Three or four Of the Bucklin boys had
a nice little joke played on them Monday
evening. They had been at Dodge City
running lunch stand during the reunion.
They loaded their stand fixtures into a
box car and had them billed to Bucklln,
and as the coaches we're crowded they got
into the car with their fixtures. All
went well until the train got as far as
Willroads where, 1t seems that the train
crew had orders to set out an empty
grain car, the agent at Dodge City must
have got his numbers little mixed, at
any rate instead of setting out an empty
car the set Gut the Car Of humanity and
stand fixtures The boys did not not
notice what had been done to them until
the train had pulled out and left them
st anded there at flag station with no
way Of communication with the next
station. 1t was pretty warm about that
time Of the day, but we will venture to
say tnat II was hot In tine immediate
vicinity OF those boys when they realized
the fact that they were left aud that they
either had to stay there until the next day
or walk TO Ford distance Of ten or
twelve miles, but that was the condition
that confronted them and they walked.
They got into Ford about the time the
shades of night were closing around
them. There they rested and phoned to
Bucklin for r!g to come and bring them
home.

tween two and three O'Clock p. m. Friday
August 9th, 1907. Orlen had been sick
for over a year and the greater part Of
that time confined to his bed, but he was
ever patient and accomplishing, never
finding fault with those who attended
him. He had realized for months that
he could not recover, yet he was resigned
and willing to 60 whenever the Master
should call for him. The funeral was
held at the M. E. church at 300 o'clock
p. m. Saturday, August 10th, conducted
by Rev. Gilmore, pastor Of the church at
