Sons Journey West And Induce
Their Father To Return to
Kentucky.

Forty years ago Lawson K. Lane.

and identified by friends. Mrs.
Lane was left with three small child
rem. After four years she married
a man named Denton. Of Union
county. Two years ago the latter
died. Mrs. Lane-Denton then moved
to Indiana to live with one of her
sons. Several months ago she ap-
piled for pension. as the widow OF
Lane who fought in the civil war.
An Investigator was sent by the
pension bureau to determine her
claim. The investigator got his
first clue that the drowned man
might not have been her husband.
when Mrs. Lane-Denton told him
she did not attend the funeral of her
husband and had no certain know
ledge that the body found was that
Of Mr.. Lane. Working on this clue
the investigator developed the fact
that Lane had not been drowned but
was living on farm in southeastern
Missouri.
Upon this discovery two OF the
sons made the journey to Missouri
and found in reality that their father
was alive. They induced him to re-
turn to Kentucky to see his former
wife and in a few days he came to
Princeton.

Habeas Corpus Releases
 Morris and Norman.

Morris and Norman, who were sent
 to the county jail last week on con-
 mitment issued by the Justice of the Peace of Goldroad, on a charge of grand larceny, were released on ha-
 beas corpus by Judge Doe, at Flagstaff, last Tuesday. The writ was sued out by Jno. W. Lane and the hearing de- veloped that no crime had been charg- ed by the complaining witness in the Justices court. Morris & Norman had relocated mining claims formerly owned by the Florence-Goldroad con- pany, corporation organized a few years ago by Charles Jones, and in do- ing so found large number of mining tools on the claims. They took pos session of the tools and refused to give them up when later claimed by anoth- CT person, unless a bill of sale was produced to show ownership. This the claimant did not produce. but instead went to the Justice and swore to complaint charging Morris & Norman with grand larceny. When the men were brought into court they waived their preliminary examination and the Justice had no option but held them in 1,OOOs bail to the grand jury. When they were brought to the county seat they set about securing their release.

kingman Needs Good
 School Building.

The people of Kingman are begin ming to recognize the pressing need of new school building or a large addi- tion to the present structure. The school rooms are now badly over crowded and it is expected that ar engagements will have to be made for new quarters for one of the teachers before school opens next September.
 It is fact that the present location of the school is not the best to be ob- tained for the purpose and that the building and site can probably be dis posed of for far more than it originally cost. It would be the better plan to sell the property and purchase a site where the children could have more freedom and a roomier building, to which library and gymnasium could be added. The trustees have suggested that a mass meeting of the people be called, at which definite plans could be made for a new school building.

going to have it so.

be paid proper damages. He was
