Spent The Money.

When No. 1 stopped here Tues
day afternoon, some thirty or for
toy Greeks got of the train, and
made a run up the middle of the
street for the city bakery, where
they purchased some three hun
dred loaves of bread in less than
fifteen minutes. A few of the
more prosperous ones also bought
pies. They didn't wait to have
them wrapped up, but carried
their purchases down the street in
their arms. At the Star Grocery
they were attracted by the win
dow display of bottled vinegar.
They also had a strong appetite
for the glass that cheers. and
thinking it was whiskey, bought
the entire stock at so cents a bot
tie. Of course they did not have
time to open any of it on the
premises, and we can only sur
mise as to what they thought when
the bottles we're opened.

Liberal Looks Good.

A trip through Minneola, Buck
lin, Meade and Ashland has con-
Vinced the editor that business here
is in better shape this spring than
in any of those prosperous towns.
The crop prospects around this
section are rs good, if not better,
than they are so miles east of
here, where land is from $5 to $40
an acre higher than it is here.
Clark county farmers are talking
now of sowing broomcorn and
maize. While much of the wheat
east will make a crop if the season
is favorable, q large per cent of it
is dead or blown out, and in other
fields the yield cannot 90 above 10
bushels to the acre under the most
favorable conditions and on the
whole Meade county is in better
shape than Seward Clark or the
south half Of Ford counties.

the hustling Commercial Club of

peared to have a good time, the
only drawback of the day being
the fact that Bucklin had such a
round of entertainment. there
was hardly sufficient time for the
sessions of the organization, The
pace they set there will be a pretty

man who was atBucklin will be
on hand for the next meeting here.
