Was Some Town Booster

Old Brigham was a Boomer in

Ie turned the mountain rivers

Nenro Versus Woman.

The Republican party in Kansas
claims to have done so much in favor
of woman suffrage. Yet the party
failed to nominate a single woman
for state office, while at the same
time they named negro as one OF

The Democrats honored the women
voters by nominating Mrs. Margaret
Grandle of Pittsburg as Secretary OF
State, and Mrs.'n.R. C. Layman Of

OBITUARY

Elizabeth Opdyke Weaver was
born December 10Th, 1867, in
Warren county, New Jersey,
where her early life was spent
and where her parents still live.
She was married to Rev. w. r.
Weaver in 1886, about three
years after they came to south
west Missouri and took work in
the st. Louis Conference of the
Methodist Episcopal church, but
on account of her failing health
after three years they went to
northwest New Mexico and then
into southwest Colorado where
they did missionary work. Six
years were spent in this noun
tain mission field, in all of which
Mrs. Weaver took an active part.
In 1897 they took work in the
southwest Kansas conference
where they resided till her
death.
She was converted in early life
and always rejoiced to be active
ly engaged in the work of the
Lord.
She took great interest in chill
dren and young people in their
amusements as we'll as their
schooling and their religious
lives. She was very solicitous
that their amusements should
bear the same moral standard
as that of the church or the
school.
She often reminded her chill
dren that much was expected of
them on account of the sacred
calling of their parents. On ac-
count of her precepts, her exam
pie in goodness and generosity,
md her fortitude and patience in
long continued suffering, her
children will call her blessed"
Though sorely afflicted, her
hands, like those of Dorcas of
old, were ever busy in making
he garments and useful articles
or children and friends.
She was always busy, believ-
ing that, "Not only is he idle who
oes nothing; but he is idle who
hight be better employed"
On Sunday morning, October
Goth, 1916, at Colorado Springs,
Colorado, God kissed her spirit
iome to the heavenly land at the
I ge of 48 years and 10 months.
Of her immediate family she
j. survived by her husband and
eleven children, Mrs. j. M.Kel-
Y, Mrs. VIM. Ruscoe, Benjamin
Weaver, Mrs. Ira J. Marriage,
Wm. T. Weaver, Ernest B.
Weaver, Ralph H. Weaver, Eliz-
; beth Weaver, Winifred Weav-

of Elizabeth, New Jersey, and
Aer aged parents Of Warren

Funeral services were held in
s--!e Methodist church in Fowler,
E.ansas on Tuesday, October
21st, in charge of the pastor, P.
G. Herbert, assisted by Rev. j.
W. Jones and Rev. F. o. Hunt.
The body was taken to Hutch

GERMAN DENIAL NOT

The news that Ambassador Gerard
would be handed the German dis
claimer had been forecast in press
reports and todays announcement
that he would receive the note to-
night or tomorrow did not cause sur

Their information from other sources.
Much importance is attached to arm

too, that Mr. Lansing is awaiting the
outcome Of an inquiry at Paris about
the ease of the liner Patria. at which
d torpedo is alleged to have been
fired some time ago.
Probably the German note and all
the data needed for determination ot
the position of the United States VIII
be in hand in time for Fridays cabi-
net meeting. Until then no announce
ment of attitude Is expected. That
some definite action will follow
promptly is freely admitted, but no
