K. W. U. SCHOLARSHIPS.
President Roach Sends Them to GoodIand
Students.

President Roach Sends Them to GoOdIand
Students.
President Roach, of the Kansas IVES
leyan university, of Salina, has made
an exceptional offer in the way of
scholarships to the FIVE best student
graduates of the Sherman county high
school.
He has done this because he has an
unusual interest in the educational vel
fare of Goodland and Sherman county,
and because, the Kansas Wesleyan has
received a number of recruits from this
county. They number two graduates
from the liberal arts course, one from
the normal course, one now with the
rank of junior, and in the business de-
Partment something like six young Peo-
have received their training there.
In a letter to H. W. Stewart, Presi-
dent Roach mentions the sending of the
scholarships and says: 81 have Isent
Professor Mallory FIVE scholarships for
the Sherman county high school grad
yates, one for a year, and the other
four for a term each. We would like
to have them all down here the coming
winter. have made these scholarships
good for any time during the next two
years. No other college in the state is
offering the same privilege"
Professor Mallory viii, if he has not
already done so, determine the rank of
the graduates and present the scholar
ships.

SAID THEIR eoO0-sYEs.
High school Glass Of six Graduated Fri
day Evening.

Jay evening
That the large audience that greeted
the graduates of the Sherman county
high school at the opera house Friday
night enjoyed what was said by the
speakers goes without saying; although
in aPplauding the audience did not
overlap itself.
The stage was amply decorated with
flowers and house plants and class
colors. Above depended the class mot
to: 'virtus, sua gloria, - in large yell
low letters. The hall was brilliantly IL
Illuminated and a goodly number of our
towns people, and friends of the school
were in attendance.
A piano duet by Mrs. George
Fuller and Mrs. A. D. Stewart was the
first number of the program, after
which a march was played while the
class marched to their seats upon the
platform The invocation was given
by Rev. J. E. Stevens, followed by a
song by a male quartette.
In a general way It may be said that
the six graduates acquitted themselves
well. Some remarked upon the excel
Ience of this one or that one, and after
all was said, words of commentator
extended to the efforts of the whole
class.
As Professor Mallory said IN present
ing the diplomas, the graduates had
been Pains-taking and faithful students.
Grace Roth, one of the class, gave an
Grafton upon 1.-The Old and TIE New, -
and in the course of the speech said
some catchy things about love, which
came home with new power the next
morning when It was learned that Miss
Grace was married that night.
Among the songs rendered on the
program was one sang by Professor 9.
". Mccormick, assistant principal,
bass solo entitled, "Out Where the
BiIlOws Roll High which showed an
unusual compass OfvOice.
The diplomas presented the gradu-
ates are good for entrance to college,
and the occasion was one long to be
especially by the mem
bers of the class. The names of the
six graduates are: May Marshall, Der
tina Erickson, Bessie Waters, Grace
Roth, Pearl Kimmel, Beulah Roth.

". E. Ward, register, and c. c.
Evans, receiver, of the Colby land Of
fee, have sent out circular letters to Of
6ceri before final proofs are taken.
The letter has date of July q, and is
as follows:
1--WE understand that it is the
prevalent opinion of the people
that a visit of once IN six months
constitutes residence on the homestead
and complies with the homestead laws.
Toe following is the law upon the sub
ject:
g He must, within six months after
making his entry, establish his actual
residence upon the land, and must re-
side upon and cultivate the land con-
tinuously in accordance with law for
the term of FIVE years. Occasional
visits to the land once in six months or
oftener do not constitute residence.
The homestead party must actually
inhabit the land and make it the home
of himself and family, as well as i'm
prove and cultivate it.
You are, therefore, directed 70 instruct
witnesses when answering question six
of testimony, that they are not to an
swer: He has resided continuously
when, in fact, ne has been absent. IN
question seven, the absences should be
given as nearly as possible IN detail as to
number and length. Be careful to have
this correct. Unless proofs are properly
written, they are liable to be delayed
for investigation and, perhaps, finally
rejected.
also we note many proofs coming
in with questions answered yes and
no They are not complete answers.
Read note at bottom of testimony blank.
''In communion proofs, that a resi-
dence of fourteen months after date of
establishing residence thereon is re-
quired, excluding the six months al
lowed for establishing residence.
1--WE receive requests from officers
for blanks and wish to say that officers
are requested to surnish their own
blanks. We furnish blanks to claim
ants upon their request of an officer,
giving name of party desiring to use
blank
Careful conformity to the above is
required"

Strewn Over the Ground.
In the Thunderstorm that swept parts
of this county Monday evening, consider
able damage was done by a small sized
tornado that dropped ont of the heavy
cloud near the home of Alex West,
seven miles south of GOOdland 1t
struck the barn and the granary of the
West place, tearing them all to pieces
and strewing the lumber over the
prairie for a considerable distance. As
usual It performed some didOs, and one
was that it picked a pair of side-boards
of wagon standing in the yard and
carried them 200 yards away, leaving
them on the prairie in as good condi-
ton as when it took them. In the
barn was horse and a calf, but they
were not at all injured. The house was
swept by the outer edge of the twister,
which blew one of the glass out of
the window and hurled It on the table
at which Mr.. West was eating his sup
per.
The storm was accompanied by hail,
and in places considerable damage was
done to crops. The farm where West
is living is owned by Albert Harms.

