Nine Jointiet Arrested Yesterday xclllng Tim There Last XlgJit Several Encounters. Special to The Tribune Iola, April 11. There is considera ble excitement here today over the closing of the joints last night. Miss Southard, temperance evangelist of Win field, has been holding meetings here for soiue time and in company with other W.

C. T. U. women visited different joints teu days ago but nothing radical was done. Some evidence was secured, however.

The ministers of the town together with the W. C. T. U. have been assisting Miss Southard in the work and yesterday complaints were filed under the search any seizure law with the county attorney against nine of the jolntistsand warrants were issued in district court.

They were served last night and the jointists immediately gave bond. The temperance people had guards posted all day yesxerday watching the joints with the inten tion of following them If they tried toget away with their liquor and fixtures before they were seized. Most of the proprietors, however, succeeded in getting their goods out. Drays were in demand last night and loads of beer cases and fixtures could be seen going in all directions. TThe temperance people had a committee composed largely of ministers on the streets following the drays to secure evideuce as to where the contents were stored.

Friends of the joints resented this and several encounters ensued. Rev. Merry of the Free Methodist effurch was struck on the head inflicting a slight wound, one man was struck over the head with a club and another was knocked down and kicked seriously iu tneside. Excitement ran high for several hours and it was late in the night before it finally died down. The temperance people are very determined today that every effort will be made to prosecute the whiskey men.

They claim they have forty counts altogether against them for selling booze, and some very serious charges will be brought fur assault as a result of the trouble last night. Everything is dry and tight today, but the joints have been closed up before, several times, and it is a question whether they will etay closed after the agitation dies out.

ABOUT "COMPANY New Military Bill Will Pat MUllla Companies Under Federal Con-troI-Khaltl Uniforms.

The Tribune reporter had a chat with Capt. Light of Co. this morning and secured some interesting military news from him. There have been several changes in the official lineup of the company re cently, in addition to the election of a first lieutenant at the last meeting, and the new appointments were an nounced last night. The officers of the company now are as follows: Capt.

R. A. Light. 1st Lieut. Roy Griswold.

2nd Lieut. Lee Woods. Sergeants Jas. Gray, O. G.

Vick- ery, narry Light, C. A. Brown, V. P. Hickey, Alva Williamson.

Corporals C. E. Wilson, nenry Howke, Franklin Williamson, Oleon Hickey, Henry Hemphill. The big event for the boys this year, as In every year, Is the annual state encampment. It is to be held about the middle of August either at Topeka or Ft.

Riley. The place will not be determiued until the fate of the military bill which is now before congress, is Known, cjapt. Lilgbt had a copy of the bill, and he says its passage will mean much for the company. Its most radical feature is the put ting of the militia under federal con trol. If the bill passes, the company can be taken to any place TJ.

S. regu lars can be taken, while under present conditions they can not be taken out of the state. The bill contains a promise, however, that the militia cannot be kept out for longer than ninety days. If the bill is passed, the national government will furnish sup plies and the' officers will get their commissions from the federal instead of state government. Capt.

Light says he thinks the com pany will be furnished with the Krag-Jargeson rifles, the regulation army rifle instead of Springfields the company now uses, and also that they will Tget army overcoats and other supplies the state does not furnish, and additional armory money. Then in addition to state encampments, as the present system calls for, will come inter state encampments at military ports, which means that the next en campment will be held at Ft. Riley if the bill becomes a law. A special provision of the bill is that a school for militia officers will be established at Leavenworth. Officers will not have to attend but they will have to take examinations.

The company is in a very excellent conditional present, and has an enrollment of 48, four more than when organized. A good deal of new material has beeu taken in lately, among them being a member of the 44th Vol. Inf. The company is planning a number of things. The first to be executed will be, perhaDs, the secur ing of Khaki uniforms.

Capt. Light has written to a number of supply houses for hgures. They will cost about $3.00 apiece. The Khaki uniforms are the fatigue uniforms worn in the regular army and look about as nice as the regulation suits. Anoth er thing the company has in mind is an armory which is sure to come in time.

An armory up town would help to secure a much better attend ance. The company meets every week, although the law only requires a meeting once a month, and is said to be very well drilled.
