A Mother and Child Killed in the Race
For a Home in the Kickapoo.
—Literally Torn To
Pieces.
From ti«' Shawnee Chief.
There is always some sorrow with
every joy, either before or after.
Thursday at 11 o'clock a man by the
name of Valchester, his wife and
child aged about 5 years were happi-
ly waiting on the border of the Kick-
apoo country, eager to make the
race for a home. They entered the

Mrs. D. W. Hardiug went to Hen-
nessey this morning to visit her moth-
at the old home.
J. O. Truitt returned from the i i„ 1
many contradictory stories in regard
r" to the bloody affair, the WAVE must
acknowledge that it knows nothing .
concerning the affair for sure: hence,
have come to the conclusion not to
attempt to write any report what-
ever. Bond is not seriously wounded,
but is confined to the house.
Kemper was taken in charge by
the sheriff and guarded during the
night; but we understood no com-
plaint has been filed against him by
anyone, which, of course, leads us to
believe the affair is hardly worth
the attention of anyone. If the af
fair is of no consequence to the peace
officers we are quite sure it is not to
the Wave. Let the boys fight and
shoot all they want to, but let no
man escape who has dough.
Tomorrow night being Memorial
evening, "Our Club" will meet this
week on Friday night.
Owing to the inclement weather
t he attendance at the different revi-
val services was not as large as usual.
Put on a red white and blue badge
tomorrow. No day, except the na-
tion's birthday, is so appropriate on
which to adorn ourselves in the na-
tional colors.
Tomorrow is Memorial day and the
ceremonies will be under the auspic-
es of that august corps, the G. A. R.
K very body should help them make
the day a patriotic success.
Follow the procession to the city
park tomorrow and hear the ringing
speeches to be delivered by Enid's
best orators. Put on your most pat-
riotic appearance and join in the
singing.
Charles Setford, of Kingfisher, is
in the city today, shaking hand*

fisher a little drouthy at present, but
says there is still some chance for
wheat.

Hon. David Newton Caldwell re-
turned from a visit to his old home
in Wellington, Kansas, this morning.
He reports the storm of yesterday
the worst in the memory of the old-
est inhabitants, in force, heat and
sand. The air was simply half real
estate and it drifted like snow in the
streets of Wellington.
The Discovery Saved His Life.
Mr. G. Cailouette, Druggist, Beav-
ersville, 111., says: "To Dr. King's Nt w
Discovery I owe my life. Was taken
The Storm.
The storm in Enid yesterday was
bad enough, but it seems that the
farther north it rushed, the stronger
it became. The like of it was never
seen in Kansas, outside the realms of
a cyclone. A locomotive was blown
from the track and whole home-
steads, old oaken buckets hanging in
the well, and orchards flew through
Wichita at the rate of 100 miles an
hour. "Dynamite Dave," of the
Wichita Eagle, describes the storm
in the following graphic , manner:
"WHERE THE AIK WENT.
Yesterday about 3 o'clock in the
afternoon a man stood on the corner
of Main and Douglas. His eyes were
full of dirt; his ears were wadded
shut with sand; his teeth were stuffed
with dust. To the south of him
dark vista of dirt, sand and gravel
opened up; to the north there was
perpective of loose soil; to the west
a tangle of disengaged real estate,
while to the east the landscape
looked as though it had been pulled
through a rat-hole and then clubbed.
This man watched the air and dust
and general conglomeration of both,
and jabbing his hands down into his
pockets philosophically, he said:
'Howling Lucifer! Where is all this
going?' He had a right to ask it.
The air was certainly going some-
where and it evidently was about two
days behind its engagement from the
way it passed through the town. Un-
like an ordinary decorous Kansas
zephyr the wind yesterday didn't
slip over the country with a gentle
sigh. It went further. It got down
on the ground and rooted its nose in
the bosom of the United States of
America.
The family were strangers to every
one and were in line only a short time,
were in the front ranks and at the
start took the lead. Their team
went dashing through the timber
and upon reaching the open prairie
the horses went headlong into a deep
cut and tearing loose from the wagon
ran a few rods and stopped. The
child was in its mother's arms clasped
to her breast. Both mother and
child were thrown from the wagon
and before they could regain their
feet horsemen were upon them and
their bodies were torn and mangled
beneath the hoof of the horse, crush-
their bodies to a mass. They
laid there writhing in the last throes
of death, but the horses that carried
their life's blood on their hoofs, sped
onward; on over the green prairie
leaving the broken-hearted father
and husband alone with his dead and
his God.
There, on tlic prairie, cold and gray.
Lifeless, but beautiful, they lay:
And from the sky. serene and far,
A voice fell like a morning star;
Saying, They're dead.
Alone! His life's happiness crushed
from him as by a shot from a gun,
the sorrowing husband lay beside his
loved ones and as thousands of happy
people ttaked their claims the spirits
of this mother and child lifted the
veil and entered the realms of the
great unknown world. They entered
a home where life is everlasting.
How little did the wife know she was
rushing to her death. That innocent
child knew not the blow that caused
its soul to be returned to its maker.
The poor man lay prostrated with
grief; lying on the ground beside his
departed ones, he was found by our
irformants. The bodies were tendet-
ly cared for and placed side by side
in the wagon and the poor man
started on his homeward journey. In
broken sobs he said he had come
from Kansas. Thus we leave them,
the dead to be consigned to the earth
and the broken-hearted husband to
spend the rest of his days in mourn-
ing foi those who have gone before.

Persons who sympathize with the
afflicted will rejoice with D E. Carrof
1235 Harrison street, Kansas City.
He is an old sufferer from imflamma-
tory rheumatism, but has not hereto-
fore been troubled in this climate.
Last winter he went up into Wiscon-
sin, and in consequence has had an-
other attack. "It came upon me a-
gain very acute and severe," he said.
"My joints swelled and became in-
flamed: sore to touch or almost to look
at; Upon the urgent request of my
mother-in-law 1 tried Chamberlain's
Pain Balm to reduce the swelling and
ease the pain, and to my agreeable
surprise, it did both. I have used
three fifty-cent bottles and believe it
to be the finest thing for rheumatism,
pains and swellings extant. For sale
