PARIS. Texas, March a9.-The ex

citizens headed by V. NJ. Lock came to

Lock party had withdrawn from the

a vigorous search for the men they al

Lock and his five men returned the

children had run out at the beginning

Of the militia, Solomon Baviste was
shot through the arm and in the side,
mortally wounded. Three others had
flesh wounds. Locks little daughter
had her hair burned by bullet as she
was going up stairs with her mothers

through Locks hat and his sons arm
was grazed. 1t is said the children
were shot at as they endeavored to go
from the house to q cabin in the yard.
The immediate cause of the conflict
was the attempt to arrest Lock on
trumped up charges growing ont of
the late election. Lock fears if he is
ever arrested that he will be killed.

WILL BE RATIFIED.
Cherokess In Council Considering the
Strip Agreement.

strip AKreSHcut'
TAHLEoUAH, Ind. Ter, March go
The capital of the Cherokee nation is
filed with mongrcl population and
the united cry of male and female, ma
tive and alien. is for ratification for
the sale of the strip to the United
States. The council met yesterday
morning. 1t is composed of eighteen
members and Il lower house of forty.
Even those who are most deSirous of II
ratification recognize that it will re-
qllire two weeks for the assembly TO
complete it's work.
A long communication submit
ted to the council Chief Harris
urged the acceptance of the PROPOSE
ton. Congressman Peel also put in an
appearance to explain the details
which the Cherollees might find OBJ
jectionable, and W. A. Phillips of
Kansas, who formerly represented the
Cherohees as an attorney, arrived on
the same mission.
OF fifty-eight members of the council
there are not more than fifteen full
blood Indians, but these full-bloods
did not understand English, and, by
resolutions, the message of the chief,
and the bill as it passed congress,
showing all the amendments to the
original bill, were ordered printed in
Cherokee.
Before anything can be done it will
be necessary to dispose of much pre-
liminary work in the way of arrang-
ing commissions and providing for Il
census of the nation. All of this will
delay the opening, and it is the opinion
of Congressman Peel, who is familiar
with all the steps necessary, that it
will be impossible to effect an opening
before the middle of June or the first
of July. This opinion is shared by ex-
Chief Bushyhead, Chief Harris and
Colonel PhillipS.

WICHITA, Kan, March 25.-In the
district court of Sumner county yes

in the case of the Cherokee nation
against the Cherokee live stock asso-
citation, declaring the lease of the
Cherokee outlet to the association alb
solutely void. Suit was brought to
recover rent from the association to
the amount of 100000, and in
their petition the Cherol<ees claimed
a fee-simple title to the lands, but
the court held that the patent under
which they claimed title conveyed only
the use of the strip as an outlet, and
that apart from this their lease to the
cattlemen was in violation of section
2l1G of the revised statutes of the
United States, which provides that
Indians may not lease or convey lands,
except by treaty pursuant to the con-

E. Kirby Smith, professor of mathe-
matics in the university of the South
since 1875, died here yesterday after
noon at 1925. For two years his health
has been declining. Two weeks ago
he was taken sick in New Orleans and
was confined to his bed for five or six
days, but recovered sufficiently to
travel and reported at Sewanee ready
for duty Monday. March 10. Two days
afterward he caught cold and a relapse
ensued, his condition being compli-
Gated by congestion of the right lung.
His end was very peaceful. His wife
and six of his family were with him.
General Kirby Smith was born at st.
Augustine, Fla, March Is, 1924, and
was therefore in the Goth year of his
age. With him closes the list of full
generals on both sides during the late
war, his commission as full general in
the Confederate service having been
issued February 10, 1864.
He came from an illustrious family
of soldiers that has participated with
distinction in every war waged in this
country since the old French war.
His grandfather served both against
the French and the British being a
major in the revolutionary war. A
wife and eleven children survive him.

A VICTORY FOR EDISON.
Tne New Jersey Federal Judge Decides
Case Involving Millions.

TRENTON, n. j., March 29.-Judge
Green of the federal court filed his
opinion yesterday in the case of the
Edison electric light company against
Westinghouse, Church, Kerr & Co., in
which he upholds the Edison patents.
The suit was brought to decide the
question whether the device used by
the Trenton electric light company for
the distribution of the electric current
was an infringement of the Edison
patent and the court virtually declared
that it was. Millions of dollars are
involved in these rights throughout
the United States and will accrue to
the Edison companies. The patent in
question is that covering the consump-
ton and feeding wire method of distri-
button. Edison obtained it ten years
ago.
