erage of five cars per day.
Hennessey Democrat: Ben States, town:
ship trustee of Skeleton township, after
| threshing ninety acres Of turkey wheat,
and getting 2, 290 bushels, had the mis-.
fortune of letting a log fall on him while

Chickasaw Express: From the number
of Indians hauling lumber from Chicka-
sha to the reservations west of us We con-

possible for the opening of that country to
settlement. The Kiowas are said TO be
taking the lead in building and making

Now that so many housekeepers are be-
ginning to stain their fingers picking over
berries, some of them will like to know if
they will dampen their aands and burn a
couple OF matches underneath the brim-
stone fumes will take the stain all out.
That may be all true enough, but what is
going to take the odor of the birthstone
away?
Hennessey Democrat: Mr.. McCracken
of Kingfisher, Indian farming agent for
the Cheyenne and Arapahoe Indians,
passed through Hennessey last Saturday
accompanied by Short Tooth, Lame Bull,
Lone Wolf and Crazy Horse, as scents Oh
their way to the strip in search Of some of
their cattle that had s5rayed off from the
Indians in the Cheyenne country.
Now that the divorce mills in the terri
tory are agoing and are turning out the
usual amount of such grist, it will be well
for those who go through the mill to keep
in mind the act passed by the Legislature
at its last session prohibitiug remarriages
of divorced persons within six months
after such legal separation. The law
makes such action bigamy, which is pun
ishable by Imprisonment in the peniten-
tiary.
Muldrow Register: Mrs. Elizabeth Coin,
q Cherokee woman who lives about four
miles east of this place, was 100 years old
yesterday What n great change in this
world since this old lady was born, at
which time the Cherokee people Were in
the east. Which moves the Indian Jour-
nal to say: Quite change, indeed, but if
she lives few years longer she will see
greater change. The Indian Territory
will then be opened up to settlement and
will be one of the wealthiest and most
prosperous countries on the face OF the
globe.
