After driving down to Ellinwood
and back Sunday afternoon, and
diving into numerous mud holes up
to the hub. we cannot blame some of
the Ellinwood people for declining to
drive to Great Bend. There is the
most miserable road, part of the way,
that can be found in the county. 1t
should be put in passable shape be-
fore wheat hauling commences.

Shooting Among the Italians.

Chicago, July 11.-Andrew Curee,
fruit broker knowa throughout the,
country, was shot and fatally wound
ed today by Antonio Crecie,a brother
in-law and business rival. Family
and business troubles was the cause.
Creole was rescued from a threaten
ing mob by police reserves, who drew
pistols and duse clsbs.
Every day or so we hear of some
stock being killed by lightning while
in the pasture. Mr.. Besser of Iowa
says that does not happen any more
in his locality, for the farmers use the
very simple remedy of putting
ground wires on their fences Take
piece Of galvanized wire, fasten one
end to the top wire on the fence and
run the other end into the ground
few feet, then staple to each of the
other lower wires. Let the upper end
stick up above the post few inches.
Do this about every 200 yards along
your fence and the stock inside will
have perfect protection from light
ming. The wires running into the
ground carry the electricity down, and
the wires on the fences serve as
magnet to draw the bolt of electricity.
Hon. c. F. Diffenbacher returned
Monday morning from Missouri to
look after his wheat harvest. He
was in St. Louis at the big conven-
ton until Friday night, and says it
was the biggest and most enthusiastic
national convention ever held. While
coming home through eastern Kansas
he was terribly grieved at the great
damages farmers were suffering all
along the river valleys from the high
waters.

DuNng the course OF his speech he
offered several amendments, none of
which were accepted. He said among
other things that if the sending of the
reply to Parker was a declaration for
the gold standard, this convention
should be honest and say so frankly.
Loud applause greeted his statement
that it was a manly thing in Judge
Parker to express his opinion before
the convention adjourned, but that it
would have been manlier thing had
he spoken before the convention met.
Daniel, Weaver and others spoke
on the proposition, and the food of
oratory continued until after midnight,
when by vote of TIA to 191, as I'M
officially announced, the reply was
ordered sent and the incident closed.
Every Southern state lined up in
defense of a gold standard declaration
rather than see the party split in frag-
ments. The east of course stood firm
and driven to the extremity, compelled
to choose between Bryan and their
new nominee, the free silver states
of the west gave majority vote for
Parker.

A physician in Paris has discover
ed that riding in an automobile is
cure for tuberculosis. He speaks
from experience having recovered
his own health by regularly cover
ing one hundred miles a day in an
open car. He AYERS that by this
remedy the cough OF tuberculous pa
TENTS is gradually abolished, OF
greatly diminished, and healthy
sleep and appetite produced. 1t is
most essential that the body should
be duly protected from cold. The
elements Of the cure are the long
stay in the open air and the increas-
ed atmospheric pressure due to the
rapid motion, which expands and
strengthens the lungs. While &C
lively engaged in professional work
he found time to drive twice a day
about fifty miles, and IN year he
had lost his cough, recovered his ap-
petite, gained fifteen pounds in
weight, and largely expanded his
chest capacity. He cites the similar
experience Of many medical friends.
