BUSINESS STOPPED IN ATLANTA
The Snow Storm Causes Many Residents
to Take Holiday.

ATLANTA, Ga, Jan. 19.-Not in 80
years or more has Atlanta had such days
as these. The city woke yesterday to
find two inches of snow on the ground,
and snow still falling rapidly. By 10
o'clock it was so heavy that all the cleo
trio car lines were compelled to suspend
operations. Shortly afterwards the other
lines stopped, and holiday spirit seized
the entire city.
Business was practically suspended.
Everybody INDUCED in snowballing, and
everybody who could improvise sleigh
of any kind took hand in that sport so
unusual here.
The figures of the oldest inhabitant
show that not since 1856 has Atlanta
known such a snow storm. 1t still con-

Scvere-NIany Rivers Ice Packed - A
Big Snow Storm in The Southern
Statcs-Fears of Water Famine at
Several Points.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-Intensely cold
weather is general throughout the Middle,
Northern, Northwestern States, Canada
and Manitoba, and it has been attended
by much loss of life. Seldom, If ever,
have so many fatalities by freezing been
recorded within twenty-four hours as are
shown to-day And there is no immediate
prospect of rise in the temperature
Reports received from over one hundred
sections of the country tell most incredi-
BILE tales of suffering amid snow and ice
with the thermometer ranging from to
50 degrees below zero.
At Nanticoke, Pa, seven men went
fishing on lake near that place on
Tuesday. AS ice had not formed they
embarked in frail canoes, carrying with
them only light lunches During the
night the temperature suddenly fell to
zero and the lake was converted into an
icy eXpanse AS the men did not return
rescuing parties set out in search of them.
To-day, as result of their efforts, the
report comes that all the fishermen per-
ished in the frigidity of the night, nearly
every one having been found frozen stiff
i'll their canoes.
They had become ice-locked about half
mile from shore, and, benumbed with
cold, were unable to escape and were
slowly frozen to death.
Two men, who had started to walk 30
land before -he ice was strong enough to
bear their weight, broke through and were
drowned.
Three tramps who sought shelter under
a shed at Princess Ann, Md, last night,
were found there this morning frozen stiff
in their battered garments. Their names
have not been learned.
From Hanr, Valley, Pa, an unproduct-
i've region, remote from Huntington,
comes IL terrible story of destitution in
the family of Sen jamin Lear.
Two months ago Lear, who is an indo-
lent, improvidrut fellow, abandoned his
family, consisting of wife and two chill
months old. Ills wife, young woman
of weak intellect, was unable to provide
for the children. nor did she bring their
starving condition to the attention OF the
proper authorities.
Tuesday the elder child died of starva-
ton, and in its dreadful Bufferings for
food it had bitten deeply into the flesh
on its hands and arms.
Yesterday the baby, months old, also
died, and when q neighbor who called
examined the body 1t was learned
that the baby, in its desperation for
nourishment, had sucked the blood from
its finger tips Tho children's bodies
were frozen stiff when discovered.

HIS ASSOCIATIONS IN CLEVELAND.
Business and Social Affairs Made Him IA
Familiar Figure There.

Familiar Figure 1here'
CLEVELAND, O., Jan. 1.-the late ex-
President Hayes was a familiar figure in
Cleveland coming to town very frequent
ly to visit his son, Webb. G. Hayes, who
is treasurer of the National Carbon Com
pany, and who lives in this city.
He was simple and transformations in
his habits. and it seemed strange that the
genial old gentleman who passed unno-
ticed in the street save by acquaintances,
and who might easily have been taken for
some well-to-do farmer, had ruled the
greatest nation on earth for four years.
His visits to Cleveland were often Of a
business nature. He was member OF
the Garfield Monument Committee, a
member of the Western Reserve Histori-
cal Society, of the Loyal Legion, and
other associations. He was in Cleveland
Saturday when attacked by the disease
which resulted in his death.
Gen. Hayes last public appearance in
this city was at the banquet of the Ken
yon Alumni Association at the Stillman,
ON the evening of Dec. g.
He presided at the banquet and was
elected president of the association. He
made quite a long speech and was in fine
health and spirits.

EVAN at Glasgow.
GLASGOW, Jan. ia horrible scene
occurred at the execution of William Nc
Evan for the murder of a woman at
West Pollokshiels. McEwan, after COM
hitting the crime, had attempted to COM
NIT suicide by cutting his throat. It was
thoughthe would die from the effect Of the
wound, but the doctors succeeded in saw
ing him for the gallowE, although his neck
was left in n very weak condition.
When he was brought out for execu-
ton the mark of the self-inflicted wound
could plainly be seen.
He walked without apparent fear to
the gallows and the rope was adjusted
When the bolt was drawn an awful
spectacle was witnessed, which caused
even the experienced prison officials to
turn pale. The mans head was nearly
torn OF, and blood gushed out over his
body and the Gallow&
Death was instantaneous.
Much indignation In expressed against
the authorities for not having taken pre-
cautions against such an occurrence.

Scarlet Fever and Measles.

ROCKVILLE, Jan 19.-Quite a large
number of cases of scarlet fever are re-
ported in this city. The cases are
widely scattered, however, and the dis
ease is not looked for in epidemic form.
Most of the patients are very young
children. In Tolland the epidemic Of
measles, which has been raging for a
few weeks, is almost over, and no
further trouble is feared. 1t was found
necessary week ago to close the Sugar
Hill district school, as all but one of the
pupils were ill with measles. In some
families there have been five cases and
in many three cases.

Who wouldn'tpause when about

than clear that we are offering the
largest values in this line. We are
closing out warm ulsters and over
coats for men at SIS, and for S12,
we are giving the best values ever

Indian chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1882-1902, 1893-12-07

THERE can be no doubt that Ok.
lahoma will be unusually active
this winter and through the pres
ent session of congress in the in
terest of statehood for the Indian
Territory. The people of the five
tribes, that is the Indians, are op-
posed to statehood on any terms
at present and are extremely OPP
posed to being tied onto Oklahoma
at all. But there is one danger
that menaces the FIVE tribes and
that is their very inactivity. The
masses of our own Cherokee ma
tion are so opposed to any change
that they will not even discuss the
matter or bring into requisition
measures that would insure the
protection of the interests OF those
concerned. The only means of
DIOltNAlOi lh olBnb nhhih hNoh
some very radical changes and will
be hard 20 bring about. The pol
icy of the United States seems
to be to do way with
all the separate Indian gov
ernments as speedily as is consist
ent with the treaties and laws
bearing on the question. Okla
homa could scarcely exist under a
state government at present, in
deed her resources are not sulii-
cient to hardly carry on her terri
torial form of government. But ii
she could secure statehood for the
whole territory she would soon see
to it that the people of the five
tribes would at least pay a good
share of the taxes. The worst
course possible for us to pursue is
inactivity.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND last sat
urday appointed the following
committee, who in conjunction

take the census of the Old Settler
Cherokees who are to participate
in the per capita allowance due
them: Thos. r. knight, Vinita;
Coffey woodall, Echo; VIM. II.
Hendricks, Menard; Jas. NJ. Keys,
Chouteau, and Darius e. Ward,
TahIequah. This Old Settler
money will be paid as soon as the
census is complete and congress
makes the appropriation. 1t is a
Judgment of the supreme court and
will be embraced in the regular APP
preparation bill, which is generally
one of the very last acts Of congress
before adjournment, and as this is
the long term the appropriation
may not be looked for before mid
summer. The exact number of
Old Settlers is not known but the
payment will amount to several
hundred dollars each for those en-
titled to participate.
