E9S NJ. MILLS was arrested recently
10 on complaint of Swafford Bros.
for secreting property, they alleging
him to be a partner of Mills Bros.
Last week, after having spent four
days in jail and several Others in the
custody of the marshal, Mills was dis
charged on an order of Judge Thomas,
before whom the matter was taken on
a writ of habes corpus. The defendant
satisfied the court that he was not a
partner in the firm of Mills Bros. and
had not been for thirty days previous
to the time Lee Mills gave the Mills
Bros. note, which was the basis of the
trouble. Lee Mills disappeared i'm
mediately after the election and has
not been seen since.

S1SHE STATEMENT made in tn

t1SHE STATEMENT made in this
T. paper last week detailing the
controversy in the city council the
previous Saturday night was incorrect
in some respects. Our information
was that the city marshal had collect
ed the circus license amounting to
$50, in cash, and put the same in his
pocket and turned in the amount in
city scrip. The facts are that Mayor
Tom Burlington collected the $50 cir
Gus license and turned it over to the
marshal and furnished a portion of
the city scrip paid in by the marshal
in lieu Of il. The controversy in the
city council was not over the matter
OF collecting the circus license, but
arose over the question as TO whether
or not the marshal was to continue to
receive ten per cent of the delinquent
taxes collected. A vote was finally
taken and three members voted against
allowing the marshal ten per cent OF
said taxes, and it now transpires that
it was simply question of law that
should have been settled promptly by
ruling Of the mayor, which would
haYe dispensed with any further de-
bate. The supposition is that the
fur will fly at the next meeting, as
there still exists difference of opin
ion on the matters in controversy.

t4SHE TRIAL Of case this week

S3SHE TRIAL Of a case this week
r before Judge Mcclure against
John M.Ingram, city marshal of Pryor
Creek, charged with disturbing the
peace of Mrs. Sarah Seely, has at
tracted considerable attention, and
about all the population OF the little
city twenty-five miles down the katy"
seem TO be in attendance as witnesses
or spectators. On the second of the
present month Ingram went to the
home of Mrs. Seely about nine in the
evening for the purpose of catching
an old gentleman named Milligan
there. Ingram claimed that Mrs.
Seely was conducting house of pros
titution, and wanted to arrest Milli-
gan. When Ingram found that his
man was in the house he tore off the
wire screen from one OF the windows
and sprang into the building. Milli-
gan seized a pole used for punching
cattle in cars and tried to brain the
marshal who stopped him by drawing
his revolver and threatening to shoot.
The woman and her two children
jumped from window and escaped,
and pandemonium seemed to reign for
awhile. Milligan claims that the
woman is all right and that he was
courting her. There was no lack of
witnesses to prove every proposition.
1t seemed to be a general row in which
the whole community was dragged in,
tho unwillingly perhaps.

There are no empty houses in Vini-
ia, and if there were, there would be
several people trying to rent each one
of them. The greatest demand for
houses comes from country people who
are moving to town to get in reach
of the schools.
Capt. Cobb's racing outfit got home
from Springfield Thursday. The Cap
tain has discovered that all the mean
men do not live in Vinita, by a whole
lot. His horse was set back to third
place in race, for running, when in
fact he lost instead of gained by the
break.
D. II. Wilson and his uncle, DR..
Cave, returned from Arkansas some
days ago and the latter has gone to his
home in Kansas. The gentlemen
went over to look into the lead and
zinc prospects of the country east of
Eureka Springs and secured several
claims.
Judge Thomas has set aside the
verdict of murder in the first degree
found at the last term of the Musko-
gee court against Cyc A. Brown and
ordered a new trial. he ground for
this action was the failure of the gov
ernment to prove the citizenship OF
either party.
1t is reported that the city Gala
boose, in which government prisoners
are at times held, is in terribly filthy
condition. The marshal should direct
an examination of the place and if
such be the facts keep his prisoners
elsewhere until the place is cleaned
up thoroughly.
Reports of prospective train robber-
les had the effect of putting the train
guards back one evening last week.
An effort was made to flag pas

Enquiry has been made regarding
Tom Burnett, a butcher killed by a
horse kick at Chelsea several years
ago and who once lived at Vinita.
1t is said he joined the Knights and
Ladies of the Fireside, an insurance
organization, in this city. Daniels s

City, desire information.
Editor Clawson, of the Chelsea Re
porter, was in the metropolis Monday
on business. Clawson declares he is
not the press correspondent who has
been sending so many ''cock and bull"
stories lately from Chelsea to the city
papers, and we don't think he is,
either. But then, he ought to help
smoke out the faker, whoever he is.

AT the former place it is reported that
waters from the gulf \were blown up
over the townsite to a depth OF six
feet. As Charley Chesney, Mrs. Mil

siderable uneasiness was felt until a

ported.

ttSHE List CHAPTER in the Joo
Il Merrell case was finished at the
Delaware court this week, and doubt
less a number of prominent people in
this city can now breathe sigh of re-
lief 1t will be remembered that
Merrell was charged with burglaIizing
the clerks Office of Delaware district
some two years ago, and after being
arrested escaped from the officers and
fed to Colorado where he remained,
evidently till the coast was clear" at
home. Last spring he was acquitted
in Judge Buffington's court of the
charge of breaking into the aforesaid
Office with a hatchet. This week he
was also acquitted of the charge of
abstracting papers from said Office.
This probably ends a matter about
which great deal has been said, and
a great deal of noise made.
