:
"Forty years ago tonight 1 came to
Kansas and slept on the prairies with
John Brown. As we lay under the
clear sky on the dry grass that great
man unfoIded to me his plan for the
emancipation of the negroes" The
governor surely is mixed in his dates.
"Forty years ago tonight" was January
%, 1861 The herd book says
that Browns last appearance in Kan
sas was at the battle Of Spur, near Hol-
ton, December %, 1858. On that date
he crossed the line into Nebraska and
did not return. He was executed in
1860. 1t must have been some time in
1858, therefore, that Stanley slept with
Brown. That being true, Stanley was
only Il years old when Brown made q
confident of him, for Stanley says in a
sketch of himself in the herd book
that he was born in 1874. But there
is an error out somewhere. Stanley
says in the herd book piece that he was
admitted to the bar before moving TO
Kansas, and then goes on to say that
he located at Perry, Jefferson county,
in April, 1870, nine years after the dry
grass incident. Tom Anderson, q To-
peka hair-splitter, has looked up the
record and finds that on the night
Stanley says he slept on the dry grass
with Brown the ground was covered
with snow. Where the governor made
his mistake was in not allowing Henry
Allen to edit his Kansas day speech.

QUARANTINE DECLARED OFF.
City Council Abolish QuarantIne which
Was In Force Against Nearby Towns
That Have Small Pox.

The city council held a swarm" ses-
sion Tuesday night. The temperature
Of the meeting was gagged so as to
conform with the mOderating Of the
weather. All Of the warmth came from
the discussion Of the question. Of rails
ing the quarantine placed by GOOdland
against Norton, Sharon Springs and Of
other places where small pox exists.
The heat Of debate warmed the mem
bers feelings toward the barred towns
to such an extent that the quarantine
was raised and now if any person from
those places wish to visit this metropO-
lis they are free to do so. The special
marshal, l. F. Cooper, who has been
assisting Marshal Jewell in watching
the trains to see that no one from
those places entered our gates, was re-
LEVIED from duty.
The order was made after a long
discussion as some Of the members
we're of the opinion that the order
should still remain in force. The quar-
antine was placed about ten days ago
by the city and also by the county
board Of health. The county board has
not released their order. County
Health Officer Farrow says that the
quarantine issued by the county will
remain in force for a week or more.
Some Of the council thought that the
was impractical and only a
bluff anyway, and besides was quite an
expense to the town.
Another matter that occupied the
councils attention was the building of
a side walk in the Smoky Row. block
to replace the one destroyed in the
late fire. There was some opposition
but the order passed and an eight-foot
sidewalk viii be constructed in that
block.
One member criticised the school
board about the order of that board
that all children should be vaccinated-
or prohibited the privilege of the
school As a result, the councilman
said, some children were runniug the
streets because of the inability Of par
ents to pay for their children's vac
eination. But this not being a matter
subject to the jurisdiction Of the coun-
Gil, the matter was merely discussed.

Is IT SMALLPOX?
Frank Dimmitt and Olive Fletcher Al
hIeted Wiki Some Disease That
Resembles the Plague.

Dr.. FarrOw, county health officer,
went out to the -Dimmitt and Fletcher
places, about five miles west Of town
to investigate two cases, yestesday
forenoon; and to determine whether
they were smallpox OF not. Being qUes-
toned upon his return, he stated that
he was not certain as to the nature Of
the disease but thought, probably, it
was Cuban chickenpox. However, to
be on the safe side, he quarantined
both families.
1t seems that the two young men,
Ollie Fletcher and Frank Dimmitt,
some time ago went down to Liberal,
Kan, to get work on the Rock Island
extension. For some reason they re-
turned home, arriving Monday night
or Tuesday morning. Wednesday a.
m. Mr. Dimmitt, the father Of Frank
Dimmitt, came to town and informed
DR.. Farrow that both young men had
some sort Of an eruption, and requested
the doctor to go out to determine what
tho disease was. This matter was at
tended to Thursday as above reported.
The Dimmitts and Fletchers are
neighbOrs living three-fourths Of a
mile apart, the former on the north
and the latter on the south side Of the
railroad five miles west of town. The
young man, Ollie Fletcher, is the worse
off Of the two, having a high fever and
being badly broken out, but young
Dimmitt is not very sick and has only
few pimples on his face and head.

The Origin of DingIe-Dangles.

Dingle-dangles are those narrow rib.
bons of black silk, tipped at the ends
with brass points which have been hang
ing lately from the waists ofmany Young
women. They resemble shoe laces, and
the story OF their origin as feminine or.
naments is interesting.
They were invented" man milIiner
says, lin Paris. A milliner sat racking
his brains one afternoon for some new
idea to spring upon the women, and
while this racking process went on his
eyes rested absently on an old,fashioned
print OF a girl in a bodice that laced
down the front as corset laces. The
broad silk string in the bodice attracted
him. 1t was OF silk ribbon, and it was
pointed at the end with metal. 1t re.
sembled a shoestring. An idiotic idea
came to the man miliner, and he bought
some dozens of those wide black shoe
laces that are worn in Oxford ties. He
tipped them with gilt wire, and hung
them in bunch from the waist of an
afternoon gown. They had an instanta.
neous success. 1t wasn't long before,
under the charming name of dingle.
bangles, they had Travelled to England
and America. They are not in any wav
pretty, and yet, somehow swinging
from the slender waist OF a Young pirl
they look NICE Philadelphia Record.

To the United States cruiser Atlanta
belongs the distinction OF having in its
crew Chapman Shenandoah the only
American Indian in the navy. He is an
Oneida, and was born on the reserva-
ton twenty'nine years ago. He is the
grandson OF Shenandoah, THE Deer, 1"
who, in his day, was one of the most no.
table men of his tribe. At the age of IS
Shenandoah could neither read nor
write, but had natural talent for me-
Chanics, and after he had seen a steam
engine for the first time he went to his
home and built one out Of such material
as he could find. He became a student
at Hampton Institute and after seven
years of work was graduated but re-
manned at Hampton as an assistant in
the machine shop.
When the war with Spain broke out
be enlisted in the navy and served at
first as fireman on the San Francisco
and later on the New.York under Cap.
tain Chadwick. He was mustered out
of the volunteer service when the war
was over, but reenlisted at once and
was assigned to the Atlanta, on which
vessel he is at present. The Indian sail
or is described by his friends as a fine,
stalwart fellow of whom his tribesmen
have good cause to feel proud.

Just after the adjournment OF Congress
last week our new congressional delega-

cided to recommend to the President the
re-appointment OF the federal officehold-
ers in this state. The following men will
therefore hold their places for another
four years: James L. Martin of Brat

of Rutland, marshall; DIN Merrill of
Enosburg Falls, collector at Burlington;
Z. M. Mansur OF Island Pond, collector
at Newport; Frank L. Fish OF Vergennes,
bank examiner; Hugh Henry of Chester,
pension agent.
These men have proved faithful to
their various trusts and it was eminent
ly fitting that they should be given an
other term of service.
