Rev. Watson Dana's great-grand-

in a stones throw of the Dana mill,
whose crumbling stone walls served
for pictures for many a famous artist.
His father was a minister and the
boy grew up in an atmosphere of re-
ligion. Early in life he began preach

course was taken behind the counter
of a country store and his theological
course on horseback.
There was not a railroad in the

poor to support minister.

On Ghosts.

James II. Hyslop, the brilliant psy-
chologist, narrated, during a discus
sion of the Paladin case in New York,
an original old lady's opinion of
ghosts.
"Ghostsi" exclaimed the old lady,
scornfully. q don't take any stock in

place it isn't likely that you'd want
to waddle back to this poor vale of
trouble, while if you go to the bad
place you'll be kept there

Cimarron river in the counties of
Grant, Etevens, Haskell, Seward and

BETTER LATE THAN EARLY
Here Is Case Where the Sage Old
Proverb Might with Profit Have
Been Reversed.

There is a certain young Broad
street broker whose recent sad expert
ence in endeavoring to pull the wool
over his wife's eyes has led him to de-
clare never again.
Now, it is the brokers' custom to
take a $50 suburban train, thus en-
abling him to reach his home in West
chester in ample time for the early
dinner that both he and his wife like.
The other day he fell. Meeting an
old college mate he yielded to the lat
ter's entreaties for an evening in town.
The next step was, of course, to tele-
graph the wife, which he did in these
terms: ''Unavoidably detained. Missed
the $50. Home later"
When hubby finally did show up, he
observed an expression on the coun-
tenance of his spouse that argued fail
ure of his little fib.
whats the trouble, dear?" he
asked, with an affected nonchalance.
Without word the wife handed him
the telegraph slip, Indicating with her
forefinger the words:
Received at 4:45."-Lippincott'

Tree Spraying too Costly.

The state law which provides for
the spraying of trees and plants in
fected with San Jose scale and other
funga and which also provides that
unless the trees are sprayed by the
owner they will be sprayed by the
state and the expense charged to the
property, or will be destroyed, is to be
tested in the Sedgwick county district
court. An application for an injunc-
ton restraining Prof Glenn of the
state entomology department and his
assistants from spraying the trees in
the orchard of S. M. Balch, was filed
in the court recently.

of the performance in the animals
cage, but the keeper was cool and de-
termined. AS he sought to turn the
angry beast into it's own cage, opening
from that in which the performance
was given, the lion, evading the keep
er by swift movement, made rush
at the kangaroo. The latter got In
some powerful kicks on the body OF It's
assailant, but it could not throw hlm
off. and soon gave up the struggle,
and died shortly after the lion had
buried it's fangs in its flesh. Great
excitement reigned, and several per-
sons made a hurried exit from the cir
Gus tent while the unequal combat
was III progress.
