prlsed to lind it such an up-to-
date institution. The rooms are
a. well ventilated, and every
thing SHOWS that it is kept
up to the highest standard. This
institution is a credit to Barton
county and one that the coun-
'y should feel proud of. There
is no need of any of our people
going to any other city when
~ looking Tor first-class
'spital, for the st. Rose at
Great Bend can compare with
any Of them.
There has been considerable
complaint made in the last week
about dogs running at large and
Jung chickens, etc. Last Mon.
lay. night some dog got into
Chris Hermes' yard and killed
two nice pheasants, some of the
best specimens ever brought to
this country, tore down part Of
the fence and in other ways dam
aged property. At the poultry
yard. they claim that about $50
worth of chickens have been
killed by dogs. If the owners
of these dogs don't keep them
tied up at night they are liable
. be dog short some morning,
for people will not stand for
these dogs killing their fowls.

never ending source o. porpleNity to

make II possible TO extend the

who has cultivated the reading ha-

iaration In temperate exercise and
manly sport.
Books, selected by students OF
the prevailing literature and by Non
who have made Il study of childpn,
should he placed attractiyely before
the child and the child taught ia

reading will quickly be formed, aud

WRIGHT MAKES NEW RECORD
Stays In Air One Hour and Twelve
Minutes With Passenger.


Washington. July 28.-The worlds
seroplane record for two men. as to
both time and distance. was broken
in a beautiful flight OF one hour, twelve
minutes and forty seconds-upwards
of fifty miles and at a speed averaging
about forty miles an hour, by Orville
Wright at Fort Myer, with Lieutenant
Frank P. Lahm. of the army signal
corps. as passenger The former record
was made last year by his brother
Wilbur joint inventor with MIN of the
machine in which both achievements
were performed, at lie Mans, France.
That fight was one hour. nine minutes
and thirty-one seconds.
The cheering which heralded the
setting of a new mark in the conquest
of the air was led by President Taft
in person. who had sat, an intensely
interested spectator, throughout the
flight, and who insisted at its cOnclu-
sion upon personally congratulating
the brothers upon their success. This
success was all-important to the two
Wrights, in that it completed the first
OF two crucial tests of thelT machine
imposed upon them by the United
States government-the so-called zen
durance test" which required them to
remain one hour continuously in the
air with one passenger

French Aviator Within Two Miles Of
Dover When Accident Happened.
Dover. Eng. July 2S.-Hubert Lath-
ans second attempt to fly across the
English Channel ended disastrously.
Almost in the moment of victory his
monoplane futtered down into the sea
two miles beyond the admiralty pier,
like a bird with a broken wing. Thou
sands of persons crowding the water
front saw the fall, and for nearly an
hour they were kept in suspense not
knowing whether the daring aeronaut
had met death or again had been res
cued from the water.
A flock of large and small craft
raced to the scene of the disaster and
a pinnace from the British battleship
Russell picked up the unlucky flyer
and put him on board the French tor
pedoboat destroyer Escopette. After
surgeon had attended to his injuries
the destroyer brought Latham ashore
and he was taken to the Lord Warden
hotel. His face was bandaged and
bleeding and his nose was broken. The
machine, badly wrecked, was hoisted
from the boat to the dock.

HEN SCRATCHES UP $11,COO
Gems Stolen In April Found Under
Porch Where Thief Buried Them.


Porch Where Thief Buried Them.
Asbury Park, N. j., July 2S.-The
return of nearly $1,000 worth of jew
elry, stolen last April from his home
in Lakewood, is the cause of great re-
joicing on the part of William NJ
Skinner Charles Goldstein found the
gems under the front porch of Skin
ner's residence.
The scratching of an industrious
hen under the porch disclosed the jew
els. In the process of scratching a
piece of jewelry was turned up and the
attention of GoIdstein was attracted
to the spot. His investigations were
well rewarded. for the entire lot taken
in April soon was brought forth from
the ground Goldstein returned it to
the owner.
It is thought that the thief was
afraid to attempt the sale of the jew.
elry for fear of apprehension and hid
the loot under the Skinner porch.
