JIM FIKE WHEAT RAISER.
Former Democratic Leader Now Has
a Greater Distinction.

Colby, Sept. 19.-Fike & Haynes of
Colby, the big wheat raisers of Kan
sas, are getting their names in the
eastern publications. Golfers Weekly
recently gave these wheat kings a
big boost because they harvested 49,
600 acres of wheat this year. and all
of it was grown in Thomas county.
Probably no other enterprise has given
the county so extensive advertising as
has this wheat firm. Jim F'ike, one
of the firm, was a printer boy and
ed in Thomas county, the Colby Free
Press. This gave him prestige, and
later he landed a good political job,
a member of the state board of rail-
road commissioners. With this honor
heaped upon his newspaper record for
good measure he branched out farther
and wanted to be the wheat raising
king of Kansas. Every year he has
been increasing the acreage, and this
year they will not let up until they
have put in $4,000 acres. and then
some. The title of wheat king has
come to them honorably. The splen-
did write-ups they are getting in east
ern publications are justly deserved.
They are doing their share in killing
out the buffalo grass in Thomas coun-
When Jim Fike gets through raising
wheat he can easily reach the United
States senate or a higher office. Dur
ing a little dry squirt now and then
they have in this section, Jim Fike
never worried, but was confident his
wheat would come out all right. And
the several years he has been raising
wheat in Thomas county has turned
out good substantial investment.

Geo. Slower, Young Kansas
Farmer, Loses His Bride.
Verne Clark, a NeighbOr, Takes
Her Away in Buggy.
ON ROAD TO FAR IVES T
Believed That They Are Now
in California.
Warrant Is Sworn Out for the
Recreant Couple.

Ottawa, Kan, Sept 19-Verne
Clark carried away the wife of George
Slower. A warrant has been issued for
Clark charging him with the aliena-
ton of Mrs. Stover's affections but it
has not been served because Clark has
gone, taking Mrs. Slower with him.
Clark eloped with Mrs. Slower early
yesterday morning and took a train
from this city after 15-mile drive to
Ottawa from the Slower farm at the
northwest corner of Franklin county.
Slower is a young farmer. He mar
ried two years ago Miss Fisher, daugh-
ter of Walter Fisher. of the Michigan
Valley neighborhood. The parents of
both the husband and wife are own
ers of fine farms. Across the line in
Douglas county lives Thomas Clark
and his sons. One of them is Verne,
for whom the warrant was issued.
While Slower was at the house of a
neighbor Thursday night his wife, who
had been admired for many months by
the young Douglas county man, locked
the doors of hr home and fled with
Clark in his buggy. When the husband
found his house empty upon returning,
he Immediately telephoned to his
wife's brothers, two of whom had en-
tertained a growing dislike for Clark.
The dislike kept growing as the farm
ers spent more hours searching for the
runaways.
Rural telephone lines spat sparks of
scandal and one-sided sympathy with
occasional clews which in every case
proved faulty. The neighborhood
turned over the recent events and
chance conversations regarding the two
absent residents until 1t was learned
that there had been talk of Clark's go
ing to California. Messages were sent
to all surrounding towns.
It was not until Slower and his elop-
ing wife's irate brothers came to OF
taWa that they received any definite in
formation of their going. Clark's
blooded driving horse was found in a
livery barn here. The owner of the
barn said the horse was driven into
the barn by a young man and a wom-
an at o'clock Friday morning and
left without further information or di-
rections. A couple answering their
description boarded a train early the
next morning for Kansas City.
When 1t became known that Clark
had plenty of money with him when
he left home, the relatives of both
decided that the couple had gone on
from Kansas City to California on
carefully planned honeymoon The
brothers of the missing bride have
sworn vengeance upon the man who
left the community with their sister
The Stovers have lived an apparent
ly happy married life until now. They
have no children.
