JOLIV 1 In a personal mention in last week's HerAld we stated the age of Grandma Caruthers to be ninety-one years. We learn that she is one year younger than that. Grandma was born October 14th, 1802, so that to-morrow will be her birthday and she will be ninety years of age. She was born in Bedford, Ohio. When she was about a year old her parents moved to New Philadelphia, Ohio, where Grandma grew to wromanhood.

At the age of nineteen years she was united in marriage with Joseph Shattuck, who, Grandma claims, was the inventor of what is known as "Colt's" revolver. Grandma says her husband went to Washington with his invention and applied for a patent, but in some manner never understood by her he was defrauded out of his rights. She claims that Mr. Shattuck made the first percussion powder ever in use, although he never realized anything from it. Mr.

Shattuck died in 183S, and five years later Grandma was married to Noble Caruthers, who died in 1877. Grandma has been a resident of Kansas for the last thirty-four years. She lived for several j-ears in Burlinoame anl fr a lng time was a professional nurse in this city. Grandma was known far and near as a s3-mpathetic, capable nurse, and many of our citizens, at whose bedside she was a faithful attendant through lingering disease, have lived to bless her name. Grandma is a pleasing picture of old age that comes to that class whose years have been well spent.

She is old only in years, and one can scarcely realize from her cheery manner and intelligent conversation that to-morrow, if her live be spared, she will have arrived at the remarkable age of four score and ten. Choice loans on cattle and grain want ed by The Burlingame Bank. tf Four Hundred Years Ago. No doubt some of the Burlingame school children have heard of Columbus, whose front name is said to have been Chistopher. Columbus, as our older citi zens well remember, discovered America.

That was four hundred years ago yester day, according to the files of The Bur- lixgame Herald. Columbus had been sailing around looking for something for a period of sixty-one days. He had stopped five days for refreshments, however, at the Canary Islands. Columbus, some historians tell us, went sailing on the Atlantic for the purpose of finding a new route to Asia. Before setting sail he had procured letters of introduction from Ferdinand and Isabella to the grand Khan of Tartarjr, and he had no idea when he out of dropping anchor at San Salvador.

Had he gone to his original destination Burlingame and The Herald would probably not yet have been heard of. We are therefore under man' obligations to Columbus, and, although he has been dead for several years, we Ltill tip our hat to his memory. All lovers of a good, refreshing drink pronounce Chocolate Cream Coffee the best and. cheapest coffee the market, Sold by F. C.

Bracknev. tf Flour cheaper than ever at Brack-ney's. tf Happily Wedded. Miss Maggie Riley was married Au gust 15th last at Colorado Springs, Colo rado, to J. II.

Kreiling, of that city. Miss Riley accompanied Judge Wm. Thomson and family to Colorado Springs on their trip to the this city August 13th. She met Mr. Kreiling there by appointment and their union was consummated in the presence of a few invited friends.

Mr. Kreiling owns a tailoring establishment in Colorado Springs and is doing a prosperous business. He was for a long time engaged in business in Topeka, and is a gentleman of high character. Maggie Riley came to this city ten or twelve years ago from New York city, Avhere she was born and raised and where her parents died when she was very young. During the last nine years she has made her home with Judge Thomson and family, and they had become greatly attached to her.

Maggie has a wide circle of friends in this city, the list including those who have known her for many years. All with whom she is acquainted will join TnE Herald in wishing for her and her husband a long life of uninterrupted happiness. Chocolate Cream Coffee possesses all the essentials for making an invigorating beverage. Brackney sells it. tf Julius Csesar is the best cigar in town, and can be found at Linn Kelleher's.

Don't Forget It. Miss Susan B. Anthony is billed try the state central committee for a republican speech in this city to-morrow night, October 14th. Mrs. Laura M.

Johns is to accompany Miss Anthonj'. There is hardly a more distinguished lady in the whole country than Miss Anthony. She has for several years been one of the acknowledged leaders of the woman suffrage movement and is a gifted public speaker. Mrs. Johns is one of the brightest women in Kansas, and is a well-informed, entertaining talker.

The two ladies should receive a cordial welcome, as they no doubt will. The Herald suggests that a committee of Burlingame ladies, accompanied by the cornet band and young ladies' republican club, should by all means go to the depot to meet the two distinguished ladies. We trust, the ladies will act upon this suggestion and give Miss Anthony and Mrs. Johns such a greeting as will make them feel at home in Burlingame. Death of Little Ruby.

