laughed heartily. II hope your broken

case that called me ten miles away

was speaking he had assisted the
stranger into the Office, followed by
Helen, her arms full Of cushions.
She saw the stranger, tall, strong,
with a rarely winning smile, watching
her face intently.
The doctor bundled the newcomer
into the sitting room "Sit down before

sleeves, set the arm and bandaged 1t

left the house.
Helen locked the doors carefully and
assured herself that the windows were
locked and shades drawn down. Then
she ran to the office window and part
ed the curtains to watch her father
drive out Of the yard. Ben's hoofs
tramped out Of the barn. around the
drive, and the doctors hand waved a
shadowy farewell as the buggy rolled
through the gate.

She tried to fasten her mind on her

She turned the lamp higher and
leaned back in her chair. II wish I'd

With some uneasineSs she went Into

in which she placed some great red
apples, handful of chestnuts, a sharp
knife and AIMS small, square looking

Uncle Jimmie Cox Leaves Home
stead for Ohio Town.
In 30 Years He Never Leaves
Home for Neal.
HIS HOUSE MYSTERY
Only One Man Save Owner Ever
Entered Door.
Fond of Company Aged Recluse
Never Visited"

Great Bend, Kan, July lO.-When
Uncle Jimmie" Cox, a little weakened
lrishman, who lived up in the Galitia
neighborhood in the northwest part of
the county, came to Great Bend the
other day and purchased a ticket for
a little town in Ohio, Barton county
lost one of its quaintest characters.
For 35 years he had lived by himself
on the claim" he homesteaded in 1876.
In all that time he never took a meal
on his farm and the inside of his house
was never seen by more than one man.
The house stood desolate, without a
tree, or shrub Of any sort around it
and the door was always locked. Visi-
tors always met Jimmie in the yard,
and, though Jimmie was garrulous aud
liked company outside his house, he
never invited anybody inside.
Although he raised fairly good crops
it was always somewhat of a mystery
as to how he got them planted or tend
ed: 1t was seldom that any Of his
neighbOrS saw him in the field. When
anybody called Jimmie would walk out
of the back door of his house (the
only one he ever used) lock it care
fully behind him and meet the visitor
in the yard. Here he was extremely
jolly and talkative and would frequent
ly urge the guest to stay and talk
awhile longer But the house remain
ed closed against all corners.
One Man Enters House.
Only one man living in this country
is known to have entered the place
J. NJ. Colver, formerly employed in the
Office of the register of deeds, who went
to the place on legal business. Ac-
cording to his report Jimmie refused
to light a lamp in the house, but as
some papers had to be examined he
finally consented to open the back door
a crack, standing guard while the ex-
animation was made.
The house itself was as staunch rs
a fort, built of stone, one story high,
with windows and doors boarded up.
The stone walls are fully two feet
thick, with an inside frame of inch
planking. No light was ever seea
within.
Uncle Jimmie came to America
from Ireland when he was IL years
old, in 1876 he came to Barton county
and took up a homestead and timber
claim. He proved up on both of these
and owned them until last week. He
had many friends throughout the neigh
borhood, and his life as a recluse did
not make him a silent or reserved man.
He informed some Of his friends that
during all the hard and dry times
there never was a time 1 didn't have
at Taste swim hundred dollars in the
house an sometimes more"
He says he has more money now
than he can use during the balance of
his life so has decided to retire. He
has sold his farm to Peter Brock of
Olnitz, another early settler in this
county, for $4,000.
