WILL PLAY SANTA RIGHT.

The Eagles Lodge of this city
has made elaborate preparations
to play Santa Claus to the poor
people of the city, and especially
to the children. At their meet
ing last Monday night it was vot-
ed to take 5000 from the funds OF
the lodge to be used in making a
Merry Christmas for the poor of
the community, and a committee
consisting of L. C. Breeden, Watt
O'Connell and John E. CosS, was
appointed to have charge of the
work of distribution. In addi-
ton to all this, they have leased
the Echo Theatre for Christmas
afternoon and the children of the
town and community are invited
to attend at their expense, and the
chances are that the kiddieS will
pack the house to its limit. Char
ity to all, and especially to those
who are down and out" is one
of the main principles of the
Eagles lodge, and the Great Bend
organization have always done
a very large share of the work of
this kind in this CITY.

OVER THE MILLION MARK.
Deposits of The First National
Bank Now $1,062,358.S9.

Elsewhere in the paper will be
found a statement of the condi-
tion of the First National Bank,
and it is certainly a statement of
which not only;the officials of the
bank, but every person in the en-
tire community can we'll be proud.
The deposits of the bank at the
present time are $1,O62,358.89, the
largest amount which was ever
on deposit in one bank not only in
this city but in any city
OF the size of Great Bend
in the state. 1t speaks eloquently
for the high esteem in which the
officials of the bank are held by
the people of the community, and
it likewise speaks most eloquent
ly for the community. Taken al
together, there are over two mil
lion dollars on deposit in the
three banks of the city, a showing
decidedly to the credit of not on
ly the banks, but of the people of
the community, for it speaks well
for the progress and the prosper
lty of this part of the state.

HAD A GOOD SNOW.

Kansas is going to have a white
Christmas, the weather man hav-
ing very kindly sent a good snow
this way Sunday morning. Sat-
urday night the skies were clear
snow began to fall and by about
8 o'clock there was about five
inches on the level. The fall was
not accompanied by wind, as is
so often the case, and there are
no drifts, but the snow, which was
very wet and heavy, is lying on
the fields in fine shape and is af-
fording a good warm blanket for
the wheat crop. 1t was just the
thing that was needed and will
do a world of good.

FINED $500 AND COSTS
Shepherd Found Guilty on Charge
of Drunkenness and Disor-
derly Conduct.

The Tom Shepherd case, which
was pending in the justice court
almost all of last week, ended
last Friday afternoon when the
defendant was found guilty and
was assessed a fine of $25 and the
costs in the case. Shepherd was
first arrested on the charge OF
using his rooms for immoral pur-
poses but this charge was later
changed to drunkenness and dis
orderly conduct. There were a
number of witnesses in the case
and the trial occupied the most
of three days. A boy about eigh.
teen years of age and two girls
one about fifteen and the other
about eighteen, were also arrest.
ed in Shepherds room at the same
time of his arrest but the case
against the others was dropped.

any good and believed that it was
working a hardship on his busi-
ness, but if the other people want
it ne was for the measure.
Oscar Clink said the White
Way would save him money in
the long run, but that he did not
favor this way of raising the
money and did not believe that the
measure treated all of the busi-
ness interests fairly, but that if
the ordinance was passed in mod
flied form he would pay his share
without complaint.
John Cook had a number of OBJ
jectiOnS, but the truth of the mat
ter was that John simply wanted
to start an argument, and, by the
way, he got it before he got
through. John wanted light on
the subject principally and this
also was forthcoming. He did
not believe that the people would
favor the measure until they knew
just when the lights were going
to be put in and also what the
light company was going to. get
out of the deal. Also he did not
favor anyone paying for some
thing which did them no good.
G. w. Moore wanted the White
Way and said that the city COM
miSSiOnerS could double the tax
they had assessed against him if
they would guarantee him pro-
lection in his business. He stated
that practically every housewife
in the town was his competitor,
and that not being enough, some
of the merchants even went so
far as to ship in bread from other
towns. He is engaged in the bak-
cry and confectionery business,
and does not believe that he
should pay a tax without the mer-
chant who ships in bread in COM
petition with him paying a tax
on this line the same as he will
have to do.
DR.. Gardner didn't believe an
occupation tax was the square
thing. incidentally he suggested
that the fellows who have retired
and are now taking things easy
and have plenty of time to loaf
around and enjoy these things
should pay their share.
Charles Carroll appeared as at
torney for some of the remonstra-
tors and asked why the people had
not been informed as to what the
city was going to pay the light
company for the current, also
whether or not the business
houses would have to pay for the
light poles, and intimated that the

MADE us FEEL RICH.

1t isn't every print shop in the
country that can put out a S24,-
900 job while you wait, but that
is what the Democrat office did
one day the first of this week.
The big snow of Sunday morning
convinced the First National
Bank that they were going to have
to turn loose of a whole lot of
money during the next few days
which would 90 towards buying
Christmas presents, for they knew
that the snow would make every
one feel so good that they would
want to get rid of some of their
surplus wealth, so a bunch of
bank notes, in tens and twentieS,
$4,000 worth in all, were sent
to this shop to be cut and trim
med so that they could be put in
circulation. The notes come four
to. a sheet, and it a pretty slow
job to cut up bunch of that size
with a pair of scissors, and the
big paper cutter in the shop came
in handy for the purpose.
To have that much money lay
ing around the shop, even for only
a few minutes, is enough to make
the average printer feel mighty
rich, which is almost equivalent
to being rich.

The suit is a friendly one arrang-
ed between the district attorney
the Mine Operators association. An
information was filed against W. IL.
Blackburn, superintendent of the To
nopah Mining company, who IS
charged with employing Gusti Gran
att and Charles Johnson contrary 10
the provisions of the law. The case
was called in the court OF Justice
Dunseath, when Hugh II. Brown APP
peared for the Tonopah Mining COM
pany.
When Mr.. Blackburn was arraign-
ed the case was continued and n
for $500 signed by John g. kirehen
and Fred Bradshaw. The Tonopah
company will raise the point that the
law is unconstitutional.
The company will probably sue out
a writ of habeas corpus, on which
the suit will be transferred to the

course is not adopted the defendant
will appeal directly to the United
