The unsatisfactory odmdition of affairs mystifies some of the’ storekeepers, from the fact that the usual number of men are at work in the mines and théy are getting their pay regularly. It is probably due to the fact that so mapvy citizens are husbanding their finances to lay in firewood and other supplies for the winter months. A Kansas Tale of Woe, Hark to this tale of woe, says the St. Louis Republic. A man out in Kansas mortgaged his farm to buy his wife a pair of diamond ear rings.
