He Made the Indian Chill
dren Sick.

A Largo, San Juan county, correspond
ent writes the San Juan Index under date
of the 10th inst:
"A few days ago foul murder was
committed among the Navajoes at or
near the Hendricks cow camp on the
Chaco. The story of the crime is as fol-

being witch, as it is alleged by the In
dians that he made their children sick
every time he came around. When finally

Government Revenues-NO Present

Washington, May 23.-The work in
connection with the annual contracts
at the New York warehouse for

unhesitatingly that an extra session OF
congress is out of the question. Nor is
there the least likelihood of another bond

to be increased than diminished during

which will begin to come in from renewed
liquor licenses, will largely augment the
revenues even should the customs not
meet present expectation. All licenses
expire on June 80 in each year, and judg-

the lowest point consistent with good
business principles.
Commissioners Miller of the internal
revenue bureau, will dismiss at once

RUSH FOR LANDS.
Opening Of the kickapOO Reservation
Hundreds Of BOOmers-Whisky
Camp Raided.

Kansas City, May %. A special to the
Star from Oklahoma city says: All last
night the road to Sweeney's bridge, on
the edge of the Klckapoo country, was
crowded with horsemen and vehicles. The
dust was sitting as the horses dragged
through the deep sand and stumbled
over the roots of trees in the road. The
crowd filled up the yard at Sweeney's
bridge road house and extended back
along the road for a mile. When day
broke every one got out to cook coffee
and hitched to await the race at noon.
Down the river for miles the boomers
were camped on the edge of the bluff
leading down to the north of the Cana
dian -iver. Their rush will be most dan
gerous down the eighteen-foot enbank-
ment and across the river, in many
places too deep to ford, and up the bank
on the opposite side through a belt of
timber and then across the famous
Kickapoo fats for claims.
Before noon many had crowded over
thsr liver apd entered the country and
their names we're jotted down by the
honest home-seekers, who obeyed the law
and waited.
SCHOOL LANDS OFFERED.
Guthrie, 0. T.-Gov. Renfrow this
morning issued proclamation offering
10000 acres of school land in the Kick
apoo reservation for lease for five years
from October l, 1895, bids to be received
until June 10. This will give disap-
pointed boomers chance to get some of
the fine land, about all of which was
taken for school LANDS.
WHISKY CAMP RAIDED.
Kansas City, Mo.-A special to the Star
from Guthrie, 0. r., says: Late last night
half dozen deputy United States mar
shals raided camp of whisky peddlers
on the line of the Kickapoo reservation,
four miles north of Shawnee, and in the
fight that followed two peddlers we're
killed and two wounded.

pondering over his Sunday school lesson,
the story of the crucifxion, resurrection,

reprove him for wrongful act she did
so by appealing to his love for his father.
"You shouldn't act like that" said she.
"That sort of behavior would break your

you will be the death of your father"

Surgical operations that take the life
