Mr.. George Philip of our city has
one of the finest collections of week
y papers, guns, an autograph poem,
Opportunity" by John j. Ingals,
and many other relics that can be
found in a private collection any
where in the western part of the
state. One of the papers, 'sThe Ul-
ster County Gazette" is dated Jan.
4, 1900. 1t was on last Thursday
the writer saw it. On that date it
count of the death of Washington.
He had died Dec. IA, 1893 just 21
days before the paper was published
IN Scotland. The article about Wash
ington closed with these words, "tfe
wonder of the age" and we are glad
to state that that estimate made 116
years ago by his enemies still holds
good about our first president Mr.
Philip has a paper dated June 22d,
1915, published days after the bat
tie of Waterloo. This paper would
be interested to those who are study
ing comparative battles of great wars
But perhaps the most intensely inter-
esting paper of the collection to Hays
people is a copy of the "Hays Sen
tlneI' issued in Hays 43 years ago,
as it does today. Flour sold at S4.25,
lumber at $40, eggs 35c, butter 4Oc,
potatoes $1.6O, lard 20c, corn Sf.40,
beans SC and coffee 40c But one
thing worth mentioning is at that
time the editor went to divine wor-
ship, although he records that the
citizens were not over pious.

ers' training you will find two classes,
