Border has lived with Mr. and Mrs. Casteel for some time but Mr. Casteel says he never had occasion to doubt his wife's faithfulness but now has proof that she has been unfaithful to him for two years or more and he secured a revolver Tuesday intending to go Arkansas City and kill both his wife and Border and get his boy which the couple have in their possession.

Mr. Casteel sold his property on King street a few weeks ago and his wife got 8200 of the money. This Casteel claims he will get besides revenge. Casteel was arrested Tuesday before he got out of town but says he will yet go after the runaway couple and get revenge. SHOT BY A HOBO.

A Wounded Man liroaght From Oaeneiuo Claims to Have Ueen Shot by a Tramp. A young man giving his name as John L. Turner was brought to the Santa Fo hospital yesterday from Quenemo suffering from a bullet wound in his right leg above the knee. Turner says he was shot by a tramp while in the yards at Quenemo Tuesday night. He says he was at the Quenemo depot waiting for a train when a stranger came up to him and engaged him in conversation.

The fellow, who he believes was a hobo, asked him to go down to some box cars near by. The tramp walked along beside Turner for a little way, then dropped back. As Turner turned around the tramp pulled a gun. Turner saw the man had the drop on him and started to get out of the way but the tramp fired, the ball striking him on the inside of the right leg where it lodged. The tramp made nis escape.

Turner aroused the station agent and a search was made for the tramp but he could not be found. Turner says he does not know why the fellow would shoot bim unless for his money, and at the time be was shot he had only 65 cts upon his person. Turner came down on the train Tuesday morning from Quenemo and is now at the Santa Fe hospital. An effort will be made this afternoon to remove the ball. Mr.

Turner says his parents reside in Kansas City. Odix, Kansas Beggs Mf'g Co. Sirs: Ihavensed your SYRUP the past week for La Grippe and can cheerfully say, it is a sure cure for that disease; as it cured me in a short time, and will cure others if they will use it faithfully. F. Shadle.

The supreme court decided Saturday that the division of school district, No.

1, this county, was illegal. The above information is startling to a portion of Hayes township citizens. It will be remembered that more than a year ago certain patrons of school district No. 4, which contains the village of Norwood, asked Supt. Gentry for a division of the district and establishing a new district with a new school house at Norwood.

The county superintendent refused to grant the request and the board of commissioners was appealed to but the superintendent's decision was sustained. After a few weeks the board granted the petitioners another hearing which resulted in the division of the district. The patrons in the new district at once held a school meeting and voted bonds to build a house while the "antis" consulted attorneys. The latter took the case to the supreme court from which tribunal the opinion as above stated, was handed down. Just what course the patrons of the new district will take next, is not known.

According to the opinion just handed down the state holds bonds voted by a district not legally a district. District No. 1 has two school houses a mile and a half apart which, of course, is one too many and a mile and a half too far apart. WILL BEGIN NEXT MONDAY. J.

A VERY SUDDEN DEATH. "Uncle Billy" Church Drops Dead at his Home at William Church died suddenly at his home at Williamsburg about 7 o'clock yesterday morning. William Church was the aged father of Sheriff Church and Grocery-man W. H. Church, of this city.

His sudden death was a shock to these gentlemen, as their father, although failing, was not considered seriously ill. He was 80 years of age and naturally was failing. The particulars of the death are not known but it is supposed Mr. Church dropped dead. Messrs.

and Mesdames W. H. and D. S. Church went out to Williamsburg on the 9 o'clock train.

Wm. Church, deceased, was born in Greene county, on December 25, 1819. In the latter part of the 50's he moved to Monroe county, Ohio, from which place he moved to Kansas, coming here 30 years ago. He was well and favorably known over the southwestern part of this county and all addressed him as "Uncle Billy." He leaves five children, three boys and two girls, all of whom live in this county except a boy, A. who is a civil engineer.

Miss Lucy lived with her father and Ruth is the wife of Jack Hamilton, of Williamsburg. W. the groceryman, and D. sheriff of this county, are well known. The funeral will be held Thursday afternoon at the Central church.
