The ordiuance of baptism was administered Saturday after noon to those who preferred the mode of pouring, or immersion. Chas. F. Copeland returned from Lamar, Tuesday, with his family, and sister-in-law, Mrs. Ad die Bunion nee Knowlton. Mr. Copeland celebrated with the La marites in their latest and most approved style, by walking the sunburned streets aud grinning at his neighbor. Not an orator there to twist the lion’s tail, not a teacher to tell the children of the great George Washington and his hatchet. Just a common every day ‘come-to-t-own-and-trado’ pic nic. D. A. Rinehart used to have a smoke house full of meat and things. Mrs. Kfnehart concluded last Friday that the meat would take on a packing-house flavor by smoking*, so she built a fire and applied the necessary fuel. That was the end of it—the meat. The smoke house is a thing of the past and so are the dozens of things it contained, like shotguns and tools of different kinds. The smoke house stood uncomfortably close to the residence, and Mrs. Rine hart's best ‘bucket brigade’ quali ties were brought out. With the aid of a few neighbors the resi dence was saved alter a pretty good scorching. Pork is a rarety at their table now. The celebration of the 4th which occurred in the grove near Spring field Saturday was a success. The weather was cool and in every way pleasant. There was people from every corner of the country gathered to celebrate at the one picnic of the county. The program rendered was about as advertised. The music was good. Rev. Mitch ell made an impressive and ap propriate prayer. Miss Anna Watson recited the Declaration of Independence in clear and distinct tones. Rev. J. Copeland made an able address of some length. Mrs. Cole read an able paper appropri ate to the occasion. Rev. Leland talked in an interesting manner for a few minutes, and Rev. Rader closed the morning exercises by saying that it was dinner time and that he would give a 4th of July sermon at 3:00. Dinner was spread on the grass among the mammoth cottonwood trees and an hour spent in devouring the good things, mostly the product ions of the county, was a happy one. The sermon delivered m afternoon was listened to atten tively by his many admirers. It lookinawide range of subjects and scorched some evils that do not and never will exist in Baca county. Altogether the celebra tion was a success and pronounc ed the best ever held. Young America was there with his fire crackers and older America with a londer instrument of noise. Andy Davis, ot Mitchell Town ship, sold 50 head of yearling steers one day this week, for the sum ot SIOOO. He bought these same cattle last October for $lO a head. In other words lie made SSOO in nine months on a SSOO in vestment. By the way, Andy is not kicking any about this part of the country. We do not want the I Rustlers who are living in eastern j Kansas, in the land that is visited I by floods, cyclones and other pests | too numerous to mention, to reap this item. Tlie Short Grass fellow I has a cinch on the business of ] cattle raising and do not want to [give any to any eastern man.

The entire party are comfortably located pro tern at | the home ot their uncle, D.

The Department of the Interior is sending out the following circu lar to the different land ollices: j Your attention is called to the provisions of an act of Congress, approved Dec. 20 *94. entitled “An act to amend section 3 of an act to withdraw certain public lands hom private entry, and lor other pur poses, approved March 2d ISS9. Sec. 3 of the act of March 2d 18891 reads as iollows: That whenever it shall be made' to appear to the register and re ceiver of any public land office, under such regulations as the Sec retary of the Interior uav pre scribe, that any settler upon the public domain under existing law is unable, by reason of a total or partial destruction or failure of crops, sickness, or other unavoid able casualty, to secure a support J for himself, herself, or those de pendent upon him or her upon the j lands settled upon, then such reg ister and receiver may grant to sucli settler a leave of absence from the claim upon which he or she has filed lor a period not ex ceeding one year at any one time, i and such settlers o granted leave of absence shall forfeit no rights by reason of such absence: Provided. That the time of such actual ab sence shall not be deducted lrom the actual residence required by law. And the provision added there to by the amendatory act is as follows: That it any such settler has here tofore forfeit ted his or her entry for any of said reasons, such per son shall be permitted to make entry of not to exceed a quarter section on any public land subject to entry under the homestead law and to perfect title to the same under the same conditions in ev ery respect as if he had not made the former entry. No party will be allowed to make a second entry under this act. un loss his former entry is cancelled for anv of the causes named, aris ing before December 20 1594. The applicant for such permis sion to make second entry will be required to file in the district land office having jurisdiction over the land he desires to enter, an appli cation for a specific tract of land, and to submit testimony to consist of his own testimony, corroborat ed by the affidavits of disinterest ed witnesses, executed before the register or receiver or some officer in the district using a seal and au thorized to administer oaths, set ting forth in detail the facts on which he relies to support his ap plication, and which must be suf ficient to satisfy the register and receiver, who are enjoined to ex ercise their best and most careful judgment in the matter, that his former entry was in fact forfeited by reason of his inability, caused by a total or partial destruction or failure of crops, sickness, or oilier unavoidable casualty, to secure » support for himself or those de pendent upon him, upon the land set lied upon. The facts to be shown embrace the following, viz: 1. The character and date of the entry, date of establishing res idence upon the land, and what improvements were made thereon by the applicant. 2. How much land was culti vated by the applicant, and lor what period of time. 3. In case of failure or injury to crop, what crops failed or were injured or destroyed, to what ex tent, and the cause thereof. 4. In case of sickness, what disease or injury, and to what ex tent the claimant was 1 hereby prevented from continuing upon the land, and if practicable a cer tificate from a reliable physician should be furnished. 5. In case of “other unavoida ble casualty,” the character, cause and extent of such casualty, and its effect upon the land or the claimant. 0. In each case full particulars upon which intelligent action may be based by the register and re ceiver.

First : —lt is a Daily Paper for Betsy People. The people of the busy West appreciate keen ly the necessity of an intelligent knowledge of the world’s daily doings, but they are too busy to waste valuable time in searching through a cumbrous 44 blanket-sheet ” news paper for the real news of ait, literature, science, religion, politics, and thethousand and-one things which make up modem civ ilization. They want news—all the news but they don’t want it concealed in an over powering moss of the trivial and inconsequen tial. It is Iwcause The Clucaco Daily News is *• all wheat and no chaff” that its circulation is over 44 a million a week.” Second: —lt is an Independent , Truth-tellmg Newspaper. The people demand a fair partial, independent newspaper,which gfves all the news, and gives it nree from the mint of partisan bias. With no mere political am bition to gratify, no 44 ax to grind,” the Im partial, independent newspaper may truly b$ 44 guide, philosopher and friend ” to honest men of every shade of political faith; and this is why The Chicago Daily News has to day a circulation of over 44 a million a week.” The Chicago Daily News now odds tc* these two comprehensive elements of popu larity, a third, in its unparalleled reduction of price to ONE CENT A DAY. It is akuays large enough,—never too large. The Chicago Daily News is for sa'm by all newsdealers at One Cent per copy, or will be mnilcd, postage jiaid, for Sj.po per year, or ec cents per month. The farmer and mechanician now afford, as well as the merchant and professional man, to have his metropolitan daily. Address VICTOR P. LAWSON. Publisher “ Ths Daily Nev/a,” Chicago.,
