Wants Damages.

L. B. Watson of this city,
through his attorney, J. R.
Strother, has filed a suit in the
district court sitting at Galena,
asking the city of Baxter Springs
and City Clerk Geo. Conner, Mar
shall Henry Horton and Police
Judge English to pay him SIS, 900
damages, the allegation in his
petition being that he was false
ly imprisoned. 1t seems that
Watson was arrested last winter
on a complaint sworn to by the
city clerk. The complaint al
legged that Watson refused to pay
his occupation tax. Upon trial
in the police court Watson was
found guilty and it was the judg-
ment of the court that Watson
be placed in the city prison until
ne paid the fine and costs. This
was refused for a time, but final
ly a settlement was made and
Watson was released. Hence the
suit. 1t is supposed the case will
come up for hearing in the dis
trict court in September.

Webb city VS.. Baxter SUM-
day.

One of the very best ball gaines
of the season is scheduled to be
played at Ervin's park, Baxter
Springs, next Sunday afternoon,
game to be called at 2:30 o'clock.
The game will be between the
Webb City and Baxter Springs
teams, and it will be a good one.
Webb City played Miami last
Sunday and beat them 6 to 0, so
it will be observed that Baxter
Springs is going up against a
hard bunch. The Baxter team
has been strengthened, however,
so will put up a hard fight.
Smoky Moffet, who won a game
for Baxter last Sunday, will pitch
next Sunday. Paul Haskell will
also be here to play his old. posi-
ton in left field.
Be on hand. You will see. a
fine game. 3"
