The Traders Bank hangs up a
neat sign TO the effect that il is pro-
tected by a policy in the Bankers
Mutual Casualty Company. This
refers TO an insurance policy issued
by that company to the bank, in
Identifying II from loss that may
be caused by burglary or robbery
of the bank, and secures the bank
aud its patrons from danger of loss
on that score. The company issu-
ing the policy pays the loss occa-
stoned, and in addition TO this
money protection, has an efficient
detective service which is at once
put on the track of criminal who
iuterferes with any bank holding a
policy in the company, and bring
ing the burglar or robber to bay
and trial regardless of the time or
effort required. Punishment is sure
to overtake any person who attacks
the bank in the way Of burglary or
robbery. The patrons of the bank
can readily see the great merit of
such protection.

A SERIOUS CHARGE.

On Thursday night of this week

"Knot-head," was arrested by Dep.
uty Constable Peterson, Marshal

trary to the statutes made and in
such cases provided. She further
charges that she was sick in bed at
the time aud was unable to defend
herself.
Lamar was taken before Justice

bond of 500 for his appearance for
preliminary examination on Mon

THAT ELECTRIC LIGHT SUIT.

The city of Baxter Springs has
been sued for about $500 by the
Warmers. They claim this amount
10 due them from.the city for lights
furnished by them. The city, how
ever, has a bill against the War
ners big enough TO Offset their
claim. and it 10 not at all probable
that the Warmers will win out.
About four years ago the War
ners were notified TO run their
plant all night, according to their
franchise, or take off the city lights
altogether, and were given written
notice by the city council that no
lights would be paid for unless
they were furnished all night. This
was four years ago, or will be next
spring. Col. Warner asked for ten
days time to see about the matter,
at the end of which time he was to
meet the council. As he has so far
iditCu W mCCt tuC COuuCi VIC dtC
led to believe that the ten days
have not yet expired. At the time
this written notice was served, the
Warmers were rendered warrant
for services rendered up to that
time, but the warrant was refused.
The electric light plant and plan
ing mill are each liable for one
third of the expense of keeping the
dam, wheels, penstock, ETC., in re.
pair. The Warmers until recently
owned both these plants, and az
the city kept up the repairs, and
has not been reimbursed by the
Warmers, of course has big claim
against them.
We will watch the case with a
great deal of interest, but imagine
the Warmers and their attorneys
will have a mighty hard time get
ting anything out of the city.

MEAT For THE POOR.

The knights of Pythias of this
city will line up ten on side a day
or two before Christmas and have a
grand rabbit hunt. The losing
side, or the side that kills the least
number of rabbits, will "set up"
the oysters to the winners. The
rabbits killed will be given to the
poor for Christmas dinners. This
idea originated with G. Wash Pc
,erson and Frank Hemstreet, and
is a good one.

Major Geo. S. Doane, who has
held the Office of United States In.
dian Agent at the Quapaw Agency
for the past four years. has been re-
lieved and has gone TO his home in
Baltimore, Maryland. Now that he
is gone, we will take back part of
the hard things we have said of
him, but still hold to the opinion
that Maj. DOane made a very poor
official. The new agent, Edward
Goldberg, of Wichita, will, we be-
lieve, being q Western man, Gil the
office TO the satisfaction of all.
