Fourth Of July Picnic.

The Fourth of July picnic at Wires
grove was enjoyed immensely by all
who attended. The starting point was
from the home of the chaperon, Mrs.
D. A. Baugher. Every one was
"styled up" in their farmer clothes to
celebrate the occasion. Among the
various enjoyments of the day were
the reptile killing and the climbing Of
Mount Wire, which is the largest hill
on the range south of the river. The
top was crested with thistle down,
giving the appearance of snow, and
although it was not cold on top it was
a little sharp. It suggested the climb
ing of Pixies Peak-even to the dom
keys.
Luncheon aud supper were both
served in the grove and were very de-
licious. Mrs. j. F. Wire invited
everybody TO the cherry orchard
which was literally loaded with lovely
black cherries. They were delicious,
and many delightful minutes were
spent there. Shortly after supper the
picnickers became tired and started
for town, arriving about $50 p. M,
looking very much "pycnyckfyed."

Couldn't Paw Fine

Charley Hetzel took on too heavy a
load of fire water last Friday and was
unable to navigate without making
more noise than, is contemplated by
the city ordinances. Sheriff Moletor
suggested to him that he had better
look for some secluded place where
his comments onapeople and affairs
would not disturb any one Hetzel
couldn't see it that way and went af-
ter his knife. He was promptly dis
armed by Ralph Bidwell while his
arms were held by the sheriff. Hetzel
was fined $13. so ia police court but
failed to stop talking before he was
out of the Office so the Judge raised
the fine another ten. The money was
not Forthcoming so Hetzel was taken
to the Jail. The arrangements made
for him there were not to his liking
and he refused to go into cell and
defied the sheriff. He went into the
cell few moments later but had a
bad headache for the next hour.

Commissioners Meeting.

The commissioners were in session
three days this week but il was a very
uneventful meeting to everybody but
Carlson and McAfee. These men
were sentenced about two mouths ago
to go tojail for 80 days and pay Fl inc
of 500 each for selling liquor. 1t was
represented to the board that they
were unable 20 pay their fines and as
they had already served about 30 days
over time. it was decided to let them
go that they might have opportunity
to get into the harvest field. -
J. 1. Brelsfcrd and Frank Spring
were appointed to assist the probate
judge in making the quarterly exami-
nation of the treasurer's accounts.
The reports of the Mitchell road
petition were approved. The road
was rejected.
Quite number of tax compromises
were acted upon but none were of any
particular interest.

Two More Teachers to be Named.

Our school board has not as yet
completed the selection of teachers for
our schools for the coming year. 1t
is expected to add one teacher who
will take some classes and also teach
manual training. Miss Blanche WILL
Jams goes to the Larned schools and
Miss Winifred Blanchard will not
teach. Her sister, Miss Kittie, will
have the third and the fourth grades
on the North Side. Mrs. Angus and
Miss McMichael will have the pri.
mary rooms. Miss Grace Williams
will have the same grades as last
year. This leaves the manual train
ing teacher and the assistant princi-
pal still to be selected.

Rattlesuake and Rabbit.

Joe Schnobble was crossing G. L.
Matthew's pasture Monday and shot a
rabbit which fell into a prairie dog
hole. Joe says he looked down the
hole and could see the rabbit plainly
and started to reach for it. Then he
thought of snakes and took another
look. He did not see any snake and
concluding he had clear sailing reach
ed for the rabbit. He failed to con-
meet, but a rattler made connections
all right and caught him just above
the wrist. Joe forgot all about the
rabbit and as soon as he disposed OF
the snake started for town in a hurry
A companion stopped at C. r.
Piburn's and telephoned DR.. DeTar
that a caller was coming, so the doctor
had everything ready and fixed Joe
up in the shortest possible space OF
time. Reports received the next day
indicated that it takes more then
snakes to knock one of the Schnobble
boys out of the harvest field.

Kicked by q Horse.

Clifford Shaw was kicked by a
horse Monday and very badly in
jured. He was at his uncle's, G. L.
Mathews, and about two o'clock. in
the afternoon drove the horses into
the barn. The horses became fright
ened and one of them kicked him on
the side of the head and fractured his
skull. Fortunately the horse was
barefooted and the injury was not SO
severe as it might have been, but it is
bad enough as it is. He was uncon-
scious for about Is hours. Drs.
Haynes and DeTar were called and
dressed the wound and think the little
fellow will recover all right, but it
will be a close call.

