Mrs. Bertha J. Hazlewood left last evening for Canada, where she will visit for several months with her mother. Dr. Hazlewood accompanied his wife to Kansas City, returning this morning.

Dr. Bragg is confined to her home on account of injuries received from a fall from the sidewalk at the corner of Sixth and Pine street. The corner of the walk at this point is high above the gutter and is dangerous. The public whipping administered to two Chicopee male citizens by the wife of one of the men, judging from reports, was a case, the lady turning when forbearance ceased to be a virtue, far more than bad temper. During the absence of Ester Prince.

Windows are cleared of everything except deadly pyrotechnics. Children stand at the windows and gloat over the assortment lying spread before them in attractive style. Evidently the local merchants don't expect an order such as has been issued by the police in Kansas City, forbidding the use of fireworks that are dangerous. 'The Ladies' Guild of St. Peter's church gave dance last night which was attended by a large number of persons.

Many out-of-town guests were present. The Elks kindly threw their rooms open to the ladies and, as the ball was for the benefit of the Guild. the use of the rooms was a valuable donation. Refreshments were at hand throughout the evening and the daneers enjoyed themselves greatly. SE EN HUDSON CO'S.

Trouble With Socialists at Girard Quieting Down--Cases Continued and May Be Settled. Mayor W. H. Ryan, of Girard, was a visitor in the city today, at district court. He reports that the trouble at the county seat between the Socialists and some of the citizens and farmers has all quieted down.

"The town is very quiet." reported Mayor Ryan, "In fact we hear more about the affair in Pittsburg than we do at home." The cases have all been continued and will probably be settled. There is a possibility of a damage suit being brought by J. M. Wilson, one of the men who was arrested during the "riot" against the officer who arrested him, with the city of Girard made an accessory to the suit. Mayor Ryan stated, however, that he did not think such a proceeding would be taken.

Aid For Stricken Kansans. While some of the prominent Kansang disagree as to the propriety of the state accepting aid from non-residents, no one of any station believes that aid is not imperative. It is a conmendable spirit of independence which prompts the people of the state to declare that Kansas can and will take care of her flood-stricken communities. Various means of raising money for the relief of the unfortunate sufferers have been adopted in localities which escaped the ravage of the waters. One successful method employed in getting money is by benefit entertainments.

Council 15 of the Fraternal, Aid Association holds an entertainment tonight in Red Men's hall the proceeds of which are to be sent to Kansas City and Topeka. The entertainment has been carefully prepared and a good sociable time is assured to all. A Serious Collision. Archie, son of Mr. and Mrs.

Wm. Parkinson, while riding his bicycle on West Third treet last evening, collided with a horse and driven by Dr. Caffey. He was coming out of the alley near his home and in all effort to dodge one of Anderson Sterling's big dray he failed to see Dr. Caffey driving along on the opposite side of the wagon and when he got.

around to the other side the collision ocurred. but it could not be avoided, and no one in particular is to blame. He was knocked from his wheel and considerably bruised and for 8. few moments was unconscious. Dr.

Caffey sprang out of his buggy and picked the lad up from the street and carried him to the sidewalk and administered treatment 8001 that brought him to himself again.

E. Young. the revolver, which had been taken from the pocket of E. E. Brown and which Young claimed Brown tried to draw on him was introduced in evidence.

The defendant was on the stand, and the revolver, which was loaded, was handed to him. Young held it in his hand and in showing how Brown waved it in his hand. darried.li Campbell and Gregory, were in line and both jumped, "Don't point that this way," shouted Campbell. Young swung the gun around and this time it pointed toward Judge Simons, "I guess you'd better lay that thing r'emarked the court, as he jumped from his seat. "We can spare a few lawyers, but be sure and don't shoot the When Judge Simons rendered the decision yesterday which knocked out the hopes of Tom Cogswell as far as getting the job of justice of the peace from Capt.

Morris concerned. Cogswell arose at the close of the court's remarks and said: "Your honor, want to assure the court that this decision, while disappointing, has not caused me to lose any regard for the court. but out the contrary like the man whom your honor once sentenced to seven years in 1 the penitentiary, said when sentence was pronounced, "I thank you." The statement that Morris Cliggitt assisted T. W. Cogswell in the suit of the latter against W.

