A Familiar Warning.

Mrs. Jones favorite warning to
her young progeny when they were
in mischief was that she would tend
to them in a minute. Tending
was accomplished by applying her
open hand where it would do the
most good. When Harry was four
years old he was sent for the first
time around the corner to the
grocery. In few minutes he came
trotting soberly back with the
nickel still in his hand, but no bag
OF onions.
Whats the matter?" asked mis-
mother.
I'm afraid of the man." he said,
solemnly.
"oh, he won't hurt you" re-
assured Mrs. Jones. Run along
and bring the onions, I'm in a hurry
for them"
A second time Harry disappeared
round the corner, and a second
time returned without his pur-
chase.
I'm afraid of the grocer man.
he explained, as before.
We'll, what makes you afraid of
him?" demanded his mother, i'm
patiently.

low, "bofe times when l COED in

Statement of Geiger

We learn from DR.. G. E. Scrutch-
field that he was able to get the
following statement from Godfrey
Geiger the surviving one of the
boys so seriously injured and
picked up more than week ago
near the Mo. Pacific tracks in an
unconscious condition. The boy
says that he and his cousin Carl
Keubli had paid their way from
Nina, Dakota, where they had
been at work, to Kansas City, but
decided to beat their way from
there to their respective homes in
the eastern part of the state. They
got into freight car filled with
lard cans and other freight, and
were not discovered until they
reached the Y east of this city
A brakeman came into the car
and told them they would have to
pay their way or get off. The
two boys decided TO do the latter
and when off, concluded to walk
on the track to the next station
and later try to board another
train going east. They would
walk short distance then sit
down on the end of the ties and
rest awhile and walk again, this
they did several times, the last
time Geiger says they We're both

sleepy and tired and Keubli Wzs
soon asleep. Hc says he does mot
remember whether he went to sIeeP
or not but does not remember any
thing that happened from tine
time they were sitting on the lies
until he regained consciousness ut
the undertakers rooms in TINS
city. DR.. Scrutchfield says when
he found the boys they were thirty
feet apart, Keubl, the one tExst
died was ON the right side OF the
track and Geiger on the left He
thinks the first west bound
freight that came along mt
Keubi and knocked him the thr<~
fest this way from where he wrs
sitting and that Geiger was hst
with less force and fell near. To
where he was ON the left side of
the track. The Doctor says Gaz-
gers statement was that KeuhzI
was walking on the right side OF
the track while he was on the Ieft,
and this agrees with the posibsn
of the boys when found. The stxte-
ment relieves the railroad from the
blame or responsibility in the mat
ter. Geiger's father who has been
with him took him to his home ka

Thirty-five years ago. says senor

and won by a dashing young cabel-
Zero whose name he does not know.
The name Of the maiden was Carmen

Cupid found the way. however, and
the love affair eliminated in an
elopement. the best friend of the
lover accompanying the couple on a

Senior Lubert's father had a store to
the south of what is now Douglas and
in his stock had some Sharp rifles Of
the type Of the one found. He was
the only one I'm the vicinity who had
any Of these. To him the party
came and the young bridegroom pur-
chased one of these guns. paving for
it with two gold coins which he took
from d well filed money belt. Then
the party started for Guaymas.
The day following the purchase of
the gun the irate father appeared in
hot pursuit of his fleeing daughter
and her lover. Ascertai ming the
