Messrs. Drake & Benton inform us that

safe for public travel IL has SO rotted
away that il is now dangerous 10 cross il
with load of wheat, muel less heavy

missioners should at once take cognizance
Of this fact, as the people of that vicinity

X. A. Hargett had found a horse which
was stolen from his farm in this county
about three years ago. Mr.. Hargctt went
to Winfield few days ago for the animal
and returned home with il sunday. The
man that had the horse offered him $50
for il, but he declined the offer. The man
Fisher who Acknowledges stealing the ami
NAL is in jail at Winfield, and has lately eX-
perienced n great change Of beart-at least
he says so-and now wants 10 be,ome
Christian. He will shortly be brought TO
this city and tried for the crime which he
Acknowledges.
One year ago last month james Somer, liv-
living at or near oxford, Sumner county, ac-
cidentally shot himself, tearing away
his shoulder aud upper arm in n
fearful manner. DIR. Croskey, OF
this city. went down aud saw no
chance TO save the mans life, except by
removing the entire should blade which he
did, piece OF which was exhibited in this
Office by DIR. Smith. So frightful was the
wound tbat a photograph was taken OF it.
Yesterday morning Mr.. somer called on us.
He IL stout and healty, having put in forty
acres OF corn and tended it this season. OF
course his shoulder Is nearly all gone and
his arm shrunken, bu; he no longer exper-
fences any pain worth naming. II was a
wonderful piece Of surgery.
United States Marshal Williams returned

Of ponies from q. NJ. Horton. twill be
remembered that some time ago Horton
was surrounded by band of Indians who
demanded pay for his driving herd Of
horses across their lands, and in the melee
that followed. Horton shot Running BuGa-
10. and the Indians ran of the ponies.
Warren, who is married TO q sauaw. s
supposed TO be one Of the thieves, and
has been brought here for trial
Col. Dyer, who is now in that country, has
received some 2lo head OF the pouies. Gen.
Hatch, who went through Wichita last
evening ON his way TO TT. Riley, told Will
liams that he proposed 10 arrest every In
dian who had hand in the affair, and that
he would give them such a lesson as they
would not soon forget, and that in the fu-
ture they would not modest people crossing
their lands. Active steps will begin in
about a week against persons who have set

My son suffered greatly for nine months with
q swelling Of the leg above the knee. The doc
tors OF Wichita treated II for rheumatism, but
u continually grew worse, until the cor,fs I'M

swollen and painial condition sent him TO
Doctors Sexton and Richmond, who at once
pronounced it white swelling, and by mag
netic treatment brought the inflammation from
the bone TO the surface, Strengthened the leg,
and healed it in a short time without pain.
Ills general health, which was very poor, i'm
mediately improved, so that he gained twelve
pounds in three months. j. NJ. KUHN.

The Weak Points in Pools.

The minds of thinking railroad and business men
arr Row largely turned to the pool question. While
pools cannot be said to be failure they have by no
means filed the purposes for which they were insti
tuted. Any honest business man will concede that the
cost of transportation is reduced to a minimum and
that agreed rates with the greatest of care viii only
return small margin of profit and they can not be ap
preciably advanced, The allimporant question then
IS, how can they be honestly maintained? In this
question shippers, well as railroad men, are inter
ested. There is not shipper IN indianapolis who viii

Land Exploring Tickets.

The Illinois Central people to think that they
have been snubbed and a consequence A. H. Han
son. general passenger agent of the Illinois road, has
addressed letter to the lines in the Western Asso-
citation of general passenger and ticket agents, in
which he says that he has been informed that at the
last meeting of the association, held in Cincinnati

member of the association he is not fully advised
to the reasons which actuated the members in thus
singing out State and discriminating against it.,

feel like discriminating against the Illinois Central
