How Eagles Catch sage Hens.

A gentleman who has lately been
cruising through the Powder River VAL
ley tells an interesting tale in regard
to the manner in which the eagles con-
trive to catch sage-hens. These birds,
like the grouse family, fly with great
swiftness, and in a stern chase an ca
gle is not in it at all with one of them.
In order that the eagle may dine on
sage-hen some hard work is necessary,
and the eagle has solved the problem.
As the gentleman was driving along
the side of mountain he started a
covey of sage-hens, which flew away
down toward the valley. Suddenly an
eagle, which had been sitting on the
low ground, rose up under the birds,
which Immediately rose high in the
air, while the eagle Topped up after
them. When they had risen high
enough another eagle swooped down
from above. The terrified birds scat
tered in all directions, but the eagle
singled out one, and as an eagle on the
swoop goes like a shot out of a gun. he
soon seized his bird, and the pair few
off to neighboring cliff to dine

will clearly see the rapacity of these
men. when, as I have shown, other
bakers all over the country have been
not only willing. but anxious. to fur
nish bread for the profit of 33E per
cent. on the barrel of -four. ! forgot
to mention. too, that in purchasing
barrel of -four the purchaser has a
barrel worth p cents. which brings the
price of bakers -four down to 50. so,
which, do not doubt, Is exactly what
they pay for it. You may also have
observed that the Bakers association
purchases -four for all of the associa-
ton, and that il is furnished accord
ing to the needs of the members. By
this means all are forced 10 use the
same quality of -four. let it be good or
bad, and the next time you get
poor bread, examine some other
bakers product, and the chances are
that the quality will be the same. This

IT NAY BE MURDER
NIKE MGINTY SHOT AT LAST
NIGHT BY ROBBERS.
His Arm Was Shattered and Charge
OF Shot Lodged in His Side-Five
Men in the Assassination Party.
Details are Meagre-Officers Gone
to Scent.
Il want a doctor. quick. !"

Il want doctor, quick"
These We're the words an excited man
from the country uttered, accosting a
policeman on the street late last night
He was directed to a doctor aud the man of
pills and the man who called him hurried
out of town. The latier's name was Clark,
SOL of well known farmer who lives a
few miles rorth Of town.
From what could be gathered from what
Mr. Clark said, a daring deed if not an act
usl murder was committed last night.
Everybody knows Mike McGinty who
lives near the sand pile on the Missouri
Pacific road. When darkness had fallen
over the home of Nike he retired to his
house and was passing away the evening
reading paper. About Q o'clock the win
dows were shattered by a discharge from
either a shot gun or a Winchester. An
Mr.. McGinty fell bleeding on the floor
with his arm shattered and a discharge Of
shot IN his side.
How bel secured help is not known
but a couple of children ran
10 the house of Mr.. Clark not far distant
crying for help. After as much explana-
ton as the children could give young
Clark was sent to town after a doctor
while his father went to the assistance of
Mr.. McGiuty.
1t was ascertained that there were about
five men in the assassination party, but
beyond that the details are very mea ger.
One report was that after the shooting the
parties broke iuto the louise and
robbed Mr.. McGinty of all the
money he possessed. about $50. An
other report was that Mr.. McG;nty was
mortally wounded and was in dying con-
dItiOn when the physician was sent for.
Sheriff Royse was notified and he dis
patched an officer at once to the scene 20
ascertain the particulars and any clue
there might exist that would lead to the
apprehension of the robbers and would-b
assassins. Mr.. McGinty is a widower aud
has the reputation of having a good deal
of money hidden about his premises, and
this, doubtless. was the incentive TO COM
nit the crime.
At 3 o'clock this morning the doctor had
not Vet returned nor had any further infor-
nation been brought to the city.

father teiegraphed Healy & Co., of the
stock yards, the facts, and shortly after a
report was in circulation that he died from
his injuries. johnny Mckinley was re-
turning from this city when the accident
occurred.
At the stock yards yesterday great soy
row was expressed over the accident as
the young man was regarded very
highly among he stockmen. He was the
son of Pat Mckinley. the we'll known
shipper, and was a remarkably bright
young business man. He was very
shrewd trader and assisted his father in

DR.. STITZEL'S DEATH.

Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock the spirit
of DR.. StitZel took its flight from its earth
~ tenement to the land above where there
is freedom from pain and sorrow. The
doc or died after a lingering illness which
extended over several weeks.
He has not lived in Wichita very long
but sufficiently long to have his excellent
manhood and fine citizenship qualities
thoroughly understood aud appreciated.
The funeral will take place to-
morrow from the family resi-
dence and the funeral services
will be onducted by the Grand
Army Of the Republic.
Dr.. Stitzl Is the fifth old soldier who
has died during the past ten days. Death
is dealing hard with the old boys of this
city. Gradually they are going 10 their
reward and it will not be long until they
are all gone and then the people will thor
oughiy realize their loss and their noble
services TO their country.
