Blair, Prop Ashland now has an up-to-date first class barber shop and bath room, Mr. Thomas and his assistants having opened the new place Tuesday The room is equipped for four chairs and has the latest in bath tub and center stand, with hot and cold water. Mr. Thomas deserves much credit and should receive the entire patronage of the city as a uoken of our appreciation of his effords to provide this much needed improvement. Those who are most interested ought to appear in force before the commissioners at the April meeting and demand some immediate action to improve the road3 throughout the county.

Such alleged thoroughfares as we have are a disgrace to any community and a menace to vehicles and the travelers lines. The necessary work can be done at moderate expense if only the bad places are fixed. For goodness sake don disturb 'em where they are now good. LATER Harvey Clark got in with their auto Tuesday night. Mrs.

Boost for good roads. Miss Ethel Brown is again on duty at central. We understand two famlies of dunkards have come into this vicinity. Tuesdry evening's passenger was four hours late-another wreck we presume. The old harder shop is dark and never more will echo the snip of scissors nor scrape of razor.

Revival meetings are in progress at the M. church under the direction of Rev. Mr. Watts. Every body is cleaning house since Sunday evening's terriff ic dust storm.

That was a fright sure enough. It is reported that the headquarters of theTheis ranch north of town, has been sold at $40 per acre. M. T. Robison, of Illinois, a nephew of the late J.

W. Robis-. on, came in last week to look after the estate of his uncle. We hear that the "Squire" Robison property has been sold to one Mr. Root who will soon take possession.

Frank (Irish) Sughrue is laid up at home with a broken ankle received by the breaking of a buggy Nwheel while traveling rapidly. The accident falls mightly hard on him just at this time when work is plenty. The Santa Fe should either put another passenger coach on the trains on this line, or put on two long cars. The traveling public ought not to be called upon to stand up half way to Wichita and from that city to coats. Miss Era Beckett and her mother departed Wednesday for Palmyra, Miss Beckett has for several months been operator at the central office and has been most kind accommodting to the phone patrons.

We regret her departure while the pharmacist's grief is a sore burden. Harry Willamson, of Coldwater formerly a resident of this place was in the city Friday. This was his first visit in 20 years and he expressed great astonishment at the improvement and prosperity every where evident about town. Come again, Harry? we will always give you the glad hand. The horse is still in it-as Sam Franke of Englewood can testify Sunday he phoned for Charlie McCrellis to come up and take him home in his auto but Charlie got hung up in the sand and backed out-with considerable assistance- and gave up tho trip.

The new law is a complete taxation code, making a few important changes in the present revenue law.

One is, taxes fall due in October instead of December and are to be paid in one installment instead of two as before. The time of making the assessment remains the same. i P. T. Marcum' is in no way connected with The Englewood Mercantile his business is a separate concern, with the exception of being employed as clerk.

and Henry Wulf was out from Garden Plain this week, looking after his land tinterests. While here closed the sale of 1120 acres of Ford county land which he recently purchased. It is perhaps needless to say he cleaned up a neat profit on the deal. Wednesday noon while coming into town in a buggy with her daughter, Mrs. Kelgore, living on the east side of the county met Ben Towner in his auto.

The horse became frightened and ran, finalysmashin the buggy and injuring both ladies. Mrs. Kelgore suffered a gash on the side of her head, which required several stitches, and suffered other bruises but it is thought no serious results will follow. It is stated that the driver of the auto did not stop to render any assistance and he is being severly censured by those who saw the accident. Drivers of auto's must be held to strict account for damage they cause and should be extremely careful in passing horse vehicles on the road.

LATER And brick laying stoped again. The awakening is still in the future. Two gentlemen from Madison, were here Monday to buy cattle. Lumber in the local market advanced 50 cents per hundred Monday. Selah.

Campbell was out from Wichita this week looking after his ranch matters. One Mr. Appleby is the new City Marshal. We understand he intends to buy lots and build a resdence. Interest in city politics was at white heat the first of this week-eight candidates for mayor and all declining but one.

The snow of last week was mightly acceptable to the fermers, but the rest of us could have pulled through without it. Judge Price's family returned from Topeka, Friday evening, glad to be home again. The Judge is attending court at Beaver and Meade Feed-in the way of forage, is very scarce and practically impossible for us town people to get. It hasN become a serious question to many. White Sunday was a rally day for the temperance people the other side seems to have had a rally round the bottle, boys, judging from the "dead soldiers" on back lots and the uncertain steps of certain devotees of back us.

Rot Ravenscraft returned Friday from Topeka, his third trip as one of the State's Solons. In view of the re suit of the session Lot thinks we ought not to hold anything against him as he did his best against the combined effo rts of the anti-stubbs forces and the corporation heelers who made common cause to discredit Stubbs. From the bunch of "machine men" and railroad adherents dlected to the legislature the people got just what they voted for. Sunday was rally day and all churches gave up their regular service that all might attend, the State organizen, a very talented lady was the sderker and was very entertaining. Some parties present, whose tender toes were probably trdd upon, do not agree with Bro.

Watts statement that the entertainment beat anything ever held in the opera house at 50 cents per-and then he asked for a dollar. Be it said however, that the collection wa3 too small for the crowd and the sause. Tli First National.
