KICKER FAvlLrS TROUBLES
Are Laid besOr the Judge Again
Education Of the Children a
Question

Mr.. and Mrs. F. M. Kicker were be-
fore Judge Dickerson this morning to
have an understanding settled as to
their children. It will be recalled that
Mrs. Kicker was granted a divorce
and some months ago brought suit to
secure money from her former hus-
band for the maintenance and educa-
tion Of the children. At that time an
agreement was entered into and ap-
proved by the court whereby Mr..
Kicker was to pay Mrs. Kicker $500
compensation for expense already in
Cured by her and $500 annually for
educating the children at school to
be approved by the court.
Mrs. Kicker wants to keep the chill
dren in school here where her parents
live while Mr.. Kicker desires to place
them in private school at Salt Lake.
He expressed his willingness to have
the mother accompany them and to
provide for her the same as for the
children. Mr.. Kicker now lives in
Ely, New. The Judge took the matter
under advisement.

"THE CROP OUTLOOK"

This is the way the Anadarko DEM
ocrat discusses the Crop Outlook"
"The continued rains have put crops
over the country badly into weeds.
Perhaps it is fortunate that this en-
forced idleness on the part Of the
farmers falls into election week. I'm
til sundown next Saturday we are in
the throes Of election Next Mon
day morning we will all have to wake
up and go to work again in earnest.
The most enhancing election tale
will have lost it's flavor. Nobody
cares a durn whether Mr.. Jones real
ly did steal his neighbor's chickens,
the die will have been cast and all the
troubles that loom up SO big now viii
look mighty small. Even now, the
time is getting so close, candidates
hardly take the time to explain that
they never said it. Verify an election
is great thing; it is the dearest
birthright Of the Anglo-Saxon. We
may grumble about its hardships but
would not do without it for worlds.
But stop a minute-the above was
started in good faith for crop re-
port, and see how it slid into an cleo
ton talk 1t just simply shows that
there is nothing else in the air. 1t is
impossible to think, write or talk
on any other subject just now.
Therefore, let it go at that.

HOW DEAD MAN

One of the strangest of known incl dents in the history of the great na- tional game of baseball has been told and is vouohed for by Umpire Anderson, um- pirng in the Wisconsin State league this year, says the Record Herald.

 Benson won the morning game, ? to 1. by fiuke play in the ninth. Will mar was somewhat disheartened, but for the afternon game they were pitching Thellman. a twirler on whom every Willmar fan would bet his last dollar Thellman began to show the effects of the heat-and the score was still tie had been, in fact. since the second in hing. In the first half of the tenth Ben son got run by base on balls an CT TOT and a hit. Willmer fans looked pretty sick. Thellman was first up, and l could see he was about to the down and out mark
 With two and three on him. how ever he got lucky and biffed a single. The next man up, O'Toole was a player with a head that he could use. He met the first ball fair and square, and got what had every apeparance of being homer Thellman started for the plate. got to second all right, sta aggered a little on the way to third and fell flat on the third bag
 "OiToole came along, and, knowing that two runs would win the game, and that he could not score ahead of Theil- man, picked him up and carried him tn home plate Oroole dropped Thellman on home plate and then touched 1t him self I decided that the two runs count ed. A doctor came out on the field, looked at Thellman and pronounced him dead overcome by the heat That's what l meant when I said I knew of player who died at third base and then scored q run anyway
