0. 7. WOOD FOR .. S.
MARSHAL

o. T. Wood and John Kelley are
doing the Loop, this week in the
Kelley machine and are visiting the
politicians and good Democrats
about the candidacy of Mr.. Wood for
the appointment to the U. s. Mar
shalshlp. The way things look and
from the rumors going about, it Is
very likely that Mr.. Wood will get
the appointment which he righteous
ly deserves.
The Meade News of last week
speaks very highly of the candidate
in the following article:
80. T. Wood, of Seward county, Is
candidate for the appointment Of
United States Marshal of Kansas.
Ohio is now resident of Liberal,
Kansas, where he has for two terms
filled the Office of sheriff as salts
factorily as any official Seward coun-
ty has ever had. He Is loyal Dem
ocrat and whether the cause has suf-
fered defeat or been crowned with
victory, his support has always been
without question for the cause Of
Democracy.
Everyone in Meade knows o. T..
Wood and the fact that they are anx-
ious that he receive the appointment
was attested by the willingness with
which his petition was signed. No
better man could be appointed to illl
thig- office"

A Bowling Contest

On New Years Eve a bowling
contest was held at the Craig al
leys, between five young men
from Tyrone aud five local men
The contest drew a large crowd,
although the games were being
played merely for the fun of it
and to see who would pay for the
games. IL was evident from the
irst that the Liberal boys had the
fellows from Tyrone outClassed.
At the end of the first game Lib
eral had knocked down Isl more
pins than Tyrone had. At the
END of the second game Liberal
was 303 pins ahead. AT the end
If the fifth game which was the
asst, Liberal stood exactly $50
pins to the good.
For Liberal, Chester Miller
Dowled the best game, making an
average of l55 2 >, his highest
score being 1913. Grille, a broth.
,r-in-law of }, f. Fuest, who is
visiting here from Buffalo, New
York, was next the highest, with
in average of Isl 10. Mason
oowied an average of l43 );
Waisath, 1897 5; O Linn, 1913 s.
The boys from Tyrone bowled
with the following averages:
swami, l40; Peters, 1873 3 5; j.
swami, 12l 3 5; Whitley, lib 3-5;
LAUDER, 81 IS.
Perhaps u return game will be

fallen out of a capsized boat and We're
drowning in the raging waters.
Mr.. Cassidy was a reporter on the
GAINESVILLE Signal and was of two
that went in boat to the rescue of
four others to whose boat the accident
above described, bcfell. The most pa
thetfc part of 1t is that the heroism of
the two who so nobly sacrificed their
own lives. was in vain, for they and the
four whom they attempted to save
were all drowned
The accident happened on Wednes-
day and Mrs Winters only heard of it
this morning when she read the news
in a GAINESVILLE dispatch published in a
Chicago morning paper.
Since learning of the tragedy Mrs.
Winters has unnecessarily attempted
at GAINESVILLE who might give her some
of the particulars. The decentralization
of the telegraph service has, however.
prevented all intercourse between this
town and the Ohio city.
The blow falls doubly hard on Mrs.
Winters. as she and her husband re-
turned from GAINESVILLE only about two
weeks ago. when they were there to
attend the funeral of Mrs. winters
mother. So far as heard from. the
bodies of the six drowned have not
been recovered. OF course 1t will be
impossible with the present condition
of the railroads for Mrs. Winters to get
to the scene of the tragedy.
