Leavenworth, Kan., last Thursday ona full pardon trom President Taft, where he was serving a five years sentence Imposed by Judge Smith McPherson on Nov, 6th, 1907. Cap- tain Tygard’s friends in Butler, Kan- sae City and throvghous the state have been making a quiet but persiat- ent effort for some time to secure his release, and {¢ {s understood that the Federal officers of the Depart- ment of justice interested themselves in hie behalf. Captain Tygard went to St. Louis, where he will make his home with his nephew and niece, Ray ‘McCulloch and wife, who Iived with him fn his affluent days. He is 74 years of age and has been in bad health and confined to the prison hospital during all of his confine- ment. Mo. P. is Double Tracking. Through private sources we learn- ed that the Missouri! Pacific have let contracts to double-track their rail- road from 8+. Loufs to Cole Junc- tion, the point where the River Route intersects the main line, The same authority stated that actual work on it had begun at several places along the line. This substantiates she often time repeated rumor that the River Route 1s to soon become the main line for the heavy freight traffic.—Boonville Democrat, Public Sale. -I will eell at public auction at my residence, 8 miles west of Appleton City, 1% miles north and ¥ mile east of Pleasant Gap, on TUESDAY, APRIL 27, 1909, ‘the following deacribed property: 8 Heap Horses anp MULE, con- sisting of @ span of black brood mares, 7 and 8 years old, sound; 1 bay mare to drive single or double; 1 mule, 4-years old, 16 hands high, sound; 1 Kentucky Jack, 14hands}The Polk county courthouse here high. wae struck by lightning and slightly 20 Heap hs sated ‘nik, 4 damaged. eon windows in milch cows, 8 are stores were blown in and cellars were ‘yearling steers, 4 ‘steer and 4 helfer | flooded.

The x 17 atoc Ade C00, Wires are Anéther Big Project Rumored, It {s reported that Mr. Warnsing, the present owner of the old Loeb ranch, east of town, will begin work in a few days ona levy which, when completed, will surround his entire holdings {n the bottoms, thus mak- {ng him doubly sure that his land will not be overflowed by waters from the Marais des Cygnes, reports the Review. Mr. Warnsing hae not been seen in regard to the above, but our infor- mant stated that the work would be started as soon as enough men and teams could be secured to justify. The big drainage canal passes throngh Mr. Warnsing’s lands, and during the past few months, he, as well as a number of other enterpris- ing farmers; has used a large quan- tity of tiling on his farm, and, with the protection the levy would afford, there fan’ any question but what his holdings would be “high and dry” 80 far as overflows are concerned.

Conkling of this city came very near being killed by light- ning this morning at her home on South Spring street.

Her shoe was liter. ally torn in pieces and her foot pain- fully brulsed very much as if {¢ had been struck by a sledge hammer. Mrs. Conkling escaped death only by having turned her head and body as she was placing some dishes on a table and had she been standing erect the Hghtning would havestruck her head.—Nevada Mail, Lightning Kills 24 Horses.
