WIDOW AND SONS RANCH
How Susan Hops and Arthur Sue
ceeded in Western Kansas.


Perhaps it would help somebody If
I were to tell the story Of a brave
Kansas woman 1 know. She was a
poor widow, her husband having been
killed during the civil war, leaving
her penniless, with one son to provide
for. All the property she had was a
COW, and to this animal she felt great
y attached. She worked hard and
faithfully, early and late, never losing
courage, always full of hope. The
COW, being kindly treated, was a good
mixer, and by selling milk butter
and calves, the brave widow derived
quite a little revenue from her pet
She sent her son to college, poor as
she was, because she believed in ed
ucatiOn, and worked steadily on, look
inc hopefully toward the future. By
and by she succeeded in securing
small pension, and when her son re-
turned from college they bought some
land in western Kansas, which could
be had very cheap in those days, and
also a few head Of cattle. Her pet
COW, Of course, went with them, IS
she refused to part with her at any
price.
Well, today, this ambitious woman,
Mrs. Susan Hops, and her college
educated son Arthur, are the owners
Of a fine, large ranch and herds Of
stock. Arthur Hops is one OF Thorn
as COunty's best farmers, and he de
clares that his college education help
ed him on wonderfully
Kansas is fortunate in having many
such good sturdy men and women
who have made their way from pow
erty to comfort, if not af1uence,
through industry and enterprise-the
quality which will not admit defeat
but tolls bravely on until the goal is
reached. 1t is such as these who have
helped to build up the state, and
theirs is the credit. Let those who
are now struggling and graphing
with poverty and hard times take this
true story to heart Keep it before
you as an example. The farm is the
very best place to win independence,
if you will use your brains and just
peg away until you get there.-Kir-
win Kansan.-

FOR TORNADO SUFFERERS.
Collection Taken at Methodist Church
Sunday for Marquette.

OultAclg lOE lAdEQuELLe.
A collection amounting to -S7.35 was
taken up at the Methodist church
Sunday morning, which, like hun

from over Kansas, will 40 into a fund

PEerSOn county, which, was c 'plete-

struck that town on the night Of May
last.
Twenty-Five persons we're killed,
scores wounded, forLS-twO houses de-

the Methodist church and parsonage
valued at $4,000 with only fire in
surance. Both buildings were twisted
into a worthless mass Of debris.
In sending out circulars asking for
help, Rev A n Smith, pastor Of the
Marquette church, says:

Cream Separator Companies in Fight
Over Misrepresentation.

Two big damage suits have been
filed in Jersey City, y. j. by the En-
pire Cream Separator company
against the De Laval Separator COM

the Corporation Trust company Of
Jersey City.
In the case against the De Laval
Separator company the sum Of $780,
600 is asked, and in the other $780,
600.
All three concerns are New jersey

inery used in the making Of cream,
butter and cheese. The plaintiff COM

States Butter Extractor company, is
the largest Of the three, having a
capitalization Of S1.2250OO, with the
De Laval Separator company next
with 100000 capital and the Dairy
Supply company with $4,000. The
latter two are controlled by Swedish
dnanCierS- The Empire company
made a specially Of cream extracting
machinery, designed upon what is
known in the trade as the bowl
principle, whereas the defendant com
panies utilized a disc pattern.
1t is set forth in the declaration that

NEW YORY's POPULATION.
New Census May Show Greater POpu-
Iation Than London.

The taking Of the state census Of
New York has begun Experts believe
the results viii show that Greater
New York is rapidly becoming the
largest city in the world and that in
actual figures il is not far behind
London. LOndon's six million inhab-
itants are distributed over an enOr-
nous area which is largely what
might be called suburban. Consider
ing New York as that community
which radiates twenty-five miles from
the city hall the figures, it has oeen
estimated, will reach 5,456,091.

in RawIins County.
J. 3. KOonts Of Topeka, general
freight agent Of the Atchison, Topeka
and Santa Fe railroad, has prepared
a crop report in which he estimates
the total yield Of wheat in Kansas for
the present year to be 82,650,350
bushels The report is complied from
the best and most accurate informa-
ton which the Santa Fe can secure.
It gives the 1905 acreage as 5,791,472.
Mr.. KOOntz obtained his results by US
ing the per centage and acreage in
each Ownship, calling 20 bushels to
the acre 100 per cent
The figures given by Mr.. KoOntz
places the estimate in Rawlins county
at 1,2SO,OOO bushels. If the favor
able prospects continue until harvest
this estimate Will be too low by at
least 100000 bushels.

Merger OF Two FL PasO Roads Con-
frmed-An Outlet to Coast.

The merger just Effected Of the Fl
PasO and Northeastern and afilistLd
roads with those OF the FL PasO and
Southwestern lines is said to be pre-
Iminary to the addition OF All thOSe
roads to the Rock Island system
For the past three years Chs Rock
Island system has reached Fl PaSO
over the line Of the IL PasO and
Northeastern railroad from Santa
Rosa, n n The FL PasO and North
eastern system was owned by c 3.
EDDY c d. Simpson, and other CAPT
talistS having extensive mining and
timber properties in New Mexico
They recently offered to sell all their
interests to the Rock Island system.
1t offered to buy the railroad at a Ger
tain price, but declined to purchase
the mines and timber lands. This
deal fell through.
Later Phelps, Dodge & Co, who
own the FL PasO and Southwestern
railroad and big copper and coal
mines in New Mexico and Arizona,
opened negotiations with the Eddy
Simpson intrests for the FL PaSo and
Northeastern railroad and their mines
These negotiations have Just been
completed and IL appears thatPhelps
Dodge & Co, are to retain all the
mines and industrial enterprises, but
viii transfer the railroads TO the Rock
Island system These roads and
their mileage are:
FL PasO and Northeastern
AlamagOrdO and Sacramento Mt 80
Dawson line -13z
FL PaSO and Southwestern $50
FL PasO and Rock Island ----12S
Total mileage -812
The IU: hler transfer Of the newly
merged lines in New Mexico and Ari-
IONA may not take place for some
time The Jurisdiction Of the officials
OF the 81 Ease and Southwestern road
has been extended over the lines in
the FL PasO and Northeastern Sys-
tenn. but eventually Rock Island Of
ficials will be in charge Of them.
