Fifth Avenue, opposite Opera House. The Fifth Avenue Closed.

The Fifth Avenue Hotel closed on Thursday morning owing to some disagreement between the stockholders and Frank J' Hess the present proprietor. It Js a great pity these difficulties could not be adjusted in some way, to the satisfaction of all concerned. It should be the pride of the city. It ranks third in the state among fine hotel buildings. Frank Hess, who has had control of it for several months, undoubtedly has shown himself master of the situation and no doubt would make a financial success of it were he let alone.

A hotel ought to be an individual enterprise, then no cranky stockholder can step in and interfere. It has been this that has brought this house to its present status. Give Frank a chance and he will pull it through. A Panoramic View. A circuit of fifty miles west and northwest from Arkansas City reveals to the eye of the observer, a real panorama of nature touched up a little by art.

For miles and miles the eye beholds boundless wheat fields, corn fields and all other cereals common to this climate. The country is rich and undulating and is truly a farmers paradise. A great diversity of crops is noticeable which speaks volumna for the good ense and judgment the occupan ts of these lands. Wheat and corn, however, are the predominating crops. Fruit of all kinds is found in abundance.

If this part of Kansas was devoted more to fruit culture, it would doubtless prove more profitable than grain. The peach crop will be abundant and old settlers along the route informed us that they never have an entire failure of peaches. While driving along Over this rout i i i ueauuiui neias oi waving gram, vast fields of corn, orchards laden with fruit, gardens full of choice vegetables ever meets one's gaze. No grander sight, no lovlier panorama could be conceived, than presented itself to us on this trip. The farmers of Southern Kansas should be happy and contented.

The drummer from Chicago was rattling off the merits of his goods in a way which at last caused the good old merchaut to look at him rather doubtfully. "Oh, I'm telling you the straight truth," said the drummer, catching on to the mild insinuation in the old gentleman's face. "It would hurt me to tell a lie," responded the old merchant "I know it would.

There was a Chicago man in town yesterday, and he said the same- thing, but I noticed that-he went right on suffering as long as he stayed here." Detroit Free One Snicker Settled-Him. He lifted his hat as gracefully as a born caValierand lie smiled as blandly as a June sunrise, but a lady stared at him in a cold, cruel way, and passed on says the Detroit Free Press. Fourteen years ago she was burning in Grand River from Woodward avenue. There was ice on the flagstone. She suddenly" slipped, shrieked and went down.

This inari was close at hand. Before he could control himself he snickered. He attempted to cover it up by assuming a deathbed countenance and offering his assistance, but it was no good. That snicker had pierced her soul. Even before she rose to her feet she had vowed never to forgive nor forget never! She never has nor never will.

He meets her almost daily as they go through life, and every time he lifts his hat and smiles, hoping to melt her heart and win her forgiveness. But he never, never can. If she had fallen gracefully, like a swallow setting to earth after long flight, it would have been different, you know; but she did not. She came- down rolled over twice, and he had nobusi ness to be within a mile of the spot. And that snicker! He may bow and smile he may look pleadingly imploringly at her, but never! never! never! will she forget nor forgive, or let a ray of mercy enter her flinty heart.

This almost produces immediate relief, and within an hour rest, perspiration and sleep.

In a few cases it was found necessary to give half a dose of the brandy and capsicum after a half an hour or more. A second half dose was never but should it be required it may bo given.

The marriage license clerk was sitting at his desk thinking of how many people he had been instrumental in starting on their downward course, when a red faced, raw boned young man from the country appeared to disturb his reveries. "Howd'y do?" said the visitor.

"I come to see about a marriage license." The clerk got out the big book and turned to where he had torn out the last one. "Well," he said, "who is it for?" Who is what for?" asked the visitor. 'iThe license, of course, Don't you want a license?" "Not if I kin help it. That's what I come in fer to see about. I got one t'other day, but I ain't used it yet and I wan't to know about it," "What do you want to know?" The seeker for information took the paper from his pocket, unfolded it, and spread it out on the desk.

"There it is," he said briefly. "What's the matter with that?" inquired the clerk, after he had looked it over. "Nothing, legally, I guess; but you see the girl that is named in there has Changed her mind, and she won't have me. I'm a hustler, though, I am, and I've got another girl that's willin fer keeps, but I don't want to spend no more money for licenses. Kin I get that name scratched out and t'other one put in, er have I got to blow in more wealth? That's what I come here to know about, mister."

"Urn," he said thoughtfully, "urn," this sets forth that the verdict was unsupported by the evidence, was contrary to the evidence, was a ainst the ght of the evidence, and that the eviaence was insufficient to support the verdict as to any or all of the issues; because of errors of the justice in admitting and excluding evidence; errors of law in the instructions' to the jury, improper conduct on the part of counsel for the caveator in addressing the jury, and in bills of exceptions." "Yes, your honor," replied the attorney. "And do you believe it?" "Certainly I do." "Well, well," and the judge grew sympathetic, "it's a pity that the judge, and attorneys, and officials, and jury, and witnesses in that court don't know as much as you do.

The plain common sense of the motto is this: A man endowed with shrewd business sense is going to advertise where he gets the largest returns. An advertiser gets the largest returns from his investment from those papers having the largest circulation, and if we can't prove to the satisfaction of business men, that we issue and circulate more papers each issue than any paper in the city, then we will charge nothing for our advertising space. The publishers of this paper are afraid to go into that business house to buy an article for cash, something unusual for editors to do, for fear he will be accosted with the question: Are you going into the Cherokee Strip, if so wel can't take your money.
