= The past week in Wichita has been dull
1T is too hot for any one to enjoy to any
great degree a social function unless the
affair is an outdoor one. So with few eX-
cepdons the events Of the second week IN
July have been trolley parties, boat rides,
picnics and hay rides. Weddings We're
even less numerous.
This week promises TO be little better.
in fact it will be two months before So
ciety can see logically how to proceed
with any profit

MOSES II VIEWER KILLED.
Meets Death on G. & N. W.. Railway
Track Near Manning.

M. H. Viewer, aged father of our ex-
suddenly killed Monday evening on
miles this side of Manning by being
train about $50 p. m.
Mr.. Viewer had only returned week
ago Saturday from spedning the win
ter in California with his daughter,
and had been visiting his sons at
Scranton. He was on his way to Au-
dubon to visit his son A. L. Viewer
and family. He came on the North
Western train from Carroll to Man
ming. At Manning the train is divid-
ed, one part going to Harlan and the
other coming to Audubon. Mr.. Viewer
mistakenly remained in the Harlan
car until the Audubon train had left
the Manning depot. Being thus left
at Manning and feeling disappointed
he started to walk down the track to
Audubon.
On reaching the cut three miles to
the southwest of Manning, in which
cut there is sharp curve, he met the
train going back north. The engineer
whistled and from the best we can
over as he walked, looked up startled,
not understanding for an instant from
which way the train was coming.
However. he soon started to leave the
track and had got nearly out of the
way, but was q little too slow, the
steam chest of the engine striking him
knocking him to the ground. The
train which was going about twenty
ctr N me
hurried to his assistance. After be-
ing reached he only breathed few
times and died. The body was put on
the train and taken to Manning.
A Masonic watch charm which he wore
was discovered and the Masons at
Manning took charge of and cared
for the body. A. l.. Viewer was sum
moned by telephone and he in COM
pany with G. w. Hoover and Clyde
Baker drove to Manning at once. The
Carroll county coroner did not arrive
there until the next morning, but then
waived the inquest and the body was
brought here Tuesday forenoon. An
examination of the body showed the
posterior part of the skull broken,
neck broken, one leg broken, hands
and body slightly bruised.
moses ii. viewer was DoFn DcC. Il,
1919, in Onondago Co., N. Y, being
past SO years old at his death. He
moved to Illinois in 1858, to Shelby
county, Iowa, 1886 and to Audubon
county, 1888. He was married when
young man, his wife dying in 1883.
In 1860 he was married again, hiswife
living only about a year. His third
wife died in 1886, He has seven child
rem still living, A. L., Audubon;
Will and Bert, Scranton; G. W.,
Shelby Co; Mrs. Prosser, Los Angles,
CAL; Mrs. Barstow, of Seattle,
Wash. Mrs. Currier, of Stark coun-
ty, Ill. Mr.. Viewer was an honest, re-
spected and hard working man. He
was remarkably well presevered man
for his age. He was blacksmith for
sixty years.
The funeral was yesterday at l:30 p.
m. from A. L. Viewers residence and
was conducted by Rev. Mccormick.
Burial was in Maple Grove cemetery.
The four sons were present, but the
three sisters, who live at such a dis
lance, were unable to be there. The
public extends sympathy on this sad
occasion,

REPENTS IN THE JAIL
Prisoner Writes a Letter and
Spends New Years Day
Praying.

One prisoner in the county Jail turned
over new leaf yesterday. The leaf is
apparently a religious one. He spent
the entire morning in a private cell pray
ing Tor forgiveness for his past sins. In
a uniquely constructed and spelled letter
10 Jailer Thomas. he declared that he in
tended to lead new life from now on and
Iorsake the ways Of sin and crime.
The prisoner is awaiting a hearing on
the charge of pecit larceny and has often
protested his innocence TO the jailer Yes
terday morning, as the prisoners were
brought out to breakfast this prisoner
handed letter to Jailer Thomas, and aft
er breakfast asked If he might be allowed
to go into one of the private cells for a
while. He was granted the request, and
spent the entire morning on his knees,
praying.
The letter was as follows:
( HAPPY New Yahrs- Dear Br- Thomas:
With beginning of this New Yahr
will beginning a better living. I will
start right WIT in and pray TO the Lord
God to vorgive me me sim. But am
innocent. l am not guilty Now, will
you let me have for me a room alone SO
! can pray"
The letter was signed with the prison
er's name. which the jailer did not care
to disclose.
