Last Friday a little boy of Mr..
Roberts was bitten on the hand by

For Communicating a Murder in Missouri
Last February.
Last sunday evening sheriff Co amer
received the following letter:
PRINCETON, MERCER Co. Mo.
August 12th, 1876.
To the Sheriff Of Lyon county, Kan.
Dear Sis: In confidence L write 20 you.
am informed that there is IN your coun-
" two men and may be three) that left
this state for the murder OF man py the
name OF Asa ReIns- l understand they are
located at Hartford in your county as fol-
lows: Joseph Thompson man about SIX
feet high and dark complexion and rather
say nothing sort OF fellow and from
what can learn isin the employ OF saw
mill also his brother Jack Thompson,
boy about 10 years old low, HEAVIEST
with weak eyes. They say he Is working
for farmer in the same neighborhood.
Joseph Thompson il q stout, rugged
man. and both of them are considered
dangerous characters, although they APP
pear very quiet in their way. You Will
haye 10 be very careful or they will give
YOU the dodge. lou will have 10 lay
your plans sharply, and when you get
Them YOU will secure safely aud then tel
tgraph 10 me. 1 would go myself, but
they both know me and l would
be in the way. Do what you do
secretly so that in case you do not
get them they will not find out anything.
Send all messages TO Princeton, Mercer
Co., Mo. To j. l.. Cook, Dept. Sheriff.
You will please let me hear from you.
Yours, j. l.. COOK.
On Tuesday Sheriff Conner found the
eldest Thompson In Hartford, in this
county, working in blacksmith shop,
and arrested him, without any resistance.
Thompson does not deny the crime, mere
Iy saving it was done in a row. He has
a wife and three children, the eldest
boy of about ten years. They feel very
badly, but Thompson took it quite cool.
He was left in charge OF NJ. NJ. Mason,
who happened to be in Hartford, while
Sheriff Conner found team aud went
down to Hammond farm, in Coffey eoun-
ty, four miles east OF HIrtfOf d. Here he
waited until the younger Thompson, who
was working on the farm, came to dinner,
when he arrested him, the prisoner TAX
ing matters very quietly. The Sheriff
then brought both OF them to the Empo-
RIA jail where they await the arrival Of
the sheriff from Missouri. The eldest is
about 80 years OF age, and was going by
the name Of Nathan Thompson, and the
younger, abo 1t 10, by the name of George
Thompson, when arrested. The murder
was committed last February.

Circulate 1'l,e Facts
from the Real Estate Registerl

@-$~@N
The inquiries for correct information
in regard to Kansas, manifested by
the thousands who visit our state
building at the Centennial are truly
wonderful.
We hear such expressions as the
following a hundred times a day:
t'If were only a young man again,
1 should certainly go to Kansas"
"Well 1 am going to live where they
raise such things as these" "This is
certainly the state for me-" 81 want
to live among the people who got up
this exhibition" &c. &c.
A dozen men could be kept busy
the whole time answering the innu-
merable questions which are constants
ly asked by the eager throng.
The building is crowded every day,
and all day, and among them we find
many who have visited us several
times.
It is one of the best known places of
resort. and we are happy to say that
many from Penn. and New Jersey,
who are almost constant visitors at
the grounds seem to take great pleas
ure in directing strangers to our
building. Every Kansan who comes
here feels the enthusiasm of the man
ayers, and most of them cheerfully
give portion of their time to our
assistance.
We wish again to urge upon the
newspapers of the state the importance
of publishing more facts of interest to
strangers. Your home readers will
certainly excuse you if for the bal
ance of the season, you convert your
paper into immigration documents.
Our reading room attracts a great
deal of attention, and is of great as
sistance to us in our work.
Our fear is, that the people of the
state will not get fully awake to the
Importance of this great event until
the occasion has passed. 1t seems to
us of much more Importance that our
state should be properly represented
before the world, than that John smith
should be elected to some petty office,
or that some contemplate neighbOr-
hood scandal should be re-hearsed
from week to week and from day to
day.
When every. state in the west is
exerting itself to the utmost, it GER
tainly behooVes US to see to it that
our much maligned commonwealth
shall be correctly and fully represent
