KILLED BY TRAIN
Wichita Man Met with Acct
dent at La Junta.
LEFT HERE MONDAY
MONDAY
Brother Received Dispatch
Announcing His Death.

Jake martin of this city received a
telegram from the coroner at La Junta
yesterday morning stating that his
brother Frank Martin, who left here Mon
day morning for some point in Mexico
had been killed by train at that place
and that the body wiuld be held for in
structions. None of the particulars were
given but it is thought that the body will
fbe shipped here and that further par
ticulars will be learned today
Frank Martin has lived in this city for
years He was a son of Arch Martin and
together with his brother Jake and father
lived On South Santa Fe street He was
about thirty years of age and for the
past year has been working around the
city as a stonemason. Before that he
worked for Preston the plumber and
has always been known as a steady
worker and a quiet and unassuming man.
Monday morning he left over the Santa
Fe for New Mexico intending to work
there this fall and winter. He expected
to spend some time on the way visiting
the Colorado Resorts but according to
the dispatch he had not yet reached
Denver when he met his death. The
manner in which he was killed is I'M
known. His friends stated last night
that he was not a drinking man and
there is little chance that he could have
met his death because of that. The father
and brother were shocked by the news
but could give no additional information.
The body will be sent to this city at
once for burial

CAR OF WATERMELoNS
Came in Yesterday for Saturdays
Business.

A big car load of watermelons came in
yesterday and at the rate they were be
ing sold yesterday there will not be many
left when the stores close tonight Ii
required two days to dispose of a ear
of melons beginning Wednesday and the
demand for melons is such that this ear
will not last more than two days The
watermelons come from Texas and the
Indian Territory and sell at wholesale
at one cent a pound.
There is a good supply of home grown
tomatoes this week and one can buy them
for three pounds for a dime. They are
large and solid and not too ripe.
Canteloupes come from Texas and the
Indian Territory and sell readily at ten
cents each up The smaller ones can be
purchased at three for 20 cents. These
are conteloupes grown from Rocky Ford
seed in the south and by many are con-
sidered superior in favor TO the Rocky
Ford melon.
There are plenty Of cucumbers shipped
I'm and they sell az three for dime, and
fine roasting ears at a dozen for dime.

TWO BOYS DISAPPEAR.
Have Been Missing From Home Since
Wednesday.

c. E. Mahaney, who lives north of the
city. was in town yesterday looking for
his son Gerald and his nephew, Charles
Mahaney. who have been missing from
their home since Wednesday. He fears
that they have been kidnapped and made
a thorough search of the city yesterday.
He also autographed to friends at River
dale, thinking that the boys might have
made up their minds to go there. The
boys are u and years of age. The
younger boy lives with his grandparents
on North Market street. The father Of
the younger boy was working on a build
ing on Nineteenth street Wednesday and
during the day his son came to visit him.
While there he was joined by his coousin
and about o'clock they started out for
the home OF Gerald Mahaney, north of
the city. where the younger boy said he
would spend the night. When Mr.. Ma
haney went home to supper the boys
were there. but when he called them a
few minutes later they had disappeared
and could not be found. He supposed
that they would be back in a short time
and paid no more attention to their dis
appearance until they failed TO return at
night While in the city yesterday Mr..
Mahaney stated that while he hoped the
boys had run away he feared they had
been kidnapped. He says they had little
money with them at the time they disap-
peared. and as neither was old enough
to earn much he thinks they would re-
turn if it We're possible. Ihe parents of
the boys are very much worried and
would be thankful for any information
that would lead to their finding

MISSED THE TRAIN.
Auto Stopped ard Refused to Go When
Mile From Depot.

The Kiowa Journal tells the following
story of an auto trip:
Last Tuesday morning c. Q. Chandler
Senator Chester 1. Long and r. r. Fro
man got up before daybreak and took the
automobile route for Kiowa, Mess-s.
Chapdler and Long wishing to take the
early Missouri Pacific train from this
place. All went well until they arrived
within a mile of town, when the auto
baked and 'twan't no use, the tarnel
thing had stopped for keeps. The train
pulled out without the distinguished pas
sengers, who walked to town, and hired
a liveryman TO haul them and the balky
machine back from whence they came.
I'VE understand that there gentlemen
have returned their auto passes and
hereafter when they have an early train
to make will hire a livery turnout.

count of the curve and down grade the
engineer on No. 80 saw the train too late
TO stop.

EIGHT RURAL ROUTES
Post Master Secured Authority
to Establish One East of Town
MORE LETTER CARRIERS
Unofficial Notice of Increase
in Number Came Yesterday.

