WE'RE SURROUNDED By FIRE.
Couple of Garden City Men Had Close
Call for Their Lives.

Garden City. Kan. March 29.-It
has Just come to light that Paul Ran
kin of the Evening Telegram, and
Chauncey Brown had a narrow escape
Sunday from being burned to death
by the forest fire south of town. near
the sand hills.
Mr.. Rankin had gone to the scene
of the fire for the purpose of covering
the story in detail for his paper and
had invited Mr.. Brown to accompany
him. In securing data on which to
build his story. Mr.. Rankin came a
little too close to the blaze and before
he could retreat the fire had surround
ed him. Mr.. Brown was quickly on
the scene and made a frantic effort to
save his friend from burning to death.
1t was a hard fight and lasted for the
greater part of an hour, during which
time both men worked furiously, and
had it not been for the placing of a
back fire both men would have lost
their lives.
With the exception of slight damage
to shoes and clothing no serious dam
age was done although the nerves of
both men were badly shaken.

HERE'S A UNIQUE LAWSUIT.
Fee Demanded for Finding a Man a

Fee Demanded for Finding Man a
Wife.
Pittsburg Kan, March 29.-One of
the most peculiar cases ever brought
in a Pittsburg court was filed yester-
day afternoon in Justice Holmes
court and will be tried.
Frank ]. Manning, as a "gobe-
tween" sues Henry Body for SO.
which he claims due him for services
rendered in the way of a matrimonial
agent.
The petition as filed says that on
December 1, 1906. the plaintiff and
defendant entered into an agreement
Of an oral nature, by the terms of
which the plaintiff was to find a wo-
man ready and willing to marry the
defendant who would be willing to
become engaged to him and later
marry him. Then and thereupon the
defendant was to pay the plaintiff the
sum of $40.
The petition states that on or about
February 1, 1907, the said plaintiff
found a suitable person and introduced
her to the defendant and thereafter or
about February Is, 1907. the said
woman and defendant became engaged
to each other. to enter into the mar
riage relation.
The defendant, however concluded
taste and refused to marry her and
also refused to pay Manning his fee,
hence the suit.
The case enjoys the distinction of
being the first one Of matrimonial

OTTAWA PEOPLE WELL FIXED.
Bank Deposits There Approximate
S1,SOO,OOO.

Ottawa. Kan, March 29.-The OF
tawa bank deposits are approximately
one million, eight hundred thousand
dollars at the present time. The round
numbers quoted rather exaggerate
the exact amount, which is between
one million, seven hundred thousand
and one million, eight hundred thous-
and dollars. The two national banks
make their statements in compliance
with the call of the comptroller of the
currency today.
While the total of bank deposits
throughout the state is beyond all pre-
vious records, it is believed that there
is no community of Ottawa's size and
character having such a substantial
amount of reserve cash in the banks.
The other banks in the county, out
side of Ottawa, have their own pros
perity story to tell.

Burlington, Kan, March 29.-Thia
community was surprised to learn Of
the consolidation of the Burlington
National and the Peoples National
bank. Both of the banks have been
doing a safe and profitable business
with deposits larger than ever before,
and no one except those on the inside
knew such a deal was on. The con-
solidated bank will be one of the
strongest in Kansas, the combined de-
posits amounting to practically half
million dollars. The directors are
among the best known. wealthiest and
most influential citizens of Corey
county. Practically all of the directors
and officers of both banks remain
with the bank. T. w. Foster will con-
tinue as president, with George @.
Hall, formerly president of the Bur-
lington, as vice president and G. G.
Burnham. cashier of the Burlington,
second vice president. Burlington is
town of $500 people and can now
boast of one of the strongest banks in
the state.

GOV. HoCH OFFERS REWARD.
Two Hundred Dollars for Conviction
of Handlers Murderer.


Wellington KAN March 29.-Gover-
nor Hoch has taken action in che Kand-
Ter case. He offers a reward for the
arrest and conviction of the murderer
or murd erers of John r. Handler in the
sum of two hundred dollars
There are still many mysterious re
ports about the HANDLER murder, but
the officers have nothing to report. A
man who claims to know says that
there were two men engaged in the
murder, and hints that he knows who
they are. Another says that there is
plenty of evidence which will come to
the surface later, and that man con-
nected with the crime has already part
ly confessed to friend. These are al
more in the nature of rumors, but the
belief that the man who actually struck
the blow is still in town is quite gen.
eral.
Handler has a brother in Chicago,who
is rich, but who has not been notified
of Johns death, so far as known. 1t is
thought that he would have a Finker-
ton force here Immediately if he knew
of it.
Thomas Nixon was down from Zyba
yesterday. He is the man who saw the
tramp IL miles north of town the next
morning after the murder, and it was
reported that his description and the
one given by Gray were identical. But
he says not. that there was no similar
ity of dress.
An eX-Offlc1al or this county received
an unsigned letter through the post
office this morning which said: The
man who burned Jim Alleys barn is
the man who killed Handler"
This is supposed to refer to James
Alley, of Oxford, who has suffered the
loss of a barn or two by fire, the flames
being caused by incendiaries Who set
the first one has never been discovered. |
and the man charged with the second |
one was tried and acquitted. Whether
this letter is just a joke or is intended |
for a pointer is not known, but it isn't |
much of a pointer, because no one |
knows who fired Alleys barn any moro |
than they know who killed Handler.
Now that the reward has been offered, |
however, it may be that some one who |
knows something about the case will |
furnish the information to the officers.

Leavenworth, Kan, March 29.-Leav-

toned fair this fall If indications point
to anything. The business men of the
town and a good many of the farmers
of the county have taken the matter up
in the right sort of way to bring about
the desired results. In order to get as
full a public expression as possible on
the subject it is proposed to hold ser
les of country meetings where the far
mers can meet with the men who are
interested in starting the fair. and talk
the matter over.
It is proposed to arrange meetings for
Tonganoxie, Boiling, Easton, Kickapoc
and probably at some of the school
houses In this way the farmers will
have an opportunity to learn for them
selves just what it is proposed to do If
