Gone to Her Reward

Mabel E. Cummins, daughter of
James H. Cummins and wife who
reside three miles east of this city,
died on Saturday, December 18th,
after suffering several months with
lung trouble. This family came to
Barber county from Perry, Kansas,
about year ago. They have the
confidence and esteem of their
neighbors who sympathize deeply
with them in their afliction.
The following notice of the
death is contributed by friend:
Mabel Elizabeth Cummins was
born in Perry, Kansas, Aug. 1886;
died at Medicine Lodge, Kansas,
December IS, 1909, aged % years,
months and "a days.
At the age of fifteen years she
was converted and united with the
Methodist Episcopal Church OF
Sarcoxie, Missouri. Last Septem-
Der she placed her membership
with that of the family in the
Methodist Church in this city. She
was an earnest and faithful christ
ian girl, and was especially inter.
ested in Sunday school work as a
teacher of the primary class. She
worked in the church faithfully so
long as her health would permit
Since coming here from Missouri
her health has been such as to pre-
vent her from attending church
services, She was anxious to live
but willing and ready to die, and
passed into the better life beyond
in the full assurance of faith.
Funeral service at the residence
Sunday at 3 o'clock p. m. A large
gathering of neighbors and people
from the city attended the funeral
A quartette from the Methodist
church sang 'Asleep in Jesus" 81

A Family Reunion

DR.. and Mrs. D. E. Tedrow en-.
joyed a family reunion at their
home in this city on Christmas
day. A splendid Christmas dinner
was the feature of the gathering,
but even this was surpassed by the
enjoyment of having all the chill
dren and most of the grandchildren
and great grandchildren present.
DR.. Tedrow and wife are the par.
ents of nine children. They have
nineteen grandchildren and two
great grandchildren. All of the
living children and their wives and
husbands attended the reunion
and nearly all of the grandchildren.
The only thing to mar the pleas
ure of the day was an attack of
rheumatism which seized Dr.. Ted.
row, which for time was intense,
but Col. Taliaferro, hearing of it,
brought in remedy and it brought
almost instant relief.
This was the first reunion DR..
and Mrs. Tedrow enjoyed for years
and it was d great satisfaction to
them to know that all of the chill
dren could be present.

CLOUD.WELLS

The Cherokee Daily Messenger
of December 18th contains the fol-
lowing marriage announcement:
cat eight o'clock last evening
Miss Dada Wells and Riley R.
Cloud were quietly married at the

Rev. w. Mark Sexon performed the

"The bride and groom left this

be at home to their many friends
at their residence on Oklahoma

The groom is the elder son of
DR.. A. S. Cloud of this city. He
is a rising young lawyer at Chero-
kee and since he located in that
city has taken an active part in

sides doing an extensive and lucra-
tive law business in connection

Duncan-Ash

The marriage of Mr.. Edward E
Duncan and Miss Anna Ash was
solemnized at the home of the
brides parents three miles south of
this city, on Tuesday afternoon,
December Fl, 1909. Elder Bishop
NJ. Hopkins, pastor of The First
Christian Church of this city, unit
ed these two young people in the
bonds of matrimony.
The ceremony was witnessed
only by the close relatives and a
few intimate friends of the bride
and groom.
Following the marriage an ex-
cellent wedding dinner was served,
after which the couple departed on
the afternoon train for a short we'd
ding trip to Ulysses and Wichita,
Kansas. They will return home
the latter part of this week and for
the present will reside on the
groom's parents farm.
The groom is the second son of
A. l.. Duncan and wife who have
lived in this township many years.
He has grown from childhood to
manhood here and has built char
acter that is an asset far above
price value. His industry, his mo-
rality and his countless manly ac-
quirements form a bulwark of
strength which is destined to
achieve success in life's battles re-
gardless Of obstacles that may,
perchance, temporarily obstruct his
pathway.
The bride is daughter of Amos
Ash and wife who are also early
settlers among US and one of the
leading families of the community.
She is young lady of refinement
and culture, pleasant in disposition,
charming and beautiful in all that
the terms imply. She, too, has
been brought up in this communi-
ty and enjoys lasting friendships
among all the people who know
her.
The Index is pleased for the
privilege of congratulating this
most deservant couple, and in
wishing them a life respIendent
with great happiness, it is giving
expression to sincere sentiment
that permeates the entire com.
munity.

abreast of the times in getting fa-
miliar with the latest and most
popular song hits, should not over
look the first visit to this city of
Prince of Sweden" which is due
at the opera house, Monday, Janu-

minor feature of the performance,
which reveals one of the most en-
tertaining and humorous comedies
seen in many day. There is not a
lull IN the merriment from the rise
OF the curtain until the time for
home going. 1t is a scream from
start to finish and the best Scandl-

Choral Union Tenders Thanks

The Choral Union desires to pub
licly express its appreciation and
hearty thanks to everybody who
assisted and in any manner con-
tributed to the success of the Queen
Esther Cantata which was staged
at the opera house December 18th.
The members of the Union are not
only grateful to all who assisted in
the entertainment and in prepara
tion for it, but they also appreciate
the very large attendance and the
respectful attention given through
out the play by the audience.
They especially desire to thank
the High School students and the
small school children who assisted
so ably in the work: Without
their assistance, the Cantata would
have been less interesting and
therefore would not have met with
such high degree of public praise.

