One of two men in the crowd trying yesterday afternoon to get a glimpse of the Chester trial was the victim, late Wednesday night, of a hold-up in a cigar store at Eleventh and Cherry streets. The other, according to an identification made a few minutes afterward, was one of the two men who had committed the hold-up. Two unmasked and armed white men entered the store. Michael RICH, owner, was robbed of $80; a brother of RICH's persuaded the bandits to allow him to keep the $40 he had and Ralph DeFEO dropped a roll of bills amounting to $90 when he arose from his chair. The robbers scornfully refused to take the $3.50 in small change in DeFEO's pockets. As DeFEO leaned forward on tiptoe, the better to see over the heads of the crowd yesterday, he unconsciously placed his hand on the shoulder of a man in front of him to help keep his balance. The man glanced around and DeFEO recognized one of the bandits. The stranger immediately left the crowd and DeFEO followed. The man walked north to Second street, west on Second to McGee street, where he turned south. At Missouri avenue he turned east and DeFEO met Sergt. Frank DOWD and Patrolman Matt CLARKIN, of the police motorcycle squad, who arrested the man. ====================================================== (I have no connection with these families but I'd appreciate knowing if you found this posting helpful.) johnobrien@kc.rr.com ====================================================== neirbo10 Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Two men riding backward astride horses, preceded by a man pushing a wheelbarrow in which a fourth victim sat smoking a cigarette, the quartette followed by a shrieking mob of small boys, was a procession which created no little interest as it went down Main street last night. The men on horseback were compelled to constantly keep their necks twisted half way around so as to see where their horses were going. The man with the wheelbarrow had to keep going at a lively pace to escape being trampled upon by the horses directly behind. Upon the backs of the riders of the horses were large white muslin capes on which were written: "We bet on Bryan --- and lost." The man pushing the wheelbarrow needed no sign. Everybody knows what such an employment means in these days of eccentric election wagers. Occasionally the manipulator of the barrow would yell: "I bet on Bryan. That's why I'm wheelin', and the drinks I'm buyin'." The three luckless Bryan supporters were James O'CONNOR, William BURNELL and R. L. CLARK. The first two rode horses. They bet with Henry CHABLE, Chet DOUGLAS and Roberts COMBS, respectively, that McKinley would not be the next President. All the young men live in the vicinity of Eighteenth and Vine streets, and the losers were to do as they did in the procession last night, starting from Eighteenth and Vine and finishing at Eighth and Main streets, a distance of over two miles. DOUGLAS and CHABLE did not accompany the party down town, leaving their co-partner, COMBS, who rode in the wheelbarrow, to see that the others carried out their part of the contract. ====================================================== (I have no connection with any of these families but I'd appreciate knowing if you found this posting helpful.) johnobrien@kc.rr.com ====================================================== neirbo10 Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Author: JohnWOBrien Surnames: AGNEW, CORNESS, DRIPPS, ELLIOTT, ENGTON, GALLAGHER, HOLMES, MANGEN, O'DONNEL, ROBINSON, TORBET, WARD Classification: biography Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.missouri.counties.jackson/6791/mb.ashx Message Board Post: "The Kansas City Times" (Missouri) Wednesday, January 3, 1872 POLICE PICKINGS. The Shades of City Life as Revealed in the Police Court Yesterday. Monday morning is generally a prolific day for items and evidence of that cast of character that partakes at once of the sad, the sorry and the ridiculous, but when that Monday happens to be "New Years Day," and the close of a week of jollity, debauching and holiday, surely no one can be surprised that the City Recorder should have a harvest of petty crimes on the MORNING AFTER NEW YEARS. There was a slight variation of common drunks yesterday. For instance, there was Miss Maria ENGTON, a "flab-sided," brazen piece of baggage, with frowzy hair, and attired in habiliments that would disgrace the "wiper" of a locomotive. Maria had left her man's bed and board in "Happy Hollow" to wander forth like a bee, sipping the honey where her unchaste mind might dictate from the flowery kingdom of intoxication. Officer DRIPPS found "Riah" walking unsteadily along the railroad track, and brought her to her happy home. Her excuse this morning was HER NEW SHOES PINCHED HER FEET, and it being leap year, she had taken the liberty of asking herself to indulge --- which indulgence cost her just $5.75. Then there was Tom MANGEN. A nice youth is Tom. He married a little widow and a full-stocked saloon at the corner of Main and Twentieth streets, about nine months ago. Tom has distinguished himself often as CHAMPION WIFE-BEATER, and a full-blown sunflower on a "high." Yesterday Tom was mistaken by Mike GALLAGHER for a tender chicken, and chawed up in such a frightful manner that a mad dog would not bite him. Mike is indulging his biting propensities in the solitude of the "jug." Tom will probably be FITTED WITH A TIN EAR to-day. Martin O'DONNEL is also another brave "bye" --- one of the "right sort, yer know." He believes in doing as he pleases with his own; hence he takes a delight in using his surplus strength upon the fragile form of his hard-working little wife. Poor thing! HIS FORM AND FACE IS ONE MASS OF SCARS AND BRUISES. But Martin is her husband, and cannot see how it is that he should lay in the jail a week, while his wife makes enough to pay his fine and release him. J. H. TORBET is a genteel youth with a rubicund blossom upon the tip of his "head-light." He carries a damaged peeper at the fore, and is a specimen of a disorderly character. HE HAD MADE A SLIGHT MISTAKE and thought it was the Fourth of July. Officer GALLAGHER makes an extra half dollar by TORBET's mistake. Who would steal rags? Not I, say many, but nevertheless it is done very frequently. Railroad firemen have a weakness for rags, and so it appears had J. C. CORNESS, who was last evening ruthlessly incarcerated with the common herd because HE LOVED RAGS. But this does not imply that he was one of those impecunious individuals whose wardrobe is ever more holy than substantial. To the contrary, this J. C. CORNESS is a delicate youth of fastidious tastes, whose sole ambition appeared to be a desire to rise in the world and to MAKE HIMSELF A NAME as a public character. In this he has thus far succeeded admirably, since he was duly arrested last night by Deputy Marshal John AGNEW, at an aristocratic "hash factory" on Walnut street, charged with stealing six bales of rags, the property of ELLIOTT & ROBINSON, paper dealers, and valued at $125. There is no pity for a man who FOUNDED HIS FORTUNE UPON CAST OFF APPAREL, but there may be some for the young twelve year old incorrigible, Jimmy WARD, who was yesterday "just tryin' to get me hand in yer Honor," and stole Mr. George HOLMES' fine saddle from his barn. HOLMES is magnanimous. He declined to prosecute the future hero of a two-column hanging tragedy, and Jimmy went home to old Jake Daniels. ====================================================== (I have no connection with any of these families but I'd appreciate knowing if you found this posting helpful.) johnobrien@kc.rr.com ====================================================== neirbo10 Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

