MURDERER CAUGHT.
Negro Accused of Killing the Deputy
Marshal.
Guthrie, O. T., July 7. The United
States marshal's office in this city has
received Information stating that the
murderer of Deputy United States Mar
shal J. B. Jones, who was killed in the
Osage nation last Friday night, has been
apprehended. The murderer is a negro,
but the officials here were unable to se
cure his right name.
Deputy Jones met his death at an In
dian dance betwen Bartlesville and Paw
huska. The negro attended the dance
and was selling liquor to Indians. When
Jones attempted to arrest the negro he
resisted and shot the officer. So intense
was the feeling that it was necessary to
take the negro to Pawnee to prevent his
being lynched, lie will be brought here
tomorrow morning and placed in the fed
eral jail.
Deputy Jones has been one of the most
efficient officers of the United States mar
shal's force in the Osage nation. He
came to Guthrie frequently bringing men
to the federal jail. It was only a few
days ago that he was in Gutlyie and
stated then that all officers in the na
tion had been working hard to apprehend
the men who did the hold-up work in the
Osage nation near Pawhuska two weeks
ago.
BANKS CONSOLIDATE.
New Institution Will Be Known as
Guthrie National.
Guthrie, O. T.f July 7. The announce
ment of the consolidation of the Guthrie

idents, Robert Sohlberg cashier, 'W. II.
Coyle, J. "R. Cottingham, A. G. C. Bierer,
A. J. Seay and II. E. Asp directors.
A few days ago the Bank of Indian
Territory was nationalized and was to be
known as the Fourth National Bank of
Guthrie. The merging of the two in
stitutions makes the new bank one of the
strongest in Oklahoma. Since the retire
ment of J. AY. McNeal. who for years was
president of the Guthrie National, Frank
Dale has been president, and will now de
vote his time to his law practice.

WAS IT IN SELF DEFENSE?
That Is the Only Doubtful
Point in the Case
Oklahoma City, O. T., July 7. The
Fourth of July did not end in Okla
homa City v.-ith'out a murder. At 11
o'clock Joe, better known as "Kid"" Ban
nister, was shot and killed by Tom Cook,
the proprietor of the Turf Exchange sa
loon. Bannister was coming down the
front stairway from the gambling room
above the saloon to North. Broadway,
when Cook stepped into the hall from the
saloon and there shot the gambler full in
the breast. Cook then walked back
through the saloon and up the alley to
the county jail, where he surrendered.
But one shot was fired. The bullet
was a 2S-calibre, and entered the breast
between the first and second ribs, to
the left of the sternum, and ranged up
yard, lodging under the right shoulder
blade. The main artery leading to the
head was severad and the man soon bled
to death.
The body lay on the steps for several
moments before W. C. Price and another
man saw it and notified the police. Offi
cers Ashburn and Letts responded to the
call. When they arrived the body had
been carried to the bottom of the stairs.
The man died almost instantly after Ash
burn's arrival.
Coroner Messenbaygh had the body car
ried to the police station, where an ex
amination was made. The head and face
were covered with blood, which had come
from the mouth, and the man's clothes
were drenched from the wound In the
breast.
There was but one wound on the body.
After the examination the body was re
moved to the morgue of the Standard
Furniture company.
W. C. Price, who first reached the body,
found a 3S-calibre revolver lying under
the head. One chamber was entirely
empty and another contained an empty
shell, but it had not been fired for some
time. Bannister wore no revolver scab
bard, and the coroner expressed the opin
ion that the gun was of such size that
it could hardly have been carried in the
pockets of a man's summer clothing. A
number of the dead man's friends said the
"Kid" -was not In the habit of carrying
a revolver.
There has been a long-standing feud
between Bannister and Cook. About six
months ago Frank Kenyon, Cook's brother-in-law,
was arrested for beating Ban
nister over the head with a gun.
There is no question as to who killed
Bannister. It is merely a question of
whether, the act was done in self-defense.
The police say a man can easily carry
a gun without the use of a scabbard, and
that gamblers usually carry their guns
in that manner. If the gun found under
Bannister's head was his, he had it out
when shot. Bannister's friends, how
ever, claim that the "Kid" had no gun,
and that the one found under his head
had been placed there by some con
federate of Cook, to give the impression
that the dead man was armed.
CHARGE OF BURGLARY.
Sheriff Has Brought Back His Prisoner
apisjno ujojj.
Guthrie, O. T., July 7. Deputy Sheriff
Spurlock, Monday, came in from Padu
cah. Ky., with Lawrence Devlin, who is
to answer the charge of bigamy, says
the Woodward Bulletin. Devlin was mar
ried In this city on June 2, to Miss Eva
Oglllve, of Augusta, O. T.. and the couple
left at once for Paducah, where they were
to make their home. About two weeks
ago Mr. Ogilive came here to file the nec
essary Information against Devlin, and
County Attorney Briggs made out the
papers and Governor Ferguson issued a
requisition for the offender. Wife No.
1 lives at Moberly, Mo., and it is stated
that she will be on hand when the case
is tried. When the case came up in
probate court the prisoner entered a for
mal plea of not guilty, waived preliminary
hearing, and was bound over to await
action of the grand jury in the sum
of 5750.
OFF FOR CARLISLE.
Fine Appearing Party of Young Indiana
From Anadarko School.
Anadarko, O. T., July 7 Miss Sarah J.
Porter, a teacher in the government In
dian school at Anadarko. left last evening
in charge of a party of seven Wichita
and Caddo pupils, en route to Carlisle.
Pa., where they will enter the government
industrial school. The party spent sev
eral hours in Chicasha between trains and
took the north bound Rock Island passen
ger train for Kansas City. They were a
fine appearing party of young Indians,
and included Fritz Hendricks. Sam Brown
and Sadie Dunlap. Caddos. Rosabel Pick
ard and Albert Lorentz Wichitas.
FOURTH AT ALVA.
Large Crowd Was Present and Pro
gram was Fine.
Alva. O. T.. Jnly 7 The pioneer says:
The program on trie Fourth was carried
out admirably, excepting the horse races,
the track being too muddy for them. No
body was hurt, there was only one little
fight, and it was a very large crowd of
good-humored people. The assemblage
was the largest ever before seen In Alva;
the a reworks at night were dettghtfoL the
supply of everything was bountiful, and
we believe our citizens will bear us out
in the assertion that it was the roost
enjoyable celebration of any kind ever
hekl in the county.
STAR ROUTE CONTRACTS.

