AN OUTING AT THE MILLS.

The young people who went to
Elm Mills for a few days outing,
reported jolly good time. There
were thirteen in the crowd so they
say that is their lucky number, for
all things seemed to combine to
make their holiday enjoyable. The
weather was fine, the moon light
night lovely, the GRUB held out
and the chiggers left the country
just before they arrived. For
amusements there was horseback
riding, bathing, fishing and young
married couple who were at the
Mills on their wedding tour furnish
ed amusement for all.
On Friday they had an elabor-
ate dinner served in the French
style, and when the ladies returned
they were pleasantly surprised by a
delightful supper prepared by the
gentlemen. Menu for Friday din
ner was:
Young chicken, a la Legler.
Flint Corn, a la Cob.
Potato Haun-e -ettes
Gravy, la Cream.
Bread, la Hunk.
Lemonade, la Hibbard.

were: Misses Zella Thomas, Ethel

DANIS-S

Lloyd Davis of Sharon and Cora
E. Stewart of Medicine Lodge were
united in marriage at the Presby-
terian parsonage in this city on
Sunday evening, July 10th by Rev.
w. M. Covert.
The groom is the second son of
ex-County Surveyor E.C.Davis. He
is one of Barber county's first
grade teachers and young man of
excellent character and high integ-
rity.
His bride is the charming daugh-
ter of Hon. Samuel Stewart and
wife, a young lady of enviable re-
fnement and talent.
Probably no couple in Barber
county have estarted on life's VOYAGE
under more favorable prospects.
They have the advantage of coming
from two of the best families in the
county and are themselves admira-
bic and worthy young people.
We hope and trust that their fu-
ture life may always be radiant
with happiness and prosperity in
tull proportion to their great worth.

TO VOTE BONDS.
Petitions to be Circulated in Medicine
Lodge and Elm Mills Townships
for G. b. & G. X. r.

+. V. Russell and O. w. Dawson
of Great Bend, Kansas, attorneys
for the new Great Bend and Gulf
Railway Co., were in the city last
Wednesday talking railroad to our
people. The company is asking
municipal aid between Great Bend
and Medicine Lodge. They left
petitions here for meeting of the
commissioners of this county to
call bond elections in Medicine
Lodge and Elm Mills townships
through which the new road is to
pass. They ask $4,000 from each
township, bonds to bear 5 per cent.
The petitions will be circulated
this week. Petitions are also in
circulation in Pratt, Stafford and
Barton counties and it is proposed
to hold the different elections on
the same day.
Up to this time, if there is any
opposition to the bonds, it is still
dormant. Medicine Lodge has al
ready voted for an east and west
road but that does not bar the
township from voting bonds for
another road. Under the law only
one set of bonds can be issued and
the road that gets here first is the
one that gets the aid. If others
come but get in too late they will
be like the slow horse, they won't
get inside the money.
The elections will probably be
held in August.
There are no new developments
IN the Denver, Enid & Gulf, but if
line is built between this place
and Great Bend the route southeast
will find a ready solution.

MISS HELEN WRIGHT DEAD.

Miss Helen Wright, stenographer
at the Citizens State Bank of this
city, died in St. Frances hospital in
Wichita Saturday, July Is, at &
o'clock P. NJ, as the result of blood
poison caused from an injury in her
crippled foot. About seven years
ago Miss Wright injured the heel
OF her foot and part of the bone
slowly decayed. Two weeks ago
she sustained another injury to the
same foot by slipping in the bank
vault. The effect of this injury
was to press the dormant bone
against the sciatic nerve setting up
complications and developing blood
poison. On Monday of last week,
DIR. Donovan became convinced
that the only chance of saving her
life was through a surgical opera
ton and on Tuesday she was taken
to Wichita. The operation was
performed on Wednesday and at
lrst she seemed to get along nicely
but on Saturday morning it was ev-
ldent that her life was about to
end.
Funeral services were held at her
former home at Elk City on Mon
day, where her parents reside.
The people of Medicine Lodge
feel that the death of Miss Wright
has removed one of the city's most
exemplary ladies-a lady whose
kind disposition and daily life
found cause for commentator
from every person who knew her.
The patrons of the bank, especially,
feel that they have lost friend.
Probably every patron at some
time during her service, has been
assisted. She was a very compe-
tent stenographer and typewriter
operator and was always ready to
do anyone a favor.
Miss Wright died as she lived-a
noble christian lady whose every
moment was devoted to making
the world better and some human
soul happier.

MATRIMONIAL.
THOMAS-RUCKER NUPTIALS.

