L. J. SMILEY, the sinking secretary
OF the Grain Dealers Association, who
wouldn't testify here before Judge Simp-
son because he might incriminate him
self, Jared not so we'll in Rush county
last week as he did here. Here he was
let off with going to Jail constructively,
and OF course was in Jail eonstructively
when he was tried in Rush county. II.
Whiteside, who defended him here, also
defended him in Rush county. Here his
testimony was sought merely in order to
ascertain whether in fact there is such a
thing as a grain trust, and to secure in
formation upon which to begin suit. But
in Rush county Smiley was charged with
organizing the grain dealers of Bison
into trust upon the plan Of division of
the purchase Of grain, ETC., as before de-
scribed in these columns. He was ar
rested in Topeka and taken out to Rush
county in short order just as the October
term OF the court was convened. His
attorneys sought to secure a change Of
venue and had all the Lacrosse grain
dealers sign ansaffidavit that he could
not have fair trial in that place owing
to the bitter feeling existing between the
producers and the purchasers. But be-
fore this was presented to the court the
county attorney, Mr.. Mccormick, who
was here at the investigation trial, had
written up an affidavit to the effect that
a fair trial could be had in that county
and this was generally signed by the
farmers and business men of the city.
Upon this showing the court ordered the
trial to proceed. And ii was not smiling
day for Smiley. The evidence seemed
TO be ample and the jury found him
guilty under the law. He was given
fine OF $4,000 and sentenced to three
months in Jail. OF course the case was
appealed

new court house last Saturday. He enter

sole topic of conversation was on enliven.

as interlocutor, or something Of the kind,
Any way he asked all the questions
and the principal question was, where
did you get that liquor2' According to
strict legal parlance it was not receipt
ion that he held, but an inquisition, held
under the new law passed last winter
The county attorney or his deputy
states that the whole procedure cost the
county about 5000 and it amounted to
little, in the matter of getting evidence.
One Of the witnesses from somewhere
got so heavy load of something that he
staggered and the police got him. This
is the first reception of the kind that the
county attorney has held.

1t is an encouraging sign for the
health Of the modern American that
the popularity of outdoor life in this
country seems to be increasing, The
number and variety of sports and
pastimcs which allure to open-air eX-
ertion has grown greatly. Not very
many years have elapsed since the
time when tennis and football were
unusual and golf and the bicycle were
almost unknown. Yet the influence Of
these and other sports has been so
strong in recent years that open-ar
life has come to be enjoyed for its
own sake and apart from the amuse-
ments associated with It. 1t Is great
mistake to suppose that the pleas
ures Of outdoor life are especial priv
ilegcs of youth or Of any given type
of summer amusement seeker. The
immense advantages they confer
should be shared by all alike. In the
present state Of our social develop
ment they are among the richest Of
the blessings within the reach OF the
people.

An effort is being made by the attor-

tigation commenced in this county to
have the constitutional questions passed
upon by the United States supreme
court instead Of the State supreme
court. If this could be done II would Of
course have the advantage Of determin-
ing the case once and for all in short
time, II 1t goes TO the State supreme
court first there will be chance to get
into the United States Supreme
court afterward on an appeal. However
some Of the attorneys seem to think
the latter court will not entertain the
case, and it can not be decided by that
tribunal at the first jump.

HUTCHINSON RENO COUNTY KANSAS THURSDAY OCTOBER 10 1901

Saturday half holidays In summer
are now practically universally ob.

trades and indus
summer tries, and they
send hundreds OF thousands OF people
outdoors. 1t has brought great So
cial change OF almost incalculable
consequence to the indoor working
classes, says Worlds Work But 1t
Is change that has so quietly and
gradually taken place that 1t Is now
hard TO recall the time-only n few
years ago--when the half holiday
was almost unknown, The change
has had an almost revolutionary eff
feet on the popular appreciation OF
outdoor llfej and the popular appre-
citation OF outdoor life may, without
much risk of eXaggeration, be called
the most noteworthy development OF
popular taste and health and social
sanity that this generation has wit
messed, 1t is preventive social treat
ment Of the highest value, 1t was the
fashion not many years ago to dis

nervous breakdown of Americans, 1t
Is the fashion now to study nature
outdoors. Bird books, flower books,
animal booKs, the camera, walking
clubs, bicycle clubs, of course-these
have come into their present popu-

carnival in the metropolis Of Colorado
The festival committee could not have
chosen more creditable band than the
Hutchinson to lead the industrial parade
nor could they have selected better
one to furnish music for the coronation
ceremonies and queens ball, and while
it would have been discourteous to have
heaped all the honors on Holidays band
the management displayed good judge
ment in placing them second on the list
in the carnival parade.
Nice weather prevailed throughout
the festival and in every way the carni-
val was success, Kansas was well
represented with four large bands in
cluding the girls band Of Wctmore, and
hundreds of visitors.

