After Months of sufrerinr.


Daniel +. Prather died at his home
in this city Monday evening after a
lingering eickness of more than one
hundred days duration. Young
Prather was AN exemplary young mao
and being modest and retiring in his
demeanor, he commanded the respect
OF all and probably hadn't an enemy
in the world. He had attended the
Seminary at Tahlequah and taken
course of studies at Austin, Tex, and
stood high in his classes in both
ochools. His death is a sad blow TO
his aged parents and unmarried sister
as he was their mainstay and the one
on whom they expected to lean in
years TO come. short time before
his death he professed faith in the
Lord Jesus Christ and signiled his
willingness TO obey the command that
sooner or later must come to all. lie
was received into the Methodist
church and was baptised only few
hours before his death. The family
has the sympathy OF the community,

The watts and cobb oasea.

Judge Denison has returned from
Washington where he has been for
several days in behalf of the Watts,
Cobb and other similar claimants to
Cherokee citizenship. Special Com
missioner Duncan reporting his inqui-
ries into the question this summer,
finds that the Cobb, Payne and Bell
families have been legally admitted to
citizenship and that their citizenship p
has never been legally taken from
them. 1t recommends that MIR. Cobb
has been illegally dispossessed OF his
property at Webber's Falls and that it
should be returned to him. He finds
that the Watts family technically con-
strued have never been legally ad-
mitted 10 citizenship in the Cherokee
nation. IL seems that the Cherokee
laws at the time required that citizen
ship should be allowed by the supreme
court in special session and that the
records do not show that this case was
passed upon IN such session.
In his general report on the intruder
cases placed under his inquiry Com
missioner Duncan says; rrhose per-
sons whose claims to citizenship
have Investigated and whose rights are
to be passed upon by the department,
are, as a class, intelligent, industrious,
peaceable and law-abiding citizens"
GAN OF them seem to have made their
application for citizenship in good
faith, and were led to believe (by the
Cherokee authorities) that they had
been properly and legally admitted
and on the strength OF these represen-
tations given them by the courts, ac-
quired valuable property in the ma
tion. "-Phoenix.

Monday next will be the opening day

displays in shape. If anything, however,
exhibitors are more dilatory than ever.

IL Co., the Bell Conservatory and several
other Sacramento institutions are at work
on their exhibits, but outside applicants
for space are away behind.
The Buffalo Brewing Company are re-
fitting the handsome grotto in the north
wing, which was such an attraction last
year, and it promises TO be even more in
viting this time.
Ex-Supervisor Greer and assistants are

Of the agricultural and horticultural dis

much expense in sending exhibits to the

comfortably seat 1000 persons, exclusive
