SuffraRette Busy

Several weeks ago we published
the account Of the breaking up of
a religious meeting in southwest
Grant county by a ranch man
named Beasley. He was arrested
with the charge of disturbing
public worship and with assault
with intent to kill. An investiga-
ton by the county attorney found
that Che gun which Beasly took to
the meeting would not shoot, and
the latter charge was changed to
one of assault. An exciteable suf-
fragette became indignant at this
and boarding a train went to To-
peka and told Fred Dawson, the
attorney general a wild tale about
the miscarriage of justice there,
and asked him to take the case in
hand. He at once appointed John
w. Davis of Kiowa, prominent
member of the last legislature, to
!. look after the CAGE. Mr.. Davis
went to Ulysses and took charge.
Judge Thompson thinks he will be
able to hear the case about June Z.
This is the first instance of the
attorney general taking a case
from a county attorney in this
part Of the state, and the trial
will be watched by many people
with more than ordinary interest.

'G. M. Foster and Mr.. Heffner
Of the Barden neighborhood were
here Monday and stated they had
just received returns on a private
shipment Of broom corn they had
shipped to Wichita over two
months ago. Mr.. Heffner said he
was offered $500 by a local buy
er and had turned it down expec-
ting to get more by shipping direct.
\ This was the price he was paid
for the same corn in Wichita the
only difference being $500 de-
Quoted for expenses, netting him
$4,000. Mr.. Foster had been of
fersd $1,000 per ton here but de-
cided he also could get more in
Wichita and his corn Melted him
$4,000 per ton. Besides the low
price received they had to wait
over two months for their money.
We could give you other instances
we could mention as quite few of
our farmers who made shipments
ofthis kind took business" trips
to Wichita this winter but always
maintained very uproarious
silence as to the nature of the trip
and prices received. We like to
see the farmers get the highest
prices possible out of their prod
ucts but in this case we don't be-

DEPUTY SHERIFF SUES
FOR SALARY ARREARS.
Claims Essex County Now Owes
Him SLIGO.

Suit against Essex county for
s1,100, alleged to represent arrears in
salary for fou years and three months.
was filed yesterday in the Circuit Court
by Cyrus Benedict, for TWEEN, y-se. en-
years an employee of the sheriff's Of
flee. A subpoena was served upon
Wallace Ougheltree, as director of the
Board of Freeholders, requiring him
to be present at the trial.
Benedict claims that he received a
salary of $3.50 a year from former
sheriffs when the office was conducted
under the fee system and each sheriff
paid his assistants. OF this amount
81, 800 was for his services as a DEPUTY
and the remaining $3.50 was for keeping
the books. When Sheriff Sommer came
into office the fee system was atol he'd
and Benedict was placed on the payroll
at $500. He claims that he spoke to
Mr.. Somlner about the discrepancy in
his salary and that Mr.. Sommer
promised to have the increased amount
given him.
about that time says Benedict.
SHERIFF Sommer became Ill and went
to Florida. When he returned I asked
him abou. the matter, but not DR.
his term of office was / allie to have
1t adjusted"
The Board of Freeho,ders rec ntiy
put Benedict down on the roll for 50 $50
salary, but declined to pay the bill for
four years and three months arrears
and the suit followed. The new county
counsel, whoever he may be, will be
asked to investigate the claim and al
low Benedict TO get judgment or set
tie the claim out of court, if it is found
to be a just one.

"CELLULOID NIGHT"
PRODUCES BUT One
century" MAN
BY BERT DODGE.

A LBERT KRAYL. with a score of
~ an wen 100. was the only bowler
of those who rolled on "Celluloid
Club Night" in the STAR headpin
tournament, to capture a watch-fob.
The big Lafayette street club sent up
sixty p~in-knights. and not a few of
them put up good scores. Krayl, how
ever, was the only one to reach the
century mark. He rolled as a member
of the Tuesday Night Clubs "B" team.
He had a mark of 81 In the eleventh
frame. having a strike with his eleventh
ball. In the last frame the hit was by
no means a perfect one. but six pins
fell down anil the needed 100 was OBJ
tanned.
In the very first squad Cannon, of the
Has Beens, tailed SO. His miss in the
third frame wal costly for him. Kap-
pier, of the Pen-Pushers, rolled 81. He
got a miss in the third frame, too, and
could not overcome the handicap. Hin
denlang started off with a miss and the
eleven hits that followed earned for him
only SO pins. Gindele, of the Tuesday
Night Clubs "A" team, rolled 90, with
a miss in the second frame. The scores
are all indicated below.

ENGLAND has been developing a
T. speedy lot Of small boys in the
boxing game. Her stock OF
heavyweights could be easily disposed
of in quick order by some of u men
whose aspirations to fame are quite
limited. Now we have another young
chappy from The other side, in the per-
eon Of wildcat" Brooks, who, Patsy
haley says, is "a right smart clevah
boxer"
1t has been left to Jersey to produce
a boy who can dissect him, speaking
f%iguratively. He is Joe Shugrue, Of
Jersey City, just turned 16 years, and
n of the cleverest of the new type
and a puncher of force. Un'ess our
visiting ousin is a remarkable chap,
Joe Is expected to defeat him wht
they start the milling Tuesday night
at Bill Browns gymnasium, IN
T~wenty-third street, New York.
Irish Mahon. who has also enjoyed
big prestige in this section, is training
with Joe down in Jimmy DeForest's
place. Mahon went there last Friday
to be put through the PAGES himself,
and, as he is of the type always willing
to mix M with a good punch, J,e
could not have had a better partner for
the time being.
Brooks came over with Freddy
Welsh a few weeks ago., and Tom
O'Rourke. of the National A. c., has
been hoping to see him developed, and
then he will have him perform at the
National. He is due to perform there
at this weeks show with Charlie
Griffen. Brooks's showing at Browns
will be awaited with interest by
O'Rourke n his clu.- members.
Shuerue quickly developed into a
fast boy. and became one to be reck-
oned with in q surprisingly quick
period. He Is q chum of Frankie
Burns, and spared with the latter at
the Holy Name Society entertainments
in Jersey City, and displayed such a
willingness to learn and had other
requisites that Burns taught him a lot
and Tommy Lee took him under his
wing.
Joe has been taking a f1ve-mile run
each morning, and boxes with Mahon
and Johnny Waltz, and also takes a
hand at wrestling. Shugrue is a good
performer in shadow boxing, and de-
lights those who visit his training
camp with his performances at this
needed diversion. Bag-punching and
rope-jumping add to his preparatory
work.
