Letter From Kansas REPUBLICAN LEDGER: On March 11th with our faces turned westward, we set sail for "Sunny 888.

We left Indiana clad in "The beautiful enow;" when we arrived in Wichita, two days later, we found the street sprinkler making its rounds. We were made to exclaim "How different How tan it be Alexander Campbell, the great evangelist, is said to be the author of "The garden of the world," which he applied to Central Illinois, but a man who has travelled in Kansas during the various seasons, will not risk his reputation by eulogizing any State east of the Mississippi. If you would see "The Garden of the World" in all its variations of upland and valley, take a trip to south-western Kansas. The country is gorgeous with its wealth of soil and products of grain, grasses and timber growth. Every town is on the boom with Wichita leading them all.

I am still infatuated with this grand country but my wife sighs for the home we left behind. Indiana people are merous in this section and we often meet old acquaintances. We see John Martin, of Noblesville, every few days. He has a nice farm and is cozily fixed for his old days. I have Just returned from a trip to the "Far West," in the new county of Comanche, this State.

Settlers begun to locate there in the spring of 1884, now every quarter of land is taken. On the 3rd day of June 1884, Cold water, the county seat, was platted for a town site- -it now has 700 inhabitants and is still booming. I invested in some land in Comanche couuty and also built a business house in the town of Reeder. Reeder is located between Mule and Kiwao Creeks and is surrounded by a beautiful body of farming land. The soil is deep and from evIdence of their present growing crop, is very productive.

The town plat for Reeder was filed with the county clerk the first of last month and Judging from the progress already made in the way of buildings will soon be oneof the liveliest towns in the State. It is a grand sight for a "raw Hoosier" to look over a "treeless plain." AB 1 far as your eye can reach there is nothing to greet your vision but sod shanties, prairie grass, antelope, coyotes, prairiechickens, jack-rabbits, and last but best of all is to see a full- fledged prairie-dog town, with hundreds of them barking at the same time. But I am growing To parties who are askibg my advice about coming to Kansas I would say, and make your own observations, then you will be better satisfied." As to crops in this section, corn, oats. and grass are very promising, wheat will only be a half-crop. We were very glad to have our old friend, Doll Evans, visit 118 last week.

We would say to all our friends who may chance to come this way, do not forget to "ring the street- car bell" for 227, south Main street. J. N. DOOLEY. Wichita, July 1st, 1885.

A Common Sense Idea. Farmers and other out-door workers have long suffered from the too rapid wearing outof the soles of their Rubber Boots. Dirt and gravel when wet, offer the best possible tools for cutting and and grinding away the rubber sole, and to this destructive agency Rubber Boots are continually exposed, from the very nature of their uses. Some two years ago, however, the "Candee" Rubber of New Haven, hit upon the idea of making their boot soles Double Thick in that part which undergoes the greatest amount of wear. -By their invention the extra rubber is added on the ball just where it is needed, and nowhere else.

So that while the boot is increased one hundred fold in durability, the weight is but very slightly increased. This improvement known as the Double Thick Ball, is advertised in our columns by Messre Carnahan, Hanna Fort Wayne, "Candee" Distributing Agents, and those of our readers who are interested in the matter, can investigate for themselves by examining the goods on sale at those of our stores which deal in Rubber Boots. Forecasts for July. let to 8d very hot with local storms. 4th and 5th clear and cooler.

5th to 8th hot, with local storms. It will be generally dry from the 8th to 20th, with liability to local rains about the 12th and 18th. From the 20th to the end of the month there will be very hot weather with much rain and severe storms about the 23d to 29th. The storms of July will be local, except those after the 20th. The local storms will all follow the same track.

Those who are in the dry belt may look for copious rain about the 23d or 24th. The hottest days will be about the 6th, 12th; 18th, 23d and 29th. The coolest ones will be about the 8th, 14th, 20th, 25th and 31st. Earthquakes will be likely to occur about the 6th, 12th, 18th, 24th and 30th. son Trowbridge, Frank Dempster man, Miss Dora Read Goodale, Mr.

Randall in the Augusta Chronicle relates the following: When Anna Dickinson, a few years Ago, was lecturlag at Baltimore with poor success, which caused ber to have small respect for what she considered the culture or appreciation of she spent her reposeful hours in a room which she had engaged from lady who took the better class of. boarders. One night Miss Dickineon could not sleep because of a noise overbead resembling the restless movement of a nervous person, who kept up a persistent hauling to and fro of heavy trunks, or what sounded that way. At last Miss Dickinson worn out by the racket, left her apartment and went to the landing over bead. She knocked at the door of the room from which the disturbance proceeded, but no answer was returned.

Boldly entering, she was confronted with darkness only that and nothing more." Peering more closely, she became satisfied that the room was not inhabited, and yet there was no doubt of the noise made there, which began again as soon as she returned to her own quarters. Next day she mentionthe matter to the landlady, who said: "Oh, that noise is often manifested. A young girl committed suicide in that room, and it is the tradition and superstition of this house that it is haunted." Miss Dickinson was silent, but her mind was made up as to the course she would pursue that night. Sure enough, when she Was about to retire, the movement! of the heavy objects began up stairs. Bible in hand, the brave New England woman ascended to the upper story and sat down in a chair which remained in the spectral ber.

