Wichita, Kan., Dec. 30.—Charles Duncan, a well to do cattleman of southwest Kansas, who has many acquaintances and friends in this city who arrived today from Oak City, No-Man’s-Land, tell the last chapter concerning three of the fiendish Kel ly family as follows: City Wednesday night and the town is jubilant over late developments and I believe if the people had had fireworks they «ould have sent up signals of rejoycing. hours before I left they got the news that Bill Kelly and his sister and mother were dead and it did not take ten woman and child in town to knowit. From the day the Kelly horror was unearthed squads of avengers were golloping over the plains looking for “I left Oak About two minutes for every man, the Kelly gang, as they were called down there. Wednesday morning a party of seven left town for due west, with provisions for three days, ex- pecting to take ina curcuit of 100 miles. Going but a few miles they turned south, and in a few hours the wind commenced coming from the south, cold and it blew - furiously. They decided they were about as likely to find the Kellys by going north as south, and turned north. It got colder,and at last, about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, they came to a ravine which offered partial pro- tection, and decided to camp there for the night. While getting the matter arranged one of the men looking up the ravine saw a dugout with a wagon standing about one nundred feet from it. He told the boys to build a fire and stay there and he would go up to the dugout and enquire for the desired parties—the Kelly family. When he was about a hundred yards away he was greeted with a shot which he reported came near him. He fell to the ground and the report called the attention of the others and they im- mediately caught on to the situation and were in a moment on horses for the scene of the battle. They made a big circle around the dugout and saw that a door facing south, in the direction of their intended camp was the only entrance. Getting off to a side they commenced firing at the den and attracted the occupants’ at- tention in that way, and Metcalf, the man who had first discovered the dugout got a chance to run down the ravine and get his horse. When he returned*he disclosed a plan that proved successful. Three men were to go to the dugout from the north |and dig a hole inthe top. The task was extremely hazardous and for a moment there was hesitation in de- ciding, but the gang could be caught no other way and they went at it with determination. The Kelleys, | for as the parties proved to be, com- | | menced firing up at them, but in a/ away, and report success and tell | very short time an entrace in the top | more of the boys to come cut the was made and one of the boys was so badly shot he died from his in- juries.

The various trades un-; ions gave a warning note some time ago, but it did more harm than good inasmuch as it was interpreted asa ruse to keep up wages. Wages here obey the same laws as elsewhere and tend to the actual cost of subsist- | ence. They cannot go lower here i until other things godown. Coal is| $21 per ton, wood $15 per cord, butter 60 cents per pound, and all | other things in proportion. Irepeat it is not a question of wages, it isa question of greater import. The fact is there is not work enough to employ more than half of the men now in this section. If any one contemplates coming here to look for work he must not depend on the assertions of those who are in- terested in real estate; if he does he will get left. Let him write to some of the workingmen and get the facts. Thousands of unemployed mechan- ics—good ones too—are walking about the streets of all these towns, all anxious to work and cannot find it. Ido not say that capital may not find remunerative investment, but he whose capital is nothing but his skill and energy cannot find op- portunity to use it. James T. Harrison. first to appear.

A moment later the son Bill came out, shot in the arm, so that it hung by his side. He was on fire, his air and his old slouch hat burning. With one arm he brandished a revolv- er and defied any one to shoot. Well pleased sith their success, they did not shoot him, but allowed him to make his threats. “A moment later the father ap- peared, a typicial coward with both hands up, begging for his lie. He took the revolver from his son and told the cowboys to come up and take them, and all the while was begging for his life. The first thing the boys proceeded to find out was if there was any more of the Kellys. They looked inthe burning dugout and when convinced that no one could be inside. THE OLD MAN QUESTIONED. “The old man answered questions readily but whether he told the truth or not is unknown. He said the family until lately consisted of four, but the daughter died at the scene of the murders some weeks ago and had been buried near their house. The mother did not want to live there and as they had enough to keep them some time they left. In | answer to questions he said he did not know how many people they had killed. He refused also to tell of his former home and life. He said they could find one mile south- east of their old home the wagon and carcasses of the horses belonging to the murdered people. Hesaid that was in a canyon in the timber. “Unabie to get more information from him, the avengers turned to the boy, who played the brave act, re- fused to tell anything, denounced John L. Wants to Fight. London, Dec. 21.—John L. Sulli- van, now exhibiting in Glasgow, has issued a challenge to Smith or Kil- rain for $5,000 a side. It is generally conceded in sport- ing circles that Kilrain won the fight with Smith and that the American is the better man. It is looked up- on in the light of a moral victory. As prize fights go they are brutal affairs at best, but the fight yester- day seemed to demonstrate that his father as a coward and a fool, and such combats could be more closely said he was not afraid to die and confined to the rules of science than hoped they would kill his father for | ® usually the case.

The trouble with Bob Ingersoll’s “beautiful tributes to the dead” is that they are all alike, and having read one you are familiar with the rest. To a majority of sensible peo- ple Ingersoll’s cut and dried funeral rhetoric has become monotonous. “While the boys were enjoying this their attention was attracted from the father, who took the chance and slipped around and was not [mie until some time later, when SLIPPERS, HOLIDAY PRESENTS Thave the Largest Slippers, Suitable for Christmas Presenta Call before buying anything in that line RESPECTFULLY : MAX WEINER, Stock of Holida q East side square. Money-Making Rules. Rothschild commonly ascribed his early success, in a great degree, to the following rules: | First—I combined three profits. I made the manufacturer my customer, and the one I bought of my customer —that is: I supplied the manufacturer with raw material und dyes, on exch of which I made a profit, and took his manufactured goods, which I sold at a profit. Second—Make a bargain at once. Be an off-hand man. ‘Third—Never have any thing to do with an unlucky man orplace. I have seen many clever men who had not shoes to their feet. Inever act with them; their advice sounds very well, but fate is against them. They can not get on themselves; how can they do good to me? Fourth—Be cautious and bold. It requires a great deal of boldness and a great deal of caution to make a great fortune; and when you have got it, it requires ten times as much wit to keep | it.—Detroit Free Press. —_—_—_——e—— —The car in which Abraham Lin-! coln male the journey from Buffalo to Albany on his way to Washington for his first inauguration is still running onthe Auburn branch of the New York Central railroad.

Smokers will be interested to know that not a thousand miles from Albany there is a firm which makes large quantities of paper for this avowed pur- pose. The plan of operation is said to be this: The paper, on reaching the to- | bacco warehouse, is repeatedly soaked in a strong decoction of the plant. It is then cut up and pressed in molds which give to each sheet the venation of the genuine leaf tobacco. So close is the imitation that expert tabacco men and kabitual smokers have been deceived. At a recent gathering in this city cigars made from this paper tobacco were passed around and dee | clared excellent. Many of those pres- ent deciared the cigars were made from rare brands, and so well was the imitation carried out that one man actually insisted that there could be no mistake about the cigars being genu- ine tobacco. — Albany Express. pean from any benefit and if said claims be not exhi years from the date of the publication of Botice they will be forever barred. 3 J.