John NORMAN, an old resident, was knocked down and killed by a west-bound Air line train at the corner of Second and Gilliss streets at 6:30 last night. Mr. NORMAN had been living for a number of years with his son-in-law, Sylvester CAMPBELL, at the corner of First street and Woodland avenue. Last night about 6 o'clock he left home to go down town. He was quite deaf, and while walking along the tracks did not hear the warning whistle as the train bore down upon him. The engineer shut off steam and reversed, but it was too late. He was struck full in the back and thrown a distance of twenty-three feet. When picked up by the train crew he was dead. It was found that both legs were broken and several of the bones of the back fractured, while his head was badly bruised. Coroner BEDGORD was notified and after viewing the remains he ordered the body taken to Stewart's. The deceased was 75 years of age, and the father of Joseph L. NORMAN of the firm of Norman & Robinson, abstracters. Arrangements for the funeral have not yet been made.

What it costs to live is familiar to every one, while few know what it costs to die. The various classes of funerals are many in order, to suit the whims and caprices of those who have charge of making the arrangements for the consignment of earthly remains to the grave. It may be interesting to know something in regard to THE STYLES OF FUNERALS, such, for instance, as may be used for a pauper, a man of moderate means or one of wealth. There is a certain style which is kept up even in death, which is gratifying to those who remain, while could those even who are the object of those ceremonies, awake to consciousness, it would, no doubt, be gratifying to them. The style of funeral consists of the kind of coffin used, the hearse, number of carriages, invitations, embalming of the body, location of the lot in the cemetery, etc. There are different KINDS OF BURIAL CASES. The most ordinary wooden coffin will not cost more than two dollars and a half, while the finest coffin of wood will cost fifty dollars. Metallic coffins vary in price from seventy to one hundred and fifty dollars. Caskets vary from three hundred to five hundred dollars. The cause of the difference in price in coffins and caskets is owing to the quality of the wood or metal used in their construction, the trimmings, etc. To bury a child costs almost as much as to bury a grown person. Style, though, is everything, and the white hearse, drawn by cream-colored ponies, the white plumes on the hearse, the white coffin or casket, all combine to increase the price. A FIRST-CLASS FUNERAL in the city will cost about eight hundred dollars. A "Times" reporter has been informed by a gentleman, who has been for several years in the undertaker's business in this city, that eight hundred dollars is the largest amount ever paid for a funeral in Kansas City. This calculation of cost, however, does not include the embalming, which will cost about one hundred and fifty dollars more. The figures may be increased to as high as fifteen hundred dollars. THE BUSINESS OF AN UNDERTAKER is one which requires great experience and a familiarity with the manner of handling the corpse, the quality of coffins, etc. It is familiarity alone which removes the sensitiveness generally experienced by a "greenhorn." The business is quite lucrative, when once thoroughly established. The largest coffin factory is located in Cincinnati, whence the trade radiates to different parts of the United States. ====================================================== neirbo10 Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Mrs. Mary HOUGHTON, a decrepit, gray-haired woman, died yesterday afternoon, at 1015 East Fourteenth street, from injuries received by being struck by a Troost avenue cable car at Twelfth and Troost three weeks ago. Mrs. HOUGHTON was 61 years old and was the widow of H. H. HOUGHTON. She was in poor circumstances and for years had been supported by relatives. While out for a walk on the afternoon of May 23 she was struck by the cable car, having walked directly in front of it. Her left collar-bone was broken and she was severely bruised about the body. Her injuries were not considered dangerous at the time, but because of her age she was unable to overcome the shock and gradually grew worse. Coroner LANGSDALE will hold an inquest at Stine's undertaking rooms this morning. The funeral will take place at 3 o'clock this afternoon.

The Carbaugh's had two sons, Glenn and Eugene, Jr. Dr. Carbaugh was coroner and medical examiner at various times as well as Health Commissioner. Ella's sister, Mary Elizabeth Claiborne b. 1862 VA, married William M. Boyer b. 1856 Illinois who was a pharmacist in Craig and moved to Kansas City about 1904. His pharmacy was at about 49th and Troost, as I recall. Their two sons were Russell (my Grandfather) b. 1893 in Bigelow and Cecil, b. 1884 in Craig. Russell founded General Drug and Chemical Co, an early private label packager. Cecil was a telegrapher for Western Union and later ran wire operations for a major investment brokerage. Russell married Margaret McCarty whose father, Frank C. McCarty b. 1862 was the Chairman of Standard Paper and Woodenware in KC. Margaret's mother was the former Mary Augusta Montgomery b. 1862 Nebraska City NE. whose father, George Justice!
