The End Of Jerry Zeiler.

The remains of Jerry Zeiler were
brought here from Mulvane last Thurs
day and at once buried. He died on the
10th at l:30 p. N. 1t appears that he
was coupling cars al Woodward on the
night of the eth, when in some manner
he was drawn under the train and the
cars ran oyer his left ankle, severing it.
excepting piece of skin. There was
no physician there, but one was sum-
moned from Canadian, but he simply
tied bandage around the leg below the
knee and the sufferer was put aboard a
freight train and hauled to Wellington.
without further surgical treatment. AT
Wellington the company's physician
looked at Zeiler and ordered him taken
on to Ottawa. He was taken as far as
Mulvane, when the Oumpany's physi-
ian, an acquaintance of Zeiler, saw
how serious was his case and took him
in charge and had his folks notified.
The foot was amDutated Monday. Tues
day DR.. Emerson, of Winfield, was sum-
moned and went up on special train.
and after consultation with the atten
dag surgeon announced that death
must certainly follow soon. He died
the next day, surrounded By his wife
sisters and brother-in-law, j. b. GanO.
OF this place. He was not entirely ra-
tional at any time after arriving at Null
yane. Deceased was married here last
Christmas to Miss DoIes, daughter of
Mm. Doles, west of this city five miles.
DE was an industrious young man and
we'll liked by all who knew him.

The following communication was
addressed to the mayor and city council
of Medicine Lodge:
GENTLEMEN We call your atten.
ton to contract entered into between
your common council and the board OF
county commissions during the April
session of 1888 of said board, COPY OF
which we lind on the journal of the
county clerk. We desire to call your

tract, and it is expected by us that you
will at once make the improvements

This refers to the park grounds south
of the courthouse purchased by the
county. The city has agreed to vacate
Walnut street south of the courthouse
to Washington avenue, and fence the
lands and lay out and improve the park.
Charles and Ed. Sherman were dis
charged from further imprisonment in
the county Jail, they being unable to
pay the costs. Their offense was dis
turbing the peace of a public meeting
in Valley township.
John. A. Mari was given six months
in which to pay the balance of costs as
sessed against him in a criminal prose-
cution in which he was defendant.

The City Park

At special meeting, Monday night,
the city council considered and dis
cussed the park question. A year ago,
the cJunty purchased five lots fronting
on Washington avenue, south of the
courthouse, on the condition that the
city would vacate Walnut street be-
tween Kansas avenue and Washington
avenue, fence the vacated ground and
the land purchased and plant trees and
establish park. The county expend-
ed 81 $50 in the purchase, and the city
agreed, through the mayor and council,
to do its part. Up to this time, nothing
has been done. The property-owner
adjoining the proposed park have been
demanding streets, alleys, and drive
ways ON every side, and if these are
granted as asked for, the park will be
failure. AT the meeting Monday night
committee composed of Councilmen
Cook, Schmidt and Thompson was APP
pointed to confer with the county COM
missioners and see if they will not agree
to purchase another lot east of the
courthouse so that driveway or street
80 feet wide may be opened through
from Kansas avenue to Washington
avenue. It was also partially agreed
that an alley, 20 feet wide, would be
opened from Washington avenue north
to the rear of the Yant-Coan property,
so as to give them an outlet. The
council will probably order the park, as
now laid out, fenced and ploughed at
once. EYergreens will be set out out in
August.

Another KiOwa Failure.

