E. S. Knight was out at Bur
lington last week trying the case
of Wilcox VS.. Cooke, a contested
election case. Mr.. Knight won
the case. Edwards of Bur
1ington, and Gill of Colby, were
for the defense. Here is what the
Burlington Republican says of the
lawyer from Goodland: "Mr
Knight presented his side of the
case in a very strong light and
those favoring both sides were
loud in their praise of his ability
as an attorney" Mr.. Knight IS
also retained in the defense Of
four men charged with stealing
horses, who are in jail at Burling-

The Rock Island railway is
showing its interest in the rain
problem in a practical way. On
Friday of last week caboose
was fitted up for the rain making
business, and Messrs Hutchinson
and Jewell were detailed to go
with the outfit. They were to
operate at Mankato, Jewell coun-
ty Kansas. We have not heard
what resulted from the operation.
At any rate Sherman county got
a good wetting down on Sunday
night and Monday, II hours of
steady rain, nearly three inches
of rain having fallen.
Monday morning the good peo-
pie woke up to find the prairies
and streets covered with water.
The rain began falling about II
o'clock Monday morning and kept
up for about II hours. In this
short time nearly two inches OF
rain fell. This will assure the
wheat crop and will put the other
cerals in such shape that about
one more wetting will fix them
all right. Sherman county is
right in it, and this fall she will
show to the world who raises the
crops in northwest Kansas.
Mrs. Berry of Cawker City,
Kan, lectured at the Congrega-

Decoration day.
There was as little excitement
in the city Sunday morning when
it was known that Bradley and
Kennedy had missed FIVE head OF
horses from their stables. The
Inference was that they were
stolen. but a search being made
resulted in the finding of the
stock.

A SAD ACCIDENT.

Mr.. and Ms. George Austin of
Edison, are mourning the loss of
their little 4-year-old daughter
Ora.
About a o'clock Tuesday after
noon as the mother was prepar-
ing to go out about the barn to
feed some young turkeys that had
been kept there, the little one ran
out to the barn a few moments
before her mother. The mother
coming on into the barn was hor-
rihed to find the dead body of her
little child buried beneath a num-
Der of sacks of wheat.
During the heavy rain that oc-
cured here the 22nd a number OF
sacks of wheat was piled one up
on another against the wall OF
the barn to make room and also
afford shelter for the grain, and it
is supposed that she tried to climb
upon the sacks, or in some way
causing them to tumble down,
crushing the little one to death
and breaking her neck.
The bereaved family have the
sympathy of the whole communi-
ty in this terrible bereavement.
The funeral services were held
at the home Wednesday afternoon
and the remains laid to rest in the
Edison cemetery.
