In 1864 Miss Patsy Colerain was con-

women in Nelson County. OF an old

she was naturally much sought after

IN FORD COUNTY.
Big Majority for Murdoch High
School Badly Beaten.


In Ford county a good showing wai
made for Victor Murdock, but the high
school proposition, which, II it had beer
properly understood, should have been
carried by d large vote, was badly de-
feated.
The defeat Of the high school PROPOSE
ton is probably to be credited to the
hurried manner in which 1t was handled,
in order to get 1t before the special
election. Many who had not investiga.
ted thought 1t would entail a large
expense; some looked upon 1t as a special
favor to Dodge City. People in the
country at this time Of year are too busy
to take time to investigate matter os
this kind, and we're unwilling to take
any chances on voting for something
that might be undesirable. In most
places where county high schools have
been established, the proposition has
been defeated the first time 1t was put to
a vote.
Afterwards when considered more
carefully the proposition was carried by
a large majority. 1t will doubtless be
that way in Ford county.

Miss Sarah M. futile, daughter Of

was killed by cyclone last Thursday
Is miles northwest Of Kinsley was bur-
led In the Home cemetery last Saturday

Army corps chose for bis text Psalms
6O:4-"'rllou hast given a banner to them

the speaker proved that the stars and
stripes was the chosen emblem Of Christ
who placed them In The hands Of our
people to b. displayed to the whole
world that all nations might learn the
truth. After relating many anecdotes
and sayings Of Grant and bis Generals
the speaker recitcd the following lines:
Some fought their fight but yesterday,
Some back in sixty one.
Itnatters not where'er they fought;
Their fighting now is done. .
When freedoms cause was jeopardlzet
And she for succor cried,
They did not say their country nay,
But nobley fought and died.
Some fought their fight
And gained their rest century ago.
Their crumbling bones
Unmarked by stones,
Their names we do not know.
But though unknown to us
Their names, we hold their memories dear
And we today our homage pay,
And drop the silent tear.
The speaker said that the half hour
fighting at The hornets nest at Shilo was
worth all the pensions Of the country
up to the present day. In this great war
the ratio Of loss Is greater than many
would think at first thought, We read
of the charge of the light brigade at
Balaklava and consider it one of the
greatest plumbers OF the age and say, see
what a loss of life You think it awful,
and it was, but see the ratio, only 81 Fer
cent was their loss, while the loss Of the
LIST Minnesota at the charge of Gettys-
burg was 50 per cent, but they captured
the colors of the enemy and brought
back glory. The four heavy artillery
regiments Of Maine was Is per cent at
Petersburg in seven minutes. The first
rebel Texas regiment loss at Anteitam in
the bloody lane was 81 per cent. At the
same battle fifteen union and the same
number of rebel regiments lost more than
fifty per cent Of their commands. The
loss Of Grant at Cold Harbor was ten
thousand in thirty minutes. The loss Of
Grants army from the first days battle
In the Wilderness to the close of the week
May u, 1864 was more that all the wars
that had been fought on this continent
up to that time. 1t was five times great

The Mystery Of Memory.


Amnesia, or loss OF memory, is
chiefly interesting to the psychologist
as throwing some light on the nature
OF memory itself. A perfect act OF
memory consists of three distinct acts
preservation or fxatlon of certain
states of the nerve cells, reproduction
OF these and, perhaps most remark
able of all, recognition of them as
reproductions in their relations Nor
bid states OF the memory may refer to
any of these phases of an act which
is as marvellous as anything in nature.
There are about three thousand mil
lion nerve cells in the surface of the
human brain; they never die in health
and they are never replaced or added
to. This is memory's machine.
