Burglary at Benedict.

One night last week, burglars emit
cred the store of G. A. Sprague at Bene
dict and stole lot of goods. The next
day, three suspicious looking fellows
brought some boxes to the Missouri
Pacific station and wanted to ship
them to Texas. A search warrant was
procured and when officers begun to
open the boxes, the men ran. One
was caught and the other two, when
outside the depot, began shooting
through the sides of the building with
view Of forcing theofficers to liberate
their pal. Officer John'Knaus returned
their fire with shot gun and felled
one of the assailants to the earth.
The one who was shot will recover. He
and the other one who was captured
are in the Fredonia Jail and will be
tried for burglary and larceny at the
May term of the district court. No. 3
is still at large.

A Rare Treat.
"'Possum, he am good to eat,
Cyarye him to de heart"


Tuesday evening a general move
ment was noticed among the colored
population along Fourth street in the
direction of Mitchell's restaurant,
Each face wore an expression of vague
unrest, and each nose shifted the air,
like the war-horse shifts the battle
from afar. The trail ended at the
restaurant door, where the cause of
the colored mans hegira was explain
ed. Inside the place Messrs. I. d.
Boschert, Bert McCaslin, Frank Jones,
DR.. E. @. Hostetter, Pink Burris, f..
S. Arlington and George Fogleman
were enjoying the hospitality of T. Fl.
Cofman in the shape Of genuine
'possum supper.
The fragrant aroma of the 'possum,
sweet potato, corn-pone and gravy that
floated out on the evening air as the
front door was occasionally opened was
too much for the olfactories of the
original Tennesseeans, Texans, Miss
issippians and other descendants Of
African kings gathered outside, and
it was only by the influence of the more
cool headed leaders that the banquet
tiers were not mobbed.

Farmers Institute.

A Farmers Institute was held in
this city Tuesday and Wednesday of
this week, and was well attended con-
sidering the bad roads,, The ms
titute was opened Tuesday afternoon
with prayer by Rev. G. w. Stafford,
after which the address, of welcome
was delivered by z. Il. Postlethwaite.
j. p. Cone then read an interesting
paper on poultry, which gave some
valuable suggestions on this question.
His paper was discussed by Charles
Foetisch, E. p. Bodle, e. L. Tennis
and Others. e. r. Stone then read an
interesting paper on apples which
was closely listened to by all present.
Mr.. Stone gave some very valuable in
formation on the subject of apple Gull
ture, grating, etc. Next was Small
fruit culture" paper by Walter S.
Truitt. We were unable to be present
to hear this paper, but those present
consider it one of the ablest papers
they ever heard on this subject
Prof. S. &. Mason addressed the aud
fence at length on "Small Fruit for
Farmers Gardens" and Prof. G. G.
Georgeson on Farming as Factor in
National Prosperity" Messrs. Mason
and GeOrgeson are members of the
faculty of the Kansas Agricultural
College.
The program Wednesday consisted
Of talk on kaffir corn by H. Monta-
que, paper entitled "the dairy COW,
her feed and care" by Prof Georgeson
and talk by S. ]. Stewart on "Dairy-
ing in Southern Kansas" The Cap
tain's talk was short and to the point.
Among other things he said: mo &C.
cupation that / have any knowledge of
requires such constant and unre-
hitting attention as the dairy bust
ness. The man who believes his duty
to his country requires him to spend at
least one day each week, sitting on
goods boxes in his nearest town dis
cussing politics had better not al low
the dairy question to disturb his per
capita thoughts, for the chances are
16 TO that he will be a dismal fail
ure as dairyman, but the man who
believes success in any business can
only cometo him who is willing to de-
vote time, thought and labor to his &C.
cupation may safely engage in dairy
ing"
This meeting of the farmers and
talking over matters pertaining to
their calling is certainly step in the
right direction and more meetings of
this kind will no doubt be held in the
future.

Brute Brockman.

Brockman, the Labette county far
mer who treated his 16 year old daugh-
ter in such an inhuman manner as to
cause her death last November, an ac-
count of which was given in the TIMES
at the time, was found guilty of muir
der in the first degree, at Oswego last
Saturday. The feeling against Brock
man is very bitter, and had the YER
dict been different, the probabilities
are that he would have been made to
stretch hemp by the Infatuated citizens
As it is, he will be imprisoned for life.
1t is pity that Senator Farrelly's
bill; requiring governors to sign death
warrants had not gone through.
Brockman deserves hanging.

The record-union., 1897-12-04

said, the city keeps on the way it has
been going, it is only matter Of time
until the city pays all OF the taxes. 1t
was only right that the city should
extend helping hand to the county.
The Commissioner paid high compli-
ments TO Senator Doty and Assembly
men Sims, Ennis and Landsborough,
for their work in the Legislature for
the road, and to the members Of the
Board Of Supervisors, except the Chair
man, Jenkins, for its efforts in the right
direction
The speaker ripped Supervisor Jen-
kins up in several places, and prophe-
sled that his action in opposing the
road will react against him, whether
the bond proposition carries or not.
Jenkins, he said, does not know wheth-
er he is Methodist or Baptist, but
that sooner or later, the people OF the
county will show him what he is, and
relegate him to his proper sphere.
Joseph Quire was next called out
and made an eloquent appeal for the
road. He said there is not another
county in the State that has the nat
ural advantages that Sacramento has.
The city, he said, has the Capitol and
the railroad shops, and with these, it
is setting like hen on a porcelain egg,
waiting for something to hatch which
never matches. The city has allowed
good things to pass time and again, and
never stirred itself until an attempt
was made to move the Capitol, and
then the "old setting hen got out and
scratched gravel until the danger was
over"
The speaker said he hoped to see the
city arouse itself to-day, and reach out
and grasp the plum offered it by the
State. He closed by saying many
good and complimentary things for the
city, and asked the voters present to
turn out and vote for the road and
get their friends to do likewise.
AS a fitting close to the meeting
Highway Commissioner Manson gave
a practical idea of good and bad roads
by series of stereopticon views, show
ing all conditions of highways, not only
in this, but in foreign countries.

Nav Vote ON Certificates.

Voters whose names are not upon the
Great Register of the county printed in
1896, but who hold certificates of regis
tration and have complied with the stat
utory requirements Of years residence
in the State, ninety days in the county
and thirty in the precinct where they re-
side, will be privileged to vote at to-
days election on presentation OF his
certificate, it being a special election.
The fact that they have moved from one
street to another cuts no figure, so long
as they have been residents of the pre-
cinct for the past thirty days.
