REWARD TO BE OFFERED TODAY Sheriff Sammona of Bnflalo Coaaty oa Way la Aatoruoblle to Relieve Kearney County Officers la Parnlt. MINDEN. Neb.. April 3D. (Special Tele gram.) Information that Bert Taylor, the man who so brutally assaulted the sisters of his deceased wife, was at a farm house near Smith Center, Kan., was followed up today by the party of Kearney county officers, who ascertained Taylor had with out doubt been at the place, but ha left a short time ahead of tha pursuers and man aged to change his method of travel in such a way that when later bloodhounds weru used, all trace of him was lost a short dis tance beyond Kensington. Kan. The of ficers believed they would locate Taylor between Cedarvllle and Kensington, but the latest Information today from the sceno of the hunt, which is sixty-five miles from Minden, is that Taylor again succeeded in making his escape from a tight place. The pursuit Is within such close quarters, that the officers regard capture certain. A reward of $1,000 waa offered today by the Kearney Board of County Commissioners and a mass meeting of citizens Is to be held to offer an additional reward for Taylor's capture. This morning a party of Buffalo county offlcera left Kearney In an automobile for the scene of the pursuit In Kansas, where they will relieve the Kearney county offi cers. In the auto were Sherirf Sammona, Fred Kingsley, Al Granger and Charles Lawler. They will make a record run across southern Nebraska and take the places of tha men from Minden who have been in interruptedly on the trail since the alarm waa given. It seems definitely established that Taylor did not make his way to the Rock Island right of way and board a train, which it waa feared he might do. Should he suc ceed in catching a train, this would ma terially change the plana of the pursuers and postpone capture or at least make It NATURAL LAXATIVE WATER FOR CONSTIPATION Bsxsassaamxn SDHMiipifil: ( BBsag " CSSLVBBBsl tx.arsuixa the best mmmm FOR OPENING SALE OF LOTS IN OUR IW ADDITION Friday, Saturday and Sunday, May 1, 2 and 3.
