They walked back home.

That is very nearly, not quite, what
c. M. Holmquist and Chas. Lee had to
do Wednesday night, when Felton's
auto broke down west of Will Truan's
farm. Mr.. Holmquist was showing
Mr.. Lee some fine Ellis county farm
land The auto broke down several
times but each time Mr.. FELTON, was
able to repair it, until just as they
were opposite Will Truan's farm the
machine event dead'' and in spite of
the efforts of Mr.. FELTON, nothing could
be done to make the chug car go. Mr..
Truan, being an up-to-date farmer, had
a telephone and Mr. FELTON, lost no
time in phoning to his livery stable for
a carriage. Messrs. Lee and Holm
quist started to walk towards town
and after pleasant stroll of a few
miles the carriage arrived and brought
them on in to town about 2 a. m. Mr.
FELTON, remained with the auto and had
it brought in to town the following day.

RoNcLAD PAPER MERCER.
Manufacturer Says Combine VIII
Boost. Prices to Six Cents

Appleton, Wis. Aug. 22.-The Inter
national Paper Co. is behind the print
paper merger which is now being
brought to a successful close. This
much was given out by manufact-
urer, who stands high III the paper
trade and who has mills which will
enter the merger. Every print paper,
manila fiber and sulphite plant in Wis
consin, Minnesota and Michigan, he
says, will be taken into the gigantic
company. Options are, now held on
practically all of the mills. He added
that within twelve months the Inter
national Paper Co., which was incor-
porated unber the laws of the state Of
New York in February, 1898, with an
authorized capital of $118, 900, 900, will
control the print paper market of the
United States. The manufacturer says
the price of paper will advance to A
cents to the jobber and cents to the
small buyer within the near future. -Ex.
Wow! This means another black eye
for the poor printer.

The MenIO Record Quits

The Menlo Record has suspended
publication and the material will be
moved elswhere. The Record is but
another instance of trying to run
paper in too small a town. Menlo
merchants gave the paper all the pat
ronage that could be expected of them
but there was not enough of them to
hold it up. The fellow who gets the
idea that newspaper can exist with
out making good deal of money does
not know the real conditions. Each
one of the Colby newspapers have to
make $125 each month before the
owners can have cent, and some
months it requires nearly the whole
month to make it. Colby Free Press.
Yes John, and sometimes it takes
more than the month to make expen-
ses. Print paper is so per cent higher
than it was year ago and we'n dare
you to raise the subscription price to
81. so per year. Editors die poor cause
their easy. When dry goods, or gaso-
line, or coffee goes up the price is ad-
vanced and we pay it. The raise
wouldn't mean much to the individual
but would mean whole lot to the ed
itor. Oakley Graphic.

The Man Who Knows II An.

Every town has man who Knows
1t All. If you are at ball game he
knows exactly when the umpire is
wrong and can tell you every time a
player makes mistake. If he is at a
horse race he will inform you where
a certain driver lost the race. At the
whist party he will tell you how you
could have won another trick by play
ing differently. In short, he knows it
all and knows it all the time. 1t does
not pay to argue with him. You can't
knock any conceit out of him, and you
will only lose your temper. Don't ar
que with man who Knows It All.
The only possible thing you can do is
to try to tell bigger lie than he does,
and then you want to tell it last. .-Os-
borne Farmer.

he Public Park.

Those of our citizens who insisted on
the establishment OF the Public Park
on the Reservation, as required by the
act of Congress, begin to be pleased at
showing already made in the land Sc
lected along Big Creek on the south
side of town. A double driveway has
been laid out from the South Chestnut
street entrance to the Mosier avenue
entrance and the row of trees through
the center and along both sides are
now fifteen feet high and are very fine,
having been given careful cultivation.
Our citizens will find it much more
beautiful drive than any about town.
Entrance gates are open at either the
west or the east end. Drivers will re-
member to keep to the right, as the
road is double one.
The experiment station proposes to
take good care of their park and have
posted notices that all stray stock will
be taken up. In few years the park
will be beautiful place and credit
to our city and the experiment station.

No TwO-cent Fare Yet.

And still we poor Kansans do not
ride for &c. mileI The railroad offic-
ials are yet celebrating what to do in
regard to the demand of the Governor
and state board of Railroad Commits
sioners for a 2-cent rate, and up to
Friday nothing definite has been de-
cided. Current rumors in the cities
have it that the railroads are going to
refuse to obey the order and no doubt
if this is done the Governor will call
special session of the legislature and
do the thing up brown. In a conven-
tion Thursday Gov. Hoch said, '"This
much you may consider as certain
either Kansas will get that fiat 2-cent
a mile passenger rate, or this rate will
be withdrawn in neighboring states
Attorney General Jackson says that
the Railroads are very sore on Gov.
Hoch and they will go over to the
Democratic party at the next election
if they are forced to enact the 2-cent
mile rate. Nevertheless Gov. Hoch
is not the kind to get chicken-hearted
and he will see the thing through or
know why-and he has the people of
Kansas behind him in his reform meas
ures.

The Cost of a Newspaper.

