Burglaries.


Friday night last burglars affected
and entrance at the back window of
Owens & Sparr's clothing store and
Richardson & Co.'S dry goods store.
From the first named store they took
two Prince Albert suits, other cloth
ing, gloves, suspenders, silk handker-
chiefs, ETC., to the value Of about $3.50,
and about s25 in money. From Rich
ardson's store they took a large
amount Of silks, valued at about
81, 200. They stole tools from the car
penter shop just west of the Airing
ton with wAich they affected an en-
trance. The goods were carried away
in satchels taken from the first store.
Search for the thieves and goods
was instituted Immediately Saturday
morning on discovery Of the robbery,
and the last named firm offered a re-
ward Of $500 for the return of the
goods.
1t was ascertained that a one-eyed
man had been in the store the day be-
fore and acted rather suspiciously.
A slight clue was obtained by the
finding Of buckle belonging to one
satchels on the old Sana Fe track in
the northwest part Of the city. Also
a slip Of paper which had been torn
up revealing the address Of John Rob-
erts, Leland hotel, Caldwell, Kansas.
Sheriff Morse went to Wichita and
there obtained information which led
him to instruct Marshal McLain OF
Caldwell to arrest "SheeDy Sam
Alderman, the one-eyed man and the
man in his company. He then
went Immediately to Caldwell and
after several interviews with the
suspects telephOned Deputies B. E
Morse and Henderson, instructing
them where to find the goods and
they were secured.
Monday morning the two prisoners
were brought here and lodged
in Jail.
The officers did not disclose the
hiding place Of the goods, but it il
supposed to have been under or neal
the old depot in the north part Of
town, and the goods were not much
damaged. except from rough haHd
ling.
The parties arrested are supposed
to be one Moxey, a crook with head
Iquarters at Wichita and Sheeny Sam

amendment to that bill. In fact,
there was but about sixteen Repub-
lican members of the house that
wanted any railroad legislation and
during the consideration of the bill it
was openly charged by Republican
members that other Republican men,
bers were working in the interest Of
railroad corporations and the men,
bers so charged failed to deny the ac-
cusatiOn.
Mr.. HOch well knows that none of
the legislation for which he takes
credit could have passed the Douglass
house except for the support of the
POpulistS and if the politically ma
nipulated journal could speak the
truth it would condemn the speaker
pro TENS statements as absolutely
false in every particular.

BELLE PLANE, April 3, 1893.
ED. VOICE:-Last evening about II
O'Clock several Of the young men Of
Belle Plaine went down to the resi-
dence Of A. G. Forney with various
kinds of musical instruments and SER
enaded the house. In a short time
the midnight air was vibrating with
sweet melodies. Almost instantly
the dogs rushed out yiciously, the
chickens commenced Growing, the
calves believing and excitement
seemed to be catching. In a minute
Senator Forney appeared at the door
in his night dress and it being moon
light soon caught on. He said "hello,
boys! / heard the cock crow three
times; then the harps, trumpets,
cymbals and bones and l thought GA.
briel had come sure" At that mo-
ment two or three voices piped out
"April fool!' "Oh, yes" says he, II
see. Come in, come in. II / can
find my shirt and pants, we will have
some cake and apples anyhow"
Well, we did so. The young folks
got up and prepared US a sumptuous
repast, we rendered few more pieces,
spent a while viewing the photo
graphs Of the late unpleasantness at
Topeka, which the Senator takes
some pleasure in showing, had social
chat and pleasant time and two
o'clock found us in the road sing
ing, Queen Easter, how lonely / am
without you"
The Senator bade us goodnight by
saying, ''if you can't come in day
time, come any other fools night
you want to. Respectfully,

No Racing for Claims.

Here is an item of news from Wash
ingtOn that will be of interest to
everyone who has eyes on a quarter
section of land or town lot in the
Cherokee Strip. A special to the
Kansas City Times Tuesday quotes
Secretary Smith as saying that
there will be no race for the land
this time. The cripple on foot will
stand an equal show with the man on
a Kentucky thoroughbred. You can
tell all the people waiting around the
Strip they need not worry nor hurry.
Every man shall have an equal chance
with the others and be absolutely pre-
vented from getting anything better
than an equal chance. Those men
who have been spying about in the
Strip, scouting out the most eligible
locations, will not profit by it nor
stand any better chance than those
who never saw or set foot on the land
at all. No, | cannot tell what meth
cd will be adopted by the department
in allowing settlers to select their To-
cations. We have not got it thought
out yet. But | am determined that
it will not be the race-hOrse method
and want you to give it all the public
ity you can. Later on will tell the
Times what we will do"
