The people of Greensburg, Kan,
are out of fuel and are suffering and
have asked the state board of rail-
road commissioners to help them
out. In complaint made bv tele-
graph to the board today the officials
of Greensburg declare that the r ock
Island road, which is the only line
running into that town, has confs-
Gated all the coal, and that the people
are in great distress. The board
has taken the complaint up with the
road and expects to furnish relief in
few days. Reports from other
Western Kansas towns show a short
age of fuel, and radical change in
the weather would bring on much
suffering. Judge Postlethwait says
that in Jewell and Smith counties
the farmers are hauling coal for fifty
miles.-Kansas City World.
John w. Davis, Republican can
didate for thelegislature from Kiowa
county, was beaten nearly to death
at his home last night. His assail-
antwas "Link" Olinger. The
trouble was due directly to a dispute
over the rent of land which Olinger
leased of Davis. 1t was caused in
directly by bitterness overthe recent
election in which Davis was defeated.
Olinger beat the attorney with his
fists causing internal hemorrhages.
1t is believed that Davis will recover

A New Republican Club.

A Republican club was formed at
the town hall Tuesday evening. The
meeting was called to order by G. H.
Thompson, chairman of the Republi-
can town committee. DR.. H. d. Hol-
ton was chosen president and w. Il.
Hubbard secretary. George W.
Pierce, c. c. Fits and Congressman
Haskins were selected as a committee
to prepare a list of officers. They re-
ported the following, who were chosen
unanimously: President, George L..
Durham; vice president James F..
Hooker; secretary, w. A. Gilbert;
treasurer, w. H. Vinton, with an exc
cutive committee, including the presi-
dent, vice president, c. H. Thompson,
l.. w. Hawley, G. S. Hopkins, II. G..
Barber, H. e. Taylor, e. W. Gibson, G..
r. Crosby, w. d. Stockwell j. Gray
Estey, S. A. Smith and George w.
Pierce. Col. Haskins spoke at some
length about plans for the campaign,
and the necessity for vigorous and
systematic work. He pointed out
that the danger to be met was not
so much in the election of a governor
as in the choice of a United States
senator and of judges of the state
supreme court, through a coalition of
Democrats and Clement Republicans.

story comes from Berlin that
the German crown prince is infatuated
with Miss Gladys Deacon, daughter
of the late Edward Parker Deacon,
and that he had violent quarrel with
his father when he expressed a desire
to renounce his rank and give up his
claim to the throne in order to marry
for love. The Deacon family came
to the public eye in 1892 at Cannes,
France, when Mr.. Deacon shot and
killed Emil Abeille, a wealthy French
clubman, who was suspected of being
his wife's lover. Mr.. Deacon was i'm
prisoned for a short time, but was
pardoned by President Carnot He
died in an asylum in Waverly. Mass,

$4,000 More Appropriated for connec-
ticut River Bridge.

Ten men We're present when the
special town meeting was called to
order at the town hall Tuesday after
noon at o'clock. and ten minutes
later all the business called for in the
warrant had been transacted. The
total attendance at the close was Is.
The meeting was called to order by
w, II. VintOn. chairman of the board
of selectmen. Town Clerk William S.
Newton read the call. At the request
of George w. Pierce, Mr. Vinton eX-
planned the object of the meeting by
stating that the bridge, for which a
contract had been made, would cost
$4,000. Brattleboro had already
raised $4,000, and Hinsdale $4,000
This left a shortage of $1,000, and
necessary expenses in connection with
building the bridge would call for
some added expenditure. The COM
mittee on the bridge believed it bet
ter to come to the people and ask for
the money now than to contract an
Indebtedness. and then ask for its pay
ment.
Mr., Pierce introduced a resolution,
appropriating a sum not exceeding
$500 for the construction of the Con-
necticut river bridge and abutments,
in addition to the $4,000 heretofore
appropriated. C. F. Thompson said
that the only trouble with the resolu-
ton was in not calling for enough
money; that the contingent expenses
were always larger than expected. He
believed that the resolution should be
amended to call for $4,000. When
this change had been made, the reso-
I,,f oA I;c
senting vote. Dr. d. p. Webster then
introduced resolution, authorizing
the selectmen to make a temporary
loan with which to pay the money
appropriated in previous resolution.

Card of Thanks.

We would express most hearty thanks
to the neighbors and friends. including
the members of the ladies' society, the
Sunday school, and Sunday school class
of the Congregational church, who so
kindly. in many ways, showed sympathy

funeral of our mother. The flowers of
such variety We're a great cheer, the help
in arranging them was much appreciated,
and no less were the more homely acts
of help a comfort to us.
