Other People,

Philadelphia proudly claims that she has '22,000 more women than men. Assoon as the doctors gave Wattersbn up, Watterson refused to go up and is now quite well again.

It is stated as a fact that a western congressman has won $40,000 at poker nee tho present session began. He is probably always paired.

Talk about "stealing the coppers off a doad nigger's eyes!" A Cleveland (O.) undertaker has been convicted of stealing one of the eyes of a corpse.

Gen. Sheridan is prouder of |his four little daughters than he is of his record. Romping with the little ones keeps him younger and sensible. Gen. Sherman is not so fond of children. He likes them older.

"Now that I am getting old and "can climb the hills no longer," says Mr. Itnskin, "my chief pleasure is to go to the theatre." Theatrogoing with him, he say.M, "is one of the pleasures that havo least worn out."

A New Jersey farmer thought to reform his young daughter, who would go out nights, by frightening her. He .succeeded so well that a remarkable bright girl has become insane. The fool-killer has plenty to do yet before he goes into permanent retirement.

A Now Jersey gipsy predicts that Thomas A. Edison will astonish the world with inventions that will put all his previous achievements into the shade. Tho old crone bases her prophecy on the fact that his bride, Miss Mina Miller, was the seventh child of a woaltliy father.

A West Virginia farmer was swindled out of $700 a few days ago in a novel manner. One of a party of gypsies told the agriculturist that if ho would place $25 In a certain old stump he would find it double In the morning. The farmer tried it and tho scheme worked. The next ovoning he placed §700 of his savings in the stump,.but has not seen the money since.

An audacious young man put his arm around a young woman who sat in the same pew with him duringservice in the United Brethren Church at Fort Wayne on Sunday night, and kissed her. She was so pleased that sho laughed right out in meeting, and others joined with her. These young people are to be Indicted for disturbing a religious meeting.

Gen. and Mrs. Van Cleve of St. Paul celebrated their golden wedding last week. Among the presents was an oldfashioned gold watch. Fifty years ago ileut. Van Cleve gave it to his young bride. The young folks were poor, and It name about that the watch had to be sold. The buyer kept it carefully and urprised the veteran and his wife by presenting it to them on the fiftieth anniversary of their marriage.

Tho Rev. Dr. Maelaren of the Central Presbyterian Church in St, Paul awoke and saw a burglar creeping Into the room with a revolver in his hand. The Doctor reached over the aide of his bed, picked up a small stick, and, pointing it directly at the intruder, said: "Now, if you donH get out of here I'll shoot you dead. I would hate to shoot yon on Sunday, and disturb the quiet of the day, but if you don't start you area dead man." The burglar turned on his heels, ran through the house, and escaped.

VPRIGHT FOLDING BEDS Are coming Into general use with people that can aflbrd them, as they are such a convenience and are easily handled. A child can operate them. You should call at E. D.

Lake Michigan Rising at the Bate of Four Inches Every .Year.

It is reported that Lake Michigan is rising at the rate of four inches every year. Chicago is built on an immense marsh and at this rate many of her principal streets may be submerged before many years, indeed it is reported that at certain times debris from the lake covers some of the roads about Lincoln, park.

It is about 320 miles from Chicago to St. Louis, about the same distance from St. Louis to Kansas City. It is just 321 miles from Kansas City to Wa-Keeney, Kansas, and 319 miles from Wa-Keeney, Kansas, to Denver, Col. A party of Chicago merchants and capitalists computing the above distances, conceived the idea of making Wa-Keeney the main distributing point between Kansas City and Denver. The site is a beautiful one, being a high, rolling prairie, and unlike most Kansas towns, is pleasing to the eye. Near the town is a quarry of fine building stone, which can be quarried at a mere nominal cost, and can be furnished in the town cut in squares ready for the building at the small cost of $6.00 per cord. This stone is gray and soft when first quarried but soon hardens. There is another building stone of a beautiful flesh color, finer than the gray but more expensive, 't

The United States "land office for part of the counties of Sherman, Thomas, Sheridan, Graham and Rooks, and all of Trego, Gove, St. John, Wallace, Greeley, Wichita, Scott, Lane and Ness counties is situated at Wa-Keeney. In spite of the most earnest endeavors the land office is about three days behind with their work all the time. They file from 75 to 100 claims daily, yet there is 1,500,000 acres of unclaimed land in this district.

There are six hotels which are crowded to their utmost capacity all the time. Two banks and a number ofi business houses are doing a good business. WaKeeney is the largest border town between Kansas City and Denver, and seems destined to carry out the idea for which she was founded. Of late a party of Wellington capitalists have invested largely and taken quite an active part in building up the town.

Charters have been granted for a railread from Smith Center through WaKoeney to El Passo, and from Wellington to Wa-Keeney. These two roads when finished, together with the Union Pacific railroad now running through Wa-Keeney, will furnish ample means of transporiation. To this add the fact of fine building stone, a beautiful sight, a rich country, fine water and a healthy atmosphere, to say the least .you have something more than a mere, fancy dream. _____________

The main advantage of the "QUICK MEAL" Stove over all others is the simplicity and ease with which it can be opened, closed and regulated. There are no thumb screws to turn to burn the flngers with, and to confuse people. Tho patent lever valve is a "dead open and shut." When the little knob is pushed over to tho word "Open" it is open, when it is pushed to tho word "Closed" it is closed, and no mistake. That is all there is to it. No one can use it wrong.