Was Leaking Away.
Alva. O. T.. July 7. W. I McGtnals,
assistant superintendent of the railway
rar.il service and attache of the office of
the second assistant postmaster general,
was in Alva and vicinity this wk In
vestigating seme star rente contracts,
says the Courier. It seems that last
spring some star route contracts were

at that time and that his methods and
the co .tracts were far from beinjr sanc

SILVER MEDALS.
Mr. Fred Wenner Authorizes the Gift
of Medals.
Guthrie, O. T., July 7. Fred L. Wenner,
secretary of the Oklahoma commission
to the. St. Louis exposition, has written
the Jefferson Fair association relative to
offering silver medals for display of
grains at the fair, the exhibits to be
used afterwards at the exposition. Mr.
Wenner says: '
"I note that you are going to have a
county fair at Jefferson, . September 9-12.
If you work up some interest in the mat
ter of a grain display at the fair, our
commission would authorize you to offer
three or four silver medals; say, ope for
the best display of wheat in the straw,
one for the best alfalfa, one for the
best oats; all grain entered in the com
petition for the medals to be sent to the
World's fair."
DIFFICULT PROBLEM.
Good Roads in the Cherokee Nation is
the Point to Settle.
Guthrie, O. T., July 7. The people of
the Cherokee nation who have taken their
allotments are having trouble over the
new roads which are being formed under
orders i from the Indian agent. The al
lottees! are required to place their fences
on tho lines along the section lines, and
this causes the old roads to be closed up.
There is no provision for the working of
these roads, and many of them are not
in a passable condition and cannot be
used until a large amount of money is
expended. There is no road or poll tax
in the country, and the p roblem is a
difficult one for Cherokee citizens to
solve.
HE IMAGINED THINGS.
Thought a Mob Was After Him and
He Ran.
Grand, O. T. July 7 The sudden dis
appearance of Superintendent! Bouldln
from Grand last week caused much alarm
says the Day County Progen. Some
feared he had met a violent death, as
.much of his important official business
was left unfinished and his team uncared
for at Sheriffs Smith's barn. His desk
that he had always bm so careful to
close upon his leaving was left open. Ho
was known to be in poor health at the
time of his sudden absence which led peo
ple to believe he had wandered away, and
they feared his untimely end. Later de
velopments gave our people much relief.
Mr. Bouldin walked a good portion of the;
way home, secured a horse at Mr. Young's
and finished the trip safely. He imagined
a mob was after him when he left which
accounts for his sudden departure. Wo
understand that he is feeling better now
and it is hoped that he will speedily re
cover his health.
BOND BUYERS COMPLAIN.
Cash for Interest Should be Sent to
Fiscal Agency.
Pond Creek, O. T., July 7 The Vidette
asserts that bond buyers have complained
to Governor Fergupon that the sale of
bonds in eastern markets has been In
jured by the arbitrary refusal of county
treasurers to transmit to New York fiscal
agencies money for the payment of bonds
and coupon Interest, the treasurers de
mand that the payments should be made
in Oklahoma. In a letter to Governor
Ferguson Wednesday Attorney General
Robberts said that the treasurers were
not only violating the law, but could
be compelled to transmit required funds
to New York fiscal agencies.
STRUCK ON THE HEAD.
At First It Was Said He Had Been
Shot.
Snyder, O. T., July 7 After supper yes
terday evening Bill Brown walked up to
Frank St. Clair, who was sitting on a
bench in front of his home, and struck
him over the hend with a heavy six-shooter.
The blow cut through St. Clair's hat.
leaving a piece of it in the hole which
was cut in his scalp. He walked down
town to Dr. Muller's otfcce. his Injuries
being dressed by Drs. Muller and Steven
son. The piece of hat in the wound
started the story, that he had been shot,
parties saying they saw the bullet stick
ing in his head. St. Clair's own Ideas
about it seem to be confused and he alsi
said Brown had shot him first and then
struck him over the hend with the gun.
Brown had been drinking. If there is
any trouble between the parties back of
the attack it is being kept quiet.

