The lands affected by the Kinkaid
bill have been open to the public as
homesteads. 100 acres each, for
many years, but not being suitable
for agricultural purposes, and 100
acres not being large enough on which
to raise cattle, the lands have never
been taken up by homesteaders.
However, a square mile of this land

Great tracts of this land have been

Homina Piueon Found.

Tuesday morning, about 8 O'Clock,
C. w. Palm found a carrier pigeon in
a dying condition near the Hamilton

The poor bird was still alive when

of the Roosevelt support an found
that 1t was rooted down deep in the

of the managers would avail nothing.

THE PROBLEM OF AGE.

Andrew Wermilen, of Chicago, aget
As, committed suicide because he
could not obtain employment.
Everywhere he applied they told
him he was too old"
He was vigorous and capable, as
his letters of recommendation showed
The letters said he was "sober, in
dustrious and a first-class mechanical
engineer" But he was gray-haired
and had the appearance of an older
man, says an exchange.
Everywhere they told him a young.
er man was preferred. Discouraged,
the man shot himself.
OF course, Wermilen made ghast-
ly mistake He should have accept
ed the inevitable. He should have
sought other employment that tnat he
was accuStomed to and fitted for The
wages might be less and the work un-
congenial, but one cannot always
choose what he wants.
However, the matter of age limit no
longer concerns this man. The weary
search is ended. He will be turned
away no longer because he is too old.
The problem is ourr What snail be
done with the man of As? We have
told him to prepare for his work thor
oughly. We accept his services for
20 years, and when he is in his very
prime discharge him.
The railways say they do not want
clerks after they are AS Mechanical
engineers are too old at that age.
Gray-haired preachers are not wanted
Give us younger men, say the congre.
tions.
And so it goes.

loses immeasurably by the turning
off of its trained workers. And in
finitely worse than the economic loss
is the heartache and disappointment

old horse to cripple along or die,

off with the right sort of cranks and

a bare possibility that in the judg.
ment of some of your friends you may
be crank or a hereto in some one
particular of faith or of lift, if not
in a good many.
But don't be one simply for the
sake of getting your name in the
newspapers. 1t never pays to pose in
this particular. The world is willing
to be led out into larger truth and
light, but the world is too old
and too clever to be long humbugged
In the long run it will deal fairly
by it's cranks and it's heretics. If
they are right-minded, righthearted
men and women, the world may build
their monuments after death, and per-
haps it may praise. them while they

More than forty homes here are dark

who went to their death on the ill fated
cars which were swept into the flood of
water in Dry Creek besides and for
those, numbering several, who lost their
reason when told of the calamity which
had befallen their loved ones.
The calamity is the worst that has
ever fallen on the city. In some i'm

by the flood, an instance being that of
j. @. Thomas, commercial agent Of the
Santa Fe, who with his wife, is among
the lost.
The death list, compiled from the best

six unidentified dead.
The list will probably be increased.
