they were, and without asking the
price of the seats, told the box-of-
fee man that he wanted a tip-top
seat. and laid a five dollar bill down.
The box-offce man laid the ticket
down and three dollars in change.
The farmer accustomed to twenty

When Ned, the eldest son came on,
To Art he turned his mind,
So went abroad to B~arbizon,

Five years in Paris he remained,
Tho Pa sometimes protested
But, then, as he.to Pa explained,

Sam was the next in order, he
On Lit'rature decided,
So studied for his Phi. D.,
To start out well provided.
Then travelled for a year or two
Thro' all of Europe's quarters
AS Sam explained to Pa anew,
Twas bread upon the waters.
Alonzo followed Sam, but turned
His ear to Music's voice,
He felt that genius in him burned,
He was Apollos choice,
So, like his brothers, forth he Jared
His soul in travel STEPPING
Assuring Pa when he got scared,
Twas seed for future reaping.
Now, last of all came little Jim,
A simple lad and plain;
No god had sat his seal on him,
His was no mighty brain.
Pas money, too, had all been spent
Twigs grow as fortune bends them.

NORDMARK GUILTY
Jury Finds That He Killed the
Lindahl Family.
Second Degree Murder Which
Carries 10 Year Imprisonment.

Guilty
Charles Nordnark killed the Lindahl
family.
I'VE, the jury, find the defendant
guilty of murder in the second de-
gree"
This was the verdict returned by the
L. tryers of the aged hermit who has
been on trial at Beileville charged with
the murder of Alex Lindahl and his two
children,
The penalty for second degree muir
der is not less than 10 years in prison.
The jury reported at 1:30 this after
noon after being out 90 hours. After
the verdict was read, Attorneys Richie
and Nordmark, who are defending
Nordmark, entered a motion for new
trial and arrest of judgment. which viii
be heard within the next few days, by
the court.
The agreement reached by the jury
was a compromise. On the first ballot
nine of the men voted for first degree
murder while three favored Nordmark.
These three men hung out for 20 hours
despite the protests of the other nine,
and succeeded in bringing about re-
duction in the grade of offense.
The verdict is somewhat of sur
prise. Nordmark can never again be
tried fo- first degree murder and there
is chance for him to either get new
trial or have the case reversed in the
supreme court.
The hermit received the finding of
the jury scoldly. He was unconcerned.

WAGsTAFF In FORD.
Candidate Has an Enthusiastic Re-
ception There.

Word received at the Wagstaff
headquarters today from Dodge City
is to the effect that Tom Wagstaff was
given an ovation in Ford county. He
spoke there at night to a large audi
ence in the opera house. Lieutenant
Governor Fitzgerald opened the night
meeting with a short talk to his fell
low townsmen. Delegations were pres
ent from Meade, Edwards and Gray
counties and a band furnished music
for the night meeting.
In the afternoon Wagstan spoke at
the Soldiers home and was we'll re-
ceived by the veterans. 1t is said that
the old soldiers at Hutchinson en-
campment stood three to one for Wag-
staff and the ovation from the veterans
at Dodge would seem to bear out the
Hutchinson endorsement.
