JESTER GOES TO OKLAHOMA
Rides to station and Boards Same Car
With Ansel Gates

Alexander Jester has gone to his old
home at Norman, o. 7. He left New
London in high glee over his acquittal
He is more erect and less feeble than he
was when he leaned over on his cane and
looked sorrowfully at the jury as they
passed out to make verdict. He swings
his cane clear of the sidewalk and walks
briskly without assistance.
By some strange fate Ansel A Gates,
Alexander Jester and J. c. Hoffman all
rode down to the station in the same
carriage and on to Hannibal in the same
coach Mr.. Gates shook hands with Jes-
ter's attorneys, assuring them that he
bore them no i'll will and complimenting
them on the hard fight they had made.
Hoffman, the detective who trailed Jes-
ter with such unerring precision over sew
eral states and through so many years,
shook hands with the old man and said
goodbye. Beside these there were in the
party Cullen. Mcintyre, Allison and
Juryman H. L. Jarmon, who in going
down from New London to Hannibal this
morning rode for the first time on a rail-
way
Jester will accompany his children to
Oklahoma and will live with his son
William Hill and will preach occasionally
as opportunity offers.

AND STILL THEY COME
There Were Two Runaways Yester-
day--No Fatalities.

Wichita is gaining a reputation for
runaways that is second to none in the
state and many are now putting the
question who will be the next injured.
Yesterday there were but two runaway
horses reported. No one was hurt, but
this was probably because there was not
anyone in the vehicles. A delivery horse
which was left unhitched on North To-
peka while the boy delivered some gro
ceries made start for liberty and ran
four blocks before he was captured In
the afternoon another horse drawing a
delivery wagon became frightened on
East Douglas and ran away When it
passed the railroad tracks going west
only the single-tree was being dragged
and it was hitting the animals feet at
every leap, which only had a tendency
to increase the speed. When last seen
the horse was going south on St Francis
avenue.

TRADE CONTINUES GOOD
Merchants Say IL Was the Best July
in Yenrs

Probably no other town in the state
of Kansas can boast OF having a larger
retail or wholesale trade than Wichita
had last month. While July is a SLOW
month for the merchants. this year was
an exception to the rule. as good many
merchants report that the last July beat
all previous July months for years. This
is not due to any special feature for
that month alone but is attributed to a
general increase in business in all chan
nels Of trade. Nearly every month dur
ing this year the receipts have been lar
ger than the corresponding months Of
last year. IN speaking of the contin-
ued good trade, in July a Douglas ave-
nue. merchant said yesterday:
The July trade has proved beyond all
expectations for US, and il all houses
have done as well as We have, there
should be no cause for complaint, We
expected the usual dull trade that COM
mences in July and continues through
August. but we We're very much sur
prised when trade continued good. OF
course it was no December or April. but
l. was good enough"
