Him as County Commissioner.

~. ~. sHIa.=s E=HE #sMEfE&

board of county commissioners, has
rendered his resignation as a mem
Der of that body.
Mr.. Amin was elected as a member
of the county board at the general
election in 1896 and has served the
county in that capacity since January,
1897. He has made an excellent COM
missioner and his retirement, though
not unexpected, will be regretted by
many taxpayers throughout the
county.
County Clerk Carwile will imme-
diately notify Judge Loud of the va
cancy, who will likely appoint Mr.. s.

CANNED FRUIT STOLEN.
Cellars Are Being Pilfered Almost
Nightly.

HH
There have been more or less petty
thefts throughout the city during the
past week or two in which the supply
of canned fruits of the housewives
have been made to suffer at the
hands of someone who seems to be
acquainted with surroundings, for no
cellars have been entered, except
those that are we'll supplied. So far
the police have been unable to secure
any clue which would lead to the APP
%prehension of those who are feasting
at the expense of the hard working
housewife.
The latest report comes from A.
P. Hart, whose cellar was entered
Wednesday night and about IS jars
of fruit stolen. There were evidently
two persons who had a hand in the
robbery, one of them a woman. They
left tracks of their shoes, which
showing one as wearing a shoe, No. 8
or 9 in size, while that of the other
was a No. 8 or 4, which leads to the
supposition that it covered a femi-
nine foot.

prompt settlement.

Boston Wool Market.

Boston, July 10-The American
Wool and Cotton Reporter will say
tomorrow of the wool trade: The
market has been less active the past
week, the interruption of a holiday
combined with the dull and unfavor-
able opening at the London auctions
naturally tending to restrict business.
Reports received since the opening of
the London sales indicate, however,
some improvement. The traders are
feeling better than they did at the
beginning of the week and this feel
ing has been greatly Strengthened by
the tenor of the reports from the
popular fancy on heavy weights are
running full on duplicate orders and
some of them have actually refused
such orders. Another fact which has
also tended to impart strength to the
market is the continued firmness in
the territories. Quite a lot Of desir-
able medium stock is reported to have
been sold at IA cents. Indications
are that woods will be cleaned up as
thoroughly in Montana as they we're
in Idaho and as they have been in
most territories this season.
The sales for the week in. Boston
amounted to 100000 pounds domes-
tic and 212,20O foreign, making a
total Of 1882, 200, against a total of
6,195,00O for the previous week and
a total Of t1,136,O0O for the CORE
spending week last year. The sales
since January l amount to ia, $751;
600 pounds, against 7O,272, 600 pounds
for the corresponding time last year.
The receipts of wool in Boston this
week amount to 1887 bales, against
17,774 bales last week and Is, 942
bzales last year. The total receipts
since January / have been 259, 1856
bales domestic and 1887 bales Of
foreign, against 166,071 bales domes-
tic and 102,915 bales foreign for the
corresponding period of 1900. This
is an increase of 1854 bales domes-
tic and a decrease of $3.50 bales
foreign. Shipments of wool for the
week ending July s are as follows:
Tuesday, July 2, s05, $50; Wednesday,
July 3, 815,710; Friday, July 5, OIL
941; Saturday, July 6, 646.030; Mon
day. July s, 663, 100, Total 4,726,021
pounds. This shows a decrease of
$685. pounds over thte shipments
of 4,3s6,62O pounds for the previous

