that it is an error to conclude that cattle can
not be infected with human tuberculosis. The

When ten years old he came to Kansas
with his widowed mother who brought
her little family Of four children into
the boundless west TO make o new

the town Of Carlton now stands and
John, the youngest Of the family, saw
with the rest all the bardships that
the early days Of Dickinson entailed
on the pioneers. Ten years later
they moved to Abilene and this has
been his home since, except for bus.-

appointed it was difficult task and
many predicted his failure. But be
did not fail. He executed the laws
without fear or favor; everyone
received his rights and evil doers soon
learned that they could not buy or
bulldoze the marshal Of Abilene. 1t
took a few hard knocks to emphasize
this but finally they learned 1t. So
for fourteen years he has been city
marshal and bis salary has been
raised, out OF appreciation Of his abil.
ity, until 1t is the largest ever paid
by the city except in cattle trade
days. But he earns 1t and the city is
glad to pay it because he is a good
officer, one who keeps order all the
time and does it without fuss.
Mr.. Favor will make the same kind
Of sheriff. He will be the executive
OF all the people and will know no
friends or foes In the administration
OF his duties. Clear. headed, earnest,
good.natured and friendly, he will
make q model officer.

Of Dickinson county and q purse Of
$10O, $50 to be put up by each team.
Gate receipts to be arranged by repre-
sentatives from each team. Teams

day that the "challeDge" would not
even be noticed "Abileue has closed
its base ball ssasot," sAid be. .and'
does not propose TO reopen it. We
have beaten Chapman in 8 fair con-
test on q neutral diamond with dis
interested umpire and have demon
strated that Chapman is in no sense
the equal Of the Abilene team. The
proposal to play for the champion
ship Of Dickinson county is silly.
Abilene has already won the cham
pioLship Of central Kansas for the
season and there is no object in try
ing for less honor. Chapman knows
this ana we consider that no reply is
necessary to the challenge. Next
season II Chapman still thinks
it can play ball-and won't quit and
60 home il the umpire does not de-
eide just as Chapman wants him to-
1t will find Abilene ready to defend
its honors as the champion team Of

Special to the Reflector.
LoNGFoRD, Sept. 27.-J. j. Marty
cashier Of the Longford State bank,
committed suicide this morning about
9 o'clock by cutting his throat With q
pocketknife. He returned last Thurs
day from two weeks vacation trip
back east. which he took primarily for
bis health, and seemed much i'm
proved. This morning he went to
the orchard at his home north OF town
and cut his throat. His son saw him
and tried to stop the fathers mad
deed but in vain. Marty was well.to.
do and has been for years prominent
capitalist and politician Of Clay coun-
ty. He leaves a wife and family.
Dependency over ill health is the
only reason known that could have
caused the terrible deed.
Mr.. Marty was representative from
Clay county in the Legislature two

cratic and Populist circles.

POINTS FOR ABILENE.
Some Practical Ideas Az to Sensible
Street Paving.

In connection with the 50th ami
versary Of Lawrence's founding, at
tention il called to the sensible street
paving plan that has been followed in
that pretty city. The streets in the
residence portion are wide-as wide
as those in Abilene which are about
46 feet from curb to curb.
In the early '90's the residence
streets we're grass and weed grown,
except for the irregular wagon road
along the middle. There was moth
ing to indicate the curb lines; the
sidewalks were absent or approach
ing the impossible. Wooden fences
marked the lot lines. The only re-
deeming feature was the fine old
trees planted iu rows many years be-
fore. When paving was suggested
there were most violent protests;
the great width Of the streets made
paving impossible, they said. Here
the boosters showed them Q trick that
is too often overlooked in the paving
Of residence streets. The brick paw
ing was limited to thirty ieet-in
some cases even tWenty-6ve-snd
then came parking to the sidewalks.
Now the residence street in Lawrence
is 3 roadway narrow enough to have
been paved at small cost, and on
either side is q lawn shaded BY 6ne
old trees. There are no Prettier
home streets in any city than those

FARMER DIDN'T READ PAPERS.
Gssry County Man Swindled by
Travelling Sharper.

b. F. Edwards was captured yester'
day northeast Of town and brought to
this city where he was put in jail.
Sheriff Peeso came up from Junction
City and took him to that place where
he must answer to serious charge.
On Saturday, Louis Mass, a farmer
living ON Clark's creek eight miles
east Of junction City, notified the
county attorney and sheriff that he
had been the victim OF a swindle to
the extent Of $3.50 and that the man
who had swindled him was B. F. Ed
wards. .r
Edwards came\to junction some
time ago from Hartford, Kas., and
appointed W. A. Shane, q son-in.law
Of Mr.. Mass, as the agent for fence
machine. On Saturday he called on
Mass and presented couple OF papers
which he represented to be receipts
and asked him to sign them. Mass
signed both papers without looking
them over.
These papers turned out to be notes.
One Of them was for 5000 and the
other for $3.50. Mass filed com plant
against Edwards for obtaining his
signature under false pretenses.
Edwards came to Junction Satur-
day and sold the $3.50 note to local
business man and took merchandise
in part payment Of it. He tried to
dispose Of the other note at each Of
the banks and with individual but
those to whom be presented it were
and would not buy it,
