Smut creek Is small stream in the

valley set trap for panthers, which he
thought had been stealing his sheep.
The trap was Of steel, extra large and
heavy, and baited with mutton. Four

the trap, and found nothing. He
omitted the fifth day, and when he
came on the sixth he heard grooming

Steamer Arabia Sunk in 1856
Found at Last.
Her Hull Opened Yesterday
Case of Hats Found.
WERE WATER SOAKED.
Steamer is Supposed to Contain
165 Barrels of Whisky.
Lies i'm the Missouri River Op-
pOsite LeavenwOrth.

Leavenworth, Dec. 13.-The river
steamer Arabia which was sunk in the
Missouri river just opposite this city
August 20, 1856, was uncovered yester-
day afternoon at o'clock by the crew
of wreckers that has been searching
for it for the past six weeks and a por-
tion of the cargo was brought to the
surface. The pumps We're kept going
all last night and today the search of
the hold of the vessel will begin.
The vessel carried, as nearly as can
be ascertained, 1876 barrels of Kentucky
whisky, about 80 crates of queensware,
a lot of heavy machinery and very
large miscellaneous cargo of merchan-
disc. 1t is the whisky and queensware
the wrecking crew is after and the
are in great glee now at the hattering
prospects.
It was on Friday last the searchers
hit the upper portion of the vessel. As
nearly as they were able to judge from
the appearance, they struck the right
side of the sunken boat. She lies al
most directly north and south and they
hit her abut the center. Late Satur-
day they got to the deck and yesterday
afternoon forced their way through the
water soaked floor and broke open
case of hats that happened to be the
first thing in their way Six of the
hats were taken out amid great rejoic-
ing.
1t was dark when the hats were
brought to the surface and the days
work closed and the night crew set to
work to pump the excavation free of
water. This morning they will make
careful investigation and tomorrow
when the new safety appliances reach
the place, the search for the barrels of
whisky will be undertaken in earnest.
They are supposed to be in each end of
the hold.
The hats are heavy wool hats, with
crowns about seven inches high and
narrow rims with raw edges. The bands
are cotton and are very narrow. They
were water soaked, of course. but not
muddy. and that convinced the men
the hold of the vessel was possibly yet
in a fair state of repair

F1oRENcE STILL ANGRY.
Evangelist Martin Denounced for His
Emporia Talk.

Florence, Dec 13-The interview
with the Rev. Guy Martin, the evange-
list who was forced to leave here be-
cause of his vicious attacks on the peo-
pie caused considerable Indignation
among the Florence people and mass
meeting was held Saturday afternoon.
The following resolution was adopt
ed:
We. the undersigned citizens of Flor
ence, do most emphatically condemn,
as wholly unchristian and uncalled for.
Martin, upon our fellow citizens and
the superintendent of public schools,
E c. Hickey. Mr.. Hickey has for
three years served the people of our
community efficiently and in man
ner to receive the unqualified and al
most unanimous support of every man,
woman and child in whose interest he
has IabOred. He has always in every
day life conducted himself in a manner
highly becoming a citizen and educator.
We have never heard, even in our
most intimate associations with him
use language unbecoming to decent de-
pertinent, nor have we known him to
transgress the laws of morality, intem-
perance or upright living We con-
denim the attack as cowardly, indiscreet
and worthy of severe punishment"

minister. Two Of the other resident

agreeing to sign and the other refused,
but said he did not indorse Martins
utterances. Another OF the resident
ministers left town before he could be

RELIC OF BOOM DAYS.
Buffalo Jones' Mortgaged Gift to Fin
ney County to be Sold.

Garden City, Dec. 13.-When Garden
City was a booming town and all west
ern Kansas was busy speculating in
real estate, Buffalo Jones laid out a
large addition and plated lots where
cattle are pastured now. To boom his
part Of town he built the Buffalo hotel
and gave block for a county court
house
About the same time John A. Stevens
was booming another addition and
built the Windsor hotel a three story
brick Not to be OutdOne by Jones he
also gave the county a block of ground
for court house purposes.
Stevens had selected a better location
than Jones and the latter built a stone
court house. Then he mortgaged it to
Mary w. Johnson for So. 900 and gave
a second mortgage for $4,000 to w. W.
Cook.
The county commissioners moved the
county offices and records into the
court house built by Jones, who per-
suaded the Representative of the peO-
pie to pay him a rental The town of
Garden City thereupon got permission
from the county to improve the Stew
ems court house site as a public park
and it is used for that purpose now.
When the boom failed Mrs. Johnson
and Cook brought suite fOreclose their
mortgage. Milton Brown represented
them He got service on the commits
siOners and secured judgment liens on
the court house for his clients.
r. w. Hopkins appeared for the com
missiOners and tried to get the judg
ment set aside. Whether the eastern
bondhOlders should get their court
house became a popular subject of dis
cuSSiOn and Hopkins had public Opin-
ion at his back in his effort to prevent
the foreclosure sale. He fought the
case warmly in the district court and
Judge Abbott set aside the judgment.
Brown carried the case to the Su-
preme court, where a decision was rem
dered Saturday, permitting Mrs. John
