A number of white men brought

the feeding and watering here, SAID
yesterday that he had l9O cars Of
cattle in the yards. Most of them
were yearling calves and the cars
average sixty head or more. The few
sheep being shipped are California
and Arizona wethers going to mar
ket. The cattle come from the dis
tricts named above, and are being
shipped to colorado and Kansas for
pasture. A few go to Nebraska. Many
OF them are so weak that it is diff
ficult to keep them on their feet. The
raisers say that the southern ranges
are bare and dry and the creeks are
strewn with weak and dying cattle.
Men are kept busy dragging them
from the bog holes.
Inc movement HoINl' III many III
stances. was begun too late and now
that the rush is on the railroads can

last night it had not been located.
The owners decided to leave the cat

Gated.

Former Audrain Man Dead.

Lon D. Clark, aged SO years, lO
months and 16 days, died at his
home in Licking, Mo, Oct. 2S,
1909. He was a native of Ten
nessee. For a long time he was a
resident of this county, making his
home at first near LaddOnia and
Martinsburg and later becoming
a citizen of Laddonia. The early
settlers down that way all re-
member Lon Clark. His father
was "Uncle" Charlie Clark, also
well remembered by the early set
tiers of this county. The Licking
News thus speaks of Mr.. Clark
L. ID. Clark moved with his
parents to Hannibal, Mo-, where
he lived for a number of years.
then moved to Audrain county,
where he was married Feb. %,
1859, to Miss Bashaba Lewis, 10
which union 7 children, 4 boys and
3 girls were born; two sons and
one daughter preceding the father
to that great beyond. His next
move was to Hutton Valley, in
Howell county, where he lived till
he came to Licking in 1904.
While we were only acquainted
with Mr.. Clark a short time, our
first impressions of him were of a
strong minded and noble charaa-
ter, one who was well read and an
interesting conversationalist; a
man who would never desert a
friend, and who always believed
in the right. Though a sufferer for
years, he bore it with a fortitude
and patience that was wonderful,
Besides a devoted wife, he
leaves two daughters and two
sons. We can only remind these
mourners that he is not dead, he
is only asleep-resting after a
long and well spent life here; ne
cannot and would not if he could
return to us; we can, if we will
go to him.

CONN GETS SENTENCE.
His Oklahoma Sweetheart Wants
to Get Him Free.

VIM. Barnett was called to st.
Louis last week where he served
as a witness in the L. S. District
Court in the case of the United
States VS.. Edward Conn, charged
with postoffice robbery and who
figured in the shooting at the
Mexico airdOme last summer.
IF | live to be 1O9 years old |
will spend every cent I make to
get Ed Conn free" dramatically
exclaimed Minnie Easley, of Sap
ulpa, Ok, Saturday night. after
Conn had been convicted by
jury in the Federal Court. He was
sentenced to serve five years each
on two counts, and was fined
$1,000. An appeal bond was fixed
at $4,000. Miss Easley, who IS
Conn's fiancee, departed for her
home, saying she would have the
bond signed and Conn released.
Conn was convicted Of compile
ity in the robbery of the Post
Office at Wellsville, Mo-, April II,
in which the spoils amounted to
81. He and three other men were
arrested.
Miss Easley is said to have fur
nished money for an attorney and
the costs in the case. She came to
st. Louis two weeks ago when
Conn was arraigned, and sat with
him in the court for the two days
he was on trial.
Testimony presented to the
court was that Conn said that he
would plead guilty and take his
sentence before Miss Easley came
to his rescue. Then he changed
his mind.
When the verdict was annOunc-
.ed Miss EaSley gave way to her
grief and sobbed violently. Final
ly recovering, she declared her in
tention of fighting the case
through the higher courts. She
claims officers of the law in Okll-
homa are prosecuting Conn.
