Try BLACK-DRAUGHT tea for Dyspepsia. E. W. Logan called on the Times Friday, and after renewing his al- legiance for another year, informed us that he would shortly take his departure for Joplin, where in all probability he will spend the balance of his days with his son-in-law. Mr. Logan is now in his 78th year, and for the past 14 years has beena most respected and honored citizen of Spruce township, this coun.y. He is ademocrat of the old school and with great pleasure hetreasures up his first vote for president, which was cast for Andrew Jackson. While the Tres is sorry to lose such a val- uable citizen from the county, Mr. Logan will bear w*** him our best wishes. McEtree’s WINE OF CARDUI for female diseases Alarge number of our citizens attended the races at the States track, at Adrain Saturday, and one and all report a good time and lots of fun.

Pharis & Son sell the famous Tebo Flour. About a week ago Mrs. R. T. Hinds, wife of the recorder of deeds of Jackson county, left her home, took a train on the Mo. Pac. rr‘lroad and has not been heard of since. She left her two little children aged 2 and 4 years after kissing them gooc- bye and informing them that she would never see them agan. Her strange action is accounted for by the fact that she cared nothire for her home and domestic life but !ov- ed society and fine clothes. She had a taste for literature and some dramatic talent and it is believed that she has gone to prepare for te stage. Mrs. Hinds is the daughter of Dr. C. C. Wood, formerly Presid’ -z El- der of the M. E. church south o* Kan- sas City; later pastor, Centenary M. E.church of Nevada, and at present President of the Neosho college. He is the best known and most prominent minister of his church in Missouri as well as one of the mosi cultured and deservedly popular gentlemen in the state. This gives prominence to tre news, just leaked out, and tongues wag all the faster on account of it Ir Won't Bake Breap—In other words Hood's Sarsaparilla will not do impossibilities.

The musicale at the Presbyterian church last Tuesday evening was well attended bya refined and appre- ciative audience. The entertainment was a decided success and reflected credit upon the management and those participating. The program was short and very entertaining. The mandolin club, always popular with a Butler audierce, did their very best on this occasion; little Misses Bessie Parkinson and Mabel Ben- net rendered a vocal duet in a charming manner, and the singing of Miss Rebecca Levy, of St. Louis, was charming and she was repeated- ly encored by the enthusiast?> audi- ence, as in fact, were they all. This was Miss Napnie Pyle’s first ap- pearance since her return from Cip- cinnati and while her audience er- pected much, they were not d:sav- pointed, as her rendition of the d‘{- ficult numbers chosen, a sonate yy Beethoven and a prelvde by Chopin, proved her to be one of the finest pianists ever in our city, Miss Katie Glessner, al- so just returned from her mus‘cal studies in Cincinnati, with Miss Pyle rendered a duet, and a vocal duet by Mrs. T.J.Day and Miss Lev; closed the entertainment. McELREE’S WINE OF CARDUI for Weak Nerves A couple of bold train robbers took possession of one of the sleeping coaches on the Wabash railroed Saturday evening, at 8:20, near Hi :- lem. The tworobbers entered the rear door of the sleeper and passing through the car robbed each passen- ger. As they passed out the door to enter the next car they were met by the conductor of the train on his way taking up fare, the robbers or- dered him to throw up his hands, when the conductor refused and a souffle ensued, the robbers using their pistols and the conductor his lantern. In the middle of the melee one of the passengers pulled the the air brake cord and as the train slowed up the robbers jumped off and made their escape into the woods. For their trouble they got $175,00 and two gold watches. Pharis & Son, sell only ‘pure leaf lard. A Palace Store Room. The R. Weil building on the north side of the square which has been undergoing repairs for the past two weeks was completed Friday. Sat- urday L. A. Weil, manager of the Enterprise shoe company, moved his stock back into the building and opened up for business, snugly quar- tered in one of the most elegant and elaborately furnished rooms in the city. The front wall was taken down and repaired, the floor was lowered to a level of the sidewalk, the front steps were moved the rear of the building, and the entire front of the store room, 23 feet in width was re- placed with a handsome plate glass. The outlay for these improvements will come in the neighborhood of $1,200. The Ties is gratified to see such valuable improvements made to the business houses on the square and in this particular instance is disposed to give our en- terprising young friend, L. A. Weil, the entire credit for what has been done in the fixing up of the store room.

McFarland, who has been | rusticating and sightseeing in the southern part of the state, Kansas, Texas and Indian,Territory,returned home last week. He reports a pleas- | ant and profitabletime. But when questioned in regard to the much talked of and advertised garden of Eden, Oklahoma, he said he had only to report the stories of those who had been there _A little strip of good land,the balance only fit for the habitation of prairiedogs, goph- ers and ants and fro.n all appearances it kept them hustling to make a liv- ing. He was not there for the pur- pose of squatting un a claim and having heard and read so much about the country concluded to stage it around and see for himself, con- sequently he noted the land and sur- roundings pretty close and knows what he is talking abeut. He says a large portion of the land is very poor andiu his judgement will not raise anything, not even grass and weeds. He tells us he was ir- formed that a number of persons who went there with rush and locat- ed claims got disgusted and refused to file, in consequence there ‘s still aqvantity of land unclaimed and awaiting the arrival of the hardy ad- venturer who wishes to whet his plow shear on the sand rock and live on grasshoppers and prairie dogs. The new towns of Guthrie, Kingfish- er and Oklahoma City, are enjoying a building boom at present, but after this is over he is ata Joss to know what they are going to sub- sist on, as the country is st’ 1 barren and it w'l be :everal years before the farmmg element get on the'r feet. Mr. McFarland also traveled over the Cherokee strip which is about 50 miles in width. He said for 40 miles_the lay of the land is beautifu', the land bore the appearance of being very richand fertile, and if ever opened up those who get claims would secure something worth hay- ng.
