After Writing Three Letters At His Room

After whiting three letters Sun
day night at midnight Frank
Huxtable of this city took NOR
phine and died at his room in the
north side CT .he square between
$50 and 6:40 Monday afternoon.
HuXtable's wife left him about
three years ago and she secured
a divorce about two years ago.
de had been trying of late to Sc.
cure a reconciliation. 1t seems
that his efforts had been partial.
ly successful, and things had
been going nicely until he
went down to Ravenna about
a week ago and got into trouble.
He was up to see his former wife
at J. w. Scott's residence Sunday
evening. They were sitting on
the couch together talking aud
he suggested that they go to
church. She replied that she
was not feeling very well and did
not think that she cared TO go
A little later she changed her
mind and said that she believed
she would like to go. He replied,
do you think that ! would go to
church with you?" After a little
he got up, told her that he want.
ed to bid ber good bye forever
and went out, His leaving in
this manner was taken TO mea
that he intended 10 do anything
rash.
Huxtabie called Nj. Chadd,
who rooms in the building, at
IL =. N. and asked him 20 call
her aud one Of Mr.. Scott's BOYS
and tell them to come down in
the morning. Mr.. Chadd was
awake at 2 a. m, and heard him
snoring loudly but thought moth
ing Of it as he always snored
when asleep. Mr.. Chadd got up
at i've o'clock prepared and ate
his breakfast and then raped on
HHXtable's door as he went down
stairs. He got noreply and call.

ued 20 srorc,
Mr., Chadd went down and tele-
phoned his message aud after
doing hi7 morning work at the
cream station went back up to
call Huxtable and tell him TO get
ready for Mrs. Huxtable to come
down. HuXtablc was still snor.

The same prophets who pre-
dict Mr.. Taylor's Inability to win
admit his strength up to GER
tain point but insist that he has
not struck Il winning gait and
that in the end he will have to
help to grease some other fellows

slice Of the important "com nit

he chooses 10 do so though he

MAY PUT IN ELECTRIC LIGHTS.
Colorado Man Here Looking Over The
City And Is Fav0rably Impressed.

Manager Sell of the Sterling,
Colorado, Electric Light Com
pany was in the city | st Satura
day looking the city over and
talking with the business men
about putting in an electric light
plant Mr.. Sell was favorably
impressed with city and thought
the opportunity for an electric
company good, Some of the
business men met with him at Ed
Houses office Saturday night to
talk over the matter. He made
them proposition to put in an
electric light plant and cousoli-
date it with the present gas COM
pany. He was willing to take a
majority or minority of the
stock Of the company if some of
the local business men would
take the rest. 1t was suggested
and he agreed to draft an ordi-
nance for a franchise under which
he would be willing to put in the
plant and this when it is receiv-
ed will be taken up by the city
council.
o. J. Shaw, manager of the
Aurora Electric Light Company,
has also been figuring little on
the prospects for plant here and
1t is expected that he will be in
the city in the course of the next
two weeks to take the matter up
with the business men aud the
city council.

MEN COMMENCE TO LOOK FOR OFFICE
CHAIRS IN COURT HOUSE.
MOST OF THEM REPUBLICANS
Candidates For County Superintendent
Numerous, The Republicans Desire a
Ticket Which viii Represent
The County AS a Whole.

There has been considerable
political gossip in the city in the
last two weeks. Most of it so far
has been in the Republican camp.
Several men have made known TO
their friends their desire TO serve
the people and the lineup for
the county Offices is beginning,
Joseph Pigman, the present
county clerk, has made it known
that he believes in the principal
OF two stIlkes and out and w. II
Osbourn, Jr., his popular deputy
is regarded as the logical candi-
date for his shoes. Sheriff Ken.
nedy has served two years and is
considered a winning candidate
for renomiuation. 1t is intimat-
ed that II. Rodgers of Mason
City, may also be canadate for
the position OF sheriff. No cam
didates have announced them
selves for the treasurership
though w. B. Poor OF Broken
Bow and Julias Ottun of Sargent
have been mentioned as good
material. ]. T. Wood of the re-
corders office who has served four
years as recorder and three
years as deputy is in a receptive
mood but may not be candidate.
Judge Hum phrey says that he
does not want to preside over the
county court for another two
years but his friends may induce
him to be candidate. ]. B.
Dunn of Galloway is mentioned
as possible candidate and N. D.
Ford, of Ansleyis quite frequent.
ly spoken of in connection with
this Office.
The County Superintendents
Office doesn't seem TO be chasing
anybody around trying to find
some one willing to take il.
Supt. J. M. McIndoo o. the city
schools and Professor Avalo Var
nice of Custer College seem will
ing to sit in the Office chair if
given an opportunity. w. w.
Waters OF Westerville, Garland
Lewis of Anselmo are also
mentioned as possible candi-
dates. Some of Supt Pluckney's
friends would like to see him be
candidate for the third term.
The Broken Bow people show
no inclination TO want to"hog
all of the Off ces" here and would
like to see a ticket nominated
which would represent the county
as a whole.
Democratic candidates have
not began to appear yet, but it is
expected that they will not be
lacking when the time for the
premium roles around.
