begun a parade through the streets

Harold Myers Drowned

Harold Vincent Myers, son Of Mr..
and Mrs. E. E, Myers, was drowned
in deepwater hole in Igo creek, eleven
miles northeast of Keota, at about
O'Clock last Saturday afternoon.
The child and it's mother were return
ing home from Keota when the accident
occurred. Mrs. Myers had left the
buggy to open gate at the old Fitch
place, allowing the boy to drive thru
the gate. The horse, which was blind,
became frightened and ran, plunging
over the embankment, thirty feet from
the gate. Mrs. Myers was drawn into
the water with the buggy. having just
reached it as it toppled over. Harold
was thrown from the buggy. and must
have become entangled with weeds or
brush at the bottom of the water hole,
Nfor he did not rise to the surface. 1t
was only after two hours of graphing
with garden rake attached to a long
piece of pipe that the body was recov-
cred by Messrs. Nelson, Haworth and
Deal, who had come to the assistance
of Mrs. Myers.
The mother was prostrated from grief
and injuries she received, and il still
confined to her bed. The boy was the
only child of Mr.. and Mrs. Myers, and
death is sad blow to the parents. He
was five years old on January 80.
No inquest was held, as Coroner T. S.
Macy considered it unnecessary.
The funeral was conducted by Rev.
T. w. Winkler from the Myers residence
at 9 o'clock Tuesday morning, and was
largely attended by friends and neigh
bors of the family. Music was furnished
by Mr.. and Mrs. Minard, Mrs. Filler and
Mrs. Shores. Mrs. Shores and Mrs.
Minard sang beautiful duet at the
grave, where short service was held
At 2 p. m. Interment was in Keota
cemetery.
Mr. and Mrs. j. w. Hunter of Cree
ley, the latter sister of Mr.. Myers,
and Mrs. F. H.. Anderson, sister of
Mrs. Myers. came for the funeral and
remained until Friday.

C. L. Stanley, Editor News,
Keota, Colo.
The house today ratified the confer
ees' report on the Borah- Rucker three
year homestead bill and it now goes to
the President for his signature.
A. w. RUCKER.
The bill applies alike to quarter Sec
tion homesteads and those taken under
the enlarged homestead law. The cul-
tivation requirements for enlarged
homestesds are reduced to 20 acres be-
ginning with the second year of entry,
and 40 acres beginning with the third
year. Five months leave of absence is
allowed the entryman each year, SO
that title may be gotten with only
twenty-one months of actual residence.
Thousands will be accorded immedi-
ate patent, having already lived upon
their holdings the length of time re-
quired by the new law.
One provision Of the bill requires the
secretary of the interior to Immediately
furnish to each person who has claim
pending copy of the new laws so he
may determine-h rights without de-
lay.
Senator Newlands of Nevada, one Of
the senate conferees, for time threat
ened to file minority report on the bill
on account of it's lack of conservation
features as originally proposed by the
secretary Of the interior. He withheld
his disapproval and contented himself
with remarks to the senate in which he
deplored the fact that no provision was
made for retaining to the government
the title to minerals, water power and
timber tracts in homesteads.

Developing New Type of Chicken

Developing New Type of Chicken
D. w. Schoonover has the beginning
of what may be new breed of chicken.
The little fellow is like the ordinary
leghorn chick in every way except that
it has an extra pair of well-developed
yellow legs growing just behind those
on which it walks. As it was Matched
on Sunday, and preachers have a nat
ural fondness for the yellow-legged va
riety of poultry, the descendants of
this chick should prove exceedingly pop
ular with the ministerial profession.
With four legs the chicken may be ex-
pected to do twice the usual amount Of
scratching. thus getting double por-
ton of food and making more rapid
growth. Spring fries should be 1T least

Did you ever hunt for a hatpin in q

woman who lost the pin does not know
exactly where it dropped out Of the
carriage? It is great sport There
were three other parties in the car
rage who did not return to hunt for
the pin, but left the young woman and
the young man to trail back over the
road. The persons in the carriage sus-
pected that the hatpin affair had been
made up by the couple hunting for it
and so did not interfere, which was
very good Of them. After strolling
back a mile and a half, so that the oc-
cupants of the carriage were dimly
visible in the distance, the hunters
started to return. The party in the
carriage then began to realize that

RATTLE OF ENNISKILLEN

July 80, 1859

" HE hattie Of Enniskillen, or as
it is sometimes called, Newton
Butler. fought 22S years ago to-
day-July so, 1sSs-between the Scotch
and English adherents of William the
Third and the forces of King James
the Second, ranks high among the re-
markable military events Of history.
Wonderful within itself, as piece
of work on the battlefield, II helped TO
shape the events which have endured
for more than two centuries, and its
influence may yet extend for centuries
into the future
The cause Of Enniskillen dates back
10 16os12. when. in consequence Of re-
peated rebellions and Instructions,
James the First took 100000 acres OF
land in Ulster and had il vested in the
Crown, after which he caused it to be
divided among such OF his Scotch and
English adherents as cared to become
settlers.
Human nature being the same then
that we find il today, the ousted party
did not accept the situation very grace
fully. and from the start there was
trouble between the newcomers and
the old proprietors and tenants
When William, of Orange, became
king of England the trouble was
nightly accentuated. and there began
a fierce struggle for the mastery in
Ulster; a struggle that was destined
fairs as the siege of Londonderry. the
battle of the Boyne and the ever-mem-
orable clash at Enniskillen.
Beaten in his attempt upon London
berry, James turned his attention to
Enniski1len. little dreaming Of the ter
rible disaster that was to meet him
in that direction.
On the morning of July 50, Berry,

way to Crum. a frontier garrison OF
