MODERN WOODMEN MEET
WITH DISTINGUISHED GUESTS

Roswell Camp of the Modern Wood
ment of America took night off last
night and celebrated almost from sun
to sun. The occasion of the big time
was the visit of Hon. A. n. Bort, of
Beliot, Wis, chairman of the Supreme
Board of Directors, and Hon. Tru-
man Plantz, OF Warsaw, Ind, head at
torney for the order, who had arriv-
ed the evening before to spend twen-
ty-four hours with the local member
ship, to investigate local Modern
Woodmen conditions and arouse in
tereSt in the order.
Thursdays sand storm interfered
seriously with the plans of entertain
ment for the distinguished visitors, as
it prevented the auto trips and other
amusements that had been arranged.
BUT when night came and the wind
subsided the lost time was made up,
and more.
The evenings pleasure was started
with public meeting at the Me-
thodist church, South, presided over
by District Deputy D. P. Greiner. A
splendid program was carried out, the
best of music having been furnished
by the Norvell orchestra, and Mrs.
Stella P Ritter singing Dudley Bucks
great composition, when the Heart
is Young the principal Speakers Of
the evening were the two guests CT
honor, who told all about the Modern
Woodmen of America as lodge and
as a benefit society. They describ-
ed it as the greatest insurance order
in the world. thoroughly American
institution with camps only within
the borders of the United States, with
membership of one million, forty
thousand and has paid out seventy
three million dollars in insurance.
They stated also that this order has
the nearest perfect type OF represen-
tative government of all the secret or
ders of the world. The addresses
| were given in an interesting manner
and we've awarded the closest atten-
ton.
Following the entertainment at the
church, a sumptuous feast was served
| at The Gilkeson, at which the Norve0
| orchestra furnished sweet music as

GOV. kIBBEY
IN TROUBLE

Phoenix, Ariz, Jan. 29.-Reports of
alleged charges filed in Washington
against Governor Kibbey of Arizona,
whose nomination for reappoint1nent
is now before the senate for confirma-
ton, were confirmed today when the
nature of at least one charge became
known. 1t is that while judge of Pin
al county about twenty years ago, Kib
bey changed court records. No denial
of the act is made, but an explanation
is offered. 1t is explained that Francis
]. Heney, the graft and bribery pros
ecutor of San Francisco, then a young
lawyer, was defending man before
Kibbey. Judge Kibbey lectured him
for alleged misconduct before the jul
ry. Later, concluding Heney's conduct
Kibbey expunged the record with his
own hand without making an open
court order to that effect. 1t is this
erasure which, it is stated, Kibbey's
opponents have brought to the atten-
ton of the senate.

MI. Plants responded to the toast,

ROBBERS TAKE $4,000
FROM TEXAS BANK

Ell Paso, Jan. 29.-The vault of the
Carlton State Bank at Carlton, Tex
as, was blown open with dynamite
by robbers last night who escaped af-
ter taking all the money in sight. 1t
is reported they got away with ten
thousand dollars.
The vault was drilled into and the
big safe inside blown open. The mon
ey taken was all in currency. The
robbers were evidently men of exper-
ience as they left no clue and worked
without rousing anyone. The first in
formation the residents of the town
had of the affair was when the wreck
age of a portion of the front end of
the bank building was noticed this
morning The authorities all over the
state have been wired to be on the
outlook for the robbers. 1t is believed
the Carlton robbery is the work of an
organized gang that has been operat-
ing in the small towns of Texas dur
ing the past two months, in which
time nearly score of robberies have
occurred.

BIG DEAL BY
SLAUGHTER

Ell Paso, Tex, Jan. 29.-Probably
the largest land deal ever made in
Texas was closed at Big Springs to-
day. A Waterloo, Iowa, company pur-
chased 10000 acres of the ranch be
longing to C. C. Slaughter, which is
located in Howard, Martin, Dawson
and Borden counties, at price OF
three million dollars. Only the land
and improv ements were transferred,
Col. Slaughter retaining possession
of forty thousand head of cattle graz
ing thereon. A year ago the same
company purchased from Mr.. Slaugh-
ter over a hundred thousand acres
in Hale and Lamb counties. The
land will be used for colonization
purposes.
