Mr. Crouch still has a 400 acre farm in that conntry which is worth (16,000. Eight years ago Mr. Crouch was a young man without capital, starting new in F ord connty. Prior to that he had been in cattle business with his father and they b.ad lost everything, The young man bad one horse left to stock a farm with. He got some and, whioh was cheap then, got mar ried and started iu with a lot of grit and determination to succeed ; Ford county farmer. Dunne the last eight years the money be has made is equal to a sal ary of $1U00 a year above expenses, This is a- pretty good Ford county record.

M. OFFICIAL FORECASTER Ceo. T. Todd Gave the Weather Trip to tlss lor Famous Air Ship Flight In the famous air ship flight of Curtiss from Albany to New York, the time wai selected on the advice of George Todd, a' former Dodge CAiv man. An Albany paper states this fact as follows: "When Glenn H. Curtiss received ' his check for $10,000 from the New York World for successfully flying . jrom Albany to New York, the city of (Albany was paid a big compliment. In speaking of the trip Mr. Curtiss This afternoon at 4 o'clock Miss Bertha Dunlap and Mr. Earl Lord were married. . The wedding was a simple borne affair, only the relatives of the bride and groom being pres ent. The rooms of the Dunlap home were beautiful with their decorations of yellow and white daisies. Tbe fire place in the living room, in front of which the bride and groom stood, was a mass of daises and ferns Above the mantel was draped a lov er's knot of white tulle, covered with greenery. From the beam ceiling and electric lights hung festoons of daisies. Rev. Howard Kerr, of Park College, a former college friend of both bride and groom, assisted by Rev. J. H.J. Rice performed tbe ceremony. The ring eeavice was used. The bride was gowned in white marquisette, trimmed with Irish cro chet. Her going-a-way gown was a blue tailored suit with blus turban to match. The bride is the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Howard Dunlap and has grown to womannood in Em poria. She has been graduated from tbe Emporia High School and from the College of Emporia. No young woman in this town has more of the town's good will on her wedding day than Bertha Dunlap. She has a wide acquaintance, and has endeared her sell to everyone by her thoughtfulness and kindly consideration. Added to her sweetness of character she is en ergetie and capable and her little every day kindnesses to the people she meets are i n numerable Tbe groom at one time attended the College and for the past few years has held a responsible position in the Emporia National Bank. He is one of Emporia's best yonng men who, during the years of bis res- Cur idence here, has shown his ability in business, his fine manly character in his daily walk and his faithful adher ence to the best things in life. The out-of-town guests for the wed ding were: Messrs. and Mesdames Howard Kerr, Parkville, Mo; Lord, of Dodge City; Nelson and King o! Burlingame: Mesdames T. E. Ran kin, Ann Arbor Mich.; Hayden Nel son, St. Louis; A. A. Baker, Kansas City; Huffman and Graham, Peabody; Misses Es telle Baker, Kansas City Messrs. Carrol and Fred Lord, Dodge ! City.- Emporia Gazette. At the opening of the June term of District Court here Tuesday, Jack Lewis, and Chase and Meyers, the trio who robbed the Nichols & Ed wards Btore at Spearville pleaded guilty. They are unknown here and claim to be from three different states Missouri, Iowa, and Tennessee. Frank Young, another tourist, who robbed the Locke residence here, al so pleaded guilty. Young and others will be sentenced later in the term. "Stray" Waddell the alleged Ford bank robber, was brought into court Wednesday morning. His attorneys who were to be here from Arkansas City failed to oppear. "Inquiry brought the report that they were in a murder trial in their own county. There has been a report here that these attorneys were not likely to de fend Waddell, so that this was not unexpected. Judge Finley allowed the case to be continued until this morning. Waddell secured the ser vices of J. M. Kirkpatrick, of Dodge City, and the case began this morn ing. The Wells case will probably be called again following the Waddell oase. On account of the absence of Wells' attorney this morning, tbe court appointed Mr. Kirkpatrick to represent him. After a conference with Wells, Mr. Kirkpatrick stated that if Wells was required to plead at once one way or the other, he desired to Dlead not euilty, This started IT - W W some speculation among the specta tors, as to whether or not Wells will really stand trial, and created con siderable interest, because, as the money has been returned the going to trial would indicate that some one besides Wells is to be implicated in the case. The general opinion, how ever, seems to be that Wells will merely wait until his case is called again, and his attorney is present, when he will plead guilty.
