MUTTON KING A PLAIN HOBO
Worked the Golden Eagle Clerk to
Perfection.

A Mexican, who had the genuine air
of the hobo stamped upon him, drifted
into the Office of the Golden Eagle no.
tel the other day and sought accommo-
dations. The follow was considera bly,
under the influence of liquor, and
Louis Wilcox, the clerk, was about to
call the hotel officer and have him
elected, when well known young man
who was present at the time inter-
fered He declared that he had known
the stranger, whose name was Juan
Romero, for twelve years. He said
that Romero bad thousands of head of
sheep roaming over the hills and the
valleys of California and that the man
was able to buy half dozen or more
hotels like the Golden Eagle.
1t Was then that Wilcox bowed low
TO the Mutton King and babe him well
come to the hostelry. He was assured
that there was nothing that the house
afforded that would be denied him. All
he had to do would be to press the but
ton and gentlemanly clerks would come
on the run to do the rest.
Romero had all of the Injuries in
solid and liquid form, that he could
think of, and then he retired to sweet
dreams. But, as the novelist says,
"we are trifle ahead OF our story.
After tie owner OF the thousands of
sheep had become little better &C
quainted with Clerk Wilcox, he gave
him a touch" for a couple of dollars,
which was to be returned, of course,
under the old confidence game. ''when
the bank opened in the morning. Ro-
nero remained late in bed having
''pipe Dreams about his flocks, and
when he put in appearance the next
day, Clerk Harrison was behind the
counter of the hotel. Romero had a
frig htful thirst on at that time and ne
borrowed ST. from Harrison. Then the
sheepman wandered out into the world
and resumed his jag.
Some hours later be was picked up
in an intoxicated condition and taken
to the police station and locked up.
When he appeared before Justice An
derson the next morning he had thrown
off the role of the millionaire and was
himself sgain-s hobo to the core, but
he was repentant. He promptly plead

OBITUARY..

Thomas j. Reeves died at Cherry
vale on Tuesday night of last week,
May 9. 1899, at ii O'Clock. Messrs. Ire
land, Brandon and Kinkald, of the or
der Knights Of Pythias. arrived at his
bedside twentyfour hours before his
death, but he was unconscious and did
not recognize anybody. The funeral SER
vices were held at Cherryvale on We'd
nesday.
MIR. Reeves and family resided
here about 5 years, having removed to
Cherryvale about April lst last. His
death was caused from stomach and
kidney affection. The deceased, while
a citizen among us. was employed as
hostler at the Santa Fe station. He
was noted for his integrity and his
friendly disposition among his ac-
quaintances. He was a middle aged
man and leaves wife and four small
children to mourn his death, who have
the sympathy Of their friends here.
Mr.. Reeves carried some insurance.

One of the best entertainments ever
given in the opera house was that of
Cay Coney Island" presented by some
of our most talented young ladies and
gentlemen last Thursday night. Those
who composed the cast are. Messrs. R.

burn. The opera house was filled and
everybody was very much surprised at
the superiority of the play. On Friday
they went to Kiowa and played to a
fair house, but unfortunately their
coming was not advertised long enough
in advance to secure as large house as
they had here. Those of the people
of KiOwa, however, who were fortunate
to be present speak in the highest
terms of the company. In this connec.
ton it might be- said that much of the
success is due to the untiring efforts of
Manager G. E. Bechtel who is as much
at home on the stage as he Is in the
Santa Fe ticket Office. We hope this
troupe" will continue to favor our city
with dates; they give more for the mon.
ey than most concerns coming from
abroad and the community appreciates
their efforts.

DR.. George Washington Ayers of the
whole of Barber county. called in to
see us last week. The doctor is an I'M
usual example of vigorous old age; he
has retained the vitality and animosty.
especially the latter, to a most remark.
able extent, he being in his S1st year.
Notwithstanding his advanced years he
does as much everyday work as the av
erage man in the prime of life, and he
declared most emphatically that there
is not a man in Barber county today
who can down him in rough and tum-
BILE scrap. and we believe him, too; at
least we do not care to tackle the job.
His years are 81 and likewise his ALE
glance to democratic principles. and
his pride to this fact ls unlimited. May
he continue long in the fullness Of his
energy and vitality can only be the
wish of every lover of nature, regard
less of what may be displeasing mental
ttributes.-Kiowa Review.

District court adjourned last Friday
evening and Judge Gillett and his stem
ographer, Miss Allen. departed on Sat-
urday. The jury in the case of state VS.
jenkins failed to agree after having de-
liberated more than 48 hours, and were
discharged by the court on Friday.
There were seven for conviction and
five for acQuittal. The case will be
tried again at the October term of
court. On Thursday and Friday the
case of Wisner vs. BOoher ct. al. was
heard. This was court trial. This is
q controversy Of long standing growing
out of the location of a road in Sharon
township, and most of the taxpayers OF
that township are interested. The wit
nesses are numerous and the case is
very complicated. 1t Is a close question
and the dispute arises as to which of
two roads seemingly authorized by the
commissioners is legal. Wisner con-
tends for the maintenance of the old
road of '8S while the trustee joined by
many citizens claim that they are emit.
tied to the new road supposed to have
been established by the commissioners
OH line which is known and rec.
ogniZed as the Tweedale survey. The
plaintiff was represented by Messrs.
Long Noble and Sample, and the defense
by G.. M. Marti n. Judge Gillett has
taken the matter under adyisement.
The argument will be submitted by
brief. Art Johnson, the Hazelton bur-
glar. was sentenced to seven years i'm
prisonment and James Cottrell pleaded
guilty to the charge of abduction for
the purpose of concubinage and was
sentenced to three years in the penlten.
tiary. Judge Gillett stated that while
there was no mitigating circums lance
connected with the commission of the
crime. he would not impose the full
penalty of the law, in view of the
fact that the defendant Q ntered a plea
of guilty. The full penalty is five years.
The court decided that johnson was a
bad character and gave him a heavy
dose. Out of nine criminal cases at
this term of court there was one con-
viction and one plea of guilty. Several
have not been disposed OF and must be
tried again.

SARAH ANGELINA MATHEWS

was born IN Cumberland county, Hi.
nois, April l9, 1854, and died in Medl-
cine Lodge, Kansas, May 9. 1899, aged
35 years and 20 days. Her maiden
name was Feltner. She came with her
parents to Barber county and settled at
Lake City in 1877. anu in 1883 was mar
ried to Richard Mathews. Four chill
dren were born to the union, all of
whom are yet small, and three of a de-
ceased sisters children are left without
what to them was mothers care.
The funeral services were held on
Wednesday and The remains were laid
to rest in Lake City cemetery.
Death is sad at all times, but this
one ESPECIALLY appeals to the sympa-
thies of friends and strangers alike.
Several years ago Mrs. Matthews as
sumed the responsibility of caring for
her dead sisters children and gave
them the same attention that she gave
her own, but now they are all left
mOtherless and the responsibilities of
the father and uncle are greater than
aught else conceivable. Mrs. Math-
ews was woman among women and
il there is future reward for anybody
this good wife, mother and aunt will Ger
tainly share in the blessings. VINO is
there now TO care for the children of
this woman as she cared for those of
another. Echo answers, who? Not
words alone, but deeds, can express the
sympathy due the bereayed ones, es-
pecially the husband.
