~ In a drive from Wiltons out east
into the country tributary to the

of Burleigh county is a trip that
would open the eyes of the merch-
ant and the business man to a de-
gree that would, probably, be of adj
vantage to said business man in a
way that he would not soon forget.
1t would have other advantages and
would cause him to cultivate the
acquaintance of the farmer of that
region that would rebound to the
benefit of both parties. s E.% .&s
And it might not be out of place
to suggest to the commercial clubs
of the towns interested that closer
relation with these farmers is very
desirable and to the merchant that
here is a field that he should care.

MRS. SYLVIA sIMPKINs DEAD.

In the death of Mrs. Sylvia Simp-
kins, who was possibly the most
widely known hotel woman in the
South, there is a vacancy that will not
be filled very readily. Mrs. Simpkins
was the proprietor of the Simpkins
Hotel at Guthrie, KY, and had run
this hotel at for the past twenty
five years and was possibly one Of the
most unique persons in the South.
Guthrie is located just on the state
line Of Kentucky and Tennessee. The
l.. & N. at this place goes in four diff
ferent directions. Therefore many tran
silent guests stop over at Guthrie, wait
ing for one train or another. They
always found warm welcome and
comfortable lodging place and hospita.
BILE reception at the Simpkins Hotel
Mrs. Simpkins was member of the
Baptist Church, while her husband,
Mr.. Simpkins, was member of the
Methodist Church, but there was no
UNCONVENTIONAL strife between them.
Their union was one of peace and
harmony, and the ministers of all de-
nominations found a pleasant retreat
and a comfortable home at their hos
telry.
At the funeral there were scores Of
prominent ministers from four differ
ent states. Rev. c. H. Clark, d. D., of
this city, who is we'll known by the
family and who had stopped with
them often during the past fifteen
years, had been summoned over the
long distance phone to be present
He conducted the funeral service.
The question was asked at the serv-
ices, who would be friend to the
travelling ministers, as the deceased
had always been?" She was not only
a friend to the ministers, but to the
so-called hobo" element She was
never known to refuse to give meal
anda often without money and without
price. She fed the unfortunate Mrs
Simpkins leaves a host of friends. AT
| there funeral there were present dis
tinguished citizens of both races, as
she had spent most of her life in and
about Guthrie.

NEW IMPROVEMENTS
More Room for the Baptist Publishing
House.

A permit was issued last week by
the building inspector of this city,
which gave permission to the Baptist
Publishing House to put a second
story on the building next door, which
has been partly occupied by them for
some time. 1t is the building in which
the editorial secretary, Rev. w. S.
Ellington, and the field secretary, Rev.
VIM. Beckham have their offices. This
building will be remodeled, enlarged,
and a second story added. The first
floor will be used as a mailing room,
counting rooms and shipping depart
ment, with the sales department on
the same floor; while the second story
will have the Offices of the field Sec
rotary and the editorial secretary.
There will also be provided a beauti-
full chapel, which will be fixed up as
a church. When this is completed the
Publishing House will move their
chapel and counting rooms from the
third floor in the building across Lo-
Gust street, at the corner of Second
avenue, which they have occupied for
IuS past lOul VI utG years Will Lu6
B. Y. P. U. Board. There are numer-
Gus improvements going on at the
Publishing House and several new
pieces Of machinery were delivered
there this week. Among them was
a new folder, feeder and new press
feeder They also installed another
45-horse power engine. A concrete
floor was laid in the press-room of the
three-story building just completed.
Windows are being cut in the front
building and concrete walk is being
laid for the south side approach.
When all the improvements under way
are completed there will be an ex-
penditure of about $780, $4,000 of
which will be spent in machinery,
the remainder in Improvements in the
building. Dr. Boyd stated to a Globe
reporter that he intended to make
these improvements and then get
down to work for the next ten years.
