B. F. Mitchell and wife departed
last week for Wichita to reside
permanently. Mr.. Mitchell is work
ing in an automobile garage in that
city and will probably continue
to do so indefinitely.
Before Mrs. Mitchell's departure,
ON Tuesday of last week, a fare
well party was given her by the
Rebekah lodge and the Willing
Workers of the Christian church,
at the home of Mesdames Axtell
and Gallagher one mile east of
town. Mrs. Mitchell has been one
of the most active and earnest
members of both organizations
and in token of the friendship and
fraternal love that her co.workers
felt for her, she was presented with
beautiful piece of china.
Light refreshments were served
and all spent a most pleasant
afternoon.

Dug up Cedar Trees

A few weeks ago some parties
entered ]. T. Whites farm a few
miles southwest of town, in his
absence, and dug up and took
away lot of cedar trees. The
parties who did this probably do
not realize it, but it is nevertheless
true that this act is theft in the
same sense as though they had TAX
en- anything else off of Mr.. Whites
premises, and if their identity were
known, they would be subject
to punishment for larceny and
trespass.
Mr.. White was very indignant
when he found that his trees had
been taken and he says that he is
keeping a close watch and the first
party or parties caught digging up
or carrying away any of his trees
will be prosecuted.

Our Fourth Anniversary

On Thursday, April 28th, will
close the fourth year of our busi-
ness in Medicine Lodge and, look
ing back over the volume of bust
ness done during that time, it is
due our customers and friends that
an acknowledgment be made of the
appreciation that we feel for the
liberal patronage received and the
many courtesies extended. Words
alone are not sufficient to express
this appreciation and while we do
most heartily thank one and all
for their patronage, as a further
acknowledgment, we will sell II
pieces of china at a cost of 2 25cents
each, as special anniversary fea-
ture. These pieces will consist
OF cake and bread plates, salad
dishes and water jugs. They
are strictly high class goods and
none can be purchased anywhere
for less than so cents and many
sell for one dollar. These goods
will be displayed in the show
window on Thursday but will not
be on sale until Saturday, in or
der to accommodate the country
trade.
During our residence in Medicine
Lodge we have made many last.
ing friendships and the patronage
accorded to us has been highly
satisfactory. we trusted that our
treatment of our customers as
we'll as the conduct of every
body connected with the store has
been equally satisfactory and our
aim in the future shall be to strive
to always offer the best dry goods,
clothing furnishings ETC., possible.
Yours faithfully,

is: "Hurry, now, we must be
starting back" And that takes
all the pleasure out of the trip.
With the automobile the run can
easily be made in an hour and a
half, the car can be left anywhere,
for it is neither hungry nor tired,
and it is willing to go home Just
as fast as it came. If a hurry trip
must be made the motor is soon
ready.
Gas to the purchase cost, the mo.
tor probably is more expensive,
but not so much as one might at
first suppose-if the team, harness
and carriage are of the same class,
and the carriage of the same capac-
ity as the automobile. MANY
times when the man comes home
from work he would like a little
outing, but is too tired to bother
with the horse. The automobile
is the thing to buy"

Mrs. A. M. Houchin Dead

Mary L., wife of Albert M.
Houchin, died in St. Francis Hos
pital, Wichita, Kansas, Tuesday,
April 20, 1910, at 80 a. m, after
an illness of about two months.
AS stated in former issues of this
paper, all hope for her recovery
was abandoned several weeks ago,
but her wonderful physical endur
ance and will power prolonged her
life much beyond expectations and
fondest hopes.
She was treated in the hospital
by the best medical skill of Wichi-
ia and Kansas City but at no time
did the physicians gain heacway
over the disease. Paralysis and
apoplexy superinduced by stom.
ach disorder are said to have been
the cause of death.
The body will arrive home this
afternoon but the funeral arrange
ments have not yet been made. 1t
is probable that the funeral will be
held on Friday.
Mr.. and Mrs. Houchin have been
citizens of Medicine Lodge since
the early SOS and during their
residence here Mrs. Houchin was
one of the strong leaders in church,
social and literary work. She was
woman of culture, refinement
and withal courteous, kind and
gentle. She did as much if not
more than any one person in the
organization of the Lincoln Libra
ry of this city and in creating the
library building fund and she will
be especially missed in this work.
She is survived by a husband,
mother and sister, who have the
sympathy of their friends in this
sad ordeal.
Owing to Mr.. Houchin's absence,
a complete obituary is not obtain.
able. 1t will appear later.

The Gerlane "SIuggers" again
took Old Kiowa into camp to the
tune of IS to on Sunday. The
game was marred by chill wind
from the north but that did not
destroy the vim of the players in
the least. The feature of the game
was the fielding and "stick" work
of the Gerlane team. Both sides
pitchers were hit hard but the Ger
lane team punched their hits in the
9TH and 9th innings and won out
in the long score of 13 to 2.

Medicine Lodge Loses to Kiowa

The Medicine Lodge newly or
ganized team played its first game
at Kiowa on Sunday and lost in q
score of 8 too. The decisive hit
was in the last half of the ninth
inning when Humphrey for Kiowa
struck a home run.
Those who saw the game say it
was a hummer.
The umpires were Gano of Med.

Manager Banta and the mem
bers of the team say they were

They got square deal and had a

Arm Broken

Miss Frances Mathews, the ten
yearpold daughter of Sheriff Math-
ews, had the misfortune to break
both bones of her left arm at the
merry gO-round last Wednesday
night. She jumped from the mer-
ry-go-round before it had stopped
and fell in such way as to bend
the arm back under the body.
DIR. Coleman set the arm and
Frances will soon be as sound as
she was before the accident. 1t
was very painful, however.
