W.JONES. Mr. Jones Is the "Nasby" of this dot on the map, and also the principal of our public schools. He stands well, and walks well, too, If pasts records may be taken into account. He has taught at Maude, Tulbott, Walnut Hill and Valley kcIkhjI houseo during the past five years, boarding at home Juring all the trying experiences, and has been successful in bis labors.

He came from Missouri where they Insist upon beloK shomi and is conversant with both the science and the art of demonstration. His collegiate education included the commercial course at Amity College, Iowa, and two and one-half years in the normal course. On May 29, 1897, he formed a life partnership with Miss Winifred Watkine, (which he has never had cause to regret) and he is now reckoned among the substantial citizens of Cunningham. He Is reliable factor and a companionable individu.l, and you are tempted to use an equality sign when comparing him with her. Little Ruth, their only child, is an apt gleaner in the field of human knowledge.

Jones Is not built upon the "hurrah" plan, but is substantial. He is full of motive and will power, and was born to accomplish and succeed. As an agricultural pasttlme he is also the overseer of a farm south of town and has fifty Reminders of Curlier Days and Oil-Hand Sketches ol the I'laee, Its People and Its Business Industries. is on too high a plane to need the assistance of favorable comment; and, while the schools of Kingman county are among the best, the Cuuningham Inst tution of learning ranks well in the class.

Harve Howell was here when the never-to be-for otten cyclone came. He carried a stock of general merchan dise at the fatetul time when the ele ments were In wild commotion i.ud the storm spirit rent the air. The cyclone relieved Ilarve of his Btouk of goods in a vain endeavor to "scatter plenty o'er a smiling laud." It was a hard blow, but he bobbed up sen nely after the angry winds subsided, and went at it again. He proved hionself a stayer and now has a convenient storeroom, 24x60 feet, with a 12 foot ceiling, while overhead is tbe secret society hall of Cunningham. It is a general store in every respect that the name implies, inducing full lines of dry goods, dress goods, cloth ing and notions, headwear, footwear, overwear, underweai glassware and queensware, tinware and nearly every other ware except hardware.

His aim is to meet the popular de- mauds with the most desirable quail ties and styles, and everything in tbe various department is kept in such neat, clean manner that you cannot hell, but feel that you are in a store where the proprietor exercises com mendahle pride Howell does business on the broad gauge plan, which is its own best in terpreter. He enjoys a steady pation age every day and it seems to please his customers to have a good word for him. Not a seeker of personal admiration, nevertheless he appreciates the good will and prizes the continence reposed in him. lu the business sphere lie is one of the stand-bys. The grocery department of the store merits a special mention, and a more extended one than is consistent with the purport of this effort.

Let it suf flee to say that the supply is inexhaust able, the at rangement andy and attractive and the prices all right. The proprietor is the present acting Noble Grand of the Odd Fellows which indicates his standing in that charitable order. He has been in Kingmar. county for years and years and years, and formerly was engaged in nusines at uansia. Assisting him in the capacity of clerk is Miss Dora Lynam, whose prompt ness and ability are well known.

C.T.JONES. Tl8 eald "some people live to eat, While others eat to live." In either event an all 'round supply for the table can always be found the east-side grocery, where Charley Jones waits on his customers with an air of ease, comfort and home-like touch. His place reminds you of the popular "corner grocery," though situated near the middle of the block, and in fancy as well as staple groceries he sustains a reputation for carrying the best brands out. Though not pretentious in appearance nor overwhelming in display, he has a variety of goods and wares that would surprise the casual observer if he took the tltLO to look around and enquire; and dishes for the table, too, as well as edibles that tempt the appetite. Fruits, nuts, aud candies are strictly in his line, a' ticl teas and coffees ho can recommend.

Country produce is bought and sold and the meatblock of the town is in the rear of his store." Mr. Jones ha not been in tbe business very lo'ig, but has a tine trade and could wait on a few more customers in tbe same satisfactory manner in winch be deals with all who favor him with their cus torn. He Is not courting favor, but he would ba pleased to demonstrate to you that be can interest you on every purchase in the grocery line aud handle your produce at a straight, fail-price. Everybody knows Charley Jones. He Is comparatively young in business lite, hut his experience, coupled' with natural ability, marks him for success.

