offered him large sum for the stones.

Lone Rock Riplets.

The snow has all disappeared. The
warm wind still continues to blow from
the south, accompanied by frequent
showers of rain, which is very unusual
this time Of the year.
Ten members of the X. of P. lodge of
this place attended the burial of Hon.
T. b. Hoover of Fossil Tuesday. His
death was great surprise to our people,
with. whom he was well and favorbly
known.
1t seems as if the 81 bounty on coyote
scalps is not sufficient, or else our people
lack the energy to hunt them; as they
seem to be about as numerous as ever
and are destroying much valuable prop
erty in the way of sheep.
Born, near Lone Rock Jan. 10, 1895. to
the wife OF J. S. Mckinney, a l2,lb girl.
All are doing well but "Mac," who is
swelled up so his clothes are too small
for him, causing him to go doubled up
like jack knife, or wagon-tire.
John NJ. Brown had the misfortune to
get the scab in one band of his sheep
and is giving them thorough dip
ping. Mr.. Brown says the next time a
couple of little runty lambs get in with
his sheep they will fare but middling, as
this dose OF soap will damage him al
least 5000.

Death Of Hon. T. 3. Hoover.

A gloom Of sadness wae cast over this
entire community Sunday upon receiy-
ing the news Of the death Of Hon. I. B..
Hoover at Fossil, Of apoplexy. He had
been enjoying his usual robust health
up to Saturday night. when he remark
ed TO his wife that he felt dizziness,
but he did not expect any serious result.
In the morning when his wife awoke she
was horriGed TO find her Husband
breathing heavily and unable TO speak.
A doctor was hastily summoned and all
that medical skill and loving hands
could do was done, but he never regained
consciousness, and died at 2 p. m.
The burial took place at 10 O'Clock
Tuesday, under the auspices of the X.
OF r., Of which order he was an homo red
member. II was his desire to be buried
by the Knights, and as there was no
lodge Of that kind at Fossil, members
from Condor went over, and in all there
were 28 members Of that order present,
who conducted the funeral services with
very beautiful and solemn ceremonies,
IL. II. Hendricks making an appropriate
talk at the grave, after Rev. Barnhart
had preached the funeral sermon at the
church. 1t was one the largest funerals
ever witnessed in the county.
There was not man in the county
who was better known TO everybody in
the county than was the always good
natured Tom Hoover. He never had
much desire to hold public office, al
though he has ably filled the position
Of several Of the smaller offices, such as
county commissioner, etc, and had re-
peatedly refused the nominations for
lucrative and more important positions,
TO which he could have easily been
elected.
He was born in Missouri in the year
1910, crossed the plains with his parents
in AS and settled in Washington county,
this state. He was married in '64 to
Mary Jane Chambers and shortly after
he and his wife moved to this county
and settled on the creek which bears his
name. Mrs. Hoover was the first white
woman to settle in this then wild and
unsettled comfy, which was at that
time overrun by warlike savages.
About IL years ago he embarked in
sha .aaeaha ndsaa h,esxaoa ~ Eeoatl ~
partnership with Tommy Watson, and
up to the time Of his death was still ac-
lively engaged in that business, from
which he had become wealthy.
He leaves faithful and loving wife
and six children, three Of whom are
married, to mourn his death, and they
have the profound sympathy Of the en-
tire community in their sad affection.