the story of the sower who went forth
to SOW, drawing separate morals from
each word of the text the humility of
the man. his def1niteness of purpose
his activity in the duty before him. his
going forth straightforwardly to an ug-
ly and unattractive duty without
thought of loftier pursuits.
Mr.. Woolley in drawing these morals
impressed them on the memories of his
hearers with witty and pointed anec-
dotes and comparisons
You can't tell much about horse
or a Christian" said he, until you see
him go. The text says the sower went
which was a great deal. If a Christian
will go he is the right sort AS ] say.
you can't tell anything about what kind
of Christian he is until you see him
go. If you want to buy a horse. the
first thing you ask is to have him led
out so you can see him go. You can't
tell anything about him when he's
standing on straw in his stall. no mat
ter how glossy his coat is, or how well
his teeth look. You want to see him
outside where you can see how the
light strikes his eyes, and you can see
that his age has not been represented
want to feel about for ringbones.
etc. That's the way with Christian.
You can't tell a thing about him when
you see him dressed up in a Prince AL
bert with a clean shave and patent
leather shoes. You want to see him in
his everyday clothes at his job and see
how he goes"
Mr.. Woolley went on to draw fur
ther apt comparisons between the
Christian and the horse. exhibiting q
wide knowledge of horse1esh and relat-
| ing instances of his own misfortunes in
the matter of horse trades. He con
cluded with a strong appeal to all Chris
tians to follow the example of the sow,
er and to SOW their seeds regardless Of
| the inclination of the crowds. ever
| though the seeds be sown hundred
years ahead of time.

THE RULA AT BUFFALO.
scanty Costumes of Dancers Big
Crowds on Hand.

The Buffalo Express prints a half-
tone picture of the hula girls. now ex-
hibiting at Buffalo, showing them in
the extreme of the old barbaric mode
and accompanies it with the following
text:
"Oh. the hula-hula girls!" shouts
the King of Midway and everybody
stops to hear about them. The word
hula" signifies dance, and the literal
translation is "dance-dance girls.
These are high-class types OF the vau-
deville artists of Hawaii They present
the national dance, which is peculiarly
Egyptian In its muscular contoruons,
and consists entirely OF movements OF
the body and limbs below the waist.
The hula-hula girls dance in compa-
MES. They dance in single file, com
pany front, company right, company
rear, with military precision. They are
not high kickers. They are not risky.
Their brown bare feet caress the floor
constantly. They shuttle to and fro TO
the monotone of two native end men
who sit cross-legged on the floor ana
beat q big dry gourd TO the time OF
their curious song. 1t seems to be a
very serious performance to them The
dancers wear scarlet blouses and
short skirts of the same color. In Ha-
wall the women still run to overskirts.
That worn by the hula-hula girls Is
made Of long grass, sort OF hip
thatch which gives a touch Of pictur-
esqueness to the scanty costumes. The
coffee-brown legs of the dancers are
bare and decorated with anklets OF
lambskin. Some prudish persons
object to the Hawaiian dance. The
vast majority, however, return again
and again, to witness It and hear the
delightful music.

GEOLOGICAL SURVEY.
Development of Kansas Water Resources

A new light wts thrown on
Kansas as a water power state
by a recent report Of the q. S.
Geological Survey, which gives a
number of interesting figures res
garding the use and value of The
Kansas streams for water power
and supply. The Geological Sur
vey has for several years been
conducting measurementsof flow
on these rivers, and has secured
information regarding their
water supply which will be Of
value to engineers and manuf ac-
turers. The measurements also
show the wide extremes Of flow
common to streams of this sec
tiOn of the country between the
summer and the winter months,
and indicate the proportion Of
time in which auxiliary steam
power must be useda
Gaging. stations are maintain
edoon the Arkansas in a number
of places, the Verdigris, the Neo-
sho, Republican, Solomon, Saline,
Smoky Hill, Blue and Kansas
Rivers, where daily observations
are made.
Besides it's study of the rivers
of the state, the Geological Sur
vey is making a thorough inves-
tigation into the possibility of
securing an underground water
supply which can be- reached by
wells, and which if discovered
will be Of the greatest value, es-
pecially on the high plains in the
western part Of the state.o 1t is
doubtful if any state has rich
er soil or land which can be more
readily cultivated than Kansas,
and with an abundance Of water
for crops and stock, settlement
and development will be rapid in
the western section which on ac-
count of it's present lack of water
cannot be fully utilized.
The value of windmills as a
means Of increasing the water
supply OF the state, by making
use OF the prevalent strong and
steady winds, has also attracted
the attention Of the Survey and
an interesting report on their
varieties and uses has been is-
sued.
