A THRILLING CONTEST
In the Black Jacks of the In
dian Territory
By Cowley COunty's Guardian
With Robbers.

INDEPENDENCE, March 2S-Sheriff ].
w. Skinner, of CowIey county, had an
exciting contest with two highwaymen
in the Sac and Fox country that nearly
cost him his life.
Mr. Skinner was on the track of the
man Hawkins. who is in trouble over
some mortg2ged property and had traced
him to this part of the territory. He
went to Guthrie and hired a livery team
10 drive scross the country to Parkland.
Late in the afternoon, probably about
o'clock, he approached rAvine in the
black Jacks about thirty miles east and
south of Guthrie when he noticed two
horses tied in the timber off the road
some distance, and like a flash it oc-
CURED n him ne was liable to be held up
He carries a A callbre six shooting
Colts revolver and he took this from his
belt as the horses went down the hill,
: holding it in his right hand between his
knees with his finger on the trigger, and
drove with the other hand. just as the
nurses reached the bottom and started up
the incline on the other side the expect
ed happened and the robbers appeared
from The bushes, one a heavy set man
with dark mustache and q beard about
four weeks old, on the right side, and the
other tall slender man, on the left side.
The man on the left side caught the
who was lightly in front of MIR. Skinner
covered him with his revolver and or
dered him to throw up. At the instant
the horses stopped MIR. Skinner quick as
lightning raised his gun and fired, the
man he was shooting at firing at the
same time, the two shots making a stimuli
taneous report. Mr.. SINNERS shot
took effect either in the arm the
shoulder, for the man dropped his gun
and his arm fell limp to his side.
At the sound of the gun the horses
lunged forward and knocked the second
man down, both horses and buggy pass
ing over his PROSTATE form, and it was
impossible to tell whether he was hurt
OF not, but just as he was disappearing
over the brow of a hill Mr.. Skinner
looked back and saw him on his hands
and knees as if in an effort to get up
The other fellow however was game
all the way through, and when his
right arm went back on him he
used his left TO good advantage and
fred five shots more at the buggy and
its occupant either with the same gun or
another. Mr.. Skinner also emptied his
revolver as he left at the men, but thinks
he did not hit either one after the first
shot.
The bullet fired by the desperate cut
the top button from Mr. SINNERS vest,
tore its way through a leather covered
book in his vest pocket, went through
his coat at the pocket, through his over
coat and through the back of the buggy

Has Turned Around and He Will
Not Send for Cooley.
Manager Diddlebock Has Order
ed Secretary Muckenfuss
TO WAIT AWHILE.
LANCE, the Great Fielder of Chi
cagO, Also Kicking.
Delehanty is the Only Fielder
Who Will Get the Limit.

The wind must be blowing hard down
in 81. Louis, for it has turned Chris Won
der Ahe's indicator around again, and
now ne says Secretary Muckenfuss will
not start for Topeka tonight after Dick
Cooley.
The St. Louis magnate had planned
carrying Cooley away by stealth. and
when the St. Louis reporters jumped onto
his scheme and spread it broadcast, he
was wild. He don't want the public to
know that ne is Knocking to ball play
er. His principle is, its all right to do
anything, if you can keep the public
from finding it out.
The scheme which "Der Boss" has
mapped out for Muckenfuss was that he
was to arrive in Topeka tomorrow with
out "makinfuss" disguised as a gentle
man-that is, unless he got sidetracked
in Kansas City. He was to lie in wait
until evening, when he was to chlo=o-
form the police, break into Cooley's
house and carry away the beautiful left
fielder. But ''there's many slip"
The St. Louis Republic says that Dele
hanty is about the only fielder who will
receive the limit this season. Hamilton
will probably not. Jesse Burkett,
| who led the league in batting last
year will draw but $4,000. "Big Bill"
LANCE of Chicago has been offered but
2,20O, yet the Republic tries to show by
records that LANCE is better than Cooley.
| 1t might be mentioned, also that LANCE
is kicking like bay steer over his offer
aud wants the limit
The wonder is that Chris has kept
| Cooley as long as he has, for the sgreat
Topeka player is not German. Think
| of it-Von der Abe, Diddle bock, Muck
enfuss, Breitenstein. HietZ, Ehret, etc.
