FOR ESSAYS ON "FATHER."
Samuel Francis Woolard to lnaugurate
Unique Prize Contest

one of the most interesting efforts
i'm literary work has just been started
by Samuel Francis Woodland of Wich-
ita. Kansas. He is going to get up a
collection of handsome things about
Father" The belated recognition of
the work of a really important man
around the house is being given a
boom by the generous way in which
Mr.. Woodland offers to pay people for
saying the best they can say for
Father He offers prizes as follows:
For the best sentiment. either in
verse limited to forty lines, or prose,
limited to four hundred words, Mr..
Woodland is going to give one hundred
dollars in each case. Second, fifty dol
lars; third. twenty five dollars; fourth.
fifteen dollars; fifth, ten dollars, max
ing in all four hundred dollars, and
two dollars for each of both classes
submitted which he chooses to use
i'm his compilation. All to be original
and never before published, and to
become his sole ownership.
1t is believed that the several hun
drcd dollars thus offered will bring
many rich contributions upon the
subject. Mr.. Woodland says that but
little of actual merit has been written
upon this subject and as it is worthy
of the most affectionate consideration
the new book will surely be a beaut-
full offering. ct will be worthy to go
i'm the class of the other beautiful
books published by him, viz, Good Eel
lowship. The Beauties of Friendship,
All That's Lovely. Pictures of Mem
DRY and Glorious Mother. The con-
test Mr.. Woolard has started will be
confined to English composition and
will close May /, 1900

WE'LL ALL BE THERE.
Census Files Will be Complete Di'
rectory of the United States.

Those who make a pilgrimage to
Washington after this year will have
other sights to see besides the White
House, the capitol, President Taft
and the congressional library-there'll
be the census files.
And the census files to hosts of peo-
pie will be very interesting. Every
body, man. woman or child. in the
United States, viii have his name in
it, his occupation and his history. The
files will be a complete directory of the
United States, to last forever, to be
amended every ten years. If there's
a friend i'm Three Forks, Mont, or
Tenahy. n. j.. or any place that you
haven't heard from since barefoot
days, you may find out all about him
on the trip to Washington-eyen his
street number, and whether he's be-
come bank president or a shoemak-
er, how many children have accrued
and what their names are. In the in
dex Of 100, 100000 cards everybody will
have a card.
What a lever the census files Will
be. John ID. Rockefeller will be mark
ed "oil dealer" His card won't be more
elaborate than the rest. Same with
John Smith, coal HEAVIER; william
Taft president. and James Black, but
cher, all according to alphabet. The
census files will be a convenience to
relatives from abroad who come to
linger a while with Yankee cousins.
Suppose the visitor, on dsembarking,
forgets whether his cousin, Brutus Il.
Jones, lives in Salem, Ohio, or Salem.

EXPRESS CHARGES ON HATS
ACCORDING TO SIZE NOW
Express Companies Refuse Longer to
Garry Hats on a Weight Basis Be-
cause the Size of Woman's Headgear
Has Increased So Mueh-What the
New Schedules Are.

That next bonnet you purchase for
your better half or rather for which
you receive the bill, will probably cost
you more than the last one of similar
size and quality. The express COM
panies have gone on strike. They re-
fuse longer to carry hats on n weight
basis. The charges hereafter will be
i'm proportion to the amount of space
occupied by the box containing the
headgear.
The new rates went into effect
short time ago. The milliners. failing
i'm their protests to the arrangements
Of the express companies, have now
taken the matter up with the interstate
commerce commission, claiming dis
elimination. The companies for their
part take the stand that a rate is based
on weight, space occupied and the val
ne of the article being transported.
When. therefore, as sometimes happens
four hat boxes fill n large truck and an
equal amount of space i'm an express
ear the companies seem to have some
Justification for the claim that a car
load of such boxes. charged for on
weight basis, would not supply suffi-
cient revenue to pay for axel grease
FOR the car in which they are trans
ported. A definite date for hearing \
before the commission has not been
set.
The new schedules as adopted by the
express companies provide for the fol-
owing relation of size to weight with
he charge of transportation from New
FORK to Calumet. The boxes are meas
lred across the top and one end.
