WELL KNOWN IN IJAUTLEV
Francis M Sells agent at Nebraska
City Junction was found lying dead
beside the track near the station Tues
day afternoon Near his body lay that
of a tramp shot in the right eye the
agent having received a bullet in his
right temple Both were dead when
found The bodies lay feet to feet and
were a hundred yards north of the depot
By the side of Sells lay his revolver with
two of the cartridges therein exploded
but no gun was found on or about the
other man
The dead tramp in company with two
others had been hanging about the de
pot and the three saw the agent cash a
check for 9000 and it is thought that
the three attacked him for the purpose
of robbery and that he killed one and
was then killed by one of the other two
who afterwards made their escape One
of the tramps was found by a searching
posse and claimed that Sells shot one of
them and then killed himself

of years He was a steady industrious
young man and had many warm friends

McCOOK RED WILLOW COUNTY NEBRASKA FRIDAY EVENING NOVEMBER 4 1904
The Awl Os Halloween
One of the happiest social functions
that has occurred in McCook was the
Halloween party given by the members
of tbe Awl Os club on Monday night
On this occasion the members of this
organization which is so justly celebrat
ed for the high standard of its entertain
ments excelled all former efforts
The Lawson home which was secured
for the festivities was beautifully and
appropriately decorated The floors were
strewn with rugs and the walls were
hung with flags and bunting while
autumn leaves corn pump
kins and apples were effectively em
ployed for purposes of embellishment
One room contained the trappings we
are accustomed to associate with gath
erings of those supernatural beings who
walk the earth at this season of the year
casket skull clanking chain and all
Another room was artistically arranged
as a gypsy camp A tent filled ono cor
ner A camp fire blazed before it A
fortune teller spread her cards upon a
fallen tree trunk and foretold the futures
of all who dared to ask The entire
house was habited by ghosts and witches
who after the manner of their kind said
no word but conversed by signs and
groans
More than seventy guests and mem
bers partook of the supper which was
served at midnight under the auspices
of the ladies of the Episcopal Guild The
tables were adorned with ferns candles
and ribbons while is a concession to
the eight a huge made
from a pumpkin occupied the center of
each The viands were seasonable and
the service faultless
The hostesses presided with even more
of grace and charm than usually char
acterizes their entertainments No de
tail that would have added to the even
ings enjoyment was omitted The af
fair will long renirtin a pleasant memory
to all who participated
