Stole E,vidence in Court.

Liberal, kan, April 26.-During- the
trial of a liquor case in the district
court here a few days ago a man by
the name of Anderson quietly slipped
M to the lawyers table and inadvert-
{ .tly or otherwise slipped a half pint
bottle of whisky into his coat pocket.
The bottle was taken by Anderson
from an array of liquor TASKS which
were being used in evidence by the
prosecuting attorney, Clyde r. Com
mons It is a strange sight to see
whisky setting out on table in this
part of the state and Mr.. Commons
kent his eye on the display studiously.
He therefore noticed the absence of
the bottle soon after its disappearance
and Immediately located Anderson and
called him into an anteroom. Ander-
son gave the bottle up, apologized to
the court and was turned over to the
sheriff to be kept out of the court
room till the trial was over and the
arrav of bottles cleared away.

DO AVIAN With PRIMARY Fxpense.

Dodge City, Kan, April 26.-With
the Ford county convention close at
hand the Republican committeeman
of this city have gone on record
as against the preference primary. 1t
is thought to be too expensive and
not necessary. The unique plan has
therefore been adopted by the unani-
nous vote of the city committeeman
and the county chairman. w. T. Cool
idge, to hold caucuses for all four
wards of the city at the court house
at the same time next Saturday even
ing Arrangements have been made
for the voters of the various wards to
meet at different places in the building
and all four meetings will be pulled off
at once. The interest in the presiden-
tial fight here is high but it is thought
that this arrangement will obviate the
necessity of spending a single cent
and the sentiment can be voiced with
out cost.

To Rebuild at Once.

Dodge City. Kan, April 26.-Since
the big $4,000 fire here a few weeks
ago the officers of the National Bank
of Commerce have decided to rebuild
at once. The new building will be
much larger and costlier than the old
one and unless there are some delays
in getting building material the work
will proceed at a rapid rate. In case
President H. A Burnett decides to use
terra Gotta instead of building stone
there will be some delay in getting
the material. The building will be
one of the finest business blocks in the
city when completed.
