fire with mulberry tree grown in
Shakespeare's garden, which he leas-
ed. Rash man, forbear!" cried two
enthusiasts. They bought the wood
and with it made chair, which has
just been sold at auction in London
for 1925.
The Paris opera took in only $780,
900 last year, the Opera Comique and
Theater Francois about 100000 each.
But money goes further there.
A shrewd observer of the British
court calls Queen Alexandra "the
most wonderful woman I have ever
SEEN" says that the standard of beauty
of debutantes was not high. and adds:
Most of the women struck me as be-
ing rather small"
DIR. Ellicott, bishop of Gloucester,
seems to prove that railway accidents
are healthful. Many years ago he
was injured in one. The company
gave hi ma life pass, and he still uses
it at eighty-four.
Prince Edward. eight years; Prince
Albert, seven, and Princess Victoria,

fashioned flowers. To the west of this
stands the large orchard where all the
tru1t trees native to Kansas are grown
When asked why he remains in the
country, Governor Bailey will invaria-
bly, reply, Because I like it.. He says
his farm is the dearest place in the
world to him and as such has associa-
tions that have no money equivalent.
Governor Bailey was educated in a
district school, Mount Carroll high
school, and lastly in the University of
Illinois, from which he was graduated.
Along this line he is well able to guide
the affairs of state.
He first appeared in politics in the
safest, surest place for any politician
at home. 1t was readily seen that the
young man who could make a speech as
easily as he could handle pillow should
be a leader. In 1888 he was sent to the
state legislature, where he did work
which made his friends proud of him
In 1896 he was a candidate for congress-
man from the First district, but was de-
feated. Next he faithfully performed
the duties of congressman-at-lar for
one term then was dishonesty defeat
ed when he again wished to represent
his district.
Mr. Bailey has pronounced ideas about
personal honesty. He believes a man.
word should be as good in politics as ii
be as good as a bond. He is a man of his
word and therein lies the secret of his
i
will be long in the public eye. Gov. Bailey
has had good experience in business;
is a fine judge of men, and his decisions
rendered are fair, even though severe. His
popularity is shown by the great majority
received when he was chosen governor.
Coy Bailey is not a loud, boasting
prohibitionist but is a practical temper
ance man. When he laid out the town of
BaileyVille he put a clause in each deed
that whenever intoxicating liquor is sold
on the lot, said lot becomes the property
of the original owner. He is the personi-
ffcation of integrity; not even a breath
of suspicion has ever attacked his fair
name. No stories have appeared about
him, for there were none to tell. His lie
has been clean. His principles are best
shown by his own words. In speaking of
Do Right club he says: I Joined my
Do Right club at my mothers knees
and reaffirmed my alleEience to it upon
reaching my majority
This state does not boast of another
man who, engrossed in political matters,
has. shown the, devotion to his, parents
that W Bailey has. During his cam
paign of 1893 he cancelled all dates and
went home so that he might be with his
mother in her last illness. The same
thing again happened when, while runnin g
for governor he remained at the bedside
ITO know Mr.. Bailey is to like and re-
spect him. He captures people by greet
ing them with a hearty hand-shake and
a manner so free from insincerity that it
at once makes him friends, and friend
ships made with him are lasting
mo matter what has been said to the
contrary. it is always safe to judge a
man by the estimation in which he is
held by his neighbors. In Baileyville you
have only to mention the name of Gov.
that speaks for itself In fact, none name
him but to praise him. 3"

TWO TOWNS LOSE.
Z. N. G. Companies Taken from
Ottawa and Concordia.

Concordia and Ottawa have each lost
their militia companies, and Clyde and
Council Grove are the gamers thereby.
The Concordia company will be mus
tered out and the number and equip
ment will be given to a company to be
organized at Clyde. The Ottawa com
pany will be mustered out and the
equipment sent into the arsenal at To-
pelka, while new equipment will be is
sued to the Council Grove company
which will take the place of the Otta-
wa company
This action was decided upon today
at meeting of the state military
board. The Concordia company is COM
pany L, Second regiment. Clyde, which
will be given the letter and equipment
of the Concordia company, is only Is
miles from Concordfa, and is in the
same county. The Ottawa company is
company E, First regiment The new
Council Grove company will take this
letter and belong to the First regi-
ment-
1.-The reason for making these
changes" said Adjutant General KEEL
sey today, lis because some of the Off
GERS have moved away from Concordia
and Ottawa, and it is difficult to fill
their places with men of experience
and otherwise it is difficult to keep a
company W to the required standard
of efficiency. Both Clyde and Council
Grove have had applications in for
companies for q. long time, and there is
every prospect for good organizations
at both points"

good reason for again postponing sale

We do not think. however. that in do

that practically every house desiring
