MIKE SUTTON WINS.

One more cIincher to the theory that
there really Is something In name"
Last weeks Lakin investigator says :
@WhA, do you think Of that? You old
timers Who used 20 shut up shop and all
20 down to Dodge City to attend court In
1880, were betting 2 to one on Mike Sut-
ton being the next county attorney, aud
a little ater betting 8 TO 3 on his repre-
sentlng Ford county at Topeka the next
winter, and Later still when his law prae
tice had become somewhat tlresome and
he needed rest, were betting he would
land the JOB Of internal revenue collector
of Kansas. And did be ever fall to make
good. Not on your life and TO think
that on July A, 1907, he was 20 to ]
shot at Cincinnati. Welll they did not
know him over in Ohioj or they never
would have done il, Listen-Mike Snt-
ton, he 20 to one shot made neck and
neck inish. When those people In Chic
think they can give odds against short
grass statesman, or any thing Lnamed
after one, they sincerely don'taknow the
game.
Mike Sutton IS promising young
horse owned By Stubs Brothers OF this
place, and has been racing at Cincin-

the horse won big race at sCiacinnatti,

PARK NEEDS MORE SEATS.

Good Chance for Business firms to add
to the park and have an advertise
ment for themselves.
A Dodge City man suggests that each
business firm In the city put up a per-
manent seat or bench In the park before
the Reunion. Some have been put 10
and they add much to the park.
The ones put up last year are builtaround
trees. They are solid and can not be
moved, and make good seats. More are
needed. The business firms could put
their advertisements on the seats giving
their firm name permanent place In the
park. The park needs more seats badly.
and II also needs good permanent band
stand. 1t isa great park for western
Kansas town to have aud 1t ought to be
fixed up In every way possible. Who
will be the first business man, or any
other kind Of a man to start this move

country which is so far behind the rest OF
the world that it has no casks in which
water could be stored, wagons to dc
the hauling to the nearest seaport, seventy
miles away.
Yet all obstacles have been overcome, the
venture is declared to be a success. and
soon the devout of the United States can
have for the purposes of religious worship
water shipped directly from the River Jor-
dan. from the spot where the great founder
of the Christian religion received His bap-
tism.
Sacredness of the Waters.
The sacredness of the waters of the river
that has flowed for centuries from its
source at Banias to the Dead sea has
passed into a tradition. Thousands of de-
vout Christians from all parts of the world
yearly make the pilgrimage to the Jordan
to receive the blessing that is believed to
come from bathing there. Many of these
take away flied bottles to give to relatives,
friends and officers of the church at home,
so that they, too, may share the blessing.
Now the enterprise of the American will
make this pilgrimage unnecessary. He
brings the river to the very door Of the
faithful in the United States.
The whole project Is almost without a
parallel 1t is startling union of the prac-
teal and devout. The inceptor of the move
ment regards it purely as a commercial
enterprise. yet many will probably look
upon him as a benefactor
The importer first got his idea when he
saw visitors to the Jordan carrying away
the water in bottles and other vessels. He
planned Immediately to ship it to the United
States in bulk, but even the most casual
investigation disclosed innumerable Difficult
ties in the way.
He began by forming a company. Next
he went to the Turkish authorities at Con-
stantinople and outlined his scheme. The
Turks had no objection to the removal OF
the water, but pointed out that the number
of obstacles would make the plan CONNER
cially infeasible. In now!se discouraged
the doughty colonel went to the scene OF
operations to study the local conditions.
