SHERIFF STEWART
IS THREATENED
OVER TELEPHONE
Prowlers Seen Around Home Last
Evening ; Threatening Tele
phone Message Received.
From Thursday's Daily:
Last night while Sheriff E.
Stewart and Deputy Sheriff W.
Young were out in the vicinity of
Weepnig Water the home of the sher-
iff was visited by two prowlers who
ereatlv frightened Mrs. Stewart, who
was home alone at the time.
The parties, who. as far as Mrs.
Stewart could see in the dusk, were'
apparently young men and came up '
to the cornvr of the lot on which the;
Stewart residence is located on North'
6th street and stood there for some
time and were arguing as to advis
ability of going on up to the house
Itself. Mrs. Stewart, through an
open window, was able to hear a part !
of the conversation of the two men.
One seemed to be urging the other to
go up to the door of the house. One
of the parties stated. "You go on up
to the house and scare the devil out
of her you know what he said.."
The man urged to do the invading
had evidently no desire to proceed as
the party speaking first again said.
"He's not here; I know where he is."
This caused Mrs. Stewart to become
quite frightened and she telephone!

in an endeavor to secure Mr. Stew-jf"fd by County Attorney J. A. Cap

some time later that he returned i Tuesday, May 27th with intent to
home and was informed nf rhe v'sit!wOund
of the parties. Evidently the men
had gotten cold feet or had over
heard the telephoning and made
good their escape.
This morning while Mrs. Stewart
wa3 engaged In her housework the
telephone rang and she answered and
was delivered a very threatening
message, "Don't think we are scared;
we'll get him yet."' Attempts of Mrs.

a telephone message from State Sher

name of Hahn. who had been sen
tenced to ten years in the peniten-!

the Result of Severe Fall
Trom Saturday's Daily
Oscar Gapen. Jr., is wearing a
very much disfigured countenance
today as the result of a severe fall
that he received yesterday at the
farm south of this city.
Oscar had let several head of
horses out of the barn and was driv
ing them out when he tripped and
fell and evidently struck the parti
tion of one of the stalls as the
force of the fall knocked him un
conscious and on his recovery he
found that tne right side of his face
wa badly bruised and the effects of
the blow on the nose had been most
severe.
The pain was quite intense and it
was necessary to hurry the injured
young man to the office of a phy
sician, where it was found that the
nose was badly broken and as a re
sult Oscar will have to wear his
face in a bandage for some time. In
addition to this misfortune he also
has an infected left hand and on
the whole is almost on the retired
list as far as doing any effective
farm work for some time.

Well in Nehawka field.
From Thursday's Dally
The territory around Nehawka and
Murray may yet be -'otted with oil
derricks if the plan oT the promot
ers of the variou . unpanies inter
ested plan out and the hopes of the
iliillers of the exp.imental wells
are realized.
The latest phase of the drilling
operation is the intention so it is
stated of James T. O'Hara. who was
the first person to investigate the
Nehawka field for leasing, to have
the company in which he is inter
ested, sink a well on some of the
land th- r I uas under lease.
The re. t well that is being
drilled iiul ceen at a standstill for
the past two weeks, owing to the
fact that the drill used in sinking
the well had become stuck and
which necessitated securing special
machinery to release the drill from
its position in the mass of flint rock
and shale some 800 feet beneath the
surface of hte earth.
Just where the new well that the
O'Hara interests will sink is to be
located, has not been announced,
but it will probably be nearer Ne
hawka as the land leases held by
Mr. O'Hara are largely adjoining
the town and immediate vicinity.
