AT THREE CARD MONTE
Strong City Man Victim of
Wichita Sharpers.

Wichita, May Adam Williams, a
young farmer who says he lives at
Strong City and who has been working
near Hennessey, o. T.. for some time
is penniless in this city as a result Of
falling into bad company. He was re-
lieved of his railroad ticket and about
$45 in cash by two skillful manipulators
of a three card monte game and the
probable use of knockout drops last ev-
ening While waiting in the city between
trains
Williams arrived about o'clock on
the Rock Island from Hennessey. He
was on his way home and was COM
PEELED to wait over in Wichita for the
1875 Santa Fe train north He met
several men at the station and finally
two of them took him over to the near
est saloon for a drink.
He says as soon as they drank they
proposed a game of cards to pass away
which they said they were going TO
Newton. Williams agreed and they all
sat down together in an adjoining card
room.
About the time they sat down. Will
Gams said he felt a queer pain in his
head. He thought it was nothing more
than a severe headache and paid no
more attention to it. He entered into
the game and in a very short time lost
all the money he had. Then the men
told him their train was coming and
left him
williams says a short time after the
men left he became unconscious but
managed to stumble into the station
where he fell asleep or rather into a
sort of stupor out of which ne did not
arouse until late this morning.

In Oregon and Washington the crop,

Good stands of the early planted cot
