sorious regions are called. Within a
stones throw of the tenement the so called
ALLEY Gang" recently beat young Healy
to death simply because he was sober and
declined their company, and just across
the street, a few days before, drunken
roustabout pounded his wife to death.
But when the facts of the latest murder
were known they added unusual elements
of horror. Mrs. Hannah Riordan was
very decent woman, and was killed by her
own nephew, Thomas Clark. The young
man was what physicians call dipsoma-
niac-that is, born with such terrible
thirst for liquor that if he took one drink
he continued to drink for weeks, till COM
plete exhaustion, want of means or a term
In the hospital brought him to a pause.
When sober he was an industrious man,
brushmaker, and contributed to the sup
port of his aunt, with whom he lived
Three years had passed since his last
spree, and his aunt INDUCED the hope that
he was cured, but on Christmas last he
ventured one glass and thereafter was raw
ing drunk. On the fatal night he came
home on the verge of delirium tremens.
The miserable denizens of the wretched
tenement heard vile curses and woman's
through the building and all was still-so
still, in fact, that they instinctively knew
that murder had been done In the morn
ing they called a policeman, who found
Mrs. Riordan's corpse upon the floor, and
by it a pocket knife, with which her throat
had been cut.
L don't know if 1 done it or not have
been crazy drunk for six weeks" We're
Clark's words after getting sober. A few
years ago his brother Henry, when crazy
with drink, threw himself from high
buildingand was dashed to death. The
curse was on the family; but another
brother has overcome it and is a sober and
fairly prosperous laborer. A few days be-
fore the murder his aunt had asked the
police to take Clark to hospital as an al
coholio maniac, but as he refused to go
they did not coerce him.

GOVERNOR STEELE, OF OKLAHOMA TERRITORY.
oklahoma is nearly as big as Ohio and
IL is going to make one of the finest states
In the Union. 1t has the finest agricultural
land under the American flag. Cotton and
corn grow there side by side and our land
Is as rich as forty year old barnyard. We
have now 60,000 people, which is more than
Wyoming or Nevada, and we are about
ready Tor statehood. Our population was
bullt up like Aladdin's palace which rose IN
night Oklahoma was settled in day
ana the people are now camped all along the
Cherokee strip waiting for it 20 be opened
TO settlement. 1t will be taken up within
mon tn after the bill is passed. We have
good many things in our territory of which
the rest OF the country has no knowledge.
we have never had a geological survey, but
our undevelcped resources are wonderful.
Our coal area is one OF the best in the west.
a sample of mineral paint was brought IN to
me the other day and was then sent on to
Kansas City to some paint makers. They
replied at once offering to bring plant and
come TO the territory to make paint for one
third OF the net profits. We have great
beds Of asphaltum, and we don't know just
what else we have. Our territory is boom
ing. We have three railways. half dozen
good towns, twenty-five newspapers and
several of our best cities have three daily
papers. We are alive, and don't you for