At the farm of M. L. Cowan, six miles
southeast of Olustee. last Friday morning
William Baysinger shot and killed Chas.
Williams. Both men were residents of
that vicinity and both were employed
with Newton & Baker's independent
threshing outfit, and the killing occurred
at tho thresher camp on Mr. Cownr. s
farm. An Independent threshing outfit
Is one that goes about with a "chuck
wagon" and camping outfit and boards
its own men instead of the farmers' wives
having to feed them.
It was early in the morning before th,
men had started to work and they were
about camp. Mrs. Baker, wife of ono
of the owners, was head cook. She took
a pail and started for a well not far
away after water. Williams remarked
that it was a shame that the woman
should nave to carry water when there
were so many lazy men about, and mad--
other remarks that offended Baysinger.

into a fight and W!illiamst being much
the larger man, got the best of Ba -singer.
They were separated and th
men started to eat breakfast. Bayslng- r

carrying a -M-Colts revolver in his hand
He stated that he was gooing to ki!!
Williams. Mrs. Baker begged him to put
up the gun, but he refused. Williams
had finished eating and was getting rear!y
to light his pipe when Baysinger cam
up. As Baysingor approached Williams
tho latter made a rush at Baysinger.
but stumbled over the wagon tongue
and just then Baysinger shot. The ball
entered Williams' side, and as he was in
a stooping position tho ball ranged down
and passed throuogh his intestines, lodg

"Djsar jMks. Pikkjiam I bnvo been married for nearly
two years, ami so far have not been blessed wipk a child. I
have, however, suffered with a complication of feinnla troubles
and painful menstruation, imtil very recently.
"The value of Ivdiu E. Piukham's Vegetable Com
pound was called to my attention ly an intimate friend, whoso
life had simply been a torture with inflammation and uleornfcion,
and a few bottles of your -Compound cured her: she can hardly
beliuve it herself to-day, she enjoys such blessed health. I took
four bottles of your Compound and consider myrdf cured. I
am i nice more in fineJieaith and spirits ; my domestic and oiflmal
duties all seem easy now, for 1 feel so strong I can do three
timt s what I used to do. You lmye a hot of friends in Denver,
and among tho best count, Yours very gratefully,
31its. Ida L. 1!oer, 32tt E. ImUi Ave., Denver, Col.
If you aro ill. don't hesitate to get a liottlo of JLydla .

No other person has had so Avide an experience with
the ills of women, nor such a record of success, as Mrs.

Sirs. Piukham's advice. "Write to-day. Tell her all. It
may save your life.
