SEWER FOR SOLDIERS HOME.
Captain S. II. Thomas. Commandant
,- at Dodge, Is in the City.


Captain S. H. Thomas, commandant of
the soldiers home at Dodge City, and
Mike Sutton one of the members of the
board, are in Topeka today to confer with
the state architect about the construction
of the sewer system for the home for
which the last legislature made an appro-
priation of $1,000.
In accordance with the new law the
matter was laid before the state board of
health, and permission asked to empty
the sewer into the Arkansas river. AS
there is no town in the vicinity using the
Arkansas as a source of water supply, the
REQUEST will probably be granted.

MONEY COMES SLOW.
Washburn Fund Is Still $4,000 short
of the Mark.

The work of the committee which
is now engaged in soliciting $4,000
for the Washburn college endow-
| nent fund is not meeting with as
much encouragement this week as
was~anticipated-s During the past day
but 1865 has been secured, which still
leaves over s$12, 600 to be raised for
the WaShburn fund. There are but
four days in which to work and unless
much more progress is shown by the
donors of Topeka the pledged gifts
from eastern sources will have to be
passed up by default on the part of
Topeka. So far this week no large
subscriptions have been received al
though efforts have been made along
that~line.
However, the committee is still
working and with the increased num-
bers of members there ought to be
some results before Saturday when
the, campaign will be closed. The
ladies are still working and already
their efforts have borne fruit as sew
eral contributions from the women of
the city have been reported.
Friday the funds will be increased
to large extent by the kindness of
the Topeka merchants who have
agreed to turn over ten per cent of
their gross receipts on that day to the
committee. The committee realises
that the proposition of getting $4,000
in four days is not like stepping into a
golden bonanza and are working hard.
1t is still pro able that the end will be
reached as the committee members
have each provided themselves with
large lists of possible givers and are
working hard to land contributions.
The names of the merchants who
will give their profits of Friday to the
Washburn fund not already reported
are as follows:
George w. Stans1eld, First National
Barber shop, A. B. Whiting, Elliott
Bros .(Fitwell Shoe Coz, ]. D. Sulli-
van, McSpadden Grocery Co., Joslin

Curing g. Balky Horse.

A great deal has been written on the
subject of the balky horse and mule.
Very bad cases of the disease have
often been cured. John Dimon, a re-
alM experienced horseman, in his
vefE practical book on american
Horses and Horse Breeding," says:
"When quite young man l was con-
ceited enough to believe myself able
to swap horses and hold my own with
the average horse jockeys of those
DAYS. A result was that I occasion
ally got more in horse than I bar
gained for and anticipated getting,
an occasional baker included.
''I distinctly recollect that on one
occasion I purchased a large bay
mare, sound and apparently all right,
but she considered it far beneath her
to handle any load more than buggy
or occasionally a family carriage.
When hitched her to load of fence
rails she utterly refused to take any
part in their transportation.
"At that time OF life I was young
and hasty in disposition. I was farm
ing and annoyed. My plans were be-
ing delayed. I tried the use of the
whip, but it did more harm than good.
I changed the plan, going to the
woods and tying her to tree, leav-
ing her alone for the afternoon. To-
ward night I made visit and hitched
Der to wagon. She refused to move.
Once more tied her to the tree.
"She was thus left to reflect until
the morning. Then she was evident
ly getting lonesome as well as hungry
and thirsty. Again she was tired and
left in her glory because she yet posi-
lively refused to work as wanted.
She was regularly visited. At last
the time came for her to be glad to
see the visitor. She whinned with
joy at his approach.
''I again hitched her to the wagon,
and you may be sure she was glad
and anxious to move that wagon.
The result of the whole matter was
that owned the mare upward of two
years, and scarcely ever had better
pulling one along or in a team, and
when I finally sold her 1 warranted
her to pull in any or all harness"
The evidence is that there is no use
for mere force.-Home and Farm.

Little Thinrs.

A Goodbye kiss is a little thing,
With your hands on the door to 60,
But it takes the venom out of the
sting
OF thoughtless word or cruel fling,
That you made an hour ago.
A kiss of greeting is sweet and rare
After the toll of the day,
And it smoothes the burrows plowed
by care
The lines on your forehead you once
called fair,
In the years that have blown away.
'Tis little thing to say, "You are
kind,
"I love you, dear" each night;
But it sends thrill through your
heart, find,
For love is tender, love is blind,
AS we climb life's rugged height.
We starve each other for loves caress,
We take, but we do not give;
It seems so easy some soul to bless,
But we dole the love ,grudgingly less
and less,
Till tits bitter and hard to live.

Not Built to Speculate.

Thomas w. Lawson was talking about
success TO a financial reporter in Boston.
Success In the stock market" said Mr..
Lawson, comes from reckless daring. He
who enters this arena must throw aside the
old cepybook maxims about prudence, and
looking before leaping. and studying both
sides exhaustively, and 50 on. Swift and
reckless is the successful speculator. and
the unsuccessful one has nearly always too
much of the prudence of the old flute
player.
There was you know. old man, a
Milk street clerk, who played the flute. 1he
old man entered a music shop one day.
opened a large book OF music and laid 1t
on a shelf before him in an out-of-the-way
corner.
Then he took his flute out of his coat-tail
pocket screwed it together. and began to
play softly the first tune in the book.
when he finished the first tune, he turn
ed the page and played the second. Then
he played the third.
"At the end of half an hour he was still