A twelve thousand dollar failure Oc-
Cured at Kiowa, SINCE our last, l.. NJ.
Spencer, dealer in hardware and nipple
ments, Icing the unfortunate. 1t ap-
pears that he loaded up with wagons,
buggies, hardware and farm imple-
ments in anticipation of the opening to
settlement of the Cherokee Strip. He
found that he could not meet his bills,
and so, on the 18th, he gave chattel
mortgage to the Standard Implement
Co., to cover his Indebtedness, about
81, 500. This alarmed his other credit
ors, and especially the Parlin s. Oren-
dOrff Co., to whom he owed SIS 600
Their Mr.. Mercer came here Saturday
night, and Sunday night, or Monday
morning, at IL O'Clock, having secured
an attachment, with his attorney, Ches-
ter l. Long and Sheriff Stevens, he pro-
ceeded to Kiowa, and at 4 O'Clock Mon
day morning be attached the stock.
These gentlemen were preceded a few
hours by A. j. Jones, attorney for the
Standard Implement Co., who had taken
possession of the stock under the chat
tel mortgage referred to. Mr.. Spencer
had also given chattel mortgage to Sc
cure $4,000 alleged to have been due his
brother. The supposition is that his
entire Indebtedness will aggregate more
than $4,000. The stock will not pay
out. 1t is SAID that that he had been
selling machinery on very easy terms.
and that he had traded wagons and 9TH
er vehicles for very unsubstantial con-
siderations.

Going to See Oklahoma.

During the past week, an average OF
twenty-five wagons, containing from
three to ten persons have passed through
here on their way to Oklahoma. On
Monday fully seventy-fve outfits passed
here. Many of the people had with
them their live stock and farming I'M
PIGMENTS. They were generally from
Clark, Comanche, Kiowa and Pratt
counties. Barber county was represent
ed; but generally by people who wer
only going to look at the country. The
entire McAdoo outfit, started Monday.
They expect to be back by the middle
of May. The southwest part of the
county will send a number of outfits,
some to remain.
Of those who have gone from Medi-
cine Lodge we noticed Capt. Rogers.
Frank Holmes, r. A. Cameron, Judge
Edwards and S. L. Overstreet in one
outfit. Another was made up of j. n.
Titus, Dial Morris and j. r. Posey. Mr..
Titus has sent down wagon load of
millet seed. Fl. G. Thompson, W. D.
VanSlyke, ]. II. Ow ems and J. w. Up
Rerman formed another party. John
McGrath and M. w. Hunter went yes
terday with a restaurant outfit. I.G.
Cutlip ami Judge Carr expect to be at
Guthrie at high noon on the ed. Neff
McClearey will also be there or near
there. j. r. Brown, his son-ln-law, Mr..
Young, his son Frank and his daugh-
Jers, Misses Nellie and Laura. Most of
those mentioned are going simply "to

Accidentally Killed

AT Sharon, ten miles east of here, on
Sunday afternoon, the 14th inst, at five
O'Clock, Andy Bahr, son of Adam .Bahr,
aged years, was shot by a comuanion,
Albert Garrison, aged IS years. son of
Capt. VIM. Garrison, and at $50 p. M,
died from the effect OF the wound. The
boys were together at Mr.. Bahr's, halt
mile south of town, the parents hav-
ing gone to aneighpor's to visit. Young
Garrison took self-cocking 32-calibre
revolver, belonging to Mr.. Bahr, from
shelf, and was sitting IN chair ex-
aiming it, young Bahr kneeling on the
floor In front of him. Neither of the
boys knew that the weapon was self
acting. Without knowing what he was
doing. young Garrison pulled on the
trigger, when an explosion followed,
the ball taking effect over the right eve
of young Bahr, penetrating the brain.
and rendering him unconscious. Young
Garrison then carried his friend to the
door, and endeayored to revive him by
sprinkling water in his face, not then
imagining how serious the accident
was. Seeing that his efforts were USE
less, he notified Mr.. Huffaker and other
neighbors, and went up town for the
boys father, Adam Bahr, and Drs. w.
A. and J. d. Karr. They at once went
to the scene of the accident, but could
do no good. The boy died an hour and
half after the aocidont
The families of the two boys are old
time friends, we believe, and the bows
were great ''chums." The accident is
seriously regretted by the parents OF
both boys. 1t was another case of care
iessness, and is another awful warning
against leaving loaded firearms in the
reach of children.
The body was buried at Sharon Mon.

