Col. J. W. Straughn writes from
Alma, Colo,. June 18th. "The snow is
so heavy yet that no work out of doors
can be done the worst for many years;
though our neighbors are at work right
along. They are taking out some very
nice ore, and it concentrates fine. Grub
is high. Flour is $12 to $14 per
hundred; bacon 35 cents per pound;
lumber $75 to $100 per thousand. '

the shadowy rays of the sun shot up

ance of a keystone, variously colored,
and making an illustration seldom wit
nessed on the canopy closing the setting

SUED FOR LIBEL.
W. F. Petillon, a pic-eater from
Chicago, said to have come to this
country for the benefit of his health,
brings suit against the editor of the
Dodge City Times, to recover dam
ages to the extent of $10,000. This
modest demand is for an alleged libel
against Petillon' s character. The
statement appearing in the Times of
last week, wherein we characterized
Petillon as a "distinguished bond ex
tractor and champion pic-eater. ' ' We
shall admit the truth of the statement
that "Petillon is a bond extractor," but
we shall retract the statement that Pe
tillon is a pie-eater." We have been
better informed on charges we have
made. While there is a general belief
that Petillon has extracted several
bonds and papers in the District Court,
there is an impossibility as to the sec
ond allegation. We have consulted
the free lunch stands in the city and
find .that Petillon takes to soup and
beans as kindly as a duck takes to
water.
ABOUT PIES.
During the war the bakers and fruit
venders manufactured a pie which has
since become famous in history, and
generally known as the "Lincoln pie,"
so-called by the colored people from
the days of the rebellion, in honor of
the savior of their race. The pie is a
whole meal in extent of its inside fil
lings. To the darkey the pie is meat
and bread, and vegetables thrown in,
the ingredients or make-up of the pie
serving the purpose of supplying the
wants of the inner man. The colored
man's peculiar genius, or his instinct is
keener than some others on the com
pound of a pie, has furnished the world
with a suitable pie and also shown his
gratitude by conferring the honor of
the great man's name to the pie.
Younger people, or those unacquainted
with the history of the war of the re
bellion, will have no recollection on the
famous pie question. But it is our
duty to refresh history, hence we
bring up the "Lincom" pie, as the
black boys call it. In the eastern
States this pie is still considered the.
Alpha and Omega of the darkey's feast,
There are other pies equally celebrated.
There is the pumpkin pie as old as the
landing of the pilgrims. There is the
mince pie, similar to the Lincoln pie in
make up. The custard pie and the
apple pie ad iufinitum. The pie-eater
chooses from the galaxy of pies, and
according to season relishes the pie
suitable to the occasion. Just now
the "Lincum' ' is in its glory. Speaking
of pies reminds us that pies figure in
history more than we imagine, unless
we take time to give the matter a
thorough overhauling in our minds. It
is said that a good deal of the disorder
in the digestive apparatus is attributed
to the pie crust. During this disar
rangement it is said that the strongest
passions of love and hate are engen
dered. If this be true, then love is
responsible to the pie. If this be true
then anger or hate is responsible to pie.
It is pie that is the source of our in-
ternal commotions, and it is pie that
causes war and family feuds. To pie
is accountable of the lore spring that
emanates from the youth's fascinating
heart. It is under the indigestible
agony of pie that the tender love pro
posals are made, It is to pie that we
owe our $10,000 libel suit, for under
the indigestibility of the pie, the intro
ducer of this suit was laboring, hence
the champion pie-eater is getting to
the front
SPEAREVILLE ITEMS.
Miss Anna Shuman daughter of R.
E. Shuman, returned from Topeka last
week, having been absent several
months attending the Washburn Col
lege. Mr. Benton arrived last week
from Dlinois, and is visiting his son H.
I. Benton, one of our well known sheep
men.
A dance at Prof. Eastman's on
Monday night last, was one of the
pleasant affairs of the week.
Mr. and Mrs. Albert Lawrence, of

Miss Flora Stewart, daughter of
T. B. Stewart, returned Wednesday
lust from Manhattan, where she has
been for several months past attending

The woolen shepherds around here
arc fleecing their sheep of their year's
growth of wool, and no doubt a large
portion of it in the shape of ready
made clothing will fall in the hands of
the sheep clothing merchants' well
known in our large cities, and eventual
ly the consumer flcecest. The ancient
shepherds were noted for their good
ness and Godliness. We would be glad
to regard the modern shepherds for the
same noble qualities but cannot think
of it on account of their being so much
fleecing j carried on in and eminating
from their business.
Our citizens are making arrange
ments to celebrate the 4th of July by
having a Sabbath school pic-nic at
Rolans Grove, a beautiful place on the
banks of the wcried and winding Saw
Log stream that is given to extremes.
The committe on arrangements have
not met as yet, therefore we cannot say
what the programme of the day's enter
tainment will be, but we feel assured
that there will be quite an effort made
to have a grand good time. There is a
cordial invitation extended to all to
join us in celebrating that day in com
memoration of our National Indepen
dance. resulting in a union of States,
cemented together by the priceless
blood of thousands of brave soldiers
who yielded their lives that the grand
est and most magnanimous government
on the face of the earth might exist.

The State. Board of Agriculture
has information from a number of
correspondents, covering almost the en
tire state, concerning the condition of
the growing crops. The wheat harvest
will commence within a week. Al
though the acreage is short of that of
last year, the yield per acre will be
above the average for the past five
years. The area of corn is greater
than ever before, and although back
ward in some localities, the state has
never had such a prospect for a big
corn crop. In some fields the stalks
are fully six feet high, with an ex
cellent stand. The weather is ex
tremely propituous, and with season
able rains for a few weeks this impor
tant crop will be assured. Choice cul-.
tivated farms in the state are command
ing $30, $40, and even $50 per acre,
while hundreds of thousands of acres of
upland prairies are being enclssed with
wire fences for pasturage. The future
outlook is extremely encouraging.

The following is from the Fort
Worth Journal and it finds an applica
tion in Kansas: In a few years men
who have no title to ranching land or
at least td a sufficient water front to
control a range, will be driven out of
the business or forced to buy lands at
greatly increased values. Land that
can now be bought for three dollars an
acre will in a few years cost six, and
all other grades of grazing lands in
proportion. This may very reasonably
be construed as advice to ranchmen to
fortify themselves with titles to their
ranches and water privileges.

Avxn's Cathartic Fills arc the best
of all purgatives for family use. They
are the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical Investigation, and
their extensive use, by physicians in
their practice, and by all civilized na
tions, proves them the best and most
effectual purgative Fill that medical
science can devise. Being purely veg
etable no harm can arise from their
use, and being sugar-coated, they are
pleasant to take. -la intrinsic value
and curative powers no other Fills
can be compared with them; and every
person, knowing their virtues, will
employ them, when needed. They
keep the system in perfect order, and
maintain in healthy action the whole'
machinery of life. Mild, searching and
effectual, they are especially adapted
to the needs of the digestive apparatus,
derangements of which they prevent
and cure, if timely taken. They are
the best and safest physic to employ
for children and weakened constitu
tions, where a Mild bat' eflectual
cathartic is required.
