Oklahoma City. o. T., May 22.-There

Sheriff O'Bricn. Chief of Police limerick
and one or two other officers were on

all sides looking for man whom they
expected to enter the train.
That man was W. J. Cole, who conduct

trouble recently but getting into a quar-
rel with Ed &. Smith, teamster, and
biting off the latters nose.
The county authorities. after several

for Coles arrest. and it beng learned that

HE DIES OF APOPLEXY

Oklahoma City, o. T, May A.-George
w. Jones, commander of the G. \. p
post al Oklahoma City, was. while bath
ing about 10 p. m. Tuesday night, sud
denly stricken down and died the next
day at p. m.
Mr. Jones was one of the oldest resi-
dents OF the city. coming here at the
opening. and has dwelt on the north side
of Fourth street just west of the Santa
Fe tracks. ever since. His wife died
here February 10. 1890. He was the
father OF Alva Jones, Efiie Jones (now
Efie Cheatam), and also Of Bernie Jones.
late Republican candidate for city clerk,
says the OkIahoman.
Mr.. Jones had laid out his clothing pre-
paratory 10 going TO the grand eneamp-
ment of the G.. a. r. at Norman, and
was bathing preparatory TO a start the
next morning, when he was stricken and
instead of going on his intepded journey
to Norman to once more meet his living
comrades he went on longer journey 10
the camps OF comrades gone on before.
Mr.. Jones was born at Tyleryille. LiT-
ingston county, New York, March 80. ISn,
and was hence in his 6Srd year. He en-
listed in the First New York at the
opening of the civil war and served in
the Army OF the Potomac until the close
OF the war; and was in over forty-four
engagements, among which were Ne
CleIlan's soven-day battles before Rich
mond. Spottsylvania, the Wilderness and
around Petersburg. ana he finally wit
messed Lees surrender at AppamatOX.
Thus one more eye and speaking witness
to probably the greatest event in Ameri-
san history has become silent and will
tell that story no more forever.
Mr.. Jones was never on the sick list
and was never absent from any battle in
which his regiment was engaged. and yet
was never wounded. certainly remarlSa-

He was married to Hattie Turley at
Rochester. n. Y. March IS. 1866. and of
this marriage the children before named
We're born. He lived after his marriage

homa. He was a quiet, modest gentle
man. kind in the extreme, respected by
all who knew him and reverenced and es-
teemed most highly by those who knew
him best. His death takes from our city
one of its most familiar faces and one
of its best citizens.

figured on a balky team. That came af-
terward. When they got into the stream
SO that the water ran INTO the buggy,
the team refused to go any further. At
ter using all the persuasive measures
known TO the driver and his passenger,
the team finally fetched loose from the
buggy and the driver waded ashore with
the horses. leaving our friend Ladd sit
ting in the buggy in mid-stream, where
he remained for two or three hours. He
had Chicago paper with him which
he read for half an hour or so, but that
got uresonae and he looked about for
something else TO do. Just then a big
black bug flew into the buggy and this
gave him an idea. He captured the ug,
made a fish hook from a big brass pin
and fastened it to the buggy whip with
a string and proceeded to angle for suck
ers. Meanwhile the buggy had been set
Ting down in the qUicksand and the wa
ter was UP to the buggy seat, but the
fishing proceeded. Pretty soon he felt
a tug at the line and began TO pull in.
AT first it was a question whether he
would be pulled in, but after a fierce
struggle he had the pleasure of seeing
an immense catfish appear on the sur
face and make overtures of surrender.
Just as he thought he had a cinch on
the cat, however. the pin hook straight
ened out and the monster placed his
thumb TO his nose and sailed off down
stream. In about three hours a farmer
came along with a mule team, and in
answer to Friend Ladds frantic ges-
tures-he was now too far gone to make
an articulate sound-drove out into the
stream, hitched onto the buggy and
brought it ashore. Here the livery team
was attached to the buggy, but it baked
again and Friend Ladd was compelled
to make Ais way on foot, in a famished
condition, TO the nearest railroad sta
ton and so on to town, where he was
joyfully received by his anxious friends.
So that if you notice that his hair has
turned suddenly grey. you may know the
reason for it.

WANTS RENO
ON THE LINE
Journal Expert Lays Down
Route For Western
Pacific

The route at present being surveyed
for the Western Pacific leaves Reno
many miles off the line to the south
ward. Of course this would never do,
50 the Reno Journal man, most per-
sjstent builder Of paper railroads, has
laid out a route Of his own, the same
purporting to be traced from an "offi-
cial, map which came into his pos
session under"peculiar circumstances.
Maybe he made it. Anyway it brings
Reno on the line Of the Western Pa
cjfic, and that's sufficient justification
for almost any flight Of the imagination.
The route is laid down and described
by the Journal as follows:
The map that lies in front Of the
writer shows the proposed line to ex-
tend due west from Green River to
SalIna. where it crosses the Marys-
vile spur Of the D. r. & G. Thence
its course is west by northwest to the
Nevada line and only a trifle north OF
west to Reno.
From this city the road will run
northward to Beckwith summit, where
it will cross the Sierras. The route
thaough California is via Oroville,
Sacramento, Lathrop and Oakland. :
The Journal has assuredly picked
out the shortest possible route and also
the only possible one by which Keno
could have the distinction Of being a
station on the Western Pacific Rail
road. OF course the Journals route
ignores Salt Lake City altogether.
leaving it hundred miles to the
northward. but that is Of no conse-
quence as long as it gets into Keno
somehow.
But there is just one little thing that
tends to show that the Journal man
was long on zeal and short on judge
ment when he laid down the route tor
the Western Pacific, and that is that
the line from Salina, Utah. to the city
on the raging Truckee would haves to
cross four mountain ranges in Utah and
eight in Nevada, all running almos
due north and south. His line also
runs directly over the summit Of jeff
Davis peak. the highest mountain in
the State. These minor difficulties
could, of course, be obviated by1 the
investment Of say hundred millions
In tunnels. 1t would be money we'll
spent. just so George could have the
pride Of making Reno station on
his road.
But this Is about enough OF non
sense. In the meantime the Western
Pacific surveyors are going ahead With
the work Of laying out practical line
for the road. seemingly unmndful OF
the journals survey across the twelve
mountain ranges into Reno. The line
which is now being staked off is from
Salt Lake City to point on the c. r.
near Wells. thence down the Hum
boldt Valley to Winnemucca and in a
southWesternly direction from here and
in almost bee line for Beckwith pass
Keno will be miles to the southWard'
which will be very sad, but then prob
ably George Gould never heord OF there
being such place. says the Hum
boldt Standard.
The latest news from this actual
survey is the following from last Satur-
days Ogden Standard;
Joseph Carroll, a prominent business
man of Elko, Nevada. is in Ogden to-
