Altar George TavIor.

Deputy United States Marshal Frank
Canton left Guthrie, Okla, few morn
ings ago, with four assistants, to try
and locate George Taylor, the murderer
of the Meeks family. Taylor is sup
posed to be in hiding in the Creek
Nation, where Canton claims to have
seen and spoken to him. The escaped
murderer, it is said, has organized
gang of outlaws which promises
to become as dangerous as those
headed by Dalton, Doolin and others.
A few days ago Canton reported that
Taylor was living in an Indian camp,
having taken up the life of the red
man. He said that he had made an
effort to get Taylor to talk, but did
not succeed. Canton learned that the
Meeks murderer appeared among the
Indians ON September 10, having gone
into the Nation by way of the Sac and
Fox agency.

MISSOURI STATE NEWS.
The Baamlsz a1urdeE.

The murder of Mrs. John Baum1ey,
which occurred at Arkoe. October 2.
seems at last to be in a fair way of
being revenged. On the 7th 16-year-
old boy was arrested and charged with
the crime. Three days before a young
woman was taken in custody for the
murder, but subsequent events, how
ever, showed that she was innocent,
and that confession was obtained while
she was h$sterical.
A mcb was organized during the
night near Arkoe, and it was 10 move
On Maryville at two o'clock in the
morning. But for the interference of
John Kirk, a brother of Mrs. BaumIey,
who is a prominent business man in
Maryville, and relatives in the vicinity
of Arkoe, the Jail would have been as
saulted. The tender years of the boy
and the pleading of the boys parents
and Mrs. Baumley's relatives finally
swayed the mob.
The nerve displayed by the Rasco
boy Immediately after the murder and
up to the time he confessed was re-
markable in the extreme. During the
three days the body of Mrs. Baumley
lay at the family house awaiting burial,
the boy helped around the house and
conducted the visitors in and out He
talked freely of the murder, and was
loud in his condemnation of the MUIR
derer.

the rich glow of co1ored lights illum-

The brilliant and regal ball was the

out of life when such evening of en-
chantment are possible in the closing

mankind back back to the days when
the race dreamed and was happy in
