Frank Sauire & Son. We are the exclusive agents for the celebrated Superior stoves and ranges; Superior in name, Superior} in quality, Superior in everything | that goes to make up a first-class | cock stove. Frank Suita & Son. Co. B, Butler’s crack militia com- pany, went into camp Friday at White’s Grove, just east of the city limits. Tents were stretched and the boys are now being given a taste of camp and army life. Saturday physicians were kept busy examining the pbysical condition of the boys, and quite a number failed to pass| the examination. Men and medicines are judged by what they do. The great cures by Hood's Sarsaparilla give ita good name everywhere. Joe Medley, one of our town boys, was arrested Saturday and locked in jail on a warrant charging him with stealing $735 from George Norde. It is clain.ed by the Norde boy, who is about 13 years of age and lives a short distance west of town, that the Medley boy got him drunk, toek him to his home and robbed him of his meney and purse. The Medlev boy was arrested by Marshal Kelley but no money was found on his person. He denies the charges. Mrs. Heskett, living on the Badg- ley farm, two miles southwest of town,was badly frightened by a visit Sunday from a couple of tramps pass ing through the country. The hobos stopped at the house to get some- thing to eat and being erdered away and threatened with a dog which Mrs. Heskett called to her assistance, pulled a pistol. This demonstration of arms scared the family badly and a boy was sent to town to notify the officers. Marshal Kelley re- sponded and kept a watch on the depot. In the meantime Walter Crabtree had intercepted the tramps on the road and took them back to the house. The hobos pleaded with Mrs. Heskett and agsured her that they meant no harm to her, and the lady finally yielded and let them off. When they arrived at the depot marshal Kelley took them in and} explanations were again in crder, after which they were told to pull their freight. The pistol the tramps had was not loaded and they claimed they merely stopped at Mrs. Hes- kett’s for shelter from the storm with no intention of harming her. An Old Settler Gone. Mrs. Rhoda A. Reeder died at the home of her con, Otis, in Mingo township, Thursday afternoon at 3 o'clock, at the ripe old age of 75 years, 2 months and 3 days. The funecal services were condueted by Rey. J. A. Smith of Adrian, Friday afternoon, and the interment made in the France cemetery. Mrs. Reeder was born in Indiana, and came to Bates, then Van Buren, county in the early thirties. She married Joseph Reeder, who died six yearsa go. She united with the Christian church in 1859 and lived a} christian life. Her’s was a noble, self-sacrificing eharacter, and her life was such that she possessed the love and esteem of all her neighbors. Ten children survive to mourn their loss. They are: Oscar, Frank, C.

Installation Services, re department held a A cordial invitation is extended the people of Butler to attend the installation services at the First Presbyterian church Thursday, May Eth, at 7:30 p.m. The Rev. S. D. Jewe'l is to be installed by a com- mittee of Kansas City Presbytery as the pastor of this church. The fol- lowing ministers are expected to take part in the services: W.C. Porter D D, of Ft. Scott, Kan., will preach the sermon; Rev. W. M. Newton will preside, propound the constitutional questions and give the charge to the paster; Rev. J. B. Hill will give Dr. Porter these gentlemen are all well and favorably known personally to Butler, and we are sure that all will be glad to hear them again. Dr. Porter has besn pastor of the First Presbyterian church of Fort Scott for more than twenty-five years, and is one of the ablest and most univer- sally beloved of the Presbyterian church in Kansas. The J. C. Ayer Company celebrat- ed the fiftieth anniversary of the establishment of that famous medi- cine company by banqueting it’s employees at Lowell, Mass., recently. We are told that the average life of a patent medicine in America is something less than two years. If that be true considerable merit must attach to the Ayer medicines to in- sure its progressive development of half a century run and their “jubilee” celebration must have been a source of great satisfaction to them The following new names have been added to the constantly grow- ing subscription list of the Booming Tings this week: T.

The next time you see him, just ask him what he thinks of Scots Emulsion of Cod-Liver Oil with Hypo- phosphites. We are willing to trust in his answer. For twenty-five years doc- tors have prescribed our Emulsion for paleness, weak- ness, nervous exhaustion, and for all diseases that cause loss in flesh. Its creamy color and its pleasant taste make it es- pecially useful for thin and delicate children. No other preparation of cod- liver oil is like it. Don't lose time and risk your health by taking something unknown and untried. Keep in mind that SCOTTS EMULSION has stood the test for a quarter of a century. nd all 4: SCOTT'S BOWNE, Caeser, yok, A large assortment = screen wire, both green and black, also sereens for doors and windows at prices to suit the times 24 tf Franz Sura & Son.
