Fred Henderson died this morning

good wages. One evening IN q frolic
he mounted cowboys horse, lie
was no hurseman and the horse
while gentle enough for cowboy.
WAS moro Than Henderson could

and was gent 10 the hospital ~ santa

day disappeared. The authorities
searched Tor him without any result
Later he appeared on the train

He disappeared for five dnys. turn

was discovered that he was mentally
unbalanced and the authorities were
notified. Dcputy Tom Moore went
down and got him Asked where he
had been DURING the five DAYS. he
said he had been down ON the river

there. IN one Of his apparently RAJ

ELECTRIC LIGHTS ON FARMS
Morning Chores Are Done In Kansas
by the Aid Of EIectrIolty-An
Up-to-Date Sod House.

Within ten years electricity will
light a majority of the farm homes
and country schools and churches Of
Kansis, it is predicted Farm homes
lighted with electricity are now num-
bered by hundreds.
With the general use of the gaso-
line engine this has been made pos
sible. Electric light and power COM
panies in several of the cities are also
making plans by which they can sup
ply farmers with current from their
trunk lines.
A notable case of this sort is found
at Manhattan. where the power for
electric generation is furnished by a
dam on the Big Blue river, four miles
from the city.
The current generated is used for
electric lighting and street car pur-
poses in the city of Manhattan, and
farmers living near the trunk line are
using 1t in their residences, barns and
feed lots. In the early morning hours,
when the farmers feed and care for
their stock and do the milking, cleo
tric lights are found to be very useful.
In a rich farming community ten
miles north OF Atchison the farmers
have decided to have an electric light
plant OF their own. They will build a
