Ben Jordan, Colored Man, IVclarrd
Nulsnnce Killed Man lit Chad
ron Ten Years A
When given his cholre of lenvlnp
town In a hurry or suffering a nerv
ous bteakdown. or being hung up by
the thumbs or something worse, last
week, Den Jordan, a negro, chose the
first-named penalty, and he has not
been seen or heard of since.
Jordan Is about fifty years old.
wears spectacles, and usually carries
a cane. For some time past It has
been known to the police that he had
no visible means of support, and that
he was a general nuisance, but not
until last week was it decided to take
the action that had been deferred on
account of his seemingly poor health.
Jordan made a practice of accost
ing white women on he street and
calling them endearing names, or
making obscene suggestions to them.
On several occasions he has been
seen In he residence section at night,
looking through windows. Several
times he followed white women to
their homes.
When he lived at Chadron about
ten years ago, Jordan Mllol another
negro whom he found with his wife
one night. There was a hard-fought
legal battle before he gained his lib
erty, the case being in the courts for
about a year.
As the negro was too old o work,
and as he had no money, the police
were in a quandary as to what to do
with him, and at "last, when they be
came exasperated last week, Jordan
was told to make himself scarce In
side of the next twenty-four hours.
cle, two reverse curves were made on
each side, and the walk runs stralRht
In front of the courthouse the entire
length of the building. Another
change was made where the foun
tains will be located. The fountain
will not be located In the center of
large concrete stars, but each will b,
given Just n small concrete base, arc'
there will be no walk connecting
them. This will afford a saving of
nearly $150 In the construction
work.
Now that the walks are completed,
the yard Is being seeded to blue grass
and the grounds are being otherwise
beautified. The trees set out this
spring are doing exceptionally well.

Will Leave Alliance the IAt of Tills
Month
Dean A. T. Eller returned last
week from his eastern trip with the
news that he had been transferred
from Alliance to Worcester, Mass., a
city of 200,000 inhabitants, where he
will be assistant priest of St. Mat
thews Episcopal church, and he will
also be rector at Rochdale. He will
leave, accompanied by his family, the
last of this month, for the new loca
tion, assuming his duties the first of
August.
Change In Court House Walk
A slight deviation from the onu
lnal plan was made In the walk from
the street to the courthouse before it
was laid this week. It had been
planned to run the walk In a perfect
seml-clrcle from corner to corner,
past the courthouse door, but when
the form-laying had been started, it
was seen that the original plan would
not look the best nor be the most
suitable. Accordingly the plan was
changed so the walks Btarted a short
dlitance from each corner, and In
stead of making a perfect seml-clr-

For an Outlui;
The faculty of the Alliance School
of Music are just as human as other
people when it comes to enjoying na
ture, and this week they started on
a si xweeks' outing at Camp Mary
land, on Dismal creek, about 16
miles from Mullen. Miss Burnett de
parted for Mullen Tuesday, to visit
with relatives and friends until the
arrival of the other members. Ralph
Uniacke accompanied her as far as
Antloch, where he stopped off, and
where a riding horse was In readi
ness, and he Is making the remaind
er of the trip to Mullen on horse
back. Mrs. Zedlker will join them
at Mullen Saturday, and they will
then proceed to the camping gronnds.
The camp is only a short distance
from the ranch of R. E. Mahafty, aim
Miss Burnett Informed a Herald re
porter that they intended to eat doz
ens of eggs, lots of butter and oodles
of fresh milk every day.
Miss Jeanette Poole returned to
her home at Crawford Saturday af
ter a few days visit here the guest of
Miss Thelma Fltipatrlck.
Mrs. Everett Bedford, of Mlnatare,
came In Tuesday to visit with the W.
S. Acheson family.
Mrs. S. C. McBrlde, of Casper.
Wyo., stopped off In Alliance Tues
day on her way to Iowa to visit with
friends. While here she was the
guest of O. W. Johnson and family.
Mrs. Geo. A. Hellman departed
Wednesday for Wellington, and oth
er points in Colorado, for a few
weeks visit with relatives and
friends.
Along Laramie, Cheyenne and Big
Horn, where the curbing and gutter
ing has been completed, a majority
of the property owners already have
their parkages down to the grade.
In most cases the parkage has been
entirely plowed up, harrowed and
leveled from the sidewalk to the
curbing, the slope being from 6 to
18 Inches. Blue grass has been
planted, and It will make a very
pretty contrast with the old style
parkages, which were level from the
walk to the curbing.
J. P. McClurken was here the lat
ter part of last week from Spring
Valley, Calif., looking after business
matters and visiting with friends.
Mr. McClurken ia a former resident,
and still retains some farm land, In
this section. From here he went to
Omaha to attend to some business
matters before returning to his home
In California.
Since publishing the item regard
ing Roy Beckwlth's strawberries last
week, it has been found that there
are other berry raisers in Alliance.
Archie Gregory hat on display in
Secretary Fisher's office several fine
specimens, which were grown by him
on his city property. The Herald
maintains that this part of the coun
try will produce Just as delicious
strawberries as any other place, and
these two berry growers have borne
out the theory.
Miss Abble Welbllng and Charles
E. Wilkinson, of Lakeside, were mar
ried at Hot Springs, S. D., Wednes
day, June 23. They returned to
Alliance Saturday, going from here
to Lakeside, near which place they
will make their home on his ranch.
Both these young people are well
known In the Lakeside neighbor
hood and they bear excellent repu
tations. In last week's Issue, in writing the
article regarding the white slave
case, the Herald stated that Mrs.
Philip None was of Italian birth.
This is a mistake, and Mrs. Nob
asks us to make the correction,
which we gladly do. She states that
she is of Swiss parentage.
All boys calling at the Harper de
partment store tomorrow (Friday)
morning will be presented with a
"safe and sane" Fourth of July pis
tol. Mr. Harper has only a limited
supply of these guns, and the boy
who want one should call at the
store early.
IloiiNe Struck by Lightning '
This morning, during the sever
thunderstorm, M. D. Nichols' real
denoe at 412 Yellowstone was struck
by lightning, the extent of the dam
age not being known at this time.
The elecrlc fuse was burned out, and
a hole about the size of a half dollar
was torn through the wall Just be
hind it. The only occupant of th
house at the time was Mr. Nichols
little grandson, the others being out
side watching the ominous-looking
, clouds. The little fellow was not
hurt, but was badly scared and In
tears when the others came Into the
house. It was a prank of fate that
Mr. Nichols was not struck. He had
been standing at the sink, washing,
only two minutes before the bolt
' struck, and had he not been called
' out of the house when he was, thl
' article would have a different bead
ing. Examination of the damage
will be made in the morning.

ternoon, a telegram , was received
from the Hot Springs Commercial
