JOHN BELL CAPTURED.
The Murderer ef Byron cushman Captured by
the Sheriff Of Anderson County and
Lodged In Jail.

John Bell who shot and killed
Byron Cushman at Humboldt on the
night of the Fourth of July was
captured on the train last night and
lodged Ia the county Jail where he
will await trial for murder.
The capture was an accidental one
IN some respects, but was not SUR
prising In others. Sheriff p. E.
Keeney, Of Garnett, got on the mid =
night train to go to Chauute and on
entering the train found only a few
passengers In the smoker. He sat
down and gazed around at the few
present and his attention was attract
ed by one young man IN the car.
After studying the mans features for
he carried which was a description of
Bell and compared the young man
with the description. He was
practically certain then that he had
the right man, but made no move un-
til the train arrived at the crossing at
lola. He then stepped up to him and
laying his hand on the young fellows
arm said: 81 want you, Be :"
Bell wriggled aud fought for little
while but finally gave up aud ad-
mitted his identity aud allowed him
self to be taken to the county Jail and
locked up.
Sheriff Keeney wili get all the $500
reward for Bel's capture, but con-
siderable part of the credit belongs to
Sheriff Hobart of Allen county who
advertised Bell all ocer thu 'ry
so effectively that there was very
slight chance of his escape. And go
after wandering an outcast for a
little less than y month, John Bell IL
in prison aud will he tried for murder.
He told sheriff Keeney that he was
on his way to Erie togive himself up,
but lola is the place whore he should
have come were that true and the
plea will do him little good.

The City Council Fleets.

The city council met in the council
chamber last evening and in spite OF
the oppressive heat all the members
were present
The most important event of the
meeting was the submission of an
amendment to the present ordinance
IN reference to the sale of Intoxicating
liquors. The present ordinance fixes
the fine at not less than S25 nor more
than 500. This was left unchanged
in the amendment, but the following
provisions were added:
The party convicted to be fined in
the above sum, or to be imprisoned in
the county Jail for period not less
than 80 nor more than 80 days, or
both. Also on conviction to he placed
under bond not to engage in the
business In lola again.
The vote stood divided thus: For
the adoption of the amendment,
Munger, Ewart, tecil and Ausher-
man; against the amendment, Kelley,
Lug, Servey and Steyer. There be-
ing tie 1t fell upon mayor Mcclure
to cast the deciding ballot. He voted
"nay' and the amendment was lost.
The usual number of bills were pre-
sented aud allowed.
The report Of the police judge which
was submitted to special commit e (,
of the council some time ago was re.
ported upon by the COMMITTEES. The
report was referred back to the COM
mittee.
On motion of one of the councilmen
the meeting then adjourned out of
respect to the sitting heat.

ACCIDENTAL DEATH.

From the Ft. Scott Monitor
At 2 O'Clock yesterday the citizens
of the little town Of Fulton, twelve
miles north of here, were startled by
the report that Druggist f. +. Kinne,
OF their city, had committed suicide
in his store.
Having hardly recovered from the
excitement caused by the Mebuert
murder, near their town, but few
weeks ago. the report created con-
siderable interest.
A corOuer's jury was empsnelled
by Justice Dorsey and an inquest
held. 1t developed that the deceased
had been drinking heavily for several
days and had been u narcotics to
steady his nerves. After hearing the
evidence the jury decided that his
death had been caused by an over
desc of some narcotic, taken uninten-
TALLY and not with suicidal intent.
Mr.. Kline had but recently pur-
chased the drug store from Leon
Locke. having lately been in business
in Moran His wife had just finished
packing their household goods pre-
paratory to moving from Mora .
Fulton, when she heard OF her hds-
bands condition and drove from Mo-
ran, arriving there just about the
time he died.
Undertaken G. w. GoOdlander was
notified Of the death, and drove to
Fulton last evening, returning this
morning with the body.
The deceased Was member of the
%. o. F. and some other fraternal
order, In which he carried $1,000 in
isurance He was about 40 years OF
age and leaves wife aud one child
The body will be sent to Moran to-
morrow morning for burial.

An AnecdOte Of Mother McKinley's Visit tC

An AneedOte OF Mother Mckiuiey's Visit to
the White House.
"Just after President McKinley's
Inauguration he had his relatives
who were in the city at q family
dinner at the White House" says
the July Ladies' Home Journal in an
illustrated anecdOtal biography Of the
President. at was large company,
and very good dinner. Dear old
Mother Mckinley was there, but she
was not so very talkative. She was
too happy for words. But she kept a
sharp eye on the dinner, and no detail
of 1t escaped her. She was impressed
by the quantity of cream served with
the fruit and coffee, for she looked up
at her son in her sweet way and said:
William, you must keep COW
now
"Some of the younger members of
the family party found 1t difficult to
suppress a smile, but the President,
with his usual tact and graclousness,
replied;
"Yes, mother, we can afford to
have a COW now, and have all the
cream we can possibly use.'n

THE COUNTY ASSESSMENT.

