A PLAIN KANSAS FARMER.

lHS iHuu IcutuiS VI ophh ! =
Stewart, of Sumner county, Kan
sas, will amount to nearly 100, 600
bushels of wheat this year. In his
homo county he owns ll5 quarter
sections of land and about 80
quarter sections in adjoining coun-
ties. He rents the lands on the
basis Of half the yield, he furnish
ing all the seed and taking chances
of securing crop,
1t is estimated that if all the
wheat due him on rentals this
year was shipped in one consign-
ment it would require IT freight
trains of Is cars each to take it to
market. His rentals in wheat last
year netted him $4,000. In addi-
ton to owning about $3.50, 600
worth of land, every foot of it paid
for, he has nearly $3.50, 900 worth
of bank stock and 100000 invest
ed in farm lands in Sumner county
and Oklahoma
About 25 years ago Mr. Stewart
began life as clerk in an obscure
office in Chicago at $50 month.
He slept in the Office and was eco
. npmical in other ways. He began
loaning money in Sumner county
about 20 years ago, and has deveI-
oped into n remarkable hnancier.
1t is said that his ambition is to
finally own a railroad, and he may
crafty it, as he is still very
young man, not more than 40.
He carries a a'small memorandum
book in his pocket, and it is said
that he can take it out at any hour
of the day when required and tell
every debtor exactly what his ac-
count is. Indeed, it is said that
accounts of his vast transactions
are always kept in n book that fits
his trousers pocket.
It is said that he lives on less
than $l0O per month and that out.
side of this his largest annual ex-
pense is $500 to tho Methodist
church his wife and large family Of
chill dren attend. He is not fond OF
travelling, except to go to Demo
cratic conventional diversion he
is passionately fond of. He is a
pronounced temperance man, and,
it is said, believes in the prohibi-
ton laws of Kansas.
The great Wellington cyclone OF
1892 picked him up and absolute
ly pasted him to the gable end of
barn and kept him stuck to it
for more than half a minute, as if
he were the picture of man, in
stead of the real thing. When the
tornado had passed he dropped to
the ground and landed on his feet
without a scratch. The same cy-
clone passed over his house doing
$5 worth of damage, although it
reduced every house for block
around him to spliters. 1t cut off
two or three of his fine maple
trees at the base as smooth as il
they were sawed off, just to show
him what it could have done If it
had wanted to, and passed on to
pick up church across the street
and make it turn a complete SOM
ersault in the air.

Story of Two Hunters.

Two business men of Florence
went out rabbit hunting last Sun
day and have not yet returned
They were heard from yesterday
however, and the report is that in
some way or other they became
separated. One of them then de-
cided to do the Teddy act and
went up into the mountains to
hunt mountain lions. He found
one and at last reports he was still
pursuing it. The other man got
lost and lay out all night perhaps
slept in the fork of tree with a
big bear at the foot of it. We
hope they will return safely in a
week or two.
One of the hunters is proprietor
of the Greenlight saloon, and the
other is the owner of the Idlewhd
barber shop.

The drill was started in 10-inoh
hole, which will allow it attaining
considera BILE depth The company
is very confident of striking oil
and experts who have examined
the ground pronounce it underlaid
with petroleum.
If oil is not encountered in the
first hole drilled, others will be
put down. as the company has
considerable capital behind it.
These operations are the farthest
south of any in the district and
the developments will be watched
with the keenest interest by oil
men and Others of this place, be-
cause if oil is struck it will prove
that the stratum extends into the
Greenhorn range and the prairie
land will at once become valuable,
as oil land and the striking of oil
there will mean an oil boom for
Florence.
The company has thousands of
acres of ground to work which is
located in new district. A large
mum ber of Florence and Canon
City men witnessed the spudding

PLANS
OF the Industrial
School.
Children's Street Clean
ing Society
And a Library For Boys
as Well as Girls.
An Entertainment, and Talk by
Mayor Doyle.

Pupils of the Industrial Schol
We're given pleasant variation to
ordinary exercises, Saturday after
noon, by lantern slide entertainment,
given under the auspices of the Ak
ron Camera Club, and some remarks
by Mayor Doyle. Arrangements are
also being made by which the Christ
mas of the pupils will be made much
more enjoyable and significant than it
would be ordinarily.
Another plan announced is the for
nation of a society of children, whose
aim will be to assist in keeping the
streets clean. 1t is hoped by the Union
Charity Association that the city
authorities will have large cans
placed along the streets, into
which the children will place all the
loose rubbish they see on the streets
and pavements. These Childrens
Street Cleaning societies have done
good work in other cities.
With reference to the plans for the
library and Boys department, Miss
Nellie Alexander, who has charge of
the Penny Provident fund, said. "The
establishment of library Is one Of
the greatest ambitions of the Union
Charity Association. This library, If
established, will not be exclusively
for the benefit Of the girls Of the In
dustr,al school, but shall prove to be
an advantage, also, we hope.
for the boys. Magazine liter
ature Is distributed at the
close of sessions, each Saturday-ev.
cry child receiving two periodicals
and, as this has apparently promoted
some taste among the girls for good
reading, why would it not prove of the
same value to boys? And why
shouldn't books be provided, as well as
magazines? Magazines are given to
the children, but the books will be
loaned them.
"Akron young people who have
tossed aside books which were once
charming to their minds, but now out.
grown, may help the Association to
the realization of this library. Large
hearted fathers and mothers will
doubtless rejoice at this opportunity
to brighten young lives. The Union
Charity rooms In the Walsh block are
open every Saturday, and the dona.
tion of books, either new or second
hand, is earnestly requested"

JOHN D. JR.,

Married But Recently and Told
Mother.ln.LaW Story.

New York, Dec. 7.--John ID. Rookie
feller, jr., was the chief speaker at
tie annual dinner of the young mems
Bible class at the Broadway Central
hotel last night. Mr.. Rockefeller, who
has been married only a few weeks,
made so bold as to talk of women and
mothers-irrlaw. Mr.. Rockefeller told
this mother-in-law story;
"a young man and his wife had lived
for years and not always pleasantly,
with the wife's mother At last the
old lady died-or at least they thought
she had died. The pallbearers carried
her coffin down the front steps, and one
of them slipped. The coffin struck n
tree, the lid came off and then it was
found that his mother-in-law had not
died at all, but was only In II trance.
Z. "Well she lived for some years after
that and then she died agnin---this time
permanently. And as the pallbearers
approached that same tree at the foot
OF the steps, the young man stopped
weeping, turned to the man who had
slipped, and whispered: BE careful,
Sam, don't slip this time.'
