Mr.. Fawkes gave orders that he was 20 be
received in them even If be himself were

OF Mr.. Fawkss did not seem 20 develop

one occasion, when Mr.. Fawkes and his
son, Major Fawkes, were going out shoot

a skctchlng stool and folio in his hands.
They all walked little way together and
came to place where dead buck was

and their firelocks made a striking group.
MT. Fawkes said: Turner, wish yoa
would make a note Of that for me. IL 10
very picturesque Turner pulled tiny

quickly made what Mr. Fawkes desired.
At night Mr.. Fawkes said Mind, Tur-

THE CINNAMON TREE.
How the Bark l. Gathered and Prepared
For Use.

The cinnamon tree grows to a height Of
from 90 to 80 feet and Is sometimes IS
inches in thickness. The leaves are from
4 TO inches In length, oval shaped
and marked with three principal nerves.
They taste very much like cloves. CHINA
mon flowers are of beautiful silky gray
on the outside and light yellow ON the
inside. The fruit is a small acorn shaped
drupe, and when ripe it is quite brown.
1t is, however, the bark of the CHINA
mon tree that makes IL valuable. The
finest comes from the island of Coyl0n,
where they have two seasons OF cinnamon
harvest The first season begins in April
and the last in November. The branches
of three TO five years growth are cut down,
and the epidermis is carefully scraped
away. Then the bark is ripped up length
wise with a knife and gradually loosened
until it may be easily removed.
The slices OF bark are then placed in
the sun 10 dry, and as they dry they curl
up into quills. The next thing Is TO ex-
anime and arrange the cinnamon accord
ing to its quality. The persons whose
work it is to examine the cinnamon sre
obliged for this purpose to taste and chew
it, although in short time 1t produces a
very painful effect on their mouths and
tongues
As the cinnamon quilts are examined
the smaller ones are inserted into the
larger, and the whole j. then tied up in
bundles weighing about IS pounds each
Ia Ceylon the oil Of cinnamon Is usual
ly prepared by grinding the coarsest pieces
Of bark, soaking this powder In sea water
for two or three days and then distilling.
Two oils pass over, one lighter, the other
heavier than water. philadelphia Times

RoBBING WHOLE TOWNS.
Cook Gang Clean out Watova and
Don't Care Who Knows it.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, Oct. % Last nights
program in the great carnival of crime
which is now holding the boards in the In
Ii4n territory, consisted of the Wholesale
robbery of several small towns In genuine
desperate style by Mr.. Bill Cook. sup
ported by strong and desperate company
IF eight or ten followers. Four men rode
into the town of Watova, !. T., early in
The evening, making their approach known
by promiscuous discharge or fire arms.
The bandits terroriZed the inhabitants and
most of them sought safety in their houses
behind barrichded doors. The outlaws
visited every store in the VILLAGE and ran
the merchants away with Winchesters and
revolvers. They took from the stores all
The money they could find. ami everything
else they wanted. The Watova posUoffice
was robbed of about $50 ia cash and $50 in
stamps.
From Watova the gang ran on to Tala,
ten miles away, where they repeated their
depredations. They rode into the town
and proceeded at once to rob stores right
and left. Every store in the place was
visited and the proprietors compelled to
turn over their cash. The poStofiice was
also robbed of stamps and a small amount
of money. The bandits entered the town
boldly and made DO effort TO conceal their
identity. None were masked. From re-
ports of their description they were I'M
doub tedly the same gang that held up the
Missouri Pacific train At Coreta Siding
Saturday night. 1t is believed that it was
the bandits intention to REQ the Missouri
Pacific passenger train No. 23l at Tala.
While they were holding up the postoffice
the train pulled into the station. The
trainmen were notified of the presence of
the gang and the train was started at once.
The bandits galloped out OF town dis
charging their WinchesterS.

When Napoleon escaped from Elba, Ney
left the king and took sides with his for

the place became too hot for him, and he

PICKED HER MAN
BANK ROBBER IDENTIFIED AMONG
THIRTY PRISONERS.
Mrs. Sawyer Has the Pleasure of Ger
tifying to the Likeness of Man
Who Held q Revolver at Her Head
Two Years Ago-Story of the
Robbery.

Special dispatch to the Daily Eagle
Ell. RENO. o. T., Oct. 23.-Saturday,
Mrs. s. w. Sawyer received word from
d. putty United States Marshal Hargrove
of Oklahoma City that they thought they
bad captured the party who robbed the
El Reno bank July q, 1892.
Mrs. Sawyer was cashier of the bank
and the only one in the bank at the time
of the robbery, her husband being absent
from Ell Reno on business ut the time.
Mrs Sawyer. accompanied by her hus-
band. went to Oklahoma City and picked
rhe robber ont from among thirty other
prisoners. His name is Smith and he is
held by the authorities for couuterfeiting.
Mrs. Sawyer tells the following story OF
the robbery:
On the day of the robbery this man,
Smith, came to the cashiers window and
began to talk with me about FL Reno.
While he was talking to me / heard A noise
behind me. On turning around L saw
man looking into The vault [ turned to
Smith at the window for protection when
he presented a revolver saying. "1f you
speak word will kill you"

was robbed and the men gone. Smiths
accomplish is supposed to be a man named
Crumm. both Mrs. Saver and Deputy
United States Marshal Hargrove. who has
the matter in charge, agreeing IN that
opinion.
Much sympathy is felt for Mrs. Sawyer,
who has given up her house and other pro-
perty to satisfy creditors. She does not
resemble the same woman who was once
the business cashier of the Ell Reno bank.
