Wedding Bells.

On Saturday evening last in the
presence of large number OF the
friends of the contracting parties, at
the residence of the brides mother
on West Cheyenne avenue, Rev. A.
Mcintyre pronounced the words
which united in marriage Mr.. Lloyd
Axton and Miss Bessie McClary, both
of this city. The many presents re-
ceived by the young couple bear tes-
timony to the esteem in which they
are held in the community. After a
brief time spent in rendering con
gratulations the guests were seated
at the table and did ample justice to
the abundance of good things pro-
vided. The Chieftain joins with their
many friends in extending best wish
es for a pleasant voyage on the sea
of matrimonial life.

contraction cxcep: for a very short
time. Yet all near work requires the
contraction of the ciliary muscle, say
for from eight to twelve hours daily.
The result is eye-strain
Persons whose work necessitates
much ocular labor should vary their
duties with intervals of rest. In con-
tinued reading or sewing, it is we'll
to desist at short intervals and fix the
gaze on some distant object and close
the lids repeatedly.

by practical men who are pretty we'll
acquainted with the world, the flesh
and the devil. In not one of them
did we find defense of immortality.
In not one of them was there a trace
of vulgarity, and none taught or JUS
tilted dishonesty Neither could we
find sneer at purity, at religion, at
the better things of life. In many OF
them were excellent bits of advice,
little homely sermons on temperance,
frugality and industry. All of them
loyal to home town. and advocated
honest principles in government and
individual. says Lamar News. Where
ever there was mention of the public
schools it was in terms of praise To
be sure, here and there was some
fun poked at shams, some scorn at
pretense. But the note in everyone
OF these two scores of papers was
Tor decency, progress, enlightenment,
morality. And OF the editors, we
know many of them personally, and
OF all those we know not one is a
drinking man, not one is gambler,
not one ibertine Nose of them
are well read, most of them good
judges of people and events. A pertty
decent lot they are; i'll fact, we doubt
if any other profession can offer
higher-or even as high showing.
Besides all this, the county reditor is
proverbially liberal, frechearted in ev-
cry way No stray printer goes away
hungry, if he has quarter. No pub
lie subscription list ever passed him
without his mite. He gives freely of
time and space to the public welfare
This is not an effort to throw a bou-
quet at our contemporaries; but with
Paul, we believe every man should
magnify his calling, and we are proud
OF ours.

They Are.

If the railroads are not making
money now it must be because they
are trying to earn dividends on wat
cred stock. One does not need very
elastic memory to recall times, not
many years ago, when empty cars
were hauled across the plains and
the roads were so anxious for buss.
ness that they hauled passengers
from Chicago to Denver for dol
lar, says Field and Farm Clerks in
stores got passes on their EN-
ployers' account and few paid fare.
Now practically everybody pays and
the roads cnnot handle all their
freight business. Trains are loaded
both ways. 1t costs more to operate
railways now than it did then, but
there is more than a corresponding
increase in revenues SO that we can
not see how the eastern stockholders
have any kick coming.

Success Here Sure.

Sugar making has proven such
failure in Nebraska that the last beet
mill was closed down this week, new
er to run again. The irrigated fields
of Colorado have been found to be
the only reliable beet growing lands
in the west and it is well to add that
hundreds of beet raisers in that state
are now hiking out for this country.
A procession of fifty covered wagons
left Grand Island this week bring
ing party of farmers to work in
the vicinity OF Holly in Prowers
county. The families of these men,
at least fifty of whom are purchasing
little farms of their own, will follow
later. A number of the men are
leasing lands and will farm for awhile
under the tenantry system. The fail
ure of sugar making in Nebraska is
due primarily to the manner in which
the soil was ruined by the growth of
sugar beets, for with all the prccau-
tions that were taken the fertility
could not be maintained and in this
way the value of the ground was all
shot to pieces. The Norfolk mill
was removed to Prowers county last
season and the Grand Island factory
will probably be transplanted to
Bent county the coming season.