The Commissioners Meet and Levy on the
Property for State, County and District.
The board of county commissioners
met in the court house yesterday and
made the usual annual levy for State,
County and Township revenues.
The board also stopped the pay
ment of a bounty on wolf scalps for
the reason that 1t was becoming too
expensive a luxury. Since the ist
of the year over 5000 has been paid
out In bounties In this county and
there seemed no decrease In the sup
ply. Ninety per cent of the people
in the county and 100 per cent of the
wolves will approve of the change.
The 1898 assessment given below
is incomplete in some points as the
board did not have full returns to go
by The first column of figures shows

last years.. The general tendency of
the figures Is downword and the sum

A Picked Party of Picknickers.

The picnic party advertised came
off yesterday as per announcement
and was a great success. The crowd
was not too large, just enough to keep
the boat well balanced in case
couple insisted in dangling their feet
over the same side of the boat, and
allowing room for expansion after the
usual picnic spread of Jidiculous
proportions had been safely slowed
inside. The girl was there who
would start something, with II
pertinaciOus preference for "Way
Down Upon The Suanee River" also
the boy with preference for some
girl whom he PERSISTED in de-
vouring withhis eyes even when his
mouth was full of spring chicken,
the people who were mad because
somebody wasn't there, those who
appeared to long for an eternel pro-
longation of the blissful present, and
those who had no idiosyncracies so
startling as to draw attention.
The party left Northrups' corner at
8 p. m. and started on the trip at 6 p.
IN. The boat penetrated the upper
Neosho as far as the old mill and there
a landing was made and the baskets
OF grub were turned into boys and
glrls,-quite sleight OF hand feat.

meet with the busses and reach home

TWO NEW sMELTERs.
1eRae & Daily and the cherokee-Lanyons Are
Definitely Located East Of lola on
the rlissouri Pacific.

1t is settled and the suspense is all
over. There will be two more zinc
smelters located in the gas field just
east of lola and work on their con-
struction will be begun within u short
time.
The two new concerns are the Nc
Rae & Daily smelter aud the Chero.
kee- -Lanyon smelter There have
been so many people here trying to
get in on the ground floor that they
have been very shy of each other and
particularly 30 of the newspapers. The
location Is now a matter of pu bliclty,
however, aud the REGISTER is happy
to be the fret to make the fact
public.
Some time ago, 1t will be remem-
bered, E. X. Taylor made extensive
purchases of land east of the city
near Rose Hill school house. He dug
huge pond and sunk gas well.
The well proved to be a gusher, in
the neighborhood of lO,O00,OO0 cubic
feet. Then it was that Mr.. McRae
stepped forward. A bout u quarter
of mile east of the first well a
second one was sunk and a few days
ago it showed up a flow of an equal
volume with the other. The Chero-
kec-Lanyons then stepped upon the
stage. OF course Mr.. Taylor was
acting for these parties and they
waited to show their hands until the
fuel was assured in abundance.
The location of the new smelters is
just west of the Rose Hill school
house oh the Missouri Pacific rail
road. The railroad runs right south
of the school house and the gas wells
are on Mr.. Delaplaine's land south
of the railroad, in the north half of
the southwest quarter of section 33.
24-l9. The Cherokee Lanyon smelter
will he built on 40-acre tract in the
southeast corner of the northeast
quarter OF section 32-24.19, just north
of the railroad on the section west of
the wells. The McRae-Daly smell
ter will be on twenty acre tract
Just west OF the other smelter. These
tracts are just three miles from lola
and will be connected with the city
by the railroad and also by the cleo
trio street railway.
These additions to the list make
five zinc smelters in Allen county,
two of them in lola, one near La
Harpe and about four or five miles
east of the city and the two mention
ed above three miles east of lola.
Three years ago there was not man
ufacturlng plant of any kind In the
county and two years ago there was
but one. The predictions of the REG
IsTER are coming true and they will
continue to come true, for the tale
of Iola's good fortune is not nearly
all told In the above. There are two
or three other large enterprises with
representatives in lola and the ex-
periments which they are making are
proving so satisfactory that there is
little doubt that there will be another
chapter to be written soon and added
to the story of the most prosperous
and promising city in the great state
of Kansas.
All Is we'll with lola.
