PRAIRIE
The Birth of the Rose.

How gre thee, Rose. upon thy stem,
Like any regal diadem?
What artists subtle genius traced
Thy petals, delicate and chaste?
What passing angel breathed in thee
The soul of her W purity.
That from thy majesty of bloom
EXhales for me a sweet perfume?
Who babe thy velvet leaves unfold
That |. in passing. might behold
The beauty OF the sod and sea
And sunlight all distilled in thee?
Who set thee on thy thorn and bush,
Who made thee pale or bade thee blush
When the rude west wind steals and
sips
The sweetness of thy velvet lips?
What subtle trick of alchemy
From clod and clay has fashioned thee?
What union of the earth and air
Was this. to rear a child so fair?
Or did some angel zeal a smile
From God to Earth. and by some vile
Or art of IMAGERY she knows
Command it then to be a Rose?

The Original Story.

stC OtiSiUdi StOIy'
Il caught the original fish and boiled
him in a hot spring not ten feet away.
and then wrote the Chicago Tribune.
I can stand in these mountains with
my fishing line. catch a fish in a pool
of water on one side and toss it into
a pool or the other side. where it will
boil for dinner The Tribune printed
what | wrote. but its staff set me down
for a first class liar, and every one
who read the tale believed the same
thing.
Times have changed and the rail
road has been built and the children
of the people who called me the orig
inal Yellowstone liar are now standing
by that river, catching fish and boiling
them every summer. Then they write
home about it and keep the story alive.
THE party of surveyors sent out by
the promoters of the new railway We're
accompanied by six companies of regu-
i as tHC tOuHtIN was lHcIl lull VI
hostile Indians who were ready to
massacre any lone white man. We set
out in the early summer of 1871 from
Fort Rice, on the Missouri. some miles
from the present city of Bismarck. n.
d., and plodded westward all summer
until we came t the Bad Lands.
Different Country Now.
THE country was new and strange
to us, and we lost our way and would
never have come out had it not been
for Indian guides. who piloted us
through that fantastic region. Late
in the fall we finally reached Boze-
man. Mont, which was the end of
our journey It took many weeks to
v a distance that is now covered
by Northern Pacific trains in about
eighteen hours.
From BoZeman other parties were
sent out, and they finally found the
way through the mountains ovel
which the railway was built later. 1,
has been an exceedingly interesting
experience to travel over the same
ground OF comfortable trains and t(
think about the h%ardships of our 65(
mile tramp in the early days. The
development Of the country has beer
amazing and beyond all our expecta
tons"

YIELD OF ALAFLFA
SEED VERY LIGHT
Corn Growing Weather Does.
Not Bring Big Yields.
FOUR TO SIX Blu. PER ACRE
With Big Hay Crop Makes.
Grower Good Returns.

The first of this seasons crop of alfalfa
seed came in yesterday from j. T. Giles
farm, north of town. Mr.. Giles has
sixty acres of alfalfa, ano expects to
get something over two hundred bushels
from this crop. Alfalfa seed this year
is of extra good quality, better than
seed raised in any former year, but the
yield is only little more than half what
il was two years ago, the bumper alfalfa
the farmers who saved the second crop
of hay for seed have threshed it yet. but
those who have reported yields of from
four to six bushels per acre, but the seed
is large, fully ripened, and there is little
light seed to be found. Mr.. Giles brought
1.200 pounds of seed in yesterday, and
Ross Bros. began cleaning it. After run
ming through a good many bushels they
found but very little of light and chaffy
seed, and not more than two or three
bushels of the entire load will be put up
as second grade seed. 1t is all first
grade.
Alfalfa-raisers have found that good
corn weather Is not good alfalfa weather.
Alfalfa was heralded as a dry weather
forage plant, and the experience of grow
ers in this section have found that the
yield of seed is by far the greater during
a dry season. Two years ago it will be
remembered that the alfalfa yield was
eight and ten bushels per acre. or even
more than that, and nearly every grower
in this section put his second crop into
the stack and threshed it for seed, and
some phenomenal returns from the land
were reported.
This year Sedgwick county will have a
good corn crop from the late planting
as there has been plenty of rain during
the time the crop was growing and ma
turing, but the alfalfa seed crop has
been cut down from this same cause.
The second crop Of hay made close to
two tons per acre in some sections. over
a ton per acre in all, but the seed did not
mature. There is more straw to go
through the machine this year than two
years ago, but the seed is rather slow
in coming out of the machine.
The alfalfa-growers are not feeling very
bad about the yield, however. They have
harvested one great crop of hay, the
second crop was left for seed, which turns
out five bushels per acre. and the grower
still has the hay to feed, and with
favorable season this fall the grower
will harvest another crop.
Alfalfa seed is worth on the market to-
day 81 per bushel and 1t is hard to get at
that price Alfalfa hay is worth almost
an equal price per ton, and there are
very few fields of alfalfa more than a
year old that will not produce at least
four tons per acre this season. so that
the farmer with a field of alfalfa is sure
of getting a return of better than $50 for
every acre of alfalfa