noon, or as early as he may desire. The
cans must be scalded every day, and no
milk, that is in the least soured, will be
received. His cans will be emptied,
and for every pound of milk delivered
he will be given, free Of cost, three
quarters of pound of SKINNED milk.
This he will take back to his farm, and
dispose of it as he may like. He will
not be compelled to take any skinned
milk.
On delivering his milk, he will be
given ticket, showing the pounds de-
livered. For these, about the 9Th of
each month, he will be given cash.
Every can of milk will be tested as it
is weighed, to see if it has been skim
med, and if it is in the least soured.
one bad gallon will spoil the entire work
of the day.
1t has also been arranged to collect
the pure cream from persons residing
too far from the creamery to profitably
haul milk in bulk. Five routes have
been agreed on, these being, to Sharon,
Deerhead, Mule Creek, Lake City and
MingOna, and all intermediate terrific
ry. 1t is expected that routes will he
established north and south, and, in
fact, in every direction within radius
of twenty miles. Experienced men will
go out every day, with wagons, with
skinner prepared for the purpose. and
collect cream from all who desire to
sell it.
Milk routes will also be established,
making it possible for the seller to get
his milk to the creamery at small ex-
pense. in case 1t is not convenient for
him to go. 1t is generally considered
that ten miles is about the limit at
which milk can be proftably hauled.
The creamery is owned by about 25
stockholders, whose interests are look
ed after by a board of five directors,
these being, for the first year, Henry
burst, president; J. NJ. DeLisle, sec
Rotary; Frank May, treasurer and w.
w. Cook and G. H. Eldred. The active
of the institution, at the
start, at least, will probably be in the
hands of Mr.. DeLisle and Mr. May.
The operating department, butter and
cheese making, will be under the super
vision of an expert. to be sent here by |
the builders, Davis & Rankin.
The output from the creamery Will,
at first, be sold to home merchants, and
on the general wholesale market; but
it is expected that. in short time. reg
ular customers in some convenient CITY
will be found. Good creamery butter
is never out of demand.
Estimating the average milk supply
at 900 pounds per day, the butter out
put will be, perhaps, $50 pounds per
DAY, II cheese is made, the butter out
put will decrease.

The Creamery.

! Medicine Lodge now has a first class
creamery and cheese factory, with a
| capacity for working 10000 pounds of
milk per day. Everything is complete,
and will be ready to begin operations
next Monday. The building was COM
| pleted two weeks ago. The machinery
arrived last week. and since then G.. w.
Boswell. the machinist for Davis &
| Rankin, the contractors, has been busy
with a force of men, putting it in po-
sition.
The building proper is 96x68 feet, two
stories high, with an ell for engine
room 16x20. The engine room has a
brick and cement floor. The 1O-horse-
power engine and boiler are in position.
Water is supplied from we'll, just out
side of the room, containing six feet OF
soft water, and being so close to Spring
creek, 1t will never go dry. Leading
from the engine rooms, steam pipes 20
to every part of the building, radiating
coils being numerous, this to keep the
building at an even temperature. And
pipes OopBAy WIG NoVoS UubOkI-
workers, cheese presses, and other ma
chinery, with hot water for cleansing
purposes.
The main building, below, is divided
into a milkreceiving room, office, work
room, cold-Storage room, and ice house
the latter being two full stories high.
The machinery in the work-room is all
of the latest improved pattern, made
so that it can be thoroughly cleansed
with but little work. The floor, even,
is so constructed that it can be flooded
and scrubbed every day. and every drop
of water carried off through pine i..o
the creek, away from the building.
The upper story, or curing room, is
arranged with shelving, to hold 800 full
sized cheeses. These must be turned
daily, and fresh butterrubbed into them
until they are cured. This room Is also
provided with steam pipes, for heating.
The creamery will start off with a
capacity of 10000 pounds of milk per
day, and it is expected that at least
10000 pounds will be brought in every
day alter it starts, increasing until the
middle of May, when, it is believed,
the full %, 900 pounds will be delivered
every day.
As a starter, so cents per hundred
pounds will be paid for milk. This
price will not likely be raised or lowered
before next winter. The probability is
that the price will go up then. At no |
time, however. will the producer net
less than Is cents per pound for the but
ter that is in his milk, There is moth
ing binding on the seller; he can COM
mence when he pleases, and quit when
he pleases-bring in much or little

are, that he shall deliver, at least once
day, pure, sweet milk, with the cream |

furnish him two or more eight-gallon |
cans. constructed with a cold water |
