GLENCOE GLEANINGS.
GLENCOE TOWNSHIP, April Is.
Will Staplin has recovered, but is some
| what weak yet.
Dora has been busy at putting in corn
on Miss Lahin's place.
Tim Mahoney has James Bowers to su-
perintend the affairs on his ranch.
Theodore Cruson goes to Wa-Keeney
to play for that dance Tuesday night.
G. W. Staplin corraled on his premises
yesterday three head OF Tim Mahoney's
cattle.
Miss Minnie Staplin was in Wa-Kee-
ney on Saturday, (27,) guest of Judge
Harlan's.
| OOrlando Carlson has fully recovered
from his sickness, and looks as if he never
had missed meal.
Dick Lahey has gone to st. Louis. He
says he would rather cook in restaurant
than round up cattle on our prairies.
G. W. Cross has been occupied with his
timber claim, and should all his trees
live. he has the requisite number planted.
Geo. A. Palmer has returned to his
farm. He spent the winter in Ellis. He
is one OF Glencoe's most successful farm
ers.
10. Coolies sod house is in the course
of erection. He has q nice claim, and
says he will put in twenty acres of mel
Ons.
Frank Cross, while on the way to town
last Saturday, discovered the prairie on
fire on Mr.. Callahan's premises, and as
sisted in extinguishing it. The origin of
the fire is a mystery.
W. X. Thomas is arrested, on informa-
ton filed by his wife, charging him with
incest with his daughter only twelve years
of age. Thomas lives just over the
line, in Ellis county. He now languishes
in the Ellis county Jail.
Irv. Orion continues to have those fits.
A short time ago his people thought him
entirely cured, but the malady has re.
turned. Mr.. Orion has homestead and
tree claim in section IA, but his health is
such that he can not be left alone.
Ed Hitch is at Wilson, training for the
fall races. Ed made a match to run MIR.
Eppler last fall, but Eppler kept from
the line, on account of sprained ankle;
so Hitch took the SIS forfeit He has Mt
done lick of work since, and he is ready,
or will be in two months, to run any one
he knows he can beat, from 40 cents down
to 100 yards.
The Rev. Henry N. Rogers had a seri-
Gus accident on the road from his place
to Ogallah. His team took fright, the
wagon tongue ran into the ground, and
the elder and the wagon started Heaven
ward, not like our good old Elijah, in a
chariot of fire. After ascending fifteen
feet or more, he came back, and broke
his arm in two places, and dislocated a
shoulder. Brother r. has our sympathy;
and with the skillful treatment of DR..
Chas. Messick, he is convalescing nicely,
and will soon be ready to continue his
pastoral duties, and deal out litigation to
all applicants.
Jackson has not got his war paint on
yet. A year ago he declared war against
W. F. King, claiming that Kings cattle
had destroyed s18 worth of buffalo grass.
Mr.. X. thought differently, and replevined
his stock. Jack went qnietly to his
tefee. and we began to think he was do
mesticated to the neighborhood and
thoroughly acclimated. But such was
not the case. About two weeks ago he
conceived the idea Dora Is rye field
would raise splendid corn. The land in
question belongs to Ed. Hitchcock. Ed.
has always had J. D. work it, as it is in
close proximity to Wilson house. Dora |
put this field in rye last fall, no objection |
being raised at the time to Wilson having |
the land; hence the dispute. I guess it |
will pass over quietly.