The Eldorado Republican says it
costs twice as much money to print
an issue of that paper as it did eight
or ten years ago.
This is no doubt true, and it is true
of nearly every paper in the land.
The cost of material has almost dou-
bled in that time. The cost of paper
has increased about 80 per cent in the
last year alone. The price of labor is
way above what it was few years
ago.
A great many country papers have
increased their price in order to meet
this increase in cost of production,
and they are justified in doing it. If
the increase in cost continues, it is but
a question of time until all weekly pa
per publishers will have to raise their
price to 81 in order to pay expenses of
publishing a first-class country news
paper. Lacrosse Chieftian.

M. ]. MuMFoRD, Pastor.

The Rev. A. g. Van Haaften, the
Hindu who speaks at the Methodist
church the coming Sunday morning
and evening, has been speaking at the
larger towns and cities down the road
and word comes from the towns where
he hiss spoken that he has been one of
the most intensely facinating speakers
ever having spoken in those towns.
He has been one of the strong num-
bers on some of the largest Chautau-
qua programmes in the United States,
has preached in many of the largest
churches in the East and the West,
and everywhere the people want to
hear him again.
The regular attendants at the church
will miss familiar face for some
weeks. Mr.. w. S. Harrison, who is
so faithful both in attendance upon the
services and in the work for the church,
will be gone for several weeks to Illi-
nois to get little needed rest and re-
freshment and visit the scenes of his
early manhood where he trained the
choirs for the dedication services of
the Methodist, Baptist and Presbyter-
ian churches, in Kankakee.
A Methodist Episcopal Church was
organized at Yocemento last Sunday.
Not large membership as yet, but
enough to elect a board of Trustees.
The election will take place Thursday
evening, Sept. 10Th.
The Junior League is doing good
work. The Juniors deserve much
credit for their faithfulness to the
study work assigned them. The larg-
er ones have finished the Junior Cat
echism and now take up the larger
one. Some of the grown people, who
heard the recitation of the Juniors up
on the fundamental doctrines of Christ
ianity expressed a deep regret that
they even now were unable to give
as good statement of Christian doc
trine as many of the Juniors.
! Come promptly on time if you wish
to hear Mr.. Van Haaften the coming
Sunday morning and evening. The
church is likely to be filled up early.

Game Worden Here.

Deputy Game Warden D. D Finney,
of Manhattan, was here for few days,
looking after the enforcement of the
game law. He arrested young man
Sunday for shooting on that day, which
is a direct violation of the state law,
and found quail in his buggy. The
case was heard before Judge Posegate
and he was fined $500 and costs, max
ing a total of $25.5O. Mr.. Finney
wishes the attention of all called to
the law against Sunday shooting, as
well as the strict observance of the
game laws. Plainville Gazette.

Why Home Patronage?

There appears in another column of
this paper a small card for the Hays
Laundry. We were very much dis
appointed this week to learn that
there still are two agencies here for
out-of-town laundries. We do not
know just how much patronage these
agencies have, but we hope it isn't
much,- for certainly no public spirit
ed citizen will continue to pay good
hard money into the Golfers of Salina
or Abilene establishments when there
is local laundry doing the same work.
It is taking out of this city money
which rightfully should be spent here
and money which departs never to re-
turn. You wouldn't think of buying
your clothes or even your tobacco from
Salina or Abilene; why patronize their
laundries? Our local laundry does as
good work as the best laundry In Sa-
lina-we know, because we've tried
'em, and your work is called for and
delivered at your door. Not every
town in western Kansas is so fortu-
nate as to have good laundry and
Hays citizens should show their appre-
citation by throwing in their little mite
to help push good thing along.
We desire to say that this article is
unsolicited and unpaid for and is writ
ten by the editor IN the spirit which
ever governs this paper, Home trade
for home benefit"

Presbyterian church.
". IL. BROWN. Pasto

There was quite an increased attend
anee at Sunday School and Church and
also the Christian Endeavor Society
last Sunday. A large audience was in
attendance in the evening for the last
of the union services and they heard
good logical sermon by Bro. West of
the Lutheran Church
A broad smile of satisfaction passed
around over the faces of the Presby-
terian folk when it was learned that
two Of the new members of the faculty
of the Western Branch were good live
Presbyterians.
Brother Cole, who has sung so long
and SO well in the choir, had to retire,
or thought he had, on account of his
failing voice, and he has been looking
anXiously for some one to fill his place.
It was very gratifying to him and all
to see and hear Prof. Treadway in his
corner last Sunday.
Some one remarked that it was not
only good singing choir but rather
unusually interesting group of faces
over in that corner. May God bless
them in that important and helpful
part of His service, and may their
singing cheer and bless and comfort
those who gather from week to week
for His praise and worship
AS soon as one can be found who is
competent and willing to take hold of
the work, junior Endeavor Society
will be organized. Perhaps no line of
church work gives promise of larger
and more permanent results than this
if ones heart is wholly in it.
If you do not attend church else
where, come out and worship with us
next Sunday morning and evening and
we viii try to do you good. At all
events go to church somewhere and do
not longer be heather in a christian
land. Morning subject: God Hand; /;
evening: Goods Choir.
