Railroad Wattara

The commissioners, Messrs. Field, Rog-
ers and Johnson, appointed by Judge
Sluss TO condemn the right-of-way for
the Harper and Western railroad, met
this week and completed their labOrs.
They first went over the main line lead
ing TO Medicine Lodge, and Wednesday
and yesterday went over the Kiowa
branch. The exact result Of their exam
nations and deliberations Is not known
as yet; but the understanding is that
$1,000 will cover all damages assessed
by them between this point and the
county line aud also the damages from
there TO Attica on the main line.
The township trustees met this week
and issued the $1,000 in township bonds
voted by the people at the special cleo
ton on the 26th of January. The bonds
are now ON the market and already q
bid of 55 cents on the dollar has been
made for them. II is not likely that a
higher price will be obtained. The pro-
leeds Of these bonds will be used as far
as possible in paying for the right-of-
way, and the railroad company will pay
the difference.
In this connection, it may be of in
terest to many to know that the rail-
road company will .deposit a certified
check for $4,000 with reliable parties
here. II the road is not completed to
Medicine Lodge before February 1885,
this check is to be collected and the pro-
ceeds paid into the township treasury.
II the railroad is completed before that
time, the check is to be cancelled.
. The indications now are that work
will be commenced on the road to this
place as soon as the right-of-way is de-
dnitely settled, in a few weeks, and
that the cars will be here by July LIST.

Owing to a number of cases OF scar
letina appearing in this city, it was de-
cided to have no public school this week.
The alarm was almost unnecessary il
appears. for where the disease has ap-
peared II has been in such a mild form
that tho children we're not even kept i'm
doors. Another thing reported about
the lower rooms OF the public school
this week was that ''g-ey-backs.n or
body lice, were thick, and that thor
ough overhauling Of the rooms would
be necessary. Perhaps this is an exag-
gerated story.

About three O'Clock Sunday afternoon
Harvey ColcOrd. second son of W. X.
Colcord Of Oklahoma, this county, a boy
about sixteen years Of age, was exam
lining and tinkering with a 80 calibre
revolver when the weapon went off.
The ball entered the fleshy part Of his
left leg three inches above the knee and
ranged downward. A man was dis
patched 10 Kingplan for a doctor, and
DIR. Graves promptly responded to the
call, driving the distance of over twenty
miles through a severe storm after 10
o'clock p. m. The doctor found the boy
suffering greatly. and probed long
time to find the ball that it might be
extracted, but failed to do so. He care
fully dressed the wound, however, and
thinks there is no doubt but what it
will heal all right and inliict no perma-
nent injury. Harvey was fixing a
spring In the lock of the revolver, and
supposed he had extracted all the car
tridges. We hope the wound may not
prove serious.-Kingman Leader.
