Miss McBride was born in White county, Tennessee, October 14, 1853. Her parents moved to the state of Mis souri in and came to Kansas in the year 1S'55. When 16 years of age she became connected with the Chris tian church, of which she remained a consistent member until the day of her death. P'or one vear past she has been severely afflicted, suffering from a com plication of diseases, producing a derangement of the heart. She bore her sufferings with truechristian fortitude, and up to the moment of her demise cheerfully expressed her readiness and desire to and be with Christ, which is far better." Her aged father, one brother and her two remaining sisters were with her during her last moments, and to each she sjioko of her departure and bade them farewell, and then quietly fell asleep.

Funeral services were held at the residence at o'clock last Monday morning, conducted by Rev. James Massey, pastor of the M. E. church, in the presence of a large concourse of friends and neighbors who were present to show their respect to the memory of the departed, and sympathy for the bereaved relatives. After the services tli 3 remains were escorted to the cemetery by a long line of grief-stricken friends in carriages.

Charlie Day was in town last Saturday and reports that his three girls at Manhattan have the diptheria, but they are all recovering. He says there is considerable of that disease among the children in that city, but there has been little or no fatality.

Last Sunday Vernon Booth, son of J. O. Booth, a lad of 7 years, while out riding on horseback fell from the horse and dislocated one of his arms at the elbow. The cause -of the fall was the turning of the saddle. The boy is doing well at the present writing.

A hunting party was indulged in by several of the sportsman southwest of town last Saturday.

Clarence In-ga'ishe was captain of one side, and Frank Harrisin cantain of the other. Th! hunters met at Arispie at night and counted trophies. Mr. Ingalsbe's side scored 232 points, against 214. The losiug side is to give an oyster supper and dance at Robt.

Have we such an i Item of Interest Developed During a Short Visit. Last Tuesday the editor of this pa per devoted most of the day to visiting the public sehotls in this city. The attendance has increased considerably since the opening of the present term, and some of the rooms, especially those of the teachers Misses Wilson and Grim, are about as full as they well can be.

In the high school department were 2 pupils, in Miss Beisly's room 38. in Miss Grim's room 39 and in Miss Wilson's room 36. Miss Wilson has the primary pupils, and has the little folks well in hand. There was no seeming attempt on the part of the teacher to preserve good order and yet the best of order prevailed. Some of the pupils in this room are doing finely while others, as is always the case in all schools, are not making the advance they should.

This, however, is no fault of the teacher. Miss Grim has charge of the next grades. It has been the experience of the writer that in all schools this grade of pupils is more difficult to bring under good discipline than any other. This has doubtless been the experience of the teacher in this room, and yet she has succeeded in securing to a commendable degree a standard of government hard to maintain in most schools of like grades. This room is really crowded when all who are enrolled are present, and the teacher has all the work she can possibly accomplish.

Many of her pupils are making excellent progress and show the untiring energy and pains-taking of the teacher. Miss Beisley presides over the next higher grades. A class in grammar was reciting while we remained in this room. During the recitation good or der prevailed without much effort on the part pf the teacher, and the recitation itself was interesting and in-structiTe; Here we were shown some specimens of map-drawing, the work of the pupils, which were creditable to the school. Some of these maps were exceedingly well executed, and well may the teacher be proud of the work.

Trofessor Comfort was at home in his department. Two grammar classes recited during our stay here, and we were highly pleased with the thoroughness and accuracy of their work. In short, wc were highly pleased with our visit to these schools. The entire corps of teachers are energetic and ambitious to accomplish all they possibly can in securing the success of the schools, and if the pupils do not advance rapidly and thorough' it will not be the fault of a single teacher. We cannot refrain from a few criticisms as to the condition of the school rooms.

The walls and wood-work arc clingy, needing calsomining and painting badly. The blackboards are crack ed and in some places so rough as to be almost worthless. There should be a storm door on the north side of the building to protect the entrance to the hail. The wind from the north whistles through this hall while the room doors are so open that it is im possible to keep the lower rooms warm in cold weather. A few dollars outlay in these matters would render the rooms more pleasant, servicable and comfortable and at a considerable aving of fuel.

What Our Neighbors are lolnr In Center Township. Our farmers are improving this fine; Kansas weather in securing their corn crop, which will fall very much short of last season's yield. The health of the people in this vicinity is good, with the exception of some bad colds. At the present writing three of Mr. S.

J. Lorg attended divine services at Laclede last Sabbath. We had the pleasure of listening to a very interesting sermon preached by Miss Watson, of the M. P. church.

She is a very eloquent and forcible speaker. Mrs. Dr. Taylor was called to attend the bedside of her daughter who is very sick in Indiana. The protracted meetings of the M.

E. church are progressing very nicely. Much interest is being manifested and a number of conversions are the result so far. It is hoped the meetings will continue until many shall "know the Lord, whom to know aright is life eternal." The meeting is conducted by Bro. Burnard, who is untiring in his efforts to win souls to the knowledge of the truth.

Ve were very sorry to be uuable to attend the twenty-fifth anniversary of the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. J. Lorg. We hope that they may blessed with life and prosperity, and live to see and enjoy many such anniversaries, and also remember the giver of all iod and perfect gifts as they travel down life's journey.

G. W. H. Peripatetics. This term, applied to an ancient Greek school of because its followers had no settled abiding place, describes very aptly the American people of the present day.

Asa people we are "rolling stones" of the most jn -nounced type, and that not aHogcthw without reason.
