The highest punk of the Wichita
mountains is 2,359 fai't itbovc level
ami 1,350 font above the lovel of the laud
at its base.
Tlia state of Kansas was fifty years old
Tuesday last, having been admitted to
tho Union on the iwonty uiuetU day of
January 1801.
J. E. Wells, formerly nf the Caldwell
Advance, has joined in with Ihobusiness
aud pencil-pushing combination which
is doing such tine work in conducting
the Hennessey Press-Pemocrat. 1 ho
Printer, Wichita
i>\Hs has been lighting tb* Standard
Oil trust for years, and now her efforts
along that line are to be rewarded. She
has opened oil w*ils of her own and will
become an exporter instead of an im-
porter of petroleum.
Mrs Carrie Nation, tho joint wrecker
of Kansas, was warmly rccoived a'. To-
pe' * Saturday night. The wife of a
joint-keeper iusault J tho "barrel smash-
er" with a broom-stick, who rained blow
after blow on her head.
It looks very much to a man up a tree
that congress has becomo a mill for the
blinding out of special legislation to the
of tlie detriment of that general legisla-
i iou for the benefit of the people at
large for which tliey wok croaud
The price of protected -vool has dc-
clined 22 per cent., while the prico ot ' ij'(n jV''l '-t-nt
unprotected cotton has advanced over f.d !' ^,in. «*■ worth of work
percent. This ought to make the tarin , . .. i
' , ; with pu'flnt cold tiro setter, to be .kwjru
tes a trifle sheepish ubout preaching , , , .
' ed later by the committee
the heresy that protection causes pros-1
iierity.
Premiums Awarded by the Executive
Committee. Many Premkimnj
Sold at Auct.on,
The members of the evecutivo coin-
mittc of the Hennefisev Poultry and Pet
Stock association, met at the P.-I), office
Saturday afternoon and awarded tho
premiums earned at the show last week.
In nearly every case after tho premium*
had been awarded they were donated to
the association and sold a', auction to the
highest biilder. Hy so doing and with
tho cash donated by the business men, a
«urn was realized to pay olf all bills
against tho association i.n'l havu four or
five dollors left in the treasury. The
objoct of the association was to «iieour-
age the brooding of bolter stock and not
a money making scheme, it can truly
be said that Hennessey paid the bill -
thereby allowing all to visit 'he rhow
ree. Following w a list of premiums
awarded:
M. Davis, all worth of merchandise, by
Humphrey Supply Co.
W. K. DimuiU, one pound of home
made candy, by Slayton & tjlore, also 1
pound host cotrne, 1 pair good gloves, by
,1. II. Hash, the cash store; 1 dog collar,
by S. N. llrees: and memborship to The
American White Plymouth Hock club of
Albany, New York.
Mrs. W. T. Pernell, one bottle of best
perfume, by 0. C. Saur, the East Side
druggist.
W. T. l'arnell and W. F. Dimick were
awarded ladies' gold watch chain, by C.
A. Ball, jeweler and optician. H was
donated to ;1h> association and sold to A1
Davis. Lyons.
II R Baker, easy shave, by Thome &
Henry, propi i"iors of the Eclipse barber
shop.
W. II Mongold, one pair Famous Had
Sua! b< si bluedemin overalls, by It L.
He Donald & Co., St. Joseph, Mo.
Harry Evans, one 1 foot Evergreen

Kansas, by J. I) Pain,
There is ji big revival at Hiawatha,
Kansas. Friday last- all the busineis
houses and the schools closed so that the
clerks and scholars might attend. It Is
aid that tho town is in a state of re if-
ious frenzy. Over 200 have joined tho
church.
Cleo wants a photographer and lh;
Chrouoscope gives the following reasons
why ouo should locate there. It says:
There aro more handsome big girls, pret-
ty little ones, babies, ugly men and bull
dogs for him to operate on than could bo
shooed with a club.
This is a funny, fanpy world. Some
people, who exhibited at the poultry
show last week, and who did not under-
stand the object, were surprised when
they did not have to pay to get, in or pay-
to ^et out—there being no entoranco foe
—then expficted a National bank a;: a
premium.
Thero is cutirley to much ditferenco in
the price of sohool books in Oklahoma
and Kansas. The latter publishes or onn-
trols its text hooks and si-vox the people
thousands of dollars annu.liy, vrhilohi re
in Oklahoma the people aro bled unmer-
cifully by the book im.nl in order that it
should ixist. The Oklahoma lesislatt re
ought enact a law, giviair her boys and
girls cheaper and better books r<\"nrdh-i
of what the book trust may do or say.
If there is anything that Ilrunesj .y
should bo proud of, it ought lobe Griffin's
Military band. A good band is tho life
of a town, and while it is somewhat ex-
pensive to keep one up, t ho business m
cannot nso thetr money for advorlUhir
purposes to better advantage than oi a
good band. During the summer a nu -
bor of towns engage thoir bands to
free concerts—which s a drawing cird
-as people enjoy good mutic and do not
hesitate to drive half a dozen or mora
miles to enjoy an hour or two of filie
baud music

We take this means to thank our mvy
friends who contributed to our wcltn -e
on account of tho logs of our home I>y
lire, and hope that they may never be >o
unfortunate as wn were. We are in *
lairlv well protected by a house, hasti j
built, by a generous and kind people
Dr and Mrs. Shirley.
