there and accosted by one of the
boarders. Later he went on and
spent the night near the Missouri Pa
cltic stock yards. At o'clock Sun
day morning, tired, almost penniless,
prey to the widest thoughts, he
came back, walked into the jail yard
and called to under sheriff Brister
and was locked up.
StrlcklaDd's two wounds proved too
far to one side to be dangerous and
both were dressed. He never lost
consciousness.
The police were early on the scene
and searched the town and sent print
ed descriptions of Msuzy all over the
country aud telegrspbed the authori-
ties. Msuzy would have been certain
ly captured a. his left hand is mutila-
ted, the two first fingers being gone
aud the other two drawn up. When
he came in his gun was broken, and
he had fired three shots. The third
shot Is supposed to have gone in the
direction of Martin 5chotts, who says
he got up about to go to work ami
some man shot at him. In getting
through wire fence he tore the seat
of his pantaloons out and oeffrs the re-
mains as witness to the truth of his
story.
So there Is another wretched man

he believes rightly or wrongly that
he has been sinned against. The pub
lie will suspend judgement until the
court shall have brought out all the
testimony.

LLOYD COE HURT.
The Fractions Colt Of Mr.. Ireland's Nearly
Kills Another Man.

The Fractions Colt Of Mr.. Ireland's Nearly
Kills Another Man.
A bout ten o'clock Monday a
carriage drove in from the west and
Mr.. Lloyd COe got out aud staggered
into the house. DR.. Mcintyre was
with him and said there had been
another runaway.
1t seems that Mr.. COe had driven
the doctor out to Jim brakes place
west of the river in a road wagon and
while he was holding the horse. Mr..
Ireland's colt-the same one which
nearly killed Mr.. Ireland and Buc-
hanan-a couple of dogs ran out and
frightened the colt. He started with
lunge that caused Mr.. Coe to lose
his balance and fall bet ween the
wheels. In this position he was
dragged a quarter of mile, the colt
running like mad. AS the river
bridge was approached, Mr.. Coe real
lied that he could not hope to stop the
colt and 80 he let go and dropped.
The colt ran into a barn yard near
the bridge and stopped. In the mean
time DR.. Mcintyre get a rig and fol-
lowed. He reached Mr.. Coe and
brought him to town. Or. Fulton
was summoned and dressed the bruis-
es. A large patch OF skin had been
worn off of Mr.. Goes back, a patch off
his cheek, his wrist and his elbow
His arm is not broken, and the
bruise on his back il the most serious,
and there is danger that the rib
may be broken.
1t was amOst unfortunate occurrence
and Mr. Coe has the deep sympathy
of his friends. This second accident
would seem to indicate that the colt
should be relegated to the Rough
Riders.

An East Side Blaze.

Thursday afternoon about twent y
minutes before 5, as the local Miss
ouri Pacific freight was coming up
past the brick plant east of town, the
engineer noticed that smoke was is
suing from one of the houses in the
Bunnell addition. He grabbed the
lever and the engine began to foot,
screech and howl. 1t took some
time for people to "catch on" although
every body ran out of doors Then a
stream of men from the works north
Of the track started for the burning
house and soon there were enough
bare armed men there to have carried
the house to the creek and immersed
it.
The burned house was the home of
Mr. John Palmer, a comparative
stranger here, The fire started from
a stove and scorched the woodwork
making thick smoke before the
blaze got under Roadway. The
prompt work Of the men soon put out
the flames and saved the house, but
considerable damage was done to the
inside.

Charley Mauzy came here year

children lived there and ran board

young men boarded there and as time

reason, Mauzy became jealous of his
wife and suspected her OF faithless-

strong liking for whether he
drank before or not could not be learn

his wife. He was arrested and locked
in the county Jail. He served out his

town, drank IN various" restaurants"
and got ready, apparently, to kill his
wife. He had just five dollars left.
With this he bought a 80 cslibre re-

for it. He also bought seven cartridg-

house and played with the children
in the yard. Later he must have re-

the "restaurants"
About $50 he appeared at the house.
Leslie Strickland was in the front

house. She saw Mauzy and called
to Strickland that Charlie was out

him, Strickland, it would seem had
no idea that Mauzy was incensed at

he walked out of the door into the

A Paying Business.

A good citizen of Lola was offered
twenty dollars a month rent for a
little ten by twelve room on a side
street by man who said he wanted
to run n restaurant. The aforesaid
9. C. was convinced that n restaurant
which could afford to pay that rent
must expect to make its money more
by drinking the thirsty than eating
the hungry, and so, being "a good
citizen, declined to accept the offer.
And by the way, what howl there
would be if any other business eX-
acted as large a margin OF profit as
the joints do. What other business
is there that on total Investment

Name The School Buildings.

Now that lola Is soon to have two
school buildings it becomes necessary
that some designation should be Sc
lected by which they may be dis
tinguished from Que another. What
shall that designation be?
They might be referred to as the
Old School and the New School. Or
they might be spoken OF as the North
Side School and the South Side
School. But when we get another
school building, as we probably must
within year or two, what would we
do then
The REGISTER begs to suggest that
the school houses be named, and it
asks all who have names to suggest
to send them to this office. The
Washington SCHOOL, would not
sound badly, or the Lincoln or the
Garfield or the Grant. Neither
would the Whittier or the Lowell or
the Longtellow or the Bryant. Some
might think that the Dewey or the
Hobson or the Roosevelt would sound
all right, But let us have some
name. Now that we are becoming
a city let us have some style about
us.
