Meeting. On Monday night tinder the auspices of the W. C. T. U.

Mrs. Irons, Supt. of the mercy department of that organization, gave a very Interesting lecture in the Presbyterian church in Gardner. Though physically small, Mrs. Irons is intellectually great.

While in the Interest of temperance she drifted into new and diff erent Ileitis from ordinary lecturers. ti, kevnote of her lecture seemed to be that the crmes of this life are traceable to the cruelties taught the child, thai the dangers most threat ening us from a financial standpoint and from the point of moral intelligence as a nation is that public men legialato for self and not for the mass- es whom they represent. Her lecture showed her to be the warm friend and advocate of temperance; to possess an unwavering faith that while the gospel of Christ was Bent to uplift loan; it also teaches that the God-fearing man can only be a true light for that gospel, who is merciful to his beasts, merciful to all of God's creatures placed here upon earth for his benefit and comfort. She stood as the able defender of good government urged in a most truthful way the better education of the masses of our cities' poor, so of ten the hot-bed of crime and anarchy. In a very terse and graceful manner she declared woman's ability for better fields of labor and she certainly very clearly proved if greater national advantages were given women, the moral atmosphere of our national laws would be purer and the fields of crime very much uarrower.

In short her lecture covered a vast territory of thought; the subject matter of which was carefully selected and. the facts closely followed up. It was too good to only be heard by so small an audience. The thought occurred to the writer, "IIow can we more deeply to Impress upon those around us the worth of temper ance lives when we can not even give our presence oue evening to hear and encourage one who is so heroically and faithfully giving her life work to save the fallen and also to help hold I women of Gardner aud vicinity who are trying to give this great temperance society It foothold here. Their efforts will not be lu vain and when these boys shall be men may tlieir lives be such that the work of these loyal women only just begun, shall be as bread cast upon the waters and gathered many days henen, Onb Who Was Thkuk.

While hero she was entertained by Mesdarnes Seatar and Ott. Don't fall to be "in it" on that sack of Flour at the Olathe Racket. Complaint is made besause the Missouri Legislature has failed to pass a law to prevent boys of from 6 to 14 years of age from smoking cigarettes. In days not yet so remote that they cease to be a mutter of keen if not painful recollection, there was a law that was effectual Id such cases; a statute in that case "made and provided," which wts admirably efficient in Its operation. The Legislature was not invoked or expected to interfere.

The judge, jury and lord high cxoeutloncr Was the male parent of the offender. Sometimes this pulsnn-ug brushed with hasty steps the dew In the direction of the peach orchard, and sometimes he took the petrified palm of Ids wide ami ample hand to it, but the result was the triumphant supremacy of the law.

8. Greer, Kilguttou. by a lively trot. Mr. It.

noticed that it was his partners team which had just passed and thai the lines were dragging. Quick as a flash lie turned his team to the fence, and throwing the hitch rein around post, cut across the corner of the Geld tu head off the team, which wag just turning the corner. He ran like deer, and managed to stop the team. He looked Into the wagon expecting to find Mr. Graham in there sound asleep, bocause of the wakefulness of the previous night, but imagine his surprise when he found him not, but imagine the horror when he beheld a bullet hole in the side of the canvas cover, and an empty twenty-two rimmed cartridge rifle lying on the seat.

Tying the team as quickly as possible, he started back up the road to find Mr. Graham, whom he discovered lying by the side of the road, bleeding from a gun shot wound lu the forehead over the right eye. Mr. Beese ran for a mail who was working in a field about fifty rods away and secured his assistance. The two mon loaded the body of the man In the wagon, and started for Lane for medical assistance.

The only signs of life were the regular breathing and heartbeating, together with the fact that he lifted his right hand part way to his forehead, and once when they asked him if he was alive yet, he answered them "yes." When within about a half mile of Lane the light of life went out, and Frank Graham had joined the majority. The remains were taken to an undertaking establishment whore they lay until midnight. The telegraph wires were used, and brought to Lane that evening, relatives of tho dead man and Dr. Ewlug, of Ottawa, Coroner of Franklin County. It was deeided unnecessary to hold an inquest, as the' evidence seemed to be conclusive that it was pufoly accidental.

The remains were put on board the midnight train and shipped heme. Mr. Graham leaves a wife and one child, and other relatives to mourn his loss, and they have the sympathy of everybody. It Is supposed that the ride laid on the seat with the mur.le toward tho side of the wagon on which Mr. G.

was walking, and the wagon run into a rut, moving the gun, catching tbe trigger on something or other, causing it to discharge Its load which resulted a aboto free. Stephen J. Wilson, Banker, Olathe, Ks..
