This practice not only mars the looks of our city, but stops up the gutters so that the water cannot get to the sewers. The practice of raking up leaves and leaving them in the gutters must also cease, as the leaves wash over the catch basins and the first freeze that comes forms a coating of ice over the catch basins and the water remains in the street and the city is blamed. Gutters and catch basins should be kept clean of leaves and trash. If this is done the necessity of wading through the water and slush will be much lessened. Acting under instructions of the mayor any one found dumping ashes in the street will be proseGEORGE MUSTARD, City Marshal.

CUPID WAS ACTIVE ALL DAY WEDNESDAY

Four Young Couples Procure Licenses and Have Knots Tied by Ministers and Squire. County Clerk Perkins and |xie deputy, Miss Eva Moore, had a busy day Wednesday in the marriage license department. There were four couples on hand at about the same time and each couple after procuring the license was married before they left town. Rev. Harper had the best of the bargain, two of the couples applying at the parsonage for the ceremony. He joined in matrimonial bonds Mr. Walter Frank Zimmerman, a carpenter, of Remington, and Miss Lillian May Turner, also of that town. A little later he was called upon to marry Harvey Roy Keen and Miss Yernice Alice Bill daughter of John Bill, of Jordan township. The groom is a young farmer and they will reside of? a farm near Goodland. Rev. Winn, of ' the Christian church, married a Gillam township couple, namely, Frank Orvel Buckley and Miss Effie Dell Bisher. The groom is a farmer and they will reside on a Gillam township farm. Squire Irwin suspended other active business long enough Wednesday afternoon to pledge in marriage Luther Tow and Miss Mary Elizabeth Rees, of Gillam township. The young folks were all mighty nice looking and the spirit of Christmas joy beamed with effulgence from their countenances. There will be four mighty happy honeymoons in progress at Christmas time.

JOSEPH V. PARKISON DIED WEDNESDAY

Body of Aged Father of Mrs. Walter V. Porter Will Be Brought From Kansas For Buriel. Joseph V. Parkison died Wednesday at Bucklin, Kans., following a decline of several years, during which time he suffered from kidney and bladder disease. His daughter, Mrs. Walter V. Porter, who visited her parents at Bucklin, during the fall, has been ’ receiving almost daily advices from the family during the past ten days and each brought word that he was nearing the end and they were, therefore, prepared for the message received Wednesday evening, which informed them that he had passed away that day. Mr. Parkison is survived by his wife and six children, one son and five daughters. The son, Wallace, is a bachelor and has always resided with his parents. The daughters are, Mrs. Walter V. Porter, of Rensselaer; Mrs. R. Bruce Porter, of Mt. Vernon, S. Dak.; Mrs. Alfred Collins, of Bucklin, Kans.; Mrs. Dr. Milligan, of Garnet, Kans.; and Mrs. Frank Yeoman, 6f Kaw City, Okla. Some of the relatives have been with him during the past week or more, including Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Porter, who will probably accompany the remains to Rensselaer. Mrs. Parkison, the aged widow, is enjoying quite good health and will be able to make the trip here also, and Wallace and Mrs. Milligan are also expected to accompany the body here, leaving Bucklin at 2 o’clock this Thursday afternoon and probably arriving Friday night or Saturday morning. The funeral will • probably take place Sunday afternoon at 2 o’clock, but complete arrangements will await the arrival of the remains. Joseph V. Parkison was a native of Ohio, having been born in that state on May 16th, 1829, being just two years younger than his brother, Addison Parkison, who died several years ago. His father, John G. Parkison, came to Jasper county in 1837, when Joseph was a boy 8 years of age. They located in Barkley township 'and he continued a resident of this county until the spring of 1903, when he located at Bucklin, Kans., where he has since resided with the exception of several months he spent here about a year ago. He was one of the rugged pioneers of Jasper county and helped to develop Jasper county and lived to see it change Jrom a wilderness to a land of progress and happiness. The old Parkison home in Barkley township will be remembered by all the old settlers and many of them will recall the days when “Uncle" Joe was a conspicuous figure in the activities of the pioneer days.

JASPER COUNTY AT CHICAGO SHOW

(Continued from Page One.),

bred pullets, securing cash premiums of about $7 and advertising of inestimable value. In addition to this he was offered SBOO for his winning pen but did not accept it. He believes in keeping the best for hii% self. He took orders for 19 settings of eggs at $lO per setting and will be able in the spring to receive this price for about all the eggs he can spare from his championship pens. Mr. Hershman exhibited Black Langshans and Bronze Turkeys. He received one first and one fourth on the chickens and three firsts, four seconds, two thirds and one fourth on his turkeys. Mr. Hershman spent but one day, last Sunday, at the show and does not know what his prizes are, but he was very much elated to have won so decisive a victory in the turkey classes, having virtually cleaned up on everything. Mr. Hershman advertises in poultry journals and has no difficulty in selling his turkey eggs at $1 each and his Black Langshan eggs at $5 a setting of 15 eggs. The priza awards at the big show in Chicago will augment the selling considerably. Jesse Snyder had some Barred Rocks at the show and they were given much favorable attention. He was offered $35 for one pullet, not yet a year old. The pullet was entered'in the pullet class but its appearance of maturity class caused the judges to pass it up, although he was told that it would have won in the hen class. The Rensselaer show is doubtless the best of any show held here. There is a splendid variety "and the classes are better than before, showing the success of careful breeding. The attendance has so Jar not been as large as it should have been, but it is believed that many will visit the show tonight and Friday and Saturday. Wednesday nighjt a pair of good chickens were given away and tonight a turkey and a pair of chickens and a turkey and chickens Friday and Saturday nights. E. YanArsdel go# the chickens “Wednesday evening. H. A. Pickett, Of Green town, who has been the judge here at previous shows and who is recognized as one of best poultry judges in the country, came to Rensselaer from Chicago, where he whs one of the ten judges in that big show. He has completed the awards here. He says that the quality of the birds here is very high and that he notices a marked improvement in poultry here during the last few years. The importance of the poultry industry is such that these exhibits should have the encouragement of every farmer and poultry raiser in the county, for the good stock is the real paying stock and it can be raised-just as cheaply as the “dunghill” breeds that were so common years ago. Let every person in Rensselaer visit the show and prove their appreciation of the effort to procure the very best poultry for Jasper county.
