~ NNIE ROWLAND, a woman OF
Ia %. the mother OF four children,
is in custody in this city and today
will be taken to Ft. Smith on the very
serious charge of murder. The family
have been living for year or more on
farm nine miles northeast Of Welch,
and about an equal distance from
Chetopa. Monday noon the woman
became enraged at her husbands ia
ther, James Rowland, aged 6S, and shot
him three times with 3S-calibre pis-
tol, once in the arm and twice in the
body. He died about O'Clock Tues
day morning and was buried yesterday.
Ike Teeples, deputy marshal at this
city, was apprised OF the affair and
arrested the woman Tuesday, and she
has been kept at the residence of Capt.
White, pending the receipt of the
writ. 1t is said the difficulty between
the woman and her father-in-law was
OF the most trivial character, resulting
In the lie being passed. The woman
claims self defense and says further
that about two years ago the old man
tried to cut her with a knife. Mrs.
Bloomfield, neighbor woman, was
present at the time and asserts that
the victim made no hostile demonstra-
tion. The husband takes his wife's
part and says the old man was child
ish and hard to get along with. The
family came from Shawneetown, Kan
sas, and the victim was the father OF
Mrs. John Chouteau, Of this city.

~ Asst SABBATH'S SERVICES
la probably ended the pastoral du-
ties of Rev. S. A. Caldwell with the
Presbyterian church at this place.
Mr.. Caldwell has been in our midst
nearly two years as pastor of the Pres
byterian church, and is an able, earn
est and faithful minister. He has
distinguished himself in this commu-
nifty as being a man that preached a
pure and unadulterated gospel, and
who put into daily practice what he
preached. In the providence of God
Mr.. Caldwell goes to other fields, and
to labor among other people, but he
goes with the love and esteem of this
whole community. We feel that in
giving up Mr.. Caldwell we lose from
our moral and christian atmosphere
one of the purest and noblest Of men.
We shall miss his gentle, childlike
bearing, his quiet and unselfish devO-
tiOn to the cause in which he has en-
listed, and the kindly interest he man
ifested in those who came under his
influence as pastor. Probably no man
who ever lived In Vinita stood so near
the children, or understood the
younger members of his flock so well
as did he, and there is many sad lit
tie heart that never in after years will
forget one whom they loved as their
true and trusted friend. Mr.. Caldwell
has accepted a call to the church at
Shawnee, and will begin his labors
there at once.

Adair does not lay claim to everything in

she does say a thing is so. you may go on
about your business and say its so.too. Well,
we say we have school second to no un-
graded school in the Indian Territory. and
the splendid showing made at the recent ex-
animation and the closing exercises or enter
tainment following lend a high color of truth
and justice to our claim. Our young hope
fuls can learn. and the efforts of Mrs. Jennie
Parks and Miss Lena Jones, who have gone
home TO Missouri. have surely been of the
highest order. and they certainly took with
them the love OF their school and kindest re-
