STILL HOLDS The BALL
AFTER HALF CENTURY
Americas Has Oldest Rubber
In Existence

Americas fans who are accustomed
to see not a few balls lost during the
progress of a game will marvel at the
ability of a man to hold BALI a
half century without losing it once all
that time. Mr.. John W. Walters is
in possession of a petriied rubber ball,
which was purchased by his brother,
Richard Walters, in 1855, and which
has been preserved by Mrs. G. w.
Fuller of Americas, sister of Mr..
Walters. The ball has a cracked pla ,e
in it, but otherwise is in good shape
and is very heavy. Small particles of
the ball can be broken off with a knife
only after some effort. The ball was
one used by Richard Walters of Amer
icus when a school boy and was the
first that he had ever seen,

PICKERS In DEMAND AS
COTTON IS OPENING
Farmers Will Need LabOrerS
In Force Now

Americas cotton receipts will run
beyond the thousand bale mark this
week if the weather continues fair for
picking, and labor can be had. The
weeks receipts at all the towns IN
this part of the state are expected to
be unusually heavy. The fields are
whitening fast, and farmers are max
ing vigorous efforts to secure la
borers. It is believed that the Iabo~
question in the cotton fields is going
to be more serious one during the
next forty-iye days than it has been
III several years. The size Of the crop,
the Tapidity with which it is opening
and the competition in other lines for
coloyed labor will conspire to make
the question unusual. 1t is possible
that the scale of wages for field labor
Will soar again, as was the case three
years ago. As rule, farmers seem
Ito be willing to sell at the prevailing
scale Of prices.

WOMAN MAYOR WILL GUST
ENTIRE HUNNEWELL COUNCIL
Her Honor" is Out to Fight Council
to Einish.

sc q"
Huanewell, Kan, August THE
session Of the city council created
great excitement tonight, nearly every
man and woman in town being pres
ent to hea@ the wordy war expected
to take place between Mayoress Will
son and the warning councilmen. All
members of the council were present,
but it was evident from hints dropped
before the council convened that there
would be no possible show to transact
any business in compliance with the
wishes of the mayoress.
Mrs. Wilson offered three appoint
ments for approval, that of city clerk,
Mrs. Hilton; treasurer, E. A. Clark,
ana street commissioner, Geo. A. Boy
er. The council steadily refused TO
confirm the appointments, whereup0n
Mrs. Wilson, the mayoress, refused to
sign the bunch of warrants that laid
on the table from which it was pro-
posed to liquidate many unpaid obli-
cations the city has contracted in the
last six months.
All expression from members of the
council at this meeting gave evidence
! that they We're in real earnest, and
propose to fight the battle through on
the plans which seemed to be outlin-
ed, that of stubbornly refusing to ac-
quiesce in any proposition advocated

had refused to confirm the appoint
ments of the clerk, treasurer and
street commissioners, Mrs. Wilson CT

MAGAZINE REVIEW
The By-Products Of a Missionary.

In the December American Magazine,
Ray Stannard Baker writes the first Of
a series of articles on Wonderful
Ilawaii-A World Experiment Station"
An interesting part Of the article has to-
do with the money that the missionaries
have made in the islands. Following is
an extract:
zone of the early and earnest mis-
sionaries was DIR. Bond of Kohala in
the island of Hawaii A generation or
more ago he received legacy of 81
000-and Immediately bought large
tract of land of the Hawaiiaus A few
years later, when the sugar industry
began TO spread, corporation bought
DR.. Bonds land, giving him paid.up
stock in payment. The years went on.
Before Dr. Bond died he had received as
result of his investment of 81 900 in
land, between S250,000 and 100000 di.
vidends. OF course he never turned q
hand in earning any of this money,
although when it began TO come in in
such amounts he distributed much Of
it In various good causes. He paid back
to the American board of missions every
cent paid him in salary and many thous-
ands OF dollars besides, and he CON
tinued his missionary work as long as
he was able. He also contributed lib
orally to educate the disappearing Ha-
waiians, especially to the Kobala girls
school, Of which he was trustee. And
yet, when he died, his estate was worth
over 100000 OF some seventy-fve times
as much money as he invested orig
inally.
"But the missionary families are by
no means the only residents who have
profted by keeping their hands on the
land. Other white men, early traders
and German and English settlers, have
also used their opportunities to good adj
vantage and finally many Hawaiians,
either owing to chance, or to good adj
vice, or to an unusual streak of native
caution, have refused to part with their
lands and as result where these lands
happened to be valuable, they are now
living in modest idleness on the rent

any packages that are going through the

seals may be used on the back of a

Everyone is urged to use them literally

Irate Mother.

Mothers very good to father,
She's as gentle as can be,
She never loses patience
And shes seldom cross with me.
To know her is to love her;
But it almost chills our blood
When, if she were Mrs Kipling.
She tells what she'd do to Rud.
Mild and gentle are her manners,
Sweet and tender are her ways,
And her hand to us in anger
She was never known to raise
But dreadful thing has happened
And her temper's out of check,
For if she were Mrs. Kipling
She declares she'd break his neck.
Now TO look at gentle mother
You would never guess that she
Over real wrong or fancied
Harbored animosity.
These, in all her sweet existence
Are the first harsh words she's said
But, if she were Mrs Kipling.
She declares she'd bang his head.
It's "the female Of the species
That has filed her veins with gall,
That has changed to bitter hatred
Mothers love for one and all,
And at times she bangs the table
With most decisive thud,
As. if she were Mrs. Kipling,
She tells what she'd do to Rud.
