When Davis finished speaking,
Rev. Mr.. Lamar, of the Methodist
church made a brief talk telling
how the prisoner had deceived
him; how he (Davis) had denied
the crime up to the last moment.
Mr.. Lamar made an eloquent APP
peal to the young Cherokee boys,
and urged them to take a warning
from the example of the unfortun-
ate man who was about TO meet
his death on account of leading a
wicked life.
When Mr.. Lamar finished, Davis
again walked to the front and said
he had denied his crime to the last
moment in the hope that some.

his innocence as long as there was

FROG DAVIS HANGED,
A Miserable Life IgnominiOusly Ended
on the Tahlequah GallOws.

"Whoso spilleth mans blood,
by man shall his blood be spilled. "
Frog Davis, has fulfilled that
divine injunction. On Friday, at
11:45, in the National prison yard
the slayer of James Musgrove, ex-
plated his crime by dying on the
gallows in behest of the laws OF
his country and his god.
At eleven O'Clock and thirteen
minutes, the condemned man was
brought from his cell, closely
guarded by the prison officials.
His step was firm and demeanor
not that of a man going to his
death. His face was pale, not
with fear, but with long confine-
ment in the prison.
He would not impress one as
being reckless of human life; his
make up is not that of a criminal,
but of an ordinary citizen. He
was a man of small statue, fair
complexion, black headed and
wore a small sandy mustache. His
eyes were gray, large and express.
i've of good intellect.
On the gallows with him were
High Sheriff Roach, Revs. Lamar,
Deter, and Biting, and officials
from the prison.
On being asked by Sheriff Roach
if he had anything to say, he i'm
mediately arose and stepped to the
front of the gallows platform and
spoke as follows:
Il killed James Musgrove and
would have killed Flippin had he
not hidden himself behind a tree;
| could not see him. | shot Mus
grove because he came after me.
~ came back from Saltwater
penitentiary with the intention of
being a man, but they would not
let me-Shave Alberty prosecuted
me for carrying a pistol. | told
them | had just came back from
over the road.
Gentlemen, there never was a
braver man on this stand .han
Frog Davis. Ny uncle told me to
die ike a man.
Il am prepared TO so; | have
read the bible and said my pray
ers for three years. / would have
been a good boy always had the
people only given me an oppor-
tunity-they forced me to do
wrong.
MY intentions, when | first
started out and killed James Mus
grove, was TO show you what a
man is; Bill Cook and Cherokee
Bill would not have been circum-
stance. My friends sent me
telegram, saying that 100 men
were after me. l would have
fought, killed and died like a man
If my friends had been true men;
those whom | took to be my
friends.
II tell you, gentlemen, no one
knows the trouble | have gone
through with: | have suffered ten
thousand deaths in my time.

