E. PIERCE.1 O. U. Anniversary. The 26th anniversary of the founding of the Ancient Order of United Workmen, is to be celebrated during the next four weeks in all parts of the United States, says the Kansas City Star.

The anniversary day is October 27, but as it is not practicable for all the lodges to celebrate on that day, the heads of the order, particularly in the west, have counseled the members to hold their anniversary demonstrations within the two weeks before or after the 27. There are eighteen A. O. U. W.

lodges in Kansas City, with a combined membership of about 2400. Tho Bright Side. Lookin' on the bright side That's the way to go; All the time the right side, Summertime or snow. Clouds have got a light side All the bells will chime! Lookin' on the bright side Gits there every time! When the weather's hazy Light the lamps an' still Think you see a daisy Hear a whippoor-will! When you're out of money, Smile an' take your ease! Think about the honey That's a-comin' with the bees! Stolen. Girard Press item: Art Crossen, Excursion to Eastern Points.

October 17 and Nov. 14 the Memphis Route (K. Ft. S. will sell round trip tickets at one fare to various points in Indiana, Ohio and Michigan: Tickets will be good 20 days from date of sale.

T. DLUT Sheriff of Crawford county, nsa lAsCi'NDV Cliggitt, Attorneys 01 I'UWj'Z: 1 Walters PI ill EPRESEUTED Across the state line in Kansas City, there are ten lodges with a to tal membership of 1,500. The lodges in this city and Kansas City, propose to celebrate the anniversary in a fitting manner, but whether they will join is yet to be determined. In Kansas City, it is proposed to have a public meeting in which speeches will be made by the orators of the order, the meeting to be preceded by a street parade with all the members of the ludges participating. I he order was founded by John Jordon Upchurch at Meadville, Oct.

27, 1868. It had on August 1 ast a membership of 332,000 in the United States, and during its 26 years of existence it had disbursed out of the beneficiary fund to the widows and orphans of members 52 1-2 millions of dollars. The order has 25,000 members in Kansas and is almost as strong in Missouri. Wicked man humping along, Wind and dust coming strong, Well dressed women, pretty feet, Whisking hurriedly across the street; Wind that blows her skirts awry, Wallops dust in the w. ms.

eye. R. M. DeGarmo, aged 48, a prom inent farmer who has lived near Beulah for many years, died at the city hospital Wednesday night of ap pendicitis. Two days before his death he was operated on by the surgeons of the hospital, but the opera tion did not save his life.

Deceased had been troubled with appendici tis for many years, and the disease was aggravated by a cancerous growth. The funeral services will be held at the home of the family near Beulah, this, Friday afternoon. The commercial club held a meet ing Monday night to discuss the proposition to put in a mutual telephone system. Under the present system the rates are $36 for residences and $50 for business houses, and under the mutual system it would only be $18 for residences and $24 for business houses, which would place telephone ser vice within the reach of all. It is estimated that the mutual system would cost about $7,000.

Thos. Walsh, of Grant township. Democ. candidate for probate iudere. was in the city Wednesday and Thurs day, shaking hands with his old friends, and making new acquaintances.

Mr. Walsh is making a can- C7 vass of the county, and gains many votes wherever he goes. He will make the Republican and Populist candidates hump themselves before the campaign is over. A young widow lady runs a butch er shop in Scammon and one night recently some sneak thief stole 27 large beef hides from her shop, and pressed into service the widow's horse and wagon to haul them away. Talk about gall, what's the matter with than.
