Consistent with its policy of pass ing the benefits of lower prices which come with the gradual return of nor- mal condition in the drug business, the management of the Kimball Drug stores today announced wholesale re- ductions in the price of fountain drinks and in other departments. Maintaining the lead they have taken in drug store service the Kim ball stores by the sweeping reductions which are now in effect have inaug- urated a price list on fountain service identical with those in effect here be- fore the war. It is said that the Kim- ball store is the first drug store in the state rrive at a pre-war basis. ‘The Kimball stores, the Midwest Pharmacy in the Midwest building on Second street and the Kimball drug company on Center street, announced that the price reductions include Carl- son's Delmonico and Casper Dairy ice creams. The cut prices are effective start- ing today. Here after, root beer, coca cola, Green River and all phosphates will be served at the fountains for five cents, one-half of the former price. ‘This new price will hold only for the fountain service, which is of the best. Carlson's Delmonico ice cream, which is considered the “best in the world” and the Casper Dairy ice creams will sell by the pint for 25 cents and by the quart for 50 cents. A malted milk will now sell for 20 cents while an egg malted milk will be ticketed at 25 cents. ‘Throughout the history of the Kim- ball stores the policy has been to cater to the public, and in the recent cam- paigns for lower prices the company has been among the first to take the step in cutting prices on staple sr- ticles. Although the new prices in drinks apply to the fountains only, tfe clean, sanitary counters with com- fortable stools please the most fastid- ious. ‘Ww. S. Kimball, Jr. manager of the two stores, has just returned from Denver where the same method of lowering prices has been found suc- cessful.

MURDER STORY GETS. HISTORY LOST KANSANS Undertaker Tells of Hearing Dying Man Gasp Name That Is Clue to Crime. CHEYENNE, Ang. 29,—Publication bere Monday of the story of the “Bender case,” most famous, per- haps, of Kansas murder mysteries, in’ the course of which narrative the as- sertion was made that there was no record of what became of the Bender family after their disappearance from their Cherryville farm on the eve of the discovery that numerous murders for robbery had been committed on the farm, brought from L. E. Vio- lett, 2024 Dillion street, Cheyenne, a former undertaker, the information that he prepared the body of John Bender, a son of the head of the mur- der gang, for burial at Naples, IIL, in 1908. The man confessed just before his death, Violett stated, that he was John Bender, but refused to give anv information regarding the where- abouts or fate of his father or sis- ter, although averring that they were not captured by Kansas avengers and summarily executed. The Benders, the dying man said, fled from their farm in a wagon, and took a train after concealing their horses near the railroad station. It is of record that the horses were found there, almost dead from starvation, several days after the Benders disappeared. Violett states that in 1908 he was called to Naples, Ill., in his capacity as undertaker, to prepare for burial the body of an aged river fisherman known as “Fish” Morgan, ani was informed by the physician who had attended the old man during his final iliness that the patient just before death had garped out a confession of his identity. The dying man gave a description of the Bender farm and this Violett carefully noted as it was repeated by the physician. Later Violett visited the Bender farm and checked it with the description, find- ing the latter to be remarkably exact in every detail, including that of the location in the orchard of the graves of persons murdered by the Benders for their money.
