One Hundred Men Search All
Night
MAN
MISSING
DR.. Updegraffe of Reno
County Leaves Home.

Officers were here yesterday looking for
.Dr.Alfred Updegrafe of Pretty Prairie,
Reno county, who, it is thought, became
suddenly demented Monday evening about
5 o'clock and left home on bicycle. Up
degrafe had been here and purchased a
ticket over the Santa Fe for Medicine
Lodge and left yesterday morning at S
o'clock. He seemed 10 be looking for
trouble. He tried TO get a racket with
the Missouri Pacific agent at Haven and
when told he would have to go on the
Santa Fe 10 Medicine Lodge from Wich-
tia swOre viciously and said he wouldn' I
so on any railroad. He'd ride his wheel
Updegraffe IS well known in Reno coun-
~. being a dentist OF good reputation at
Pretty Prairie, sixteen miles south Of
Hutchinson, on the Hutchinson and
Southern.
About ) o'clock Monday evening he left
his Office and said he guessed he'd go to
the cattle pasture and bring up the cows.
having reference 10 a pasture Of Frank
Collingwood, for whom Updegraffs had
once worked. He left and was gone only
a few minutes when he came back to his
Office and asked the persons in there to
get out as ne would have 10 lock up. He
locked up, mounted his wheel in his
working suit and rode away Nobody
thought anything Of it until about nine
clock. Inquiry failed TO locate him and
at once q searching party went out TO
find him and secured the country all
night. More than a hundred men joined
in the search. II was thought that per
haps ne had been kicked over and tram
pied by the horses, so the party Joined
hands, q hundred and ten men in ALL and
marched over every foot Of the big range
Updegraffe could not be found anywhere
and after the search about Pretty Prai-
RE was concluded the party divided. Some
Of them went TO Hutchinson, some to
IIIngman, and some came to Wichita
The first trace Of the lost man was
found at Haven, where he had secured
ticket for Wichita, coming in on the
night train. which arrived here at 10
o'clock Monday night
Updegraffe came to Haven foaming al
most with excessive heat and had ridden
nearly thirty miles across the country,
wading ponds and streams. a veritable
wild man. He is a very calm, courteous
man at his home, but his nature seemed
OF be entirely changed. He had no occa-
sion for leaving and on this account he
was thought TO have gone suddenly in
sane.
He will probably be found today some
waere near Medicine Lodge.

STILL AT 1T
THIEVES GET TWO MORE
HORSES
Stole a Campers Team From Near
Midland Depot

The hose stealing industry still t1rives.
Two more were stolen yesterday from this
city and several were reported missing
that were thought to be stolen, and the
sheriff received two notices , stolen
horses, one from Wellington and one from
Arkansas City. It has been a subject of
much comment that while Alvin Ballard,
the confessionist, was in the county jail,
awaiting developments in soma Of the sto-
ries that he told with regard to the New
murder and the workings Of the Algood
gang, that everything was very peaceful
in this county. not even a chicken thief
being reported in the city. There was
not horse stolen while Ballard was here.
AS soon as he was returned TO Lansing
the gang broke loose and II mas been max
ing up for lost time ever since. 1t has
been suggested that If the work continues
as it has be6n for the past few days, it
would be well 10 bring Ballard back to
Sedgwick county and keep MIN here to
scare horsethieves away.
Yesterday there arrived n this city a
good natured, honest appearing and IN
suspecting German named Appleman. He
was travelling a weary journey, hunting
for suitable place in which 10 select a
home IN the belt of the golden grain and
pretty fields of Oklahoma. He came from
Kansas City all alone in a covered wagon,
intending 10 send back for his family
when he had decided on a place TO suit
him for a home. Unfortunately he had
not read the newspapers, and his unsus-
pecting nature babe him be free and safe
Of DIV
cess. He had not heard that the festive
and ever alert horsethief Iurksd about
the alleys Of Wichita seeking whom they
might relieve Of a fine stopper or a blind
nag Of the commonest sort. So in his
innocence he pulled his caravansary u by
the Midland depot and proceeded 10 so
into camp for the night The grass grew
there and he Iariated his horses 80 they
could Craze, after which he fell asleep.
The next morning the old man found the
ends OF the ropes which ne tied TO the
wagon but the ends tied 10 the horses
were gone and the horses were missing,
also. The horses were what the Missou-
rian would call plugs" but the horse
thief common 10 this section is no re-
specter Of plugs and they are as apt TO go
into his rendezvous as any ether quality
OF horse flesh. Mr.. Appleman, never
thihking OF such a thing as q hoCsethief,
for they are almost unknown in Missouri.
concluded that the ropes had been cut
by some devillsh boys and the horses had
probably strayed away, so he began an
early search Mr.. Butler. the liveryman,
drove him al over the city and out about
the suburbs, and the police were finally
notified, but the old mans horses could
not be found When told that they had
been stolen. Mr.. Appleman sad he did
not think the horses were good enough
for a horsethlsf. He IS left stranded in
the city, and viii have TO buy him another

G0MPERS ON STRIKES

HELPS THE BAND
Council Votes SIG a Week
for Concerts.
PLAN A CELEBRATION
For the Fourth of July in
Wichita.
CELEBRATION

The city council has voted to allow
Sanford's Commercial band SIS per week
for concerts in the park and on the
streets. The principal playing of course
is TO be done in the park. This is a start
in the line of working up a good band
for this place and should be supported.
The band now proposes to get up a
Fourth Of July celebration and will be
around among the business men of the
city in the next few days soliciting fnAn-
cial support of the project. The plan is
good one and Wichita citizens will no
doubt support the scheme. 1t is proposed
by the manager of the band TO arrange
for a days entertainment al the park or
in the park grounds, consisting princi-
pally of concert music by the band. There
will probably be a ball game at the
grounds, speaking, etc. at the park, and
the whole proceeding 10 be under the di-
rect management of the band.
One Of the things the city has been
clamoring for is d good band. Now that
the council has taken steps to aid the
OF SdhlZdtlon the suggestion Tor per-
manent fund by subscription from the cit
liens viii be more in favor. Within a
year or two, if given the right kind Of
encourag cement, Wichita could have as
good a band as any city in the state. The
matter has been started in good shape by
the council and the Fourth of July plan
should be supported, and will be- If this
plan is upheld and the band given a start,
there ought to be no further doubt of
fine, successful musical organization for

In addition to these, it is learned that
many grocers are selling what they call
their own private or special brands. These
powders are put up for the grocer, and his
name put upon the labels by manufac-
turers Of alum powders in ST. Louis. Chi
cago Kansas City and elsewhere. The
manufacturers, it Is said, find their efforts
to market their goods in this way greatly
aided by the ambition of the grocer 70
sell a powder with his own name upon the
label, especially as he can make an alb
normal profit upon it. Many grocers,
doubtless, do not know that the powders
they are thus pushing are alum powders
which would be actually contraband in
many sections II sold without disguise.
Il IS quite impossible 10 give the names
of all the alum baking powders in the
market. They are constantly appearing
in al sorts Of DISCUSSES. under all kinds
Of cognomens, and at all kinds OF prices,
even as low as five and ten cents a pound.
They can be avoided, however, by the
housekeeper who will bear in mind that
all baking powders sold al twenty-five
cents or less per pound are liable to con-
tain alum, as pure cream of tartar pow
ders cannot be produced at anything like
this price.
