Tsented in its make up, in fact the best
people of the town are members.
When spoken to concerning the trip
several members of the band were
very enthusiastic over it.
I'VE have the best band in western
Kansas at the present time. We have
some old band men who really know
good music and in that way we are
able to keep the band up to a high
standard of quality. Also we have the
best men in the town in the band"
said a member.
The band will take twenty-five men
to Salt Lake and will play in the
parades and be shown many favors by
the committee on music at Salt Lake.
The director of the band is DIR. B. J.
Patterson, at one time the director of
the famous Hays, Kan, Military
band. This band under his direction
won the championship of western
Kansas in an open contest.
Other prominent members of the
band are a. A. GilIispie, postmaster
and editor of the Rexford News; r.

REBELS ARE DEFEATED.
Madrid Reports a Government Victory
at Barcelona.

Madrid, July 30.-The news from
Barcelona that the cavalry and troops
have gained the upperhand and cap
tured the main body of insurgents and
that only isolated bands are holding
out in the suburbs, creates the greatest
relief in official circles here. The
work of repression will rapidly be fol-
lowed up throughout the Catalonian
aptaincy-genefal.
Late last night it was officially an
nouneed that the cavalry engaged at
Barcelona had succeeded in driving
into ST. Martins square the principal
band of reVolutionists, against whom
the artillery opened fire. After fight
ing desperately and successfully for
long time the revolutionists were sur
rounded. Many persons were killed
in the fighting and the survivors sur
rendered to the troops.
No figures are given of the casual
ties at Barcelona.

sas City market. The scare also hit
New York for raise of five C.nts. per
busheI and it began to look like the
dollar mark for the Kansas farmers

hour, nothing has been introduced to
dispel the rust scare, but the fact that
the Kansas City market slumped a

the report, indicates that purchasers

Should the bulk of the Nebraska wheat
prove to be damaged by rust. the Kan

CHICAGO IN DANGER.
Liable to Bigger Fire Than That
of 1871.

Chicago, July so-The danger of q
great confagration in Chicago is point
ed out by City Engineer John Ericsson
in report made to Commissioner OF
Public Works Hanberg on a high pres
sure water system.
The great fire of 1871. which destroy
ed 17,43o buildings in Chicago and
caused a total property loss of $16s, Oo0,-
600, was the biggest in this country and
Canada between 1920 and 1905, but Mr..
Ericsson indicates that it is possible for
fire loss much greater now, and de-
clares that Chicago is ill-prepared to
protect itself. The water supply is
insufficient and the buildings such as
would easily burn.
