A VISIT WITH KIT CARSON.

in the Anthony. Mo-. Republican MT. R. J. Alexander is giving some Rec affections of Fifty Years Ago." partc- ularly with respect to his life in Colo rado and New Mexico. He became the friend of General Kit Carson. and writes thus of his first introduction to the great plainsman:
 On the second day after our arrival at Taos, Carson visited at our camp all day. He appeared to feel that he had met old friends, as some of the party knew some of the people he knew. One particular reminiscencc made him laugh heartily. In the spring of 1850 the writer was attending court at Independence, Mo. Carson, not then known to the writer, was in the court room listening to the trial of a divorce case in which Judge Rupel B. Hicks was attorney for the defendant. Hicks closed his remarks with the fol- lowing backwoodS peroration: And when I am dead and defunct In the ab- stract. may my hide be tanned into drumheads on which to beat into gen. eratiCns yet unborn that I taught my sons to love their wives" We were Squatting around the camp fire smok- ing-Carson sprang up and grabbing
 my hand wrung it hard. laughing like a happy boy, and said: II know Judge Hicks well and l was there that day" As Carson left that evening he invited Captain Deak, Jim Fry, the humorist of the party. Judge Smedley and the
 writer to dine with him next day.
 Punctually We repaired to his resi- dence. The house was built of "dObiss" -sundried brick about four inches thick and about foot square, and was whitewashed a pure, snowy white. It
 was about 90 feet long, built with the side to the street. four small windows. l SX10 glass, and a door on the side and q low porch running the length of the
 building; it was the only house in Taos that had glazed windows. Inside, the room was 20X50 feet, seven feet high, making it look very low, no partions in this room ;there were five little round tables to seat four persons. an open fireplace in one end, a flax wheel near by, Yagur and a Mississippi rifle over the fireplace, which Carson said he never used, as they were not true, two dozen or more chairs, no other fur niture or ornaments, books or papers

LOST A HUSBAND
A Chicago Woman Seeks to Find Her
 Missing Spouse.

Mrs. Frank NovOtny of 105G West Nineteenth street, Chicago. is seeking information as to the whereabouts of her husband, and has written the iol- lowing letter to The Republican in the hopes that some of the papers readers may have seen such 3n individual as she describes:
 My husband, MT. Frank Novotny. left Chicago on Tuesday night, March II, 1902, for Phoenix, Arizona, arriving there on Saturday. March 1G. He stayed there until the 29th. and from there he went to Tucson CI April 15. Since April 15 I have. not heard from him. and as he always wrote at least once q week l am led to believe that some thing has happened to him. l was in formed by the town marshal of Tue son that judging from the conversation he had with my husband he was going back to Phoenix, or in that direction north to some of the mining camps. Acting on this information, l wrote to all the different mines in Arizona, ask ing them if my husband was employed or had applied for work, and they ad- vised me that they have no such per son in their employ.
 My husband had not been very well and thought that the climate in Ari- ZCna would benefit him, so concluded to go there and find work in the mines or anywhere he could at least pay his expenses until he felt better and would then return home
 He was a man of Bohemian nation ality. fifty eight years oi age, brown and gray mixed hair. weighed about 200 pounds. dressed in working clothes wore a black slouch hat. dark blue cutaway coat. black vest. dark trous- CTS with stripe, black shirt with white stripes; also were q belt around his pants: had q full smooth face. and one tooth was missing in the upper jaw or the right side of his face; he also wor. a rupture belt around his waist

She determined that he should never leave the Pacific ocean alive. At last he separated himself by accident from the rest of the batherS. That was the chance the red-headed woman had been waiting for ever since that kick. She edged toward him gradually and none of the bathers noticed the fiendish eX- pression in her face, or that her hair had turned a deeper red. When she was near enough to her victim she seized him by the hair and thrust him under the water. Her movement had been so swift that no one had observed the attack, and in the multitude of the bathers the disappearance of Mir
 Bullard from the scene of gaiety was not marked.
 But MT. Bullard did not succumb at once or easily. His struggle for life was prolonged and violent, but it would
 have been intellectual without adven- titious aid He was not allowed even the privilege of the fighting whale to
 come to the surface to blow. If whale cannot struggle long in the water without air how could MT. Bullard, who
 is still less of marine animal.
 After a while some of the bathers near the red-headcd woman observed
 her struggles. They next saw the de- mCniac grin. and as they drew nearer they saw that she was holding some struggling object beneath the water. Whatever it was it's resistance kept growing weaker. and the woman her self, weary of her eXertions, permitted
 the top of its head to rise slightly above the waves. Only a slight patch of hair was visible. but everybody rec ognized the hair of Mir Bullard, still pcmpadour even in semi-death. The horror-stricken spectators rushed upon the woman. and though she fought violently her victim was torn from her and taken to the United States. The
 only statement the woman would make was that the exercise she had had made her stomach feel better
 | As soon as Mir. Bullard was able to | travel he travelled, and he is now at
 Salt Lake. The members of the order
 here are wondering whether the grand lodge will institute any action against | the red-headed woman.