Mrs. Jones has a millinery department in the store. came to Cunningham two years ago last fall, succeeding Dr. Jeffries In the practice of medicine and In the drug business. T'ie doctor traces back to West Troy, N.

when reminding himself of his twyliood days. Passing by the period of his youth, we find him a graduate of Rush Medical Colle, of Chicago, In 1878. The lollowing year he took a post graduate course at the Omaha Medical College, and later engaged in practice in 11 mcock counts Iowa. Thence he removed to Luverne, the county seat of Rock county and finally anchored in Cunningham, where he is accounted among the act ive and persistent characters in busi ness aud social life, in politics and in general. His place of business is a model of neatness, cleanliness, and order id arrangement in detail.

A place found for everything aud everything put in its place. No haphazard skirmishing for needed articles, but systematic provision for every emergency. In the business world he is strictly business from tbe word "go," saying what he has to say and doing what be has to do. Socially he is an entertainer when he sets himself to be; practicady he is on tbe alert, aud stitutionally a man of execution. His stock of drugs, patent and proprietary remedies is suplemented with sundries too innumerable tor mention, includ ing paints, oils, curtains and wall pa per, cigars and confections, silverware and fancy glassware, and novelties without end.

This is the place to buy presents of every description during the holidays or any day in the year School supplies are also included in the stock, along with many necessary and useful articles designed to meet the public needs. The prescription department is un der the personal supervision of tbe doctor, and here tbe same care and ex actness is exercised that fixes its image on the Interior arrangement of the store. You get exactly what you call for, no more, no less. The benefits of a first-class drug store to the public are apparent at glance, aDd no town can get' along comfortably without one. So many stores of this class are stocked with antediluvian wares and nostrums, that a modern, up to date store should meet with appreciatian, and a propiietor who makes and keeps it so, merits the recognition and patronage of the pub lic without restraint.

In matters of, public enterprise and contribution Dr. Fort is inclined to be with the lead and his business both a professional way and in the line of merchandising is on a prosperous foot ing. lie is one of the substantial tlx lures of Cunningham. Mrs. May Fort, his wife, renders active and important assistance in the store.

J. V. MANUEL. Over thirty years ago, when Jack Manuel was a boy of tender age, he came from Green Bay, Wisconsin, to develop under Kansas influences, and has since proven to be in every respect the equal of a registered, pedigree product of the state. Before coming to Cunningham, in 181)0, he was en sured in handling bicvcles and ma chinery at Wakefield: for two years ho was also agent for the McCormick Harvester Co.

before he came to stay Iii business he started on the base line, with a bank account consisting principally of energy and an unalter able resolve to succeed In the business world. His development has been gradual but all the time he has been increasing and spreading out. The cyclone interfered with the ma terialization of his plans and left him for a time bewildered but astir, with nothing but a can of peaches and saucer to remind him or termer pos sessions. Phoenix like he has arisen from the ashes, and, at this writing has the largest implement house be tween Kingman and Pratt Center Carrying full line of wagons, buggies and vehicles, windmills, pumps and general farm and harvesting machin ery, he handles harness and saddlery on the side and paints end roofing for the overhead and cods. Mannuel also has the ice business, handles the express and runs the town delivery; owns a faim east of town with 100 acres in cultivation, and has unbounded Vaith in Kansas possibili lie is optimistic of the future and an inveterate hustler with insight and foresight as well as hindsight, and ail invalUiblc adjunct to the commun ity.

LOM HARD LUMBER CO. The above company, with home offices in Chii'iigo, has branches in Illinois, Kansii. Texas and Oklahoma, carries a full line of building material, including dimension and finishing lumber, agatite etc. Mr.

Sannel.T. Baldwin has been the local manager for a period of 14 years and during that lime has figured bills in 3uru petition with neighboring yards in every direction; and with the inside track and advantage In laying down lumber, has been it bin to guarantee as low prices as any firm in the trade, large or small, and to realize then in bis footings. All bills are figured cheerfully an I you can buy as cheaply rieht lure in Cunningham as any place. That is saying enough insofar as pnci-s are concerned. Air.

J. T. Carrier is at present in charge of the yard and can -easy to find. The firm Is handling, when not overstocked, from 30 to 40 cars per annum. BALDWIN RATCLIFF.

