COLT TOSSED CHILD.
Two Year Old Boy Grabbed by Foot
VIII Recover

Munden, Kan, Aug. 25.-Robert,
the little year old son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Charles Stephens of Munden, was
the ictim of a peculiar experience, in
which he narrowly escaped death. The
child was playing in the yard and, un-
noticed by the parents. wandered to
the pasture in which were a number
of horses, among them being a ? year
old colt.
The colt had been in the habit of
picking up rags or anything it could
get hold of with its teeth and tossing
them in the air. The animal picked up
the little boy. Nern Darby, a neigh
Dor. who was driving past saw the
child'S predicament and went to his
rescue, followed by the parents. AL
though picked up by the bare feet,
the child suffered no broken bones
and will recover.

HE NEEDS MONEY.
Even If He Is Heir to % Million
Estate in France.

Has twenty-nine million eighty
hundrey and seventy thousand dollars
and is starving to death-StarVlng De
cause two Topeka women refuse 10
participate in the fortune. Th1S is tne
condition in which an Oklahoma man
describes himself to be in a letter ad-
dressed to the probate judge OF ShaW-
nee county. He wrote to the JudSe III
the hope of locating his two daugh-
ters one of whom he says was mar
ried in Topeka, February %, of this
year, to Frank B. oJhnson. She was
his daughter Frances. Another
daughter, Helen. married George L.
Smith. Until these daughters are To-
Gated he can not get action on his
huge fortune, for they must be found
to receive their share before any di-
vision is made.
The fortune is in France, according
to the letter, and is the estate OF his
grandmother. Twenty-Five million
dollars is quite q fortune, but then the
old lady had a long time in which to
accumulate it, She was 1o9 years, I
months and Is days old when she
died, and the writer assures the judge
that her death was due. He did not
say anything about it being overdue.
Il was in the old country, France, 19l
and 1912 with my grandmother until
her death came due the letter reads
1t is presumed that she died on
schedule time.
The writer is the same man who
wrote the very peculiar letter to
County Clerk Oscar Swayze a few
days ago in an effort to locate his
daughters. He writes a good hand
but jumbles his construction about
like the famous japanese School Boy.
incidentally he wants money sent
to him to pay his room rent at 1O4 II
West California avenue, Oklahoma
City, Okla, and also with which to
buy clothes and a railroad ticket to
Topeka. He signs his name William
F. Marquis Martin; and says he has to
go without eating five days at time.
Opinion is divided as to whether
the man is insane or that the letter
is a new form of the noted Spanish
prisoner letters.
There are many Smiths and John
sons in Topeka and undoubtedly some
of them at least could very handily
use a portion of the twenty-nine mill
lion and some odd hundred thousand
dollars

NO HASTY ACTION,

Washington. Aug. 2.-Whatever is done
by the Gnited States with respect to the
Philippine islands, is to be gauged by the

civil marriage was gone through at a
registry office.

Roosevelt spent ten minutes in Kansas
City Sunday night on his way east after
his vacation of several weeks in the des-

the Colorado. To the newspaper men and
a number of friends Colonel Roosevelt

and other Indian tribes OF the southwest.
In response to a question, the colonel
said he would be unable to attend the
conference of the Progressive party to be
held in Chicago next Saturday, on ac-
count of his plans for visiting South
America next fall.

SPRINKLE RIVER BED.
Hutchinson Citizens Petition City to

Hutchinson Citizens Petition City to
Stop Dust Nuisance.
Hutchinson, Kan, Aug. 25.-ReSidents
of the Third ward of Hutchinson, liV-
ing along the river front, are circulat-
ing a petition asking the city COM
mission to put on sprinllling wagons
to sprinkle the dry bed of the Arkan-
SaS river.
The river bed is nearly mile wide
It is absolutely dry and has been for
some time. That stretch of dry sand
is naturally a nuisance these windy
days and the folks along the river front
are forced to face a sandstorm daily.
Water Flows Under Sand.
While the Arkansas river is abso-
lutely dry, it is merely because the
rivers water has sunk in the sands
From Hutchinson west to the Colorado
state line the Arkansas river now is
flowing in the sandy underflow.
Water can be reached anywhere in
this valley at a depth of two to five
feet in an ineXhaustible volume. Farm
ers and stockmen along the valley have
been having an abundance of water
this dry summer by merely ramming
pipes a few feet into the ground, no
where in the valley more than five feet
to water.
