F. PHILLIPS. Clerk. LIU our trade mark on as below: Some folks act odd just so they will be noticed. Age doesn't qualify lots of people for places the hold.

Some folks desire for notoriety often gets them into trouble. The pleasantest people are not those who always agree with yon There are lots of nice places that do not have very good names. It hurts peoples feelings to be laughed at even if there is cause for it. Men are often as sensitive about their age as women are said to be. There has been lots of prospect for rain in Lawrence, but it hasn't come yet.

Some people are never happy unless they are getting somebody else into trouble. some men are never able to do any thing without stopping to tell everybody about it. Some men's unsupported word is worth a great deal more than others sworn statements. It's so dusty now that very few people in Lawrence care to go buggy riding in the evening. There are few people who do not make mistakes, but there are lots that think they never do.

The person who always says things to please others, is apt to say very little of any acco unt. Same people decry their own abilities in order to get others to say something nice about them. It would surprise you to see the big crowds that will gather to hear a street fakir in Lawrence. 'The usual jrriday afternoon racing matinee will take place this week at the Driving Park track. It is often that the people who are the easiest to find fault with that find the most fault with others.

Some folks appreciate honest criticism and profit by it, but there are a great many mors who do not. There are said to be some joints run ning in the outskirts of Lawrence in sev eral different directions. Most people who think they are always lucky find out that they are not when they go to buying lottery tickets. In east Lawrence the young men turn out tne street lamps wnen tney go to see a girl that lives within a block of one, There is a good deal of satisfaction in Beeing a man fail in something that you have undertaken and not made a success, A republican campaign glee club has been organized in La wrence and is now practicing for work in the county this fall. Most young men could learn lots of things from their sisters, but they would rather go some other place for the same information.

When people have very little regard for their own accomplishments, they ougnt not to expect otners to tnink a great deal of them even if there is the best evidence that they should. Some people think they are inflicting an awful punishment on these they dis. like by not speaking to them, but it is very often the case that the others are just as glad they are not spoken to. The people who live on Kentucky street are very much annoyed to think that the patent medicine man should be allowed to move right down in front of their homes and draw bis crowds of peo ple around there to annoy them in the evening. Tney tnink tnere are lots of other places where no one would be dis turbed at all.

I Event a The State Board of Railroad tommU-, aloaera Comee to Lawnoce. Messrs W.

D. Vincent and P. Max-son, of the state board of railway commissioners, were in Lawrence this morning to hear the complaint the citizens of the county had to make against the Car-bondale branch of the Northwestern railroad and to see what could be done toward again securing its operation. The meeting was held at the court house and was attended by a large number of the business men of Lawrence and of the people who live along the line and want it operated. Tne case was opened by a statement from Dr.

Summerfield as to the ownership of the road He gave what evidence there was here for that purpose, and this was supplemented by wnat others had learned. Then the business men and farmers who were inconvenienced by the failure of the road to run told the loss it was to them in every way. Mr. Russell gave the cutting off of his eleyator and Mr. Henley and Mr.

Gould and others told of the large amount of trade they lost by the lack of transportation over the line. Then the farmers liying along or near the road related how much loss it was to them in shipping not only their cattle and hogs, but all kinds of farm products. After discussing this matter pretty thoroughly a way to compel the opera tion was next taken up. After some talk on this point Judge Geo. Barker was called oa and stated that if the road was a part of the Union Pacific system, as it seemed to be, that he thought the proper and cheapest way to do was to go be fore Judge Caldwell of the United States court and make a statement of all the facts and necessities of the case, and that if it was as seemed to be there would be no doubt about getting relief of some kind.

This plan was looked upon with favor by the railroad commissioners who thought that if the road waa in the hands of the Union Pacific that was the only thing that could be done by them The commissioners listened to the case till when an adjournment was taken. Mr. Poehler aod others inter ested in the undertaking will continue to push the matter and if it is faund that the board of railway commissioners can grant no relief then some steps will be taken in some other direction to get the road into running order. All of the committee that was appointed at the meeting held a couple of weeks ago are thoroughly- interested in the opening of the road and will do all that is possible to accomplish something in this direc tion. It wasn't possible for any of the Union Pacific attorneys to be present today at the meeting, so the whole matter wss taken under advisement.

Another meet ing will be held as soon as all parties interested can make arrangements to attend. Cblnehbog Sub-Treasury. The present condition of the cornfields has caused the cbinchbug station to be come practically useless for the remain der of the year. The corn needs no protection from the bugs as it cannct be much more injured than it is at present. Prof, llickey scys that the bugs under the influence of the dry weather are hatching out with remarkable rapidity and are going to be very numerous during the next month.

Be is devoting his time to preparing as many boxes of diseased bugs as pos sible and will havejBeveral hundred boxes store at the court house in readiness for next year. The diseased bugs will as effective then as now and the fsrmers can get to work on the fields early in the season and so 8 aye many of them. The station has been a success In that has demonstrated the value of this method to scores who would not other wise have tried it. In nearly every in stance the trials have proved successful and hundred of farmers will use the method next rear where tens have this season Abilene Reflector. Pretty Improvement.

