Old Hometown 124 years ago in 1899
Three burglaries were reported in Lawrence between midnight and morning with no clues. Judge Worley, in charge of natural gas interests, announced drilling would start soon three miles south of the Wakarusa near Sibley, aiming for a find. A runaway driving team frightened by a Santa Fe engine raced west on Winthrop Street but stopped without damage. Coal prices warned to contract for winter.