/ Rural Route No. has been authorized
! by the postoffice department. The notice
was received here yesterday and the car
rier will be started on this route within
/ Central avenue about twelve miles, and
thence two miles south and returns to
the city The carrier will serve nearly
six hundred people
Unofficial notice was also received here
announcing that additional letter car
riers would be allowed this city begin
ming September l. The postmaster has
asked for three additional carriers for
this city and it is believed that these have
been authorized. COL Murdoch has been
working hard for some time TO secure
more carriers for this city in order to
serve the people according to the sched-
ules. For some time there has been COM
plant of poor service which the post
master was powerless to remedy. The
department allowed but eighteen carriers
to serve thirty-two thousand people and
owing TO the large territory some car
tlcfS were CO4HpcllSu ~ NONcA A. vas
possible 20 give the best of service.
With the three new carriers it will be
possible 20 give the business district bet
ter service, more deliveries and regularly
than heretofore and the outlying districts
will also be assured of regular deliveries.
The city will be redstricted, the routes
shortened and formed that the greatest
number of people may be served in the
eight hours which the carrier is allowed
to work.
a carrier can serve two thousand peo-
pie with ease if they are in buildings,
close to each other and the carrier is
not compelled to walk too much in max
ing deliveries. A carrier in residence
districts cannot serve such a large num-
Der and on the routes near the city
limits the carrier must drive long dis
tances to serve a few people.

STOLE ELECTRICIANS WHEEL.
MIR. Morris Lost Bicycle From the City
Building.

City Electrician Norris was real warm
yesterday and the way he landed on the
police made the coppers sweat blood
Mr. Morris wheel was stolen from tho
City building. 1t stood in the hallway al
the west front. right under the noses
of the police; yet some brave, bold, bac
man took il and rode away.
Mr.. Morris wires got crossed and tht
way he mixed up ohms, amperes, volts
incandescents and a few other typica
electrical terms was enough TO put :
dynamo out of business for a week Th'
wires were small and the resistance pow
erful until Mr.. Morris told the brave
blue-coated coppers that he wanted his
wheel and would not fix any moro
FLINDERS until he got it. The cops got
busy then, but the bold, bad man who
would ''swipe" a wheel right under The
policemen's nose had made away witt
his booty

Fifty Years Ago.

down at the new church, and
a lot Of things they did, somehow, I
couldn't understand
A lot Of things tangled that we
never used to know
Way back among those Christmas times
Of fifty years ago.
The preacher rode TO meetin' in new
steam wagon which
Made such racket that 1t nigh scared
pobin In the ditch;
The sermon lfalrly rocked with words
nobody e'er heard dow
From good old Brother Dan'l Virgins,
fifty years ago
The organ was most wonderful; but
then it seemed to me
It didn't sound a. rev'rent as it some
how ought to be;
But when they sang "Joy 10 The World
-ah, then felt the glow
That thrilled my soul those Christmas
times VI n1ty years ago.
And through that good old anthem l
seemed taken back once ,uore
To where my soul could see across,
clear to the golden shore.
l Joined and sang, 1.-THE Lord u come!
Let earth receive her King!
Let every heart prepare him room, and
heaven and nature sing!"
All, twas q song to swell the heart.
The organ Numbered loud
Aud carried grardly heavenward the
voices of the crowd;
My soul looked out beyond the earth
and saw the CLEAN and glow
Across the walls of jasper where the
living waters flow.
Aud oyer all heard q voice raise high,
and ever higher
A girls sweet voice angelic floating
downward from the choir;
Its melody swift tangled in my tender
heart strings SO
There came to me q vision from that
Christmas long ago.
All, they were blu. as summer skies :
those tender eyes knew;
And ever from their depths saw loves
bright sun shining through
Loves sun that shone for me alone
straight out Of paradise
The paradise that lay within my little
sweetheart's eyes.
Aud a. the sweet-voiced singer sang,
again there came to me
A vision of the old log church, the lit
tie Christmas tree
Ablaze with tiny lights; heard voice
used to know
And love in those old Christmas times
Of fifty years ago.
I felt her hand upon my arm; I heard
the sleigh bells ring:
And through my mind the echoes ran,
'sLet heaven and nature sing!"
saw again the cedars bend benes tn
the chast'niny snow;
Again felt my sweethearts's kiss Of
fifty years ago.
Sing on for aye, O triumph song: Ny
spirit scars above
And joins a. anthem all-divine. . song
of purest love.
I've cast away the thralls OF age, dung
of the yoke Of time;
The mistletoe and holly boughs above
us wreathe and climb.
The song was done. The lights were
out. The echoes all were still
The blue eyes once more sleeping on
the long forgotten hill;
And am old-ah, very old! and yet my
dimming eyes
Have caught CLEAN prophetic from
the gates Of paradise.
"Joy to the world!" quaver DER the
i haunting old refrain
And smile on through the lonely tears
that fall like summer rain;
For every year that bows my head but
nearer brings, know
NV love of those old Christmas times
! of fifty years ago.
