There was piano music and songs by
a quartet that brought down the
house time and again. Perry Reigle-
man gave some of his inimitable rec
itations. Alderman Greenbaum gave
an address on the strong points of
the Foresters as benefit order. Wal
ter Dover entertained the large audi
ence with character sketches in
costume, and renditions on the zith-
er and musical glasses. Col. Hofer
was on the program for jolly and
good fellowship talk, to convince all
that George Washington and Abra-
ham Lincoln were Foresters. Junius
OConner, the strong man on For
estry, had the floor long enough to
convince all that there is no order
equal to Foresters for benefits and
economy. He showed it was not a
life insurance order, but when man
needed help it was there with the
goods. 1t has over three millions in

ONE BAD MAN IS CAUGHT.
Negro Who Was With Tom Hale Ar
rested Last Night.

A short, stocky negro who was sup
posed to be assisting Tom Hale escape
the Shawnee officers, was arrested last
night southeast of Overlook by
Deputy Sheriffs Judkins and Anderson
who had given chase in an automobile.
The negro gave the name of Ed Fields
and admitted he had been in jails and
penitentiaries in five states and ~
cities. Complaint was filed against
him in the court of Topeka this morn
ing, charging him with carrying a re-
volver.
The officers thought he could give
some information as to the where
abouts of Hale, the Tennessee speci-
men who shot a leg almost off George
DeMoss last Sunday at a crap game.
The capture of the man was made
when he took to the highway after
travelling some 25 miles round about
through fields and along streams His
explanation for travelling across coun-
try is that the officers seem forever TO
be looking for him. Riding up behind
him in an auto was a safe approach
and Judkins leve1ed a rifle at him as
he turned. The negro had his hand
over his breast as he turned his head.
He had no time to do aught but throw
up his hands. Search found a long Al
caliber revolver in the breast pocket of
his coat.

Colonel Says He Will Go Home and

Rochester, N. Y, Oct. 29.-Six pep
perry speeches, two apiece for Rome,
Lyons and Rochester, made up ex-
President Roosevelt's days work for
the Republican state ticket Friday. He
kept up his attacks on the Democratic
party, Tammany hall and John A. Dix,
Democratic nominee for governor. He
confined himself to the arguments
which he has been making on his trip
through the state, developing no new
lines of attack.
The colonel referred once more. at
Lyons. to what Job Hedges, of New
York. calls this king business in
his campaign speeches. He said that
he was not the issue; that it was Mr..
Stimson and not he, who was running
for office.

continued. After election day I'll

bers, consisted of Otis E. Hungate, w.
R. Hazen, L. S. Ferry, D. c. Tillotson
ing summary of their tribute contains
a pointed description of the man and
his character, as follows:
He was strictly honest. He did not
have the best paying practice at the
bar: he didn't always represent the
best class of clients; he was trif1e
rough in his dress and manner, but
there never was and is not now a
member of this bar whose word to the
court or a brother lawyer is more sa-
cred. If he told you he would do a
thing and the time came to do 1t,
whatever the consequences, he never
went back on his word and he ex-
pected his brother lawyer to treat him
in the same way, and if he did not,
Joe never kept the matter a secret.
He was never technical in constituting
his promise, but carried it out in the
spirit in which it was meant and in
which he gave it. AS he was honest
himself, he despised all shams, and
openly reviled the people he consid-
cred hypocrites and pretenders. He
often referred to the lawyers as bar
risters-and his estimation Of their
ability was expressed by the syllable
upon which he placed the emphasis.
He was a good friend and an open,
courageous enemy. He never forgot a
favor or forgave a slight. Warm
hearted and able, big in body and
jovial in disposition, he lived the life
he pleased and to him. we believe,
came the kind of death he desired.
His bulky figure and hearty laugh will
be greatly missed at this bar. and long
remembered by the lawyers who knew,
enjoyed and respected him."

How much richer a memorial to
