A flimsy scheme fathered by the Republican bosses in this state in a desperate effort to elect their candi- date for Governor is being sprung on the members of the Progessive party, which we predict will be readily seen through by the Progressive voters and promptly nippedinthe bud. The proposition in a nutshell is that the Republican politicians will trade Taft for McKinley, in other words, they will agreeto vote for Mr. Roosevelt if their Progressive brethern will vote for McKinley. But the Progressives are too wise to be caught in such a trap.

Bullock and Deputy Pete Carpenter Make Nervy Capture in Corn Field. Sheriff W. J. Bullock and Deputy Pete Carpenter made a sensational |arrest late last Wednesday evening |when they cornered Wat Shevring- ton, wanted in Oklahoma for murder, in a cornfield about 4 miles north of this city and placed him under arrest. Shevrington, who is reputed to be a desperate character was wanted for the murder of Marshall Murphy, of Fairfaix, Oklahoma about three weeks ago when the latter attempted to place him under arrest upon the charge of horse stealing. A reward of $350 was offered for his capture dead or alive. Shervington made his appearance at the home of Elmer Simpson Wednesday morning and offered to sell Mr. Simpson the horse which he| was riding. Mr. Simpson, who had formerly been acquainted with him, | recognized him as the man wanted in Oklahoma, and agreed to buy his horse. Taking him into his buggy Simpson drove within two miles of this city, and let Shervington out in a ‘lane where the latter waited for his return. After arriving in this city, Mr. Simpson notified Sheriff Bullock that he had a bad man located and plan- ned to drive him to near Passaic where Shevrington had planned to take a train and make good his es- cape into Canada. This plan was carried out, Mr. Simpson going back jand paying Shevrington the money and taking him into his buggy drove hole birthright for a mess| tien o his Bidig place inthe ‘conor af very quescanbe ptiags of the cornfield, “The Quality Store” Agents “MUNSING WEAR” 2 Goodyear Glove Rubbers. getting the drop on him and disarm- ing him.

C. E. Robbins, President. Mrs. S. P. Craven. Mrs. S. P. Craven was buried in the Smith Cemetery, 2 1-4 miles from Spruce on Wednesday, at 2:30 p. m. The funeral address was delivered at the grave by Rev. Claude Hanby. Mrs. Craven. whose maiden name was Smith, was born March 6th, 1866. She and Mr. Craven were married February 26, 1887. To this union eight children were born, all of whom, together with the husband, her aged parents two brothers and two sisters survive and were present at the grave side. The minister gave a comforting message but who can comfort the rent hearts of eight children, none of them grown, while mother’s form is slow- ly sinking into the tomb? Speakes-Peters. The lovely rural home of Mr. and Mrs. John Peters was the scene of a pretty wedding on Wednesday at high noon. The youngest daughter, Miss Hattie Peters, accomplished and possessing a rare grace, was wedded to Mr. Roy L. Speakes of Paonia, Colorado. The service was spoken by Rev. Claude S.
