LATE NEW IMPROVEMENTS.! A DASTARDLY DEED.
The Benton Transportation Co.,
with headquarters at this place,
during the last few weeks have
made many new and important ad
ditions to the dock facilities here.
In order that there be no delay in
the loading and unloading of the
boats during the night,, an electric
light plant has been installed, and
the docks at night will be made as
light as day, the entire dock being
lighted by electricity—several arc
lights being installed.
A new lumber chute has been
built in order that two boa ts can be
loaded at Once. The two new barges
being built here this season are
completed and will be ready for the
fall trade. Washburn can boast of
the finest dock facilities of any
place along the Missouri river..

Mr. Louis Kesselring informs us
that he has barley that will be ready
for the binder by next week. He
says that it is well filled and the
quality is good. His wheat is fill
ing in fine shape.
It may not be known to every
body but it is a fact nevertheless,
that more grain was shipped out of
Washburn last summer and fall
than any other town in the state.
Those who do not believe this, can
easily look up the statistics.
T. J. Woodinansee, purchased
eleven cars of stock around Wash
burn, and was to load last Friday.
Those from whom he purchased the
cattle, brought them to Washburn
for shipment as above. Some
trouble arose over money matters
and Mr. Woodmansee was not able
to ship on the day intended and so
had the stock, some two hundred
head, placed in the stockyards and
secured a lock and key from the
agent, and to make things safe, he
hired a man to look after the stock
yards during the night. On going
to the yards next morning, he found
that the gate had been opened and
the cattle scattered over the prairie
—the man he found at home in bed.
A search was at once instituted for
the missing stock, and by Sunday
noon, all but six head had been re
covered. The loss was a serious
one, and will fall very heavily on
Mr. Woodmansee.
It is not known who the parties
were who opened up the gates, but
a thorough investigation will be
made, and we hope the party or
parties will be brought to justice
and be made to pay dearly for such'
a dastardly act. A long term in
the penitentiary would fit just such
a case.
