ARDMORE.
Murder Believed to Have Been Committed.
The Jurymen Disappointed-Coal
Mine Activity.

Special to the Gazette.
ARDMoRE, 1. T., Jan. 16.-The build
ing boom in Ardmore continues to grow
and the town is improving very rapidly.
Thrty-six hundred bales of cotton have
been shipped this season, and it is still
coming in.
The coal mines are assuming quite
lively appearance. About forty men are
at work mining, and the force is soon to
be considerably augmented. The coal
that is being taken out now is of splendid
quality, the vein being from six to eight
feet thick.
Deputy United States Marshal william
Whitney died here last night with re-
lapse of measles. He was buried in the
Ardmore cemetery this evening.
The friends of Governor William Guy
are greatly disappointed at the decision
of Secretary Villas in favor of William
Byrd as governor of the Chickasaw ma
ton. Guy had a majority of ten in the
votes cast at the election, but q majority
of the senate and legislature were for
Byrd, and he took charge of the govern
ment and has been recognized as de facto
governor. Guys friends claim that this
is bad precedent; inasmuch as it gives
the legislature and senate power to go
behind the returns and thus defeat the
viii of the people.
Pickens county is the wealthiest county
of the Chickasaw nation, and pays more
tax than the other three counties COM
bined, but there is strong prejudice
among the Byrd followers against this
county, and the last legislature being
controlled by the Byrd faction removed
the county seat from this town to Brlar
creek thirty miles east where there is not
a building of any kind. Once
there was an old frame building
at that place which was used for a court
house, but nothing remains save heap
of ashes to show where the old courthouse
stood. This is a sample of the progress
that will be made by the Byrd party.
A murder is supposed TO have been
committed here a few days ago. A
family camped near here n few nights
ago and trouble arose among them ap-
parently over the intimacy of the man
with young girl who was with them.
Parties passing near heard loud words,
then blows, then pistol shots following in
quick succession. They heard woman
weeping and bewailing the loss of her
child and heard her say she would be in the
penitentiary before a week. The party
started back to town for an officer and
while away the man and woman were
seen to go to pond near by, apparently
carrying something which they threw in,
and returned TO their wagon. Ii is be-
lieved their child was killed in the row
and then thrown in the pond to conceal
the matter

THE FARMERS TRUST
Which Threatens to Put All Other Trusts to
Route.

Which Threatens to Put All Other Trusts to
Route
CHARLESTON, S. c., Jan. 10.-The
situation as to trusts seems about to be
reversed in South Carolina For over a
year the farmers in various portions of
the state have been engaged IN organiz-
ing into societies called the Farmers al
lance. Not much attention has been
paid TO this heretofore, but now that the
time has arrived for laying in farm sup
plies, especially commercial fertilizers,
ii begins to look like the farmers have
themselves organized into n sort of
trust or combine, principally against the
fertilizer trade. In some counties the
alliance have combined TO buy their fer
tilizer in bulk from the manufacturers
most of which are in this city, Baltimore
and Wilmington, Del. In other counties
they have decided to dispense with the
use OF commercial fertilizers altogether,
using homemade manures. The effect
of these combinations on the fertilizer
trade is not as yet serious, but dealers
and manufacturers are uneasy, and it is
not improbable that there viii be far
reaching changes in the business ere
long, and through the influence of the
Farmers alliance, which promises to de-
Velop into a '-ery powerful trust.

All Thibetans slain in battle are
honored blythe people with offerings
of sweet scented flowers. They salute
their superiors by taking of their hats
and thrusting out their tongues three
times. The people say the climate diff
fers every few miles. The punish
ments are very severe. No matter
whether the crime be grave or trivial,
the matter great orsma!l, all offenders,
when caught, are tied up in n dark
room with all their limbs bound. and
kept there until dragged out for trial.
Sentences Of death are carried out by
binding the criminal to pillar and
shooting at him with muSkets and
bows in contest for drink, by taking
him toa cave Swarning with scorpions
and allowing the latter TO sting him,
or by handing him over to be divided
and eaten up by the savages Of the U

They put their dead in bags made of
hides, which they suspend for seven
days from the ridge poles of their
dwellings, while Lama priests chant

New Spelling. but an Old Way.

1t is a striking illustration Of the
fact that new light is often found TO
be only old darkness, that one can see
in the library Of the British Museum,
under the date Of 1885, more than 300
years ago, a volume, the title Of which
is;
"Esopz Fablz, in tru ortography,

joOind the short sentence ov the WYE

latid out Of Latin intoo English"
The author Of this sentence spelled

equal TO the direction of a letter re-
ceived lately by a gentleman who was
addressed from abroad, as in the YOU
knightid Stats of Aymerrika." The

was Hodges son, is found, in English

Tles nl Steel

All lovers Of the fast falling forest
trees will find qualification in the fact
that railroad ties can not only be made
of steel, but that. within the past few
days, a car load Of such ties was
shipped from this city to be used by a
western railroad. As wood grows
scarcer and the process of making
steel ties becomes perfected, these two
causes must have one effect, namely,
the lessening of tree slaughter by rail
roads. II is consummation devoutly
to be wished Every mile of modern
railway, with its thousands of ties and
its vista of telegraph poles, represents
a grove of trees laid low. But the
steel ties existence betokens no such
denudation of hill and valley. 1t
simply gpresents few cubic feet Of
space added to the depths from which
coking coal and ore are taken. The
furnace has come TO spare the forest.
