Last Saturday, w. H. Edmiston, llv-
ing on the Neosho, three miles west OF
town, went to his fathers timber after
wood, and found couple of Kaw In
dams cutting timber. He told them
they were on their reservation and had
no business there. The Indians ap-
peared to be satisfied and went away.
Soon, however, they returned and told
him they had lost knife and wanted
him to 60 and help them find it.
When they had crossed the line and
were on the Indian land, one of the
Indians struck him over the head with
a club, knocking him down. Edmis-
ton regained his feet when the othel
Indian seized Edmiston's AK and struck
at him. Mr.. E. evaded the blow, and
after warding them of awhile sue
ceeded in escaping by running. Mr.
Edmiston's father has gone up to the
Agency to demand satisfaction, and i
this Is refused the citizens here threat
en- to take the matter into their Owl
hands and punish these Indians.
The new time schedule ON the n. X
q T. gives us two trains at noon goinl
east that get their meals here, and the
freight comes up at 4:35.

his high moral and social character,
and truthful integrity. On Thursday
evening last he was enjoying his usual
good health, and after going out late
in the evening to look after his stock,
as was his custom, he retired to bed,
feeling entirely well. Nothing I'M
natural was noticed by any one Of the
family until about five o'clock in the
morning, when he was discovered to
be In deaths grasp, and beyond the
power OF speech, and he Immediately
expired. DIR. Huffman being sent for
gave It as his opinion that apoplexy
was the cause of the death.
Mr.. Robinson was In born New York,
May, 1902, being the oldest of a family
OF seven lehildren, and being the first
one to meet death, at the ripe old age
of three score and ten. About the
year 1884 he removed with his wife
from York State to Ohio, where he set
tied. He removed year ago to Kan
sas, and settled in our IieighborhOod
His family look with pride upon the
record he has left behind-an example
of Christian integrity-as the best leg.

of the Presbyterian church, and wa
