ROBBERY At ELLINWoob.

The Stephan. & Isem Mere. Co.'S,
Store was entered some time during
Saturday night and a large quantity
Of goods stolen, also about $3.50 In
cash. The thief or thieves evidently
got inbo the store before closing time
and hid themselves, because there is
no evidence to show how they had
got in after the store had been closed
for the night. In this way It would
give them plenty of time to select
from the stock just what goods they
waned. The cupnt took, so far as
could be learned the first Of the week

The officers were called to Little
Mexico, the colony north of the round

badly wounded. They went down at
once and found a haflbreed, known
as Indian Jim. He had been shot
with a high calibre que, the bullet
blowing through the right leg just
below the knee and then entering the
loot. Jim told them he had been
over in the ingles and had shot him
SeH accidentally and had then been
carried to the colony. The officers
are inclined to believe that he got
In a row and got shot and that he
refuses to tell anything about the
matter.
Indian Jim is part Indian and part
Mexican in appearance, taller and
larger than the average Mexican and
has never been known to perform an!

been here. He dresses fairly neat

THRILLED WITH THE COURT.

Sam Shabtuck, deputy sheriff, was
over from Hoisington one day last
week. He brought over T. L. Wag-
soner. who was found guilty i'm Judge
W. E. Holler's court OF disturbing
the peace Of A. H. Baker and fined
$l5 and costs and in default of pay
ment was committed 10 the c0uny
jail until paid. The story Of the case
was something like this. A man who
S employed by the railroad there
had his pay garnisheed in Justice Ba-
ker'S court and went before Judge Ba
ker and told him that he owed the
Dill and confessed the Judgement. Mr..
Waggoner who figures as somewhat o
lawyer, went before Mr.. Baker and
insisted that he set aside the Judge
ment that had been confessed and re-
open the case. Mr.. Baker argued
with Mr.. Waggoner, telling him that
the defendent had confessed the debt
and judgement and refused to set it
aside. Waggoner became abusive
and was ordered out. Waggoner went
out of the office and then proceeded
to call Mr.. Baker various and sundry
names. Judge Baker called ON the
other justice, Judge Holler, and filled
a complaint with the first mention
ed result. Mr.. Baker is we'll up in
years while Waggoner is a young
man and rather a new resident at
Hoisington.
