item in the sheriff's duties here yester-
day. The fellows who stole DR.. Ryan s
horse and buggy was Arthur Langsford,
formerly Art Lawry, who has lived in
Emporia most of his life with the ex-
ception of two terms he has served in
the penitentiary. His accomplce in the
deal was Maggie Marshall, who lives in
the south part of town. These two young
people started out on a fatal wedding
trip which might not have proved So fatal
had they been satisfied with walking.
They thought DR.. Ryans horse and buggy
would make travelling much easier, so
they started out in style. Their idea was
to go to Kansas City and get married.
If possible to sell the doctors rig at To-
peka and then in a Pullman car 10 ride
to Kansas City, No, locate the pro-
bate judge and live happily ever after

Tom reached Peterstown he telephoned
to the marshal Of Scranton, and while the
two were talking, the Ryan buggy and
the eloped couple passed the building in
which the Scranton marshal was tele-
phoning TO O'Connor. Here the we'd
ding trip was knocked in the head and
the Scranton marshal held the two until

MUD WAS IN THE WAY
New Electric Line at lola Stops on
Outskirts Of City.

lola, Kan, Dec. 25.-This city. though
it has not yet full possession, will soon
have a street car line.
The new electric line was tested off,
cially and everything came to pass as
stated, with the exception that no car
was run into town and no newspaper
men picked up. This was because Of the
deep mud on the line at several points in
town. The car was taken out to La
Harpe and back successfully. Only about
half the power Of the engines was util-
lied, and most any speed desired could
be obtained. The rails out in the country
are high and firm and those on the car
say it SKINNED across the prairie like
a bird. and with remarkably little jar
for new track. Everything worked to
perfection, and was entirely satisfactory.