She addressed the invisible stranger, and said: "I am sorry for you and would help you if I could. I will read some passages from the word of God, and pray that if you be unhappy there shall come pardon and She did read indeed and pray, not one time but many times. The cessation of the noise was to betoken that this ion between flesh and spirit had proved efficacious. No further discord or commotion occured, and Anna Dickinson telt satisfied that she had, under God's Providence, solaced the lot of one poor the underworld. How Yale Disappointed Hendricks.

A writer of gossip in the New York Times says: "'Though the newspapers have not touched upon the subject, have it upon good authority that Vice President Hendricks has just suffered a pretty keen disappointment, not to say embarrassment. When he was invited to deliver the annual address before the Yale Law School it was not unnatural that he should see something more in the invitation than the mere opportunity to discourse learnedly before a littie band of students. Two years ago Secretary Bayard went up to Yale from Delaware, delivered this same address, and was honored with the title of LL. D. Last year Gov.

Hoadley Journeyed thence from Ohio, took the Law School platform as Mr. Bayard bad done and in the same way accepted the LL. The rule stared Mr. Hendricks in the tace. He had no reason to doubt that the same bonor was awaiting him.

Indeed it was said by one in a position to know that it was pretty directly intimated to the Indiana statesman that his honorary degree waited only for his acceptance. But Mr. Hendricks discovered soon after his arrival in the college town that his expectations had blossomed in vain. Yale's corporation, for reasons best known within the inner circle, had selected others for her honors. The rule which had given dignity to Bayard and Hoadly and others was broken.

It is not recorded that Mr. Hendricks used language that was ani-: mated over the matter, but a gentleman who knows asserts that the Vice President did not seem to consider it an infliction to stay up till 1 o'clock in the morning in order to get an out-of-town train that would hurry him over to Boston. Two portraits of marked interest, in the July Century, are the frontispiece picture of Frederic Mistral, and the full-page portrait, after a daguerreotype, of Henry Clay. Not less striking than the portraits are the articles 80- companying them. George Bancroft contributes a vivid sketch of Clay's personality, and Alphonse Daudet writes of his friend Mistral, the Provencal poet.

Daudet's sketch is as valuable for its autobiogrophicel interest, as for its intimate account of the life and character of mistral, who was born a peasant and has always lived a country life. Of timely importance is the Indo-Afghan paper "The Gate of India," by W. L. Fawett. It deals only briefly with die present political situation, its chief interest being the way it shows that the evident Russian trend toward the Khyber Pass- -which has always been.

known as the Gate of India is only one of the long, succession of advances from the direction of Afganistan upon the wealth of India, from. before the time of Alexander the Great's conquest down to 1750, the year that the founder of Afghan empire invaded India. A description of "George Elliot's County, -the scenes of her country. life and her novels, -by Miss Rose Kingsley, the daughter of Canon Kingsley, is the opening illustrated paper. Others, are Dr.

Edward Eggleston's profusely, illustrated Colonies," paper one of on the "Social most popular of his series; and an account explorations of the late "Frank Hation in North Borneo," by his father, Joseph Hatton. Two short stories accompany the installments of Mr. Howells's "Rise of Silas Lapbam" and Henry Jame's -they are Frank R. Stockton's continuation of his famous story, "The Lady, or the Tiger?" under the title, "The Discourager of Hesitancy," and another illu-trated story by Ivory Black (T. A.

Janvier) entitled "Roberson's Medium." The war papers of the July number are profusely illustrated, and comprise a description of Confederate pursuit during McClellan's Change of Base," by General D. H. Hill; "RearGuard Fighting at Savage's Station," by General W. B. Franklin; "The Seven Days fight about Richmond," by General James Longstreet, and points of minor interest in the "Memoranda." The poems of the number are by William H.

Hayne, Anstin Dobson, Richard Watson Gilder, Miss Fdith M. Thomas, and Robert Underwood Johnson; and in "Bric-a-Brac," by Robert- Miss Charlotte Flake Bates. In "Topics of the Time' are editorials entitled Twenty years after the War "The Blindness of Legislators," and "Dr. Edward Eggleston's Historical Papers."

STRAWTOWN STROKES. Harvest is here. Death has again visited our community and called away loved one who was much esteemed and by all who knew her, for her many good qualities of mind and heart. Mrs. Frank Conway died last Thursday morning.

She leaves a husband and four small children, with a large circle of relatives and friends to mourn their loss, which, without doubt, was her eternal gain. Her last words were: "I want you all to krow that all is Funeral services by Rev. Eli Davis, pastor of the M. E. church at this place.

Interment at Strawtown cemetery. James Groves hitched his horse to his new buggy last Sunday, and was about ready to step aboard for an evening ride when the horse, a young one, although quite gentle broke loose from the rack and started, turning the vehicle completely upside down and ran down the street at a rapid gait completely demolishing the buggy and skinning his own legs considerably. We made a short visit to Hobbs, Tipton county, last Saturday and found that thriving little town in very good shape and business quite brisk, with good many improvements in progress. It is situated about ten miles due northof here on the L. E.

W. railway and is about half way between Tipton and Elwood. It is a village of some note, being only about four years old, yet has a first-class saw and planing mill, two stores, a large elevator, boarding house blacksmith shop, shoe shop, barber shop etc, etc. Tipton county is the county of ditches, but it could not well get along without them.