H. Morris was an error. Mr. Cliggitt represented Mr. Morris in the case, "Well, this is only another illustration, remarked Tom Cogswell after he had come to yesterday, after losing his case and also job as J.

"of the man who tried to enter a law suit without an attorney and got left." Cogswell represented himself in the suit. An attempt was made today to bring about an agreement between the attorney for Williams and the county attorney, by which Williams would plead guilty to some degree of manslaughter, and avoid the necessity of trial, but the compromise could not effected. and after the court had the granted two parties several hours in to try to come which together, the trial was proceeded with this afternoon on the charge of murder in the first degree. This afternoon Judge Simons issued an order providing for the drawing of another jury panel at. Girard, as the old panel of jurors is about exhausted The new panel will be drawn by Justices Crawford and Smith at.

Girard. It has been the custom to select jurors from the court room or out on the street when the regular panel is used up, but there some question as to is the legality of this. This plan was used in the Janes murder trial at Girard, but the county commissioners held up the pay of the extra juror: drawn until the matter is investigated. SPECIAL SESSION CALLED.

Young Gets Off with Compromise Verdict of Assault and Battery--Jury Stood 11 to 1 for Conviction Until This MorningCharles Williams Now on Trial.

R. E. Young, of Frontenac, who has been on trial in district court the past day or two charged with assault with intent to kill upon E. E. Brown, of Fleming, was convicted this morning by the jury trying the case of the charge of assault, and battery.

This verdict. was reached after the jury had been out since 5:30 last evening. Last night the jury took a vote and stood 11 to 1 for conviction. The one who stood out was M. V.

Tubbs, of Girard. Mr. Tubbs refused to look at the matter in the same light the other jurors seemed to. and this morning at 9 o'clock Marion Slawson, foreman of the jury reported that they had been unable to reach a verdict, but would like to' have the testimony the defendant read again. The stenographer read the testimony, and the Jury again retired.

This time they were not out over half an hour, and during that time they agreed upon compromise verdict of guilty of assault and battery. While Young had entertained the hope that he would be acquitted, yet considered that the majority of the jury voted for conviction of the original charge, a penitentiary charge, and finally agreed upon a charge which will mean at the worst only a jail sentence of not over a year. Young getting out. of his trouble better is than he might. The court had not yet sentenced the defendant this afternoon.

P. E. Gregory, of Lyndon, Osage county, who assisted J. J. Campbell in the defense of Young, left for his home on the Santa Fe today.

Williams Murder Case. The case of state vs. Charles Williams was called this morning. Williams, who is a white man, living near Yale, is charged with murder the first degree for shooting Bob Hall, a white joint keeper of Cornell. The crime occurred on Sunday after.

noon, November 23. Williams and Hail met 011 the public road of the camp near Cornell and Williams shot the point keeper with a double barreled shot gun which he was carrying at the time. There was a large crowd about at the time and the shooting was witnessed by a large number. Williams claims that Hall was trying to pull a gun with which to shoot him and that he fired the shot in self defense. B.

S. Gaitskill is defending him. This morning when the case was called, Attorney Gaitskill called the attention of the court to a motion to quash the case, which he argued. He asked the court to quash the case on the ground that the information was defective and did not charge the defendant with the higher offense of murder in the first degree, although it might charge assault. The court couldn't see it that way, however, and overruled the motion.

Gaitskill then made another effort to stave off the trial by showing that copy of information served upon the defendant and that on file were not exact copies, oll account of a couple of errors of the stenographer in copying it off. The errors were so slight that the court refused to quash the on ground. case "I don't remarked the court. "That under the Australian ballot law a fly speck on ballot would invalidate it." "That may be true," replied Gaitskill. "but if could shown that the fly speck were put there for the purpose of a distinguishing mark it would invalidate it." Gaitskill entered an objection to the defendant being arraigned however on this account.

The clerk of the court and sheriff were called to the witness stand, and they testified to the effect that the paper served on the defendant was a real copy of the information. Gaitskill objected to this proceeding, but the court overruled his objections. At three o'clock this afternoon the William's murder case was called and continued until in morn ing. Fine Rosa. Northeott murder case continued until next term.

was At four o'clock the case against E. Milliken upon the charge of stealing horse and buggy was taken up. ISRAEL BROS. Hour Sale FOR FRIDAY From to 10 a. m.
