Mrs. Ellen f. Rowland Has
Seen Graham Grow.

Hill City, Kan, Feb. 13.-There is
controversy between two Kansas wom-
en- as to which one of them have
served their counties longest as regis

HE GETS A HARD SHOCK.
Gunsmith Knocked From Anvil by
Current From Light.

Wichita, Kan, Feb. 13.-KnoCked
from an anvil upon which he was
standing and stunned by an electric
current he had accidentally shorted,
James A. Stafford a gunsmith, passed
through all the thrills and quivers of
being electrocuted. Mr.. Stafford lights
his gunshop with electricity, and, as
the morning was dark, he had the
light switch turned on.
He uses an extension light while
working at the lathe and other ma
chinery. He was at the lathe and,
as the light has a long cord, thought
it would be a good idea to lead the
cord over a gas pipe. To reach the
gas pipe he climbed upon his anvil.
Holding the electric globe in one hand,
he threw the cord over the gas pipe
with the other. AS the cord struck
the pipe, the body of Staford'S be-
came rigid.
The strength of the current was not
heavy enough to make Mr.. Stafford
unconscious instantly. He remained
conscious for several seconds Che says
it seemed like weeks) trying to get
his feet off the anvil and his hand
off the globe. Try hard as he
could, his vocal chords wouldn't work.
He was unable to do either, and the
connection was broken only when he
became unconscious and fell off the
anvil With the exception of a
bruised hip and a general soreness. he
was uninjured-
Although the voltage that passed
through his body was almost enough
to kill a man, he was able to converse
about the accident, and other than
from feeling a bit sore is unhurt.

CLYDE CLEAN UP HALTED.
County Attorneys Baby Sick, Sheriff
Comes to Topeka.

Comes to Topeka.
Concordia, Kan, Feb. 13.-The
cleanup Clyde campaign was halted
by the illness of the baby of County
Attorney Van De Mark which made it
impossible for him to go to Clyde to
continue the inquisition, and Sheriff
Moore was called to Topeka in con-
nection with some legislation in which
the Kansas Sheriffs' association is in
terested. The inquisition will be held
later in the week and the officials
have decided to conduct the pumping
process before a Justice of the peace,
and in case any witness begins to eX-
hibit a failing memory or decides that
he doesn't want to divulge information
in his possession, the justice will COM
nit him to the county jail. County
Attorney Van De Mark proposes to use
this scheme on all inquisitions.
Baker, the big man who was depu-
tized by the marshal to assist in the
original raid, is living in fear and
trembling as a result of a black hand
letter which he received bearing the
skull and cross bones and some bloody
finger marks. The letter was turned
over to the authorities who believe
that some practical jokers are trying
to have some fun out of Baker. How
ever, that gentleman has purchased a
Savage automatic and is devoting all
of his spare time to target practice so
that joke, or no joke, he is going to
be ready if the lightning strikes.
