ON The STAGE
Leading Lady of the Maid and the
Mummy Left the Show to
Wed Millionaire.

The first inkling of a romance in
which pretty opera singer and a mil
lionaire Michigan mining man are i'm
volved was given publicity in this city
last night when Miss Florence Cham
bers, who has been singing the Maid
in the Maid and the Mummy, saw the
performance from the wings.
The fact that the part was PLAYED
by an understudy gave the chorus girls
an opportunity for gossip and before
the evening performance was over the
members of the company, even to the
most obscure chorus girl, had heard
from the lips of the happy star the
news of her forthcoming marriage to
Frederick Bosom, vice president of
the Calumet & Hecla Mining Co.
Miss Chambers left the company
here this morning for Calumet where
she will visit a couple of weeks with
relatives of her future husband. The
wedding ceremony will occur in about
two weeks at the home of the brides
parents in Chicago.
s 1t was Aug. 81 that the Maid and
the Mummy company played Calumet
and the millionaire mining man caught
his first glimpse of his future wife

Bosom introduced himself to d. c..

suggested Mr.. Bosom. Invite Miss

with the company"
Mr.. Goldman was willing and after
the performance the next evening in
Hancock, Mr.. Bosom was the host of
the merriest little party ever. But
he had eyes for only one of his
guests. 1t was a case of love at first
sight and Mr.. Bosom was not slow
in confiding his feelings to the young
woman.
But Miss Chambers was not willing
to surrender on so short notice. She
refused to say the word which her
millionaire lover declared would make
him the happiest of mortals.
'I'll write" said the millionaire min
ing man when the company left the
copper country.
He kept his promise we'll Letters

-.HE EIGHT o. WAGsTAFF.

A rumor comes from Montgomery
county that Tom Wagstaff, the young
lawyer who made a record for himself
within a few months after he was
sworn in as county attorney by i'm
partially enforcing all laws where it
was said they could not be enforced. is
marked for defeat when he comes up
for. reelection next fall,
Those who. have determined upon
WagstaR's defeat are those whose
enmity he has aroused by enforcing
the law They are the law-breakers
and their friends and sympathizers.
If the law-abiding people Of Mont
gomery county-the decent people
allow the lawless element to accom-
plish Wagstaff's defeat it will be notice
that they wish to be considered as a
law breaking community It will be
regarded by the rest of the state as an
Indication that the thugs and law
breakers run the county.
It is difficult to believe that the de-
cent people of Montgomery county
will stand for any such reputation as
that. Certainly the great majority of
the voters of that great county are in
favor of decency and the supremacy
would support an official of the cour-
age and backbone of Tom Wagstah
regardless of party lines.
Tom Wagstaff accomplished Won
derful results in Montgomery county.
Situated on the border of Indian ter
rftory, containing in its borders four or
five rapidly growing towns, two or
three of them of eonsidera bic impor-
lance. it was no easy matter to enforce
the laws in such a county. Yet Wag-
staff had not been county attorney a
year before he had the county Jail so
full that the court had to wait for the
terms Of some Of the prisoners to ex-
pire before others could be sentenced.
When he was elected to Office Wag-
staff was regarded as q. harmless young
fellow by the law-breaking element
but he surprised them by living up to
his oath Of office, just as Folk did as
district attorney in st. Louis. There is
not another county attorney in Kansas
with the reputation for enforcing the
law that Tom Wagstaff has. If the
decent people of Montgomery county
allow the thugs TO defeat him it viii
be q black eye for the county.

fore not only aids the trust in holding
up the people. but It actually promotes
the wanton destruction Of the forests
which, in a few years. win have a
serious effect upon the climatic condi-
ton of those regions. This is a fact
we'll known to all who have studied the
work Of the bureau Of forestry.
The way the lumber supply Of the

the dire possibilities of the destruction
OF the forest in the short period of 35
years. It was estimated that there now

borhood of 1.475 900, o00. 900 feet of 1um-
Der, but that 49, 900, 900 900 feet of lum-
Der was being cut every year. The re-
port recommended that something must
be done and done Immediately. Recon-
mendations were made by the report
for the prohibition of log exports and
exemption from taxes of tree planta-
tons. Attention was called to the de-
STABILITY of state legal enaetments

tionaI provision by the general govern

of the custom prevailing in France of
requiring a tree to be planted for every

ADVERTISING KANsAs.

One of the cFeditable functions un-
dertaken by the twentieth century
railroad is the development Of the re-
sources OF the regions and communi-
ties through which it runs. A few
years ago this idea would not have
been entertained for a moment by rail-
road managers, but now it is an ac-
eepted part Of the railroad business.
Not only is the settlement and de-
velopment of new regions now under
taken but efforts are made to increase
the productiveness, diversity Of crops.
and desirable conditions generally in
oid-established communities. This is
responsible for the corn-gospel trains.
the dairy trains, the good roads trains.
and other like movements Of the last
two or three years.
OF course the railroad company does
this from a purely business motive.
The greater the produc ttveness Of
region. the greater will be the tonnage
which the railroad will have to haul
out The more prosp the people
the more merchandise they will buy
for the railroad to haul in. It is purely
a business. proposition.
With view of acquainting the peo-
pie Of Kansas with the resources and
possibilities Of their own state, the
santa Fe has inaugurated something
new. in the way Of railroad advertising.
It is publishing in the country papers
ali over its territory a series Of indus
trial articles pertaining to Kansas
These articles are gotten up in plate
form so as to be easily available for.
the country pu blisner. They are pre-
pared with q view to giving informa-
ton that may be Of benefit to the
readers. For instance one article re-
Gently published was devoted to the
subject of good roads. 1t told Of the
tour Of the Santa FEES good roads

drag is accomplishing. and briefly of
good roads movements in a number Of
counties This is certainly good in
formation to disseminate among rural
readers. Another article dealt with
the resources of the Arkansas valley
In southern Kansas, particularly with
reference to the sugar beet industry
During the past few years other
portions of the country have been ad-
vertised by the railroads much more
than Kansas. The Canadian north
west, the northwest of our own coun-
try, and the southwest. particularly
Oklahoma, Texas. and the Pecos val
ley of Mexico, have been widely adj
vertised with the result that they have
been filling up with Immigrants, who
have passed by the great opportunities
offered in Kansas. It is to be hoped
that Kansas will now be pushed as it
deserves and that Kansas people Will
join the railroads in the pushing.

GLOBE SIGHTS.

[From the Atchison GIobe.1
Old bachelors are hard to under

Another instance wherein the Joy of