The sad intelligence reached this place this week of the recent death, at Chicago, of Ruby Hoover, infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Hoover, formerly of this city. Ruby was about two years of age, and was a very bright and winning household pet. Her death is a sad affliction, and her parents are bowed down with grief at her untimely depart ure from the family circle.

The Herald joins a wide circle of friends in extend ing Mr. and Mrs. Hoover warmest sympathy. en IRVING HALLER. know, bought the goods owned by Mr.

Cannada. To that stock he has made large additions so that now he has a very complete establishment. Every article has been marked away down, Mr. Howe believing in the old business motto of "small profits and quick sales." Those of our readers who visit Mr. Howe's store may rest assured that they will receive courteous attention and be dealt with on strictly honorable principles.

Scranton Items. The teachers' association, which was held here last Saturday, was a success in every wray. The morning session was held in the high school, but on account of the large number that came in the afternoon the afternoon session was held in the M. E. church.

Our school rooms present quite an artistic appearance, the result of the interest taken by teachers and pupils to make the interior of their respective rooms more attractive than the others. Number six, the grammar grade, claims precedence at present. Misses Clara Niles and Ella- O'Brien, two of Osage City's teachers, visited Miss Sara Allen on Saturday. A number of j'oung people gathered at the home of Mr. J.

E. Graham, last Thursday evening to eat watermelon. All report having had a good time, although they did not succeed in eating all the melons which were provided. The band went over to Overbrook Monday evening to play for and attend the republican meeting there. J.

Hudson was the speaker. Mrs. John Allen, who has been sick for sometime, is able to be up again. Little Mattie, the daughter of Dr. A.

W. Sellards, was poisoned Sunday by eating the seed of some weed. It is believed that she is now out of danger. Send Prettyman, the photographer, at Arkansas Cit3', Kansas, twenty cents, and he wdll send you a cabinet-size photo of the Dal ton gang, taken just after they were killed at Coffeeville. No More Divorce Suits.

Perhaps no subject known to the American citizens is attracting so much attention as that of divorce. Fifty years ago such a thing as a divorce suit was hardly known. Look at it to-day, our courts are crowded full and they have to await their turn as does the man who takes his grist to mill. Why? Because we live in an age of progress both male and female, but it seems that most of the progress has been made by the male. Why? Not because he is wiser or more energetic but because he is more selfish; he lays awake at night studies how he can lighten his work, he never fails to get everything in the way of improvements that will save him a few steps but loses sight of the fact that his poor wife who is compelled to take ten steps to his one, has never been provided with any of the modern improvements until very recently, she has had an opportunity of seeing one of the greatest labor-saving devises ever gotten up for the benefit of women, called the California Kitchen Cabinet and for the first time, she asserts her rights and tells her liege lord that she is going to get one, or that she has already placed an order for one.

Seeing the only thing for him to do, is to consent, which he does, and thus brings happiness to his home and rest to his dear wife who so long has been a slave for him. Everj home that is supplied with one of these labor and health saving devises will be presided over by a smiling wife which will bring sunshine and happiness, breaking away cloud3 that have so long been hovering over that household. $25,000 to loan on cattle and grain by The Burlingame Bank. tf Brackney sells Uji and Maple Leaf Tea. tf Millinery.

W. P. Beverly speaks directly to' the point in an advertisement elsewhere in this paper. Read what he says. Several wagon loads of lumber have y'tn hauled into the country this week.

The farmers are preparing for the winter. If our readers would like to see some genuine Kansas corn, they can find it on exhibition at the market of Vaughn Hallock. Schafer's skating rink will be opened 'lor the season next Saturday night. Admission for gentlemen ten cents and ladies free. The IIkkald repeats its prayer of last week for rain.

Even a newspaper man sometimes has to pray twice for hat he wants. J. W. Bulison has bought a fine line of cigars. Among the favorite brands are the following: "Pride of Egypt," C.

T. and "Quaker." The job press in The Herald office has been kept very busy this week. Of course the class of work turned out has been of the very best. The republican primary, election, for the nomination of township officers, will be held at the city building next Saturday afternoon, between the hours of three ami seven o'clock. Lost, Tuesday evening, between the residences of Dr.

