OTTAWA MURDER CASE.
Women Charged With Butler
Killing Plead Not Guilty.

Ottawa, Kan, April MARY Mccoy,
Marie Stanley and Bessie Browning
were arraigned in court today charged
with the murder of J. 3. Booth. They
pleaded not guilty
It will be remembered that on January
II the body of J. B. Booth was found in
a well at the home of Mrs. Mccoy. He
had been knocked in the head with an
ak and thrown in the well. He had fire.
quently called to see Marie Stanley, had
given her money, and wanted to marry
her. Marie Stanley had taken the five
o'clock train out of Ottawa the morning
he was found, and the officers found her
in a Topeka hotel. She had worn a. red
skirt the evening before to the opera and
session at Topeka After a search
Booths watch with part of the chain
was found in the hotel, and the other
part was fastened to Booths vest. At
the preliminary the defendants attorney
refused to let them testify. From the
evidence the last that any witness had
seen of Booth alive was about six o'clock
at the Mccoy residence. Several young
men had called at the Mccoy place dur
while Booth was there, and also was at
the depot the next morning when Marie
took the train to Kansas City
Since the preliminary a sta tement has
been published that q cOlored man had
seen two persons before daylight at the
Mccoy well. He does not know whether
they were women or men with long
oVercoats. That morning Mrs Mccoy
left early to go to her work, and nearly
10 O'Clock Bessie Browning told the
neighbors of Booth being in their well.
Some blood was found in the kitchen
and some on a towel and some election
from a persons stomach near the well.

BIC ORCHARD SALE
Lyon County Farmer Sells Fruit
Farm For $4,000.
Contains 10 ,SOOVigorous Young
Bearing Apple Trees.

Emporia, April 7.-One of the finest
apple orchards in Kansas is located nine
miles north of here on the Whipple
ranch.
Mr.. whipple has owned the farm for
twelve years and has just sold it to
Clark H Martin, of Emporia, for APP
proximately $4,000
The farm contains $40 acres. OF this
the orchard comprises 100, and contains
1880 trees. These trees are all young
and vigorous and bore last year for the
first time. Every one of them was set
by Mr.. Whippie's own hands and in
rows of mathematical straightness. The
orchard stands on north slope On its
south and west sides is a hedge of
catalpas. which shield it from the hot
winds Of the summer The trees are
principally Jonathans, Ben Davis. wine
saps and Missouri pippins, and are ar
ranged in alteration.
There is also on the farm a nursery
of 100000 young peach trees and as
many currant bushes.
Mr. Whipple says that the prospects
for an immense apple crop were never
better. The trees are already swelling
with good healthy buds. The peaches,
however, are badly injured, if not totally
destroyed, by the late winter freeze.

WHEAT-The course of wheat the last

the holders. There has been nothing but

they have anything like as much wheat

Chinese Exclusion Bill Before
House For Amendment.

Washington, April 7.-Immediately az
ter the reading of the journal the house
today proceeded with the consideration
of the Chinese exclusion bill. General
debate having closed the bill was read
for amendment under the five minute
rule.
Mr. Kleburg, Texas, said that much
as he might like to vote for the bill,
he could not do so unless the provision
prohibiting the coming to the United
States of Chinese born in Hawaii and the
Philippines since their acquisition was
decided in the Wonk King Ark case that
the Chinese born in this country We're
American citizens. He thought that de-
cision fixed the status of such children
in our insular possession and unless the
provision went out. he would be forced
to vote against the BILL
Mr.. happen (Mass.) moved to strike
the provision from the bill
Mr.. Hill said he shared a certain ex-
tent the views of Mr.. Kleburg, but
thought the provision should remain in
the bill in order that the question raised
might be passed upon in the courts.
Mr.. happens motion was lost.
Two amendments were adopted with
out division, one by Mr.. Clark (A4o.) to
amend the definition of teacher" under
the privileged classes so as to require
that for two years before admission the
teacher should have been engaged in
teaching the higher branches, - and an
other by Mr.. Coombs (Cala-) to provide
that Chinese students shall leave the
country Immediately upon the compile
ton of their course of study.

I enjoy the spirited activity which
the people of North and South Hill City
enjoy" said one of her oldest citizens
because If it wasn't for that spirit of
good-natured rivalry town lots would be
clear out of sight financially"
Hill City has become popular Sun
day town for the travelling men. Two
first class hotels are doing all in their
power to invite in the Sunday visitors
Besides many of the home people patron
ize the hotels for their Sunday dinner.
I would rather live in Graham cpun-
ty than in Wisconsin," said one of our
citizens who has just returned from sew
eral months visit there, because land
in Wisconsin is worth 500 an acre,
and much Of it poor at that. while the
best farming land in the world can be
bought in Graham county all the way
from IS to $40 an acre. And Graham
county. too. is better watered with
more running streams than in most
counties in the old and settled state of
Wisconsin. I can make money easier
farming in Graham county than those
farmers back in Wisconsin, said the
returned Hill City visitor.
