They had to travel by wagon, and, as
the father would have large sums Of
money about him II was often prob

night. "My boy" the old man used TO
say, "it Is safe 10 stay at house where
there are flowers in the window"
La Grsnde Gazette: Many man is
willing to give the news, yet he does not
wish to be published as gossiper or
newsnonger. How frequently people
say, "Be careful what you say or do in
the presence Of newspaper man, or
your name will get into the newspaper"
Few people hold more secrets or guard
them better than the editors or report
ers. Should they tell one-half they

There were some very anxious and
badly scared people in Condor Tuesday.
About 10 O'Clock band OF cattle were
driven in northerly direction over the
hill from town. The EDITORS two little
boys, aged 5la and years, and little
Alvin Wilcox, aged 519, were playing to-
gether and childlike they followed the
cattle over the hill; unnoticed. There
being no houses or people within sight,
the little tots were as badly lost on the
prairie as needle in haystack. They
were not missed by their parents for over
an hour, and no time was lost in institu-
ting search for the little wanderers.
The entire country for several miles
around was searched carefully by parties
on horseback, but no trace OF them could
be found None but parents who have

could scarcely wiggle along. As result
