J.K. Codding, attorney for the State
Temperance Union. will address a union
meeting Of the churches Of this city on
next Sunday. February 2Ist. at 7:3O
P. M. in the Baptist church.
MIR. Codding is well known all over
Kansas because Of his unceasing and
successful warfare against the jointists
and saloon keepers Of Kansas. For FIVE
years, at great personal sacrifice, he has
devoted his splendid energies to the
ovel row Of the liquor Interests in our
state, and much of the credit for the
effective law enforcement campaign that
has been waged in Kansas in the last few
years has been due to his untirins effort:
and to those who have been associated
with him in the State Temperance Union
work. He has a message that appeals
to all classes. and everyone is invited to
hear him next Sunday.

Jury Disagrees in Bitter Case

The Bitter murder case was tried in
Dodge City something over a week ago
and after the jury was out about three
days it was discharged without arriving
at verdict. Eight stood for conviction
and four for acquittaH Another trial was
set for the first week in March by Judge
Finley Of that district. The case went
from Greensburg to Dodge City on ac-
count Of the feeling against the defend
ant in Kiowa county.
The case is familiar with nearly everv-
body in southern Kansas. Last spring
Mrs. Rosenberger was foully dealt with
and subsequently murdered near Belvi-
dere while returning home from trading.
Bitter was arrested shortly after the muir
der. The foot prints Of horse that was
ridden away from the scene of the crime
tailed exactly with the hoofs Of Bitter $
horse and there were other circumstances
pointing strongly to his guilt. There
were, however, no eye witnesses and this
influenced four Of the jurors in refusing to
return a verdict of guilty.
Should Bider be acquitted finally, it
would not be safe for him to return to
Kiowa county. The crime was a most
cruel one and the people best acquainted
with the facts and circumstances are con-
vinced Of Bitler's guilt.

Big FIRE At LAKE.
Livery Barn. 20 Horses and Pierce Resi-
dence Consumed. Loss SO, 500. Small
Portion Covered by Insurance..

On Tuesday Of last week when the
Index was on the press, a phone mes
sage was received stating that big FIRE
was in progress at Lake City and the
early reports were that the livery barn
and contents and Mrs. Sarah Pierce's
house were certain to be entirely destroy
ed and the Baptist church and the Metz
Lumber yard were in great danger.
Later the more encouraging news came
that the FIRE was held in check and con-
fined to the livery barn and the Pierce
residence.
With the barn. 20 head Of horses, a
number Of vehicles, harness, etc., and
1900 bushels Of corn besides hay and
other feed were burned. Mrs. Pierce
lost all her household goods in addition
to her house.
Tuesday was a very stormy day.
The wind was blowing at high speed
and it was impossible to put the FIRE out.
The FIRE originated from the remains Of
a hre used to thaw out frozen pump
pipe. A FIRE had been built at the
pump shortly before dinner and the men
who did the work went to dinner suppo:-
ing the FIRE was entirely out. The wind
famed the supposed ashes into flames
and carried FIRE into some hay and in
short time the entire barn was aAame.
When discovered it had gained such
great headway that very little property
could be gotten out.
The barn had been recently purchas-
ed by Fred Thrasher from Riley Lake.
Eight Of the horses belonged to him and
IL belonged to John keIlar Of Sun City
who was stabing them there. Mr.. KeL
lar is getting along in years and has poor
health. These horses comprised all his
eGects and the loss reduces him to abb
solute bankruptcy. 1t is also quite severe
on Mr.. Thrasher who had recently re-
moved his personal effects to Lake from
Isabel. Even part of his household goods
were stored in the barn. The corn be-
Ionged to Riley Lake.
Mrs. Pierces house was located about
SO feet east Of the barn and the wind
being from the northwest carried the
FIRE to the house as efectually as though
1t had been Immediately adjoining.
Men with buckets attempted to save her
house but were powerless. 1t required
hsrd fighting to save the church which
was considerable distance away. Mrs.
Pierce carried insurance and will re-
build.
There was also a small insurance on
the barn but the matter Of rebuilding has
not yet been decided upon.

ford. Nebraska, James Lockard, Sedg-
wick. Kansas. Also one step daughter,

Mr.. Lockard did not enlist as soldier

tionist, was one Of two men in his voting
precinct that voted for Fremont when he
ran for president. He voted for Abra-
ham Lincoln when he was elected presi-
dent. Throughout the war he was ac-
i've and did good service for his country

IN Temperance refotn.
Nfr. Lockard moved with. his family.
to Kansas in the fall Of 1868 and settled

steps. His little grandchild ran up stair:
to tell her aunt that grandpa was lying
upon the steps and would not talk to
her. His daughter hurried to the porch
but found him dead. There was no ev-
idence Of his having fallen, he seemed to
have sunk gently to the steps and passed
