NINETY.NINE YEARS.

The st. Louis Globe-Democrat re-
calls the death of William i. Hoke
as follows:
Frank Williams, colored, was SEN
fenced to ninety-nine years in the
penitentiary by Judge Zachritz
Monday on a plea of guilty of MUIR
der in the second degree. Williams
crime was the fatal stabbing of
William +. Hoke. an electrician, EN-.
ployed by the Wagner Electrical
Company, about o'clock in the
morning. April %, on Chestnut
street near Twcnty.third street.
Hokc and a friend named Dick
Wright were out seeing the sights
of the town. aud finally. in a saloon
at Twenty.third and Chestnut, they
quarrcled with some strangers and
u fight ensucd. in which Williams
aided the strangers. Hoke was not
hurt, and soon after the fight lie
and Wright went out and started
west on Chestnut street. They had
not gone far when they met two
men in the shadows. One of them
attacked Hoke aud stabbed him in
the groin. Then both men escaped
i'm the darkness. Hoke was removed
to the City Hospital, where he died
u few hours later.
Several persons were arrested IN
connection with the crime, but the
killing was finally fastened on Will
liams, the colored musician who
had taken part against Hoke and
his friend in the fight in the saloon.
Williams admitted the killing,
finally. and shielded himself behind
an alleged justification of self
defense.
Judge Zachritz said he did not be-
lieve charge of murder in the first
degree could be established. and
asked Williams il he desired to
change his plea after the charge
had been reduced to second degree.
Williams said he did, and entered
plea of guilty. He received the
sentence without any show of emo
tion.

DEATH OF ]. a. TWITCHELL.

The many friends of ]. G. Twitch-
ell in this city were shocked on last
Friday afternoon to learn that he
had passed away at Greenfield. Ill.
Mr.. Twitchell went to Greenfield
Sept. 4 with the remains of his sis
ter. who died at her home twelve
miles west of this city, and while
in Greenfield was stricken with
typho. malarial fever. He had prior
to that time been in good health.
The best medical skill in Greenfield
was employed, but in vain, and he
passed away at the home of his
brother Friday, Sept. "a.
Deceased was thirty.three years
OF age and a most exemplary man.
January l, 1895, he engaged with
Charles J. Fribley in the hardware
and implement business in this
city, the firm name being Fribley &
Twitchell. During his stay here he
made many friends by his fair deal
ing and temperate habits.
He was engaged to be married TO
Miss Rhoda Bowers, teacher in
our public schools, and the we'd
ding was to have taken place in the
spring. During his illness, Mr..
Twitchell requested that Miss Bow
ers be sent for. which was done, but
she did not reach Greenfield in
time to see her intended husband
alive.
Funeral services were held in
Greenfield on Sunday, Sept. 26, at 10
o'clock a. m, conducted by the Ma
sonic lodge of that city, and were
largely attended.
Deceased leaves one brother aud
one sister to mourn his death, and
the sympathy of the entire commu-
nifty goes out to them and to Miss
Bowers.
Deceased was a member of Bax-
ter Lodge, No. II, A. F. and A. NJ,
and we understand left considera-
BILE property.

THE ELECTRIC RAILWAY.

The city council at Il regular
meeting held Tuesday afternoon
rc.enacted the franchise ordinance
which was granted to the South
east Kansas Electric Railway Com
pany June 20. The Old ordinance
died because the time granted by il
was too short. The re.enactnento OF
il, we believe. insurcs the building
of the road. The directors Of the
company have made a proposition
to other parties to build the road
aud the proposition has been ac-
cepted. Who the other parties are
we are not now at liberty To state.
As we understand il, there is now
nothing in the way of the success
ful termination of the venture. aud
il the parties accepting the propo-
sition did so in good faith. and we
believe they did, Baxter Springs
will get the coveted and much
needed road.

DISASTROUS BLAZE.

On Thursday afternoon of last
week every business house in the
town of Alton. 1. T., 81 miles south.
west of Baxter Springs, was burned
to the ground. The Frisco depot
aud IL car loads of wheat were also
destroyed. The business portion
of Alton consisted of about block
and half on either side of the

portion of the east side burned
about two years ago. however. The
fire of last Thursday destroyed
about twenty places of business
besides the depot and wheat above
mentioned.

The Twenty-ninth Anniversary
Celebration a Grand Success.

The twenty.ninth anniversary Gel
,t5.ation of the Ancient Order of
United Workmen, Select Knights
and Degree of Honor, which was
held in this city ON Wednesday Of
week was u grand success in every
way. The special and regular trains
arriving in the forenoon were hcav.
lily loaded and people came for
miles in vehicles.
AT II o'clock the grand parade
was formed on North Military street.
headed by the Pitisburg, Cherokee,
Girard aud Scamnon bands. which
were followed by large delegations
of Workmen and members Of the
auxiliary orders, and wendrd it's
way south on Military street. east
on River street, thence south Ia
Camp Logan, where the exercises
of the day were held.
The address of welcome, and il
was a master effort, was made by
Hon. J. n. Mcdonald of this city.
Mr.. McDJnald's speech was well re.
ceived and loudly applauded.
The response on behalf of the
visitors was delivered by Hon. +. c.
Weilep of Galena.
The next speech was by Mrs. +.
N. Forde of Emporia, chief of the
Degree of Honor of Kansas.
Mrs. Forde was followed by Hon.
Benz. Lillard of Fort Scott. who de.
livered an excellent address.
Following Mr.. Lillard an able
talk was made by II. Newberry of
Fort Scott.
Grand Master Workman John II.
Crider was next on the program
and he made an excellent speech in
behalf of the order. Mr.. Crider is
one of the oldest Workmen in the
state, and of course his talk was
well founded.
Grand Recorder +. NJ. Forde OF
Emporia was called for aud made
an interesting speech. Mr.. Forde
has been grand recorder of the or
der for years and years, aud what
he isn't able TO say favorable to the
Workmen is hardly worth saying.
The feature of the day. however.
was the prize drill given by the De.
gree of Honor. Pittsburg, Girard,
Galena and McCune participated
and the first prize was won by
Pittsburg, second by Girard and
third by Galena.
Owing to the extreme heat and
dry weather the day was somewhat
disagreeable, yet the crowd was as
large as expected and everybody
had good time. There was plenty
of music and other entertainment
for the visitors, and when they left
for their homes they expressed
themselves as well satisfied.
The celebration next year will be
held at McCune.
