I awoke last night with severe pains in my stomach. I never felt so badly in all my life. When I came down to work this morning 1 felt so weak I could hardly work. I went to Miller McCurdy's drug store and they recommended Chamberlain's Colc, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. It worked like magic and.

Shipp.eharged with non-support of his wife and child. The case occupied nearly the entire day and was given to the jury late yesterday afternoon. After being out about an hour they brought in a verdict of guiltyT and Shipp was sentenced to a term of fifty days in jail andjtopay a fine of 10 and the costs of the case The defense immediately took an appeal. It seems that a little over a year ago Laura Henry had him arrested charged with bastardy. In order to square this charge he married the girl May 30, 1898.

On July 4, 1S98, the child was born and it is now charged that Shipp never lived with his wife and in no way contributed to her support or the support of the child. He was arrested some time ago on the charge of non-support and the case was set for trial. The county attorney moved that the case be dis. missed but the motion was overruled by Judge Dunn and the case was tried yesterday with the result stated above. Chilocco Commencement.

A good crowd attended the Chilocco commencement last evening and we learn from those who attended, that a good time was had by all. An air of gentility and good humor was manifested in their sport and work, which is not surpassed in our city schools. The evening was given to the little folks with "mother goose" and the children were quite at ease and entered into the entertainment cheerfully and much in earnest. The large room and stage was beautifully decorated and all the surroundings presented a neat and tasty appearance. Tonight will end the program and the exersises will close with a musical and literary entertainment which will be interesting to every one who will attend.

The schools are in splendid con dition under their present manage ment, and are accomplishing won. ders in educating and cultivating the Indian children in all that goes to make up good citizenship. "We must educate or we must perish" applies more forcibly to the remaining red men than it has ever applied to "nny other race, and with their number gradually growing less each year and being hemmed in on all sides by the active hustling, white race the Indian race must prepare themselves to meet the requirements of the hour. These schools can and do lay the foundation for them to do this and they must build on this foundation or soon they will be homeless and will have to move on and give way to the moving, active scheming white man.

The Arkansas City Grays, an organization of alleged base ball players, gave a good exhibition of ball playing at Athletic park yesterday, that is, a good exhibition of very rotten ball playing. The opposing team came from Ponca City, and while they are not such warm players, were sufficiently heated yesterday to turn down the Grays on a score of 12 to 7. The Grays played a star game last Saturday but, like the cow in the story, their good deeds are almost forgotten when we review tlie result of yesterday's game. Of course the boys have various excuses to offer, none of wThich will change public opinion. One thing is certain, if the management is going to continue to change the position of the men for every game, they will never win.

A few more exhibitions like yesterday's will effectually kill the national game in this city. The only feature of the game yesterday was the remarkable playing. We did not suppose for a minute that nine men could play so very poor even by trying. There should be a system of fines for the players and some of them should be given the full limit of the law. If the Grays were playing for a reputation they are certainly in a good way to wm it, the reputation we mean.

The game reminded, one of the- games they used to have between the lawyers and the doctors, with the one exception that those teams used to try to play, while the Grays yesterday seemed to think that instead of playing ball they were there for the purpose of playing horse. This roasting possibly does not look well for a home paper but at the same time it is hoped that it may do some good to the players, who have clearly proven that they can play ball but for some reason or other they seemed too tired. Well they have a right to be tired and it is as it should be; they made the specta. tors tired.

Alexander Jester, Who Murdered Willie Gates of Valley Center, Nearly 30 Years Ago to be Brought Back for Trial. Last night Sheriff Simmons, of Wichita, accompanied by the sheriff from Mexico, was in the en-route to Shawnee, to bring Alexander Jester back for trial on the charcre of murder. Jester is accused by his sister, Mrs Cornelia Street, of Shawnee, of mur- dering Willie Gafrs, of Valley Center. noar Warrenshnrir.

thirty years ago. Mrs Street wrote Sheriff Sinimons nearly a month ago, saying that her brother, Alexander Jester, who was with young Gates on a trip by wagon through Missouri had murdered the young man Gates for a team and wagon and a watch. Jester was accused at the time, but no conclusive evidence was found against him and he was released. When Mrs. Street's letter came to the sheriff here.no relative of the dead man could be found.

A telegram from A. A Gates, a brother, of St. Charles, 111. asking Sheriff bimmons to arrest Jester at once, from informa tion he lud secured through a news paper story of the affair, telling of Mrs. Street's letter.

Jester is now a wealthy and prominent man in the Indian Territory. He had some trouble with his sister's husband, W. B. Street, who induced his wife to tell the sheriff here what she knew of her brother's connection with the murder of Willie Gates. When Gates was murdered, he was on his way to Iowa, and fell iu with Jester, who was going to Eastern Missouri Gates lived at Valley Center, and he and Jester met near Eldora do and traveled on into Monroe county, when Gates disappear ed, ino trace ot lits douv couia ever be found.

After his departure the lady of the house made the startling discovery that the clerica gentleman had transferred nis sur plus effects into a very fine valise, her own property. About 7 o'clock the same night a gentleman passing along Main street was accosted by a stout, well dressed man and asked to-be shown to a good, cheap boarding place.

He was carrying a large, fine valise. After looking over the rooms at Campbell's he decided they were not good enough and said he would look for a private house. It will Ik? worth while to keep an eye on the preacher." Hutchinson News. More Assessors' Returns.
