vane, Kans., to identify the robber
killed by Night Agent Tyler We'd
nesday morning. He Immediately
recogn lied the dead man as his broth
er, Frank Smith. In response TO a
| telegram, cousin also came here
f1om Leon, Kans., who confirmed all
that the man Smith had said. They
said that the dead man, Frank, was
about % years of age. His parents
live near Leon, Kan, and Rev. Freed
received letter from the NJ. L. pas
tor at Leon, in reply to his letter OF
inquiry, saying that Frank Smiths
parents seemed TO be exemplary peo-
pie, being members in good standing
of the NJ. f. church. The body of the

to contradict the report that gained
circulation here 10 the effect that one
or both of the strangers became intox-
icated during their stay. He was
with the M up TO tie time of their de-
parture Friday night, and knows
that the report is wholly untrue.

Capturing and Killing of the Great
Leviathan." The Captain has been
thi rteen years a sailor, has navigated
many seas, and there is no living man
who can describe the wonders of the
vast deep and the monsters that in
habit it as he can.
Laurence Journal: Such acts as
that of the operator at lola the other
night will tend to discourage the in
dustry of the burglar. 1t is against
all pr ecedent for man to get up out
of sound sleep just for the pupose of
pu ting hole through the head of
bu rglar. Such action on the part of
the agent will no doubt be severely
denounced by the fugitive from JUS
tice who is acting as adjutant general
of the State of Kansas, and if the
agents of plutocratic corporations
continue to shoot at fellows who are
help ing themselves TO the effects of
the company, the militia will have to
be called out.

paper man and loyal adherent to
the fortunes of the "Man of Destiny"
