No Convictions So Far in HeringtOI
Liquor Cases

s. M. Daley was acquitted late
this afternoon.
Jurors don't think much Of spot
ter evidence in liquor cases, accord
ing to the treatment such evidence
is receiving in district court this
term. Q. G. Shipley of Herington
was acquitted yesterday. A charge
of violation Of the prohibitory law
brought against Harry Shipley was
dismissed today when County At
torney Bischoff's main witness did
MT play up to advance notice. Frank
Shipley is a son of U. G. Shipley,
and another son, Claude, is yet to
be tried.
The jury is out in the case Of S.
M. Daley, charged with violating
the prohibitory law, with the likeli-
hood, as the county attorney ad-
united, that Daily will be acquit-
ted. Herington~ city put up more
than 5000 to hire some spoilers to
ferret out violators Of the Kansas
dry laws, but the ferrets have so
far failed to produce results.

SMOKY HILL UP IA FEET
Heavy Rains in Tributary Section
Reported TOday-DO Danger Yet

The Smoky Hill river is up IA
feet, the Sand Springs pumping sta
ton reported today, and the river
continues to rise because of heavy
rains west and up the Solomon val
ley. Flood stage is about 20 feet. At
the present time there is no imme-
date danger. At the Buckeye bridge
south, the river is up higher tha4
it has been for four or five years.
and few corn rows at the edge Of
fields close to the river are under
water, but the river has not left its
banks. Farm lands near Enterprise
south of the river, where the bank
is low, are flooded but this often oc-
ours when the river rises few feet.
The high water mark for the Smoky
here is 81 feet.
Heavy rains at Manchester and
Talmage were reported this morn
ing, and a hard rain is falling at
Salina, Ellsworth and west, at Con-
cordia and Minneapolis and ON up
the Solomon valley, so that the
Smoky is due to continue to rise and
flood dangers may come.
A hurricane at Larned was re-
ported today. The Brundage Car
nival has some shows at Larned as
we'll as here.
This morning the country up the
Solomon valley received heavy
rain. Nearly two inches fell at Min
reapolis and more at Beloit. The
bottom lands all up the SOLOMON
are soaked and great lakes of sur
face water are on the fields Of the
low lands. Corn that is listed is bad
ly injured because Of the standing
water in the rows. Wheat is down
in places but this is not yet SER
ious.

Obituary-Mrs. A. c. spahr

On May FL, 1915, Just as night
was giving place to day, the spirit
of Sister Catherine Spahr took its
flight for that better land where
the weary are at rest. After long
weary months of suffering, coupled
with an heroic fight for life, her soul
was set free and went to be with
God who gave it.
Mrs. Spahr was born Nov. s, 1S49,
in Dover township, York county,
Pa, and died in Abilene, Kan, max
ing her a pilgrim on earth IS years
months, 10 days. She was united
in holy wedlock with A. P. Spahr,
Dec. IS, 1865, in the state of Penn
sylvania. They were most happy in
their marriage relation and indeed
the twain became one flesh. Four
children were born to them, three
sons and one daughter, and one
adopted daughter grew to woman
hood III their home. They are: Char
les and Wilson of Abilene; John of
Chicago; Mrs. Ida Osche Of Hum
boldt, Neb., and Mrs. Grace Walker,
Salina, Kan. Mr.. and Mrs. opahr
came to Abilene in 1885, where
they have since resided. In 1868
Mrs. Spahr was converted and unit
ed with the Evangelical church. She
proved faithful to God and the
church. She was a devout follower
of her Master and loyal member
of her church, being one of the
charter members of the Abilene
Evangelical church, in which she
has labored untiringly since its or
ganization in 1885. Since 1890 she
was an active member of the w. M.
s. and for a number of years iden-
titled with the w. G. T. U. She had
a high regard for ministers of the
Gospel who always found welcome
in her home. Amidst her sufferings
her cheerful, optimistic nature as
serted itself until the very last. Her
appreciation Of pastoral calls was
always refreshing; one always felt
stronger in the faith for having
ministered at her bedside. Her un-
wavering faith in God and Christian
resignation were much in evidence
during her long siege of sickness.
She had her house in order and was
ready for the summons.
A devoted wife, loving mother,
kind neighbor, faithful Christian
has gone from US and will be great
ly missed In home, church and COM
munity. She leaves a husband, five
children, six great grand children,
two great grand children, many
other relatives and host Of friends
to mourn her departure. May the
God of all comfort the bereft and
grant them a happy reunion in hea-
ven. The funeral was conducted
Monday afternoon from the Evan
gelical church by Rev. G. J. schu-
macher, Rev. L. Hanne and her
pastor, H. E. Bower. The Woman's
Missionary society and the W. C. r.
