FAIR ASSOCIATION AND THE
BAIL BOYS GET TOGETHER
League Games win be Played at
Fair Grounds ON Track.

The board of directors OF the fail
association held a meeting last night
and consented to let the Abilene ball
team have the use Of the grounds
during the coming season for 5000.
The home plate will be moved back
IL feet on the track SO as to give the
spectators a better view Of the game.
This is an excellent solution of the
matter and insures a fine ball season
for Abilene. The fair association de-
serves credit for its efforts to help
out the team and Abilene will see
that in turn the fair is made a hum
mer.

DIR. FLoREN HAS RESIGNED.
Popular Swedish Pastor to Take q
Trip Abroad. IN

Enterprise, April 22.-Dr. J. q.
Floren, A. M, Phi. D., has resigned
the pastorate of the Swedish Luth-
eran church east Of this city, and will
go abroad early this summer. His
resignation was officially accepted
last Sunday. Doctor Floren was
also pastor of the Swedish Lutheran
church at Sallna which charge he
has also given up. He may resume
his parish after his return from Eu-
rope. III
DR.. Floren is perhaps the most
widely known Swedish minister in
the state of Kansas, and has always
been known as one OF the best edu-
Gated men in the state.
In religious matters, DR.. Floren's
ideas have always been ascertained,
and he Is no doubt closer to the
Swedish people and their wants in
this county, than any other living
man. He has been kind and liberal
to the poor and needy, especially
within his own church membership,
and the Swedish people of this COM
munity regret to lose him as a
minister.

HOW TO GROW FAT.
A Lazy Stomach the Cause Of Thin
ness, Nine Times In Ten.

If you are thin or lean, have scraw'
ney arms and neck, you can't grow
fat unless your food properly dIgests
People take on flesh In proportion
to the nutritious matter which the
organs of digestion absorb and pass
into the blood.
Just as long as this nutritious
matter passes along without being
absorbed, Just SO long will you re-
main thin.
Perhaps your stomach, bowels and
liver need a tonic. II your digestion
is not perfect, Ml-o-na tablets will
put it right at once.
Mi-o-na will cure Indigestion and
every conceivable ailment Of the
stomach promptly. II cures by build
ing and toning up and not by encour-
aging a tired stomach to continue It's
shiftless and health destroying habit.
1t promptly drives away sour stom-
ach, belching of gas, heaviness after
eating.
J. NJ. Gleissner sells Ml-o-na for
so cents a large box, and guarantees
t to cure Indigestion, sea and car
sickness, vomiting of pregnancy and
III stomach diseases and distress, or
money back.
Mi-o-na is sold by leading drug
lists everywhere.

THEY ARE HAVING A SCRAP.
H. N. Gaines and Jim Butler Lawing
at Topeka.

D. Topeka, April 22.-The prrspec
e Of the district court allowing H. N
Gaines, who is suing the Kansas
Z Farmer for libel and $4,000 dam
p ages, large amount of damages
went glimmering yesterday when
: Judge Dana permitted the defense ia
introduce the testimony OF lanes
Butler, formerly editor of the CO.
Operative Leader, which is alleged to
have printed libelous article. The
closing arguments were given yes
terday afternoon and Judge Dana is
preparing his instructions for the
jury. Court will convene at o'clock
this morning, when these instruc-
tons will be read.
When the case against Butler was
dismissed April s, the defense
thought he was eliminated from the
case. Yesterday Butler was sum-
moned to the stand and the testi-
mony he gave showed that the publi-
cation of the alleged libelous articles.
which the Kansas Farmer printed for
Butler, was provoked by prior out
bursts from the plaintiff.
Gaines, the plaintiff, was at one
time State Superintendent Of Public
instruction. He later published the
Farmers Advocate. In this paper,
Butler testified, many scurrilous at
tacks were made upon the editor of
the Leader. The attack was alleged
to have been even more personal
and damaging than the one which
Butler wrote, calling Gaines Bene-
dict Arnold, a Harry Orchard and a
man without principle or honor.
Gaines is alleged to have started the
feud between the editors of
the two papers.
Butler testified that his attack on
Gaines was in retaliation for libelous ,
articles printed in the Farmers Ad- :
vocate. Butler was charged with
having deserted his wife and family
and with having run off with an :
other mans wife. This was the
spark which set off Butler and caus-
I'd the alleged libelous articles to be
written
The Kansas Farmer appears to be
he only one to suffer from the at
lacks which followed. This COM
,any had a contract to print Buffers
Cooperative Leader. The owners
Jay they were not acquainted with
he character of the articles printed. u
But technically, the concern is La i
Die for having printed the stories,
,r logical to have aided and abetted i"
he alleged criminal acts. ~
