OIL TOWN WITHOUT SALOONS.
No Burglars Either, for It's Light All
Night in Chanute, Kan.

CHASUTE, Kan, Oct l5.-This 10 a saloon
less boom town. Kansas has a way Of
springing surprises on the casual conner
and this Is one of them. Scattered through
half dozen counties are fifteen or twenty
towns In which nothing but oil is talked Of.
Chanute is the centre Of the district, and is
proud OF the fact. Along with the oil, of
course, is natural gas, and the waste which
has caused so much anguish in the Indiana
fields is going oh here at a tremendous
rate.
At night the streets and stores are ablaze
with light, The show windows and inter-
iors OF every place OF business are ilu-
minated all night long. and inoandescent
electric lights burn in clusters on every
corner. The town hall Is lighted inside
and out and the stained glass windows Of
the churches show in all their brilliant
oolors. The whole effect is that Of a gala
celebration that never ends.
Burglars are unknown In Chanate Resi-
dents say that is because there is never any
darkness. They figure out that the cost
IL small compared with what is saved in
losses by theft and In the hire Of watchmen
and policemen. Tho city owns the gas
and electric plants.
Everybody talks gas and oil, and tu day
time there Is plenty Of excitement, but
by nightfall the Kansans have exhausted
their interest and by $50 o'clock everybody
is In bed. Hall an hour later there 10 no
one about the hotel Hobbies and there 10
nothing doing anywhere. Without saloons,
there is no rowdinees. There are no dance
halls, no vaudeville houses. An $4,000
theatre in which good plays are produced
each winter is the only relaxation.

nation for pharmacists. being one
of the youngest registered Pharma-
cists in the state.

young men. He is a son of Rev. c.
H. Nash, D. D., pastor of the Bap-
fist church.

could have been made.
