Another Disastrous Fire,

A laughable story is told on two boys
or young men who went fishing last Mon
day up Cow Creek. After they had be-
come tired Of fishing they concluded to
60 swiming, After removing their shirts
they hung them over the limb Of tree
but they were not thus careful Of their
trousers. Them they left on the ground.
Either by someone on mischief bent,
or by a cigarette stub thrown into the
grass, or from some other unknown
cause the grass in that vicinity caught
fire, likewise the trousers,
And when they concluded their ablu-
tons in the creek they found their con-
dition to correspond very closely to that
Of the father and mother Of this human
race in the garden Of Eden, except that
their acquaintance with the ways Of civil
lization had removed from them that
gentle innocence and abandon which
were present with the first pair and
caused it 10 be writ of them that they
we're not ashamed. Furthermore there
were no fig leaves available. There was
mighty little romance anywhere round
about, but they finally 6shed up mar.
row strip OF old carpet that had been
used for cushion for the seat in the cart
which the fishermen drove on their ex-
cursions. Before they made this dis
covery their minds thought of the long
wait till night should drop her sable
curtains. But in the blistering sun
those thoughts were not pleasant. So
they girded themelves with the piece of
carpet where the smallest amount would
do the most good, got in the cart and
started for the assistance Of friends
When they stopped along way off from
young gentlemen friends they we're in
vited to come in. But 1--WE can't" went
back the reply, And just then the
litter of female voices again made them
wish for that pure Adamic state when
there was no shame.
There is moral to this story. When
you go swimming in Cow Crack hang
your clothes high on limb, and place a
guard over them with a maxim gun

Clubbing Offers.

This paper has a couple OF clubbing
offers to which it wishes to call especial
attention. The first is especially at
tractive. The is especially addressed
to those living on free rural delivery
routes and who wish to take a daily
paper. To them we offer the GAZETTE
and the Kansas City World, daily, both
one year for s2D The Kansas City
World is an independent paper which
is fair in all its political news. 1t is
however strong and fearless in urging
some of the reforms to which populists
are pledged, as, namely, the taxation of
franchises and the municipal ownership
OF public utilities. AS a newspaper it
gives market reports and all other news
usually given in daily paper. In size
it is seven column, eight page paper,
We can not say just how long this offer
will hold good, but notice will be given
before it is cancelled.
The other offer is in club with the
magazine now edited by Willis J, Abbott
who is the man that has been in charge
of the press bureau of the pational demo-
cratic committee during the two Bryan
campaigns. He is the man who was sell
ected for the debate with Murat Hal
stead in which the fat journalist from
Ohio got the worst handling he ever re
ceived, His magazine is called The
Pilgrim, Ithas been published for sew
eral years, but has lately taken on new
life by Abbott's connection with it and
the enlistment Of considerable new capi
tai. 1t is issued monthly in about such
form as the Ladies Home Journal. 1t
contains a few pages Of political matter

The old settlers meeting at the audi
torium last Thursday seems be gener-
ally regarded as the most successful one
in the history of the society Perhaps 1t
was because the drouth has made the
ground hard and difficult to get into, so
the old timers feel more like congregat-
ing and splnning yarns and reminiscen-
ces. In fact the conditions this year are
a little similar IN some respects to some
of the first seasons the old timers saw in
this country, Then also this is large
county In the early times acquaintance
was made at much longer range than
now and acquaintanceships that were
formed then have probably been allowed
to languish with the growth Of civiliza-
don, But at these meeting they are re-
newed. 1t Is good thing for the old
pioneers TO get together and feel real
comradship. 1t is good thing for us
now who are reaping the harvest Of ben
e6ts that came from their privations to
render due credit to those to whom
credits due.
When Z. s. Handy, president Of the
organization, called the assembly to Or
der, there was large attendance, and It
was comprised OF people from all over
the county, President Handy read an
address, the minutes Of the last years
meeting were read, and the Holladays
band arrived with their cheering pres
ence. The dinner was one OF the typ
ical old settlers kind, with.all abandon
ment of formality, each one intent on
having good feast and good time,
After dinner there was more music by
the band and then the address by Geo,
w, Martin, secretary of the State histor-
ical society," Mr., Martins speech was
one well adapted 10 the occasion, par.
tally statistical, and dealing to con-
siderable extent in the early history Of
this county. In fact he told some facts
about this county not generally known
by the people who live here, When he
had finished short stories and reminisces
were told by the old timers who were
closely listened to, A number of arti-
cles were shown which indicate the
change in the times. Perhaps the most
interesting was the pictures Of the vari-
Gus houses on Charlie Peekham's farm
near Haven, illustrating the evolution
through which it has passed as told in
last weeks paper,
In the evening there was the usual"old
settlers ball" at the auditorium and all
through it was a day to be enjoyed by
the pioneers Of Reno county.