truders who are to pay rent under
this provision of law and the great
and expensive difficulty for the
nation to collect it, would recon-
mend that the said rent go with
the improvements to the pur-
chaser. | can but conclude that
the collection of this rent, or the
endeavor to do so by the nation,
would prove of little, if any, ad-
vantage to the nation.
In the report of the intruders,
furnished this department by the
Indian office, herewith submitted,
you will see that no negroes are
mentioned.
The letter of the secretary of
the interior to the commissioner
of Indian affairs, August 3, 1895,
gives reasons as follows:
The names of eighty-nine (S9)
feedmen will appear on list No. l,
and alsoson the "Wallace Roll, !"
which has been adjudicated as cor
rect by the court of claims, in the
case hereinbefore referred to, will
also be stricken from the intruder
list.
In cases of the other Cherokee
Freedmen claimants" whose
names are given in No. 2, it ap-
pearing that some ofthem may sub
sequently be found to be entitled
10 be protected in their rights to
remain in the Cherokee nation and
enjoy the privileges of citizens of
that nation, for the reasons set
forth in your letter, these names
will be suspended from the list of
intruders until the status of the
families of such persons can be as
certained and determined by prop
er investigation.
deem the time for legislation
with reference to this class of peo-
pie in our nation would be more
suitable for the regular term of our
national council. More than this,
it may be questionable if anything
of national importance can be done
with reference to them at this time.
From this report you will like
wise see that the total amount
awarded by the board of apprais-
ers and approved by the secretary
of the interior, as compensation to
the intruders for their improve
ments, is s6S, ,645.36. The total
amount set apart by the national
council for this purpose is s250.000
of the Strip land proceeds. After
taking from the remainder a suf-
ficient sum for the removal of in
truders, and other exigencies that
may arise in this matter, | would
recommend that the balance, to-
gether with the amount arising
from the sale of these intruders'
improvements to our own citizens,
be set aside to pay our national
debt.
Herewith l submit for your in
formation upon the subjects of
this message letters of the COM
missioner of Indian affairs to the
secretary of the interior and to
this department, the schedule of
awards of the board of appraisers
and the review of the commission
er of all the cases.
In conclusion l wish to impress
upon you the importance of the
Cherokee people asserting their
just rights in this matter, and of
urging the government of the Unit
ed States to fulfill the most impor-
tant part to us of the consideration
for which the Cherokee people re-
linquished to the government more
than a half of their domain, on
which many of its once homeless
citizens are now enjoying the in
dependence and comforts of homes
of their own.

They re- port very fine passage out and a pleasant visit among their friends in the old country, but a very rough pass age on their home trip. The steamer carried a large number of passengers, most of whom were quite seasick from shortly after they left Liverpool until their arrival in New York. MT. Skin ner is connected with the John Han cock Insurance company of this city and his son, Albert, is a well known also a leading member ofsthe Elmwood Singing club of this city. MT. Albert Skinner brought back several large photo negatives made of the officers, crew and others on the steamer He also reports business as rather dull in England, and that $6 per week is considered good wages among opera tives and others. At the same time prices for the necessaries of life are  try Tobacco was found to be one of the luxuries, one ounce costing five cents in America, costs twenty five cents in England, and the quality was very poor over there at that price. Good board and room at hotel could be obtained for fifty cents per day, S1.25 per day for three persons together. The Skinner family are natives of Eng land and are glad to come back to this city, and say that this country is good enough for them.

4 DANGEROUS NEG Ro.
William W. Brown Arrested for Assaulting
 Derby Farmer.


 Officer Henry Pickering arrested desperate negro yesterday. William W. Brown has been wanted in Shelton since August 10 for assault with intent to kill, Brown was at that time in the employ of Mortimer Hubbell, farmer living on White Hill in Shelton, He was at work feeding the horses in the barn. when Hobart Hubbell, son of his em- ployer, spoke to him, instructing him in his work. This he resented and young Hubbell called his dog, saying. "Tll set him on you" As he said this he picked up the dog in his arms. The dog growl- ed at the negro, who pulled a revolver from his pocket. Without saying 8 mans arms.
 Old MT. ,Hubbell, who was in the eel lar of the barn, came running up at the sound of the shot Just as he ap- peared Brown dashed out of the barn and made for the road Both Hubbells gave chase.
 The negro when he saw he was pur- sued kept firing back without looking again until he had emptied all the chambers of his revolver. His pursuers did not overtake him. Chief Tomlinson of the Shelton police was notified and he in turn notified the New Haven police, as Browns mother, Eliza Brown, lives on Henry street in this city and it was thought that Brown would come here. They surmised correctly, for 1t was here that Brown was arrested yesterday after noon.
 Previous to his being employed by Hubbell, Brown had workd for an old negro in Shelton. With him also he had words and quarrelled, and 1t was said that Brown had purchased the re- volver for the purpose of killing the older negro.
 Chief Tomlinson took Brown to Shell 1 ton last evening.
 Brown is about five feet six inches and active and wiry.
