granite and he thinks from 1ndica-

meets his expectations.

I can say onegood thing for the
Fowler people and that is that they
are not easily grated by any old
"cheap John" show that comes
around like the one that made it's
appearance last Friday night and
for want of attendance did not show
and says he, "The people must
think am an old farmer and have
not got anything" Methinks how
ever they were striking after the
truth too.

Frank Sie8eI Goes Free.

Roland Hughes, prosecuting at
torney of Jackson county, dismiss
ed today all the cases against Frank
Siegel, the member of the former
firm of Siegel-Sanders Live Stock
Commission company, who was
charged with embezzlement. There
were seven indictments returned
against Siegel.
The prosecutor said that one case
had been dismissed because ther
was no chance of conviction on the
evidence. The other cases were
dismissed because. the alleged crime
was committed in Kansas which is
not within the jurisdiction of the

ey and with it buying piano for

jury standing II for conviction and
for acquittal. On November II

ing 81, o83.6 60 from the company
