HUNNEwELL COUNCIL AT WORK
Transacts First Business Since IncuHl-

Hunnewen, Kan, July AT last the
city council here met Mrs Ella Wilson.
the mayor, last night. This was the
first regular meeting the aldermen
have attended since she was selected
the head of the city government on
April l.
The meeting hardly could be called a
victory for the mayor. But two pieces
of official business were transacted.
The RESIGNATION of Alderman W. L.
providing for repairing the town pump
was adopted. This last bit of legtsla-
ton practically was forced upon the
council Since the council last met the
pump had fallen into bad state of re-
pair 1t just had to be fixed.
Every appointment the mayor asked
tho council to confirm was turned
down Mayor Wilson says she Is de-
termined to have her selections in Of
flee and she will continue TO present
their names for confirmation at every
meeting Of the council from this time
henceforth.
Mrs. Wilson first proposed the name
Of Mrs. e. R. Hilton for city clerk The
counciImen smiled, nodded approval
and then refused, unanimously to con-
firm Mrs. F1ilton's appointment. Prot-
H. A Clark of the Hunnewell schools,
whose name was presented by the
mayor for the office of city treasurer
likewise was turned down.
When the mayor named Robert
Boyer for city marshal. Alderman ]. F.
| Richardson said:
:" don't need marshal. There
will be no arrests here
| Now one of the mayors announced
reforms is to clean up the town
morally She ayers dives exist here
and that pool halls are being run in
violation of the law. So when the
alderman suggested that no necessity
for a marshal existed, she made the
assertion that she would see that there
was a marshal and that he would find
something to do.

Thayer, July 4-This usually quiet
little CITY was wrought up to an I'M
usual state of excitement by an inter-
esting affair, in which father, son.
and daughter, and an ardent sutton
were participants. Those engaging IN
this little bit of excitement were G. W.

son; Miss Blanch Elliott, the daughter
and Ray Shepherd, the ardent suitor

about five miles southeast. between
Thayer and Ga1esburg. From the tes-
timony brought out at the trial the
facts seem to be as follows:
Young Shepherd has been keeping
company with Miss Blanch Elliott, q
young lady of about II summers,
against the wishes of the Elliott fam
lily. He had been notified by letter not
to go with Miss Blanch or to come on
the Elliott premises.
That night the Elliott family attend
ed the protracted meeting at the park
So cid Ray Shepherd. He succeeded in
getting with Miss Blanch and started
to take her home The father, c. w.
Elliott, called his son Otis to follow
them and bring the girl back, but the
young people reached the Elliott homo
first and when Otis got there he found
MSS Blanch alone, Shepherd having
gone.
He proceeded to upbraid Miss Blanch
for going with Shepherd against her
parents wishes, which angered her,
and she retorted by saying she would
so with Shepherd and go with him
right now. She started from the house
towards town and her father again told
Otis to go and bring her back, which he
| started to do.
| When he overlook her he picked her
up in his arms to carry her to the
house. She began to scream and cry
! loudly, and at this juncture young
Shepherd appeared upon the scene,
striking Otis over the head with a club
a couple of times. A general fight re-
suited, Otis getting the club from Shep-
herd and striking him over the head
seven times. cutting some severe
gashes.
While the fighting was going on be-
tween these young gentlemen, the faith
er appeared and attempted to carry
Miss Blanch to the house which caused
still more excitement. The city mar
shall was telephoned for by the excited
| 1eighbors and he and Councilman w
r. Robbins went to that part of town,
arrested the two young men and took
them to police court, where they both
pleaded guilty to fighting on the
streets and were fined IS each, and
costs amounting to SO.

was then turned over to a committee to
pass upon
Finally, it was moved and seconded
that the council adjourn. Without
waiting to cast the vote, Mrs. Wilson
declared the meeting adjourned. But
the aldermen did not move.
What are you waiting for?' she de-
manded.
This question brought a laugh from
the council. and then some one ex-
planned that 1t was the mayors duty to
act on the motion.
After the meeting Mrs. Wilson re1t-
Grated her statement that she would
fight the council to a finish.

ner? have often wondered
what their object is.
AS matter of fact, EVERY
NEWSPAPER that is used
REGULARLY by an advertiser
WILL BRING HIM RETURNS.
HE SHOULD NEVER TAKE
ON A NEWSPAPER that he
does not intend to use regularly.
1t takes time to win the trade
of the people who read their
favorite newspaper. An occa-
sional advertisement is not suf-
ficient. People are too busy to
remember the fact that John
Jones advertised once last month
BUT THEY WILL REMEM-
Der HIM if he has advertised
ten or twelve or fifteen or
twenty times last month.
An advertiser cannot AL
WAYS afford to use EVERY
newspaper in a community, but
those he uses SHOULD BE
USED REGULARLY. It is not
always necessary to use the
same amount of space in each
newspaper.
An occasional try-out adver-
tisement is seldom satisfactory.
The advertiser, in measuring
his results, must figure what
/ percentage of his gross business
it is costing him for his adver-
tising. If he is a steady adver-
tiser in newspapers, all of them
together will yield him a salts
factory return.
Failure from PERSISTENCE
is not recorded anywhere that I

The tendency of home writer's
sometimes is to minimize the value of
a player after he has Joined another
team. In discussing the trade by
which Bert King left Omaha for To-
peka, we desire to avoid that fault.
There is no denying Kings ability as
a fielder and his record as a hitter,
though of late he had let down at the
bat Few better outfielderS ever play
ed in the Western league. So that it
was not because of his fielding that
Pa was willing, if not anxious, to dis
pose of King. Nor was 1t his batting,
for it is quite probable that his slump
is only temporary. Kings chief weak
ness as a player was running bases
and it was serious weakness. Fleet
Of foot though he2was, he was never
safe on the bases Yet even this did
not primarily actuate Pa. King is a
hard man to handle. He is disposed
to wrangle and nag other players, thus
fomenting strife, and then he gener-
ally holds out at the opening of a sea-
son on his contract. We rather be-
lieve that if Pa Rourke were a man
to tell his business to others, he would
admit that this was what influenced
King deal. Tomason, who supplants
King in center, is a splendid fielder, a
better base runner than King, a good
hitter and on the whole. we believe,
more valuable man. OuFDlns WHO
was thrown in for Cook. had proved
about worthless to Omaha. He may
come back for Topeka. We cannot
pass judgment on Cook. But, taking
the deal as a whole, we think Omaha
has profited very clearly
Old John Gonding has managed to
whip his tail-enders, Rock Island,
around the point of winning a game
or two from some of the Three-I lead
ers. Watch Johns smoke.
We haven't quite got used to the

1t was a great day when Omaha
landed Arborgast.
Lincoln News: Buff Ehman was
more than pleased to get away from
Denver and sign up with the Ante
Hopes. Ehman had won his last three
games for the Grizzlies. two of his
victories being achieved on the GriZ-
lilies recent road trip, despite which
fact he was sent home by Manager
I Hendricks before the tour was com
pleted. This ranked with Ehman
and he was glad to say farewell to the
| Bears. Ehman was to have pitched
/ in one of yesterdays game, but was
| excused from service because he asked
to pitch one of the Fourth of July
battles in Denver. The big fellow is
more than anxious to give his former
pals a beating. Last year the Denver
management released Tub Hammond
| in mid-season and the portly pitcher
took particular delight in drubbing
| the Grizzlies out of several games be-
fore the termination of the campaign.

tory should repeat in the case of En-
man.
