LOOKS LIKE PERSECUTION.
A Campaign Of Abuse Being Made
AGAINST an Allen County Farmer.

AZ- go - 01
lola, kan, Nov. 6.-An organized
effort seems to be being made to drive
the family of w. II. Amos out of Allen
county. MI. Amos who is a farmer
north of here, was recently accused
of killing a neighbours calf, and the
suit that followed became famous,
costing over $1,000 in court costs.
Following this came the persecu-
ton. Here's what happened:
May, 19O6-Well stopped with posts
and rocks.
August 2O-Pony dead in pasture.
Sept. Oak stake in hay field to
break
Sept. 14.-Fourteen cattle let out of
pasture.
Sept. 15-Mare's eye knocked out.
Oct. Horses jaw split; died.
Later.-Another horse mutilated,
500 chickens and turkeys stolen.
The first incident was the pasture
we'll. Amos leases it from the Prime
Western and there is a drilled we'll
on the place. The pond went dry
and this we'll furnished water. One
day he found it filed with rocks and
several stakes driven into it. Three
days work were required to open it up.
About August 20 he found one of
his ponies dead in the pasture.
On September 8, while moving hay
he found an oak stake, freshly split,
driven in the grass where it was like
ly to break the mower
on September II, fourteen head of
cattle mysteriously escaped from his
pasture. although no opening was
foundi in the fence. Several days later
they turned up in the pasture Of Will
lam Bird, two miles away, and Bird
knew nothing of it.
on September II, a valuable white
mare was found one morning with
one eye knocked out and bruises about
her jaw. Her gums were cut at the
base Of the teeth. as if with same
sharp instrument.
On October . another mare was
found with her mouth mutilated.
gums were cut, although no marks
showed on the outside of her mouth.
The cords under the tongue were
cut there was a wide slash across the
tongue. The Owe jaw was split as If
with a chisel, so the teeth divided. DR..
Howell fOund he could move the loose
pieces of jaw Independently. The ami
NAL died
A calf wandered away and came
back with its ear marked Amos ad-
of finding the man who had marked
it, but no claim was put In.
Another mares gums were cut re-
Gently in h usual name
Several hundred chickens and some
turkeys disappeared from his barn
just lately and have never been dis
covered.
Amos tells his story in a straight
tanner, without passion. DR.. How
ell confirms the unusual mutilation
of the horses.
1t all lends color to a belief that
there is an organized effort being
mad to force the Amos family to
another locality. Mr.. Amos has no in
tention of moving.

but as the trafic originating in the
wheat belt Of h state is as important
to the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe as
that on any part of the system, and as
the present facilities for handling it are
insufficient to meet its requirements, it
Is realized by the management Of the
road that this double tracking work
has become an absolute necessity.
This double tracking Will not be con-
fined to Kansas, but Will be carried
through to Chicago. East Of the Mis-
souri, river, 100 miles has been done, but
1856 miles have to be dealt with.
Another important piece OF work IN
contemplation is the building of the ex-
tension from Texico to Brownwood, to
onnect the Belen cutoff. just compile

CHAsED 4 HoRsETHIEF.
NeOsho County A. II. T. Association
Have an Exciting Time.

Chanute. Kan. Nov. 6.=The Cher
~ township lodge of the Anti-Horse
Thief association introduced a novelty
here in the way of a grand horse
thief chase The chase was joined by
several members Of the city lodge,
who enjoyed the innovation immense
ly.
In order to demonstrate the ability
and adeptness Of the association at
thief catching, John Foster, president
of the Cherry township lodge, was in
structed by the members to secretly
designate a certain one of them to
steal a horse and endeavor to get away
with it. The thief however. was
not allowed to go out Of the jurisdic-
ton of the Cherry township lodge.
None of the members knew which of
them stole the horse, nor from whom
it was to be stolen, and they proceed
I'D exactly in the same I'M as If a
real thief a committed the theft.
The alarm was given early in the
morning upon discovery OF the theft,
which was ordered to be committed
during the night. The member who
missed his horse notified President
Foster, he in turn notified the ~associa-
ton riders n they informed the
members, some seventy-hve strong.
the chase then proceeded in earnest
II the thief was not caught by
five o'clock in the afternoon he was
supposed to surrender himself and
end the chase.
In either case, capture or surrender.
the thief is to be tried by "the court"
Immediately preceding a big banquet
in the township hall at night. Attor-
ney James A. Brady Of his city will
ohciate as prosecuting attorney and
James Watson is to act as counsel for
the defense. At the conclusion of the
trial a sumptuous supper viii be served
and the weary Ants. having been in
the chase all day, will do ample jus
tice to the spread set before them. A
large number of the members Of the
local association viii go out to the
township hall tonight to partake OF
the feast and enjoy the mock trial.
The novelty has also attracted the at
tention of many lodges in the vicinity
and representatives are expected from
them.

advanced as to the motive that led 10

strongly condemning the act and all
expressed the wish hat the guilty per-
son might be sent to the penitentiary.
The mayor suggested a reward of $50.
Marshal Garten thought 500 would
start the ferrets to work. Mr.. Level

state. He thought $1,000 would not be
too much Councilman Kinney was not
in favor Of a large reward, as it often
led to the building up of c~ircuinstan-

The council finally voted to offer a re-
ward Of $500, all the councilmen voting
In favor of this amount except Council
man Kinney. So its $500 for the man
