has sent the following to the Sacra-

ant, Miss Hope Burdic, there are six

the Ashland people that during Mr..
Browning's sickness last fall his pull
pit was supplied by Mr.. Wilikson, the
pastor of the great Naomi Avenue
Christian church in Los Angeles. Mr..
Wilkison recently preached two SER
mons in story form that have aroused
much interest all over our country.
Mr.. Browning will give them to his
audiences next Sunday morning and

wish to hear both, as either is in
complete without the other. The

Celebrated Wedding Anniversary.

One OF the jolliest social events of
the season took place at Mr.. and Mrs.
Il. n. Smiths residence at 124 Nor
ton street last Monday night, 1t being
the twenty-second anniversary of
their wedding. Their friends to the
number OF 23 decided to give Mrs.
Smith n surprise. Mr.. Smith having
been let into the plot. The party met
at II. j. Boyd's and at 1880 took the
residence of the Smiths by storm. To
say Mrs. Smith was surprised as well
as delighted went without ques-
ton. As soon as they could all get
settled down to business the games
that were played 25 and 80 years ago
once more were brought to the front,
such as Bring Home What You Bor-

thrown after that and every player
fought his hardest till time was final

The Ashland boys were greatly
handicapped by very slippery floor
but put up the game of their lives
and were finally rewarded for their
efforts. The boys expect to have
game with the Siskiyou county lads
here some time in the near future
and it promises to be some fast game.
The boys game was preceded by
a game played between the two high
schools girl teas which resulted in
favor of Yreka by the score of 19 to
). The local girls were outclassed,
but they also were unused to the
slippery floor conditions and expect
to make better showing on the re-
turn game here. For Ashland One
ita Barnard, Alene Bomar and Eu-
nice Grubb played a good game and
for the Siskiyous Albee, Jensen and
Hodson proved stars.
A noticeable fact about both
games was the clean playing and
scarcity of fouls. What fouling did
occur was wholly unintentional on
both sides and this made the game
much more interesting. The line

Commissioner Newland Says Cit!
Light Trouble L. Over.

Ais well at the city light plant,
Second and Adams street. according
to F. M. Newland. city light and wat
err commissioner. Owing to the fact
that the new belt recently purchased
to connect the engine and the big dy-
namos has worn long enough to be
softened, no trouble is being exper-
fenced with the street lights.
When the belt was first placed on
tho machinery 1t was hard and would
slip on the dynamos causing the lights
to flicker. The belt is more than a
half inch in thickness and contains the
hides of IS steers.
Another new policy recently has
been inaugurated at the plant. Every
day q half dozen or more street lights
are brought to the plant and tested
for a number of hours. New lights
are substituted while these are being
tested. This, according to Mr.. New
land. il eliminating much of the trou-
BILE caused by the lights growing de-

This is the substance OF a warning
issued today by l.. G. Treleaven, re-
ceiver Of the local gas company, to
gas consumers Of Topeka.
THE gas prospects for this winter APP
near to me no better than last winter,
said Mr.. Treleaven. 1T is doubtful II
the supply is as good as last year. l
would advise every user Of gas IN the
city to lay in a supply OF coal-not 1or
temporary usage but for all winter"
Topeka experienced a mild winter
last year and the gas supply was short.
Should the winter this year be colder
the supply will, undoubtedly be less
ard do not anticipate mild winter.
In a statement recently the receivers
Of the Kansas Natural Gas company
said that it was their belief that Kan
sas would receive about the same
amount of gas as last year. On account
Of the delay in getting possession OF the
property few or no improvements coA
be made for this year.
The wells used last year by the nam
sas Gas company are reported to nave
decreased in volume 40 to 5O per cent.
However it is expected that the new
wells that are being connected Win tne
mains in the Usage fields Will iurnlsh
enough gas 20 make up Tor the ex-
haustion of the old wells. The Kansas
gas company reports that 1t VIII pc

WARM and MOIST
Was Also q Month
of Sunshine.
The Rainfall Was Three Inches
Above Normal.

There has been an unusual amount of
warm moist weather and sunshine at
Topeka this month according to the
summary Of the weather conditions
that will be issued from the local office
of the United States weather bureau
Thursday. It was probably the most
favorable September for growing crops
on record.
The summary reads:
1t was the sith warmest and fifth
wettiest September in % years and had
more sunshine than any other Septem-
bers but one in the II years that an
automatic record of sunshine has been
kept at Topeka.
The average temperature Of the
month was II degrees which is de-
gress above normal and makes this the
seventh consecutive month with the
Topeka. In the past year and a half's
time only two months have averaged
below normal at this place.
The highest temperature Of the month
was 50 degrees on the 9Th the lowest At
degrees on the 23rd. Higher tempera-
red in previous Septembers and there
have been only two that have passed
without a lower temperature on some
day than the lowest Of this month.
Light frosts which did no damage,
occurred in the most exposed places in
and near the city on September %, "A,
g. rs, % and 80.
The rainfall totalled 6.61 inches which
is 3.05 inches above normal and Is with
one exception the greatest amount of
rain that has fallen at Topeka during
any month since October, 1872 1t was
well distributed through the month and
sufficient to soak the upper surface of
ground thoroughly. but judging by the
comparatively small run OF in creeks
and rivers the subsoil is still dry. The
excess in rain this month brings the
total precipitation since the first of the
year 1892 inches Of the normal
There were no severe storms during
the month. but 1t average the second
windiest September in the II years that
record Of wind velocity has been kept
| at Topeka. Thirteen days Of the month
were clear, II were partly cloudy and
cloudy. Measurable rain fell on IL days.
