It is to your It Is an undenlablcfact that the two territories are rapidly growing Inw abiding. This is not only duo to the steady march of civilization but also to the zealous work of the officers of tho law. In this territory, all phases of crimes are on tho decline, owing to tho vigilance und s'neuto worlc of I'ni tcd States Marshal Nix and his corps ot deputies. Sjtuo of the most cour ageous men that ever strapped a cart ridge belt about thotr loins or drew 11 six shooter are on his force. These deputies and their posscuien are con tinually on the go and they rarely miss tho game they go after. One of the most common crimes tho officers have to deal with are tho lawlesschai actors who persist In introducing and selling ardent spirits In the Indian countries. From one to fifteen men are arrested every day by the deputies, but thanks to the Nix's Icccn-eyed minions this hitherto stereotyped charge Is growing rare. The dep uties have the whlshy-shovors, us well as other classes of lawbreakers, on the run. Much praise Is duo to Mr. Nix and his men. , A. M. Ilnrch has returned from Co lumbus, Ohio, where he landed four prisoners in the pen. Ho says there are now 1 870 convicts In that noted bas tlle. A strange coincidence of his trip was the meeting in Cincinnati ot two prisoners bearing the name of Thomas, ono of them from Ardmorc and the other from Muskogee, in tho Indian Territory. They had not met for llf teen years und seemed proud to see each other In chains. They entered prison the same day und for equal terms, but wero sent up for dilTereut crimes.

An iron fence with a stone foundation should be placed there by all means." "Do you know that there ore no les's than six women in the city at present with divorces pending In tho courts," said a knowing young attorney yes terday. "Well, it's a fact. They came here from different parts of the union, and are now living through tho re quired nine'y days, preparatory to having a decree issued, making them single again. Several are excslli'M. ladies, and those I know tell me they intend to make their home in the cap ital city after they are granted di vorces from their recreant liego lords."
