Alma Story of Fairview, Oklahoma, and was apparently in his usual health. Mr. Shacklett was a resident of Burton from 1882 until 1903, moving to Wichita that year. He was born in Meade county, Kentucky, Feb. 4, 1842, and died April 2, 1914, aged aged 72 year 2 months and 6 days.

He was a member of Wichita Post No. 1,350 United Confederate Veterans. The funeral was conducted from the home of his son and was in charge of the Confederate Veterans. He leaves three sons, John, of Wichita, Albert and George of Los Angeles, California, and a daughter, Mrs. Albert Storey, of Fairview, to mourn his loss.

Interment was made in the Burrton cemetery Saturday evening.Burton Tribune. MUSICAL FESTIYAL WAS A WINNER. In every way Newton's big SpringMusical Festival this week was a pronounced success. It was by far the highest class of Musical entertainment ever heard in Newton and the new Auditorium was delightful place for this kind of entertainment. The festival was likewise a success financially, everything paid out and a small surplus left.

Many people from neighboring towns were present. Most merchants here closed their places of business each day during the afternoon performance. The following and organizations were on the program: Monday afternoon, the Metropolitan Grand Opera Quartette. Monday night, Alice Nielsen, famous soprano of the Metropolitan and Boston Grand Opera Co. Tuesday afternoon, the St.

Paul Symphony Orchestra. Tuesday night, the Oratorio "'The Messiah" by the Bethel College, Oratio Society, accompained by the St. Paul Symphony Orchestra. NO DANGER. The mysterious worm which had been reported to be destroying wheat in western Kansas is none other than a common clay-back cut worm, according to George A.

Dean, professor of entomology in the Kansas State Agricultural College. When the first report of damage was received, an entomologist was sent into the infested region. Infestation was found to be confined practically to wheat fields containing much volunteer wheat and to grass lands and alfalfa fields. Unless weather conditions are unfavorable for growing crops, the worms will probably, says the entomologists, cause no great loss of the wheat crop. Mr.

and Mrs. J. L. Buck entertained the members of the Fairmount Glee Club at dinner at the Arcade Thursday noon, in honor of their niece Miss Mildred Johnson of Sedgwick, who is a member of the Club. The young ladies later spent a pleasant hour at the Buck home on East 3rd Street, after which they were guests of Chris.

Wagner at the Star Theatre. They left for Wichita on the afternoon train. Lakin township farmers are to make a test of hog cholera serum on their stock. The work was commenced this week under direction of specialists from the State Agricultural College. Every hog in the township is to be vaccinated in order to make a thorough test.

Each family buys four 500-pound books, yaying $2.00 for each book as purchased, making their season's supply cost $8.00.

This year we are going to give our customers the opportunity of saving $1.00 on the cost of their season's supply of ice. We have for sale 2,000 lb books for $7.00 cash. By purchasing one of these books, the customer saves $1.00. This means that his $7.00 invested early in the season, will earn $1.00 in six months or less, making 14 per cent in six months or at the rate of 28 per cent per year. These books may be purchased of the drivers or at the office at the corner of 5th Oak Streets.
