Mrs. W. w. Kinloch received a
telegram Thursday. April 4th, an
nouncing that her father, MIR. WIN.
Conrad, had died suddenly tina.
morning. MIR. Conrad was aged 90
years and 10 days. He was born
and raised in Indiana, came to Mis-
souri, in 1915, purchasing the farm
upon which he resided since, one
nile north of Billings. The morn
ing OF his death he walked to Billings,
one mile, and home again, ate a
hearty breakfast, and then went out
to the orchard to bnrn some brush,
and was found by bis. grandson with
in thirty minutes after dead. His
coMntenance indicated that his death
was instantaneous and painless. God
called and he was ready. His body
was laid to, rest in Rose Hill Gene
terry Saturday, a stones throw from
his home, on land he had donated
and sold for the purpose, carried
thence by his six sons. He was the
father OF twelve children, all OF whom
are alive, except Franz, who died in
his 2ls. year. and now have families
OF their own, there being Al grand
children. His wife Survives him.
He has gone home, for he knew in
whom lie trusted.
While slowly improving, we are not
yet able to walk without the aid OF

two, to be all right again, and into,

HUBBLE CERTAIN . TAFT WILL BE
 REELECTED
Confident That New York And Large States Will
 Be For Him
(From Sundays Daily)

Lorenzo Hubbell, chairman of the p,publican State Central committee ,s confident Taft win be reelected. He passed through Prescott yester. day afternoon from Washington, D. C 10 attend a meeting of the execu- five committee at Phoenix, and gave . brief interview on the presidential situation as far as he was able to make observations and become familiar with actual conditions.
 "The spasmodic outburst after the Chicago convention, with dissenters proclaiming against the executive, he said" has run it's race. The many who were outspoken and threatened to leave the party are ias, reappearine and enlisting for inc campaign. Everything is work ing better for Taft today than i'm. mediately after the convention was over.
 II was in New York a few days ago." he continued, "and there is no question whatever but what the president will sweep that state. This is conceded by every observing politician. Passing into Pennsyl- yania the situation was found very satisfactory, and of that electoral vote have no doubt but what it will 70 for Taft. Mir Finn, who SO strongly supported Roosevelt in inc convention, realizes now the iuility of following the ex-president and will soon wheel into line for Mr. Taft This is one of the en- couraging signs of the strength of ,hc president in that commonwealth. In Illinois the sentiment is daily growing stronger that there is no hope of electing Roosevelt. and the representative Republicans freely ad- mi, this as being true. One by one they are returning and inside of the next month the forecast of that state will show 1t is for Taft
 The whole situation, as far as it was able for me to look the field oyer after an absence of several months in the principal eastern states. may be summed up today as follows: The sober minded thinker, the man who has business interests, the representatives of in- dus,rial pursuits, the financicr and ihe manufacturer are seriously con Sdering the present political up- heaval, and you may rest assured ina, when the election takes place there will not be permitted to triumph continuation of chaotic conditions if these men can possibly prevent it with their votes and sup port. The coming fight is not a partisan one: it is for the continua- ion of business. and that is the goal for which the conservative and inc strong men of the nation are striving"

TRAVELS q MILES
 DISTANCE, FIFTEEN
(From rridsy's Daiiy.)

William Nelson while returning to the city Wednesday evening from his mining camp in the southern slope of the Black Hills range ex- perienced the unpleasant novelty of passing the entire night of, the plains of Loncs ,me valley.
 He arrived at about seven o'clock yesterday morning and confided t> a few friends only the reason for the delay in reaching home with his team. Leaving the camp as the sun was setting. after several days of an examination of his in. terests. he did not take into con sideration that half a dozen cloud bursts had passed over the country, after he reached the camp. He. started back over the. same road that he travelled to the mine. and had gone but three miles when his zig tagging itinerary was inaug- urated by reason of encountering a. deep rut that the team could not cross, He then retraced his route and started ahead again, only to meet with similar obstacle. This procedure was diligently followed out for the. entire night and finally the last gorge was crossed over after the animals were unlocked rnd the wagon sL,dded do,vu tho bank. when the team pulled the iyehiele on terra firma.
 The country is cut up into a series of ruts and ravines from ono end 10 the other, Mir Nelson states. and he estimated the distance cover ed as forfy-one miles instead of fifteen as the road runs across that open country. He is now an advo- cate of the aeroplanc method of travelling.
