Boys get your bells ready. While one of Mr. Hughes' men was haul ing a load of corn fodder from his farm south of the Wakarusa, with four horses, some boys discharged a gun which fright ened the team, the driver, loader and rack were left by the roadside. The horses ran home with the wagon, a distance of three miles, without doing any tarther damage One of our neighbors purchased some hogs Monday, in driving them home one of the hogs became stubborn, the dnver let his angry passions rise and the hog did likewise. A tussle ensued.

The hog tore the farmer's pants in the scuflle, this injured the man'i feelings, because he wore them at election, consequently his ire knew no bounds, he got out his pocket knife and commenced the carving act by taking this undue advantage. Mr. Hog was vanquished and taken home a corpse. But say Billy there is a law that says something about cruelty to animals, did you ever hear of it? About noon Dec. lSth a set of trucks and necessary material was unloaded in the church yard for the purpose of bearing away our little white ehapel that has stood so many years for our place of worship.

Fearing the outside world may think that our community is retrogressive it might be well to say that the church is situated in the garden spot of Kansas between two historical towns, Lawrence and Eudora. Many of the best clergymen of the age have filled the pulpit, our best friends have surrounded the altar, and thousands of our citizens have contributed to its support. But suffice it to say that with over twenty churches in about four miles distance has caused the former congregations to be divided, yea subdivided, until all were gone, so to speak. The church will be transformed into a carriage shed for the good that it has done. "The weather this fall and winter so far, has been all that the farmers could ask to get their farm work doae.

LAWRENCE, DKCKMBKIC 21 Republican candidates arc putting S3 numerous that the It -publican state central committee ought to rrg iaterthem. As THE Trusty, published by con victs at the state is a "rat" office, all good priutcrs are warned to stay away from there. Gronlund, the socialist lecturer, was refused the use of the churches of Topeka. He says that be has vis ited 23 cities this year and Topeka is the first where he could not lecture in a church. The new mayor of Chicago is an enthusiastic and stalwart Democrat He went in on the Democratic plat form and not for personal reasons, and he is proud of it because he says it is a triumph for Democracy.

Wayne McVeIagh's nomination as minister to Italy was not hung up in the senate, confirmation following within two days. Mr. McVeagh is in eyery way fitted for the position and no criticism of his appointment can be made on that score; but there are plenty of democrats who are quite as capable as Mr. McVeigh. The fact that Lawrence has no fur ther liability for the University bonds is clearly set forth in a careful opin ion submitted to the legislature by attorney uenerai ives, which is published in this issue The Ga zette.

The bonds were issued by an unconstitutional act and were invalid from their inception. Neither the city nor the University is responsible for them. The legislature made the blunder and the legislature is the only party to remedy it. Like most of us at this time, Uncle Sam is hard up. Secretary Carlisle's report shows a serious condition of affairs in the treasury, which de xnands relief in some way.

Expenses must be reduced and revenues in creased. When the Republicans took hold of affairs after President Cleve land's last administration they in sugurated a system of layish ex penditure which soon disposed of the surplus. Once set in motion such a policy is not easily or suddenly checked. The Governor ia being urged by many populists to call in Labor Com missioner Todd whose continual rows are discreditable to a state official and naturally reflect upon the adminis tration. Todd has an unfortunate way of getting into trouble, person ally, and Gov.

Lewelling would do well to find some good man for his place. W. II. T. Wakefield of this city should have been appointed in the first place, and if a change is made we trust the governor will rec ognize.

Mr. Wakefield's long services and arduous labor for the reform moyement, besides his ability and in tegrity. There is not a cleaner, or more deserving man in the peoples party than this old veteran, Thomp Wakefield. To Subscribers.

A. Williams Lynn, Mass. For the Good of Others JRev. Mr. Williams Heartily Endorses Hood's Sarsaparilla.

We are pleased to present this from Rev. A. A. Williams, of the Sillsbee street Christian Church, Lynn, Mass. I see no reason why a clergyman, more than a layman, who knows whereof he speak9, should hesitate to approve an Articie of Merit and worth, from which he or his family have been signally benefited, and whose commendation may serve to extend those benefits to others by increasing their confidence.

My wife has for many years been a sufferer from severe Nervous Headache for which she found little help. She has tried many things that promised well but performed little. Last fall a friend gave her a bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla. It seems surprising what simply one bottle could and did do for her. The attacks of headaehe decreased in number and were les3 violent in their intensity, while her general health has been im- roved.

Her appetite has also been better, torn our experience with Hood's Sarsaparilla I have no hesitation in endorsing its merits." A. A. Williams. HOPO'S PlLLS are the best family cathartic, ii tie nd effective. Try a box.