got her hands on is one of the principal

can railway, chartered in Oklahoma to
build railroad from Alaska to Buenos
Ayres, Argentine Republic This city did

was likely to get anything of this kind
or that the project of such magnitude
was even being formed.
The incorporators are good and wise
men for they have picked only the best
towns in the world for their business
headquarters. The incorporators are
Chas. F. Beach, Jr.. of London; NJ. L.
huffman and Chas. NJ. Rawlings. of
New York; Chas. B. Williams of Mex
leo City: Ewers White. Austin NJ Coffin

Pronounce Punishment
BUT JUDGE COULD NOT

when This Was Told Him.

John Hanson, the young German
charged with mortgaging property which
he did not own, was arrested early yes
terday morning by the police and when
he was taken before the city court yes
terday asked that sentence be pro-
nounced as quickly as possible.
When the prisoner appeared before the
court Judge Alexander read the COM
plant and asked if he wanted a prelim-
mary trial. No replied the prisoner,
with a tremor in his voice, m guilty;
can't you give me my sentence now
and let me begin serving it?'
Judge Alexander told him that the
charge was one in which the city court
could only bind him over to the district
court, where he would be allowed to
plead guilty.
THE district court does not begin for
several weeks yet, does it," asked the
prisoner.
He was informed that it did not. but
that Judge Dale would be home in
week or so and the case could be ad-
vanced on the docket so that he could

Can't you give me my sentence now"
insisted Mr. Hanson. I'm guilty and
do not want to prolong the matter any
more than / have to.
The matter was explained to him, but
John Hanson wanted to begin serving
his sentence. He waived the preliminary
hearing and was bound over to the dis
trict court under $50 bond. which he was
unable to give and was sent TO Jail. he
was greatly affected and was sadly dis
appointed when he could not be SEN
fenced
John Hanson went to Maise Thursday
and represented to III. B. Marshall OF
the firm of ]. T. Norris Co. that he
had eleven hundred bushels of wheat
and wanted one hundred dollars. He
signed a chattel mortgage for that
amount giving as security two hundred
bushels of the wheat Mr.. Marshall gave
him a check on the Colwich State bank
for the amount Hanson came TO Wich-
ita that evening and began spending his
money and was found in a saloon about
2 o'clock yesterday morning. Less than
ten dollars of the money was found on
him when searched at the police station.

HOMEGROWN WArERMEIONS
Are Appearing on Market in Large
Quantities

There are plenty of home grown water
melons on the market at present and the
price is reasonable from 10 TO 30 cents
apiece. There were several loads on the
market yesterday although the supply
was not large enough to fill all calls
These are not the first home grown mel
ons to appear, but there have been many
melons returned because they were
green.
Sweet potatoes are coming in rapidly.
although they are still selling at 3 and 4
cents a pound. Tomatoes have dropped
off some and they are of better quality
The prices on all kinds OF fruit remain
high and there is not much chance of
getting them lower, as most of the fruit
has to be shipped In.
