Il is not generally known that Cen
eral Washington was killed in a most
cruel and oarbarous manner, but II is
nevertheless, tact.
Al the tine of his death, Washington
was in 3is sixsy-eighth year. a strong,
robust man. On December y, 1893, ne
contracted q severe cold and pneumonia
threatened Two doctors were sum-
mOned, and, in accordance with the alb
surd custom Of those days, they pro-
ceeded TO bleed their patient. Nearly a
quart CT blood was 1aSen from his veins.
until at last he begged them 10 let him
die in peace. He died that same day
not from disease, but actually from loss
Of blood. He was killed by ignorance.
In these days any doctor who treated
a patient as Washington was treated,
would be indicted for manslaughter.
TIE world has moved since then, ana
there has been a complete revolution in
the practice Of medicine. Instead of aow-
ering the vital forces by thinning the
blood, advanced physicians now en-
deavor TO build up the strength OF their
patients. They employ only the latest
and most scientific remedies
And yet, in spite of this fact, we find

ioned medicines. They forget that chem

ST JOHNS CARNIVAL AND BAZAAR
Closes With Crowded Hail-Briillant and
DellgIltful FInaie.


Garfield hall was crowded last night
with one of the most happy and sociable
| audiences ever assembled there. Any one
VINO did not enjoy the evening must have
been in very Ill health or intensely
gloomy spirits. The carnival of 1897 will
De an event 10 be remembered and Mrs.
Edward Vail and her corps Of charming
and energetic assistants deserve great
| commendation and credit. Indeed, there
are few cities east or west that could
eclipse the culture, refinement and de-
lightful socia.bility that has character
lied the large audiences at the carnival
each evening for the past four days.
Last nights program equalled in beauty
and artistic posing anything ever at
tempted in Wichita. Those in charge,
Mr.. Israel. Mrs. Clark and Miss Gertrude
Jackson, displayed rare ability. The fol-
lowing pictures were presented, and no
paintings in the salons of Berlin or Paris
could display on canvass any more beau
ty OF form and feature than was display
ed upon the stage last evening. The
American Girl was the first beautiful
picture in the great frame before the au-
dience. Miss Edith Moffatt was the SUD-

COUNTY OFFICIALS INDICTED.
Perry. Ok, Dec 12-Much excitement
exists in Payne county over the indict-
,nent OF county officers by the grand
jury. Judge Dale Of the First Oklahoma
Judicial District and Chief Justice of the
Oklahoma Supreme Court, opened court
there several days ago, and the grand
jury has been investigating tne acts OF
the county officers, and yesterday the
probate judge of the county %as indicted
for making false entries on his records,
and Judge Dale suspended him from Of
fee. TIE sheriff. j. NJ. Atherton, was
also indicted for misconduct. The people
OF Payne county are making great com
plants about exorbitant tax levies.
Dave Sprague is well known in Wic,l-
ita and has some property here that was
once worth not less than $4,000, but that
was in boom times. He was arrested
here in 1890 by Sheriff Cone on the
charge of stealing a horse at Hesston,
Kansas. Wallace Gleason, then sheriff
of Mcpherson county, came here for
Sprague and was warned by Mr.. Cone
that the prisoner would get loose or
break jail If he was not handled rigor-
ously. And he did. He broke out of the
Mcpherson Jail twice before trial and
while being taken TO the penitentiary
after conviction ne got away from the
officer and jumped off passenger train
at full speed.
The Mrs. Barrett mentioned is Dave
Sprague's mother. She lives north of
town. Who Brown is nobody knows

Jim Oliver, but it is thought that he is
dead. The strange part of the letter is

schoolmates about the same age, at

into the yard, and seeing Robbins swing
the lasso, he ran. Robbins followed on
his pony, throwing the rope at Fishers
head.
Fishers arm was caught in the loop

a hundred yards. tearing and bruising
his flesh till he seemed dead. The boys

REPORTED SHOOTING

Two Travellers Persist In Hunting for
Quail.
It was reported in the city last night
that a shooting scrape had taken place
on the Ninnescah river, west of town,
but there was no way of confirming the
report as none Of the officers had been
notified of the trouble. The run1or was
that a man by the name of GTaber had
ordered the travellers off his place for
shooting quail, and when they persisted
in shooting GRADER went and got his gun
and shot one Of the men in the leg. The
rumor is given for what it Is worth.
