on the little neck of land that
separates Spirit Lake from the former.
Capt. Thompson Is a formerC antonite
and one of the most popular shippers
on the lakes. In a steamboat trip
from Arnold's Park to the Orleans
House the boat passes between two
narrow necks connected by draw
bridges and the trip is romanbicaiy
beautiful. In fact the scenery every
where is beautiful and much of the
shore line has a natural wall of rocks
forced out of the lake bottom by the
action of the ice. Capt. Thompson Is
a model fresh water sailor and very
popular with the travelling public.
The Canton party enjoyed a trip with
him, and when one makes a tour OF
the lakes with this gallant skipper he
returns delighted and pleased.
Arnold's Park is a pleasant roomy
resort with stores and other con-
viences of a town, and the Arnold's
Park Hotel is a good place to stop at,
1t is managed by Messrs. Moore and
Miller, pleasant gentlemen who run
the house on common sense principles
without frills or nonsense, where you
are sat home'' all the time.
Mrs. Claudia Rudolph and her three
sons of Canton occupy a cottage near
the Okoboji post office and are having
a delightful outing. Mrs. John Bert
rand and daughter-in-law with Jack
Nordgaard of this city are stopping at
the Manhattan and you meet people
from many different parts Of the
country.
The town of Spirit Lake is a neat,
lively place where people find a good
hotel when the hotels at the lakes are
full. Spirit Lake is about the size of
Lake Okoboji but fails to charm the
tourists as few cottages are found on
it's shores.
Saturday afternoon it began raining
and the wind began to blow and by
Sunday morning a gale was rolling up
white caps'' over the lake, and as we
stood on the bluff watching the waves
roll in with monotonous regularity we
wanted to sing "What Are the Wild
Waves Saying" but our voice was out
of tune and we only thought Of other
days.
The morning train from Spencer
brought in three or four hundred
Sunday visitors and the crowd at the
hotel grew in numbers and the at
mosphere called for wraps and over
coats and all sought shelter from the
gale as it swept across the lake. The
Canton party was not hunting for a
Medicine Hat climate so concluded to
spend the night at "The Antlers''
hotel at Spirit Lake and the auto did
duty again.
Monday morning the wind was
blowing a gale and as we were anxious
to come home in an auto instead of a
sleigh, the auto was brought from its
quarters and we headed south for
Spencer where we turned west headed
for home, meeting an occasional
shower which stung the cheeks az we
rushed along at 25 mile speed in the
face Of a so mile gale. We took
dinner at Sanborn and then headed
for Rock Valley and then to Fairview
and home.
1t was a delightful outing and the
auto ride was the most enjoyab, part
of it all. and Miss Rudolph proved to
he an expert driver. and Mr.. and Mrs.
Rudolph have the thanks of the
LEADER party for their share in the
pleasures of the trip.

Paul Gilmore iu the Bachelor Pleased
Large Audience

No other play that has ever been
given in Welsh has rccieyed the unit
versally favorable criticism that Ihs
Bachelor, played by Paul Gilmore
supported by select company OF
players, last Friday night, is reciev-
ing. Mr.. Gilmore won his audience
in the beginning and held them
throughout the entire play.
There was not airy or uninterested
passage in the entire play, nor was
there anything in Mr.. Gilmore's rem
dering that was stacy, or in anywlSe
stilted. The support throughout was
excellent. Frequent encores at the
closing of scenes gave the best posi-
bic proof of the hearty appreciation
accorded the players by the audience.
Mr.. Gilmore will certainly be well
come in Welsh whenever he may choose
to appear here in the future, and We
have manager, Armstrong; assurance
that he will try and book him for
next season.

Substitute Salary For Fees.

In Kansas, the legislature is wrest
ling with the question OF readjusting
the salaries Of county officers. The
measure, as fuslly agreed upon in
committee, gives the county treasurer
(who collects the taxes $500 and 81
annually for each 100 persons in the
county. The county clerk gets $500
and 81 for each 10J population. 9th
err offices are adjusted On the same bas.
is; and all fees for recording, collect
ing, ETC., are turned into the treasury.
Probably all the salaries of all the
officers in q county of the same pOpu-
lalion as Calcasieu, could be paid from
the income OF one Office, alone, in Cal
casieu parish.
The income of most of the officials in
Calcasieu parish is involved in deep
and imp netrable mystery. 1t comes
from 80 many divergent sources and is
derived from such multiplicity OF
fees that no one can possibly calcu-
late it, and no official statement or
supervision OF it is required. Much
of it is paid directly by the people to
the officer, and that ends the trans
action.
Most people have positive opinion
that the officers, as rule, are over.
paid; but their opinion is bnt an Opin-
ion, after all Things which are mys-
FERROUS are likely to be exaggerated.
Perhaps some of our officers are real
~ making sacrilice-though we doubt
it. But We submit that such method
OF paying officers is wrong ard in
businesSlike. The people of the par
ish should know what taxes they are
paying, for fee is one form Of tax.
And this can only be accomplished in
one way-by definitely fixing the COM
pensation the officer should receive,
and the amount he is allowed to ex.
pend for clerk hire, and requiring
that all fees be turned into the public
treasury. DAILY American Press.

80, 600 Worth Of Iowa Property De.
stroJed by Fire.-Thought to
Have Been Started BY 'Iramps,

The tramp nuisance demanded its
toll, through fire, from the Iowa To-
cality, last week, when the large resi-
dence, barn and storage sheds on the
Longenbach property, south of town,
was destroyed by fire. This property,
which Mr.. Longenbach recently trad
ed to parties in the north, has been
vacant for some little time, but was
soon to have been occupied by the
new owners, and was in excellent con-
dition.
About nine o'clock Saturday morn.
ing neighbors, q mile distant, noticed
smoke ascending from the barn. They
went to the scene as quickly as pos
sible, but by the time they reached
the place, both the barn and the
house were in flames. The buildings
were entirely destroyed, involving q
loss of somewhere near $1,000. The
origin of the fire is unknown, but il
is suspicioned that it was started b,
tramps, who may have stopped there
during the night and neglected to ex.
tinguished their fire.
