A traveling slight-of-band man visited an Indian encampment near Lewis-ton, Idaho, the other day. Seeing a small dog, he asked how much they would take for him. The Indians said that they didn't want to sell. "Him very good dog," said the magician, rubbing him down the back, at each stroke, taking a handful of money from the end of his tail; also from his mouth, ears, and nose. The Indians looked on in stolid silence, but after the magician went away they, took the dog down to the river bank and killed and dissected him.

To their great chagrin they found that the slight-of-hand man had milked him of all his money. New York Sun. Thursday of last week Mrs. Mary A. Glass, wife of A.

The new enemy to Kansas agriculture burrows into the heart of the young stalk near the root and saps the life out of it.

Kansas corn crops are simply enormous, and this is one of the grand reasons why Kansas is such a prosperous state. Kansas has undoubtedly won the first place among the corn growing states of America.

It is an undoubted fact that Kansas last year raised bushels more of merchantable corn than any other state. And as corn is is king of the corn growing states. There is to be a railroad meeting held at Harper to-day and this morning a Doris Colrin's Bijr Show Has All the People it Could Hold.

The rope was Btretched ac ross the entrance to "the big circus and hippodrome tent, and lfite-come.

were forced to stand in the entry-way lea ling to the great menagerie tent. The audience was certainly as well-behaved and delighted as it was large, and the performers were, might be said, inspired, eo spirited and lively were the acts they performed. One thing must be said of the big show, and that is that every actor is a finished artist ani every act a perfect picture toned with artistic skill. The circus performers are, wittout doubt, the best we have had here for some time, and the riding, leading, tumbling, aerial jugnling, contortion, gymnastic and ottier acts cannot be excelled. The Roman hippodrome riders are all trained jockey and hippodrome artists, and the horses blooded stock, second to none of the crack flyers of any racer's stable.

The ancient Romans may have ridden well we are not old enough to speak from actual observation, acd we concede that they were when the coliseum had its day but if they rode any better and faster, any finer, any braver, any more graceful than the Doris fc Colvin risers do, they certainly rode at such a pace and in such a way that the most captious critic praise without stint.

The story is told of Chaplain Allison, of the Minnesota Legislature, that he prayed one morning: "And now, dear Lord, bless the reporters, whose nimble pens catch every word almost before it is uttered. Like thyself, they are omnipresent, and almost omnipotent. If we take the wings of the morning and fly to the uttermost parts of the earth they are there. They meet us in the jungles of Africa, they waylay us in the solitary canyons of Colorado, and when at length we find the latitude of the magnetic pole, behold, they are there.

May their light and goodness be equal to their power, and in the general assembly of heaven let no reporter be excluded." llentor. number of our citizens departed to take part in the same.
