Another Hotel Proposition.

A proposition to build a brick hotel
two stories in height and so feet deep,
on the site of the old Commercial hotel,
was discussed and canvassed this week.
A bonus of 81, 900 to any one who would
build and operate such hotel, with
at least Is rooms, steam heat, and
other modern appliances, was proposed
and so far $3.50 has been subscribed.
D. B. Derby, who owns and operates
a boarding and rooming house on
Broadway, signifed his inclination to
accept the proposition provided the lot
and the s., 900 bonus be donated. Mr..
Derby has made a success Of his room
ing and boarding house, and would, we
believe, make a success of the venture.
Thomas P. Leonard offered, If needed
to lease for hotel use, his furnished
rooms in his brick adjoining. GOOdland
needs Just such a hotel as IS proposed
but 10 build and furnish It would cal
for an outlay Of $4,000.

The contract for the building of the
second track of the Union Pacific rail-
road between Kansas City and Topeka
has been awarded to W. c. Bradbury
of Denver He will build sixty-seven
miles Of track, converting the present
single track between Kansas City and
Topeka to a double track system. IN
der the present arrangement the double
track system will be used by both the
Union Pacific and the Rock Island
systems.
simultaneously with the closing of
the contract with Mr.. Bradbury, the
contract for the building of the cutoff
between Topeka and MaTysville was
let TO Kirkpatrick Bros. & Collins, of
Beatrice, Nebraska. The construction
of this cutoff is the first step for a
shorter transcOntinental tine from Kan
sas City to the coast.
The building of the double track be-
tween Kansas City and Topeka will re-
live the most congested piece of railroad
track in western railroad territory. The
Rock Island recently renewed its lease
with the Union Pacific for the use of the
latter's tracks between Kansas City and
Topeka, with the understanding thai
the line was to be double tracked. Mr.
Bradbury will begin the work of laying
the second track at once. The con
structiOn will be of the best and mos
modern type and S5-POund steel rails
will be used. The sixty-seven mile:

To NV Patrons.

have sold my jewelry stock to Mr..
L. P. Hatch, who IS a first class watch
maker and jeweler, having thoroughly
learned the trade, and Is competent to
do all classes of fine work. 1t is with
pleasure that I recommend Mr.. Hatch
to you, for he has employed the greater
part Of his life, thus far, in Perfecting
himself IN his trade.
I wish to say to the public that watch
making is a science and is not learned
IN a few days, but is an art that requires
years of closest application and in
struction under the best tutors to fully
master. And every person ought to be
very careful as to whom they leave a
good watch with for repairs, as a botch
who has worked but a short time at the
trade often hangs out his sign.
Watch repairers often will do a good
watch more harm than would come to
it in a life time of natural wear and
tear. wish to thank the public forthe
kind patronage they have extended to
me in the past six years.
Yours respectfully, r. L. ERNST.

DEsPOTIsH OF TER GAR
Five Hundred People shot Down by the
SOldiery in the Streets Of ST Peters
burg Last Sunday-Entire Em-
Pire Under Martial Law.

Last Sunday the streets of ST. Peters

immense multitude of people, led by a

cross and an icon, sought an audince
with the car TO petition for a redress
Of grievances aud promise of reforms.
As they neared the palace grounds,
they were fired into by the troops and
hundreds were killed. men, women and
children going down before the murder

throughout the entire empire In Mos
COW, Odessa, SevastOPOl aRd other large
cities Of the empire the people have
risen in arms against the government
and the beginning of a bloody revOlu-

Father Gopon, the priest that led this
Peaceable procession of wOrkmen and
citizens, escaped the murderous fire Of
the soldiery and IS in hiding, but issues
PrOclamatiOns to the people and has
given his sanction to the popular revolt.
The Russian Social Democratic party
has issued a manifesto denOuncing the
wholesale murder and PrOclaiming a
revolution to overthrow the government

wise the revolutionists to respect Pri-
vate property, they urge the seizure of
all public and governmental property
such as forts and arsenals and war ma

immediate cessation of the war with
Japan, and the formation a constitu-
tiOnal form Of government. They only
need competent organizers and leaders

KILLED ON STREETS OF COLBY
H NRsEzBROCK, OF THoMAs COUNTY,
Is SHOT DOWN. By A. ROUPETZ.
ReuPetz Was Charged with Assault on
Miss Smith, Of Colby, and His Neighbor
Took Hand in the Trouble
ROuPetz in Jail

Murder broke the peace and quiet Of
the little city of Colby Monday afternoon
when Henry Kersenbrock, a German
farmer Of Thomas county, was shot and
Instantly killed by A. ROupetz, a Bohe-
mian farmer of the same neighborhood.
Roupetz used a 38-caliber revolver on
his victim, and fred three times. The
last shot struck Kersenbrock in the
neck, severing the spinal column.
The tragedy occurred on Main street,
and was the result of a neighbOrhood
feud. Roupez, charged with assault
and battery upon Miss Smith, had been
brought to Colby by Sheriff Croft Mon
day morning. Kersenbrock, a man of
powerful physique, and who had sided
with the Smith family in this unpleasant
episode, came to town that day
RouPetz and KersenbrOck met on the
streets of Colby and a quarrel followed,
in which the shooting occurred. ROu-
Petz was put in Jail, and preliminary
hearing set for Wednesday.
Kersenbrock leaves a wife and large
family Of small children.
Roupetz formerly lived in Sherman
county, on what IS now the James Var
ger place, six miles southwest of Good
land, and moved to Thomas county
after having sold his Sherman county
farm to Mr.. Yarger.
Kersenbrock was one Of those double
6sfed men that sometimes hold the
reighborhOOd in awe by their Pugilistic
proves. Before ne net with the dead
ly assault of ROupetz, he was slightly
wounded by shot from a pistol in the
hands Of J. o. McGruder, about year
ago. McGruder was never arrested,
and the trouble quieted down.
Nevertheless, the killing Of KeTsen-
brock was unjusti6able homicide, and
his assassin a coward.
