Sketch of Dr. Tichenor.

SkeCcn or UT. 11CueuOT.
 Rev. Isaac Taylor Tichenor. D. D., was born in Spencer Cod&ty. Kentucky. Mo- vember Il. 1895 He descended from one of the early settlers of this country, his ancestor Daniel Tichenor, having emil grated from Europe to America in 1e44. His grandfather moved from Morristown, N. J.. to Kentucky. during the latter part of the last century. His father, James Tichenor was born in Nelson County, in that State. Having become a Baptist. he named his fourth son, the subject of this sketch, after his pastor, Isaac Fay lor possibly with the hope that he might follow the example of the good man whose name he bore, and become a min- ister of the gospel. If so. his wishes in this respect were grati1ed.
 The feeble health of young Tichenor prevented his receiving the full benefit of a collegiate education. When about IS vars of age he had an attack of the measles which brought him nigh to the grave. From this attack. 1t was said. he never fully recovered. Though in later years his general health was good and he grew to be above medium size, an af- lection of the throat, due to this attack. followed him all his life and interfered no little with his ministerial work. In this state of declining health he came South in the winter of 1S47-s, hoping to find relief in the mild climate of the sunny land.
 Providentiaily thrown into Columbus. Miss, where the church was without pastor, they requested him to spend the winter in preaching for them. This was not in accordance with his plans, but as this influential body of Christians, torn to pieces by dissensions, were unable to agree upon anyone as pastor, he. con- sidering their condition, rather than his own, consented to their request. Without experience, without theological training, without books other than his pocket Bi- hle. he began the work of preaching twice each Sunday to one of the largest and most cultivated churches of the Southwest Before the winter passed they called him to be their pastor. and though he was reluctant to accept so grave a responsibility, they would listen to no refusal and he was accordingly or dained for that purpose in April 1S4S. For more than two years he preached to them the gospel of Christ. and had the satis- faction to see the church united and har- monious and many added to it's num- hers
 In 182 he became pastor of the church in Montgomery Ala, where he laporeo nine years, until failing health compeheo him to resign his position.
 During the war. which began shortly after. he was for more than two years connected with the army as chaplain and missionary At the battle of Shiloh. when his regiment began to waver under a heavy enfilading fire. though himself wounded. he sprang from the ground ana steadying the faltering ranks. held them to their post until the enemy were driven from the field.
 In January. 1863. he returned to his for mer charge in Montgomery; and, through the perilous times of the last years Of the war and the more perilous times Of the years of misealled peace that fol- lowed. he was not only the spiritual guide of his flock, but safe and prudent

Complaints are again coming in
to the state officers concerning the
low prices at which school lands are
sold in Western Kansas. Two or
three months ago State Auditor
Cole received a number of such
complaints. Now Superintendent
Nelson is receiving them.
This time the complaints come
from the citizens of Cove county.
They claim that appraisers general
ly appraise the land at the minimum
allowed by the law passed by the
Legislature, SI.25 per acre, and the
land is sold for that price when it is
worth from two to six times that
amount. AS the receipts from the
sale of school lands go to make up
the state school fund, the state is
the loser by the low price at which
the land is sold, and the complain
ants want to know if there is moi
some way in which the low apprais-
ment can be stopped.
Superintendent Nelson says he
has called the attention of some o.
the county superintendents to the
matter, and they say they are pow.
erless to do anything after the ap
praisers are appointed. The connty
superintendents and the county
clerks appoint appraisers and thu
appraisers let themselves be worked
into putting a low valuation on th'
land. Consequently the people ge
an extremely low price in some o
the western counties which hav,
good school land for sale.-Topek;

GEO. WILEY IS OUT OF A JOB.
Gov. Stanley WIFI Soon Name a
New Fish Commissioner.

From the Kansas City Star, March 20.
George Wiley, state fish commits
sioner, arrived in Topeka yesterday
to investigate the truth of the rumol
that he would lose his position. He
called on Governor Stanley and
shortly afterward said:
"I find that 1 am to go. The
governor did not make any charge
against me, but said that my sue
cessor probably would be appointed
by April I. John Haughey of Wei
lington will get the place. 1 do not
know why 1 am to go unless it is be-
cause Haughey can do more for the
governor in the approaching SEN
atorial contest than l can. l have
done all in the way of my duties that
the meager appropriation would per
nit. 1 have been for Stanley fol-
senator and feel that have not been
treated right"
When asked about ais plans TO,
the future, Wiley said: ''I lived be-
fore 1 had the place and will live
again. I would go back to Meade
county and run for the Legislature
and get a vote on the senatorial
proposition if L had not changed my
residence to Reno county a short
time ago in order to attend to the
duties of my Office better. My COM
mission does not expire until April,
1903, and my removal at this time
leaves me in the air."

HOW TO SHAVE.
And Some Pointers on Keeping a
Razor In Order.

And Some Pointers on Keeping
Razor In Order.
After a shave you should be very
careful to keep your hands away from
your face, as the skin is more tender
then than at any other time. If you
shave yourself, you should have your
razor hOned at least three times year
to keep it in good order. You should
also have a good Strop, with a canvas
part for rough sharpening, as well as
q smoothing strOp.
In buying strOp it is well to have
barber select it; then you will be sure
to get a good one, says the Baltimore
American. Before shaving it is well
to wash the face with soap in warm
water, as there are apt to be germs in
the least little bit of dust or anything
that might be on your face. One can
not be too careful about this, for cut
of the razor, ever SO small, is apt to
make an ugly sore If the skin is not
perfectly clean. A wash before shay
ing will also soften the beard.
All men should learn to use both
hands in shaving. Many attempt to
shave both sides of the face with one
hand and usually succeed in cutting
themselves. In fact, many men cut
themselves whenever they attempt to
shave. This difficulty could be over
come if both hands were used. The
face should be we'll lathered with
shaving soap, kind that does not dry
quickly; then the lather should be well
rubbed in the beard with the tips of
the fingers, which softenS it to such an
extent that one does not have to CON
tend with the razor pulling, which not
only hurts severely, but irritates the
skin.
In cold weather the skin should be
thoroughly sponged in warm water
and afterward in cold water, which
keeps it from becoming chapped. Be
fore the face has been dried little
witch hazel should be rubbed on; then,
after wiping this off, talcum powder is
| good. In case of a cut it is well to
| have a piece of alum at hand, which,
if you dampen and apply to the cut,
will close it up quickly, SO that, II
small, it cannot be seen.
After you have finished using the "a
zor it should be washed, then dried I'M
| til not damp spot remains, then
sharpened On the strop before putting
| back into the case. If these direc-
lions are followed, you will find that
it is not such a disagreeable ordeal to
go through with in shaving yourself.
You will also save time and BARRIERS
