ROADS AND WALKS.


 The work of filling up and repairing the roads about town still continues, as indeed it should for a long time yet, as there are many streets about town in very bad condition. The work should not all be confined to the streets, but the as we'll. Some of them in their present rough condition are disgrace to the borough, and it is doubtful if 8 COW would walk over them if she could have any choice in the matter. It will rain sometimes, and those walks, which are constructed of nothing but dirt, will wash out, but if dirt is to continue to be the constructive material the proper care should be exercised to keep them up in shape.

TERRILL MURDER CASE.
TRANSFERRED FROM STILL
WATER TO CHANDLER.
Court at stiilwater-Judge Dale Keeping
Up His Lick-Has Them Dancing
Seven Hands Round.

Lou Pitts, clerk Of the district court,
returned last night from saltwater.
where he has been attending court for
the past week Judge Dale, he says,
is doing business in the same old way
over there. A large number of cases
have been disposed of, several having
been tried and othe.s going off the
do ket on motion. demurrer, etc
A bout fifteen civil and over twice a.
many criminal cases have thus been
got out % the way.
A complicated condition exists there
in regard to most of the territorial
criminal cases. IL arose from an ir-
regularity in the last April term of
court at that place. Judge Green, IL
appears from the record, after the be
ginning of the term, adjourned court
and returned TO Guthrie and opened
court here about May /.
Going back to Saltwater he again
convened court and received the re-
port of the grand jury, embracing a
large mum ber of indictments. Judge
Dale's position is that the converting
OF the court here ipso facto put an end
to the Saltwater term and that ali
business done there afterward is void.
While he did not so rule, he indicated
his theory of the situation, and Coun'
ty Attorney King, in order to avoid
any embarrassment, is reindicting the
parties before the present grand jury
and dismissing the old cases. This
will necessarily continue some of the
cases till next term.
The Terrill case was transferred to
Lincoln county, now in Judge Scotts
district, on change of venue, applied
for by the prosecution.
The case of Elijah Samples. who was
indicted for murder last week will be
tried this term.
saltwater presents n scene of activ-
ity during court time, the town being
full of Indians and witnesses from the
Indian country.
Judge Dale expects TO clear the
docket in two more weeks, in which
event he will have weeks vacation
before the opening of the court at
Perry, which takes place on the 18th
day Of December.

PLASTER PARIS SCRAP.

An Italian Vendor, Plaster Paris Cat and
Live Dog Furnish a Story.
Yesterday afternoon an Italian ven
dor of plaster paris dogs and cats
dropped off the Santa Fe train and
called at a house near the depot with
an eye to disposing of some of his
stock After ringing at the front door
and getting no response, he started
for the side entrance, leaving a large
plaster paris cat ana pug dog on the
veranda.
He had scarcely passed ont of sight
when the house dog came strolling
leisurely around the house to the spot
where the plaster animals stood
awfully solemn. The dogs quick eye
caught what he must have considered
intruders, for he instantly bristled and
prepared to do battle.
His approach was very wary, and he
evidently looked with suspicion on the
immovability of the enemy, for he
would make a quick bound forward
and then as quickly back, repeating
this several times. A LEADER reporter
was passing the house at the time and
he halted to witness what promised to
be circus Finally the live canine
seemed to comprehend that the dog
and eat lacked ginger, for, with one
grand. supreme charge, he Pounced
upon the inanimate animals, scatter
ing them TO the four winds of heaven
Just as the vendor appeared on the
scene. The dog was in the act Vf
shaking the plastic Intervals ont Of the
imitation when the dago took hand
in the 'mbroglio and things grew ex-
ceedingly interesting
Four minutes later the man from the
land OF maccaroni took a flying leap
over the fence and went up the hill
swearing in most chaste Italian, while
the dog closed one eye and placidly
ehewed the ear of the plaster cat

HE CALLED ANNIE"


But IL was no Go, and the Band Played

A story has just leaked out and it is
good, too. 1t happened few days
ago and is about like this:
Two ladies with several small child

made lengthy cali. When they
started home, their horse, which was
full of life and oats, began to cut up
and dance iigs of all natioualities. The
ladies turned west for mile, but the
further they went the worse became
the situation. Meeting gentleman,
one lady, white with fright, begged
that he take her and the baby home.
Arrived near the bridge, she found she
had jumped from the frying pan into
the fire, for the gentleman's horse per-
formed wonderful gyrations that far
out did the other hors9. So she alighte ted
and walked across. That man had
been out duck hunting against his
wife's will, and that faithful wife, all
dressed in style. awaited her lords re-
turn on the bridge. Imagine her rage
when he came late and another woman
with him. lie tried to explain-called
Annie, Annie" but it was evident a
divorce was imminent. The engine
screeched, but not more loudly than
did Annie's heart beat. 1t was ali
ended right at last, but Chicago law

been there.
