FRED KOBLER IN JAIL
Arrested on His Island Under the Charge
OF Insanity.

Sunday morning Deputy Sheriffs Lee
Cone and @. c. Kensley went down 10
the island near Derby to arrest Fred
Kobler on a charge of insanity and were
very successful.
They expected TO have a fight with
milf for he was said to be vary danger
Gus the previous day. With this antici-
patton they were cautious and made
their descent upon his shanty so early
that he was still lying down. When
they entered the dugout he was very
much surprised and was preparing TO
show fight when the two officers put
the handouts on him. That done he
was peacable and came with the officers
without a struggle.
Mr.. Kobler has been living on the is
land for some time. He has a dugout
there that is a curiosity. II is not
more than ten feet square and is very
sparsly furnished with one three-legged
stool, one soap box for a table. a skillet
and little stove with two holes. There
is not the sign of a bed there and a
hole through the roof was the only sug-
gestion of a window. Spread out near
the stove was a pile of rags without
shape or color, and they were supposed
10 have done duty as a bed for many
years.
Kobler, it appears, has lived on corn
all winter and IL made him 50 sick that
IL is given as the basis for his violence
a few days ago. A few neighbors
knew of his condition and procured
him medicine but he would not use ii,
and threw it away.
All the clothes he had on when taken
was a pair Of trousers or rather a
specie Of boomers made Of gunny sacks
by himself and II there was a spot on
them larger than a mans hand that did
not have patch on IL the sheriff and
his deputies were unable 10 find Il. He
was his own shirtmaker too, evidently,
for he wore one OF peculiar make and
texture. II was all ne had apparent
~, and there is no doubt but what he
has worn u for a long time
There was 2 report At the sheriff's
Office. but il could not be verified, that
during the past week he had a fire blaz-
ing on the floor OF his dugout and that
be was dancing about IT Ike a Conan
che Indian and shouting: Sacrifice,
Sacrifcei''
The island is his by the rights OF 4
squatter. II contains about twenty
seven acres, and whatever little t!Ilage
that is there IS indiferently done.
Ii IS said that Mr.. Kobler has q broth
er in this county who viii provide him
a defense against the charge OF inS9ai-
~.
We note that Mrs. Zoe Norris OF this
city has two accepted sketches in Har-
per's Round Table. where nothing but
bright things find an entrance. Mrs
y. IS unQuestionabiy an industrious
writer as is evidenced by her many
successful contributions 20 the maya
zines Her forte is society, its 6oiags
and sayings. she being especially keen
delineator OF character. However. in
the field Of romance she Qually delights.

HoNoRs FOR bob" LOOSELY
All Caldwell Turns Him Out to Eid HIM
Farewell

Farewell.
]. E. Wells, again writing from Cald-
well about that Santa F'e change, says:
Yesterday registered the exit Of the
passenger service of the Santa Fe from
Caldwell to Wichita After this Cald-
well, Wellington, Belle PLANE and Null
vane will be dealt by entirely. 1t
knocks Caldwell out Of her Sunday
mail. There being no Sunday morn
ing Rock Island train, the Santa Fe
until the present change, carried 1t,
and to say the people are not IS ex-
pressing it rather mildly. When the
people of Sumner county voted the
bonds for the Santa Fe there was one
very important clause made and that
clause was to the effect that two pas
senger trains were to run daily between
Caldwell and Mulvane, this clause has
been grossly violated for the past two
years and now it is entirely disregarded
the company has, in other words, strik-
en- it out. But the people of Sumner
county have been trifled with long
enough; they are going to call a halt
in this matter, If they have any rights
they are going to have them enforced.
Tine exit of Bob Loosley's train from
Caldwell was a gay one. Every man,
woman and child in Caldwell knows
Bob and likes him, and as a conse-
Quence nearly 500 people congregated
at the Santa Fe depot yesterday evening
TO see him off. The band bid the crowd
to the depot where a general leave-tak-
ing occurred. Bob" made very ap-
prOpriate little speech to his friends,
regretting his departure, but hoped to
be back with them sometime. Joseph
w. Nyce on behalf of the people an
swered and eulogized on the Santa Fe
as it used to be and as it now is. l {
was very witty and replete with good,
sound sense. The people along the
line are very sorry for the change and
hope the officials will see their error and
replace this train and old time card.

Slight Contraction In Business.
New York. May 4.-The only appre-
ciable effect OF continued engagements
OF gold for export on today's stock
market was a contraction in business.
Trading was on q limited scale but. 50
far as it went. was fairly well distri-
buted. In no instance reducing Ameri-
can Tobacco TO full stock was the 10000
share market reached. The influence
of the gold engagements. amounting 10
ationfi ,00S002. trex5wstheem ffsetl byo
s., 80, 600. was offset by the extreme ease
in money, further reported improve
ment in general trade, more encourag-
ing advices regarding the progress made
in planting the crops. and a higher mar
ket for American securities in London
and a moderate purchase in this market
for that account Railroad earnings
continue mainly favorable and in gran
gers the exhibit or the ST. Paul for the
fourth week in April. showing an in
crease in gross OF S75,0l2, and for the
month an increase OF 1912. sos. exerted
a strengthening influence. All OF ulne
gold engaged for shipment goes TO Ger
many, and indications point 10 the out
go OF similarly large amount at the
end Of the week The bold is exported
under exceptional conditions, a pre-
MUM being paid for the metal inciden-
tai TO the reformation Of the Russian
currency system. The premium OF 3-l6
per cent required for gold bars ap-
parently renders impracticable the ex-
port of gold in that form. The fore
going exchange market reflected freer
drawings OF bankers bills against the
