MYSTERIOUS STRANGER.
Only One Man Saw the Winfield Gas
Company Robber.

Winfield. Nov 25.-The mysterious
stranger who held up the gas office
Saturday noon has not been found, but
one man other than his victim remem-
bers seeing the robber. E. w. Stoner,
of Jeff Coulter's shop, recalls seeing a
man answering the description of the
desperate entering the gas office just
before the robbery is said to have taken
place. Mr.. Stoner was hurrying back
from his dinner and just as he came
upon the walk at Loomis and Ninth,
saw this man about in front of the east
door of the pool hall, next door to the
gas office. AS the stranger came in
front of the gas office he paused an in
slant, glanced in at the door. and
turned and entered. Mr.. Stoner did not
notice the man particularly, the pause
or hesitation being all that attracted
his eyes to him. When he read the
description in the Courier it recalled
the incident to his mind.

Washington, Nov 25.-With military
pomp and splendor a heroic statue of
General Philip Henry Sheridan was un-
yelled in this city today. The president
of the United States and members of
the cabinet. the diplomatic corps. JUS
tees OF the supreme court of the
United States, senators, representa-
yves IN congress, veterans of the civil
war and many others prominent in of
nclal life as well as a large cOncourSe
of citizens were present. Thousands of
soldiers of the regular army and of the
national guard and United States ma
rines and bluejackets from the navy
were assembled as a tribute to the
daShing soldier of the civil war whose
effigy was displayed t0 the public gaze
for the first time in this city today
The statue, the work of Gutzom
Borglum, was admired by everyone
who saw 1t. 1t represents General
Sheridan on horseback, his steed being
shown in position of action rather
than standing placi11y as is the case
with so many of the equestrian statues
of this city.
The statue is one and three-quarters
times larger than life and depicts Gen
eral Sheridan at the age at which he
performed his greatest deeds. The pose
is taken from the occasion when he
returned to the field at the Battle of
Cedar Creek. He had been defeated by
General Early and as he reins in his
in hand and shouts to them to turn
back. He is mounted on his celebrated
horse Rienzi.
The sum of $4,000 was appropriated
by congress for the statue which is
said to contain more molten brass than
ever before cast in this country. The
piece is IL feet long, feet wide and as

doubt about the nature of the dis
ease, DR.. Hurst should have report
ed the same.
The trial of the case was in prog
ress nearly all of last week and at
tracted much attention.
The sentiment in the lower valley
was about evenly divided regarding
the merits of the prosecution.
1t is not certain whether DR.. Hurst
will take the case to still higher
court.

walk. He realized THAI he mad been
slugged and robbed of his watch and
some money. but the holdups failed
to get about $17 in currency which
