There was at least one divided house
hold in this neck of timber on election
day. ItIappears that man and his
wife differed very seriously as to the
ftness of the leading candidates for
sheriff. the wife being teeth and toe-nail
for White, and the husband being a.
ardent supporter of the Democratic
candidate. The latter's supporter went
to the polls and deposited his ballot and
went about his business, while his wife
went to livery stable, hired carriage
and went after four laboring men who
felt they could not spare the time 10
walk down 10 the polls aud vote, and
placed White tickets in their hands
and argued that gentleman's claims
and qualifications for the office of sheriff
until the voting place was reached, and
then took good care to see that the bal
lots were deposited TO her notion. A
day or two after the election a pill came
in for the carriage hire, which very
much astonished the lady's husband
but which he paid without murmur

DEATH oF JOHN WILSON.

John Wilson, the venerable father of
Mrs. H. E. Norton, died at his residence
on South Commercial street at half past
: o'clock a. m. Saturday, the cause OF
death being a general breaking down of
the faculties, incident to old age. The
deceased was born at Chambersburg,
Pennsylvania, in 1908. and was rs years
of age in August. He moved to Le'
compton in 1s60-the year of the great
drouth. After remaining there about 6
year, he went with his family
to Topeka, where he lived
until 1873, when he settled
in this city. The cause OF his last
change of residence was the loss of ar
unmarried daughter, who was the stay
of her parents declining years, and attel
her death they sought and found found
in the family of Mr.. Norton a source O
comfort and help which never failed
them. The wife of the deceased survives
him, and besides Mrs. Norton there is {
daughter living in Ohio and a son who's
home is IN Colorado. The bereavement
falls with heavy weight on the aged
companion OF the deceased, who mOurni
as only those can who have sui
fered the loss of faithful helpmest.
Mr.. Wilson was a man of an exceed
Ingly genial temper, and even In the win
ter of his life was SO sunny and cheer
full that it was always a source of in
spirstion to meet him. He was very
greatly belOFed in Topeka, where he WA
widely known, and the faculty which he
possessed for making friends made hin
very much of favorite in Emporia
The deceased was member of the Ma
sonic order and stood very high in the
lodge OF which he was member il
Ohio.
The remains we're removed Saturday
to the residence of Mr.. Norton, anG
were taken to Topeka on the moor
