night and ransacked completely. The
thieves were evidently disappointed in not
finding any cash in the drawer and con-
tented themselves by gathering up "A large
assortment of clothing and furnishing
goods. The matter Was reported TO the
police yesterday and one of the thieves
WAS captured by Chief Burrows in the
evening. He had only a small portion of
the stolen property in his possession and
refused TO disclose any information TO the
officers. He gave the name OF John Smith
and to such will answer TO the charge OF
bur glary before Judge Museller this morn

Attorney Morris.

Norris Jetty, who is we'll known in this
city. was shot al King1sher on Sunday
morning A telegram came to his wife
on Sunday, stating the fact, and that lady
left for the territory yesterday morning
How the shooting came about is not ex-
actly known. Ed Smith. the pugilist
came up from there Sunday night and he
reports that Jetty and half breed had
gotten into an alteration. The men got
into heated dispute when the Mexican,
without warning, drew revolver and
fired the fatal shot. The ball entered 70
the right of the heart, coming out just
above the hip bone A telegram
which was received by Mr.. Mat Wall,
states that Jetty cannot recover, and it is
very probable. from what could be learned,
that he is now dead man. He had many
friends here and word was eagerly sought
for yesterday, which might bring some
hope for recovery. Norris Jetty was re-
ported shot once before, but the report
proved to be fake, fact which his
friends hoped it might be in this case. Bnt
the news is true this time. He left for the
territory last Friday.

alton performed The doctor had intended
TO trepan the skull, but upon removing

home. His wish was also advocated by
bis wife and son, who were called to his
bedside by telegraph.
Superintendent Harding Of the Missouri
Pacific railroad rendered the use of his

the injured man. The car was placed in
the charge of Superintendent Webb, and
brought TO this city over the Rock Island
railroad, and transferred to the Missouri

HEARD FROM.
Eisor, the Miss,ng GodI Man, Writes. bu
the Antir Slill Enshrouded III Mystery.

Henry Elsor the man whose sudden dis
appearance was chronicled in these pages
Sunday morning, has been found, but the
mystery involved is still unfathomed
Henry Elsor is II well-to-do farmer and
has, up to this time, resided In or near
Goddard, living happily with his young
wife and little child. He was married Il
little over year ago. He came to town
last week and put up his team in one of
the stables, and since then nothing WAS
heard from him until Sunday, when his
wife was startled by receiving note from
him dated at Wellington. The principal
lines in it read: Il have lost my health
aud think it will be better for me to live
without you hereafter. / regret very
much to leave you as l love you much, but
what do ! am forced to do. You will
hear from me from the next station.".
Sheriff Morse of Sumner county was
Immediately notified by Mr. Burwell, the
father-in-law of the missing man. No
cause can be assigned for the mans ex-
ceedingly strange behavior, save that he is
mentally unbalanced His relations with
his neighbors and family have ever been
of the pIeasantest He has no debts to
speak of, has forty acres of fine wheat
about ready 10 harvest, plenty of stock,
farming implements. horses, ETC., in fact
all that one could desire. His habits have
always been the best He was apparently
much attached to his wife and surround
ings.
Up to a late hour last night not a word
had been learned of the unfortunate mans
whereabouts. His friends greatest fear is
that he is mentally derangel, which is ac-
cepted as the most PLAUSIBLE theory, he
may commit some rash act, or, perhaps, do
himself bodily injury. All his neighbors
and friends at Goddard are much alarmed
and systematic search will be made for
him.

Wichita and Hutch nson Meet in the Diamond
The Former Victorious.

The second game OF base bail in the open
ing contest between the teams of Hutchin-
son and Wichita was greeted with an
enthusiastic audleuce. The first game
had whetued the appetite Of the team Of
the Peerless Princess for victory, while
the defeat of the team from the salt
metropolis tended to inspire the boys with
renewed energy for the affray.
Cade. King and Chambrim represented
the battery for Hutchinson, while Collins,
Martin and Perrin stood for the home
team. Collins being placed in the box the
first six innings, and Martin the last
three.
While Collins was in tho box the Hutch
inson team made only two hits, while
Martin only one hit was given to their
credit.
King took his position in the box for the
visitors. and the boys soon became con-
versant with his curves and sent them
snake like, spinning through the
grass to she chagrin of the
operator, and King who called
Chambrin TO take the box after the sixth
inning The home team took on new
energy, while the visitors became dis
mayed, as up to the END of the sixth in
ming they had not a single score 10 their
credit, and had not Lauck became frisky
on the base, there is no telling when the
sixth inning would have ended, but by
Lauck going out on base and two other
members of the home team tanning out at
wild balls, the Wichita boys were sent to
the field with ten scores to their credit,

Great interest was manifested in the
game throughout, aud it is generally
conceded that the players have been placed
in their proper positions, aud no changes
are contemplated by the management at
present
The Hutchinson team played a good
game, and their fielding and work on the
base was highly complimented. but their
defeat was que TO being unable to solve
the mystic twisters of Collins and Martin.
While Chambrin was in the box for the
Hutchinson team his curves were not hit
by the home team. but it is believed that
had the same effort been exerted in the
latter part of the siege as was displayed at
the beginning his deliveries would have
been sent TO the field.
These first games were highly success
full 10 the base ball enthusiasts. The boys
looked very handsome in their new NOR
DON suits, which by the way seems to be
n lucky color. steps are now being taken
to arrange games with Newton, Oklahoma
City aud other cities which have mines. It
has long been the ambition OF base ball
enthusiasts to get crack nine for WIch-
tia, and Judging from appearances as they
are at present, their fond hopes are being
realized. Manager Maret is doing all he
can to make success OF it aad he will no
doubt now succeed Wichita ought to
have the best nine in the state anyway,
to take the first place in the state.
