Work on Church Starts

]. M. Parkham, of Dodge City
is in Meade this week. He has
the contract for building the
Episcopal Church at this place.
Mr.. Parkham has had experience
along this line, having had charge
of the erection of the Government
buildings at Dodge City.
AS we stated last last week,
the structure will be of pressed
brick and will be modern through
out.
Work of excavating the base
ment has already begun, and the
building will be completed as
soon as can qe well done.

Mrs. C. M. Harris while filling a
gasoline stove Wednesday forenoon,
sustained serious burns which may
prove fatal. Mrs. Harris was down
town in the fore noon and returning
home lighted the stove and started
dinner. The stove showed signs of
going out, indicating that it needed
filling. Without even turning oft
the burner Mrs. Harris began filling
the tank, cuasing the gasoline to ex-
plode enwrapping her in flames like
a flash of lightning. Neighbors
rushed to her rescue as quickly as
possible but were unable to extingalsh
the flames until she was seriously
burned. Drs. Kendall and Bruce
were summonsed as soon as possible
and they did all in their power to
reduce her suffering but hold out
little hopes for :er recovery. She
was taken to Wichita, where her
folks reside. She was unconcious
last night and but little hopes is
held out for her recovery.-Englc-

Notice To Our Patrons.

AS we are now distributing our
new directories we kindly ask
our patrons that they call by
number, thus saving any friction
and annoyance also lettering the
service. The number of the
phones is increasing so it is get
ting impossible for the operator
to rememb Der peoples numbers.
There are also several by the
same name on our lines making
it impossible to know which
Clones" or which Smith" is
wanted when party calls in and
says "Giv'm Jones" or "Giv'm
Smiths. We take this method
in requesting our prtrons to help
us in this matter so it will not be
necessary for us set date after
which no calls except by number
will be answered, which we will
have to do if we do not receive
this assistance from our patrons.

of the best countries on the globe is
around Meade, and her unlimited
resources have but barely been

The announcement of quarterly
meeting this week was mistake.
1t will not be till August 10.
Sunday night we had to be con-
tent with few oil lamps for light,
but there was good congregation.
Let us have plenty of light within
US for we should be children of light.
There were less than 100 at Sum-
day School, but the interest is good.
The falling off is among the chill
dren. We think 1t will not be worth
while to note the attendance until it
goes above 100.

also walk in the spirit"
Every Christian should live to
help others and not to please him

FRENCH FISH STORY.

Three Days Carnival of Marpignon's
 Intrepid Anglers.
 Though their lakes and ponds are few and their rivers comparatively destitute of fish, the French people are extremely fond of angling. Indeed, nervous and excitable as the average Frenchman may be, he is content to sit by a stream with pole and wait all day for q bite.
 In certain country town not far from Paris there existed fishing club named the Intrepid Fishers of Marpi. gron. :, pretty stream goes through AIarpignon. but for many years not one fish had been seen in this stream, from which circumstance, 1t followed, :he Intrepid Fishers had little to do, says Harper's Weekly.
 The excitement may be imagined. therefore. when the word ran through Marpignon that large barbel-a tough and gamy fish-had been seen in the stream. The Intrepid Fishers turned out and, having ascertained that there was indeed a barbel in the stream, immediately stopped the wa ter some little distance above and be low him with gratings so that he could not get away.
 Then they ranged themselves joy fully along the stream with hook and line. and all went to fishing for the one fish.
 By and by one Intrepid Fisher caught him and immediately threw him back into the water. In the course of time another caught him and did the same
 For three days one veracious ac- count has 1t the Intrepid Fishers kept at work catching this one barbel, ahd at the end of that time the fish died of exhaustion and loss of blood. Then the Intrepid Fishers counted up the notches that they had made on their Ash poles, and the man who had caught the barbel the most times was declared the champion fisherman ot Marpignon and received great honors
