BUYING KANSAS LANDS.
Many Iowa Farmers Choosing Fertile
Kansas Farms.

The following very complimentary no
tice appeared in the Des Moines, Ia,
Honest ead:
THE signal success which Geo. NJ.
Noble & Co. of Topeka, Kas.. met with
in placing many of our readers upon
some advertising in this paper last
spring, has led to their occupying a like
amount of space with US at this time.
AT the risk of repeating something we
may have said of this firm on the fol
nner occasion, we want to say that there
are most Weighty reasons why people
who are intending to locate in Kansas
should get into touch with them. To-
peka is the state capital 1t is the hon y
Of the agricultural department of the
state. It is the natural starting point
for investigation into the resources,
section of the state. But above all. this
firm has accurate knowledge of Kansas
lands and conditions that IS nowhere
else to be found. The man whose name
the firm bears has been uninterruptedly
in this business with Topeka as his base
section of the state, for thirty years. As
representative of eastern loan com
panies, to personally inspect the loans
and pass finally upon them while these
companies were 1oaning $4,000. 600, he
acquired of necessity just the kind of in
formation the proposed investor desires.
No matter in what part of the state a
party desires to locate. an inquiry of
them is certain to be prOfita BILE. They
have on their own books large bodies of
land IN most all the counties. and by
means of their CORES ondence with
other reliable real estate people are en-
abled to cover the entire state. There is
no better plan of getting rightly into the
way of buying lands in Kansas than to
open up correspondence with this firm. .

CAN'T SUPPLY MARKET.
New York Is Still Short on Anthra-
cite Supply.

New York Nov. S-Although coal
company and railroad officials say every
effort is being made to supply this city
with anthracite. it is stated that only
enough is reaching here to supply the
demand-that is, New York is receiving
\ per cent of the output against theOre-
teal requirements of 10 per cent. Coal
dealers who announced the scale of $3.50
a ton recently. were flooded with orders,
as bins had been scraDed clean every
where. and are now forced to admit
their inability to supply the coal prom
ised.
A decided drop in the Temperature
during the past "a hours has caused the
shortage to be eTnDha sized and predic-
tons of a cold wave are adding to the
fears of the consumers.

Well Known People Entertained
at a Luncheon on the
Cable Steamer.

Captain sLeach. of the British cable
ship Anglia, entertained quite a large
party of prominent ladies and gentle
men on board the steamer at lunch
con on Tuesday. Cable matters of
lcourse were under discussion and some
Interesting statements concerning the
work was made, prominent among
which was one to the effect that the
ALFRED" cable would come here.
Among those present were Captain
Won Burskit, of the cruiser Cormoran,
Captain Whiting, naval commandant,
Governor Dole, British Consul Hoare,
Miss Hoare, Captain White, Mr. and

of King Edward, President Roosevelt,

and spoke briefly of cable matters. He
stated that his company had just been
awarded the contract to make and lay
the section of the Commercial Cable
between Honolulu and Manila He said
that this cable was now being manu-
featured at the company's works in
England at the rate of fifty miles day
and that as soon as the Anglia had
finished laying the section of Pacific
Gable between Tanning Island and Fiji. |
thus completing the ALFRED cable, the
Anglia would proceed to England to
take the American cable on board and |!
that he hoped to be at work laying this
cable from Honolulu to Manila Bay
by the first of next March. He also
stated that he believed that at an early I
date branch of the British cable would |
be laid from Tanning Island to Homo /
Lulu
Governor Dole expressed great salts
faction at Honolulu's prospects in
the matter of the cables. He thought |
that it seemed very lucky that wei
should have two cables coming with |
such rush at the same time when
the islands had been working so hard |
for years for a cable and waiting so
long for just one cable. He thought
that these cables would revolutionize
affairs here and that they would great
ly assist in developing the territory.
Captain Whiting proposed the health
of Captain Leach and the officers of the
Anglia, which was honored with the
best of good wishes for the future pros

The luncheon served in the spacious
saloon of the Anglia was a good sam