Bank Guaranty Law AnnuIled

Judge John c. Pollock, United
States District Judge of Kansas,
rendered sweeping decision last
Thursday in which the state guar
anty bank deposit law was held to
be unconstitutional, and unless a
higher court comes to the states
relief there will be no guarantee
ing of bank deposits in Kansas un-
til the Legislature tries again.
Jud5e Pollock holds the law void
on two grounds. First, that any
stockholder in a bank may prevent
such bank from guaranteeing its
deposits, and second, that the law
is unconstitutional in that it vio-
lates the fourteentA amendment of
the federal constitution by confer
ring special privileges on certain
classes, meaning that it gives state
banks an advantage over national
banks.
EsThe decision was to be expect
ed. Judge Pollock is a part of the
old republican machine and has
never been in sympathy with the
square deal movement. His de-
cision is a severe blow to the peo-
pie of Kansas who are overwhelm-
ingly in favor of this law, and it
again emphasizes the injustice of a
federal court interfering with the
will of the people of a state.
But in the end, Judge Pollock S
decision may have a salutary ef-
feet. There was too much milk
and water in this law, injected in,
to it by politicians for a purpose,
and now it is likely that the next
legislature will wake up and en-
act a cleanCut genuine measure.
There is, Of course, no assurance
that the best kind of a law would
stand before Judge Pollock, but
when the people become wise
enough to swat every candidate
and every party opposed to their
interests, even the federal judges
will sit up aud take notice.
State Bank Commissioner Dol.
ley announces that the state will
appeal from Judge Pollock's de-
Cision.
In the meantime let there be an
agitation to curtail the power of
federal Judges.

Barber County at K. S. A. c.

The Barber and Sedgwick Coun-
ty Clubs held meeting last week
and the two clubs decided that as
there were not enough persons in
either to charter a car, that the
two counties together could get
enough persons to charter one from
Manhattan to Wichita. The re.
quest of the two counties was
granted and they secured charter
ed car. This will be more convent.
ent than the way we usually have
to go-in cars packed until there is
no room to stand. JACK.

The Taxpayers Furnish it

The Barber County Index says
the state needs money. If the In
dex will specify the amount, Sedg-
wick county will provide it at le-
gal rates of interest.-Wichita Bea.
con.
The powers that be are using a
better plan than that. They sim
ply shove taxes up and the people
furnish the money, thus evading the
necessity of borrowing. Barber
county pays over $4,000 into the
state treasury this year. Last year
it paid $4,000, while in the days
of Leedy and Lewelling $4,000 tc
$4,000 was sufficient. But in those
days governors didn't need S1o,.
900 contingent fund and the legis
latures weren't In the habit of ere.
ating new offices and raising sal.
aries and providing sinecures fol

Fred has been kept quite busy with
his contract building the Lake City

months but with all conditions
favorable he will have the Job
completed next week. He says
the mill will be in operation with
in few days after its completion
and its capacity will be from twen-
ty to forty tons of alfalfa meal per
day. 1t will be the largest mill in
this part of the state and is unmis-

st. Marks Church

At St. Marks Church Christmas
eve the Sunday school children
with their parents and friends were
given supper in the basement of
the church, which was decorated
for the occasion with evergreens
and !insel.
In the center of the table at
which the children were seated
was miniature Christmas tree
which was thing of beauty.
Through the kindess of Harry
Terry, each child received beau
tiful box filled with candy and it
was amusing to see the little tots
hunt for their names on the boxes
to locate their places.
After the six o'clock supper was
served and the children had romp-
ed to their hearts content they
gathered around an imitation fire
place where their presents were
hidden. After reciting their pieces
each one was given a present and
went home happy.
The new rector, Rev. Howard
Cady, will hold services in the
church on January 2nd.

at Hyde Park, Chicago, bearing
on the death of Colonel w. A. Har-
ris:
81 am sure that l express a uni
versal sentiment in Kansas this
morning when l say to you that

nent place in the respect and af-
lection of Kansas people"
Speaking of the death of Colon
ell Harris and of the man, Governor
Stubbs said yesterday:
"He was one Of the best men
that every lived and l loved him
personally for broad and splendid
man. | think he was a splendid
type of Kansas man and his death
will be great loss to the state
Without regard to party, church or
creed, the people of this state will
mourn his death. He had~.b been
tried and tested and found true.
His greatest service to the public
was his saving of millions of dol
lars for the state in the Union Pa
ciflc deal years ago.
