II is said the mayor of Memphis has
encountered no little opposition in his
efforts TO stop gambling in that city.
He asserted his determination TO sup
press the fashionable games as well
as the downtown gambling resorts,
and even told the ladies that whist
parties and progressive euchre where
prizes were offered would not be tol.
Grated in the future This brought
upon him the indignation of those
who are unable To see in such amuse-
ments anything that is harmful or
injurious to public morals Neverthe,
less, the mayor is right in his deter,
mination to show no favors, If gam
bling is permitted in the clubs or al
private entertainments it will be very
difficult to make those who frequent
the downtown resorts see that they
are doing anything wrong.

Irrigation of the Arkansas Valley Is
Certain.

Washington, Sept. 13.-As a result
of the tests of the underf1ow in the
Arkansas valley, Charles S. Siichter,
the engineer in charge, has recon-
monded a site for an infiltration gall
lery in the neighborhood of Deerf1eld,
Kan, at a point one and one-half
miles above the head gates of the
Farmers ditch
Mr.. Slichter is member of the
faculty of Wisconsin university, and
ground waters. Acting under the au-
thority of the chief photographer of
the geological survey, Mr.. SIichter
made preliminary field tests along the
valley of the Arkansas as far back as
1901. He has continued the work
since that time and the conclusions of
his latest tests leave no doubt in his
mind of the certain success of irriga-
ton in the Arkansas valley. In the
opinion of those who have kept in
touch with the series of experiments it
is almost impossible to estimate
the Importance of the latest conclu-
sions of the government engineer.
The operations begun in 1901 will be
completed this month with the tests
of line of stations at Deerfield and
in two locations at Hartland. The con-
sditions at Deerfield have been found to
be the same as those near Garden City
the average ground water velocity be-
ing fully as high. The result of the
tests near Garden City was printed in
the Times Friday morning. The range
of the velocities of the underf1ow near
Hartland have proved to be from six
to twenty-four feet per twenty-four
hours, and the general direction OF the
seepage is in an easterly direction cor
responding to the slope of the valley.
In a pamphlet issued some time ago,
in anticipation of just such reports as
Mr.. Slichter is now sending the de-
partment, is the information that in

MIR. BADGERS NEW PAPER.
Former Topeka Newspaper Man Makes
Original Venture.

Fred Badger who used to work on
with the Kansas City Star and who mas
tried his hand at several country week
lies, the Neodesha Register and Troy
Chief among them, has gone over to
Missouri and has started The Booster,
a weekly newspaper in the village of
Crimson, Grundy county. Mr.. Badger
is an original writer and his paper is
very fresh and breezy.
People who imagine that a country
newspaper consists principally of
patent medicine ads and locals about
the embarrassing of the town fences
and chicken houses should read Bad
gers Booster. 1t is as good in its way
as any of the latter day magazines
which exploit the hobbies of their edi-
tors. In a little piece in small type at
the head of the editorial column,
Crimson in Brief" the editor describes
the good qualities and prospects of the
town and frankly admits it's drawbacks,
among them that sit has about $50 pop
ulation and expectations. 1t is on the
Quincy, Omaha and Kansas City rail-
road" he goes on to say, land two
wagon roads which make it a central
point having direct, though not always
instantaneous communication with
Kansas City, Quincy, st. Joseph, Chi
cago, Spickard and Edinburgh
Crimson is in Missouri but it is
young and has not yet been shown, for
that reason few have seen it though the
cars pause here every day." is another
BadgereSque sentence from the Booster.
Mr.. Badgers name at the top of the
editorial page appears in the following
unique style, IF. w. Badger, IT.