The Innes' stores haye been undergo' ing some very pretty improvements dur the last week. They have been re papered by Tracy Learnard with elegant ingrain paper, and in addition to this there will be a coat of paint put on woodwork. All this fixing up has been done preparatory to the fall cam paign and in anticipation of a bigger trade than eyer this fall. The store now looks as pretty as a picture with the new drees and the new goods inside. There was a big crowd at the stores this morning for the opening of the semi-annual sale of remnant and the start made gives promise of lots of busi ness as long as the sale lasts.

It has come to be one of the events the ladies Lawrence look forward to with great deal of interest. Found Cinlltv. In police court this morning Matt Day on trial for selling liquor.

Geo, Brune takes to Lawrence every day fifteen gallons of milk for the Law rence cheese factory, During the past ten days all the camp ers around the lake have gone borne. They say the heat has been ten degrees too high up Walnuts are plenty around the lake and will do to use September 1st. There is always a demaud for them by those who come bere to spend a few days.

Watermelon growers are Just now beginning to market the fiist ones. The season has been an unfavorable one thua far and, if the Lawrence consumer finds small ones en the markets be will know the cause of it. Hundreds of people are taken by the charming roads "going to the lake" and when they cme here they are simply disappointed While the lake is a body of still water it is not without its impurities. Around the edges for a few rods inland is a growth of water grass that grows no where else and thus dims the beauty that is expected of a summer resort. -1- LOWEB MUD CHEEK The late potato crop has been cut by the drouth.

Mud Creek is lower than it has been for years past. Will Zimmerman has 2,000 bushels of wheat, all his own production. Several bushels of pawpaws can be found on the creek that will be ripe about the first of next month. About a dozen applications have been made for the school at this place and none have been accepted. Howard Willis, a Lawrence citizen, has nine acres in sweet potatoes west of the creek; and on the east on the Harris farm W.

C. Pine has eight acr es The two fields make an excellent show ing just now when all the weeds are taken out. Both these men were raised in New Jersey, where sweet potatoes are the chief product of the soil and they brought with them their way of raising potatoes. williambtowk. The corn crop in the bottom has been cut short by the drouth through which we are now passing.

Corn that looked well two weeks ago cannot recover the shock. Wheat around Williamstown is all threshed out and' the machines are on the uplands north of town. Al Humphrey, who was badly scalded. is in quite a critical condition at this writing. He was on the engine of a thresher that went down two weeks ago on Mud creek.

He formerly lived in Lawrence and rented, the small farm north of town when he went a threshing His breast is badly scalded and the heat makes it painful. Ike Knapp, who lost one of his legs by being broken above the ankle, is suffering at bis home in this village. Both these men are poor and must be helped immediately. Knapp lost all he had when his house left him in the famous cyclone a year ago. Humphrey, who lived in Lawrence for two years until laat spring, has nothing but a team with which he hauled wood for the past two years from Reno to Lawrence.

-t- PONT CREEK. The corn crop has been cut short one half already, and if the drouth contin ues another week corn cutting time has come. All the people of color in this part of the country celebrated West India eman cipation at Gelen'a grove last Wednes day. The heat for several days past has been so oppressive that the threshers have found it difficult to follow the machine. The Pony Greek hay preas is an insti tution that has capital behind it as well as before it, is just now in the throes of solitude as the crop will be cut short by the heat of July and August.

Mrs. Matilda Lash, widow of the late George Lash, died a few days ago in Tonganoxie at the age of fifty years They took an eighty acre lot several years ago on the creek and George Lash died abont ten years ago. The deceased was a sister of R. W. Miller and also Mrs.

Simpson, who now lives in this neighborhood. BUCK CREEK. The big Buck creek barn on the Morris farm has been condemned and is now undergoing repairs with iron braces through it, coating three hundred dollars additional. The barn cost $2,000 and was supposed to be safe against storms. tornadoes or anything that might come, about.

The proprietor lately considered tne entire structure unsafe ana Has now with these costs made the structure formidable If it blows it will never come to piepea but will roll around on the ground, iiuck creek farmers up this way were laboring under the impression that they were to nave tne largest corn crop ever before seen on the creek.

The parlors were crowded with people and the music by the Saunders orchestra ras a delight to the visitors.

Since the police have such a good rep utation for cleaning out fakirs that strike tne town, why wouldn't it be a good idea to run in the agent of the Pan-American Coupon Investment com pany fake scheme, who is operating here.

Such a statement made under such circumstances snd by a man found guilty of such a charge has not a great deal of weight with anyone. That the charges made have any founds tion except in malice or for political ends, is not believed. And particularly is this the case as far as Mr. Spangler is concerned.
