BOUNTY HAS PAID.
Mr.. Duncksr ofths Board Of Commissioners
Says Rabbits are Thinning Out In
his Part Of the County.

pr. Duucker, who has kept pretty
close tab on the Jack rabbit question
since the bounty has been paid, says
that in his part Of the county the
rabbits are noticeably fewer this year.
There are a few farmers who will NOT
allow rabbit hunting party on their
lands and this makes some territory
where the rabbits msy breed unmo-
Tested. II these farmers would al.
low the rabbits hunted on their lands
the general raid on them would be
more successful. AS it is il the vast
numbers Of them had not been killed
in the past year there would be &C
many that outside crops would be
nearly eaten up by them. This ID
encouraging, that while there are
still such vast numbers Of them in
the county, they are becoming
scsrcer in some localities. II is Mr..
Duncker's opinion from close obssr
vation OF the matter that the bounty
has done good and has been a pro-
fitable investment for the county.

There will no doubt be o lot Of the

that it was bought from short or

J \ g. s.,..' Months. NTH y"

'F SAAsosi"u Shutou III AoyCXo SlSy VI
Christmas morning had been over.
(me by generous pledg from the
members and the commt lity, SO that
while it will be much latdr before the
church can be used, the building will
be completed fully as good as origin
ally planned, and possibly better.
Mr.. Parham, one Of the contractors
will make q trip to eastern Kansas
the latter part Of the week, to investi-
gate the brick question. AS has been
stated there is an inclination on the
part Of some Of the building committee
to rebuild Of brick, instead Of using
cement blocks. After Mr.. Parham'a
return he will report to the committee
and the matter of material for the
pnilding will then be considered.
K The canvass for donations) to the
building fund, which was conducted
last Friday by committees, was a
great success. As the fund grew the
church be ! was tolled each time q
snew hundred dollar mark was reach
cd, and ii was kept ringing a good
deal Of the time. The canvassers re
ported by telephone to the head
quarters as soon as the contribu-
!. tions received reached twenty-five
dollars. The canvass was certainly
managed with skill, and as planned
7-nfs start the necessary amount to
the rebuilding Of the church
NJ T. raised in one day.
De. During the forenoon the fund
quickly jumped to $1,000, then $4,000
then $4,000 was followed by $2500.
In the evening whei- the committees
were all together and the figures
could be compared, it was found
that the pledges amounted to sum
exceeding $4,000.
The building committee will take
Ia rye part Of the loss of Of the
@ contractors. Parham & Upp who
illegally would be the losers from the
mare while they will lose the profits
hisn the contract, will not lose tho
the loney they have spent, nor their
.alga9me y .aame. Tie building committee will
use the $4,000 insurance money,
4 the $4,000 pledged Friday, and will
{be able to meet the loss sustained
BY the FIRE and proceed with rebuild
ing. The excavating, the founda-
ton, cement floor in the basement are
good start. Perhaps two or three
hundred d.llars OF material that had
been purchased, had not been taken
0 o the building and so was not lost.
vi rhe contractors bad quito a lot OF
yhs material in their shop for finish
bg, when the fire occurred.
III No definite idea can be had yet as
M 'eyhsn the building can be COM
VI srtsd. It lie the plan to have it
wi4arled as coon as the weather and
circumstances will permit, and il will
!. y llrely be finished at the earliest pos
.le date. How long 1t will take to
whot the material, after plans are settle
Newlupon, is something that can not
Editlold at this time. The church is
bh pleased over the successful can
~ of Friday, and the minister and
@lbers Of the congregation are
ii 10y 10 the thought that after all Of
difficulties in raising the original
siding fund and the loss Of the
asch by FIRE, the work will only be
cback q few months, and the build
be better. possibly. than at
Il planned.

Charley Schofeld for rider, won
over the Purdy and Hye horses;
Hye and Purdy raced and Purdy
won. Then Purdy and McMahan
horse raced again, the latter Win
ning by a nose in the closest race
ever seen in Elk City. The two
horses raced again Monday even
ing but, on account Of Door

full length. Another race was
billed for Tuesday evening be-
tween the Purdy horse and q
horse belonging to a freighter,
but it was a fizzle, the freighter's
horse quitting in the middle Of
the run.
The town was full Of people
the two days and there was as
much fun and noise as on any
other celebration.

as reported by this paper last

the conclusion that the cream has
been skinned Of unclaimed
