L. G. Frailer and family returned from the East last Saturday, all in excellent health, and having enjoyed their trip very much. Mr. Frailer says it is a mistake for any one to belittle the World's fair, because it is an immense thing, and contains material enough for months of close observation. He says graft ers are not nearly so much in evi dence at the fair as the people have been led to believe, though quite often -visitors are required to pay more than what they get is really worth. The general business conditions throughout Missouri and Kansas, so far as Mr. Frazler could judge, both from observation and Inquiry, are very good. The principal setback of tbe season has been the extremely wet weather, which has done a great amount of damage in both states. Nevertheless, a large per cent of the crop acreage is In fine condition, and across both states there is a pro fusion of vegetation that Is very re freshing to the eye, and which speaks volumes for the fertility of the soIL He saw thousands of acres of corn standing from 12 to 15 feet high. In fact, outside of the relatively small area swept by the floods the crops are immense. A Pleasonton banker informed Mr. pose. This anords a pretty good market for "local fats" and takes the wire edge off the distress within the radius mentioned. TROUTMAN'S FORCE INCREASED.

Hoodlum boys last Sunday perpe trated contemptible and destructive vandalism upon the Brownfield apart ment house and Nowlln's new resi dence, upon Willow street, and there can be nothing more certain than than something will be doing when the reprobates are discovered. Entrance was made to the Nowlln place by cutting a hole in a screen door, by which the latch was reached and unfastened. Inside things were generally upset and Interfered with. Paint cans were upturned and the contents allowed to spread out over the floor. Then paint was smeared over the wainscoting, which had been prepared for painting, and it was so disfigured that the removal and re building of a portion of the wainscot ing is necessary, as the smeared col ors could not possibly be removed. At the Brownfield property the principal damage done was to smear paint over the newly papered walls The perpetrators of this mischief may not fully realize that they are guilty of burglary- and housebreaking, both of which are penitentiary offen ses. exasperated property owners who have a distaste for lawlessness and hoodlumlsm will not nut ud with such devilment very long without re sorting to the law to protect their property and the community. spectlvcly.

When Roland Soper awoke last evening and found himself in the city Jail, his first thought was of liberty, and he managed to unfasten the door and walked away. He forgot at the time, however, that $5.25 belonging to mm was in the possession of the ponce department. This morning the desire to recover his money was stronger than the price of liberty, and he made his way to the police court to demand his prop erty. "You are charged with resisting an officer and with being drunk." said Judge Fitz Gerald by way of greeting as aoper entered. "I guess I'm guilty," said the prodigal, "but 1 didn't think I committed anything se rious." "Only $5 worth." replied the iudee. "If I had a Jail I'd place you In It, out as u is, ru suspend sentence in recard In thn nmlnim. A ....
