THEY THOUGHT HIM DEAD.
Albert Snyder Returns to FL Dorado
After Long Absence.

Wichita, Oct 20.-After an absence
of ten years, during which time his
parents at Eldorado had thought him
dead, Albert NJ. Snyder returned to
Wichita and took tht $50 Missouri
Pacific train for Eldorado to surprise
his mother.
Snyder's story is as interesting as
it is pathetic. Twenty years ago he
courted and married comely Lily Fow-
Ter of EldOrado. OF this union two
children were born, Ernest, now IS,
and May Il. All went well with young
Snyder and his wife for a time, then
an angry cloud appeared on the hori-
zon of their married happiness. Sny-
der says his wife's people stirred up
strife. One day his sister-in-law, who
had been instigated by her brothers.
called him out to the Woodshed and
told him she wished to talk with him
He went, and not telling well he leaned
against the stack of wood, to hear
what she had to say. As she stood
there some one hit him over the head
with a stick Of wood, and before he
could turn around two shots were fired
at him. Neither, however, took effect,
but both passed through his coat.
Next day. Snyder, not wishing to
cause any more trouble. and knowing
he could not live in Eldorado under
these conditions. left, his destination
being unknown to his friends. He went
direct to Denver and secured employ
ment at the round house of the Den
yer & Rio Grande Railway company.

Glasco. Kas., Oct. 20.-The Method
ist Sabbath School children of Glasco
have an organization known as the
Grade Roll" with Mrs. Allie Cleaver
as president and Miss Annie Bates,
secretary and treasurer. The mem
bership now numbers nearly forty.
only children too young to go to Sab
bath school are eligible to become
members, and their ages range from
one to three years.
The object of the organization is a
noble one, for more than one reason.
Some of the women have taken Presi-
dent Roosevelt's advice in raising chill
dren, but the main one is that on every
birthday Of one of the children their
mothers invite in the members for an
afternoon outing" and treat them all
to all the delicacies good for thems
even if it be soothing syrup.
The last meeting was held at the
home of DR.. and Mrs. w. B. Newton.
and the attendance of babies was about
two dozen. and they made such a
racket that the doctor "hiked'' out for
the afternoon. At the age of three
years the babies are fired out Of the
order, and in some cases the mothers
have to spank them before they will
go to Sabbath school. Tt is doubtful
If there is another Grade Roll" or

The biggest game which will be
played in this part of the state this
year IS to be pulled off at Washburn
park this afternoon when the sturdy
Congregationalists under the leader
ship of Captain Wister Williams will
line up against the husky noun
taineers of the University of Colorado
It is generally conceded that the game
even money indicates. Colorado will
in all probability attempt to buck the
Washburn line until it is worn out and
a good deal of the result depends on
the ability of the Washburn line to
withstand these attacks. Washburn
viii probably not be able to do much
with the Colorado line but will play a
more open game.

Both teams are stronger this year and
both teams are strongly backed. It is

GRAVE AGRARIAN DISORDERS
INHABITANTS OF SEVENTY VII
Lagos PARTICIPATING IN
THE UPRISING.

st. Petersburg, Sept. H-Grave
agrarian disorders have broken out in
the province of Viatka, the center of
disturbance being the important dis
trict Of Malmuish, with population of
over 100000, where, according to the
reports received, the inhabitants of
seventy villages have joined in the up
rising, have disarmed and expelled
the police and are pillaging and de-
stroying the residences OF the land
owners and devastating the country.
1t is rumored at Viatka that the ad-
ministratiye police chiefs in the NAL
muish district and eight of their sub
ordinates have been killed. The ex-
cesses began Sept. 20 with a riot over
the enrolment of army reserve men
for their autumn service. At the vii
lage of Multania a mob of peasants at
tackled the enrolment station, killed a
sergeant and six rural policemen, NOR
tally wounded the assistant police
chief Of the district and destroyed the
lists of reserve men. The Viborg
manifesto Is thought to be more di-
rectly responsible for the disorders
than anything else. It had a wide
circulation in Fiatka province and its
exhortation to the peasants to refuse
to perform military service was spread
by the members of the outlawed par
lament from Viatka. -
