Beers confess that this battery accounted
for seven killed and nine wounded OF their

collected about the convoy began to re-

the collection of the British dead and

Two Old Timers Here.

Among the genuine old residenters
of lola the names of Louis Walker
and G.. c. Davis will recall food of
memories Mr.. Walker was at one
time owner of the REGISTER, when its
Office was over "a store building lit
tie west of where the Bank of Allen
county now stands. He afterwards
sold it to II. A. Perkins and w. G..
Allison and went to California to live.
Mr.. Davis ran q hardware store here.
He is nephew of Mr.. Walker and
lives at Chanute where Mr.. Walker is
visiting. They called at the REGISTER
Office last. Tuesdays and asked about
Bob Stevenson, George Bowlus, w.
A. Cowan, Nels Acers and all those
old stanbys.
Mr.. Walker is naturally full frem-
iniscences on his return to the town
which looks strange TO him. He was
editor of this paper when f. H. Fun
ston was first nominated by the Repub-
lican party of Allen county for Office.
The Democrats had nominated Nels
Acers forrepresentative and the Re-
publicans put up Funston and sen
him to Topeka where he served to
such good purpose that later he went
to Congress from this district and re
mained there for years and years.
If you want to get some interesting
old memoirs, just nose about and
catch these ancients when they get to-
gether and begin spinning yarns of
! the DAYS of auld lang syne.

TRAIN LOADOF lola CEMENT
Fifteen Cars Loaded With the Famous
lola Stickiness Out Over the
Santa Fe Tuesday.

1t is little wonder that the Missouri
Pacific railway officials have n food
of the gastric juice whenever they
think of the lola cement plant. 1t is
a good thing Tuesday the Santa Fe
hauled out fifteen loaded cars all filleG
with lola Portland cement and the
works sent in orders for twenty empty
cars. The plant is not running full
blast yet and when it is the demand
will run up to fifty cars.
The morning after election the plant
sent in an order for twenty-five cars.
The request was sent to Chanute with
the remark: "This is some Mckinley
prosperity" Later the order went on
to Topeka to be filled and it still had
attached the comment mckinley
prosperity"
The concentration of the sales de-
partment at Chicago will work to the
advantage of the plant as by telephone
or call in person the exact rating
over any road in the country may be
thus learned in few minutes. while
now before quotationscan be made there
must be long correspondence to find
out what rates may be secured. The
business will be pushed with great
energy, more statesmen are to be put
on the road and it is a matter of a
short time until the lola plant will be
humping itself to fill the orders. Ev-
erything points that way now and
there is every reason to believe that
the works will prove a magnificent
success.

Died.

AT the home of her parents, Mr.. and
and Mrs. John Rohrback, on Sunday
at a. m, November 4, 1900, Mrs.
Grace Tate, beloved wife of Mr.. ID. w.
Tate, aged "a years and 10 months.
The death of Mrs. Grace Tate has
cast a gloom over all her friends both
young and old, especially over those
of the home, she being the JOY of a
household now shrouded in deepest
gloom. Her life was short, and pure,
and sweet. For one so young and
fair to be taken so suddenly from her
home and friends is sad indeed but in
the great loss to those she leaves be-
hind, the angels in heaven rejoiced at
her coming to her Eternal home. She
died as she had lived faithful, ear
nest and devoted christian, and left
this testimony behind, Resting With
Jesus" She leaves behind q sorrow
ing husband and two dear little babes
to mourn the loss of devoted wife
and mother, besides father, mother,
brothers and sisters to mourn her de-
parture. And while we can but weep
over the death of our loved one, we
bow in submission to the will of God
and say, "Thy Win be Done"
The floral decorations were beauti-
full, tribute of respect from her
friends who followed her remains to
their last resting place. Funeral SER
vices were held in the NJ. T.. church,
conducted by Rev. Patterson of lola,
and the remains laid to rest in the
Piqua cemetery, there to await the
resurrection of the just.
\ precious one from us has gone,
voice we loved is Stilled,
\ place is vacant in the home
That never can be hlled.

FOUR LEAGUE CASES ENDED.
Four Farmers of MaTmatOn and Els
more Townships Rejoice in Sure
Possessions at Last.

The appellate court of Ft. Scott at
its present session settled once for all
four cases in which four Allen county
farmers are intensely interested and
in which ALI their many friends are
consequently interested. The court
held that William Mattocks, of Mar
maton township, has "A good title to
his l6O-acRe farm, and that Newt Ard
owned his S0-acre farm, the Starkey
heirs owned their S0-acre farm, and
Mr. Bowman owned his l60-acre farm,
the last three in Elsmore township.
The controversy goes back to the
'60s. At that time these men pre-
empted these lands and prepared to
live on them the required time and
then prove up and by paying 81 an
acre secure title from the government
About the time they were ready to
thus pay and prove up, somebody put
them onto the better plan, to throw
aside their former plan and home
stead the lands. So they yielded up
the title all but acquired, and before
they could secure another title by
homesteading the government land
grants were given to the M. X. & 7,
railroad, including these lands. The
