Mr. Brown, of tho Brown Supply
Company, of Colfoyvllle, was here
Saturday looking over tho town. He
is interested in a plan to engage In
tho manufacture of artificial stono und
examined with Intorosttho work on tho
Musonlo Templo. Being u loyal citi
zen ho did not express surprise at
lola's evidences of prosperity, but

polntod out: "Wo aro going to have
a glass plant, a paper mill and a
cotton mill at Coll'oyvlllo." And
that's what loyal citizens should do.
Rol Gard nnd Cash EdBon wero dis
cussing tho dangers of various occu
pations. Cash said ho would not go
up In a balloon for half of Allen county
Neither would Rol, and ho added that
ho saw a carpentor hanging by his too
nails over tho edgo of tho north Bchool
building. Ho did not want to bo a
carpenter. Rol finally stated that tho
only sate work ho know of was laying
cement walks, but Cash called his at
tention to tho fact that' a runaway
team might run ovor you then. Thoy
finally agreed that any kind of work
was far too dangerous for them.
Somo local interest will bo taken in
tho recent hanging of u man out west
for tho reason that Oscar Cain, an old
Iola boy, Is tho county prosecuting at
torney who brought tho murderer to
tho scaffold, although defended by tho
wily J. Ham Lewis. Tho victim was
Charles W. Nordstrom, and ho mur
dorod William Mason In 1801 In cold
blood over a dispute about a few dol
lars wages. Nordstrom appealed
from court to court and tho nanglng
was thus delayed ten long years, but
when it was duo ho broko down and
cried nnd fought. Ho was tied by
forco to a board and in this way
hanged.

recent frohtspleeo. The picture
showed tho Shamrock II at anchor in
New York harbor, under full sail.
After taking it for granted that
Colllors knows tho truth Stover
said that Kansas yachts men
woro betting on tho Defender If tho
Shamrock's captain did not know bet
ter than to Ho at anchor under full
sail. And tho editor will wonder what
subject Kansas cannot rlso up and
testify about.
Mr. A. Barnard, of Toronto, wh
has beon hero visiting D. Horvlllo and
dlsqussing tho stock farm which thoy
mutually own in Woodson county re
turned homo last week. Year
ago he lived hero and herded cattle
ontho hills whero Lallarpo now stands,
unimpeded by fenco or house. Ho
vividly recalls rounding a bunch of
steers up on the public squuro In Iola.
Ho was riding a brouco and tho beast
began to buck, keeping up tho contor
tions cloaracross tho squaro and final
ly bringing up In n pllo of farm ma
chinery. Barnard was smoking a
new clay plpo und ho bit tho stem oil
unconsciously and It wus A. W. Beck
who discovered tho fact after tho
Bronco quit.
Thero Is a man on tho streets now
who has a glow on his face, who In
sists on shaking hands with his
friends, who looks happier and clean
er than ho has for years. That man
has just secured his freedom from u
bondugo that hold him cuptlvo for ten
years, robbing him of tho money that
ho earned, ruining his body and soul
and making his family miserublo. Ho
hus just finished taking a courso of
treatment for tho liquor habit under
Dr. Woods nnd declares his linn faith
that ho is his own mustor ugain und
will remain so. And if ho stands
straight tho town ought to mako It too
hot for tho "frlond" who shall tempt
him to fall again.
Tho liquor row still boils at Fort
Scott. Rov. Martin preaches on Sun
day and the Commltteoof Fity answer
through tho Monitor. Sunday Mr.
Martin likened Fort Scott to Sodom,
declared tho administration tho rotten
ost of many rotten ones and proceeded
generally to hang it on tho business
men. A now feature has caused a
scandal. Tho council In secret ses
sion seems to havo agreed to let tho
city attorney collect tho joint fines for
two months to pay him for defondlng
tho jolntists. In tho now jury panel
aro two Fort Scott saloon keopers and
to help get convictions tho Civic Puri
ty Louguo is urging a grand jury.
And the wholo Stato Is looking
askanco ut Fort Scott.
