An Old Kansan Here.

Mt. ]. 1. Stevens of Goats Kan

visit TO his son o. R. Stevens, of the
Meade Dry Goods Co., and attend

Mr.. Stevens served during the civil

it first was organized at the close OF
the war. Being member of the

the subordinate lodge for AZ years
he contemplates attending each of
the meetings of that order while
here. We suppose he is escecially
interested in these as his son O. r.
is the highest official of the Patri-
archs Militant in Kansas. Mr..
Stevens is one of the frontier men in
Kansas as he settled on a claim in
Pettawattomie county in 1870 and
not being fully satisfied with helping
to make that county land of homes.
schools and churches, which he had
ertered while it was. the hunting
ground of the Indians, he in 1884
again removed TO the west, settling
in Pratt county. This proving SO
healthful place for his family, he
again entered into the task of doing
his part to bringing pioneer county
to the high plane which that county
now enjoys.
Mr.. Stevens is yet a hale hearty
man, young in all the impulses of
life and yet doing his duty as a
bread winner and citizen.

fire which was in Harry Shulty's

The Cannon Cracker Claims An-

A few days ago Mr.. Ernest.

back room of the Fletcher furniture
Co. While so engaged they found
box or part of box of large fire:
crackers which the company had.
refused some two years since to SELF

overlooked in returning the stock
after the fourth of July sale of that
year. This box the boys found as.
stated above. Boy like, they ap-

they belonged to the Fletcher boys.
father, they had right to do.
Tuesday night just before bedtime:
Major remarked that he would go,
out and fire a cracker and then go
to bed. He fired the cracker with
the result that he is now practically
without right hand, the two mid
die fingers of that hand and the
thumb being blown off by the explo-.
sion. All that remains being the,
fore finger and the little finger.
We learn that after DR.. Fee, hati
dressed the wound, Major rested as.

and that there is no immediate
danger of any more serious COM

Now he WI be cripple:

We would suggest that by COM
