Sockless Jerry a Cattle Buyer.
Jerry Simpson, the former Congressman from Kansas, has quit politics for good and all. The other day he burned the last ties that connected him with public lifeāthe letters he had received from people during the period of his fame as a sockless statesman. There were eight tons of them in all. Mr. Simpson is now a cattle buyer at the Wichita stock yards.
Almon Streeter of Rensselaer Falla, N. Y., died, aged 107 years.
