most exhaustive search proved her to be as
silent as the tomb, deserted pesthouSe.
Everything was in its place-even the boats at
the davits. The hull was unchanged the cargo
untouched. Rigging and spars intact; the
sails were all set. The crews weekly wash
hung above the forecastle; awning covered
the poop. Binnacle and wheel and rUIdder were
complete. The sailors kits and dinners were
seen in the forecastle. In the cabin was a

Greeley was a farmer all his life. He was born

can really take pride-viIes should never be al

room.

STILL ON

The talk of the town, at present
is the action Of the city council III
granting the legal printing to the
paper making the highest bid, after
bids had been solicited by the
council.
BY many the council is seriously
censured and we hear the word
graft frequently used in connection
with the matter. We think the
only trouble in this matter was the
fact that the council in the rush of
business, that comes continually
before it, did not take the
time to look this matter up fully
and that the printing was let with
out due consideration. We DO not
think for minute that any one Of
the business men of this council
would be in favor of paying out five
or six hundred dollars to collect a
debt of $3.50.
Every one can see at a glance
that would be very poor business
policy, and that is just what this
contract amounts to on the basis of
the legal printing the last two years.
Some say there will not be so much
legal printing. There may not be.
and, there may be more, no man
can tell.
We think the council made mis-
take and very serious one, but one
that can be corrected. There is no
traouble about a reconsideration of
the matter. Full and complete
specifications, as far as may be,
should be presented to each paper
of the city and bids asked for and
the lowest bidder awarded the work.
This would settle the matter TO the
satisfaction of all. 1t is not only
the defeated papers that are sore
over this matter it is the taxpayers
generally.
1t does not look right to allow
the matter to stand as 1t does. We
hope to see the council reconsider
Its action in the printing matter and
give all the papers of the city fair
show, since it has been the custom
for many years. and we think they
will do so. 1t will save a good
deal of hard feeling and harsh criti-
cism and according to reports, ex-
pense and trouble to the city.
Fair, honest, open dealing can
injure no individual or corporate n.
Neither can it hurt any man or cor
poration to correct an error. We
expect to see this matter settled IN
satisfactory manner.

GEORGE A. KlMMEL FOUND

George A. Kimmel cashier of the
Farmers National bank of Arkansas
City disappeared from home and
friends seven years ago. Thousands
of dollars and years of time were
spent in frutless search for him.
His friends have long since given
him up as dead.
There was no known reason why
he should leave home. His &C
counts were all straight and he was
prosperous. No satisfactory rea
son has ever been advanced for his
disappearance. He was heavily in.
sured and the insurance companies
have constantly been on the hunt
for him. Now comes the report
that he has been found in an in
sane asylum in New York. Two
Arkansas City men have been taken
to New York for identification pur
poses. They think the man is
Kimmel.
He tells story of being drugged
in Kansas City, secreted there for
some days, then taken TO St.
Louis. He says he was taken to
Detroit near which city the train
was wrecked and he lost conscious
ness. When he came to himself
his abductor was gone. He drifted
to New York and was imprisoned
for forgery. The man talks OF
things that happened in Arkansas
City and asked about people there,
calling them by name. Still he may
not be Kimmel.

Quite a Fire

The fine home OF Mrs. Katherine
Hodges on west main street was found
to be In flames, about one o'clock, last
Wednesday. The fire was located
near the roof and is supposed TO have
started from defective or over heated
flue. Before the fire boys could get to
the scene the fire had enveloped a
good portion Of the roof. BY hard
work 1t was finally got under control,
but Lot till a good share of the roof was
burned off and the upper part Of the
house badly smoked and damaged by
water. Nothing but good fire COM
pany could have saved the house.

BETTER NOT

There seems to be prospect OF
new telephone in Chanute. AT
first thought the idea seems to be a
good one. Competition in any line
Is usually supposed to be proper
and benefit for the of the consumer.
In this matter of the competing
telephone, however. the rule is
surely reversed. In the first place
our streets and alleys are some
what encountered now with numer.
Gus unsighty poles and net work
of wires. Next, we have very
good system already established,
rendering very satisfactory service
in the main. The charges are
much lower than in many places.
Probably they could be lower ye,
and still return living profit. Ar
rangements might be made to that
effect.
We understand the old line is
arranging to give us better and more
extended service in the immediate
future. A new line simply compli-
Ates matters. 1t still further cum
Oers our streets but worst of all it
makes interminable confusion in
the phone service, Some people
will have one system and some an
other.
The merchants and business men
will soon be forced to put in and
maintain both systems. The ex-
pense of maintaining these phones
falls on the city. 1t does not seem
the people of Chanute are quite
ready to take on this additional
burden just to accommodate and
benefit foreign corporation.
Another line will soon saddle on
to the business men of the city a
tax of several hundred dollars pei
month extra that can do them NO
possible good, but be constant
annoyance and expense. We hope
the council will kill the measure in
the interest of the people who will
have the burdens to bear should
another system be admitted.
