Death of Harriet L. Johnson.

Mrs. Harriet L. Call Johnson dice
last night at the home Of Mr.. anc
Mrs. Vance M. johnson on Mason
hill, with whom she had come to visi,
during the winter from her home in
Butler, Mo. Her death was due to
heart troubles with which she had
suffered during the last several years
her conditions having become so
critical two years ago that her son
was summoned from this city to her
bedside. Last fall her physicians
advised her that she could not with
stand the rigors of another winter in
Missouri and it was with the hope
that Arizona climatic conditions
would restore her health that she
came to the home of her son in this
city in the early winter. She sus-
tanned some relief and until recently
it was thought possible that she
would continue making gain in health.
Last week, however, her condition
changed for the worse and her de-
cline became steady, ending in death.
The deceased was a woman of
strong character and during her life
had much experience in the up
building of the west. She was
born in Fabins, New York, July Is,
1889. In 1855 she was welded there
to VIM. Hanford. One son survives
this union, Willis E. Hanford of APP
pleton, N. Y. The husband died in
1864, victim of Libby prison, where
he was held as Federal prisoner
after service through the war to that
year. In 1867 she was married to
John @. johnson. They came west,
settling in Michigan and later living
in Wisconsin, from where they went
to Missouri'in 1875 settling in New
ton county, then just being reclaimed.
Here they made their home and
reared their family, attaining much
prominence and esteem in the COM
nunity. Besides the son in this city,
Vance M. johnson, county supervis-
or, Vernon L. johnson. his brother,
survives her in Butler.
Mrs. johnson had expected to re-
urn to Butler in May During her
'isit here, which began in November,
The had been about quite little and
lad formed number of friendships.
70 those who had met her she made
ppeal by her kindly manner and
heir sympathy goes out to the be-
eaved family The funeral of Mrs.
ohnson will occur Sunday after
Don, Rev. Brewster conducting
he services at 2 o'clock and the bod y
will be inferred in Evergreen ceme- .

GAMES AT EMMETT SUNDAY.
jackson and Pottawatomie Counties
VIII PLAY a DoubIeheader Bill.

Emmett, Kan, Sept. 16.-Next Sun
days doubleheader between Jackson
and Pottawatomie counties will be the
most holly contested series of the in
tercounty baseball tournament. Jack
son is coming with the strongest team
they ever turned out accompanied by
$50 rooters.
Last year Pottawatonie won both
games from Jackson by score of to 0
and 5 to 1 and having won double
victory from Shawnee last Sunday it
would appear that Jackson will have
to play high class ball in order to
win.
The best players from four of the
fastest teams in the state will be in
the Jackson county lineup. There
will be six from Circleville, two from
Soldier, three from Holton and four
from Mayetta and among them will be
several big league Indian players.
Puckee, Mzhickteno and Big Eagle
who has been on the pitching staff of
the Carlisle Indian travelling team for
the past two years, are in the lineup.
These games will be close and
judging from the secrecy which the
local management IS maintaining
Pottawatome evidently has something
big on the slab for Sunday.

SOAP IN EDUCATION.
A Greater Necessity Tnan Books, Says
President Butcher.

Emporia, Kan, Sept. 16.-"Soap is
a greater necessity in education than
books" said President Thos. w.
Butcher of the Emporia normal, in an
address here before eleven hundred
students. ''Some countries are noted
for what they drink, others for what
they eat, but America is conspicuous
for the amount of soap that she uses.
Let us keep alive the tradition.
You as future teachers will need
social as well as individual attain
ments. The banker or the merchant
need not attend closely to the cut of
his coat or the color of his tie, but
the teacher is watched in these re-
spects. have known poorly chosen
necktie to lose superintendent his
position.
Education is being able always to
find something to do. But it is more
than that. 1t is being able to do it
with ease and grace. 1t is the culture
attained by soap and grooming. We
need more soap in education

HugotOn Faces Necessity of Floating
New Bonds to Meet Old.

Hugoton, Kan, Sept. 16.-Hugoton
is facing the necessity of paying an
old bond debt, which brought the town
few benefits. Back somewhere in the
SOS, the town was bonded for $10,-
900. Later the town slumped and the
value of the bonds slumped with the
town. But some years ago things be-
gan to pick up at Hugoton and when
the town had become again prosper
Gus the holders of the old bonds re-
minded the city authorities of the old
obligation which dated back into the
SOS. The matter was taken to court
and the bond holders were given
Judgment against the city for the
face value of the bonds.
Now an effort will be made to
fund this Indebtedness, converting il
into new bonds, which can be paid by
Hugoton in installments. Attorney
Frank A. Mccoy went to make ar
engagements in Kansas City for taking
care of the Indebtedness.

WAS FINE WEEK
Good Weather Improved Crop
Conditions in State.
Government Report Shows
Good Prospect in Wheat Belt.

Following is a summary of weather
and crop conditions in Kansas and in
the wheat and corn region for the
week ending September IA, issued by
the weather. bureau section center at
Topeka:
Nearly all of Kansas enjoyed ideal
weather for maturing corn and catch
ing up with delayed farm work this
week. In most parts it was the warm
est week of the season. There was
no rain to interfere with farm work
except in the southeast quarter of the
state and the Kaw valley and drying
winds, with plenty of sunshine, were
general the last three days.
Corn made exceptionally fine growth
and the warm weather has begun to
mature it nicely, but it is very I'M
even in ripening. In the southern par
of the state from half to three-fourths
has reached the point where it is safe
from frost now; in the northern part
not more than 20 per cent is safe. Cen
orally, the bulk of the states crop will
be safe by September rs or October L,
which is from ten days to two weeks
earlier than the average date of the
first killing frost in autumn in Kan
saS. There is considerable late planted
corn, especially in the northern por-
ton, that will not be matured until
about October 10 or Is.
The sorghums (kafir, feterita and
nilo) are making fine growth, but
will not be past danger from frost I'M
til October 1 in the southern counties
and two weeks later in the northern.
ThreShing wheat and oats went for
ward almost without interruption this
week, but in the western counties mora
than half remains to be done. The
yield of wheat continues poor. Oats
are more encouraging.
Flowing went forward all week but
the ground was too hard to pillow we'll
in the southwestern, central and
northeastern counties and too wet in
the southeastern. No wheat has been
counties, where some early seeded and
volunteer wheat is up.
An extra heavy crop of prairie hay
is being secured in fine shape. In
many places pastures have grown SO
they are being cut for hay.
The third crop of alfalfa is about
made and the fourth is ready in many
places.
Picking fall apples is becoming gen
eral.
Generally warm weather and much
sunshine during the week in the prin-
cipal corn growing states was very
rapid progress except in the more
northern portions where it was too
cool and wet
In the spring wheat belt threshing
was generally interrupted by rain the
latter part of the week. In the winter
wheat belt, except in a few restricted
areas the soil is in excellent condition
and preparing the ground for seeding
is progressing rapidly Only a Ntle
wheat has been Sown yet.
Pastures, ranges, truck and stock
continue in good condition and fall
feed is abundant
