the farm of the late Augustus Pack
ard, near town, despite the efforts of
the county sheriff, an administrator
of the estate and members of the
family to locate it.
Interest in the hidden treasure has
spread through the country and the
failure of a searching party to find
the money only Increased the belief
that it is somewhere in the 80 acres
belonging to c. E. Packard, a son of
the original owner.
Augustus Packard was eccentric. A
homeSteader of the sos, he lived
quiet retired life. The loss of sew
eral hundred dollars in a deal with a
bank caused him to distrust all bank
ers and he considered the ground
near his home as the best place in
which to keep his money.
He married twice. Three children
by his first wife and four by the Sec

search for the hidden $4,000.
The first attempt to locate the
treasure was a failure. Led by VIM.

world, according to the royalty in
several countries of Europe, and from
the amount of flour that is being
shipped abroad by the ship load this
fall the several royal families are pre-
pairing to live fat this winter. Re
ports from several points where there
are large mills show that the foreign
shipments this year are larger than
usual, and a letter received by a Sa-
lima mill a short time ago would in
dictate that the kings, queens and 9TH
er titled individuals will get their
share of the fine bread, rolls and hot
biscuits.
Liverpool, London, Glasgow, Am
sterdam and other large cities are or
dering flour from the Kansas wheat
belt in large quantities. This letter
had reference directly to the royal
family of England, and the chef of
the kings kitchen wrote a letter to
the dealer in London expressing the
kings delight.

Freak Steps.
Wichita, Kan, Oct. 29.-Pupils of
the Wichita high school are petition
ing the board of education to allow
dancing at class parties given in the
high school building. When the
faculty ruled that school parties
should be held at the school building

was ruled out because the board fear
ed that taxpayers would object.
Glass parties without dances are
tame affairs, argue the pupils, they
appealed to the student council, which
in turn has asked Principal 1. NJ. AL

put on dances. They assure the board
that there will be no bunny hugging''
or Raging, but just common, plain,
ordinary dancing.

GEN. FREMONT BORN
 1OO YEARS AGO

In no year of American history have there been offered such abundant opportunities for centenary celebra- tions as the year pow begun. Durin 2 the ensuing 12 months there will oc- cur the centennial anniversary of the births of such notable figures in American history as Stephen A Douglas, the Democratic candidate for President against Lincoln; Ad- celebrated naval commanders in. the civil war; Henry Ward Beecher, the famous pulpit orator; Allen G. Thur man, Ohio senator and one of the noted leaders of the Democratic par ty; General John Sedwick, one of the ablest and bravest officers of the army of the Potomac; Zachariah Chandler, United States senator and secretary of the interior, and Stephen R. Mallory, who is best remembered confederate states.
 Of the men named in the forego- ing list, however, there is none whose career was half so picturesque as that of John c. Fremont, who was born one hundred years ago today in Savannah, Ga. Soldier, exlporer, civil engineer, governor of California and Arizona and first candidate of the Republican party for president, Gen. eral Fremont for many years was a romantic figure in the public eye. He was governor of Arizona from 1878 to 1881.

 Since that Santa Fe convention, the Ocean to Ocean association, or the fei. lows at it's head, seem to feel that we are attempting to disintegrate and disband their organization. That be- ing the case, we decided that tenta- lively, until something could be done by our organization as aw hole, We here at headquarters, would be consis- tent in sticking to the Old Trails idea.
 Approve the Fl Paso Route.
 Hence we dug into all the old his torical works we were able to find and discovered that Doniphan went down the Rio Grande n his campaign against Mexico and that Kearney, piloted by Kit Carson, went down the Rio Grande nearly to Fl Paso and from thence westward to the Pacific, through Tucson.
 This looked consistent with our Old Trails project and we got out map along those lines (tentative only as we do not feel that we have authority to designate) believing that this route complies at least with one of the re- quirements of our constitution for our road west of Santa Fe, i. e. "the most historical.
 The development of sentiment for this project has been so fast that we feel that the time is now ripe for con- gressional action and, therefore, we re- gently have prepared a bill for this highway from ocean to ocean which has been introduced, a copy of which will be sent you as soon as it is print ad

 Our organizer, MT Kirker, in is your community and we bespeak for him liberal support from your city for this project as it now stands.
 Remembering that we are not con- hitting our organization to this road west of Santa Fe, for we have not the authority to do that.
 Our constitution is indefinite con cerning the road west of Santa Fe and this is merely our opinion at head quarters that your road so far as We know comes nearest complying with the requirements of that constitution as to the road from Santa Fe, to the Pacific.
 Unless the states of Arizona and New Mexico take some action adverse to the road as above outlined, we shall undoubtedly adhere to this line. With this explanation of our stand, are you for us?
