Up Against Bid of Million.

There are some. fifty stockholders
in Topeka, of the Porphyry Console
dated Copper company, who have had
checked up to, them the question of
whether they shall sell the copper
property which they own in Arizona
for million dollars. or hold it for a

w. A. Neiswanger. who possesses an
interest in the company and who was
one of the men instrumental in the
selling of the stock in Topeka, be-
heves that the stockholders should
hang on to their Porphyry Consoli-
dated for the present.
Copper is very much under the
harrow at the present time, because
Europe and the United States are not
using normal amount Of the metal,
but it is bound to come back" Neis-
wanger says: I'VE have been offered
two and a half million for the prop
erty and refused it, and 1 believe that
We can get it at later date"
Neiswanger has urged other stock
holders to hold to their interests for
the present, because of the faith
which he has in the value of the
property under normal conditions.

PREPARED FOR ROBBERS.
Sheriff Miller and His Force Get Bum
Tip on Bandits.

Sheriff Robert Miller and his entire
force were ready to cope with desper-
ate robbers when they hurried to the
Union Pacific depot about o'clock
Tuesday afternoon. A long distance
telephone call advised them that three
men were attempting to break into the
baggage coach on the mail train from
Manhattan.
The three bandits proved to be
"hobos." One of them was William S.
Parker, better known as Seattle Bill
who has sold papers in practically
every large city in the United States.
A man driving an automobile saw the
fhree-men on the mail car this side of
Manhattan. They signaled him to be
silent. He construed this as meaning
that they intended to rob the mail car
and called Sheriff Miller. The trio ap-
peared badly frightened when the
sheriff and his men appeared, and ac-
cording to the officers, descended
from the top of the car without even
lowering their hands. They were re-
leased after they had been brought to
the court house and given a severe
lecture.

CAN'T HOLD COYOTE HUNT
Attorney Generals Office Refuses to
Allow Event at Studlcy.

f1nOW az otnunSS.
A spectacle billed as Hounds VS..
Coyotes, the biggest sporting event of
the times" Will not be put on near
Studley. Kan, as advertised for Sat
urday of this week.
The attorney generals office has
ruled that altho the proposed contest
does not violate any specific statute,
it is contrary to public policy and
morals to allow an exhibition in which
the principal feature is to see how
long it takes two dogs to track down
coyote and kill il.
James o. McVey. Graham county
attorney, made inquiry as to whether
he can legally prevent the spectacle
and he has been advised in the affirm
ative by E. w. Clausen, assistant at
torney general. A similar contest was
staged at Norcatur, Kan, recently, ac-
cording to McVey. and if the show
continued to make money: the plan
was to put it on next at Wichita.
Private individuals were to be al
lowed to enter fourteen pair of dogs,
paying an entry fee Of So each. A
first prize of $50 and second prize
of s25 were offered for the best time
made by any pair of dogs in killing
their quarry. An enclosure had been
fenced off for the exhibition with one
small way of escape for the coyotes,
according to the promoter. The hand
bills contained the warning that IN
betting or gambling will be tolerated
on the grounds" But Clausen strong
ly suspected there might be gambling
just the same, either on or off the
grounds.
So Graham county citizens will be
deprived of the opportunity of paying
their 81 and war tax to see the most
unique sporting even ever held in
western Kansas"

Topeka in getting a correct census this
year is being urged by Douglas Gra-
