Foreman Of Rio Grande Dis.
covers Spikes Withdrawn
and Ties Across Rails
DESPERATE IS CAUGHT

Cisco, Utah, Apr. 16,-1t has
just been learned that an attempt
was made to wreck Denver & Rio
Grande train No. 2 at point
west of Cisco Monday night.
Section Foreman Kelly, at the
White House blind siding I miles
west of Cisco, was on his way to
this place to secure supplies when
he discovered that several spikes
had been drawn from the rails
near a bridge on a curve one mile
west Of Cisco.
After replacing the spikes, he
proceeded short distance fur
ther and found several ties on
the track. They We're removed
and search was made revealing
man in hiding close by, who
was under the influence Of liquor.
Kelly took the man into Gus
tody and came on to Cisco where
he notified the railway authori-
ties.
The man was taken back to
White House until Detective
Burge of the Rio Grande arrived
and took him in charge.
A confession was obtained
from the young man to the effect
that he did the work of placing
the ties on the track and pulling
the spikes from the rails; but he
attributed the cause to his having
been under the influence of strong
drink. The man would not give
his name.
Had not Section Foreman Kelly
happened along when he did
there is hardly one chance in a
thousand that frightful wreck
would have been averted, as the
pont selected was an ideal one
from train wrecller's point OF
view. Train No. . was due three
hours after the distractions were
discovered, ad as it was the first
train that would have reached
this point, it is almost certain
that she would have gone into the
ditch.

POST REPRESENTATIVE VISITS THE DOLL RANCH

mentioning some of the fine bulls
that top the herd:
Tempter (75,142) sire, Beau
Brummel, Jr.
Lord Britton (s5, ,146); sire,
Grave Brtton.
Raven 125,1lS7; sire, Ran
dolph Ramona.
Pike s Peak; sire, Beau Donald.
Arch Brummel (219,OS5); sire,
Grave Brummel-Adelaide Archi-
bald.
These splendid bulls are used
with a herd of beautiful register
ed Hereford cows, and in going
through the barns and seeing the
many fine specimens of registered
whitefaces, one is tempted to des-
ignate the Doll ranch as the west
ern home of the Hereford In
studying the herd books we find
that Doll Bros. herd comes from
the very best blood of Europe
and America.
Next we came to the pens con-
tanning some fine Shropshire
sheep headed by number of reg
istered bucks. The Shropshires
are considered the best mutton
breed and also yield a fine fleece
and we have seen no better flock
in the West than that found on
the Doll ranch.
We cannot forget the swine, for
on this ranch we were shown a
very fine lot. Here they have
some registered Berkshire and Po-
land China and they also get
very practical animal by crossing
these two popular breeds. They
have a carload of this stock now
ready for shipment to the market.
They also have a number of the
popular red hog and fine lot of
pigs of this variety now ready for
sale. In addition to these they
are experimenting with cross
between the Durocs and the Berk-
shires and Poland Chinas. and
are getting some very fine speci-
mems.

FEDERATE OFFICER PASSES
AWAY, AT AGE OF 76.

Muskogee, Okla, oct 26.-Captain
w. NJ. Gentry died at his home
near Council Hin today at the age
of 76 years. He was one Of the most
interesting personalities in the Creek
nation. A Catawba Indian by blood,
he came TO Indian Territory long
before the civil war. He was one
of five persons not of Creek blood
who were adopted by the Creek
tribe. His adoption was by a spe-
cial act of the tribal council and
at the time of his death and for
many years prior, he had been a
member of the Creek council.
He served with distinction as
captain in the Confederate army and
when he died was the brigadier gen.
eral of the Creek and Seminole
brigade of veterans. He was 32nd
degree Mason, an ardent Odd Fell
low, and gave his entire allotment
of 160 acres TO the |. o. o. f.
home for orphans and widows or
odd Fellows at Checotah, in order
to have the institution built. Like
many other Indians he made a fail
ure of the mercantile business In
later years, because of lack of I'M
derstanding of modern business
methods.
During the old Indians trading
days he was quite wealthy.

The first time in history that the
British public ever asked parliament
for laws to protect women and child
rem was in the year 1900, after an
epidemic of fever among the under

which parliament accorded was to
restrict the hours of labor for child
rem to twelve, and to set the age at
nine years, when child might be
employed This action was the real
beginning of organized protest on the
