Plot by Religious Cult to De-

Kimball Frustrated
by Sheriff.
Think Members Insane


Cheyenne, Wye, Oct. 15.-Kimball,
Neb., is a wicked city, therefore it
should be destroyed by fire.
Sounds like a proclamation from
the Old Testament, but it's only what
group of eight religious fanatics
living near Kimball thought about it
when they chose Sunday on which to
perform what they deemed their in
eendiary duty.
If they hadn't been so loudly as
sertive about it they might have
started something, but news of their
intention reached the ears of Sheriff
Swanson of Kimball. When he start
ed to take the matter into his own
hands, the eight alleged fanatics shut
themselves up in stone house north
east of town, in which house Tom
Garon and his mother lived, together
with a man named l.. Richardson.
All three are acknowledged leaders of
the cult
This stronghold proved as impreg-
nable to the sheriff as Eddyville
prison did to federal officers a few
days ago. and so he detailed five
men to intercept any attempts at
escape. and sent word to Sheriff
George Carroll of Cheyenne, 75 miles
away, to join him in kimball with a
supply of tear gas. Before this could
be accomplished, however, word came
that after an all-day session the
fanatics had been caught when they
tried to leave the place in an unlight-
ed car about 10 o'clock that night.
Garon, about 80 years old; his
mother, 60, and Richardson. are in
sane, the sheriff says, and steps
probably will be taken to place them
in an institution. The other five are
merely crazy on religion, the officer
believes. One of them is reported to
be a shell shocked ex-soldier.