Work Was Stopped.

Work on the pit for the Moses ele-
vator came to a sudden stop last Sat-
urday. NJ. G. Tubbs has been holding
a lease on the ground for some years
and it seems that the railroad COM
pany cancelled his lease and gave the
ground to the Moses people without
consulting him. The latter claimed
that he was entitled to hearing be-
fore his lease could be cancelled and
feeling aggrieved at the company he
got out a restraining order and
stopped the work. He will get his
hearing all right but the chances are
that the work will only be delayed a
few days. The fact that there was no
room for new elevator when the
farmers wanted a site but plenty of
room when the Moses people wanted a
site. indicates about what will happen
to Mr.. Tubbs

and said they would return the next

Creamery Goes Into Bankruptcy.

The patrons of the Shady Grove
creamery, of Hutchinson, are holding
the sack. They have got six weeks
cream in that they have received no
pay for and the concern has gone
into bankruptcy. W. E. Fravel, who
has been representing this company
in this locality. has transferred his
business to the Continental people of
Topeka. The chances are that the
people of the Shady Grove concern
will get their money but they will be
compelled to wait awhile.

Spearville Was Easy.

On Monday, July 4, an aggregation
of Kinsley ball players iourneyed to
Spearville to play the team at that
place. Up to within half an hour of
the game the Kinsley players scarcely
knew how their team would be ar
ranged. The greatest concern was
over the question of a catcher, but
this problem was solved by the ap-
pearance of Radcliffe, of Pawnee
Rock, who was on the way to Spear
vile and who was engaged to do the
back-stop performance for the Kins-
ley team. His work behind the bat
was entirely satisfactory, and Peter
son in the box cut loose in fine style.
In fact the Kinsley battery was almost
the whole thing in this game, as the
score will readily show. Only four of
the regular Kinsley team were in the
game Monday, and considerable doubt
was expressed as to the ability of the
patched-up team to land the purse.
This was very easily accomplished,
however, and every Kinsleyite felt
pretty good over the result. The
Spearville team was composed of
husky-looking individuals, but the
way they tossed the ball around and
loaded up the error column indicated
that they have lots to learn about the
national game.

Cast Iron Columns.
Engineering Authorities Condemn Theil
Use in Tall Buildings.

use IN TAN Buildings.
Discussion is going on in the
columns of engineering periodicals
regarding the use of cast-iron col
umns in tall buildings, and the opin-
ions seem to run all one way. The
Engineering Record" publishes an
editorial article expressing the opin-
ion that cast-irOn columns should be
disused by the building departments
of cities, as they were twenty-five
years ago by bridge engineers. THE
Engineering News says that with
steel columns satisfactory results
can always be attained, while this is
not true Of the cast-iron substitute.
The Scientific American" in an edi-
torial article demands that the use
or cast-irOn columns be limited TO
Withdrawing buildings, and to those
less than seventy-five feet in height.
II there is authority anywhere in
this country on the safety and use
1uIness Of cast-iron columns, It ought
10 be lodged In these several publi-
cations. and the fact that they are
all OF one mind is ruosr omfnous
when the general use of these make
shifts by speculative builders is con-
sidered. The fact is that the men
who are running up skyscrapers for
money-making purposes in some of
our large cities are doing so with no
idea Of a permanent investment.
Their object is TO build cheap. make
money fast, and sell dear, and they
often have no scruple in building
these structures without the slight
est regard to the safety of the public.
Ihe collapse of the Darlington proved
the impunity with which such oper-
lions can be carried on in New York.
so long as actual disaster does not
occur, and what can be done in New
York can be done elsewhere. 1t is
time for the American people to
understand and look after these
things.
1t is clear that makeshift buildings
hurt the members of the engineering
profession about as badly as they do
any other one class of men, since
they make it difficult for honest and
thorough engineers to make a liv-
ing, and such a calamity as that is
perhaps the worst that can overtake
any body of professional men. The
fact that the American Society of
Civil Engineers is awake to this
danger, and intends to bring it be-
fore the public so far as it's oppor-
tunities permit, is hopeful.
