]. B. BAXTER FOUND DEAD.
Well Known South Dickinson Farmer
Passes Away.

Thursday was found at the Mis-.
souri, Pacific crossing close to the
meridian line three miles east and
one south Of Gypsum and four miles
west Of Carlton the dead body Of John
B. Baxter, one Of the well known citi-
zens Of South Dickinson. He had
been in Gypsum the day before and
his team came home in the evening
without q driver. His friends were
alarmed and searching for him found
the body as stated. 1t was at first
thought that his neck had been brok.
en- by a fall from bis wagon but the
coroner's inquest showed that he snf-
fered from a paralytic stroke and
death resulted from that and the fall.
The particulars Of the death Of J.
B. Baxter Of Holland as given by the
coroner's jury show that deceased had
been thrown from his buggy near the
crossing and striking on his head
met instant death. Mr.. Baxter left
Gypsum about 8 P. m. Everything
seems to have gone all right until the
horse coming upon the crossing which
is quite high, became frightened and
wheeled around; there is ditch near
the west line and the horse ran into
this in such a way as to throw Mr..
Baxter out with the above results.
The horse got loose from the buggy
and went home. His family has the
sincere sympathy of a wide circle of
friends and acquaintance.

AFTER Ed LITTLE.
Peculiar Legal Situation for an Abb.
lene Attorney.

TOPEKA, April 2l.-Ed c. Little
brought proceeding in the supreme
court during the winter to GUST Mr..
Mayrath, county commissioner Of
Ford county. Mayrath is Republi.
can. The action was Quo warranto
brought in the name Of the State with
the consent Of Attorney General Boyle.
The court decided that Mayrath ought
to be ousted and handed down an
opinion to that effect, but did not
make an order. Ed Madison, May
rath's attorney, filed an application
for a new trial and while it is pend
ing the court granted stay Of execu-
ton. ns
Little, it is stated, went to the
judges to ask that an order be made
to Dust Mayrath, but the Judges did
nothing. He then went to the clerk
Of the court and secured certified
copy Of the judgment which he for
warded to the sheriff of Ford county
asking him to serve it. The sheriff
served the copy which had the effect
Of ousting Mayrath, exactly what the
supreme court did not intend to have
done. Madison yesterday telegraphed
to Judge Doster to know what the
strange proceedings meant. The
court took the matter up with Judge
John Martin and, when it learned the
facts, wired Madison that no process
had been issued by authority Of the
court. Little will be called on for an
explanation X. C. Star.

when the Waterman Of the squadron
looked through q telescope at Havana
this morning be saw q peculiar thing.

sheets to keep of flies. As the squad
ron drew nearer he found that the
sheets were made Of -four sacks sewn
together and he read the words
"Johntz Bros" and Getty Mills" 1t is
agreat advertisement for the Abilene
mills.
S. A. Flenner ia one OF the real
patriots Of town. He says he is to
eternal busy to 60 to war but II Uncle

will guarantee to give them q licking
that they will never get over. II each
American will do as well the war will
be short.

chance to 60 to the front and win
glory and rank he has been detailed
to remain with a dozen soldiers and
patrol the reservation line In north
ern Montana to keep q lot Of Digger
Indians from stealing the tin pans

deserved better luck.
