OF the Parker establishment; par

makes no attempt to explain why,
but he, more than anybody else, is
convinced Of it. When the office
first was opened in Leavenworth,
Miss Lillian SEEDLINGS, who Mr..
Parker brought with him from abb
1ene, and In whom he had unbound
ed confidence, was the chief stenog-
raph4r. Miss Mary Hassett, a Lea
venworth girl, was engaged as Miss
Stebbings' assistant.
Before the business was more
than six months old In Leavenworth
Miss Stebbings notified her employ

married, It would be necessary for
him to secure somebody to take her
place. Miss Hassett was made CHIEF
and Miss Gertrude
Parker, Mr.. Parker's daughter en-
gagged as assistant.
Miss Parker had been ION the I

became Mrs. Allen, wife of one OF
the proprietors of the Workman & i

Miss Maude Casker to fill the va

short time.
While the C. c. Parker company
was in Abilene four fair stenogra-
