JUMPS FROM WAGON;
BREAKS HIS NECK

o. X. Thompson, one of the best
known citizens of Alton, Kansas, met
with a tragic death Tuesday. He was
hauling alfalfa hay and in attempt
ing to drive out of the field into the
main road he encountered bad
place and the load tipped. 1t is sup
posed when the load started to tip
over he attempted to jump off on the
other side, but missed his footing
and fell and broke his neck. The
body was found by children on the
way home from school. The load Of
hay was scattered over the ground
where the wagon had tipped over,
but the body Of Mr.. Thompson was
found on the opposite side, which
gives rise to the theory he attempted
to save himself by jumping. From
appearance he had been killed in
stantly and had been dead for some
little time when the body was found.

SHE'S A TOUGH ToMBoY
From Pittsburg Dispatch.

From Plttsburg Dispatch.
Aggie Kelly, 18-year-old Jersey
tomboy, whose capers have won their
way into print several times in the
last month, is missing from her faith
er's barge, moored in the Hackensack
river, off Homestead N. ]. But Capt.
Jim Kelly, Aggie's father, isn't bit
worried about her safety, however,
and is begging the police to keep a
close watch on the town, for he says,
No twon's safe when Aggie's ashore
Aggie first came into prominence
a month or so ago when she fooled
Bayonne police into believing her TO
be quiet, demure, little thing and
then spoiled everything by blowing
cigarette smoke into the face Of one
of the policemen.
Next she was arrested in New Dur
ham for "doing up" two native lads
who stuck their noses up when she
came off the barge. Later still, in
Homestead, she slapped girs' faces
right and left until a few days ago,
they threatened to String her to
tree" and showed her the rope and
the tree, but Aggie's father stepped
up in the nick of time and eouted
her captors.
And it is this last incident which is
believed to be the reason for her abb
sence. For Jim Kelly has told the
police that Agile always has the last
say, the last slap and the last practi-
cal joke land is now off somewhere
devising some trap for the native
Homestead girls.

XII RANCH IS NATURAL
BREEDING PLACE FOR GAME


In talking over the new plan of the
Federal and State game wardens, who
are assisting the XII Ranch in the
protection of wild game it was point
ed out that many old timers could
well remember the time when ante
ope were plentiful on the XII Ranch.
and that for many years after the
XII ranch was acquired. game Of var
ious kinds was plentiful.
1t is the desire of the present own
ers to assist the authorities over a
period of years that there may some
day be enough game for all, otherwise
game of all kinds will soon be thing
of the past and we will all be the
losers.
1t has been custom of this ranch
for many years to feed such wild
birds as locate on the ranch.

HUNT RABBITS FOR

The annual Ebenezer rabbit hunt re-
suited in catch Of AIT Dummies last
Saturday. The contest was won by
the young men captained by Clarence
McKinnis and Byron Babcock. The
leaders of the losing married men
were Arthur Burfield and David

bits bagged was surprisingly large,
considering the fact that they are not
as plentiful this season as usual.
Following the hunt the entire
crowd was served by the ladies of Eb-
enezer. The Dummies were dressed and
taken by truck to Hutchinson where
they were presented to the Salvation
army for distribution to the poor on
