Anarchy Prevails.

st. Petersburg, Jan. l6.-It is adj
mitted in official circles that anarchy
prevails throughout the empire, includ'
ing So Petersburg itself. This state
of affairs is attributed to the fall Of
Port Arthur, and to the fact that de-
feat in Mancburia is anticipated. Rus
sian statesmen, it is admitted, are east

the war to an early end.

Value of KNOWLEDGE.

Boys who get tired of going to
school should read the follow
ing, written by Supt. Adams of
Fayette college: The average edu-
Gated pan gets salary of $1,000 per
year. He works 40 years making a
total of $4,000 in a lifetime. The
average day laborer gets $50 per
day, 800 days in year, or S450in a
year. 40 years he earns $4,000.
The difference, or $4,000 equals the
value of an education. To acquire
this earning capacity requires II years
at school of $50 days each, or 2160
days. Divide $50, 900, the value of
an education, by 2160, number of
days required in getting it, we find
that each day at school is worth a
little more than sic to the pupil.
Can't afford to keep them out, can
we?

A Monoeenarian.

Rev. DR.. c. T. McCaughan cele-
brated his 9lst birthday at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. Max Shaffer, on the
south side Monday, June 18th. Mrs.
Shaffer is the daughter of DR.. Nc
eau CHAN, and he arrived-at her home
last Saturday from Winterset Iowa
where he has resided for many years.
DR.. McCaughan participated in the
services at the Congregational church
last Sunday. And few who did not
know his great age would have taken
him to be more than 20 years of age.
His alert interest in all that occurs,
physical and mental, vigor, his gentle
and courteous Chistian :. manhood
impress one as belonging to a. man
still active in the affairs of life.
a party of friends and neighbors
gathered to celebrate the birthday, al
the hospitable home, of the Skaters,
to where the guest of honor gave the
name of Grand View. s-s:ss
|. A delightful afternoon was spent,
and the guests departed at an early
hour. feeling that it had been a great
privilege to rise up before the hoary
head and honor the face of the old
man.

City Council Proceedings.

The council met at the Commercial
Club rooms, Monday night. as per
adjournment, mayor and all members
present.
The first matter taken up was
general ordinance governing ali SIDE
walks hereafter TO be built in the civ,
which was passed, after considerable
discussion. 1t provides for the kind
of sand, proportion of cementto sand,
thickness of coats etc, for cement
walks; also for bond of $500 for
three years to be given by any pers0,
or persons laying cement walks.
A petition signed by about 80 tax
payers, asking that the $500 bond be
eliminated, but this petition was
tabled.
the ordinance providing for the re-
naming of the streets. passed at pre-
vious meeting, was reconsidered and
amended by the striking out of the
part which changed the name of
Forest Avenue to "Park'' Avenues
leaving Forest avenue as it is.
The matter of numbering the bus
mess houses and residence was again
taken up. The ordinance as finally
passed provides for numbering the
streets north and south, beginning at
the river and mum bering north; and on
the east and west streets beginning at
East street Cat the east line of the
city, with No. 400 and numbering
west. This would make all numbers
from Main street west run above
1000, and all from Main street east
run below 1000.
An ordinance was passed prohibit
ing campers from using the streets or
alleys of the city as camping grounds
or for the purpose of feeding stock.
Councilman Smith moved that the
DAILY HUSTLER be made the official
city paper of Great Bend. This
motion was seconded, than discussed.
Some wanted the mayor to appoint
and the council to confirm. Another
wanted a secret ballot taken. Upon
vote being taken on Councilman
Smiths motion the ayes were:
Smith, Dean and Alfred Miller; noes
Honnen, Allison, Bunting; Clayton
and Durkin. The motion was there
fore lost.
The council passed an ordinance
authorizing the improvement COM
mittee to advertise for bids for the
erection of the city building, and the
council then adjourned.

A Close Call.

Robert Grizzell was down from
near Ciafin over Sunday. Rob had
mighty close call on the 18th, when
Hans Ratzch. of Lincoln, was killed
by lightning. Rob and the young
man who was with Hans, were stand
ing on the wagon tongue, about five
feet from the barn door, where Hans
was standing. The lightning tore up
several rafters Of the barn, killed one
horse outright, and stunned the two
young men on the wagon into un-
consciousness for few minutes. The
bolt that killed Ratzch burned a hole
in his hat, scorched his breast a little
where his watch was, but did not
leave much other marking on the
body. The A. o. U. w. boys at
Clafin shipped the body to Lincoln
Friday.

An American Cams.

The base ball season is once more
on, and the lovers of the game are
packingthe bleacheisand grand stands
and cheering their favorites on to vic
tory. Baseball has a greater hold on
the American people than any
other athletic game. 1t is game of
skill and science, it furnishes exercise
for participant and spectator, it takes
those who play it and those who watch
it out of the daily grind OF business
: and gives them fresh air and fresh
blood and fresh impulse. The grow
ing boy who does not love to play
ball should be looked after carefully
: Grown man who does not like to watch
a coed game betrays the fact that he
. has missed something in his early
training. One reason baseball has SO
long retained it's place in the hearts
of the people is that it has been kept
practically free from the faint Of
gambling. 1t is clean sport and SC
long as it remains such it will retain
it's place at the head of American
games of athletics w. J. Bryan.

A Clean Mayor.

Mayor Weaver, of Philadelphia,
Pa, is a man deserving of the united
applause of every citizen Of the coun-
try who desires honest government
and clean management Of municipal
affairs. He is using the municipal
scrubbing brush and broom in his
politics--ridden city in manner
that is stirring up national politics to
finish, but is cleaning Philadelphia
all right.
Recently prominent men in his
party asked him to let up a little on
party crookedness, to recognize his
party, and not swamp it by exposing
all its rottenness. In reply to- this
he says;
This injection of party politics
at this time is unfortunate. 1t would
be treason to holy cause to involve
it in partisan politics. 1t makes no
difference what persons, what parties
or what organizations fall, as the re-
suit of their participation in the mu-
nicipal wrongs and crimes of the past.
Let them fall. They must fall and
be dethroned before the work in hand
can pc completed impartially and
honestly and the affairs of the people
placed on firm and secure founda-
tons for the future.
And right On this line, we want. in
non partisan spirit, to suggest that
there are other towns throughout the
| land where a Weaver is needed, and
that badly. There is too much crook
ed business IN practically every town
and where one political party has
full sway for series of years there is
bound to be graft and grab, dishon-
esty and political preferment to the
detriment of the city.

Do You Want Great Bend to be Known
in Base Ball Circles.

=
Mr.. Lindsey is interesting himself
in organizing league base ball team
for Great Bend, and arranging for
three games week during the base
ball season. His success depends
upon whether or not the lovers of the
sport in this city who are financially
able to do so will give him the re-
CURED support.
There ought to be ten or twenty
men in this city who will take stock
the total amount of $3.50 or $500
to start the ball.

the Western Kansas League, com
posed of six towns, playing undel

In the association guarantee is given
for every game, and three games a

the people of Great Bend who love
the sport to say whether this city viii
