Berrys Arc Freed From Charge of Stealing-
Burlington Colo Sept 19 Ray and
Beach Borry the two boys who survived
the fued with the Dewey ranchmen in
Kansas lastspring were freed this morn
ing by the order of the court and the
charge of cattle stealing dismissed
This town the county seat of Kit Car
son county was considerably excited
this morning when the preliminary hear
ing of the Berrys came up There was
considerable interest in the case on ac
count of ils bearing on the trial of the
Deweys which comes on in about a
month The Berry boys are the most
important witnesses for the prosecution
of the murder charges against Dewey
and his ranchmen who made a sensa
tional trip overland through Kansas
counties last spring and it seemed prob
able that their conviction at this time
might result in the easy acquittal of the
Deweys
The charge against the Berrys who
moved up the Republican river across
the Kansas line into Colorado shortly
after the shooting of their relatives by
the Deweys was that of rustling cattle
from the ranch of Frank Rockefellerand
the assertion was frequently made that
it was all part of a plot to secure the
freedom of the Deweys
Essential evidence against the Berry
boys was lacking however all that was
presented being circumstantial and the
court decided that it was too flimsy to
warrant holding them Denver Timesi
A Change in Superintendents
It is announced that John E Kelley
Lincoln Land Co agent will assume
charge of the McCook waterworks on
October 1st as superintendent succeed
ing Charles H Meeker who has been
superintendent of the plant ever since
its establishment and to whose techni
cal knowledge and skill the present ex
cellent condition of the works is largely
due
Mr Kelley the new superintendent
has purchased the north half of the
Meeker Phillipps building from the Lin
coln Land Co and will move his present
office into the room just vacated by The
Thompson Dry Goods Co which will
also be the waterworks office The

put in attractive condition for the
change and will make the handsomest
office quarters in the city

directors of the McCook Building and
Savings association Monday evening

Make a Daylight Job of It
The fire alarm Monday morning was
caused by the burning of weeds and
trash by an early rising citizen Per
haps it would be just as well to await
the light of day before engaging in such
labor as fires burning as early as 430 in
the morning are liable to call out the de
partment unnecessarily as was the case
on Monday morning
Had a Great Time
The A O U W picnic at Cambridge
Wednesday was attended by some 600
or 700 Workmen and Degree of Honor
people McCook had a large delegation
present in fact they made most of the
happy crowd It was a fine day and all
enjoyed tKe occasion immensely
As a rule a man will feel well satisfied
if he can hobble around on crutches two
or three weeks after spraining his ankle
and it is usually two or three months
before he has fully recovered This is
an unneccessary loss of time for in
many cases in which Chamberlains Pain
Balm has been promptly and freely ap

A Remarkable Record
Chamberlains Cough Remedy has a
remarkable record It has been in use
for over thirty years during which time
many million bottles have been sold and
used It has long been the standard
and main reliance in the treatment of
croup in thousands of homes yet during
all this time no case has ever been re
ported to the manufacturer in which it
failed to effect a cure When given as
soon as the child becomes hoarse or even
as soon as the croupy cough appears it
will prevent the attack It is pleasant
to take many children like it It con
tains no opium or other harmful sub
stance and may be given as confidently
to a baby as to an adult For sale by
