COWBOYS KILL
ENTIRE FAMILY
Father and Five Sons and
Three Cowboys Dead
After the Fray
RESULT OF DISPUTE OVER LAND

McCook. Neb.. June "Details OF
the annihilation OF a whole family
have been received from ST. Francis.
Kansas. Il seems that for some time
there has been bad feeling between
men employed by the DeWar Cattle
Company and a family named Berry
over the possession OF certain land.
Berry and his four sons engaged In a
battle with cowboys. which resulted in
the death of all OF them. Three cow
boys we're killed.
Land had been taken up by old man
Berry as homestead The fences OF
the cattle company interfered with his
passage to and from the roads. Wire
cutting on the part of Berry in order
20 get the shortest possible road to
/ town is said to have been the original
cause of the quarrel The cowboys
on the DeWar ranch had threatened to
\ kill the family.
The fight resulted in eight deaths
and came after a recent trip of the
i Berry family TO town. The father and
\ four sons were returning to their

nation they stopped to cut their way
through a wire fence. The cowboys
came upon them just as they complet-
ed the work The Berrys mounted
quickly, and the cowboys fired. The
Oldest boy, John, was shot, but stayed
in his saddle. The Berrys had the
fastest mounts and soon we're beyond
accurate fire range. The cowboys
kept up a scattering fusilade OF shots
Arriving home. the Berrys did moi
think they had been pursued all the
way. and they we're in front Of the
house when the party of cowboys rode
up the hill. a few yards TO the north
The shooting began Immediately. Two
OF the Berry boys we're killed before
they could get their rifles. The old
man and the other two boys got inside
the house. There we're about 20 COW
boys. and they started on the galloI
for the house. intending to fire It and
burn the defenders out. The old mar
and the boys attempted 70 escape from
the other side of the house and were
shot down in succession. Three OF the
cowboys were killed by the farmers
while they were defending the house

EIGHT DEAD IN COLLISION
Disastrous Wreck On Santa Fe Road
at StiIIwelI, Kansas.

Topeka, Kan. June 5.-A disastrous
head-on collision between Santa Fe
passenger trains at Stillwell. near
Olathe. killed eight people and in
jured three One train was going
west at full speed and crashed into
the Chicago section of the eastbound.
NO passengers on the westbound train
were injured or killed, while on the
eastbound five were killed and three
injured Three tramps who were
stealing ride on the Chicago train
are among the killed.
The trains were routed on the Mis-
souri, Pacific tracks on account Of the
floods. Orders were sent out by the
train dispatcher for the trains to meet
at StillwelL II is charged at the
Santa Fe Office here that the Chicago
train crew disregarded this injunction
and ran a mile or more past the meet
ing place. The westbound did not
stop at Stillwell, but on running slowly
by the engineer saw no other train,
and as he had a clear track, according
to his orders, he rushed ahead.

SMART GINGHAM FROCKS

Silk gingham frocks are most useful
and also attractive for midsummer
wear, and while the material is one
hat is not suited to any elaborate
ityle, and should be made up more for
Every day and morning wear, exceed
ngly smart are the models for that
style.
For the popular short skirt, with
,ither blouse and crash to match, a silk
bingham, in striped gray and white,
With a flecb Of black through it, is
|harming; but it must be admitted that
he blouse skirt jacket is far smarter
han q long coat, for the material is
OF heavy enough for a cosy garment.
good skirt is a pleated one, with
ledium length pleated coat to match,
q gray and white, black and white, red
t.ad white and blue and white.
+ OF all the wash materials these ging-
ans are the most effective made in
tied and bOned waists, for there is
othing lavish about silk gingham.

be desired, and the same lines of trim
ming down either side of the front
breadth a band of beading.wit the vel
vet slipped through it, put on as bead
ing TO the attached 1ounce. or as
trimming on the flounce itself. The
pleated shirt waist gown effect is also
fashionable in silk gingham, made to
wear with fancy collars and cuffs or
with a deep cape collar of embroidery
or heavy lace. The design of the
plain ground, with small figures Of the
same color, is also very effective in silk
gingham and can be made in either Of
the designs, Just described.
1t is really remarkable how many
wash materials are fashionable this
season. SILK and lace gowns are, as
always, and even more than usual,
thought absolutely necessary, but a lot
of time, thought and money is expend-
ed on gowns of wash materials, ging-
hams, muslins, batistes, dimities and,
in fact, all the old fashioned and many
new fashioned fabrics that for many
years were quite out Of fashion. and
when made always had to be lined with
silk or muslin, and by no possibility
could be washed and with much diff
Guilty cleaned. Now all these gowns
are so made that they can easily be
laundried, or at all events cen be clean
ed without great expense.
