An Excellent Service.

Sunday was a great day at the Meth
odist church IN this city. For some tim,
it had been announced that Presiden,
Mossman and the Male Quartet o
Southwestern College would be her.
for the day and the people of the com.
munlty showed their appreciation for the
work these men represent by filling the
house both morning and evening with
folks who gave their undivided attention
to what the President had to say, as well
as to the singing Of the quartet. The
Cello solos played by Hobart Barber,
with organ accompaniment by Professor
Barber, his father, were by no means the
least OF the program. The vocal solos
were all excellent. and although the
quartet is . new one in its present COM
bination. all will concede that they sang
with power and beauty Of expression.
The Presidents sermon in the morn
ing was good but his address in the ev-
ening was surely fine. His appeal to
young men to have purpose in life, to
be honest with self. man and God; to be
pure in lite and courageous in conduct,
was a masterpiece and was Of great
value to the town.
The expenses Of the men were met
by the free-will offerings, besides the
subscriptions to the College for the day
will exceed 500.
Next week the contract will be let fol
the building Of a $4,000 administra-
ton hall on the college campus. Our
best wishes are for the continued success.
Of the Southwestern College.

Confidence Betrayed

The kiowa News-Review, the only
paper in Barber county that supported
Samuel Griffin for the nomination for
representative prior to the republican
primary, has taken big fall-out and has
dropped MI. Griffin like a hot potato
The News-Review has a column and a
half in last weeks number reading the
not &C" to Mr.. GriGn.It brands the Hon.
Samuel as traitor and an migrate and ap.
plies other kindred names to him. 1t as
serts that Mr.. Griffin ha. turned hi. bacI
on his fnends and made terms with hi,
enemies. The charge is made that on
his recent visit to kiowa last week h,
did not call on the NewsReMew anc
other fnends who assisted him in the pm
mary election. but on the contrary lavish
ed all his affections on the machine crowd
The News-Review IS indeed wrathy
but Mr.. Griffin Is Of the opinion that the
incident will have the eGed Of ''linin,
up his former enemies within the party
We shall know more a week hence.

Twenty Prairie PheaSants.

County Clerk Ireland received 20
prairie pheasants from State Game Ward
en- Travis last Wednesday, and the
birds are being kept in Judge S. P.
Garison's poultry park. Later it is In
tended to give the birds to one or more
reliable farmers who have suitable place
for rearing young birds. They were
shipped here from Illinois. The follow
ing letter from Mr.. Travi. explains the
method Of handling the pheasants and
is little different than the county clerk
anticipated two week ago when the
proposed shipment Of the birds was FIRST
noted:
Pratt, Kans.
Mr.. s. W. Ireland,
Medicine Lodge,
Dear Sir
From your letter Of the 14th,
take it that you do not understand how
I wanted the pheasants placed. What
I want is to have the ten pair placed
in one lot and kept in one lot until
about the Goth of March, and at that
time all liberated in one bunch. think
it is a mistake to scatter them out over
the country-a pair in place. 1t is
very likely that this will be all the birds
1 will be able to get this year.
Yours truly.
D. W. TRAVIS.