VIII Feed AThousand or More.

Mr.. Sullivan, Utah man is here and
has arranged for feeding a thousand
head of cattle, and probably more at the
stock yards east of to Wn this winter. The
cattle have been in J. E, Conklings big
pasture in the southern part of Kiowa
county, IN the breaks along the Medicine
river this summer, A somewhat new
departure for this country will be inaug-
urated in feeding these cattle. Reno
county cattle are usually fed corn, but
this year new ration must be devised.
Mr. Sullivan expects to begin by feed
ing his cattle ration of cottonseed meal
and hulls. with some bran. This is no
ne" ration in feeding cattle, as it is used
extensively in Oklahoma and points
south. However it is not used as an ex.
elusive ration and is usually mixed with
something else. Mr. Sullivan says that
hs will probably mix in considerable
waeat chop later. He may also feed
many more cattle than the above num-
Der. Future developments will depend
largely upon the success of the opera
tions. The cotton seed meal and hulls

When Mary Stuart Boyd was travelling
along the road leading to the Cinnamon
gardens at Colombo she encountered
great crowds of natives walking toward
the town. In spite of the fact that the
sun was shining and there was no indica.
ton of disagreeable weather, the natives,
all airily dressed, carried under their
arms venerable specimens of the black
cotton umbrella. This puzzling circum-
stance she emphasizes in sour Stolen
Summer"
why do these men carry umbrellas?"
she asked of her rickshawman.
"For the rain, madam"
"But there is no rain"
"For the rain that is coming, madam
was the laconic reply.
She rode on, amused at thinking that
the men of Colombo burdened themselves
with the worn and faded umbrellas out
of desire to ape English fashions.
The sun had scarcely forgotten to shine
when a soft, warm rain encompassed the
party A moment later it had blotted out
the surrounding scenery, and the travel
ers, seated securely under the rickshaws,
seemed to have passed into a different
world. Moisture streamed in rills from
the charioteers' muscular limbs, but they
ran lightly on, their serenity quite undis-
turbed. The shower ceased as suddenly
as it began.

The Koustari of Russia.

The 90,00O.000 peasants of Russia find
it more than difficult to make both ends
meet In winter. therefore, those who
are at all skillful employ themselves in
doors at various little industries. These
people are called 'koustari." They carve
the innumerable wooden spoons used in
every peasant home and manufacture the
20,000,O00 wheels and sledges used in
Russia annually.
They are the potters, basket makers,
locksmiths. toymakers and saddlers Of
the nation. following these trades as an
avocation, the pittance of few rubles
for six months work indoors helping
them to exc out an existence as farmers.
Fully 100000 Russian families are in
cluded in the koustari, their annual earn
ings adding perhaps $250,000,000 to the
wealth of the peasants. Thousands Of
villages throughout Russia are known for
the excellence of some particular ware
manufactured by the koustari, usually
an article carved from wood taken from
the great forests of Russia, but it is not
only in the making of wooden ware that
they are expert. for they manufacture by
hand millions of hooks needed for the
fishing industry of Russia, in which they
engage.

Ring out merrily.

Ring out merrily,
Lonely, cheerily,
Blitbs old bells from the steeple towefI
Hopefully, tearfully,
Joyfully, fearfully,
Moveth the bride from the maiden bower.
Cloud there is none In the fair summer sky;
Sunshine Aings benson down from on high;
Children sing loud as the train moves along.
Happy the bride the sun shines on"
Knell out drearily,
Measured and YEARLY,
Sad old bells from the steeple grayi
Priests chanting lowly,
Solemnly, slowly,
Passeth the corpse from the portal today.
Drops from the leaden clouds heavily fall,
Dripping over the plume and the pail;
Murmur old folks as the train moves along,
"Happy the dead that the rain raineth on"
Toll at the hour of prime,
Matin and vesper chime,
Loving old bells from the steeple high;
Rolling like holy waves
Over the lowly graves,
Floating up, prayer fraught, into the sky.
Solemn the lesson your lightest notes teach;
Stern Is the preaching your iron tongues preach
Ringing in life from the bud to the bloom,
Ringing the dead to their rest in the tomb.
Peal out evermore,
Peal as ye pealed Sabbath day,
Brave old bells, on each Sabbath day;
In sunshine and gladness,
Through clouds and through sadness,
Bridal and burial have passed away.
Tell lifes pleasures with death are still rife;
Tell us that death ever leadest to life.
Life Is our labor, and death is our rest;
II happy the living, the dead are the blest.
