Odd Fellows Enjoy Themselves.

In response to an invitation extended the
grand officers, all the encampments of the
Washington jurisdiction and the Canton
branch of the order. the lodge room of
F. D. Stuart Encampment, No Z. 1. o. o.
F., was crowded to its doors last evening
by the members of those higher branches
of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows.
Inasmuch as 1t was also the semi-annual
visitation of the grand officers to this en-
campment, the Golden Rule degree was eX-
emplitied, and with such effect and rendi-
ton of the various charges and secret work
that an individual examination Of the Off
GERS of the encampment was to certain
extent deemed unnecessary, and the re-
mainder of the evening was turned over to
the committee on entertainment, in charge
of Mr.. J. H. Wood. Mr.. E. B. Hay was Sc
lected to present bouquet of roses to the
grand patriarch, F. D. Seiffert, and did SO
in a speech interspersed with quotations
from Shakespeare and other bards and song
writer's. Mr.. w. H. Mcneil, in a clever
speech, presented similar bouquet to
Capt Brown of the military branch, and,
after songs by Mr.. Harry Shackeford and
addresses by prominent patriarchs, an nd
journment was made to partake Of a COLA
ton.

Fee Allowed Sa1arfed Officers for Ex-
aiming Supposed Lunatics.
The District Commissioners have received
from the controller of the treasury an opin-
lon on the question raised by the auditor
Of the District as to the compensation
which should be- allowed to the visiting
physicians of the; Washington Asylum and
the police surgeons: for examining suspect
ed lunatics. Both the visiting physicians
and the police surgeons are saiaried ofii-
GERS. The act of Congress regulating ad,
missions to the Government Hospital for
the Insane provides that two physicians
shall certify as to the lunacy of the pa
tient, and that each shall be compensated
at the rate Of $40 per diem for his serv-
ices. 1t often happens that the examining
physicians in lunacy cases are the visiting
physicians and police surgeons, and the
question raised was as to whether they
were entitled to double pay in the prem
ises.
The controller decides that the physicians
are entitled to pay in both instances, say
ing that their duties in connection with
the two services are entirely separate and
distinct.

From this table it will be seen
that prohibition Maine, with
about twice the population of
Rhode Island, had about twice
the number of these serious
crimes, and that prohibition
Kansas with about the same
population as Minnesota, had
twice the number of such crimes;
also that Kansas, with only 26
per cent. greater population
than her sister State of Nebraska,
had two and one-half times more
of such crimes.
The average percentage of in
crease in crime from 1880 to
1890 in the North Atlantic States
was 1896 per cent. The in
crease of crime in Maine alone
was 24.o4 per cent, while in the
restrictive license State of Penn
sylvania it was only $40 per
cent. In the North Central
States the average increase in
crime was 300 per cent, but the
increase in Kansas was 3.92 pei
cent, while in the State of Ne
braska it had actually decreased
25. Is per cent.
In 1890 there were 91S convicts
in the Kansas Penitentiary

DesPonjent and discouraged. weary

piping times of prosperity(O fer the
poor man. A. ]. Buckland, one of the
earliest settlers of Great Bend, com.
mitted suicide by taking carbolic acid,
about 1880 p. m. Saturday last. His
brothers. John w. and George, had
been with him in the forenoon. and
others had been talking with him, but
to none did he give an inkling of his
intention to shake this merry old earth
and seek the unknown hereafter of his
own volition. When John w. returned
about 1890 to the old frame building on
the north side of the square where the
brothers made headquarters. he found
the front door locked. On entering, he
saw A. ]. lying on a cot in the back
part of the room. and thought him
asleep. When he attempted to awake
him, he saw that the man was suffer.
ing. Drs. Hess. Connect and Morrison
were summoned. but could do nothing
for the man, and about o'clock he
breathed his last.
He had written letter to his
brother, John W., most of which re.
ferred to private matters; but directing
whom he wanted to have charge of the
remains. and also telling the brother to
telegraph his sons, Ed and Walter, and
daughters. May and Grace, and his

A coroner's jury, under direction of
Justice Jennison, was impaneled and
returned verdict that he came to his
death by poison administered with sui.

| Our people know deceased SO well
that it is but charitable to say little of
his life. He came to Great Bend from
Buffalo, New York, in 1872. and has
resided here since. At one time he
stood high in the community. He was
about 6S years old, and leaves third

two daughters. One of the sons is
a helpless cripple. A SON and two
daughters by his first wife, all residing
In the east, also survive him. A short
time ago he had his S.. 900 policy in
the A. o. U. w. made payable to his
crippled son, naming his oldest son,
Edward, as guardian.
The funeral occurred at p. m.

