THF PERRY FOR ALASKA B. (. MINING IN 1900
Senator Jones and Party VIII Visit
 Many Points of Interest

The United States revenue cutter Perry has sailed for Southeastern Alas ka with Senator Jones and his party as passengers. The Perry will visit Southeastern Alaskan points. touch ing at thc principal towns of the strip and at Prince Edward island.
 At thc last named place a number oi the members of the party are interest cd m mining properties. and it is in a large measure for this reason that the trip has been made Other matters. however. have called the senators and cougrcssmcu to Alaska. Interest m thc growing territory is the chief req son. During the voyage the Perry will make quite a stop at Skagway There the party will be entertained by the people of the town. They will ride over the White Pass and Yukon rail way as far as White Horse. In this. a, m the other stops they hope to get an idea of the needs of Alaska for leg. islation during the coming session of congress.
 The spots on Alaska's southeast coast which have become famous for their scenery will also be made objec- tive points m the Perry's voyage. Muir glacier and Sitka will be stopping places. as will Wrangel At Sitka the old Russian church and the famous lu- dian river win be visited.
 In view of the present agitation for new laws in Alaska and the movement now on foot for a territorial convcn. ton. the visit of this party to the dis irict is of much significance to the peo- pie, who will take pains to see that Alaska's needs are impressed on the minds of the congressmen.-P-L

From the Cimarron Jacksonian.

A jury was summoned by Cor
oner Geo. L. Hyatt in the inquest
held on the body of Eugene w.
Hall, deceased, and the inquiry
made as to the cause of his death.
The first sitting of the jury was at
the home of the deceased Thursday
evening, after the death of Mr.. Hall
at p. m. of that day. After ex-
amining one or two witnesses the
coroner ordered the body brought
to town and adjourned the further
hearing until Friday morning. The
body was placed in the court house,
and by order of the coroner, DR..
G. w. Hollembeak, of this city,
made post-mortem examination of
the body, removing the stomach
and analyzing it. He reported to
the jury that he had found arsenic
in the stomach.
The jury continued the work of
taking testimony until Tuesday, ex-
amining eleyen witnesses in all.
Tuesday morning the jury returned
verdict that the deceased had come
to his death by poison at the hands
of parties unknown to the jury.
The fact has been established be-
yond the question of doubt that
the deceased came to his death by
poison, and the circumstances at
tending the case are conclusive that
it was not an accidental case of
poisoning, but who the party or par
ties are Is as yet unknown to the jury.
The coroner has spared no effort
or expense in making the proper in
quiry in the case. Every clew that
has been found has been followed
closely and a thorough investigation
made in every instance.
That foul and most dastardly
crime has been comitted there is not
a doubt: but who did it is not known
now and may never be known.
The deceased has lived in this
county since 1879, and was known
as one of the most peacable and in
offensive men in the county. If he
had an enemy he or she are un-
known. When a motive is sought
for the commission of this crime
it is difficult to find one.

Obituary.

Mrs. Eva Graham, wife of J. A.
Graham, died at the home of her
sister, Mrs. VIM. Johnson, in Odee
township, Meade county, Kansas,
on the morning of March IS, at 4
O'Clock, and was buried at the Stone
school house cemetery, March 26.
She was SO years of age.
She leaves to mourn her depart
ure, a husband and six children, the
youngest being but two years of age,
an aged father and four sisters, three
of whom reside in Tennessee.
The deceased has been sufferer
from that dread disease, consump-
ton, for four years. Two years
ago she came to this section of the
country, thinking perhaps, the
change would benefit her health,
but to no avail, for the zone who
doeth all things we'll" saw fit to call
our loved one home.
She united with the South Metho-
dist church about eighteen years ago
and has remained a constant Chris
tian.
She has borne her suffering with
patience and submission, expressing
a dislike for leaving her husband,
children and home, yet a willing
ness to die if God so willed.
She departed this life asking God
to take care of her husband and
children and that they should meet
her in the "Great Beyond" where
there shall be no more death, neith-
er SORROW nor tears, but where all is
peace and joy. Her desire was that
her favorite hymn "All The Way
MY Savior Leads Me" should be
sung at the last.
Many sympathizing friends join
with the husband and family in their
great bereavement.
A FRIEND.

District Court.

On last Tuesday evening Judge
Madison arrived In the city and i'm
mediately convened court. The
case of the State of Kansas VS.. Jeff
Lewis, VIM. H. Lewis Jr., and John
Beatty was set for trial Wednesday
morning. A jury was impanneled
by Thursday morning and the case
was given to the jury Thursday ev-
ening and Friday morning they re-
turned verdict of acquittal. The
State was represented by Co. Atty.
Selvidge, Attorneys G. F. Grattan,
Painter, Griggs, Allen and Smith.
Judge Wall, T. A. Scates and Frank
Davis appeared for the defendants.
This was one of the larceny cases
brought few months ago, in which
Jess Lanam was one of the principal
witnesses. The animal in contro-
versy was alleged to have been taken
from Harry Hayden's pasture and
shipped from Fowler. This is the
second cattle case in which Beatty
and Lewis were acquitted. Lanam
was the principal witness in both
cases.
The case of the State of Kansas
VS.. VIM. Colgan came up for trial
Friday morning. This case was for
the larceny of saddle belonging to
Joe Martin, which he lost on the
night of the 3rd of July last. The
jury returned verdict of acquittal
Saturday morning. Judge Wall and
Frank Davis defended Mr.. Colgan.
There was considerable discussion
over this case and the prevailing
opinion seems to be that this case
should never have been taken into
court.
The Perkins cattle case was con-
tinued until April IS.
The civil action againstthe bonds
men of Mr.. Wiley was also contin-
ued until April IS.
Russell Berkau was granted di-
vorce from his wife, Almeda Ber-
kau.
Court adjourned Saturday morn
ing until April IS.

The belief is gaining ground that
a good many cattle have disappear
ed from the range in the central
part or the county this winter
either butchered or driven out of
the country. The work has been
quietly performed, but the stealing
has been done just the same. Such
artfully performed thievery could
not be performed without organiza-
ton, and all of the members are not
non-residents of the county. That
is true to a dead moral certainty

The City EIection.

At the city election last Monday
the following officers were elected for
the ensuing year:
Louis Boehler, Mayor;
J. M. Wood,
D. B. Stutsman,
o. Hamilton,
John Wehrle,
S. D. Adams, Councilmen;
w. N. Shamhart, Police Judge.
The day was disagreeable and
stormy, snow falling during the en-
tire day. Only 49 votes were poll
ed. There was but one ticket in
the field, and of course it was elect
ed.
These gentlemen, with the ex-
ception of Mr.. Hamilton, are the
present incumbents and were rightly
reelected. Mr.. Boehler, with the
present council, has done more for
the financial welfare of the city than
any previous administration. Up
to few months ago the city bond
ed indebtedness, including unpaid
interest, amounted to over 500, 600,
the bonds bearing 6 and 7 per cent.
interest. These officials employed
Judge Madison to try to secure a
compromise with the bond holders.
He went to work and as result the
Indebtedness was scaled down to
SI3,5oo with per cent. interest on
the funding bonds. 1t will certainly
be great saving to the city, and
these officers deserve the highest
praise of our citizens.

immense amount of country was
burned over and those who were de-
