According to tbe Topeka State Journal a few of the land leagne cases in Allen county will be Inves tigated. W. C. Perry, of Kansas City, has been appointed to bring the cases before the United States supreme court. Whatever disposal of the cases Is made this time will be final, it is said.

All towns get taken In by fakes occasionally and Humboldt Is no exception, bat it Is bad when Just one citizen has to bear the loss, as was done In two cases within two weeks. Watch out for these fellows who come along In their Innocent way and try to beguile you Into a partnership with them. Better pad die your own canoe. Mr. and Mrs.

Jos. Calbertson, of Iola, celebrated their sixtieth wedding anniversary last Saturday at their home in that city. They have lived In Allen county since 1880. and have a host of friends who will wish them many more anoiver saries of the happy event. They are each 81 years old and wen mar ried In 1842.

We acknowledge the receipt of an invitation to attend tbe com mencement exercises of the Evans ton, high school May 29, 1902. Miss Lillian Forrest Hamm Is one of the graduates. She Is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J.

C. Hamm, formerly of Humboldt, and has the congratulations of many friends who know she is deserving of the graduate's diploma. The electric line between Cha nute, Humboldt and Iola is said to be a sure thing, and that It will be speedily built and In operation: If its going to be a go there is no reason why it should not be pushed through this season. Its early com pletion would mean a great build log boom for Humboldt next sea son, for people have to have houses to live in, and there would be a whole lot of them come here to live. We are informed that Wm.

EN lers, who came here several months ago and engaged in tbe carriage and buggy trimming and painting busi ness left very suddenly one day last week. He also Iet a few people In Humboldt "holding the sack." In other words be beat J. E. Johnson out of about 1200, which he had put in the business as a partner. Others were fleeced of smaller sums.

Mr. Johnson and the county officers are trying hard to locate him and have blm brought back, and if he suc ceeds, and we hope he will, Mr. EI lars wiil likely be put out of "busi ness" for awhile. The new Santa Fe time table goes into effect Sunday, June 1st, and it wiil be found in the regular place in this paper. There Is no change In tbe time of the old trains, A new morning passenger train, No.

208, is added and goes north at 6:45 a. m. and No. 207 Bouth at 8:55 p. m.

None of the freight trains carry passengers except 220, which goes north at p. m. The new morning passenger gives a person over five hours in Kansas City and at this season makes the round trip in daylight. It will be a great convenience to thoss wishing to make a hurried trip to Kansas City. Antone Bauer died at his home near Savon burg Sunday evening, May 18th, after an illness of over a year.

The deceased was formerly a resident of Humboldt and was welt known here, and had many old friends woo will be sorry to hear of his death.

Kellogg Newspaper Co. This entire trip was made on the Katy railway. Last year it was on the Santa Fe. The boys reported a splendid outing and warm receptions at all their stopping places About all the different branches of business were represented, and these yearly trips no doubt do much good, as It makes the retail merchants and wholesale merchants better acqoain ted and brings them into closer trade relations with each other. They went from here to Chanute and then on to Parsons, where their train was transfered to the Parsons and Pacific branch for their final run Into Kansas VWy.

Boy Drowued. The floating body of a young boy was found In the Neosho river, about three miles north of Humboldt, last' Saturday morning by some partirs from Iola who were flhing. The body was brought to Humboldt and officers notified. It was learned that a boy answering his description haJ been drowned at Neosho Falls on Wednesday. His name was Floy Saferite and he was about twelve years old.

He had been In swimming and Is supposed to have taken the cramps, and al though efforts were made to save him he drowned, and was carried swiftly dowh stream by tbe raging Neosho, which was about nut of its banks In many places. The body was likely raised by the thunder during the storms about that time. Undertaker Leitzbach prepared the body for shlpmeqt and it was sent to Neosho Falls on the 10:08 Katy train Saturday. The father of the boy is an engineer In D. W.

Too bad for the Democrats. President Palma, of Cuba, has is sued his first message. It is an able document, and he urges the most friendly relations with the United States, who so gallantly assisted in Cuba's freedom, for which he re turns thanks from the new republic. The Republican State convention at Wichita this week was largely attended. There was over four thousand in attendance, including delegates, candidates, wire-pullers and sight-seers.

It was a rousing and enthusiastic meeting of the Grand Old Party. Secretary Coburn's latest crop re port says there is a great improve ment in wheat prospects. There are 3,896,148 acres of wheat In Kansas, and he estimates the total yield at 50,000,000 bushels. He places the condition of Alien county wheat at 98 per cent, and corn the same. The corn throughout tbe State is in good condition.

Good Words for Humboldt. The special correspondent of tbe Kansas City Journal, who was with tbe Commercial Club of that city on its recent trip, sent in the following dispatch in regard to the visit here last Saturday: Humboldt. Kansas, May 24. (Special.) Carriages were in waiting today to carry the Kansas City merchants uptown. They all went up and spent an hour visiting the trade.

Humboldt is one of the solid towns of this part of Kansas, and is improving steadily. It is famous for its paving brick. The merchants are live, wideawake men. and their stores are kept up in fine shape. The streets are paved with gravel and are as fine as the macadam boulevards in Kansas City.

Wheat will make about two-thirds of a crop in this locality, and the prospects are bright for a big corn crop. The Neosho river Is running bank fall, but the dykes are protecting the bottom farms from overflow. A Lesson in Health.

Another ridiculous food fad has been branded by the most competent authorities. They have dispelled the silly notion that one kind of food is needed for brain, another for muscles, and still another for bones. A correct diet will not only nourish a particular part of the body, but It will sustain every other part. Yet, however good your food may be, its nutriment is destroyed by Indigestion or dyspepsia.