For Resubmission,

The name of Oscar O'Bleniss. of
the Claflin Clarion, is published as one
of the COMMITTEE of 1907 of the
Nationists OF this county. Mr.. O'Bleu-
i5s says he did not authorize his name
put on the committee, and his position
on the prohibition question, sas puo.
iished in the Clarion of last week,
would indicate that he is not in full
he says:
You can't successfully stop the outlet
OF WAFER at rivers mouth, unless you
would first stop the inlet at ITS head,
and we believe the law Just passed,
which 1t seems is as strong as the En-
ghsh language could make it, will fall
far short of bringing about the desired
| results. 1t will close the open joInt,
| no doubt, but IN its stead will flourish
the drug store. saloon, which is by far
| the worst curse IN form of law that has
ever been confined between the lids of
the Kansas statutes. We favor re-
ers, and while this may not be coDsid-
/ cISQ ny SOAS dS oCiu6 SOod fOfitiSSs
nevertheless, we believe 1t is right.
| The people are now educated regarding
this matter and a vote would show
where they stand on this ali-importait
subject.
| Concerning the placing ef his name
on the list referred to, he says:
| We notice by the Great Bend papers
| of last week that Ia " and order league
was organized over there, and we also
take notice that their list of members
bears the names of a number of people
who knew nothing of the meeting until
they read the report in the papers.
Among the names that are on the list
without any authority. we notice that
of the editor of this paper. We reuse
to be used as a cats paw to rake o;her
tpeople's cbestnuts from the fire, and
we notify the secretary of thatgneeting
to rub US off the list. All this ''jaw-

cent movemenfs for the


peal Of the ~frohibition laws in
Maine 4nd Vermont make a re-
view Of the operations of such
laws in these and other States of
special interest at this time,
writes William 81. Lamar in the
Washington Times. The advo-
Gates of prohibition and local
option laws claim that in COM
munities where they have been
adopted there is more wealth
and less insanity, crime pauper-
ism, ETC., than elsewhere. Do
the statistics sustain these con-
tentions?
In 1890 the population of
Minnesota was about 8 per cent.
and that of Nebraska about 26
per cent. less than the popula-
tion of the prohition State Of
Kansas, yet in 1899 the private
deposits in national banks in
these States were aefallaxas.
Minnesota, a45; ;655, 500; Ne
braska, ~, 1878, 900; while in
sKansas they amounted to only
$24, BOG, 900. In 1870 the popu-
lation of Connecticut was about
liz per cent. more and that OF
Rhode Island about 4S per cent.
less than the prohibition State
of Maine, but the private de.
posits in national banks fol
1890 were: Connecticut, $43, 1913.
900; Rhode Island, $24,24e,o 900,
while in Maine they were only
$40, 100000.
The combined State, county
and municipal debt of Maine il
1890 was $2s 60 per capita
and of Kansas $23 AZ, while
that of Pennsylvania was only
$1s 81; Indiania, $11 Is; Illinois,
$1e 9s; Michigan, So OS; Wiscon.
sin Sc 10, and Nebraska, $14.67
The average combined debt o.
all the States of the Union ir
1890 was $1S Is per capita, sc
we see that for Maine it is $5 At,
and for Kansas $50 81 per capits
greater than the general average
The net State debt of Maine fol
1890 was $5 % per capita, Will,
that of Rhode Island was ST. 2;
and Pennsylvania II cents
Going west we find that for Kan
sas it was 78, cents, but for Ne
braska only "a cents, and for II
linois 81 cents per capita.

some figures from the census o
1890, relative to the most seriou