Occupying the double-roofed build- i'lg on cast Main street is the firm of Baldwin Ratcliff, compmed of S. T. Baldwin nnd J. M. RatclitT.

This firm succeeded John Hicks, one of tbe popular "old timers" of Cunnlughaiu. The change took place February 1 ,1900, and a year of experience and preparation finds the firm thoroughly organized for the Increasing business of the new bom century. Mr. Baldwin is the managing partner of the business, and as such has full control of details. His lengthy experience In local trade has made his face and manners familiar as the whistle of the locomotive, and he is thoroughly conversant with the general wants.

The main room of the store is 36x40, the rear anucx 20x30, and a good cellar adds to the convenience of the establishment. The stock of merchandise therein contained ranks "A No. 1," and while we would uot tire the reader with an inventory there are certain Hues that merit particular no- nice. For instance: The stock ot boots and shoes, without particularizing, is large enough for an ordinary footwear store of itself. Among the best makes are Smith-Wallace and ivli.irua brands.

Then the Utopia school hosiery wears like buckskin. A brand new line ot late stylish head gear has just been added. Gents' fur nishings arc provided in nobby styles. Sunflo er pants are in full bloom every mouth in the year and suits to meas ure with assurance of a good fit are furnished by special arrangement with the Star Tailoring house. The "Imperial" flour Is stilt gaining in popularity, and so is the firm so why enumerate further.

The assistance in the store includes Mr. Carrier, Miss Dora btmonsoi) and Miss Ins Ratcliff. Customers are always promptly waited up on and further particulars may be learned at the store. B. S.

HAYS. a town witnout a notci is nice a home without a cupboatb. A hotel without a landlord is Use a boat with out a ruuuer. such a vessel is iikc a shell without a kernel, but along this line you never have to faint or grow weaiy in Cunningham. B.

S. Hays, our very-much-awake landlord, is always on time, and the only complaint emanating from his homelike hostelry is from the creakiug of the table under pressure of us heavy burden. The traveling public is favorable to the Hays proposition and he recipro cates the natural affection with true loyalty to the public cause. Hays was a "Sucker" in infancy, polished bis eyesight in nawkeyedom, married a good wife (Ella A. Prather) while so journing in Iowa, aud went up against Kansas in the spring of '78.

Came to Kingman county (Uuiou township) in '92, and farmed. Arrived in Cunningham and assumed his duties as laud-lord last March. He has a family of which he is proud, and in common parlance would be classed as a "very handy man," and a landlord to the manner bern. In connection is the livery and feed barn, looked after by Bert Hay, aud here trausientss well as others are provided with the best treatment and promptest service Bert is a practi al gentleman, and in business affairs is strictly honest and reliable awake with tbe lark and conversant with nighthawk proclivities. L.L.

MICHENER. The name of Michener dates back to the period when the memory of civilized man runneth not to the contrary. Win. I'enn was acquainted and associated with one of the lineage, and, though the orthography of the cognomen has been somewhat diversified by the ingraft of transplanting impulse, (lie original blood continues to assert itself. Our Michener Is proprietor of the only hardware store in Cunningham, and is a familiar character.

His presence lends an air of conscientious but certain dignity to every movement with which he is coupled or which lie is attached. Formerly lie was a school teacher in Kansas, aud with a first-grade certificate high up in the "nineties" his services were in demand. An omnivorous reader and prolific thin er, he is also a ready talker: but, referring to the original thread of business ac tivities we must also give him credit for looking after commercial affairs in proper form and in due style. Michener could fill a wider sphere in life, as everybody concedes, but whatever he does hs does in company with his own prerogative, Michener is the only one ol the original Jstnneseahers left to tell the tale. "The last of the Mohicans," but not the least.

He came hue and blossomed out in the hardware busi ness August 5, 1885. He is still here and knows lots more about the people aud needs of Cunningham and vhini-ty than the I'orcy behind the fragile faher thai, weks to mtke him mention. fl. A. SCOTT, Our laborious harncssmau, has been here for almost a d-cade, and is as thoroughly in earnest as most, men yon meet.

Strict corscientiotisness is a separate paragraph in hi? decalogue, lie is a toiler and a good workman who believes that "well done is twice done;" on tides in socialism not t. an Utopian scheme but as a coming reality, and has saved iron his earnings until he makes a favorable showing as he continues to ki along. Scott is both a saver and a doer, nnd ymi never have to guess which side he i on. SKIMMKRY.

