FROM AMERICUs.
Party to Recent Fatal ARRAY Will
Seek Immediate Examination.

Americas, Ga, Nov. 6.-There were
no further developments or disclosure
to-day in Mize- Adderton tragedy of
yesterday. The funeral of young Mize
occurred this morning and was largely
attended. Young Adderton is confined
to his room under police surveillance
awaiting recovery from the terrible
knife thrust in the neck. He will
probably demand committal trial i'm
mediately and seek to secure liberty on
bond. 1t is not yet known whether the
relatives of young Mize who was killed
by Adderton will prosecute the case,
though the grand jury will doubtless
make a thorough investigation to de-
termne whether or not the case was
one of self defense.
Court convenes three weeks hence
and other evidence may be adducd that
time.
Frost and ice in abundance appeared
near Americas this morning and cane,

lola Woman Badly Burned.

Mrs. Ida Clark, wife of Harvey
Clark, of SOB south Sycamore, had a
very painful experience which all but
proved fatal while visiting relatives
near Hartford and told by the local
paper from which the following is
clipped.
Hartford Times: Mrs. Harvey
Clark, of lola, who is visiting her sis
ter, Mrs. John Rupart east of town,
narrowly escaped being burned to
death Wednesday afternoon. They

and while Mrs Clark was putting the
seasoning in the butter her clothing
caught afre and completely burned
from her body before the flames could
be extinguished. The heavy wooden
waist she was wearing at the time, and
which she buttoned tightly around
her, protected the upper part of her
body and face to great extent. The
hands and lower limbs were badly
burned, so much so that the skin peel
cd of from the flesh. She is gettir g

Mrs. Null Terribly Burned.

Late Monday afternoon Mrs.

street, was terribly burned by scald-
ing water Mrs. Null has suffered
from rheumatism until she is COM
PEELED to move about in a wheel chair.
Monday afternoon the girls put
some dish towels in the dish pan to
boil on the stove. Mrs. Null had
agreed to look after them and turn
the gas off in due time She did this
and then pulled the pan toward the
edge of the stove. Unfortunately she
pulled it too far and the contents of
the pan spilled into her lap. The
boiling water burned her hands and
soaked through her clothing, terribly
scalding her limbs. She was alone in
the house and unable to get out of her
chair. She screamed and DR.. Fulton.
who lives across the street, heard her
and hurried to the house. Everything
that medical skill could do was done
to alleviate her suiferiugs but the
burns are so extensive and deep that
it cannot be yet definitely known what
the result may be. He attended her
again today and expressed the fear
that it may be weeks and perhaps
months before the injuries will fully
heal.

who has won the tenderest esteem of

durance of suffering and her sweet
patience and the news of this new mis-
fortune was very distressing to her

CARRIED BY EIdH1 VOTES
Proposition to Vote S1l 900 Water
Works Bonds Came Near Losing
at LaIlarpe.

The election on the proposition to
vote Sl4, 600 in bonds for the cOnstruc-
tion of wafer works plant at La
Harpe was held Monday and the re-
suit was II victory for the bonds of
some eight votes. AS near as the
REGISTERS informantcouldr remember
the vote stood; 63 against and II for
the bonds.
The intention is to eXcavate a larger
pond than nature made northeast of
town and dam draw. From this
basin it is hoped enough water can be
secured to supply the town and fac
tories. At present the town is largely
dependent in summer on cisterns and
in dry weather these go dry and great
expense is incurred by the necessity of
hauling water from Elm creek nearly
"A mile distant. LaHarpe has ambi-
tions for securing more factories and
for this reason wants to be able to
guarantee them water and fire pro-
lection.
1t is just possible thata contest may
be filed against the issuing of the
bonds. There was some opposition to
them before the election as is shown
by the results. \ respectable minori-
ty claimed that the supply which can
be secured in the manner planned will
be inadequate and is sure to fail when
most needed. 1t is claimed the plant
will be a losing proposition for tine
town. And a great many people
argued that they would much rather
vote bonds for the extension of the
lola water works. They argued that
if Gas City would vote bonds and pay
for extending the mains from lola to
Gas City, LaHarpe would vote bonds
and extend to that town. Then both
towns would be sure of water and
each would pay just whatwas right for
what they used.

New Election Law Ruling.

a dispatch from Topeka to the Kan
sas Star says:
Assistant Attorney General Hamilton rem
dered an opinion to-day In reponse to an in
quiry from ]. II, Curren, secretary of the Pop
ulist state committee, in which it was held that
Populists and Democrats in nominating county
officers can not use Independent" Citizen
or similar names for their tickets The law
provides that nomination must be either
made by petition, or by party having IA ma
tional or state organization
Conventions for the nomination of county
and township Officers have already been held in
about hfty of the counties in the state and IA
majority of them have used some name for
their ticket which is forbidden 10y the statute.
The county committees will be obliged to call
the conventions together in the counties
where the law has not been complied with and
one OF the old party names win be selected
The foregoing was shown by REG
GsTER reporter to county attorney
John Goshorn and he says it is cor
rect, The laws prohibits two parties
meeting in joint convention and nam
ing anl''Independent" ticket. This can
only be done by petition. Mr.. Goshorn
says he thinks the townships of Allen
county complied with the law and that
Democrats and Populis;s met and
nominated under one name or the
other. Several peoples" tickets
were named
The Humboldt Union, however, re-
ports the Humboldt township conven-
tion in a way to indicate that the OPP
position down there has no legal
ticket out. The Union says; "a meet

BALL BROTHERS WERE HER
Well Known Fruit Jar Manufacturer,
Visited lola to see About The
Kansas Natural Gas.

GA. Ball and l.. l.. Ball, brothers,
from Muncie, Indiana, registered at
the Pennsylvania Hotel Monday
morning, having arrived in town on
the night train. They left Tuesday
afternoon without making any definite
statement as to what they think of the
Allen county gas field nor as to their
purpose in coming here.
Ball brothers are the manufacturers
of the Ball Fruit JAR which is cele-
brated the country over as an improv-
ed glass jar for canning fruit. The
company has become very rich in
making this patent article and op-
crates mammoth plant at Muncie.
They use gas for fuel and employ a
large number of men. The fruit Jar
business has grown rapidly and the
company has had all the work it
could do to fiji it's orders and today
there is Il glass jar famine all over
Kansas for the reason that the mer-
chants cannot get the jars as ordered.
Under the circumstances it is not
surprising that Ball brothers should
have an idea it might be a good thing
to build another plant. And it would
not be surprising if they decided that
Kansas and the country west Of the
Missouri would consume the output of
a plant out here and the freight rates
be saved, too. And least Of all would
it be surprising If they fixed upon lola
as the proper location for such
plant and looked this field over with
view to making proposition for gas
land.
The gentlemen were referred to the
Commercial Cluband were turned over
to Mr.. $. Heller, who drove them over
thecountry, showed them the factor
les nowhere and explained to them that
if they could see fit to make reason
able offer lola would meet them half
way. They departed without commit
ting themselves.
