REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS YEAGER TRIAL ENDED Editor E. R. Purcell of the Broken How Chief was made the victim of a practical joke one night recently, when he had an exciting experience with a supposed coal thief, which he will probably not forget soon. For BOine time Mr. Purcell had missed large quantities of coal from a bin adjoining his garage, and try as he would he was unable to stop the leakage or locate the thief. Finally he put an additional timber on the coal receptacle and double locked It with the best hardware he could find. He then Inrormed his wife and mother-In law If he so much as heard a suspicious sound coming from the vicinity of the garage during the night there would be trouble for son.e one. Then there came a night when the editor was awakened by a sound resembling that of shoveling coal Hastily throwing on a bath robe he went to the back porch to listen. Some one was evidently get ting away with the coal, and further mole did not take the trouble to stop operations when the editors voice broke the stillness. He ilia running only about thirty-five miles an hour. The last four coaches, a chair car, tourist, dining car and Pullman sleeper, were derailed The accident occured in u cut so the coaches were not turned complete-j tinctly announced to the darkness ly over. The dining najr left her that he was well acquainted with the trucks and lay on her side. Though .. .u . , the train carried a large number of ",erson ,,sln,t ,ht" 1,,vel lin'1 bout pasf-engers no one was hurt NO 42 five "''ends there would lie all kinds and two freight trains had passed ov- of things happening.

Wyo., June 11, l!10, ended a week ago last Saturdny. The jurv brought In a verdict of guilty in the second degree. The case will he ap pealed. C. C. Yeager Is a son of S. C. Yeager, formerlyof Alliance. While no one is justified in tak ing human life, sxcept In self defense or in derense of those dependent up on him. It seems that from what we can learn that the circumstances lead ing up to the killing of the police man were most aggravating. Yeager had gone into business at Laramie, nnd was carrying a stock valued at $1,500. He had been owing a debt r IS80. A few days before the occur aaea thai branded him as a murderer lie paid 1300, leaving n balance of $IS0. As a matter of spite work, so It Is claimed, the $1,500 stock was at tached for the balance of 1I0. Yeager resisted the execution or the attach Blent, and the policeman was called, and in the fracas that followed, was shot by Yeager. It is claimeil by his friends that he would have been cleared at the trial had it not boat for the prejudice against him on ac count or his being a new man and almost a stranger in the town. James H.
