Value of n yvoman's Services.

A curious case has just been settled
in the probate court at Abilene. For
~ years woman lived with her hus-
band on the supposition that she was
legally married to him. After his
death it was discovered that he had a
former and undivorced wife living in
New York and his New York wife had
no trouble in establishing her claim
to the mans property. Thereupon the
deceived woman brought claim against
the mans estate for remuneration for
wifely services. The court allowed
her just $1,000 for the ~ years, thus
giving legal sanction to the belief
that wife around the house is worth
a few cents over $50 year.

The Kansas Gas Rclt.

Labor Commissioner johnson has
prepared an interesting article on the
Development of the Kansas Gas
Belt" The oil and gas fields of the
state cover about $50 square miles and
comprise the counties of Allen, Linn,
Bourbon, Neosho, Wilson, Elk, Mont
gomery and Chautauqua. More than
400 wells have been drilled in this dis
trict, the average depth of which Is
900 feet. The average output of q
well ranges from 100000 to 12,0OO.0 900
cubic feet of gas every "a hours. The
great value of natural gas as q fuel
in manufacturing has become n mat
ter of much concern to our coal-pro-
ducing counties. A comparison of the
heat units in the two articles of fuel
shows that 10000 cubic feet of gas
equal in heat one ton of bituminous
coal. 1t is estimated that 100 or more
manufacturing concerns in Allen
county are using gas for fuel. Chem
ical analysis Of the Kansas gas shows
it to be far superior to the gas found
In eastern states.

George Il. Rush was struck by light
ming. He could feel no hurt, but he
could hear the rattle in his own throat
when gasping for air. He was con-
scious of u straining effort all over
to throw off some spell, but he could
not move single muscle. He heard q
voice say, as anyone hurt?" and the
reply from one of his comrades. Yes,
George is killed." but he could not
give the slightest sign that he was not
killed. They threw water in his face.
He knew all about that and he kept up
an enormous mental struggle to get
away from the spell. At last he sud-
denly got the power to move one of
his hands. Then life went into all
parts of his body, but it broughs ex-
cruciating pains, as when hand or

farmers of the state and northwest ut

vote considerable time to studying
the business methods. He was APP
pointed warden just as the twine-sell-
ing season was on, and was very sue
cessful in selling out the stock, but
inasmuch MS it is the intention to have
about three times as much stock on
hand for next year, Mr.. Jewett desires
tolbe informed, so as to take every adj
vantage of the situation. The Kan
sas penitentiary Irvine plant is now
undergoing an overhauling. Soon aft
