LIVED AND DIED lNFILTH
Peter Daugherty, Hermit, Passes Away
In His Dugout.

Wichita. Kan, Oct. 2o.-Peter Daugh-
erty, a hermit, was found dead yester-
day in his dugout on the state line be-
tween Kansas and Oklahoma near
Hunnewell Daugherty had lived in the
dugout for many years. He had a
house on his farm, but seldom used it.
He was So years old. Daugherty en-
listed in Company K, Fifth Ohio vol
Mexican war. He also served In the
Civil war
Daugherty has never passed a night
without a lighted lamp in his room. In
the Mexican war, native crept into
the room and murdered Daugherty' 9
companion and severely wounded
Daugherty.
His idea N living underground was
that when he died it would probably be
without anyone being near. He re-
quested his neighbors that when he
was found dead they should simply
push the roof of his dugout in upon
his body and then I'LL up the hole
Daugherty was more than six feet
tall and in his prime he weighed near
ly 500 pounds, all bone and muscle. At
the time of his death he weighed about
200 pounds and this was after he had
passed through five months of illness.
He lived in dirt for years and seemed
to glory in 1t. Few people even went
near him and those who did told
shocking stories of his hlthiness and
the great accumulation of dirt in his
house. People were afraid to touch
him.
About two months ago two girls.
each about IT years of age, determined
to clean up the dugout. Daugherty was
then very i'll with fever and was often
unconscious. The two girls worked
half a day and had almost completed
their task when the hermit became
conscious. When he saw the girls and
what they were doing he climbed out
of bed and chased them back to town.
He often said he did not want his
place cleaned up.
About two weeks ago some men
went to call upon Daugherty to see If
he was recovering from his illness or
needed anything. They found him ly-
ing on a pallet, wearing a girls felt
hat with flowers in 1t and smoking q
clay pipe.
An old friend who had watched over
him for years and who visited him Of
ten, found the old man dead when he
went to the dugout yesterday after
noon Neighbors arranged a funeral
for him.

GETS MORE LAND.
Santa Fe Buys the Old Farms
worth Farm.
viii Use 1t for Car Storage and
Material Yards.


Officials of the Atchison, Topeka &
Santa Fe railway company are losing
no time in accomplishing the prelim-
inaries for the mammoth shop inn
provement plans, which have been de-
cided on for this city, part Of which
are already under construction, and all
of which will be completed inside Of
three years. when the working force
have been increased by several thou
sand.
Within the last few days the com
pany has secured title to $50 acres of
land, the old Farnsworth farm, which
is directly to the east of the land it
recently acquired from the Klein
estate, and where active work is going
on now in the construction of the big
car repair shops and the other features
of the enlarged shop plant which the
company proposes to complete this
year.
This new acquisition Of land is for
the purpose of providing adequate car
storage facilities for the shops, and all
so for the establishment of a big lum-
Der storage plant or material yards.
Between twenty-five and thirty acres
of this newest purchase. and that por-
ton of the eighty acres. which are
=
car repair shop is being built,
will be laid out for the
car storage yards, and work in build
ing these yards and laying the neces-
sary track will begin at once so that
they viii be ready for use at about the
same time that the hammers and ma
chinery begin to do their work in the
car repair shops.
When this big shop gets running
fun blast all of the cars on the sys-
tenn in need of extensive repairs will
be brought here. and the necessity of
large car storage yards is patent. And
so the company has started right to
work to provide these yards and was
able to get the property It needed and
in the best sort of a location for them.
Beyond these car storage yards and
on the land which has been bought
within the last few days will be Iocat-
ed the new lumber storage yards,
which have been planned as part Of
the shop Improvement. At the pres
ent time the lumber yards for the
shops are located just to the east of
Washington avenue and between
Fourth and Sixth. avenues. While these
yards are of good size they are not
overhandy for the shops and their size
will be entireI inadequate when
the shop Improvement plans have been
developed according 10 the present
ideas so it has been decided to create
a new lumber storage yard on the
property just bought, which viii be Of
rather enormous proportions, and
which provide all sorts of facilities for
the storing an aging of lumber.
It is not likely that the work of
building these lumber storage yards
viii be started for some time, but the
plans for them have been made and
the property for them purchased.
It is understood that the price paid
was $3.50 per acre or about S67 600.

American securities continued their

those of the opening yesterday. Union
Pacific opened at 1892 against 1885

The United States can hardly expect
London to finance the whole world and
We are now confident that our per
cent rate is a safe and permanent pro-
lection against further inroads on our

present of a Z per cent rate, but and
even 8 per cent will be adopted if nee

Therefore if the United States contin-

THE LORD TOOK HIM.
The Leper Whom Nobody Wanted
About Is Dead.

Clarksburg, W. Va, Oct. 20.-George
RasEid, the Syrian leper, who several
months ago was driven from various
cities in the east because of his aff1ic-
ton, died in a shanty at Pickens, near
here. Heart failure was the cause of
his death, the body will be cremated by
the county authorities. The leper had
been located in a shanty built especial
ly for him after his removal to that
place by the Baltimore & Ohio Rail-
way company a few months ago, and
nurse was placed in attendance.
Rashid left Elkins, ". Va, to go to
a leper colony in New York but was
discovered and elected from the train
and later captured at Keyser. The
railroad company shipped him east in a
boxcar, but he was not allowed to en-
ter Philadelphia and was sent back to
Baltimore where he was housed in the
boxcar a number of days until one
night when the Maryland health auth
critics placed him secretly in the vesti-
buIe of a coach and he was taken
through here TO Parkersburg where the
Baltimore & Ohio railway officials re-
fused to receive the train until after
his removal. He was kept under a
shade tree there q day or so, and then
was run into Randolph county on a
special at night.
At first the railway company pro-
vided for his wants until the county
and state authorities took charge of
him. Later a nurse came from New
York to look after him but he circula-
ted freely on the streets of Pickens
and was assaulted and later shot at
several times at the Shanty.
