obituary-B. F. Nelson

Benjamin F. Nelson was born in
Barker county, KY, December 10,
1910, where he grew to mature
years. He married Mrs. Margaret
Waters, Sept. 20, 1878. Soon after
this he came to Abilene, Kansas,
where he has since resided. He be-
came one OF Abilenes substantial
business men. In the run of years
that have followed he has drawn to
himself a host of friends as well as
competency in business. For many
years he was handicapped by par
tial blindness but showed the metal
Of which he was formed by proceed
ing as if all we're well.
Failing health caused him to lay
down his strenuous toll and for the
past five years he has been a great
sufferer. Through it all he never
lost heart, and continued his con-
quest against the foe who is clutch
ing for the heartstrings OF us all.
He fell at the foot of the fortress
around whose base millions Of his
fellowmen are mouldering back to
the dust, from whence they came.
1t is our fond hope that he was VIC
torious in his last conflict.
Comrade Nelson enlisted in the
service OF the U. s. army oct. g.,
1861, in Co. B. 10th Kentucky Vol.
Infantry, and was discharged there
from July 18th, 1865, having serv-
ed his country 4 years months and
% days. He died in his home in
Abilene, Kan, Nov. 8. 1916, aged
10 years, 10 months and 26 days.
He leaves his wife to know the loss
Of his departure. Therefore be il
resolved
That Abilene Post No. 60, Dept.
OF Kansas, Grand Army Of the Re
public. tender its heartiest sympathy
to the bereaved in her great sor-
row. and that a copy Of this obIt-
uary be spread on the minutes Of
our post.-Committee. F. S. All

FORMER ABILENE CITIZEN
DEAD IN ILLINOIS

This community was terribly
shocked Saturday morning to learn
of the sudden death of Jack Parks
which occurred at his home in
Peoria Friday night at about 1915
o'clock. Death was due to acute
neuralgia of the heart.
r. w. Parks was born in Wood
land township April 8, 1868. At the
time OF his death he was aged So
years, months and 25 days. His
early life was spent in this COM
munity and although much of his
time has been spent in Kansas and
other parts of this state, he always
called this his home. He was
member of the Modern Woodmen
lodge and of the Masonic order
Argus-Searchlight, Astoria, Ill.
Mr. Parks formerly resided in
Abilene and was well known here.

CELEBRATE
VICTORY WITH BONFIRE

The Democrats and other Wilson
adherents celebrated the election OF
president last night with big
bonfire and band concert. A rather
small crowd was out for the cele-
bration considering the great vic
tory and the amount of prediction
enthusiasm and optimism exhibited
by the Democrats. 1t was nice
quiet celebration and we were glad
to see our political opponents enjoy
themselves for once, and to judge
from their antics they did enjoy
themselves to the fullest extent of
their Democratic abilities. The band
played all the well known Mexican
anthems including villa Get Your
Gun" and the crowd made merry
dancing the "Wilson Wobble."
We repeat it was nice celebra-
ton and a most memorable occa
sion for the Democrats.

SEE POSSIBLE WAY OUT
OF PAPER SHORTAGE

AS the result OF studies which
have been made at the forest pro-
ducts laboratory at Washington on
methods of handling wood chips
suitable for paper pulp, it is an
nounced that Wisconsin paper
companies are now negotiating with
the railroads for shipment to their
factories of experimental train loads
of chips of western woods adapted
TO paper making.
Previous investigations by the
forest service have demonstrated
that good grades of paper can be
made from a number of western
woods. The experts now estimate
that some of these woods, when cut
into chips and dried and baled, can
be delivered to the mills in Wiscon-
sin at very small advance over
the cost of chips made from local
timber. If a favorable freight rate
can be obtained, they say. the great
quantity of pulpwood on the ma
tional forests should prove to be a
considerable factor in supplying
favorably located paper mills with
the necessary raw material. In Wis
eonsin alone. it is stated. there Is
an annual market for over 100000
cords Of pulpwood.

Athletics to Pay Out

The high school will probably
break even this year on the finances
of athletics. There has been $73
worth pf season tickets sold and
S53 taken in at the Manhattan and
Lost Springs games. AS far as can
be Judged ahead these seems to be
no reason why the high school
should not come out even this year
Should the athletic association pay
all the debts without the aid of the
school board it will be the first
time for the last three years.
Sites for New School Considered
The two sites which the school
board is now considering as loca-
ton for the new high school are the
Brown property between Sixth and
Seventh on Buckeye, and the South
worth property between Eleventh
and Twelfth on North Buckeye.
The board is now investigating to
see if it can buy one of these half
blocks without the necessity of
condemnation proceedings.

where Mr.. Griffin plans to open new

Everyone knows that Shoes, along
with other goods, have scared away
up in price, but the Garman & Ziegler
stock was bought before the prices
advanced and along with this, during
this Great Sale, the prices will be
Cut Twenty-Five to Fifty Per Cent
and in the case of odd lots and broken
lines-why, dollar and quarter will
buy about five dollars worth of Shoes.
This is fine opportunity for the
whole family to stock up on Shoes.
Another chance as good as this will
not occur for many year.