About the Fair,

Every fair in the Arkansas Valley Cir
cult will be held as at first arranged.
The fair associations Of other counties
have made the same decision that ours
did and will make the most of the op-
portunities afforded, An especially fine
string of race horses are being entered,
some nine Of which have been trained
in St, John and something like similar
number at Sterling and at Great Bend
The dates Of the other fairs in the cir
cultla are as follows
Garden City, August alag; St. John,
August $780, Hutchinson, September
20; Sterling, September II-I4; Great

In making special inducements in
the way Of salary to the school teach
ers in the islands which have come
into our possession this government
is managing to call attention to the
very poor pay that our school teach
ers receive at home, and it is not sur
prising to know that n protest is
forming all over the country. Several
of our representatives in Cuba and
the Philippines declare that the sal
aries there are too high, but such il
really not the case, Compared with
the pay Of the political positions, they
are extremely moderate, They are
only high when compared with the
pay the school teachers receive in the
United States, and the opinions of the
gentlemen are based largely on the
fact that the protest at home has JUS

The Reunion,

Next week is reunion week, Itshould
be and no doubt will be one of the great.
est weeks for Hutchinson. Business is
not so hurrying as to compel the people
to stay at home. They can come out to
see the sights and hear what there is to
hear.
While it would perhaps be an exager-
alton to say that the attractions this
year will be a great improvement on
those Of other years they will at least be
as good and the grounds and equip
ments for the occasion will be muc h
improved over what they we're last year.
Vice President Roosevelt, will again
be here, Senator Fairbanks another re-
publican presidential candidate is ex-
pected, and all the big republican poll
ticians of the State, including Senator
Burton, Governor Stanley, Chester |,
Long, General Hudson, Department
Commander, Norton and numerous
others. Come TO town and see the
crowds and the sights, visit your friends
and have good time.

Life on n ranch In Arizona is not
without its own forms Of excitement,
Do,, A.. even though Indian
-, - ~, scares are things
Of the past, A
Chicagoan and his wife recently were
visiting an old friend who owns
ranch near Phoenix. Mrs Lakeside
had gone there for her health and a
17-year-old girl was detailed to wait
upon her, One afternoon mistress
and maid were seated In room to.
gether, relates the Chicago Chron-
icle, when the girl saw a good-sized
rattlesnake coiled in corner not far
from the invalid's chair. The girl
knew the delicate condition OF the
Chicago woman's health and quietly
thought of plan to save her any un-
due excitement. 81 think heard Mr..
Lakeside calling you at the gate" she
said, quietly. The invalid left the
room In search of her husband, and
as soon as she was out of hearing the
girl ran for whip and in few mo-
ments had killed the reptile. She had
just carried it away when Mrs, Lake
side returned, saying that she could
not find her husband. Then the girl
told her what had happened, The Chi
cago man was overwhelmingly and
substantially grateful to the cool
headed maid, who is now installed in
his South side home as his wife's per-
sonal attendant. The rattlesnake's
skin is being fashioned into pocket
books us souvenirs of the nerve try

Only a year has passed since the
census was taken, and yet the in
crease of population in some parts Of
the country is so marked as to arouse
curiosity as to its extent. The gov

population of that territory is now
100000 greater than year ago. The
growth of ali the northwest has also
been remarkably rapid, The oil dis
coveries in Texas will doubtless give
the state considerable impetus. The
