The Children's Complaints

If you children complain that
their eyes trouble them. give the
matter attention before it has gone
too far. 1t is not fancy on the
part of the child. Some strain is
going on which ought to be stopped
AT ONCE. Have the eyes thoroughly
examined, and if any defects exist
l will correct them. The welfare
of child and its progress in it's
studies depends on the importance
you attach to these complaints. If
the trouble is allowed to progress it
will be difficult to check or remedy.
A thorough eye examination may
show the cause of that headache,
nervousness and other troubles.
Come in and have a chat about
your eyes, I am not cranky.
Please call early at the Hotel
Grand in Holly, Sept. 2Sth, 29th
and Both. }. Harry Gay.

STRIKE CASES TO PUEBLO

Attorney F. J. McCarty of La
mar was in Holly Monday and he
informed the Chieftain that he
was successful in his efforts to
have the La Veta strike murder
cases not tried in this county,
and that same would be heard in
Pueblo.
Mr.. McCarty, who has been re-
tained by the defense, contended
that this county, having furnish
ed two companies of militia, was
in a prejudiced state of mind, and
that his clients could not receive
a fair trial here. He preferred
either Las Animas or Bent county,
and Pueblo was accepted as a
compromise.
The prosecution in these cases
will be conducted by Attorneys
Hendricks, Northcutt and CRANKY
Hillyer, while Hawkins and Nc
Carly will appear for the defense

ARREST WHITEsLAvER7

Acting upon information wired
from Kingfisher, Okla, Tuesday
morning, Marshall House and
Harry Pettee arrested a man who
gave his name as Richard Har-
rison. alias Harmon, he being
wanted in the above named town
on the charge of seduction and
white slavery.
Harrison was arrested at a local
rooming house, he having arrived
Monday night from Kansas points
and being accompanied by a
young lady who gave her name
as Gertrude Sinclair. The couple
were taken to Lamar to await the
arrival of the Oklahoma officers,
the girl, however. not being
under arrest.
Harrison visited these parts
about a month ago, he at that
time soliciting funds for the
"Christion Volunteers" an or
ganization with headquarters in
Omaha according to him. He has
credentials showing him to be
authorized to do this work and
others which show him to be
Chief-of-Staf of that body. He
claims that his arrest is caused
by General-in Chief 0. B. Vail of
that body, whose stepdaughter
the girl claims to be, she having
a letter claimed to be signed by
by Mrs. O. B. Vail in which she
grants her permission to travel
with Harrison.
The girl was a most pretty one
and does not seem to be worried
over the affair, She appears to
be about sixteen years of age,
but another letter, same sigma
ture, says that she is past eigh-
teen. She apparently does not
realize the seriousness Of the
charges against Harrison, and
says that everything will come
out all right with their marriage,
which she claims will take place
as soon as possible.
Another message was received
from a Missouri sheriff Tuesday
evening asking that Harrison be
located, he being wanted in that
state on a charge of wife deser-
tion. From all appearances Har-
rison is certainly due for peck
of trouble.

]. d. SKULL DIES

Many tear was shed in Holly
Thursday morning when the an
nOuncement was received that
John Shull had passed away that
morning at ten O'Clock, in Colo
sado Springs, for John Shull was
one of the most popular men
who ever lived here.
For many years Mr.. Shull had
been a sufferer with tuberculosis,
fighting that dread disease with
the same determination in which
he fought life's battle, never be-
coming discouraged, never CIV
ing up hope, but ever smiling and
looking forward.
Several years ago he was mar
ried to Miss Laura Appel. the
union being a most happy one,
and the faithful little woman was
at his side when his soul went
forth to his Maker.
Mr.. Shull came to Holly about
1905, and was employed by the
Land company as engineer, in
1909 he accepting the position as
cashier of the Holly State Bank,
which position he filled until fail
ing health caused him to change
his residence. He also served
three years as town clerk.
Mr.. and Mrs Shull removed to
Colorado Springs some months
ago, and a message to Ray Appel
last Monday telling of his serious
condition came as a shock, people
here believing him improving.
The body will be laid to rest
at Topeka, Kansas, his former
home, and where his father still
resides.
Peace to you, John Shull. May
your sleep be sweet.

ANOTHER ELoPEMENT

Another Mexican elopement
was arranged to be pulled off last
week. this time VIM. Heckethorn
of the H.-B. garage being the
driver of the car that carried off
the elopers.
The same parties that were
mixed up in the previous elope-
ment were concerned in this one,
the Mexican having found his
woman who ran away several
weeks ago, and having forced her
to return to him; she now trying
to get away with another man.
The elopement started at Am
ity, and upon the arrival of the
auto with it's occupants here it
was found that the avenging hus-
band was hot on the trail, so the
elopers made complaint to the
marshal that he was thief, and
that search of his home would
reveal much stolen property. He
was arrested and the search
made, the property being recov-
cred and belonging to Mr.. Erick-
son. the Amity merchant.
Two women were mixed up in
the affair, and both were common
law wives of the first Mexican,
they being sister and each having
a child in her arms, the younger
woman being but a mere child,
claiming to be thirteen years of
age.
Just what disposition is to be
made of this case is not yet
known, though every effort will
be put forth to get Mr.. Mexican
behind the bars for a number of
years. He is at present in the
county Jail at Lamar.

MILITANT PLEADS
WITH ARCHBISHOP
sUFFRAGETTEs FORCE DIGNlTA.
RY TO HEAR THEIR COMPLAINT
ON FoRCl5LE FEEDING.

London, Jan. 29.-Mihtant suffra-
gettes today forced the Archbishop
OF Canterbury, the 'knglish primate
to receive one of their number to
discuss forcible feeding in English
jails.
The women were headed by Mrs
Dacre-FoX. 1t took them an hour to
secure admission to the old Lambeth
palace. They declined to listen to any
attempt on the part of those within to
temporiZe. Finally the archbishop al.
lowed Mrs. Racre-Fox to enter.
Mrs. Dacre-Fox told the prelate that
il he believed torture ever was justifi.
able he could not be real Christian.
She said he had only to use his per.
sonal influence to put an end to forci.
BILE feeding.
The archbishop admitted that he re.
ceived daily protests against forcible
feeding, but declared that he could not
give a definite answer to the suffra
gettes' appeal until he had heard the
other side fully. He continued:
All can do is to promise you my
very earnest consideration
Mrs. Dacre-Fox informed the arch
bishop that she was profoundly dis
satified with his reply. She present
ed him with suffragette newspaper
and also with Miss Christabel Pank
-ursts book and said she hoped his
Derusal Of them would open his eyes
to the necessity Of action.
