TWO NARROW ESCAPES.

Two of our well known citizens
had narrow escapes from what
might have been worse than death
on Wednesday of this week.
Capt. Berry, our well known JUS
tice, intending to take dose OF
paregoric for slight ailment, mis-
took "a bottle containing iodine for
the paregoric and took u liberal
dose before the mistake was discov.
cred.
J. c. Naylor on the same day
signed up for half pint of whiskey
at one of our drug stores and the
pharmaceutist inadvertently gave
him a bottle of beer which he al.
most exhausted before he discov.
cred the error.
Capt. Berry and Naylor are doing
as well as could be expected under
the circumstances, but they both
had a narrow escape-a very mar
row escape.

DEATH FROM A FALL.

Friday evening the citizens on
South Main street witnessed one of
the saddest occurrences that il has
been their lot to see for some time.
About Z o'clock Ed. Dansinburg
was standing near the front of Car
man & Sons grocery store leaning
against box. He had been drink
ing quite heavily for two or three
days, and as he stood there looking
rather queer, nothing was thought
very strange about il.
Suddenly he fell to the sidewalk
in a convulsion. As he fell his
head struck the edge of the stone
walk and the blood rushed from
his left ear.
He was carried to scab and taken
homo, and DIR. Scoles, assisted by
DIR. Payne, administered to his re-
lief. He was unconscious from the
first and died at 1l:90 O'Clock Satur-
day.
Dansinburg had been quits sue
cessful in mining ventures sud had
just purchased the Sunderland
property, corner of Eleventh and
Short streets, the past week and be-
come costly settled ia his new home
with his estimable wife and little
child.-Galena Times.

CAPTURED.

Zilpha White aud Lottie McMur-
try, who started out Wednesday OF
last week to join the dog show, were
brought home today by Marshal
Gill of Baxter Springs.
He found them wandering about
in that locality. They said they
started ON the hunt of the show but
could not catch il and had started
home. They also stated that they
walked to Melrose and Chetopa on
Friday.
They were indeed sorry looking
sights when they reached town this
afternoon. So dirty that they could
hardly be recognized. This will,
perhaps, teach them lesson not TO
follow show again. -Galena Times.
The two girls referred to were in
or near Baxter on Thursday night
after leaving home. On Friday
they started for Chetopa on foot,
but managed TO get Il ride II part of
the way. Somebody in Chetopa
paid their way back to Baxter Sat
urday and they were captured by
Marshal Gill in the northeast part
of town. Gill Immediately secured
carriage and took them TO their
homes in Galena. At midnight on
Saturday night Elijah White, father
of one of the girls, arrived in Bax-
ter from Columbus, having walked
from the latter place. He had been
to Parsons, Chanute, Cherryvale,
Chetopa and Columbus on a hunt
for the runaways and was pretty
hot under the collar when he ar
rived in Baxter. Had Mr.. White
found them with the show company
mentioned there would certainly
have been killing. Marshal Gill
tells us the girls are only II and 10
years old respectively, and he be.
lieves they are willing 10 stay at
home n0w

FIRE PROTECTION.

That Baxter Springs needs fire
protection no one denies. A. B.
Pomeroy, representing the Racine
Fire Engine Company of Racine,
Wisconsin, is in town talking chem,
ical fire engine to our people. Fol
lowing are some of the points
about the outfit he wants to sell us:
Chemical fire protection is used
very largely now in our large cities
where they have good water works,
eighty per cent of the fires of the
country being put out with cheniic-
al. II is very much cheaper, much
more easily handled, and does no
dam ,ge to goods or person. The
Racine engines are very highly rec.
commended and strongly endorsed
BY fire chiefs all over the country.
Seven or eight bundled dollars will
put in one sufficiently large for
Baxter Spriags and which can be
taken TO any part of the city with
out delay; always stands ready for
immediate use; can be re.charged
while in operation on the fire; can
throw two streams AT the same time
of either water or chemical; il costs
little or nothing to maintain them
and does not require an expert to
use them.
If we can not afford water we can
certainly afford chemical, and soon
get our money back On the insur-
ance we save. We need protection

DISTRICT COURT.

The case of the State of Kansas
vs. Jerry McMurray and WIN. Haw-
kins was tried in the district court
at Columbus last week. McMurray
and Hawkins were charged with
killing aud throwing Matthew Nc
Gurk into a shaft at Galena last
February. and although they were
charged with murder in the first
degree. the jury, after being out for
several hours, brought in a verdict
of manslaughter in the second de-
gree. The verdict is AN outrage.
McMurray aud Hawkins are guilty
or they are not guilty. II they are
guilty at all. it is of murder in the
first degree. There is really no sec
ond degree of manslaughter about
it. The jury, however, probably got
into wrangle and compromised
on the verdict rendered.
Vim. McGavick was tried for the
murder of his mistress, Mary Bris-
coc. aud was convicted of murder
in the second degree. The penalty
is from ten years to a lifetime.
The Stafilebachs, who are charged
with killing Frank Galbreath, whose
body was found in an old aban-
doned shaft at Galena few weeks
ago, demanded separate trials and
considerable time was wasted in
accommodating them. They were
all convicted, however, George aud
Ed. being found guilty of murder
in the first degree, and their mother
of murder in the second degree.
As we go to press the trials of Eb.
Martin and Jake Killian, who are
charged with the murder of John
Johnson and Claude Tuttle are be-
ing held.
The cases against the Warmers
will probably go to trial some time
next week.
