Osgood, one of the pioneers of this city, and well known to everybody in this neighborhood, died at his home in this city: He had been in bed and under the care of a doctor for several days, suffering from heart trouhle. He had expressed himself as feelimr hot M. M. DRUG CO. ter and said he would arise and take a USE PENSLAR'S REMEDIES walk.

He was on the side of the bed, ready to put on his clothes, when he suddenly fell forward dead. Those of our citizens who perfer the higher class of the theatrical presenia- tions, are looking forward with ploas- ure to the appearance of Gilmor Brown and his artistically superb com- pany at the opera house here on the nights of Friday and Saturday, Octo- ber25 and 26. It will not only be a theatrical event, but a social event as well, as all of our citizens will undoubtedly aim to be present at both of these presentations. The Gilmor Brown company will present Anthony Hope's fine dramati-j zationof his own world-famous novel, "The Prisoner of Zenda," and very likely 'Hamlet." The company is one of the largest and best on the road, and the manager of the opera house should be congratulated for having been able to make arrangements with the company to visit here, us it is a big financial undertaking.

The playing of these two widely different parts requires great versatility, and also incredibly quick changes of costume and makeup. The play is one that pleases everybody.

It is vital and thrilling and enriched wi th comedy and romance, while from a spectacular point of view it is most pleasing to the eye, with its varied and beautiful scenes and rich costuming.

His father was killed in action, and one of his brothers died in Andersonville prison, his oier brother escaping. After the war, Capt.

J. II. Randolph left last Thurs Friday night. It was the first game of the season, for our home boys and they were defeated by the score of 32 to 0. When it is taken jnto consideration "that seven of the Meade players had never played in a game before and that the Pratt team is supposed to be the best around this part of Kansas, having played and won a number of games this year, our team did remarkably well, and we predict this year's fooU ball team will make a good showing before the season closes.

Pratt scored three touch downs in the first quarter, but after that the Meade boys held the Pratt players down in good shape. Fred Hamilton, the 7th and 8th grade teacher, accompanied the team to Pratt. The Pratt High School entertained our players at a banquet, and the Meade players speak only complimentary words of the entertainment and good treatment they received at the hands of tho Prat boys and girls Revival Meetings.
