WAS ON THE TEXAS.
An Abileneite's Visit to the Ship Last
Year.

About all that Is necessary to be
great in this community is to have
been aboard a United States war yes.
sci. Charlie Pattison, not having had
his name in the paper for nearly q
week is today perched on the pinnacle
Of fame. year ago when the Texas,
which was hit by Spanish shell
today, was at Galveston he spent an
afternoon on board. Several thous-
and others visited the ship as she
anchored out in the bay but Charlie
was the only one who had the nerve
to violate all national statutes and
regulations and saunter into the cap
tain's private cabin, put, his feet on
the table and ask after the health Of
the officers family.
The Texas showed signs OF going
aground and that night it was run
outside the harbor into the Gulf
where it anchored. But Charlie liked
the ship SO well that the next after
noon be bribed the officers Of a mail
tug to let him 60 out again. Astorm
came up and the tug had hard voy-
age. 1t could not get near the Texas
but the seamen put the mail aboard
somehow. Instead Of returning at 4
p. M, as was intended, 1t was not
heard from at dark. Charles friends
had several kinds of conniption fits,
warned the police force and quaran-
tine station and made all preparations
to start out a rescue expedition for
the supposed shipwrecked Abileneite.
Just as the scare was in good sizzling
shape, he drifted in about 10 p. m.
and carried off the relieved relatives
and friends for late oyster supper.
During the remainder of the stay
he was kept in charge of some res
ponsible person who did not want to
see the Texas and there was general
sigh OF relief when it was learned,that
the vessel had put to sea.

CORN TO BE GOOD.
Prophet Kropff Thinks the Crop
Is Sure.

A Kropff, whose crop prophecies
have been widely quoted in the coun-
ty, was in town today. He recalls
with considerable pleasure the pre-
diction he made last winter that
wheat on the bottoms would be too
heavy and much would be injured.
He says the corn is going to be good
better than last year. OF course he
makes no such prediction for grain
planted out Of season or badly tended
but properly handled corn he thinks
will be all right.

wives had arranged to spend the night to-

Ida Ewing's story. they were in their
night clothes and ready TO retire when her
daughter Blanche fell over the sleeping
form of Lizzie's son, little Harold. Lizzie
seized the little girl and threw her against
the wall declaring she had no sense and
had never been taught any" The women
then fought. The surviving woman claims
that her antagonist reached into her bed,
drew forth a pistol and threatened to kill
her. Ida then reached into a closet near
and drew out a self-acting revolver and
shot her antagonist twice. Both balls took
effect in the head, and either would have
proved fatal. The murderess then ran
across to a neighbor's in her night clothes
and told what she had done. She was held
to-day by the coroner's jury. 1t is said
that on former occasion Ida Ewing made
an attempt to drown the woman whom she
killed last night

DID WEED TELL THE TRUTH?
Alleged Confession of an Oregon
Man May Clear Up n Joplin
Mystery.

JOPLIN, MO. Sept. 27.-(Special) The
Associated Press sent out the following
dispatch September p. from La Grande,
Ore: "A man giving the name of Weed
arrived here from the East to-day, gave
himself up to the marshal, stating that he
had murdered man named Smith in Jop-
lin. Mo-. last March"
II the confession of Weed proves to be
| the genuine utterance of a man driven by
remorse to confess foul murder. then the
mystery surrounding the death of William
Smith, at one time a prosperous miner OF
Blendville, near Joplin, will have been
cleared up. The story of Smiths death,
which occurred on Saturday night, was
| told in Joplin papers Tuesday morning
| March l. as follows: William Smith, aged
| about 10 years, a well known miner, met
| death in most unfortunate manner Sat
| urday night at the South Joplin mines. A
searching party. composed of neighbors
and friends, found his body in u shaft about
fifty feet deep yesterday morning at 10
| o'clock He came to Joplin Saturday even
/ Ing and mingled with the thousands who
thronged the streets and public places until
| a late hour. when he boarded an
electric car and started for home. Some
he got of the cam car. probably to 'i get an an
other drink. At O'Clock Sunday morning
he stopped at the South Joplin mines
! pant, "iitIe ;He tIlSlIiteT ue-
tanned him as long as he could on ac-
! count of his condition. When he said he
would so home, the engineer guided him
| to the railroad tracks and started him
toward home. That was the last seen of
| Smith alive. There were scarcely any
bruises on the body when found, and it
is thought that death resulted from ex-
| posure rather than from the effects Of the
fall. Smith was well and favorably
known in joplin and a few years ago made
a fortune out of his mines He was gen.
| erouS to fault and assisted many poor
man in the struggle of life. His bigness
| of heart and unlucky prospecting diss-
| pated his wealth. A wife and seven chill
| dren survive him. The coroner's jury re-
turned a verdict in accordance with the
| above facts"
A few weeks ago, the widow of Mr..
| Smith, through her attorneys, filed suit
for 5000 damages against the city of Jop-
| lin.
| Up to the present time the Oregon Off
| cials have not communicated with the Jop-
lin officers in regard to the case, but the
police are investigating it and II Is prob
| able that some action will be taken by
| them or the state authorities at once.

A PREACHER IN TROUBLE.
Rev. Mr. Gabriel Hostetter, of Canton
o., Is Under Arrest for
Counterfeiting.

CLEVELAND, o., Sept. 27.-Captain
Webb, of the secret service. and Deputy
Marshal Keeler went to Canton this morn
ing to finish the work on a counterfeiting
case They there searched the residence
of Rev Mr.. Gabriel Hostetter, No. 1122
Park avenue, and in the cellar found five
counterfeit silver dollars. material from
which they might have been made, and
two molds which fit the bogus coins per-
fectly The officers also searched the
basement of Mr.. Hostetter's church. the
Reformed Baptist, which is near where the
pastor lives, but nothing was revealed
there. Hostetter was placed under arrest
and taken to Massillon, where he was ar
raiened before United States Commission
er Folger. He waived examination and
was brought to Cleveland, where he is now
in Jail. The minister vehemently denies
that he is a counterfeiter. and says that
he was not aware that the coins and dies
were in his cellar. He declares that 1t Is
a conspiracy on the part of one of his rel
atives. Captain Webb has been working
on the case for some time, number of
the spurious dollars having been placed in
circulation in Canton. Rev. Mr.. Gabriel
Hostetter Is "a years of age and has four
teen children. 1t is generally believed that
he is not a regularly oroained minister of
the Baptist church. His church was es-
tabiished by himself and has small con-
gregation of persons who have been MEM
bers of other churches. He added to his
means of livelihood by keeping a small
candy and tobacco store.
