FROM THE NE>NSNlAN's NOTES

have never heard that Judge Per-
ry ever laid claim to being the hand
sumcst man in Honolulu, but If he
ever had any uneXpressed idea that
he was. It was heartlessly crushed a
few days Sgo in Judge Robinson's
court room. And the worst of it is
that the hand that dealt the cruel
blow was that of lady. She snatch
ed the blue ribbon from Perry and
bestowed 1t upon DR.. Cooper.
1t happened in the course Of the
trial of the twin damage suits of
Weldon against Chaplin. Weldon
claimed to have been injured in an
accident caused by his horse being
frightened by the footing Of Chapin's
buzz-wagoT horn. and the japanese
nurse who looked after him in the
hospital was on the witness stand to
tell what she knew of his injuries.
She was asked what doctor attend
ed Weldon, but replied that she could
not remember his name.
Wei. what did he look like?" ask
ed Perry
He was as tail as you are" an
swcrcd the lady, but he was a much
handsomcr man"
And it later developed that the doc
tor was DR.. Cooper.

J. Lor WallaCh, the eminent salad

some reputation as conversational

always set on hair trigger, ready

was placed in an embarrassing posi-
ton yesterday from which not even
his gift of CAB could eXtricate him
gracefully.

ROB THE lola STATION.
Operator Leaves So in Change Which
Suddenly Disappears.


lola, Kan, Jan. 1.-THE Missouri
Pacific depot was visited by a bold
thief yesterday shortly after dinner.
Operator Ernest Russell on his way
back to the offices from his dinner
stepped in the bank and exchanged a
So bill for dimes for change.
When he went into the office of the
the ticket window while he removed
his overcoat. Just as he got his coat
off. he heard the telegraph instrument
ticking the call of the dispatcher at
Wichita. He hurried to the instrument
forgetting, of course, about the money.
He was at the instrument several min
utes and when he turned about to get
the money it was gone.
Two suspicious looking characters
were lounging about the waiting roor,
when Mr.. Russell came in. He re-
members that while he was talking to
the train dispatcher one of the fellows
stepped up close to the ticket win
dow. Mr.. Russell surmised at once
that they took the money, and not hes
itatingly put the challenge to them.
They denied it vigorously. The men
later went out. Mr.. Russell telephon-
ed for the police. Officer Greed went
down and with Yardmaster Tom Long
found the men in the yards last eve
ming. The men were arrested for vag-
rancy and lodged in jail. Mr.. Greed
searched them closely but found no
money!

Business at Piqua.

lola, Kan, jan, 17.-For several
days a string of teams has passed
through lola, coming from the south
and leaving for the west. They are
hauling brick to Piqua FOR use in the
construction of a pumping plant about
a mile from that place.
The plant is being erected by the
Uncle Sam Refinery company and will
be used in forcing crude oil through
the pipe from the big field to the COM

Atchison.
The pipe line across the state passes
along the west edge of Allen county

ordered for it, but the amount proved
too small and 5000 brick were bought
of one of the plants here and teams
are hauling the brick to the site.
