Eagles Organize.

Great Bend Aerie, Fraternal Order
of Eagles was organized last Friday
night, with something over so charter
members. The work was done by
H. c. Hayes, the deputy who has
been here the past week or ten days
working it up. The election of
officers resulted as follows:
Worthy Past President, w. F.
Seward; Worthy President, J. E
Hotchkiss, Worthy Vice President
some member from Hoisington, whose
name we did not learn, Treasurer, D.
o. Gray, Jr., clerk, D. c. Luse, Jr
The Aerie starts out with a good big
membership, and will probably sue
coed in building up to considerable
strength.

EIIinWood to the Front.

We are always glad to see any
improvements that are made by any
of the neighboring cities of our county,
but We seem to watch for improve
ments in Ellinwood with more than
ordinary interest, and that for the
reason that it is the old home town of
the junior editor. Ellinwood is
generally recognized as one of the
most substantial towns IN the western
part of the state, and in fact we dare
say in the entire state. 1t is sur
rounded by as good farming COM
munity, both in the nature of the soil,
and the farmers who till the same,
that is to be found throughout the
length and breadth of the land. Much
of the activity in the way of improve
ments shown in the city the past year
or two is due the commercial club. In
addition to the water plant recently
purchased by the city, the Eclub
through a committee composed of
w. Leo Bockemohle, P. B. Kimpler
and H. D. Back, in connection with
the city officials, are figuring on
installing a system of electric street
lights, and we venture the assertion
that it will not be any half way plant
either. This is move that should
be taken up by our own people at
home for the benefit of the city, and
we trust soon will be. At the recent
meeting of the commercial club OF
Ellinwood, Joe Cooke was again
elected president, w. Leo Bockemohle
treasurer, and w. J. Herman secretary.
! In addition the board of directors is
composed of H. D. Back, P. B.
Kimpler, Mic Sprinkler, A. Steckel
and Fred Stephan. They are rustlers
from Cooke down or up, either way
! Won wish to take it.

Collins was hung here today at the
county Jail, at one thirty, in the pres
ence of large crowd.
The execution of Collins was lated
to occur this morniog, but was de-
layed until afternoon at the request
of the witnesses, lawyers, and court
attaches concerned in the trial Of
Collins partner, Rudolgh. Collins
this morning made request from the
sheriff that he hire brass band to
play a merry tune while he was on the
scaffold, but the sheriff could not
accede to the request as there was no
brasso band in town. Collins spent
) two hours this morning with his
spiritual adviser. @
Bank robbery, murder, jail-break
and confession of religion are the
four salient features in the life of
George Collins which ended on the
gallows hereo today. He expiated
with his life the killing of Charles J.
Schumacher, a detective, in lonely
part of Franklin county Missouri,
January %, 1908.
Collins and his pal, "Bill'' Rudolph,
whose trial for the murder for which
Collins died was started last Tuesd ay
robbed the bank of Union, Mo-, in
December 1902. They dynamited
the safe, stole $12,153, stood off a
handful of armed citizens and
escaped into the country. They took
refuge in little cabin. The Ameri-
can Bankers Association of which
the robbed bank is a member, hired
detectige agency to apprehend the
criminals and not to spare time
money or energy in doing SO. De
tectives thought Collins and Rudolph
were secreted in a lonely cabin, and
Schumacher disguised as a hunter,
approached ito He was shot dead
and the two yopag men fed.
William A. Pinkerton, for whom
Schumacheb worked. after the latters
death publicly announced:
"The earth isnot large enough to
afofd a hiding place for Collins and
Rudolph"
G.. H. Chadesworth, an assistant
superintendent of detectives, visited

When Mr. Davis returned later in the

not in its customary place--in fact that
it was not in the room-it had disap-

the missing articles in an adjoining

and minus the $500, which represented
several months of hard labor.
