James p Doyle of Scott Lake was mp
in Esquire Rowland's court Tuesday,
charged with assault upon one Hilburn
Williams of the same place with intent
to kill and murder. Now that is seri-
Gus charge and, if substantiated, would
place James in an unenvabe position.
If his intent was anything in the line of
doing bodily injury to Hilburn, he had
reckoned without his host for Hilburn
licked him to a beautiful finish-setting
his nose awry, moving one ear back,
and pummeling the side of his head to
a jelly. Aside from the intent" James
wasn't in the fight to degree worth
mentioning. He was held in 5000 to
the circuit court.
Last Tuesday the home of j M Brown
was invaded by goodly number of rel
atives and friends, laden with good

Among the visitors were Mr.. and Mrs.
ID. Woodman, Mr.. and Mrs. Edison
Woodman and their daughters Winnie
and Clara, Mr. and Mrs. Jason Wood
man and daughter, Mr.. and Mrs. Clar-
ence Richmond and daughter, Mr.. and
Mrs. +. M. Snow, with Mrs. Pritchard
and little Ruth, Mr.. and Mrs Frank
Webb and little one, together with Mrs.
Allie V. Hewson and little Fred, who
helped to swell the crowd that come to
pay its respects to Mr.. and Mrs. Brown
and their guests, viz: Mr.. @. w. Harris
of Corunna, Mrs. Coleman, Mrs. Howell,
and Mrs La Porte. The occasion was
one long to be remembered by all who
participated in it.
Our readers will remember the wreck
ing of train on the Grand Trunk near
Battle Greek on the morning of July 16
last, by which Fireman Grove was in
stantly killed, and the prevailing be-
lief that it was the work OF men who
went out on the big strike. The arrest
few days since of four men, all former
employees of the road and all strikers,
was surprise to everyone except, per-
haps, the officials of the road and the
detectives who, it now transpireS, have
been continuously on their track ever
since the occurrence and who claim to
have evidence of IA positive character
against all of them. Their names are
Stanley j. Knowles, John Bodewig, G..
w. johnson and Ernest n Jewett. 1t
is said that Bodewig has made con-
fession to the officers of his participa-
ton in the horrible deed. Bail in each
case was fixed at $40, 600 pending exam
ination, which will be had some time
next week.
A stranger with three young children
asked for nights lodging at Elijah
Warmers, Monday evening, and as Mr..
Warner never turns worthy person
from his door, they were taken in and
cared for. They were intelligent and
cleanly dressed. They stated that the
mother had died and that their crops
had all been lost by the hot winds OF
Western Kansas, and having nothing to
live on this winter the man sold his
household goods and started To go to
friends near jackson, this state. At
Buchanan their money gave out and
since that time they have been walking,
the father carrying the youngest child,
two years of age, in his arms. Before
they left, Mr.. Warner called on few
neighbors and soon had a sufficient
sum to pay their fare To their destina-
tion. They took the train from here
feeling very grateful to those who aided
them in their distress. the greatest
of these is charity y."-Ldooton Leader.