Thomas and Ina B. Rucker was
solemnized at the home of the
brides parents, eight miles south
east OF Medicine Lodge, on Sunday,
July 9, 1905 at 7 o'clock P. M.
Rev. +. S. Atwell of Sharon, per-
formed the ceremony.
The bride was beautifully attir-
ed IN a wedding gown of white or
gandle trimmed in over lace and
shirs. The groom wore the con-
ventional black. The wedding
march was played by Miss Lulu
Harris. After the ceremony, the
guests 81 in number-repaired to
the dining room where an elegant
wedding dinner, prepared by the
brides mother, awaited them.
Words are not adequate to fitting
ly picture the feast. Instrumental
music was afterwards furnished by
Horace Crawford and wife.
This couple has been in Barber
county only about a year but they
have already cultivated the ac-
quaintance and won the friendship
and esteem of many people in Med
lclne Lodge and Sharon townships.
The bride came here with her par
ents in the spring of 1904. She is
a charming young lady, beautiful
IN both character and features and
endowed with a disposition SYM
bolical of Kansas sunshine and the
sweet aroma of Kansas prairies and
alfalfa fields.
The groom, son of Lafayette
Thomas of Shelby county, Missouri,
also removed to Barber county
year ago and purchased a farm.
His neighbors and friends speak
very highly Of him as citizen and
are proud that he has cast his lot
among them.
For the present Mr.. and Mrs.
Thomas will live with the brides
parents. During the winter and
spring Mr.. Thomas will build a
a modern farm house on his home
stead.
The Index is glad to have the
privileges of ofexteiiding good wishes
to this worthy couple. We trust
that every succeeding day may
bring richer blessings to them and
that no cloud will be so dark on
their horizon that they can not see
the silver lining.

DR.. Geo. W. Aver had a photo
graph taken July Ist which he says
is the last he will have taken. dur
ing the remaining portion of his
life. This photo is 11x14 and one
OF his best, and any of his friends
who wants one can get it by seeing
him and plunking down 50 cents.
Doctor Aver is now nearly 81 years
OF age and has a history behind
him of which few veterans can
boast. DR.. Aver has been through
the civil war and held many posi-
tions of trust, one among them be-
ing deputy sheriff under Grover
Cleveland when he was sheriff at
Buffalo. The Doctor executed
some of the most noted outlaws in
American history. There are many
other startling incidents connected
with his life which would require
volumes to review, but the Doctors
idea is to leave his likeness behind
when he has finally bade farewell
to this mundane sphere and to that
end he has consented to put his last
photo on the market. Remember
this is your last chance to possess
a picture of the greatest of all dar-
ing frontiersmen.

s. S. CONVENTION NOTES.

There are but two Sundays now
before the dates set for the county
Sunday school convention. Let
each school elect two delegates and
send as many more of the school as
possible to the convention.
The program for the county Sun
day school convention is virtually
completed so far as the agreement of
home workers to take part COM
pletes it. We expect to hear at
once from those whom we hope to
have from a distance.
Those who take part in the con-
vention are kindly asked to confne
themselves strictly to the topic as
signed. You will see why when
the program reaches you.
The Sunday school conventions,
both district and county, are in
tended to help teachers and officers
build up their individual schools.
They may be considered as short
Institutes or summer schools for
grown up workers, and are not in
tended to take the place of "Chil-
dren's Day'-a day to which chill
dren are entitled in their individual
school.
A problem What plan can
be suggested whereby the boys and
girls who attend a district conven-
tion may properly regard the day
and be an unobtrusive but helpful
element, allowing Sunday school
workers to give their attention to
a program essentially planned for
them, not for children? Send sug-
gestions to the county secretary.

A PLEASANT AFTERNOON.

Fhe Saturday afternoon matinee
at the Fair Grounds brought out q
larger crowd than anticipated anc
the races and the ball game were
heartily enjoyed. Everything was
orderly, the crowd was well-be.
haved, there was no grating and
the price of admission reduced tc
the minimum, the calculation be-
ing to raise only what was required
to meet expenses.
There were three harness heats,
several running races and a foot
race.
The harness heats were between
Mack Wilkes and Tam O'Shanter,
the promising young bay colt out
OF Irilby. The colt cam OF beat
Wilkes but he can make him get
busy and will develop into fine
horse. This is his first season on
the track.
The running races were partici-
pated in by local horses and were
interesting. Geo. Stewart of Deer
head, won the foot race.
The ball game was between
Medicine Lodge and Amber. The
home team won it in the close
score of 8 to g. The game started
rather tame but ended mighty in
teresting. After the boys got
warmed up they played good ball.
Gullford Davis pitched for Medi-
cine Lodge and L. c. MCGEE for
Amber.
There will be another similar en-
tertalnment in two weeks-Tuly 20.
Horses from a distance are expect
ed on this occasion and good treat
ment will be guaranteed to all who
come.
Among the special features will
be 3-mile relay race, a farmers
quick-hitch race and girls horse
back race. Purses will be raised
and there will be no lack of inter-
est. The price of admission will
remain the same-gentlemen 25c,
ladies free.
