This Thursday morning, shortly

grocery, the latter being upon the cor
ner and Of brick. Five numbers inter
vened between here and "Patton's
alley" all Of which were occupied by
buildings Of greater or less value and
Importance and all we're consumed.
The loss Of the contents was entire as
to three buildings and well-nigh as to
the Raymond.
The Chouteau grocery, Davis Hills
grocery and w. w. Miller & Cos. drug
store were never opened. Skinner,
Ratclin q Co., who carry two stocks in
two separate buildings, saved one
fourth to one-third of their dry goods
stock. II. G. Barritt, who recently
converted the Raymond into a hotel,
saved very few articles, (chieHy bed.
ding) All of the guests and dodgers
escaped but many Of them with scarce.
ly anything but the scanty clothing
they had on. Mrs. Cummins, who
occupied one Of the upper rooms, was
burned severely in the hands and had
the misfortune to leave her pocket
book lying upon table in her room
aud it was consumed as were also all
Of her clothing. Claude Shelton, an
other guest. left his vest under his pill
low with $500. Drs. Fortner & Bagby,
whose Office was in the second story Of
the same building, lost a considerable
portion of their Libraries. DR.. Bagby
was cut of by the flames and made his
exit by jumping out OF a window.
To the south OF the Skinner Corner
was Felix Cowan's billiard hall and
butn EhiHncIt hdlCiln O W y. Mhfc
house. Both of these were burned but
the contents OF the billiard hall were
carried out.
In the upper story Of the Skinner
brick was The CHIEFrAIS Office and we
rejoice to say 1t is there still, though
in somewhat chaotic condition, hav-
ing been moved out in part during the
FIRE and once sInce--when it was feared
the building was going to fail.
As far as eau be learned the loss
was about $4,000 and the insurance
$4,000.
MIR. Raymond's building was valued
at Sl2 600 and was insured for 81 900.
Beyond saying the fire was not in
cendiary, a more extended notice can
not be given this week.
1t is to be distinctly understood
that the fire will in no wise interfere
with next weeks fair. Ample accom-
modations will be found for all visitors.

DEPUTY IsBELL SHOT.
Ned Christie Surprised but Fights his
way ont.


Deputy Isbell, Heck Thomas and
their outfit, including Bud Trainor,
went out to Ned Christie's house,
some ten miles below Tahlequah, ear
ly last Thursday morning to give him
"a rorpd." They found him at home
andin the scrimmage that onsued Mr..
lsbell was shot through the left shoul-
der joint, which will probably cripple
him permanently. Christie escaped
and so did his son, amidst shower of
bullets. 1t is reported that both were
shot, but the report is not confirmed.
The house WAS set on fire. which
brought the woman out and the men
folks shortly after. The story is that
Christie dropped his Winchester and
that the boy picked it up aud shot
about all OF our friend Isbell that was
visible from behind the tree, Just as
he was in the act OF firing. Christie is
the man who is supposed to have
killed Marshal Naples, couple OF
years ago, though there is hardly a
doubt but he mistook him for High
Sheriff Hawkins, who he was lying in
wait for. Christie has very strong
following OF kinsmen aud friends
around him and the belief is they will
fight for him II occasion arises. Mr..
Isbelr was taken TO the hotel at Tab.
lequah and careful attention is given
to all Of his wants.

Cousiu Johns Tablets.

Cousin John came to visit the Porter
family. He stayed a week, and the
result was that every member of the
family, from grandpa down to the
school BOY, Bob, was convinced OF his
or her own inherent deep-seated sill
ness.

nor a profound talker, but a quiet,
thoughtful man of ordinary informa'
ton and abilities. !.
But Cousin John was deaf; so deal
that no ear trumpet or any other inven-
ton could help him tc hear single
sound. Hence he carried on conversa'
ton by means of tablets on which his
companion wrote while he spoke. !.
1t was these tablets which convicted
Che Porter family of foolishness.
IL was going, said grandpa, to tell
John the story of how / once came to

along and held out his tablets. You
appear to be intensely interested, said
he, Let me share the story | declare

talking for one hour of Bessy's new

The joke which convulsed everybody

SO malignant and black

contemplate details of a squabble be-
tween the cook and the milkman?
The Porter family, thus wakeued to
their shortcomings, did not sink to
sleep again when their guest was gone
Many pert answer was checked on
the lip and replaced by a pleasant
smile; many n stupid story left untold I;
long, eager discussions of tribes or
scandaious gossip died out suddenly
at the remembrance of Cousin Johns
white tablets. Thoughtful silence
often took the place Of incessant, mean
ingless babble, and the words OF the
Porters, when spoken, were few, kind
~ and to the point
Would that Cousin Johns tablets
could come for brief space into every
American household or, better still,
the habit of a brief pause before speech.
