DYNAMO
Depot aE Derby aad House On North
Waco Damaged.

Tightening played several pranks in WI
chfta yesterday afternoon, doing some
damage to property. The large dynamo
at the street railway power house was
struck by a thunderbolt and rendered
useless. Five cars had to be taken OF the
line on account Of 1t, and 1t Is said the
damage will be considerable. necessitatine
several days work for repairing and re-
wrapping the dynamo. No one about the
machinery was injured.
A large residence on Waco between
Eleventh and Twelfth streets was struck
about the same time as the dynamo and
the chimney was knocked to pieces. One
young lady is reported TO have received
a shock. but It was not serious. The
name could not be learned last night.
Tightening struck the depot at Derby
yesterday afternoon at $50 o'clock and
demolished the roof. L r. Hotter, the
agent, received a shock which rendered
him unable TO do his work for several
hours. A gentleman who came in from

MRS. KEeRAN DIES SUDDENLY
Passed Away From Consumption
Yesterday.

AG8gCEO1As
MRS. Laura J. Keeran died at 1903 East
Ninth street yesterday afternoon at LIS
O'Clock Of consumption, after lingering
illness for the past ten years. Mrs.
Keeran was formerly Miss Laura J. Sim
mons and was born November 19, 1856, at
Monroe, Green county, Wisconsin, being
at her death in her SD year.
Mrs, Keeran was married to W. G..
Keeran August is, 1883 here in Wichita.
She had two children who died in Colo
RADIO, where she had gone in search OF
health. having shortly after her marri-
age contracted that dread disease con-
sumption. An account of the tragic death
of the children was given in full In the
Eagle May Is, 1896. The death OF her two
children on May TO- 1896, being too great
a shock for the diseased condition of her
body. she brooded over her great loss
until finally her reason gave way temper
arily. After proper treatment she recov-
cred her mental faculties but was so en-
feebled physically that her friends saw
that the never failing disease, consump-
ton. would soon reap its harvest. She
received every attention that kind
friends and a loving husband could pro-
cure for her in her struggle for life. but
81 was all OF no avail.
1t can truthfully be said of Mrs. Keer-
an that to know her was to love her.
Her kind disposition made every one with
whom she came in contact her friend.
She loved every one.
The funeral will be held at the resi-
dence OF the family at the corner OF
Cleveland and Ninth streets. Friday
morning at $50 o'clock. Services will be
in charge of c. H. Wareham. pastor OF
the First Baptist church. Friends are
invited.

CALVES AN 0 TURKEYS
Got MRS Lane Into the Hands Of the
Government

Mrs. Alice Love of MCPHERSON. who is
In Jail here for sending Objectionable
matter through the mails on postal cards,
came to her trouble over the little mat
ter OF penning up some calves of q
neighbour. The calves, Mrs. Lane said
were eating her sorghum. To retaiiate
this neighbOr penned up Mrs. Lanes tur-
keys. and then the real trouble began.
It was a neighborhood row and 1t grew
as It lasted. Mrs. Lanes husband was a
horse trader and usually a crowd OF
noisy fellows was about the place most
Of the time.
'SThey came there against my wishes
when my husband was away. just as they
did when he was at homS,' said Mrs.
Lane. land in that way through circum-
stances could not avoid the neighbors

One night a crowd called on Mrs Lane
and told her she must leave. She went
and wrote the postal cards which got her
into trouble.

BANKERS GIVE BOND
Mcpherson Men Charged
With Violation of
REVENUE STAMP LAW
Claimed That They Accepted
Receipts IrreguIarly'

Deputy united States Marshal Fred
Trlgg yesterday arrested six MCPHERSON
men for violating the law governing the
use OF internal revenue stamps on bank
checks. -Four Of the parties arrested were
Officers of the Citizens bank of McPher-
SON. They were: EN- P. williams. presi-
dent; Edward Berg. vice-presideHt; w. 8.
Buche, cashier; Harrison Miller, book
keeper. John c. Hamilton and e L. Coul-
son, the other two arrested, are millerS
the latter being member of the milling
firm Of Coulson Bros.
The men came down from Mcpherson
last evening and each arranged for bond
of 500. Their trial win come up before
the September term Of the Federal court.
Under a ruling Of the treasury depart
ment last February # was decided that
It was not necessary to stamp receipt
where it was made out in the presence OF
both parties. In this way a person could
go to the bank, make a receipt and re-
ceIve his money without paying the two
cents for a revenue stamp. which the gov
eminent demands on a check.
It seems that the bank at Mcpherson
and its customers, the millers, got lax in
the using OF the receipts. The miller 1t
Is claimed, would make out receipts and
send them to the bank for collection by
clerk. When the law provides that only
when a receipt is written in person can
st be cashed without a stamp. This, 1t Is
assented. was in violation Of the ruling
of the department and it was upon this
charge that the arrests were made.
AS long as the, receipts are presented IN
person It is all right, but TO allow another
party to draw money from a bank over
your name It Is necessary to give check.
1t Is chained that many banks in the state
have violated this ruling but no evidence
has been secured against any but the Nc
Pherson bank. President Williams claims
that II a receipt may be cashed in person
a representative may do the same thing.
as for instance, different employees might
present receipts for the Coulsou Milling
co,

Arthur Pattls0n Totally Uamtn0ful
OF Sensation Of Failing.
Arthur Pattison, the young man who
rolled out Of third-story window in his
sleep Tuesday night, was thought to be
improving last evening at the Wichita
hospital. It is simply case OF luck that
Mr.. Pattison was not killed. In the revo-
lutions made In the descent he happen
ed to light on his feet Any other way
would doubtless have resulted in fatal In
juries. He sleeps most all the time and
the hospital nurses think there are no
internal injuries that will give him seri-
Que trouble. His left wrist is broken and
his back is very severely bruised and
sprained.
Mr. Pattison was asked II he had any
peculiar sensation when he was falling
such as would naturally come to one. He
said that he did not redlize thing from
the time he went to sleep until he re-
gained consciousness under the physi-
clans care. He did not know when he
left the window nor when he struck the
ground. The entire history OF the acci-
dent is a blank to him.
