nomination for this office.
Last Tuesday afternoon the residence
OF George Scholield, the well known
young attorney-at.law, was completely
destroyed by fire. Nothing remains but
the charred and blackened walls and
raiters. The building was insured for
$1,000 in the Imperial OF London, and the
furniture for $3.50 in the same company.
In financial sense alone, the loss is
heavy, as the insurance does not cover
the loss.
Caleb B. jenkins, OF this city, and Miss
Florence l.. Morgan, daughter of f. l..
Morgan, of North River, were joined in
matrmony by Rev. l.. d. Wells, at the
Montesano hotel, last Monday.

The Countryman Case.

Our readers will remember that on
the evening of August 1st, 1895. a
chivarie was given at the home of
Daniel Countryman in honor of the
wedding of his son Luther, and that
Joe Zigler was shot in the leg. Coun-
tryman was arrested and placed in
Jail. but gave bond for his appearance
at the October term of court. The
defendants attorney, John E. HeSsin,
asked for continuance, and said that
he would not ask for change of
venue, to which the states attorney
consented. The case was next called
at the February term of our court,
when the defendants attorney asked
for a change of venue, which was
granted and the case set for trial at
Hays City, Monday. May 25, 1895.
The case was called last Monday at
Hays. but owing to slight error in
the transcript it was postponed until
Wednesday morning. Little trouble
was experienced in getting jury. as
the people of Hays were not familiar
with the case. Wednesday afternoon
and Thursday were consumed in ex-
witnesses and pleading of the
lawyers At 1920 Thursday night
the case went to the jury. The jury
was only out about 30 minutes and
brought in a verdict of assault and
battery with intent to MAIN. Judge
Monroe will pass sentence Monday,

NOTES

NOTES
A number of the Wa-Keeney gradu-
ateS, teachers and other friends at
tended the commencement exercises
at Collyer. Their presence was much
appreciated by the Collyer class.
Sup't A. S. Peacock spent Friday
and Saturday of last week at Collyer
in connection with commencement at
that place. He was also in attendance
at Memorial services there on Sunday.
The Collyer school closed last Fri
day. The teacher, w. III. Swiggett,
after nine months hard and success
full toll in the school-room, is entitled
to a little recreation, which he will
probably take visiting the scenes of
his early boyhoOd in Iowa and else
where in the east.
The people of Collyer talk of cnlarg-
ing their SchOOl-roOm by taking out
all lobby and yestibule walls and bull
ing new entry. They are justly proud
of their school property, which is well
fenced, well set with trees and pro-
vided with successful irrigating
plant, but we wish to suggest that it
will not be long at the present rate of
planting before the grounds should be
enlarged also.
We regret our inability to be pres
ent, but. by having several special
correspondents on the spot, we are en-
abled to give very complete report
of the COllyer commencement exer-
ciseS, which were success, as was to
be expected when school officers, teach
ers, superintendent, pupils and pa
irons all work together for the
advancement of educa ton. Public
servants who thus show their interest
and prove their ability and fitness by
practical results should be continued
in positions of trust.

LooMILLER STILL AMONG THE LIVING.
The Blind Man Is In Oklahoma Territory

J. G.. Loomiller is still alive and hale
and hearty. The report published a
short time ago that he was lynched by
mob in Oklahoma for murder he
was suspected of having committed
near Quincy, Illinois, has turned out
to be false.
Abe Frakes, register of the land
office at Wa-Keeney, was in town this
week and says he received a postal
from Loomiller on the 10th. The
postal acknowledged the receipt of
draft Frakes had forwarded. Loomil-
Ter is living at Lahoma. Okla. and he
made no mention to Frakes, who is an
intimate friend of his. concerning his
reported lynching. Frakes, however,
acquainted Loomiller with the rumor
last week.
Mr.. F'rakeS says he has known Loo
miller for ten years, and thinks if the
blind man lives until he is hanged for
the Quincy murder he will live long
time Loomiller told Mr.. Erakes when
they parted last February, that he
would return to Wa-keeney in about
five months, and will therefore pass
through Russell in June or ] uly.-RuS-

Collyer Commencement.

The first commencement exercises
ever held at Collyer occurred there last
Saturday evening.
The large Congregational church
was conveniently arranged and taste
fully decorated for the occasion, but
was far too small to accommodate all
who wished to secure cOmfOrta BILE
seats for the evenings entertainment.
The room was filled to overlooking,
and many stood patiently about the
open doors and windows. The large
number who thus showed their inter-
est in the cause of education and the
efforts made for their entertainment
speaks well for the people of Collyer
and vicinity. We trust that the Gus
tom so happily inaugurated may be
continued from year to year, and, re-
cogniZing the energy and enterprise
which brought this initial commence
ment to successful termination, we
are confident of many more.
The graduating class of three led
by their teacher, w. F. Swiggett, and
accompanied by several of their fell
low students and the county Superin-
tendent, took their places upon the
stage, timing their steps TO beauti-
full march by Mrs. L. S. Myerly, organ
iSt.
Graduate Louis Larson made every
body feel at home by short but
happy address of welcome and Salu-
tation.
Chas. Scott's grafton showed much
deep study and preparation. Mr..
Scott is to be congratulated upon his
success despite many discouraging
conditions.
The valedictory address of Miss
Maggie Swiggett is also well worthy
of commendable notice. Miss Swig-
gett was the recipient of fine wreath
and a large bouquet of splendid white

exercises instead of the one due just
before the opening. as intended. They
were sent by her brother, Samuel
Swiggett, former Trego county
teacher, but now engaged in the tail
oring trade in indianapolis, Indiana.
Miss Swiggett'S brothers are all teach
ers and She took her latter lessons
from w. F. Swiggett in district 81.
The recitatatiOnS by other students,
some of whom expect to graduate next
year. were all good, well rendered and
well received. The experience of the
evening will be of great service and
source of inspiration to these pupils
in preparing for next years exercises.
The music, both instrumental and
vocal. by Mrs. Myerly, Mrs. Bower and
Mr.. league, was all excellent and
much appreciated.
J. H. Deatrich. clerk of the school
board, delivered the class address and
presented the diplomas in a few well
chosen words.
The good order maintained through
out was noticeable. The following is
