Stranger That williamsburg
Woman Meets Romanticly.
County Care Follows Deed OF
Home to Stranger.
HUSBAND TOOK FARM.
Now Mrs. De Graw Becomes In
Urinary Inmate.
Matrimonial Tragedy Follows
Registration by Agency.

OTTAWA, Kan. AN. 21.-The final chap
ter to one of the real tragedies In mat
rimony began last night, when Mrs.
Carrie DeGraw. IS years old, Of Will
iamsburg, was placed in the county in
Urinary where she will end her days.
Her story is the story of an attractive
widow, with money and property, and
a designing adventurer, with lots of
nerve and little principle.
Mrs. DeGraw Is still attractive, but
broken in health and spirits; she pre-
sents a much different appearance
from the woman whom Daniel DeGraw
married June 2. 1909. She was brought
to Ottawa yesterday and last night
spent her first night as a charge of
the county. Strenuously she fought
against this last move. but without
avail. Living alone in little tumble
down hut in Williamsburg, she was
compelled either to take up her resi-
denee on the county farm or live in
poverty and wretchedness, with no 9TH
err food or clothing except what has
been given her.
When Mrs. DeGraw registered her
name in the files of a matrimonial
agency, she took the first step toward
misfortune. Her name then was Mrs.
Carrie Slusher. Her deceased hus-
band had left her a good farm Of so
acres. well improved, five miles south
west of Williamsburg on the county
line. She mentioned the farm in her
advertisement. and it quickly caught
the eye of Daniel DeGraw, a man
ten years her junior. A correspondence
was begun and then the two met. And
when they met they arranged for the
marriage.
\But DeGraw was not looking for a
wife, he was looking for property. So
few minutes before the ceremony
was performed. Mrs. Slusher, without
thought of the consequences of the
act, gave her prospective husband, a
deed to her little farm, all she had in
the world. On September %, 1909, an
other deed was filed in the register
office. This told of the sale of the lit
tie farm to Clarence A. Lewis, for the
sum of 81, 300. Close on its heels came
the report that DeGraw had left his
wife, and from that day nothing has
been heard from him. He left about
$50 with a neighbor for his wife, but
aside from that he took all that she
ever had.
Mrs. DeGraw still trusts her miss.
ing husband, and just few days age
told one of her neighbors upon whom
she had called for aid, that she be.
| lieved he would yet return to her.

Jack johnson, Actor, Denies That He
VIII Meet Langford.

Chicago, Jan. 21.-At the home of
Jack johnson, heavyweight champion,
it is stated that the negro has been
matched to meet Al Kaufman in Lon
don on a certain date in April in a
twenty round bout. 1t is understood
the bout will take place before Hugh
McIntosh's club, where Sam Langford
and Bill Lang will battle in a twenty
round go next month. Aside from the
fact that johnson and Kaufman have
been matched nothing else could be
learned from the family. Johnson is
now in Pittsburg.
Pittsburg, Jan. Eft do not intend
to fight for six months and will enter
tain no challenges until after that
time" said Champion Jack Johnson
when shown a telegram from Chicago
announcing he was to meet Al Kauf-
man in London next April. Johnson,
who is here with a theatrical outfit.

LII ARTHUR LOOKING FOR FIGHT
Black Champion Offering to He
| Can Whip kaufman.

Pittsburg, Pa, Jan. 21.-Jack John
son, heavyweight pugilist, last night
offered $4,000 to $1,000 that he can
knockout either Al Kaufman or Geo.
Cotton. In the case of Cotton, the
champion is willing to fight the mo-
ment the contest is arranged and guar
anteeS to win in less than ten rounds
for forfeit $4,000. AS to a fight
with Kaufman, Johnson was not spec
ific, except to state he would want
four weeks in which to prepare him.
self.
The matter seemed to worry John
son. He visited the Gazette-Times Of
fee tonight, made out the $4,000
check payable to the newspaper and
left disappointed when the newspaper
refused to hold the money. He insisted
he would place the check with some
reputable person before leaving the
city.
Earlier in the day Johnson made a
statement that he had no intention of
entering the ring for six months
Johnson's offer to meet Al Kaufman
dissipates a Chicago runor that the
men had already been matched to
fight 20 rounds in London in April.

