A TRAIL OF BLOOD
An Indian Desperate Who Was
Finally Shot to Pieces.
TWO OF HIS VICTIMS ARE DEAD
Passengers Relieved Of The ir Money and
Jewelry and One Man Killed Be-
cause He Had No M 'ney.

WAoGoNEE, l. T., June 10.-There was
a robbery and sensatiora al tragedy en-.
acted on the road between Fort Gibson
and Talequah, where the big Cherokee
payment is in progress. A stage load
of passengers was some miles out
from Talequah en- route to the Fort
Gibson railway station, when Lev:
Sanders, 4 desperate Cherokee charac-
ter, who was on the front seat with the
driver, shot him in the. side with his
pistol and ordered him to hold up. He
then made the passengers get out and
relieved them of $40 and some jewelry.
One man from Texas who declined to
give his name was shot through the
breast by the Indian. He had no money
to give up. The wounded man is now
in Fort Gibson In a critical condition.
The robber then left, walking through
the woods in the direction of Table
quah. He found a man and an Indian
boy herding cattle and began shooting
at the boy and killed him. He then
mounted the horse the boy was riding
and again emerged into the road, whe1s
he came upon two wagons containin
some men and women. He shot int =
one of them and killed Mrs. Duncan, a
lady connected with one of the best
families in the Cherokee nation. Her
son, Levi Duncan, began shooting at
Sanders as. did the man in the other
wagon, but he was getting away on his
horse when young Duncan got Win
chester and shot the horse. Sanders
was then atoot and could not escape.
He was literally shot to pieces.

For Half Century Mary Labor Had Boon
Blind, Deaf and Dumb.
JOLIET, Ill, June 1O.-Mary Labor,
aged "a years, died at the county farm.
In 1s49 Joliet was visited by 4 circus in
which was star equestrienne. Her
riding delighted every one and she was
applauded to the echo. While In Joliet
she was taken sick and was compelled
to leave the show. All her gaudy
friends Of the circus deserted her and
she was thrown on the world in her
sickness. The poorhouse was her only
refuge. The trouble proved to be
typhoid fever, and for weeks the victim
struggled against death. She was
finally triumphant, but the disease left
her deaf, dumb and blind. All efforts
to get at her friends we're unavailing
and she remained at the county house
nearly half century not seeing, not
hearing, not speaking. The woman was
70 beautiful that twentysfour years ago
a visitor to the poor house said she was
the most beautiful woman he ever saw.
