WARD WINS ONE
 MORE GAMf

". W. Ward won another game in the cribbage tournament in the White Pass Athletic club. He has two more games to play. Should he win one of them 1t would give him the contest, unless Smith should win all his remain ing games.
 The tournament has now been re- dueed down to a contest in which only three men have any chance for victory GAult and Smith still are possibilities, but to make Gault the victor it would be necessary for him to win the only game he has yet to play and for Ward to lose both of his games.

May Be q StyIlsh One, Bat It Makes
 Trouble.
 A man usually buys a hat that's "in style" but the modern hat for men has lots to answer for.
 Baldheads are growing more numer- ous every day. Hats make excellent breeding places for the parasitic germs which sap the life from the roots of the hair.
 When your hair begins to fall out and yorr scalp Is full of Dandrun it Is a sure sign that these countless germs are busily at work
 There Is but one way to overcome the trouble and kill the germs-that way Is to apply Newbro's Herpicide to the scalp--it will kill the germs and healthy hair is sure to result.

Three Girls on a Houseboat.

Down at Sheepshead Bay is moored
a houseboat which is to quarter again
this summer a party of girls who were
its happy inmates last year.
It is not an elaborate houseboat of
the kind that lines the banks of the
Thames, covered with growing plants
and decorated with red awnings and
silk cushions. 1t is more useful, how
ever. for the English households are
rarely intended for living purposes and
are only a daytime refuge.
This plain and quite unadorned
houseboat at Sheepshead Bay has two
sleeping rooms and a small kitchen,
which serves to cook the simple meals
of the three girls who live there every
summer. They work, and it is neces-
sary for them all to have the boat
kept near the city. They do their own
work and find the life economical.
Three friends of theirs who heard
of their successful summer have
arranged to try the same scheme this
year. That will give the original trio
the added delight of society. The two
boats are to lie alongside of each
other.-New York Sun.

KINGDOM OF HOLLAND.
w. Y. Morgan Writes Interestingly of
the Land of Dykes.

The following letter has been received
at the Hutchinson News office from w.
Y. Morgan under an Amsterdam, Hol-
land date line, of July 81. He says:
THE kingdom of Holland is a little
bit of a country, but it has exerted a
great influence in history. In size it is
1850 square miles, not as large as the
Seventh congressional district of Kan
sas, but it has over 100000 inhabitants
and is busy from one end to the other
The greater part lies below the level
of the sea- which borders it on the west
and has been literally reclaimed from
the water by the energy and work of
the people. The Hollanders are the
Dutch, and they have a saying: God
made the sea- but we made the land
The water is held back by immense
dykes and here in Amsterdam [ look
toward the sea and the great lot of
shipping, along the quay is higher than
the tops of many of the houses, that is,
the water is higher than the roofs in
the town. The industry which has thus
driven back and held back the sea has
made little Holland a wealthy nation
and Dutch capital has not only built up
business at home, but it has gone into
the farthermOSt parts of the earth,
even to Missouri and Arkansas, con-
Structed railroads, started factories and
earned dividends or gone into the hands
of receivers in large amounts. The coun-
try is covered with canals about as
Kansas is with section line roads. These
canals are used for commerce, carry
ing freight cheapIy, and for drainage,
irrigation and in place of fences. Every
farm has it's little canal leading to a
main canal like a farmers road in
Kansas goes out to the main Travelled
road. The farmer brings his stuff to
town in canal boat and farm wagon
is almost as rare sight in Holland as
a canal boat is in Kansas. In wet sea-
sons the canals are used as drains and
in dry seasons as irrigating bitches
Canals are built above the level of the
| land, so that irrigation is easy, and for
drainage the water is collected in ditch
es and pumped up into the canals. All
of these facts / had read about, as has
| everyone else, but to actually see such
a country was like a dream come true
There is more sky in Holland than
| anywhere else. The land is fatter
| than Kansas prairie. The scenery
would be absolutely nothing If 1t were
not for the works of man upon the
surface There are no hills in Hol-
land no rushing streams, no ptctur-
1 esque bits of nature. Some of the land

looks higher, and the water from the
big rivers that enter Holland on the
east simply ooze through the SOIL and

ASK sPLINIERs FROM HoCH.
People Think He Saved Some From
Christening Bottle.

Governor Hoch today received sew
eral letters asking for splinters of glass
from the water bottle which was
cracked on the side of the Kansas.
One of the letters came from Philadel-
phia. 1t seems a little queer that any
body should think the governor would
have the splinters lying around to
send to people for souvenirs, but here's
the strange part of the story: The
New York Shipbuilding company has
actually agreed to box up the broken
bottle, and send it. on to Governor
Hoch.
ST suppose the broken glass is some

Hoch today. though so far 1 have not

men seem to be perfectly willing to let the
women do the work and the emancipation
seems to have been accomplished without
trouble of any kind.
THE Dutch language is more like the
English than like the German with which
it is classed. With my little knowledge of
German I can read the Dutch signs and
make a stagger at the newspaper for
there is more English than German in
the written words. But the Dutch as 500
ken language is like neither the German
nor English. When two Dutchmen have
social quiet chat it sounds like buzz
saw. I can usually make Dutchman IN
derstand me but when it comes to my
grasping the meaning of his talk I had
as soon try to interpret the remarks of a
file. It is ridiculous the way you have to
change language every few hours ride in
Europe. But quit trying when 1 came to
Dutch. They will have to talk English or
make signs in order to get my money,
and again l am brought to the conclusion
that no matter what is the language of tire
country, money talks
