Nothing is said in the premature offer
about giving the grounds for that
stately structure. but then the new
state will be rich in promise, if not
in coin, and the ground selected can
easily be purchased for one and one

Two Fires

The one story frame house on Ashby
Ave-, belonging to Warren Ditmars,
was pretty well destroyed by fire
about O'Clock Monday morning.
The house was unoccupied. The
house was insured for $500.
At about toe same time his big
barn On his farm, about mile from
town, was found to be In flames. The
barn with 4 head of horses, Scows
and large quantity OF hay and grain
were destroyed. The contents Of the
barn was the property Of Mr.. Duffey,
There was an insurance Of $500 on the
barn.
1t seems very peculiar that Mr.
Ditmars should suffer these two losses
on property 80 far apart, at the same
hour. The whole business was,
doubtless the work Of some person or
persons who desired to injure Mr..
Ditmars. The matter is being in
vestigated and 1t is to be hoped the
guilty ones can be caught.

Live stock receipts at Kansas City
last week.
Only $4,000 cattle arrived here last
week, about half the run each week
lately. Almost as many corn fed
cattle as usual came In, though, and
this kind lost Is to rs cents, beginning
with Tuesday. Most of these corn
steers were short fed, and sold at a. so
to IS and only one droye was good
enough to bring above s6, they selling
at 1928 Wednesday. There was some
improvement toward the last OF the
week, and the cheaper grades OF steers
closed the week about steady. All
other kinds of cattle but corn fed
steers gained from 20 to 35 cents
during the week, account of short
supply. The run today Is 1900 here,
and with big runs at all the markets,
prices are steady to 10 cents lower.
Packers bought all kinds OF grass
cattle excerpts Gamers about steady
today, and stockers and feeders are
nearly steady. Grass cows sold up to

to 1925. A good many sales Of
stockers and feeders were at 1915 to
1915, with few choice ones at $3.75
to 4.25, but these prices will hardly
stick thss week, with a normal run.
Quite good many cattle are to come

The English "Society Of the Pre-
vention Of Consumption" presided
over by the Prince Of Wales, was
recently addressed by Sir William
Broadbent, who stated that 1t was
definitely known that every case Of
consumption began with a germ com.
municated from some other case.
There is no such thing as inherited
consumption. There may be local
weakness which tends to consumption,
but the germ has absolutely to be
planted In that weak spot before con-
sumption can ensue. This ought to
comfort thousands Of people who have
"weak ,chestsp or weak lungs
They are not foreordained victims OF
this dread disease. All that is needed
to bid absolute defiance to this deadly
scourge, Is to able to strengthen the
weak lungs, and build up Q strong
body. The answer to this need is
found in Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery. 1t SO purities the blood
and increases the blood supply, that
disease is thrown of, and the weak
organs are nourished into perfect
health, which defies germs Of every
kind. People, given up by doctors,
