BUILDING STEAM AIRsH1ps.
Men Plan Only Steam
Flyer in the World.

Hutchinson, Kan, Sept. 1.-THE
only steam propelled monoplane IN
the world is being built at the fair
grounds.
If the machine is the success which
it's builders expect it to be. the Will
son brothers of Hutchinson may be-
come as famous as the Wright broth
ers of Dayton, Ohio.
For it is John Wilson and his broth
ers, Ernest, Howard and Dewey, who
are building the long. graceful air
craft in a big tent near the grand
stand of the race track. John is the
oldest of the boys. His age is; "a.
Ernest is %, Howard is 20 and Dewey
is IS.
The engine, for which a patent has
been applied, works something like
the flash system used by the old White
steamer automobile The boiler is a
system of small coiled pipes, so heated
with a blue oil flame that steam is
developed almost instantly. This
steam is superheated, so that very lit
tie water, and very little oil, will be
used to develop the power.

SHAFT FOR INDIAN
Marker VIII Be Placed Over
William Walkers Grave.
First Provisional Governor Was
of Wyandotte Tribe.

Kansas City, Kan, Sept. 11.-De-
scendants of the Wyandotte and Della
ware Indians will take part in cere-
monies for the placing of a marker
on the grave of William Walker, the
first provisional governor of the ter
ritory which is now Kansas and Ne
braska. Walker is buried in Oak
Grove cemetery here. The ceremonies
which will be attended by Governor
Capper and to which the governor of
Nebraska has been invited will take
place September 20.
Mayor c. w. Green of Kansas City.
Kan, has appointed the following
committee to arrange the ceremonies:
en-, B. r. Lane, Samuel Beatty. o. K.
Service, Mark Armstrong, Mrs. J. A.
Hale, r. L. McAlphine, Frank Bet
ton, w. w. Zane, Miss Ida B. Con-
ley, John McAlpine, John Caskey and
]. L. Smalley. Not all of these are
descendants of Indians, however.
Walker was a quarter blood Wyan-
dotte. He was born March 5, 1900
in Wayne county. Mich. His father
was captured when a child by the
Delawares in a raid in Rockridge
county, Va, about 1870. He was such
starved little fellow that the Della
wares sold him to Adam Brown. chief
/ of the Wyandottes, near Detroit.
| Walkers father married the half
breed daughter of an Irish trader.
When Walker grew up he was
elected chief of the Wyandottes and
when they settled in Kansas became
! one of the leading citizens there. He
was well educated. On September 2,
! 1854, a convention was held at Wyan-
dotte at which provisional govern
ment was formed for the territory.
William Walker wa5 appointed pro-
visional governor and it was largely
through his efforts that the treaty
was projected and successfully con-
summated on January 81, 1855, by
which the Wyand ottes became full
citizens of the United States. Walker
died in 1874. An enlargement from
the only photograph of Walker in
existence that is authentic is in the
possession of the Kansas State His
torical society.
The monument which is to be
placed on his grave has been furnish
ed by the Society of the Daughters
of Founders and Patriots of America

a good working basis. He made
many friends, won many conversions
and left his parish after many years OF
hard work, for another CHURCH. 1t
was during the pastorate of Rev.
Nicholson that this church was affili-
ated with the Presbyterian church.
There was sister church
which was organized in 1874
and located at Second and Jack
son streets, but was subsequently To-
Gated in North Topeka. That church,
owing TO some financial embarrass-
ment, was disbanded in 1904 and the
members came over to the Calvary
church and joined.

CHOLERA UNDER CONTROL.
Association Organized in
Several Kansas Counties.

Manhattan, Kan, Sept. 11.-Many
farm bureaus in the state report sue
cessful control of hog cholera. In
Harvey Jewell, Linn and Miami coun-
ties the farmers report Immediately to
the county agent any outbreak of
cholera. The farmers where the out
breaks occur, Immediately get into
touch also with local veterinarians
who vaccinate the infected herds and
assist in the cleanup work necessary.
Several outbreaks in these counties
have been stopped successfully this
fall with practically no loss to the
owners of the infected herds.
In Linn county, a district several
miles long has been organized for two
years for this prevention work. and
veterinarians from the agricultural
college have vaccinated the hogs in
the district whenever necessary. Since
the district was organized, no serious
outbreaks of cholera have occurred in
the district.
In Cowley county, a Hog Cholera
Eradication association has been or
ganized through the farm bureau and
the county agent in cooperation with

ricultural college and the state live

Babies Prettier

Even in the midst of wal
France finds time to rejoice ovel
the fact that its babies born dur
ing the. past six months are
healthier and prettier than eveI
before. 1t is a source of much
pride to the republic.
But pretty babies Is becoming
an old story in America, and no
longer occasions more than pass

OF all the civilized people of
the earth, there are no healthier
babies born than those Of the
United States.
Of all the peoples of the world,
there are none so pretty as our
American babies.
And of all the pretty babies ia
existence, there are none to COM
pare with the babies of our own

Our babies are the acme of per.
fection and beauty.

A Biz PIum--Grab 1t.

There's a juicy commerce al
plum right within our reach.
Prior to the war Russia i'm
ported nearly all of her manu-
factured articles from Germany,
enormous quantities of them.
Now Russia seeks to establish
close trade relations with the
United States.
She wants to buy her hundreds
of millions of dollars worth of
supplies from us, and she has
the gold with which to pay.
Great possibilities for the fu.
ture are opened up to the manu-
facturers of this country, if they
will but grasp them.
1t will require the adjusting of
financial conditions to harmonic
with those existing in Russia in
the matter of credits, which are
quite at variance with our Amer
ican methods.
But what Germany has been
able to do, we can do, if we try.
1t is a simple matter for our
great manufacturing interests to
send representatives to Russia
and pave the way for this tre-
mendous volume of business.
1t is too big a plum to be cast
aside, and it is to be hoped man.
ufacturing and financial men of
affairs will be equal to the emer.
gency.

The Man Who
AdVertiSeS,

There are two classes of mer.
chants, those who advertise, and
those who do not.
The man who advertises has
the best of the deal.
He keeps himself before the
public, he keeps his wares before
the public, and he keeps their
quality and price uppermost in
the public mind.
People talk about the man
who advertises, because they
know he has something worth
advertising, or he wouldn't ad-
vertise.
Cobwebs never grow in the
store of the man who advertises,
because people buy his goods be-
cause he does advertise.
People read the advertisements
they look for them and expect to
find them, and often end in for
getting the man who does not
advertise.
Advertising pays.
Get the habit, and grow with
YOUR ads,

OUR ODD AMERICAN WAY.

Mr.. Ford on his way with his peace

ridiculous and the watchfulness which

But Mr.. Ford is a great man only in
what he has accomplished at his fac
tory. Mr.. Ford in his manufacturing
business has been an expression CT the
best progress Of his age. He has as
sisted TO make one man as effective
facility of communication. He has
made a vehicle that not only accom-
plishes its purpose but that all can
buy. He has made much money-and
having done that he is notable as one
who shares profits with those who do
his work, but he has not yet risen 90

NIT TO real partnership those who have
helped TO make his profits for him. The
Ford factory is still all Ford He is
willing to spend his money now that
he has so much OF it but he has not yet

genius and foresight which has been
his in the making of his fortune. He
is yet of the class of newly rich who

lying between our middle plains and

east OF the Mississippi river were
shaded lightly to show business de-