Foster is versed in the art of dress making aud is a practical, as well as an intellectual, expert. She knows how to tit, comprehends the various harmonieB of colors, shades, hues and tints, and produces harmonious effects that please and satisfy. That ought to be enough. TAYLOR ATKINS. He helped to dig the dirt that made the ground that other people named.

Settled a half mile east of town in 1883, when there was little else than grass, sky and horizon to eaze at, and not a bouse sight. Came to town about eleven years ago, looks after the Star Rout out of Cunntntiham and helps Michener in the hardware store. A Buckeye by birt nnd Kansan by experience, he moves with the ease of clockwork and helps to maintain goo feeling as he journevs alnnp. HERMAN KRELL.

They need uo introduction. All kinds of work in metal and iron that can be done by the best of the craft is performed here with ample facilities and every other needed thing that goes with the trade is supplied. A.T. F. Tr railway service at this point is at par with accommodations furnished under like conditions in the west to say the least.

At this time the local agent is Mr. Thad. Sell, who manipulates the electric key and represents the company in the capacity of agent. He was transplanted at this point December 12tb. He has had 10 years experience as operator and "extra." A pleasant wife and two little cherubs Ada and Yada) share his lot.

GARNETT ELLIOTT. Mr. Elliott is a citizen of Cunningham whose record defies impeachment and whoso ceaseless activity is proverbial. As operator and station agent previous to the recent disastrous strike he was for many years a very busy man. One of the guardian spirits of the town many ways, he is entitled to the credit due bis labors.

He is the correspondent of the Leader-Courier, and last week gave a write-np of the business interests of the city that was well moulded and presented in good foim. This concludes our sketch of the business characters and industries of Cunningham, and as our limit of space has been reached we reserve further mentions for succeeding issues of the Journal. We have aimed to be fair with all, and hope any shortcomings may be overlooked in the general spirit of the effort. Dresden. Sheriffs No.

McGee. During the summer of 1885 the Wich itaund Western brunch of the Atch-Inson, Tpeka and Santa Fe was built In Kingman county and the townsil of Ninnescah laid out on the south of the track, in llural township, about midway between Kingman and IV.U Center and 42 miles from the ter i.tory line. The Impulse ot the time kept everything awake and on the go, and a new tow. sprung up as by the waving of a fairy's wand. Those ere not the earliest days, but early enough to afford a touch of hi.h life along with commonplace affairs.

Time glided by. Lots in the new town were held for sale ou such, ex- borbitant.tcmiR that the democratic people planned and executed a revolt against the dictation of the company and purchased of Mr. Cunningham an 80-at re tract of land on the north side Of the rtilroad track and platted a town on their own hook. Lots were fiven free to business men who were in sympathy with the movement and saw tit to change location, and the town of Ninnescah began to be transformed into the present 'own of Cuu-Bingham, taking its name from the owner of the farm which constitutes the present location in Dresden township. During the popular transfer a primary cyclone Btruck the old town-site and dded in the work of destruction, desolation and desertion.

Again, about two years after the removal, a strong and steady breeze visited the new town in the guise of an aftertaste and left a trail of spasmodic horror. But the elemental climax, however, like the grand tableau, was reserved for the last act, and was recorded on the 17th day of May, 1898. In the ev ening of that eventful day all features were riveted upon the southwest cor ner of the compass and just above the horizon. A real cyclone was in sight It came it felt-it paralyzed without remorse or sympathy. The frightened people sought their caves without even Casting a "longing, lingering look be hind," and to this day tire glad they did.

The full details of that Visitation will probably never be classified for human contemplation. All manner of things from an army bean to a bouse-roof w-jre injected into the atmosphere to cavort around in space and circum navigate repealed and uncertain circles at the whims of the festive and pugna cious elements. Cuuningham survived all these drawbacks and A'istbacks, and, though to some extent recognized as victims of misplaced confidence, the inhabitants merged! from eacb successive strife Serene, Complacent and deiermined Today we open our eyes upon the scene of former trials to sketch the present. A charming little city meets the view rs you approach from north, south, easf or west, No towering spires and brown-stone fronts, but comfortable homes, a lively business street, a schoolhousc on the hill and a place of worship on the gentle slope. Cuuningham breathes of fairness and good cheer.

