HUSBAND OR HORSE
Mrs. Morgan Was Yesterday
Given an Unusual Choice,
REFUSED TO GIVE UP
Her Pony and Was Locked in
the Stall for Six Hours,

''If my husband wants me he must come
and take the colt back home" said Mrs.
Morgan as she chung to the halter Of a
big-eyed and docile pony at Ed Taylor S
barn yesterday. Its my pony. He has
WAYS belonged to me and my husband had
no business to go and sell him. III stay
in this stall with my horse, and if my
husband wants one of Us ne must take
both Of US"
And there she stayed locked in with her
pony for six hours, waiting for her hus-
band. All the police force, assisted by Ed
TAYLOR and his men did not afford argu-
rnent enough TO get her to leave and go
home.
Mr.. Taylor was not to bame. He had
bought the horse from Mr.. Morgan just
as any man would perform any business
transaction, had paid the money and Sc
cured a bill of sale. When he went 10
Morgan's house to get the horse Mrs. Nor
gan was in command Of the situation and
would not permit her pony 10 be taken
away. Mr.. Taylor then replevined the ami
NAL and sent an officer. The officer
brought both the pony and the woman, for
there was no way Of separating them.
When they arrived at the barn on South
Market street Mrs. Morgan jumped out
and grasped the pony's bride bits. IF
you take the pony in you must take me
in" she said, and both went into the stall
together.
Its my pony" she repeated, "and has
always been mine. It's all the property
I've got and he cannot he used to pay
my husbands debts It's my pony, and as
long as he stays in here III stay for my
husband cannot get one without the
other"
Mr.. Taylor offered he rthe hospitality Of
the barn Office but she thanked him and
refused. She would stay in the stall with
her pony. No compromise could be effect
ed. She not only stayed in the stall but
held to the ponys halter. The stall door
was closed and locked, and Mrs. Morgan
waited for Mr.. Morgan to come and re-
deem his wife and her pony, but Mr.. Nor
gan failed 70 show up.
IF my husband wants me let him get
the pony" That was Mrs Morgan's ulti-
matum, and she stuck to it. Richard III
offered his kingdom for a horse once, but
up until yesterday history has never men
toned woman who was willing to give
up her husband for horse
After waiting for six hours in the dark
stall. Mrs. Morgan finally consented to
be taken away by officers on promise of
Mr.. Taylor that when the money was re-
turned she could have her pony.

hand in their name and address.

STANDARD OIL CO.
SUED FOR A PECULIAR CLAIM

Method SpOttinG.

s. w. Ashford. through his attorneys,
Blake & Ayres. has fled a petition in the

of 50 900 for alleged services rendered TO

that the Standard Oil company had him

also secure the information as TO whom oil
was being shipped, in what quantities and
where from.
Ashford says he did this kind Of work
for the company in this city, and they
refuse to pay him, claiming that they had

Us SEVENTY SIX HUNDRED
What the Ross Administration
Has Done for Wichita.

! The total registration yesterday was les!
than 40, a material falling off from Mon.
| day and Tuesday. Altogether there are
now about 1900 registered. II is prob
able that grand total Of 500 will bi
reached before the close Of the week
Two years ago James Tapp voted fol
Finlay Ross for mayor. because for his
enmity for George Young. and it is said
because Of personal friendship Of Burt
Walden, fire chief. II is known that
if he were not a candidate himself Nj
Tapp woulud today be talking for Mayor
Ross If he had not been nominated, he
would have run independently against
Young and for Mayor Ross this spring.
Two years ago FinIay Ross was in the
management Of public affairs practically
unknown save in the single instance
where ne served as city treasurer, 10
which place he was elected unanimously.
TWO years Of service has proved him 10
be one of the best executive officers in
the west When the mayors of the cities
of the first class Of Kansas met at Fort
Scott recently, he easily stood first in
practical ideas Of the management Of q
city.
II Mr. Tapp were himself not a candi-
date ne would be supporting Mayor Ross,
because he has knowledge that the city
has been run with good judgment and
with a constant eye TO improvement and
prosperity.
When business times were tagging and
work was scarce he began Improvements
which gave multitude Of men work.
more men being employed at one time
than was ever employed at one time on
public works in the city before. He has
tried to improve the city in every sec
ton. He has taken the best of care of
its finances. The city's credit is gilt edge
in the east. He has had bond payments
to meet and has met them. He has poiced
the city effectively with less men than
had been used for years.
Two years ago when Mayor Ross took
hold of the city, times were not good.
Then new mayor took hold Of the business
as he would his own.
What the result is any one can see.
Look at the streets. Look at the improve
ments in every part of the city. Look at
the pavements. Look al Little River, not
a Huuuy Cicths DuI a beautiful SltedIl
Look at Chisolm creek, no longer a sewer,
but a quick flowing creek. Griswold no
-onger belongs to the county. II is the
city's property. Streets have been graded,
sidewalks built, water ways improved. and
everything kept in a apple pie order.
The revenues of the city have been care
fully collected and accounted for. Talk
OF Doodle, recrimination and local dissen-
sion have passed away. There has been a
united effort to upbuild the city. His ad-
ministration has done these things:
1t has improved the city.
1t has given men work.
1t has managed with brillancy the city's
finances.
It has collected and accounted for reven-
uues.
It has policed the city effectively.
It has bettered the fire department
Has been thrifty. wise. untiring, liberal
and generous in the management of the
city. no one can deny It, his opponent
leasct of all.
