The Anthony Weekly Bulletin Harper County Friday June 10, 1898 Miss Bertha MARSH of Freeport returned home last Saturday from Bethany College, Topeka, where she has been attending school. A Kansas man has discovered the reason that an engine is called a she and his argument is that they wear a jacket, an apron, have shoes, hose and drag a train behind them; they have a lap, need guides, ride wheels, will not turn out for pedestrians, sometimes foam and refuse to work; they attract men, are very contrary and it always take a man to manage them.

Arnett, in this city, Thursday, May 12, 1898, aged 68 years, 5 months and 15 days. Mr. Arnett was born in Springfield, Ohio, and was married to Annie MINTO, in Cedar county, Iowa, in 1853. Mr. Arnett was a resident of Ohio nearly all his life, and with his wife and youngest daugher moved to Kansas in 1893. His widow, seven sons and two daughters survive him. One son lives in Fremont, Ohio, one in Chicago, Ill., one daughter in North Hampton, Ohio, five sons and one daughter live in Kansas and Oklahoma. His mother, three brothers and two sisters live in Springfield, Ohio, while one brother lives in Denver, Colorado. The funeral was held at the residence of C.F. Arnett Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock, conducted by Rev. R.B. Engle of the M.E. church and interment was in Spring Grove cemetery. Mr. Arnett was a very active man, and had interests in Oklahoma, and was here on a visit when stricken. His was a kindly nature and as husband and father had the love and affection of his family. He was a good neighbor and citizen and always looked on the bright side of li! fe, and made its duties a pleasure; his daily greeting to friends was always a cheerful one and none could meet him without a measure being the better for his company. With the little folks he was an especial favorite and always had a smile and a kind word for them, and they instinctively loved him because of their unerring judgment of his true worth. His family are the greatest losers, as he was fathe rand older brother to the boys and the indulgent father to the girls, and all felt free in taking their joys and sorrows to him. The many friends of the family will join with us in sincere sympathy to them in their bereavement.

The Anthony Weekly Bulletin Harper County Friday May 13, 1898 A.W. LYNN, who succeeded Miss Ida CULL as teacher in the grammar room of the Anthony public schools, was married to Miss Myrtle GWINN, April 22, by Probate Judge McGOWEN, at his office in this city. Mr. Lynn succeeded in supressing the news for a week or ten days but his friends found it out last week and made life miserable for him at a gathering in Berlin township. They gave him an old fashioned charivari, stole his team and buggy and in other ways punished him for his attempt at concealment. Mr. and Mrs. Lynn are well known residents of the county, and since the secret is a secret no longer, are receiving the congratulations of their many friends in different parts of the county.
----- Original Message ----- From: Jim Laird To: Jim Laird ; Jim Laird Sent: Monday, May 09, 2005 1:24 PM Subject: Misc. Items; Anthony: May 13, 1898 The Anthony Weekly Bulletin Harper County Friday May 13, 1898 Jacob WALTERS of Harper recently had his pension increased form $14 to $17 per month. R.O. FISHER one of the soldier boys who volunteered from Harper, is a brother of F.D. Fisher, the globe trotter, and at present a correspondent at Key West; so says the Topeka Journal. The Poorman Milling Company mill is the buiest place in Anthony. The mill is being run 18 hours each day except Sunday, and cannot keep up with their orders for mill products. The erratic price of wheat the past month has made the business a trying one, but they keep on filling their contracts to the letter. The mill has enjoyed an excellent trade this year and the quality of their flour is second to none in the country. The many friends of Grant TRAVIS will be surprised to know that he is now a member of Troop C, New Mexico Cavalry Volunteers, or as they are more popularly know, "Roosevelts Rough Riders." Grant's school at Farmington closed about two weeks ago and he then went to Santa Fe with a determination to join the volunteers, and a brief letter from him mailed at Newton Monday morning of this week shows that he was accepted, and that he passed through Wichita Monday on his way to San Antonio, Texas, where the troops are mobilized. He was one of the 342 volunteers form New Mexico being transported there by a special Santa Fe train, and it may be Grant's fortune to be among the very first of the volunteers to invade Cuba, as it is said arrangements have been made to immediately send this regiment to Cuba via Galveston. It is thought they will be used to cut off communication between Havna and one of the northern ports of Cuba, through which the Spanish have been rushing supplies. We al! so learn from an Enid newspaper that Charlie ERMAN, another lad well known to many here, has joined this same regiment of western rough riders. John L. PICKENS left the first of the week for Danville for a visit of a week or town in that town and vicinity. Mr. PICKENS may decide to locate in Danville. There will be a tea at Mrs. JENNINGS next Wednesday afternoon, May 18, given by the ladies of the Congregational church. Everybody invited. Supper 15 cents. C.M. HOPKINS one of this county's up-to-date farmers, last year purchased a Twelve-foot Double Drive King Header and Binder combined and has left his order with James J. COSTA for a second one this year. He will use both machines in his one-thousand acre wheat field this year. W.A. MILLER was down to Nardin and Deer Creek, Okla., this week buying wheat. The fancy prices paid was bringing considerable of it to the market. Miss Ada COLLIER went to El Dorado this week to accept a position as "hello girl" in the central telephone office in that city, and will make her home there in the future. Miss Collier was a favorite in Anthony society, her musical attainments added much to her popularity and her departure is deeply regretted by her young friends in Anthony. Wellington has an ordinance against riding a bicycle on the sidewalks. Four or five offenders contributed one dollar and costs the first day of the life of the law. We believe Anthony has some such an ordinance but it is hardly ever violated and never enforced. The Anthony fire department has received from State Superintendent McNALL a check for $46.66 being the amount of its share of the fireman's fund for 1897, due the department of this city.
