Their little 80u became very ill and Mre. Gorsuch brought him to this county about three weeks ago, thinking the change would be beneficial.

The citizens of Olathe are consider. ing a proposition to establish a starch factory at this point. A gentleman formerly of of Oswego, New York, and at one time connected with the starch factory at that place. has come to Kans98 He made at attempt to establish a factory at Wichita and was met with open arms by the citizens of that city, but when it came time to realize, Wichita property had depreciated to such an extent the stockholders were bankrupt. This same gentleman now makes a similar proposition to Olathe.

He has not sufficient capital of himself and so desires to organize 8 stock company. The machinery will cost about $5000 outside the buildings and grounds. Quite a number of our best citizens have indicated their willingness to take stock. We hope the amount of stock will be subscribed soon. This factory is a practical coucern, and will furnish a good market for raw products and labor for many of our people.

A Card. On the morning of the 27th ult. the explosion of a lamp set fire to my barber shop and before it could be extinguished caused considerable damage. I fortunately had a policy in the State Insurance Company, of Iowa, represented by W. B.

Henry, and in less than three days from the date of the fire, my loss was satisfactorally adjusted, and paid by sight draft dated Aug. 4th, for $53.00. FRANK SHOCKLEY. OLATHE, Sept. 8th, 1888.

Another Card. About a year ago I insured my barn in the Burlington Insurance company against fire, lightning and wind storms. One of the recent storms blew oft a portion of the roof of my barn; I reported the damage to W. B. Henry, special agent of the company, who had the damage repaired.

The Burlington settled this loss with their usual promptness and fairness, and I can cheerfully recommend the company as one that settles its losses promptly and honorably. A. J. HUNT. OLATHE, Aug.

25, Still Another Card. To Whom it May Concern. As directors of school district No. 8, Wyandotte county, we wish to say: in November 1884 we insured our school house in the Burlington Insurance company taking a five year policy. In the Spring of 1886 this school house was damaged by a windstorm and the damage was promptly and fairly adjusted by the company.

Again in on June 15th. 1888, the same building was struck by lightning and consideraby damaged. The loss was reported to the company and the same prompt attention, and equitable adjustment and full payment of loss as before to our entire satisfsction and we take pleasure in recommending the Burling. ton Insurance company to the insuring public.
