Blake Reports Case TO Police, They Search
Him and Find the Gooda

Mr.. S. C. Blake. who claims Iowa as
his home, went into the police headquar-
ters yesterday afternoon with his clothes
buttOned around a very comfortable
Jag" He was accompanied by a man
whom he called his friend and who gave
the name OF o. L. Cowan. Mr.. Blake, in
an incoherent manner related to Captain
Shields that he had been touched on
East Douglas avenue for $40. Bedford
Wood happened to be present when the
two came into the office. He told Blake
tc come into the private office, which he
did. Blake then informed Mr.. Woods
that heswas rather suspicious of his
friend, thinking that perhaps his new
found friend had been the one who had
obtained his money. Mr.. Woods took
both of them into the court room and
had both Of them searched. The first
pocket that Charley Davis put his hand
into contained the lost pocketbook. 1t
had been in the owners possession all
the time but his brain had become some
what muddled from THE effects of the IL
quor. They were allowed TO depart, both
of them in a very happy state Of mind.

remarkable town. That country will be
opened up for settlement within year,
and McAlister will be strong candidate
for the capital"
won't that territory be combined
with Oklahoma If 1T is thrown open?"
mo. Toe business men Of McAlister
and surrounding towns do not think so.
Oklahoma is big enough and rich enough
for a state Of itself and the territory is
as large with certain diverse interests
and it is not probable that the two will
be put together
What makes you think the country
will be opened?"
ct is in the air at McA1ister, at Krebs,
and Hartnhorn, Atoka and other towns.
I attended banquet in McAlister Sat
urday night, at which there were forty
representative men, and all the toasts
and responses were full of sentiment for
opening. They not only favored OPEN

There are number of good towns
around McAlister and the people are

Shadow Of Herself
Stomach Was Too Weak
to Retain Food
A Complete Cure Effected by
Hoods Sarsaparilla
Now Enjoying the Best Of Health,
With Digestion Perfect.

"My mother was subject to sick head
aches and indigestion for over a year.
She was unable to stand for any length
of time, and was obliged to stay in dark
room as she could not bear the light. She
had no appetite whatever and her stomach
was SO weak she could not retain what
food she did eat. She also had severe
pains in her head. She suffered so much
that she became but the shadow of her
self. One day 1 happened to read tes-
timonial about Hoods Sarsaparilla. 1t
Sounded So Truthful
I persuaded her to try this medicine.
Before finishing the first bottle there was
an Improvement in her condition. She no
longer threw up her food and her head
ache was not as severe. She took in all
four bottles of Hoods Sarsaparilla and
several boxes of Hoods Pills and regained
her weight. She is now enjoying the best
Of health. Her digestion is good and she
can eat almost anything she wishes. She
is az years old and says she feels as well
as when she was 16. Hoods SarsaparilIa
made complete cure in her case"
