MCClure'S Last Minute Goal
Wins for the Run1sOn -Four

Crawford. from play-ups by Bows, made
the only count Of the period and tied the
score. In the eighth Rumson had try
for goal with two and a half minutes TO
play, but Borden sent it out at the end.
Then followed McClure's goal that won
the game
Crawford in the second and Borden in
the sixth period made stops of balls with
their mallets in the air, unusual, and no
doubt somewhat lucky plays. In one Of
the periods Jones was hit on the head by
a mallet Although somewhat dazed, he
did not dsmount, but the play was
stopped for a few moments.
Borden's four seemed the best Of the
ponies used during the day, yet those OF

KANSAS MAYOR FACES PRISON
Destroyed Concrete Walk Around
Park, Which Had Been Ordered
Against His Will.

Pittsburg, Kansas.-Some time ago
the council of Arma, small city near
here, over the protest of Mayor Nor
gan, let contracts for concrete walks
around the city park. The contractor
was at work when the mayor ap-
preached and took a look. The sight
of public work ordered against his
will angered the executive.
Near him was shovel. He seized
it and jumped into a big block of saft
cement. In a few minutes he had
ruined the walk with boot and shovel.
The president of the council and the
contractor appeared before the coun-
ty attorney and swore out warrant,
charging the mayor with felonious and
malicious destruction of public prop
erty, which is punishable by impris-
onment in the state penitentiary.

SKULL CRUSHED AND THROAT CUT
Oklahoma Farmers Wife Met Death
Under Peculiar Circumstances
Stepson Escaped.

Helena, Oklahoma.-Mrs. Minnie
Ralstin, wife of Meek Ralstin, pros
porous farmer residing about five
miles southwest of Helena, was MUIR
dered early in the morning at her
home. Her skull was crushed and her
throat cut in two places.
Mr.. Ralstin and one of his sons had
gone about 20 miles with cattle. The
woman was left home with 1S-year-old
Meek Ralstin, the youngest son of Mr..
Ralstin and step-son of the MUIR
dered woman. According to a state
ment of Meek Ralstin he heard his
step-mother groan between 8 and 5
o'clock and heard someone say, Let's
get the rest of them" which fright
ened him so that he jumped out of a
window and ran. He says he was
ordered to halt, and, not needing the
warning, was fired at three times.
So far no clew has been found and
no cause ascribed.
