A Public Nuisance.

About the worst nuisance ever
known in Butler, is the dumping
grounds, almost in the exact center of
the southwest section of the city be-
tween Fl. Scott and Dakota streets,
on Water street. Rock has been
quarried out of this vacant lot leav-
ing big hole, which has been made
a public dumping ground of trash
and offal of all kinds, decayed mat
ter, refuse from which an awful
stencil arises FFe-fffake matters
worse some boys thoughtlessly set
fire to this dump and it burned for
several days giving out sickening,
sitting odor almost uncomfortable to
the citizens of that section. Sickness,
pestilence and death turks in this hell
hole of purifying mess. No other
city the size of this would submit to
dumping ground in the center of a
residence district. The Times calls
attention of the city authorities to this
nuisance and menace to health, and
in the name of the residents of that
section of the city ask its abatement.

threshing an addition to their church

Many of the ladies, aided by men
and boys, whom they have impressed

the field endeavoring in every way to
make the most of the opportunity.
When the clover is threshed the
one-sixth which goes to the ladies
will be sold to the highest bidder and
the funds realized will be placed in

Tribute to Goods Greatest Gift. 3"

In the course of an address to the
old settlers of Golden City last week
Hon. E. L. Moore, representative
from Barton county in the state legis-
lature, became eloquent and deliver
ed the following beautiful tribute to
Goods greatest gift to man," pure,
cold water. We produce it because
we consider it a gem worth preserv-
ing.
"The hot cornfield has driven many
man to drink, but its the drink that
comes from the distilleries of Para
disc; the drink that has never yet
caused murder, or ruined happy
homes, or created paupers, pr0Sti-
tutes or saloonatics. A man never
beats his wife or sees snakes and
devils from drinking it, but is remind
ed rather of the old songs and scenes
of childhood on the old homesteads.
Pure water contains the crystal light
of dawn, the tender-touch of twilight
and the silver scintillation of the
stars.
1T mingles only elements that
make for strength and gives a keener
and more lasting satisfaction than all
the famous but deceptive tonics of
Italian vintage or Kentucky distilla-
ton. 1t has no power to intoxicate
or make men mad, but is more ex-
hilarating than the perfumed airs of
Arabia and Persia. 1t has a love and
language all of its own, and murmurs
sweeter music than the harp, whether
reclaimining the desert of a drunk
ards throat or kissing and caressing
moss rocks. II has the color of the
rainbow and the purity Of baby's
smile and is composed of diamonds
dissolved by starbeams in the cruel
Gle Of natures laboratory, slowly
forming drop by drop, through all
the uncalendared ages of the past. 1t
falls on field and forest as a benedic-
ton from the clouds and is offered
us, without money and without price,
by the mountains and valleys, in
sparkling springs and ripping rills.
1t is emblematic Of the never ending
hospitality Of heaven, and all the eff
forts Of q puny man to substitute a
better beverage are impious and
absurd. Nevada Herald.

ing Mr.. Reeves arose at the usual
hour and went to the barn to do his
chores. On returning to the house
and not finding his wife up, he pro-
ceeeded to the bedroom and there
found her dead in ded. Her death is
attributed to neuralgia of the heart.

pay $25 head for four. convictions,

kept standing until November 1, and

vided by law for dynamiting fish is a
fine Of $500, yet it seems there are
many persons who will take the risk.

PEARY WINS
GOAL ALSO.
"tStars and Stripes" Nailed to
the North Pole. His Terse
Message to the World.
Found No Trace of Cook Expedition,
Says Cablegram From Captain
of Ship.

of Ship.
New York, Sept. 6.-'Peary has
succeeded.
Stars and Stripes nailed to the
north pole"
From out the Arctic darkness there
was flashed to-day this message,
which stunned the scientific world
and thrilled the heart of every lay
man.
From the bleak coast of Labrador
Peary gave to the world the news
that he had attained his goal in the far
North, while at the same moment in
far-off Denmark Doctor Frederick A.
Cook, of Brooklyn, was being dined
and lionized by royalty for the same
achievement.
Commander Peary found no trace
of Doctor Frederick A. Cook, who
reported to the world five days ago
that he made the same discovery in
April of the preceding year. This
news reached here tonight through
a cablegram from Captain Robert
Bartlett, of the Roosevelt, Peary's
ship, en- route to Chateau Bay,
Labrador.
Undeniably, American grit has con-
quered the frozen North and there
has been created a coincidence such
as the world will never see again.
Two Americans have planted the
flag of their country in the land OF
ice, which man has sought to pene-
trate for four centuries, and each, ig-
norant of the others conquest, has
flashed, within a period of five days,
a laconic message of success to the
waiting world.
Cook, in his first message TO his
countrymen, was brief but uncom-
initial; Peary was even briefer, but
specific. STARS and Stripes nailed
to the north POLE" he said. Thai
was all; but never before have so few
words conveyed to a people greater
meaning or greater patriotic salts
faction.
Five days ago, on September |,
Doctor Cook sent out from the Shet
land Island, the first message of his
success-a message which has arous
ed storm of controversy around tn,
world, To-day Robert E. Peary, los
from view in the land of ice and I'm
heard from since August, 1908, startl
ed the world by a similar message
sent from Indian Harbor, Labrador
There was no qualification; it left ne
doubt. 1t announced unequivocally
that he had reached the top of the
world.

HEAD OF ASYLUM AT
NEVADA, MO-, RESIGNS
Doctor G. c. Wilson Practically
Ousted by Opposition in His
Own Party Ranks.

Nevada, Mo-, Sept. 5.-Doctor G.
C. Wilson, superintendent of the
State Hospital for the Insane here,
has resigned and the Asylum Board
has been called to meet in special ses-
sion September 10 to elect a new SUI
perintendent.
Doctor Wilson was elected superin-
tendent after one of the bitterest Re-
publican factional fights ever waged
in this county. Since his election con-
slant friction has been in evidence
between the superintendent and
Steward Hackney, Treasurer Hallett
and other officers of the institution.
Governor Hadley met with the Asy-
lum Board the latter part Of July and
it was reported that the Governor
issued an order that harmony must
be injected and maintained, but the
order failed to be effective and re-
ports Of friction continued.
The board met again Friday and
spent the day in executive session,
and after adjournment it was learned
that the board made an order that
stripped the superintendent Of much
Of his authority relative to the en-
ploying and discharging Of men I'M
der the other officers.
The original trouble sprang up be-
cause of there being two factions in