Munger will address the club. Come out, everybody, and hear a woman's talk on prohibition. Thk Herald is not much afraid of successful contradiction when it remarks that no town, from the pine forests of Maine to the snow-capped mountains of Colorado, can boast of as many handsome young ladies as Burlingame. New corn is coming to town this week the best seen in this market for several years. It sells for twenty-five cents.

The rop in this section is the largest since W. P. Beverly thinks it will average about forty-five bushels to the acre. Read the handsome advertisement of Olivers' general merchandise store. Oliver Brothers are having a very nice trade, the result of good goods and low prices.

Everything exactly as represented at their store and goods marked down to the lowest figure. Call and see. When a fellow goes around with one eye bandaged people generally conclude that the unfortunate possessor has been calling somebody a pet name and got the worst of it. That is not the reason why Lute Morgan has one of his eyes tied up. He has one of Job's comforters in the corner of it.

A sweet-faced girl baby came direct from heaven Saturday morning and stopped at the home of P. D. Turner. She was weighed and tipped the scales at ten pounds. Mr.

and Mrs. Turner have concluded to adopt her. The Herald welcomes the young lady to Burlingame. An attempt was made Tuesday night to crack the safe in the office of Wm. Smith Son.

Entrance was made to the office fromone of the south windows. A hole was drilled into one of the safe doors near the combination lock and powder used to blow the door open. The charge was not sufficient, however, and aside from slight damage to one of the safe doors no harm was done. Attention is invited to the advertisement of the Bank of Burlingame. This bank, although but recently organized, is already doing a fine business.

The officers and board of directors are well known citizens and among the most substantial men of this city and vicinity. Visit the new bank in its new and handsome quarters in the Shepard opera house block. IT. W. Filley Son still head the procession in Osage county in their line of business.

Filley Son deal also in wagons, buggies, carts, harness, etc. It will pay you to visit the store of Filly Son.

A large number of Burlingame republicans attended the political rally last at Harveyville.

The Herald wishes Thomas success in his new field and congratulates the citizens of Madison upon their good fortune in the acquisition of so nice a young man to their business and social circles. STORE iWILL SXTJLTST TOTJ WITH School Notes. If one wishes quite a small conception of what the confusion of tongues at the building of the Tower of Babel was like, he should approach the school building during opening exercises. A different song is being sung by each room, and with the piano joining in, produces a conglomeration of sounds only equalled by the New York produce exchange. During the past week a number of pu pils who have been detained at home on account of the fall work, have entered the school permanently.

Eva Thomas entered the junior class Monday. Eli Carson, who has been spending the summer in the western part of the state, has returned and taken up his work again in the middle class. Charles Harper is a new scholar in Mr. Easter's room. Columbian day, October 21st, is a legal holiday.

Mrs. M. R. Doty and Miss Mabel Wood were callers last week. Mr.

Cournock, of Indiana, called at the high school room Friday. A Social Time. Communicated. While our respected neighbor, E. S.

Niles, was down town on business Monday, his premises and house were taken possession of by a goodly number' of his friends of this city and surrounding country. To his surprise, when he came home, he found that the cause of the gathering was his fiftieth birthday, likewise the twenty-sixth anniversary of the marriage of E. S. Niles and Miss Emma Gates. During the greetings and congratulations of all, and the chat about the weather, lawyers, doctors and some "polyticks," there was fished from pail, basket and mysterious-looking bundle the good things of Kansas, until the table was loaded to the satisfactien of any Kansas man or woman, be their appetite ever so fastidious.

With music, song and chat, the time passed merrily until we were summoned to gather around the well-laden board, when, with Brother Jackson Wood, we joined in thanks to the Giver without a single calamity howl. Then all began to take something for the stomach's sake, not even Brother Hiram recommending homoeopathic doses on this occasion. all were satisfied, we adjourned to the parlor, and, among other things, discussed the good qualities of the different candidates for office, for in the happy frame of mind existing we could not indulge in remarks on their shortcomings, unless it had been to remind Mr. Grover of hisover 500 pension vetoes, until the hands of the clock reminded Comrade Wood, who, you know, never allows himself to be late, that it was time to go. With many good wishes and hopes of other like happy days, we parted, with the one regret that Grandma Niles was sck in bed and could not be present, and as Mrs.

Wood would not leave Mother to the care of others, she was not present at the double merrymaking. Columbus Day Programme. The following is the programme, subject to change, for the exercises in this city on Columbus diy, Friday, October 21, 1892: Proclamation Mayor F. M. Nelson.
