He Served the Summons.

John Stangel served summons
near Hume this morning under diff
culties. He had been hanging around
Hume for a day or two for this pur-
pose. Several others had failed-not
because of any danger connected with
the process, but simply because the
party wanted did not want the service.
A well-to-do citizen, named M. O..
Dank, as Stangel tells it, lately placed
$50, 900 worth of western property in
to the hands of Wayts & Beadles, the
Hume real estate firm, for exchange.
A trade was brought about and Mr..
Dank obtained 100 acres Of land, 300
acres of which lies in Missouri and
800 acres just across the line in Kan
sas. As Mr.. Dank lives in Kansas,
and Wayts & Beadle desired to bring
suit against him in Missouri for a
commission growing out of services
for him as real estate agents, it was
necessary to serve the summons in
this state. Mr.. Stangel ascertained
that Mr.. Dank used some of his Mis-
souri, land as a cow pasture, so he
slipped out at 4 o'clock this morning
and took position in ditch on the
state line between the two bodies of
land, and as Mr.. Dank drove his Kan
sas cows into his Missouri pasture

Obituary.

Mrs. Charlotte Hulse was born in
Bourbon county, KY, March IL,
1880.
In early childhood she, with her
parents, moved to Clay county, NO.,
where she grew to womanhood and
was married to Mr.. P. K. Hulse Feb.
18th, 1851. To this happy union / 1
children were born-eight sons and
three daughters. One son, one
daughter and beloved companion
preceded her across the river OF
death.
In 1873 she, with her family, came
to Bates county, No.. and in 1882
they came to Butler, NO., where she
resided for 20 years.
For the past five years Sister Hulse
has been in declining health. On
April 18th; t9tt, at the ripe old age
of 81 years, one month and six days,
she peacefully passed away at the
home of her daughter in Broken Ar
row, Okla.
She leaves seven sons, two daugh-
tiers, a number of relatives and many
friends to mourn her departure.
However, we should not erieve over
much concerning her. For our loss
is her eternal gain.
More than so years ago Sister
Hulse gave her heart to God and unit
ed with the Methodist church.
For more than half a century she
has been q constant, faithful and ear
nest Christian.
For weeks she has been waiting,
with patience and submission, her
Fathers call from labor to reward.
She fought good fight, finished her
course and kept the faith. Hence
forth there is laid upon her a crown
Of righteousness; and not for her on
ly, but for all Of the finally faithful.
To those who mourn the loss Of a
loving mother / would say: Follow
her al she followed Christ
Emulate her example in earnest eff,
fort, constant devotion and faithful

Free List Bill in House.

Washington, D. c., April A.-Th'
farmers free list bill became the pend
ing order of business in the House to
day.
When it was taken up, just before
the days session adjourned, it was
with assurances from Chairman Un'
derwood Of the Ways and Means
Committee that the House majority
does not purpose to put limit on de-
bate. However, Mr.. Underwood
confidently expects a vote will be
taken at the end of two weeks.
Representative j. w. Alexander,
of Missouri, was called to the chair
by Speaker Clark when the Housere-
solved itself into committee of the
whole for the purpose of considering
the bill. He was greeted with a
round of applause from the Deme-
cratic side. Speaker Clark will sit
as a member of the committee while
the debate is in progress, and it is not
unlikely that he will take hand in
the proceedings. 1t is a rule of the
House that while that body sits as a
committee, chairman, other than the
Speaker himself, shall preside.
No matter how much discussion is
precipitated by the free list bill, it
will be passed without amendment.
The Democrats are intent upon doing
this. A point of order will be made
against every amendment which is
not germane, and other amendments
will be laid aside with the understand
ing that they will be given considera-
ton in more general tariff revis-
ion which is planned for the regular
session.
The House will get down to the
wool and cotton schedules, according
to Chairman Underwood, as soon as
the free list is out Of the way. A
caucus will be called on these bills.
It Is practically certain that the sugar
schedule will not be reached until
next winter.
The sugar schedule" declared
Mr.. Underwood, Carries some &c.,
10000 Of revenue. We are going
about this tariff revision in safe and
aane way and will not cut the &c.,

Halls Store Robbed Again.

For the second time within seven
weeks Amos Halls store was broken
into last Wednesday night and more
than dozen pairs shoes, some
watches and some small change taken
from the cash drawer. Entrance was
gained by prying up window in the
room in which the acytelene light
plant is stored, and then forcing the
lock on the door from that room into
the main store room. Mr.. Hall is
now terrifying against further intru-
sion in his store by having heavy
wooden shutters hung at his doors
