A SPEAKER EGGED.
Then Thrown Bodily From The Grand
Stand In The Park.

Saturday evening there landed in
Great Bend tough looking young
fellow who gives the name of w. r.
Ray, and Wichita as his home. About
$50 he climbed on a dry goods box
on Main street, at the southwest
corner of the square, and started to
speak. Night Marshal Hitchcock
advised him that be could not block
the sidewalks by speaking on the
street. but that he could go into the
Park and hold his meeting, The
fellow went TO the band stand and
commenced harangue, the drift of
which was, as the writer understood,
in the line of Sociaiistic talk. He
appeared to be partially drunk. and in
a short time crowd of probably
c pie of hundred people, mostly
men from the harvest fields, had
gathered around him.
Rays language and appearance
evidently led the crowd to think
lightly of his remarks, and they soon
began to boot and cheer him and
have all sorts of fun. Ray then be-,
came abusive, calling them hobos.
etc. Some of the more reckless
procured eggs and pasted the speaker
with them, yet he would not desist,
but kept up a rambling, senseless
harangue.
Then a fellow, whose name we
could not learn, did a cowardly, I'M
called for act. He went up into the
band stand, and grabbing the spea Ike
who was standing on the seat,
threw him over the railing to the
ground outside, fall OF about 7 feet.
One of Rays arms was broken at the
wrist, and the other wrist badly
sprained in the fall.
Ray said he had no money and no
friends, and DR.. Morrison, the county
physician, was called by the Marshal
to dress his wounds. Ray at first
refused to receive treatment unless
there were witnesses to the operation.
Later he was taken to the hospital
room in the county Jail, when he
agreed to submit to having his wounds
attended to.
The fellow who threw the man out
was nabbed as he came down from
the stand by Special Police
Chris Wagner, and landed in Jail.
There was no talk of lynching
either the speaker or the man who
assaulted him although after the act
here was good deal of warm feeling
On both sides, and many wild and
rumors were started by |
fellows who have little regard for the
truth and who like to be sensational. |
Neither of the two men principally
involved are good citizens, and the
city can get along very well without
hem.

ington. Miss Eighty-one is teaching
school in Mexico and the youngest
daughter, Kittie o. is attending
school there.
In speaking of t he unusual
names of his children Mr.. Turley
said he desired to have some ne W
names in his family and a the
evidence shows he succeeded adj
mirably. Miss Eighty.One was so
named because she was named in
1881. Nothing, or Trix, received
her name from her father who had
suggested that she he called limo,
but his wife objected to this name
and in speaking of it she said"ImO
Nothing" and in taking this cue
Mr.. Turley named her Nothing.
The sons came from the nurse
calling to Mr.. Turley after his
birth to Come and look at it."
MIR. Turley enjoys the merriment
caused by the unusual names of
his children and has just as much
fun out of it as any one.

About Girls Who Flirt.
Aug 81 o. vol 6 no A

To begin with don't. Don't try
to flag down the first good looking
stranger that gets off the train in
your town, says the LoBelle Star.
If he's got good sense he'll despise
you for it. A man never wants to
marry a girl that will flirt with
him. A man that is worth having
won't marry a girl that he has
caught at the end of u bandker-
chief or other kind of Irritation.
He won't trust her. If a girl
should happen to catch fellow
through a Irritation, its dollars to
doughnuts that his head is the
shape of a quarter of pie with
the point up, and the girls father
will have both Of them to support.
Any girl can catch a fool, but it
takes a wise, sweet girl to catch a
man. When a good looking, well
dressed man getG off train or
drives into a town there are al
ways some girls who think they
will die If they don't get acqaain-
ted with him, quick, and are not
willing to wait for the proper kind
Of an acquaintance and begin to flag
him down. A girl who attracts
the attention of a stranger by any
kind of signs lowers herse@ in his
estimation, and she will never live
long enough to live it down. When
a young man begins looking for a
wife it is not the flirt or fresh girl
that he wants, for he is sure to find
out all the good qualities of the
girl that il worth marrying. BE
quiz: and Ihdylike, don't fear, you
wo at he overlooked in the grand
roundup the man that is worthy
of a good, pure girl. Fathers and
mothers, if you don't want yOur
girl left on your hands a bunch of
excess baggage, look to it that she
makes the right kind of acquaint-
ance in the right way.

Mrs. Adelia HoneywOod Van De.
venter was born May IS, 1888, 10
Shelby county, Kentucky, and was
reared in the counties of Shelby
and Jessamine. In the year 1855
she removed with her father, Sam

where she was married in 1854 to
DR.. w. II. Van Deyenter. She
died in Laddonia, Mo-, August 30,
1905, aged ~ years an d fout
months. Mrs. Van Deventer is
survived by one brother, DR.. j. S.
Drake, of Santa Fe, Mo-, and by a
sister, Mrs. Brown Young. OF
NichOlasyille, Ky.
She was the mother OF three
children one Of whom, a daughter,
died in infanoyi the other two, DR..
4. D. Van Deventer, of Laddonia,
Mo. and Mrs. John X. Brown, of
Mexico, Mo-. survive her and were
privileged to be with her during
her last ILLNESS.
She has been a Christian from
early life; a member first OF The
Associate Reformed, and in lat er
years of the Presbyterian church.
She held her membership for the
past ten years with the cOngrega-
ton of Laddonia, Mo. The funer-
al services in connection with her
death were held from the home of
her son at Laddonia August 30
and were conducted by Rev. A. A.
Wallace, of Mexico and Rev. Wei
sci Beale, of Laddonia.
The character of Mrs. Vande-
venter revealed many beautiful
traits. Her gentle and quiet
graceS won for her large circle OF
friends, who loved her for "tho Or
nament OF Il meek and quiet spirit,
which in the sight of God is of
great price.
But while gentle and retiring in
manner she was not wanting in the
possession Of the stirring graces of
faith devotion and zeal.
Beneath the unruffled and mod.
est demeanor there was a courage
and herOism truly noble. She bore
suffering for years in silence and
and without a word of complaint.
The trouble which brought her to
the grave she endured long before
it was suspected by even a single
member Of her family. This she
did for others sake that they might
be spared, as long as possible. the
anxiety and worry over an incur
able malady.
Her faith was not of the kind
reserved for great scenes of trial;
It was manifested in all events of
her life. When on her dying bed |

because thru days of vigor,
health aud life she had nOurished
t in praying and exercised it daily.
Dying grace she had cherished.
The word of God she had pur-
,osely hidden in her heart, stored
