ABSOLUTELY PURE
Pumped Full OF Lend.

CADpo, |. T.. Dec. 10 -Yestcrisy
was Blue county court day, and a num-
Der of Indians ConGrcgatcd here, several
OF whom became involved in q quarrel.
This morning the engineer OF the South
bound freight train reported seeing the
dead body of a man about a mile aud a
half from town. The sheriff went to the
scene, and found the body to he that of
Jim Robinson, a full blood Choctaw.
The body was living about fifteen feet
from the railway tracks. and was literally
riddled with bullets On examination of
his body 1t was found that thirteen leaden
pellets had been shot through his body.
They came from a IS Winchester. a "A
Winchester and a A. pistol. In their
hurry to work the magazine to their
Winchcsters they sometimes threw out
whole cartridges. The shots were in such
range that his hat and clothing were
burnt with the powder from the guns.
Some ten or twelve shots were fired into
him standing over the BODY, while he was
living on the ground. Evidently three
persons did the shooting. Several
OF the Indians who were in town
Yesterday. and who live in
Robinson's ncighborhood were noticed
holding earnest consultations, and before
starting for home they purchased a num-
Der of Wlnchesters, cartridges and
cartridge belts. Robinson left town in
company with some other Indians about
II O'Clock, which was the last seen Of him
until he was found dead this morning.
The parties who left town with him last
night have not been in here today.
Robinson leaves one child. The most
remarkable thing is that the sheriff ror
none of his deputies have made any pre-
tensions toward irving to find ont or cap
ture the guilty parties, but, instead, the
sheriff has been waiting on the court,
which ia now in session, while three Of his
deputies have been here in town all day.
apparently the least interested parties in
town. Had the deceased been a United
States citizen. or lived IN one OF the
states. the murderers would have been
captured before now, for it was one of the
most cold bloodcd murders ever com
mitted in the Choctaw Nation, Robinson
even being armed with q pocket

Weekly OF the portrait by Sargeant.l
and guitars while she dances, he is her
second husband. Her first husband died
in Philadelphia two years ago. 1t seems
likely that the public will pay as readily to
see a wife dance as it will to see a widow
dance. As a matter of fact, it isn't prob.
able that it make a particle of difference
to the public whether Carmencita is a
maid, a matron or a widow so long as she
dances well.
Pablo Eschepare. if he is Carmencita's
husband, is the husband OF a rich woman.
and her riches are the result of as strange
a craze" as ever American thester goers
fell victims to. When Carmencita first
came to America she travelled with the
"Antiope" company, and no one paid any
particular attention to her. Then she was
employed to dance before the patrons of a
big New York beer and music hall, and
somebody suddenly discovered that she
was a phenomenon. At once that concert
hall enjoyed such n boom as it had never
known before. Every one went to it
rich and poor, high and low. Fine ladies
sat in the boxes, heavily yelled and half
stified with bad tobacco smoke, in order to
see the big eyed Spanish woman wriggls
and cavort for a few moments on the stage,
and fine gentlemen applauded her strange,
graceful movements until they cracked
their gloves.
Moreover, she became a great drawing
room attraction. Hundreds Of dollars
were paid her for dancing a dozen or two
Spanish steps in the p~arlors Of the rich,
and altogether Carmencita had a gay time
of it.
This season she left the concert hall and
went ION the road" She WAS received
with open arms.

in a point and FIN DE IECLE COAT.
finished with pendant balls of fire gilt
gold with a greenish sheen. The plas-
tron reaches down to the center of the
back as well as in front, and is embroid-
cred as stifily as a staff officers uniform,
and on the shoulders it stands out in
japanese style. Around the neck there
is a band OF pink moufflon. The founda-
ton for all the gold embroidery on the
waist is Russian green silk. The whole
coat has something of a japanese look
to it.
The dainty little bonnet to wear with
it is made of great amber beads and
gray tulle with a gold ribbon bow.
This coat is naturally a rarely seen
garment, as its cost would debar the ma
jority of persons from possessing it, but
it is worth seeing.
The new woolens for spring are to be
found in the great wholesale houses, and
among them is a whole line of billiard
cloth in green, gray, drab, plum ele-
phante and Attorney, just the color of
those beautiful cows. The cloth is heavy
and fine, and make the most elegant
tailor costumes imaginable.
Royal serge is another material which
will be put forward for spring in a
heavier weight than any serge vet seen
in %colors, and fully as thick and firm as
the Priestley nuns serge. These will
make excellent knockabout dresses. Hab-
1t cloth and light broadcloth will be very
popular in the new shades.