Seneca wants State NORMAL,

Seneca, Kan, Jan. 21.-Anticipating
the strong possibility that the 1egisla-
ture now in session will pass a bill
providing for the establishment of nor
NAL schools auxiliary to the one at
Emporia, one to be located at Garden
City and the other some place in the
First of the Fifth district. the Business
Mems club of Seneca have a commit
tee of eight of the strongest men in the

have already received the endorse
ment and promises of support from

an agreement to donate twenty acres
of land adjoining Seneca on the west,
a site valued at $4,000 for the loca-
ton of the school.

Hundred Full Blooded Indians May
Decide to Go to Mexico.

Columbus, kan, Jan. 21.-The call
of the wild is sounding in the hearts of
a hundred full blood Quapau Indians
just south of Baxter Springs. Although
every member Of the tribe has two
hundred acres of smooth prairie land
in his allotment near Baxter, and al
though the allurements of the white
mans civilization are numerous
around them, the Quapaus are dick
ering for the purchase of a tract of
wild land in Old Mexico.
The land in Old Mexico is located
between two big rivers and abounds in
game. In the center of it is a noun
tain range which makes strong ap-
peal to some members of the tribe.
Fishing and hunting and the POSSIBLE
ity of buying the Mexican tract at
about So an acre are elements of the
attractiveness of a tribal move away
from the present location near Baxter.

Irish Gallagher, Whirlwind Amateur
to Pitch for AnfeIones


to Pitch for AnteIopes,
Denver, Jan. 21-Dave, alias Irish
alias Father" Gallagher. one of the
best known amateur pitchers in DEN
yer and Colorado, has been signed for
a tryout with the Lincoln club of the
western league during the coming sea-
son. He sent in his signed contract
last week and all that now remains for
the youngster to do is to report and
then make good.
Gallagher realizes that this latter
task will not be easy. but he figures
that If one never tries he never sue
ceeds and he will go to Lincoln in the
spring determined to do or die. He is
confident that IL given a fair chance he
will earn a regular place on the Ante
lopes' pitching staff.
He is an East Denver boy and was
born and reared here. His work with
Lincoln, If he succeeds in earning a
position on the team. will be watched
with much interest by Denver people.
Gallagher is only % years of age
and If he should fail to keep the pace
set in the Western league he still has
time in which to get schooling in a
league of lower classification

His Trainer of 100000 Purses
Quits Him.

New York, Jan. 21.-The James R.
Keene stable is not likely to figure
largely in turf events in America dur
ing the coming season, according to adj
vices of local horsemen. It is said the
best of the string will be raced in Eng

A further report in this connection
is that James Rowe, who has trained
the Keene horses for years, has AMIGA

and will train H. B. Duryea's horses in
England and France during the ap-

INNIAN WANTS no GET LIGHT.
Mcpherson VIII Fgure on Proposition
to Run Line There

Mcpherson, Kan, Jan. 21.-The city
council is negotiating with the city of
Inman on "a project of running a line
from Mcpherson to Inman to carry
current for city lighting purposes
there, connecting with the new. electric
plant here.
{ Similar negotiations are also being
made with Canton and Galva.
i Superintendent A. J. Shaw in speak
ing of this said: I'VE are considering
the construction of the west line to RUN
to Conway and from there south to
Inman. When we are at Conway we
are only a short distance. from Win
dom. Again Inman is only about half
a dozen miles from Butler, nice
sized town across the line in Reno
county. OF course these are only
suggested plans and may not material
ize, but I think they are a good basis
to work on"

CIMARRoN Is AFTER WATER
Gray County Folk Have Fears 1t Will
Be All Taken.

Cimarron, Kan. JAN 21.-Fearful
that all the water of the Eureka irri-

Ford county people, movement has
been launched here to get water rights
from the ditch company for this vi
cinity.
AS is now proposed the ditch would
carry water straight through Gray
county to be put in use in Ford coun-
ty. One Ford county farmer, Joseph
Minor, has bought up water rights for
325 acres of land, paying $4,000 cash
for the right.
Mr.. Minor has lived on the Arkan-
sas river bottom for many years and
has made a special study of irrigation
and of the underf1ow. He figures that
the pump at the head of the ditch
will constantly grow more efficient,
as the underf1ow water VIII constantly
wash out the finer sand, leaving the
coarser gravel, which will facilitate
the flow.