Convict Warns Other Bows,

Dear Editor:-Please print this
i'll your paper, that it may be the
cause o: some young men changing
their ways for there are some in La
mar who are walking in the way that
] have walked.
Boys turn your backs to the fatal
glass, for today you are happy and
gay, but God, only. knows what shall
be your lot tomorrow. One day |
was happy not thinking what was
doing until that fatal glass had done
its work, and, today am prisoner
in dark and dreary prison. Oh, if
the outside world only knew how |
feel today, many young man ! am
sure would stop and consider before
he touched the fatal glass that has
sent me to prison.
This prison life is awful to heart
filed with sorrow and pain and
longing to be free. Day after day |
sit in this dreary cell my mind 60
ing back to the time when | knew
nothing OF such life. hope these
few lines will lead some of the boys
to consider well before they put the
glass to their lips; that the boys who
read these lines will take my advice
and leave liquor alone.

Market Letter.
Special to The Chieftain.

Special to The Chieftain.
Kansas City, March 25-The cattle
supply last week was moderate at
5000 head, market steady on light
beef steers, cows and heifers and
stockers and feeders, but there was
break of s to IS cents on medium and
heavy weight corn fed beef steers.
Ho, weather has affected the demand
for heavy cuts Of beef. and this has
shifted the demand more to the light
er cattle. A great deal of corn yet
remains in the country, and pastures
are almost a month ahead of time
this spring, two features that hold up
the markets on country grades. The
run today is 1900 head, market
steady TO 10 lower, distributed along
the lines laid out in the conditions
las. week. namely heavy beef grades
getting the heaviest loss. others -ang-
ing from that to steady basis. Col
orado fed steers are ,rth $4.2s to
IS, cows s. to 81, heifers $3.50 TO
$3.50, stockers $3.75 to $4.8o. feeders
$4.as to $4.oo, bulls s. IS to s4.25.
some Panhandle fat steers at $3.50,
stock heifers s.. calves $3.50 to ".
The supply OF sheep and lambs last
week was 10000 head, moderate for
this season of bad conditions else
where. The run is 1900 today, mar
|et steady 10 strong. AMI active. Some
Arkansas Valley rs pound lambs sold
It $3.50 today, against a top of s7.8s
last Monday, several lots today at
sos, some 70 pound lambs at $7,4s.
Wethers sell It $3.50 to s., year!ings
SOTO to 1905, ewes $5.a5 to s56s
While the feeling is not quite as
bullish as it was week ago, there
is no expectation of any considerable
declines at present, and any material
reduction in the supply would immed-
iately be reflected in an advance in
rices. as everything is cleaned up
closely from day to day. A small
number of lambs found a free outlet
to the country around 81 last week.

Hot At La Junta.

The thermometer registered ninety

1904 that the thermometer has regis
tered as high as eighty degrees dur

THE TALE OF A FISH.
A Related to His Friends by the
Veracious Jenkins.

They had been discussing fish and
fishing, when Jenkins suddenly added:
did l ever tell you about Pitt Sing,
my pet Japanese fan-tailed goldfish?
Bought her from Jake Hope for $45,
and she is no longer than your finger.
But about her intelligence. OF course,
she comes when called and eats out OF
your hand and all that childish non
sense; but here's a thing she did
which indicates thought, reasoning
brainwork. One day candlestick fell
from the mantel on to the thick glass
bowl in which Pitt Sing was dream
ing. The candlestick cracked the
bowl and knocked a small hole in it,
Pitt Sing, all alone in the drawing
room, saw the water that was essen
tial to her existence flowing through
the hole, and what do you think she
did? She plugged up the leak with
her tail, and in that position l found
her on my return an hour or so later.
She had saved her life, but the end OF
her TAIL from exposure to the air, was
all shriveled and cracked. l had to
massage it with cold cream before the
poor little thing could swim again"
There was painful silence for few
minutes; then when Dumply said it
looked like rain everybody but Jen-
kins followed him out.
