GO ON A RAMPAGE
Negroes Sought for Disturbance, Are
Charged With BOOtIegging.

A might of it, ended rather harshly
for Walter Penny a midget porter,
and Oscar Reynolds. two negroes, who
were entertaining two white BARRIERS,
when police officers took them to the
city prison at 4:35 o'clock this morn
ing, and charged them with robbery
from the person and bootlegging
whisky.
The quartette had a single livery
rig, a good deal of liquor and very
little concern when they drove over
into the sand dunes of west North To-
peka to celebrate. Penny Harmon
had a large size revolver, which he
fired at intervals to keep up their
courage. and they came home in splen-
did spirits.
Then they began to get into trouble.
One of the BARRIERS, whose name is said
to be Faulkner, and his residence on
East Ninth street, refused to pay any
thing on the livery hire. so the negroes
took 95 cents and pint of whisky away
from him Then the police heard of
the trouble and located the negroes
in the second story at 425 Kansas ave-
nue.
Sergeant Sauls with officers Haney,
Walker and Nash made the haul and
found that the blacks, after getting
into their room. had set the bed on
fire and thoroughly soused the room in
putting out the blaze
They looked around and found a
few more bottles of whisky and
learned that Penny was porter TOT the
barber shop of Edwin n. Salley. just
below They hurriedly searched the
shop. but found no more evidence
This morning, however, about 10
O'Clock, Sergeant Carbon and Detective
Voiles instituted a further search and
in the dirt floor basement found an
old suit case, half buried. with seven
half-pint bottles of whisky remaining
in it. With the aid of a searchlight.
they located a hole where a barrel of
beer had been cooled and empty bot
ties, filters empty cases, packing and !
the like. but they could find no more
liquor.

Club Banquet.

At the second annual banquet of the
Civic club at Lukens' opera house last
night, Senator Charles Curtis promised
his support to bill for new federal
building in the First ward. He said
that the matter depended Upon whether
or not an omnibus public building bill
would be passed by congress next ses-
sion and upon the showing the North
side made, but as to the last the
business of the Office legally justified a
new building. He also urged that peo-
ple send representatives to the state
legislature who were in favor of ap-
preparations for good roads, to be made
by convict labor.

girl who struggled for position in vain
who appealed to the good men and wo-
men of North Topeka.
This part of Topeka seems often to
be the scene of some contest. I remeTn
Der when no crowd would come to hear
a candidate for the legislature unless
ne favored North Topeka's seeding
from the South side. But that is all
passed and am glad OF it.
The new federal building for the
First ward ill depend upon two things:
that a public building bill is passed
and that the business at station A
justif1es it As to the first: as / am
on the appropriation committee there
will be trouble if a pEolic building bill

given by A. z. Robinson, postmaster
at station "A" show that the business
legally calls for a new building
And it will not be necessary to send

the new building as I will act as your

Gone to Black Mountain.

Mr.. F. NJ. Simmons left Monday
for Black Mountain, N. c., where he
will live in the future. His many
friends in Bamberg regret to lose
him as a citizen, but their best wish
es attend him. Mr.. Simmons was a
prominent business man of the city,
and was a member of the board Of
trustees of the Bamberg graded
school and a member of the board
of stewards of Trinity Methodist
church. He is that type of citizen
ship which town and community
can i'll afford to lose, and it is hoped
by everybody here that his health
will soon be fully restored. He will
go to Baltimore for an operation
next week, and DR.. J. J. Cleckley, of
this city, his physician, will accom-
pany him.

Shot Through Window.

Gaffney, Jan. 31.-A young white
man, Tom Bright, was shot and Sc
riously wounded by a Mrs. Bowlin
at her home in this city Sunday
night. The weapon used was a Win
chester rifle and the bullet was fred
through the door. It took effect in
Bright's hip and the wound is ex-
tremely painful and may result Ia
tally. From Bright's account he was
to meet another man at the home Of
Mrs. Bowlin. A short time after
dark Sunday evening he went to the
home of the woman and inquired II
his friend was there. The woman
replied that he was not and then
asked who was there. He told her
his name when she at once began to
curse him and fired through the door.
The woman's side of the case has
not been heard. AS yet no legal ac-
ton has been taken but the injured
man states that he will take steps
at once to have her arrested and
punished.
