West, Thrown From Horse
and May Die.

Dodge City, Kan.-Chalk NJ. Beeson,
a plainsman and a widely known
character of western Kansas, was
thrown from a horse here and may die
from his injuries.
! Beeson was sheriff of Ford county
from 1892 to 1896.
( When the Spearville bank was
robbed in 1894 by a gang of outlaws
from the territory, Chalk resented the
encroachments of the territory robbers
and proceeded to go after them, and
one morning near the town of ingalls,,
ok. a battle occurred which for a few
moments filled the surrounding at
mosphere with bullets. AS a result
ione of the robbers did not have to be
served with requisition papers in or
der to be removed to Kansas for trial.
Bill Doolan was the head of this gan
and the death of Oliver Yantes, the
man killed by Beeson and his party,
was the beginning of the breaking up
of the Doolan gang.

CONSTABLE A FEUD VICTIM
HAD TESTIFIED AGAINST CATTLE
THIEVES.
Porum Quarrel Has Continued for
Two Years-Dead Man Long
Feared Vengeance.

Muskogee, OklahOma.-Dan Foster,
a constable, was shot and killed
from ambush on a lonely country road
in the southern part of Muskogee
county, adding one more murder to the
Davis-Hester, or, as it is more COM
monty known, Porum feud, which, dur
ing the last two years, has cost a
score of lives.
Fosters body was found in the
road with two bullet holes in the head.
In a weed field nearby was found the
ambush of the assassin. His tracks
led to where he had his horse con-
cealed, but there the trail was lost,
Evidently the crime was committed
during a heavy electrical storm.
Foster once was a member of the
Davis faction but later is said to have
deserted them, joining the Hester fac
ton Several months ago he was
brought back from Montana to testify
against Bob Davis and Pony Starr,
charged with stealing cattle. On his
testimony many of the secrets of the
feud were revealed. Davis and Starr
were convicted.
Foster had stated but a few days
ago that he feared that he would be
killed if he remained in the county
He had been in penitentiary four
times, convicted of counterfeiting,
larceny and bootlegging.
The scene of most of the battles in
the feud is near the town of Forum,
around which the leaders of both fac
tions live. From the town the feud
derives the name by which it is more
commonly known.

STUBS Is REPUBLICAN NOMINEE
Legislative Districts to Assure
Nomination.

Topeka, Kansas.-While Senator
Curtis claims and appears to have a
popular majority in Kansas, Gov.
Stubs has walked away with the Re-
publican nomination for United States
senator
Curtis has carried the popular vote
by 1000 or 5000 popular majority
over Stubbs, but the governor has
about 80 Legislative districts out of
the 165 and has the nomination.
On the face of the returns received
at various headquarters Gov. Stubs
has now 81 legislative districts uncon-
tested by Curtis claims. Curtis has
72 districts not contested by Stubs.
1t requires SO districts to nominate.
The returns available give Stubbs
actually an even 80 districts.
Returns from Sedgwick county at
midnight substantiated Stubbs' claim
to two legislative districts in the coun-
ty, giving Curtis only one district.

12 or 10 others received minor injuries
when a small tornado broke the main
pole of the Chautauqua tent here.
There were about 900 persons in the
tent when the storm broke. Ralph
Parletta of Chicago was giving a

The collapse of the tent buried the
entire crowd under the canvas. The
more dangerously injured were struck
by the main pole.
A small tornado shaped cloud ac-
companied by a heavy rain swept
over the town from the northeast.
Small buildings were blown down,
roofs of several houses were torn off
and trees were uprooted. The tele-

Mckinley made a runaway race,
easily defeating Leon Quick of st.
Louis and A. Pat Murphy of Rolla.
Boone county, which was Cowherd
stronghold for years went for Major
by 1917. Clinton, Cowherd carried
over Ball by $50, went for Major.
The attorney general carried Cole
by 600. The same county gave Cow
herd 400 in 1908, Cooper, in which
Cowherd led by so votes, is Major by
200. DeKalb, Iron, Mercer, Miller,
Pettis, Vernon and Henry counties, all
of which Cowherd carried in 1908,
gave substantial majorties to Major.
Ball, according to the returns, has
not carried a county.
William R. Painter is far in the lead
for lieutenant governor on the Demo
cratic ticket. He will be nominated
over Alexander Boon.

FOR SAFETY TO THE DRIVER
Mirrors Installed on Streets of English
Towns Have Proved Of Material
Benefit. q,

Mirrors at street corners to provide
for the drivers of vehicles view OF
the cross streets have been installed
In at least two towns in England. In
Folkestone there is an acute angle
street crossing where one corner is
built up close to the curb. On this
corner is placed a 24x24 inch mirror
such an angle that drivers Of vehicles
coming toward the built-up corner
from either of the two opposite streets
can see up the streets at right an.
giles to their path.
The engineer in charge states that
owing to the impossibility of motor
lists seeing any one-coming traffic sew.
eral accidents and narrow escapes
have occurred at that point. Since
the mirror has been fixed he has not
heard Of anything approaching an ac-
cident. The damp, mist, rain or frost
have no i'll effect on the mirror,
which is occasionally cleaned by

Washington, d. C.-The battleship
Nebraska ran on an uncharted shoal
near Newport, R. l., and was seriously
damaged.
The flagship Connecticut about the
same time broke it's starboard crank
shaft and has been ordered to Phila-

ordered the Nebraska to the Boston

of the battleships in reserve at the

The Connecticut's accident was not
so serious.