ROOSEVELT AND FAIRBANKS
BoTH CHOSEN BY NATIONAL ooEVKE-
TIoH ~ ACCLAHATI0E.
vice-PresidontiaI Candidate ths Senior
Senator From Indiana, and n Kan OG
Giant HeiEht--No ConventiOn right,
and Platform Launched.

Theodore Roosevelt for president and
Charles ". Fairbanks for vice president
received every vote of the national re-
publican convention at Chicago last
Thursday.
As TO the nomination of Roosevelt for
president there had long since been no
doubt. but the vice presidency was in
the balance of public opinion and no
one seemed to know what man would
swing the beam with the most weight,
until the political forces had assembled
at Chicago. The Fairbanks boom then
gathered TO itself new strength every
hour, and the delegated power of the
various states moved toward the Indi-
ana man, who gained second place of
honor on his Party's ticket by accla-
nation.
Ten thousand people were present at
the convention hall on the nominating
day, and among that vast throng was
William Walker and William Ennis, old
timers of GoOdland and Sherman
county.
When Ex-Governor Black, of New
York, made his speech nominating
President Roosevelt to suCcehd himself
as president, there was tumultuous ap-
plause, upon the heels of it, that lasted
twenty minutes. The New York dele
CATION paraded the hall shouting at the
top of their voices. Others joined the
procession, and the convention that had
before been more or less orderly be-
came a pandemOnium, every semblance
of organization gone. While the dem
onstration was at its height, Chairman
Cannon stepped to the front of the
platform holding in his hand the ban
ner which was waved in 1850 when
Lincoln was nominated, and which has
been used in every national republican
convention since. The flag bore the
appearance of age and of many con-
flicts.
Leaving out the more moderate ap-
plause which greeted the nomination of
Fairbanks, the convention was less
noisy and stormy than the typical ma
tional convention. The harmony of
the convention necessarily places it not
in the same class with some other con-
ventions where great principles were
being fought up and down by forces in
the same party, or, where in the conflict
for political supremacy, the hopes of
men ambitious for the highest honOrs in
the nation have been turned back for
ever
Fairbanks is the senior senator from
Indiana, and is a man of extraordinary
height, being six feet and four inches
tall. He spent his boyhOOd days on
farm; later worked his way through the
Ohio Wesleyan university, and after
wards studied law, his analytical mind
and keen penetration winning for
him high position with some of the
largest corporations in the country.
George B. COrtelyOu, secretary of the
department of commerce and labor,
was elected chairman of the republican
national committee, to succeed the late
Mark Hanna.
A platform was adopted, which
among other things, contains a promise
to consider the tariff question, and
perhaps, If the administration wins the
election, to revise the present law, and
put into effect some wholesome changes
along the line of needed reforms.

STEAL FROM MONEY DRAWER.
Three Boys Take SIO.I5 from the Poster
Lumber Company.

Three Boys Take eIO-I5 from the Poster
Lumber Company.
Forest and Thomas DOugherty and
Arthur Davis spent the money they
stole from the money drawer in the Of
fee Of the Foster Lumber company
Friday morning so lavishly that they
soon found themselves under suspicion,
and a sweating process uncovered their
wrong doing. Money was no object,
only the means. II came easy and it
went that way. They started to buy out
HOdgkinson's store and succeeded to
the extent of a jack-knife and a straw
hat apiece, and 6recrackers, candy and
gum were purchased wholesale.
The boys celebrated and had a good
time all day. They perhaps never
thought that that night when T. E.
Townsend, manager Of the Foster yard,
was hunting and thinking where in the
world the SOL shortage could be, that
Nemesis is always camping on the trail
Of the boy who goes wrong. But that
is what happened, as it has ten thous-
and times before. Boys at ten and
fourteen years Of age don't generally
have that much at their fingers ends
nor use It that way. Inquiry as to the
reckless spending, and hunting and
wondering where the lost money might
be, soon formed the web that tangled
the wayward feet.
Now tn ey are in the hands of the law,
and as soon as County Attorney Muir
ply returns from his trip to Fort Col
Inns, Colo, the boys will be brought be-
fore Justice Floyd, and some stern
advice administered. They are sorry,
and wish the whole thing were blotted
out and the harvest of regret turned
back.
The money was taken at $50 O'Clock
while Mr.. Townsend and his helper were
out working in the yard One boy pulled
open the drawer, and the money looked
so good, desire was more than fear.
The parents Of the boys are in quite
moderate circumstances, and only a
part of the amount was at hand 20 be
paid back. They live in the southwest
part Of town. Forest Dougherty is IA,
and Thomas Dougherty and Arthur
Davis are 10 years old.
Without attempting 70 assign a cause
of the wrong act of these boys, the fact
still remains that raising boys OF girls
in the way they should go is the noblest
of undertakings, yet fraught with
tremendous responsibility.