The people are all Americans and English spoken and as a rule grant to each other and the rest of the world the freedom they enjoy. Courteous without display friendly without reserve-hospitable on all oc-sions and conscientious on generous they move along with the tide of it progressive age and keep abreast the times. RESOURCES. Cunningham is situated near the northwest corner of Kinsman county, where resources are beyond coaiputa tion, stockra'miiig is a profitable pas-: time and the wheat-yield lends the bank account a basic pulse. Corn, rye, oats and other cereals yield well, as a rule, but wheat is the speculative prod uct of this particular section.

Drilled in the stubble ground, without the use- of a plow it generally jields a larger crop than many eastern fields can pro- by any method of tillage. Kaffir corn, cane and millet, supply'abundant rough feed for stock during the winter and the climate (barring an occasional mistake of the Weather Bureau) Is the healthiest and most reassuring on the face of the Globe. An abundance of pure and sparkling water is accessible to man and beast. The widespread agitation for good roads would be an useless waste of energy if all other sections of the state and Union were provided with -the natural advantages in respect to highways that we here enjoy, for very little labor is required to ket the roads in superb condition, EDUCATION A TiiH public scliool system of Kansas Civic society in (1 nonce is felt. Tie Odd-Fellows and Knights of Pythias have a commodious hall in the heart of the town, and the Modern Wood men assemble around their campfire to study and discuss the arts of woodcraft.

With the foregoing as a circum scribed outline of the place and past, the reader's attention is invited to the following facts and business character istics of Cunuineham. JOHN M. RATCLIFF. In the progress of human affairs it Is as natural for capability to reach the top as for oil to rise above water. The lime-wrought changes bring new char acters to view in the business and so cial panoramas, and the time in the affairs of each life that tahen at the tidemark leads onto fortune is the ad vaiitageous study of the man who car ries out a fixed determination to make his purpose win.

Seven years ago the subject of this sketch had not the wherewithal to buy a suit of "hand me-downs" today ho has the finest and largest country home in this sec tion, a half-mile south of town, his landed possessions consist of hundreds of acres of Kansas soil which are being added to from time to time. A partner in the grain and stock business of Rat- cliff Bros, he is also a stockholder in banking institutions. His transactions in live stock are too numerous tor the ordinary man to "keep cases" on. Only last week he sold a bunch of 26 mules to Mr. J.

M. Clark, of Westphalia, for $3,550, and this is only a sample of the occasional deals to which he-is a party Handling live stock of every descrip tion, and in any quantity, he is buyer or seller to suit the demands of the occasion. Last year there were 111 cars of live stock forwarded from Cunning ham Ratcliff Bhipped every car. John Ratcliff is a plain man in every practical sense of the word. A Ken Hiilrtiiti I-m Vtirtli tin 1Di.Aonivna t.ha meaning of southern hospitality.

He is kindly disposed toward everyone who deserves recognition, and his attractive home is the scene of oft-repeated gatherings of young people who delight to visit the younger, Ratcliff generation. He seeks no notoriety, but as a maU ter of fact is informational in discourse. Studious, laborious, coutemplaive and generous, are words descriptive of his inclinations. Other things he is fixed so he can carry out the Scriptural injunction "Owe no man anything except to love him," and was never vaccinated with the virus of pride that is so apt to tarnish the luster of riches. More consistent than lavish, his counsel and encouragement have wrought beneficial results in the busy world.

E. S. RATCLIFF. Every good firm needs an energetic oftlceman and bookkeeper, and the combination of capital, braii.s and enterprise doing business" under the firm name of Ratcliff Bros, does not have to go outside of the firm or even the family to fill the bill ki perfection. E.

S. Ratcliff transacts a huge and varied business in grain, stock and coals in addition to other financial affairs. Last year he shipped 28 cars of coal and shipped out 116 cars of wheat. He did the whole business, and kept his books in shape to bank upon. In truth it is next to impossible for In tn to make an error that his system of entries will not correct.

Ratcliff is a man any way you take him or any way he happens to take yon, and always at home whether his hat uiorns a nail or perches contentedly on its favorite resting place. This Ratcliff is one whom Mother Nature evidently created as a sample defying duplication, lie is it thorough man of business who never does anything piece meal, and puts his whole soul into whatever he undertakes.
