meeting with appreciation among citizens
generally. Joseph Mahood and Louis
Yoke are at the head of this new move
ment and about twenty-five young men
have already expressed their willingness
ID become members of the organization,
which it is very likely will be known as
THE Bachelors Hose Company" The
forming of such a company was talked of
at meeting of a number of those inter-
eSted, held recently, and it was unani-
mously decided to effect an organization
and purchase a hose cart, providing the
City Council would agree to have a hose
house erected. All in favor of organizing
a hose company on such conditions are
called to meet at the city hall tomorrow
night, and a large attendance Will no
doubt be scored AS it remains at pres
ent, further naturalization in the mat
ter will depend entirely on some action
of Council concerning the proposition.
An agreement has been closed with w.
p. Curran, Louis Harttong and Michael
Deegan, by which the Harttong building
passed into the hands of Mr. Curran, who
transferred it into the possession of Mr..
Deegan, and the Curran property was
decided to Mr. Harttong. The Curran
property adjoins the Harttong property on
Main street. Mr. Deegan will just as soon
as the weather permits have the old Hart
tong building removed from its present
site, recently purchased by the Pabst
brewing company to his vacant lot on
McMechen street, which is on a direct line
east from the Harttong premises. After
its removal the building will be remod-
elled for dwelling purposes. Mr. Hart
tong will use the Curran property as a
place for business and residence. Mr.. Cur
ran will occupy part of the new build
ing to be erected by The Pabst brewing
company on the Harttong ground, in the
capacity of general manager of the COM
panys business.

How much do you owe ?"


"AbOut $500. 1 borrowed $10O to help
pull me through, but it did not help.
The rest of the money 1 owe for ma
chinery and things of that kind
When asked about insanity in the
family Gilbert said:
My mother was crazy and died in an
asylum and 1 had one sister die of
something they called hydrOphObia but
she was crazy. She got gun and tried
to kill herself several times"
Did you think of killing yourself?"
Yes, 1 thought of it and 1 intended
to do it but 1 got started away and just
kept on. But I wanted to kill myself.
For a long time before 1 left 1 kept
thinking that some one was trying to
do me up. 1 could not help thinking
that some one was after me all the
time. 1 inquired about it and they told
me that no one wanted to hurt me and
that | was all right 1t may have been
that 1 was going crazy then.
when L left home Tuesday night
intended to go to Oklahoma where my
brother and father live but I intended
to go back to my family when 1 had
visited there awhile, but 1 thought
they would be happier without me. L
did not know that my family had been
killed until they put me in Jail at En-
pOria and then they told me about it.
/ did not believe them at first but so
many reliable men told me that l final
ly believed it.
Il don't deny that I confessed to these
people at EmpOria. The sheriff and two
they talked to me until I thought L
might just as well tell them what they
wanted me to. L knew that they would
be after me about that mortgaged pro-
perty and that 1 would have to go to
the pen anyhow and I thought that I
might as we'll tell them, but half the
stuff that has been printed about me is
not true.'
Gilbert says that he was born in No
BILE county, Ohio, and that he has lived
in Kansas nearly all his life. He is 80
years old. He says that he was mar
ried eight years ago. His oldest child,
a boy of was named Arthur Next
was a girl, Ethel, then Beatrice and
the youngest who was less than nam
ed Carrie. He prefers to not talk about
his children When asked if he was
fond of them he replied that he was
and then changed the subject.
The Gilbert home near Industry was
a one room farm shanty which served
for kitchen, dining and sleeping room.
Mrs. Gilbert was a woman who had
spent most of her life in town. There is
no doubt that she was not contented
with the hardships of country life on
rented farm. Her husband said that she
frequently complained and this is pro-
badly correct On the fatal Tuesday
night there had undoubtedly been
quarrel. The ignorant and impetuous
man was enraged. He picked up a
heavy blacksmith hammer which had
been left at the place by thrashers and
with this struck his wife on the head.
The beast that was in the man was
aroused and in an instant he had plung-
ed into the bloody abyss of insanity
which has no doubt always existed in
his nature, undetected. He struck the
babe, Carrie who was barely able to
toddle. Then he wound a sheet around

there. They left for San Francisco over
the Union Pacific road at 2:30 o'clock

Kansas men to apply to Lieutenant
John Taylor Haines, recruiting officer
daily mail for the station comes in big
bags. There are hundreds of letters
from men all over the west who want to
be soldiers. Lieut.. Haines has found
that he can not do all the enlisting
alone and has applied to the adjutant
general of the army at Washington for
assistance. Two second HeutenantS
were ordered to report to him here.
Yesterday Second Lieutenant Dean of
the sixth cavalry arrived at the station
and began work. He will be sent
through Missouri on a recruiting trip.
When the other lieutenant arrives he
will be sent through Kansas on a like
trip.
Officers will spend several weeks in
