EMMETT PEOPLE CELEBRATE.
WiIlard's Boyhood Friends Celebrate
His Great Victory Monday Night.

Emmett, Kan, April 6.-Every one
in the surrounding country as well as
the village celebrated Jess Wizards
victory Monday night. Persons from
every walk of life represented in the
village took part in the celebration,
which eclipsed anything of its kind
ever attempted here.
Emmett and vicinity took the day Off
Monday. Work was stopped for ten
miles around, despite the backward
ness of the season, and the folks who
have known Jess Willard since he
learned to walk came in to receive the
fight bulletins by rounds. They had
faith in their hero and despite the
story of the beating he was taking as
told by the bulletins they bore up in
the hope that he would land a. hay
maker after a while.
Words can't describe what hap
pened in Emmett when the flash evil
lard Wins" came over the wire. En-,
met herself doesn't know. But En-
met folks know Jess is champion and
that's why the lid is off in a town that
doesn't do anything, not even take off
the lid, by halves.

The affair was the first of the sea

Topeka'S failure to take the big END
of the score was due largely to the fact
that JackSon's hOpefuls could not find

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it Is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the indamma ton can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be des-
troyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall g

Ret. Goddard
Writes Of
West

By Rev. L. A Goddard, Algona,
Iowa, formerly pastor of the Baraboo
Congregational church.
Monrovia, California, April 21:-
The train | came on, over the Santa
Fe, was run in eight sections. The day
previous, it ran five sections; and the
day before that, eight sections. Thus
people are coming into southern Cali
fornia by train loads.
We are some 500 miles south of San
Francisco and the exposition. Hence
these people are not seeking the expo
sition solely. Some Of them, of course,
are returning-a large number of them;
but they are attracted here, not by the
big show, but by something else. What
is it?
1t is not gold, for l suppose there Eis
no part of the country that is suffering
more from the dull times than south
ern California. There is no Klondyke
here at present.
California at Her Best.
The lure of California is it's beauty
and it's climate.
This is the most beautiful time of the
year. The season of rain is past. The
days of sunshine and flowers are at
hand The atmosphere is charged with
the odor of varied multitude of fra
grant flowers. One might fill a column
of this paper with only their names.
Everywhere you go, whichever way
you look, there is a riot of color, pro-
fusion Of fowers-hedges Of gerani-
iums, blocks long in thick bloom-a
mass of crimson; the beautiful wisteria,
in its different colors, hanging grace
fully from porch or trellis, roses of all
colors, and varieties in full bloom; pop
pies growing wild, like the daisy in
New England, or the golden-rod in the
middle west.
On my dresser now is a bouquet of
yellow peoples plucked in the fields by
a friend Beside it stands huge bunch
of Gala lilies, as perfect and as beauti-
full as have ever seen. They were
plucked last Sunday from the north side
of bungalow, in which friend lives,
and have been here all the week, filling
my room with their fragrance. I could
name a multitude of other flowers that
make fields, parks and yards gay and
beautiful; but there is much beside
flowers to see and describe. I wish I
could, before I drop the flowers, give
all my Baraboo friends a good, deep
breath of this scented air, charged with
the fragr ance of orange blossoms. It is
wonderfully sweet and bracing.

Paved Roads Everywhere

This is the paradise of the autoist,
Miles, yes hundreds of miles, of asphalt
pavement, threading the country and
orange groves and cities. There is no
snow, no mud to interfere with the use
of the auto twelve months in the year.
Even rain hardly ceases before the
drives are again filled with sight
seers. In any direction you can
find pavements, making it possible to
take new drive every day.
The houses are all built on the bunga-
low style. The buildings are largely
of the mission style of architecture.
One is impressed by the beautiful schoo
buildings and by public buildings
in general. Each city takes
pride in identifying its parks and
streets. This encourages the house
holder to do the same with his private
grounds, and in thia land where foliage
is so abundant, and flowers so easily
grown, beauty comes easily.
Two Vandals Mar La ndscape
There are two vandals, however,
that desecrate the landscape. One is
the rivers. The rivers run riot here.
The violent rains of the rainy season
sweep down their course, tearing away
embellishments and spreading out over
the fields and groves in disastrous
fashion. One would think the govern
ment or state would have long sine e
done something to tame these turbu-
lent streams. One is inclined to reflect
that it would have been wiser economy
to spend less on the roads and more on
the streams.

- - Dry Season is Coming

One would think, to hear the stories
of this land of sunshine and flowers,
that it was al ways ideal. You never
hear much of the other features. There
are some features not so pleasant.
| want to give a complete picture of
this land. For instance the rainy sea-
son closed before came. But March,
of which spent some "a days in Cali
fornia, was the most remarkable in her
history. There was only one rainy day
and few cloudy days But they had
much rain before came. Disagreeable
days, they tell me. And now the rain
over, and ere long, for lack of it, the
fields and hills will be brown. dry and
dusty. When one of these notorious
Santa Annas" comes up and covers
the land, woe betide man and nature.
These are sand storms that cover foil
age and flowers, penetrate the houses,
vex housewives and bring despair to
man and beast. Nature languishes for
drink-to have her face washed but
she must wait until the rainy season
which may be yet months away.
These are some Of the veXations of
this land of poetry. But it has many
many charms. The summer days, they
tell me, will be hot; but there comes,
about three o'clock in the afternoon, a
gentle breeze that soon lowers the tenn
perature and the evenings are delight
fully cool.

ever advocate again a segregated dis
trict. He would never want his con-
science bUrdened with the thought
that perhaps he had been the means
of the ruin of some life, either man,
or woman or child. Because one Of
the most serious things regarding
this awful evil is that the innocent
children many times are born with
one or two of the worst diseases
known to the race, so that the sins
of the father or mother. or both, are
visited upon tire innocent children,
and those who wish to inform them
selves will find that these diseases
sometime appear in the third or
fourth generation.
In answer to the first specification
made by "a Gee Bee" that because
the redight districts were closed men
were harming our innocent sisters,
we caused to be made an inVestiga-
ton in this county of the records Of
rape during a certain period when
the redilght district was open and
when it was closed and found that
there was more rape when the district
was open than when it was closed.
