IVORY A WILMINGTON NEGRO.
Henry Ivory, who has confessed that
he witnessed the killing of Professor
White, formerly lived in this city. AT
one time he was an inmate for year OF
the Ferris Industrial School, after hav
ing been arrested several times.
About three years ago Ivory left VIII

live. During the past year he has visit
ed Wilmington several times. but re-
mained only few days.
At the request of the Philadelphia
authorities, Chief DOlan looked NJ
Ivory's record yesterday. 1t was
thought that as Ivory is a Delawarean
that the man he accused of committing
the murder may have also lived in this
state. The police are on the lookout
for man answering to his descrip-
ton, but up to the time Of going to
press no suspects have been arrested.
All the freight yards, especially, are

BAD MAN SHOT,.
A Deputy Sheriff was the Quicker with
His Gun.

Rawlins. Nov. 1S.-Deputy Sher'
i'll Meldrum recently received the de,
s~cription of Noah Wilkerson. who es,
capped from Jail at Coleman, Tex. in
June last, and, learning that the man
was on his way from Middle Park,
Colo, to the Browns park country the
officer set out to intercept him. When
Medium ordered Wilkerson to throw
up his hands, the latter attempted to
pull his gun, which he carried in the
bosom of his shirt. The trigger caught
in the shirt and before Wilkerson could
use it Meldrum had put a bullet in his
bI ain.
Sheriff Mcdaniel and Coroner Ben
nett have gone to the scene n the
body will probably be brought to Raw
Inns. There seems to be no doubt that
the officers got the right man. Sher-
iff Kirk of Runnels county, Texas, has
been notified and is en- route to Raw
Inns to identify the remains. There
was a reward for Wilkerson, who IA
wanted in Texas for murder.

COWBOYS HEROIC ACT.
Saves Two Little Girls from Beng
Gored to Death.

Cheyenne, Nov. 1S.-Clair Under
wood, a cowboy from Iron mountain,
performed a deed of heroism seldom
witnessed anywhere. Underwood was
driving a herd of steers to the Chey-
enne packing house and had reached
a point east of the city cemetery, when
two little girls were seen walking to-
ward the animals. The steers were
raised on the plains many miles north
of Cheyenne and were as wild as deer.
Not being used to seeing persons on
foot. the animals made a dash for the
little girls Underwood noticed the
movement, also that n steer was far
in advance of the main bunch and with
head bent low was rapidly overhauling
the children. Quickly christening his
lariat. Underwood put spurs to his
horse and dashed after the maddened
steer. Whirling his rope around his
head as his horse sped over the prai-
RE. the cowboy reached the scene in
the nick of time and cast the loop over
the horns of the wild beast just as he
was about to gore the two girls. The
little ones had fallen to the ground
and but for Underwood's timely work
would certainly have been badly in
jured or killed.

1t is apparent that the towns along
the Union Pacific are now the hunting
grounds for crooks and rascals Of all
kinds. These men have been proving
upon the graders in the camps. Film
Hammers, bunCo men. hOld-ups and
plain thieves have reaped large prof
its. and now, winter coming on. they
are gathering in the towns and keep
ing up their work.
The two cases of burglary reported
t. the police yesterday are likely to
be followed by Others and it will be
wise for citizens to look carefully to
their houses. The efforts of the Off.
GERS to run down the burglars have
beer vain thus far and there is not a
cry good chance o. their succeeding.
Rawlins is suffering from d~epredations
of the same kind and Cheyenne has
had a number of burglaries lately.
When such men begin their operations
in a town they usually make a week or
two or it and accordingly repetitions
o. the o~ffenses reported may be look
ed for almost with certainty. Instead
of reducing the police force there may
be necessity for increasing it to give
the city adequate protection from the
crooks who are paying Wyoming a
visit.

fire shots commenced to strike all a

ROB AN ELEVATOR,
Thieves Steal Wheat from the
Northern Grain Company
of Dale.

Dale, Wis, June 9.-[Special IA
grain robbery was committed at the ele-
vator of the Northern Grain company
Twenty bushels of wheat were made
away with. No clue has thus far been
obtained. The thieves entered the eleva-
tor through basement window and
climbed mp through to the floor above
where they opened Il slide in the chute
which leads the grain directly in the
freight cars when loading such. In this
maner they let the grain into car that
was standing in position to be loaded,
where they sacked it at their leisure
Some 400 to 500 bushels might have been
secured had they located the slide in the
chute which permits the grain to empty
from the store bin. AS it was the TWEEN
ty bushels secured had been left in the
shipping scale, and it was the slide they
located and opened, that emptied it. A
Waterman on duty for the Wisconsin

supposition that the team was stationed

Horizon Citizens Do Not Want
Tournament Held on the
Sabbath

Horizon, Wis, June Especial. I
The Dodge County Firemen's association
is planning for big tournament and
street parade to be held here Sunday,
June II. Many of the citizens of this
place are determined that the tournament
shall not be held on Sunday, June II, or
any other Sunday for that matter. They
feel that it is not right for the fremen
to use the Sabbath for amusement and
efforts will be made to have the associa-
ton select another day. If the associa-
ton persists in holding it's tournament
as planned some of the citizens threaten
to take out warrants against the partici-
pants and have them prosecuted under
the state Sunday observance law.
