Such were the surroundings amid which
this literary toiIer of the day that IS gone

perhaps believed in its iteralness. She was
very old, but she retained her wonderful

she was still writing. and writing Well
Mrs. COwden Clarke was perhaps as true
an interpreter of much of Shakespeare as
any one else. She might have made a
notable interpreter of the plays upon the
stage had she turned her life that way, for
she was a marvelously fine actress as an
amateur of the art. but as it is her fame is
more firmly set. In London to-day MRS.

Robbed in Midday.

AOuav chrOnlcleS rODDery Tn PreS- colt that for boldness and daring excels anything in that line that has occurred here for many day. ...
 At l:05 o'clock D. m., the time of day when the greatest number of people are on the streets, William Marks was held up at the entrance of the land office by two men and robbed of S2s5. He had just come from the Bank of Ari- zona, where he had drawn that amount, passed the entrance and started up stairs, when someone from behind him called out Say, I want to see you just moment" Mir. Marks, thinking 1t was someone on business, turned around and started down stairs, when he was confronted with a revolver and the demand: ''I want that money"
 He was too surprised to speak, and handed over the amount he had just drawn, then turned about and rushed up stairs in compliance with the de- mands of the bandits.
 Mir. Marks met Fred Tritle, register of the land office, and told him what had happened. They both proceeded at once down the back stairs and around to Gurley street, to see if the robbers were anywhere in sight. but they had gone. presumably up street in south erly direction.
 Within five minutes after the robbery the sheriff7s office was notified, and Deputy Sheritis Nelson and Munds started with bloodhounds in an effort to trail the robbers.
 X Journal Miner reporter found MT. Marks ar the land office shortly after the hold-up. and he described the men as follows:
 They were both unmasked, the fellow who demanded the money being above the average height, and would weigh perhaps TO pounds and wore no whis' kers beyond a weeks growth of beard.

A Sheep King.

James A. May, a sheep king of Ari- zona, with headquarters at Flagstaff, is at the Brown hotel. in company with his bride, to whom he was united at the old home of Mir. May in South Carolina. MT. May is man of distinguished appearance. and after amassing a for tune is thinking seriously of retiring from active work on the range and con fining his investments to mines. Twenty years ago he was resident of Denver. He was connected with one of the local railway offices, but was swept to Lead vile by the carbonate excitement, finally winding up as contractor of the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific, after which he drifted into sheep raising.
 1T am of the opinion,' said he yesrer- day, "that the sheep industry will never be what it has been on the ranges of the west. In Arizona, per haps the best sheep country of the con- tinent. although our wool carries more grease and is of not so fine quality as wool raised farther north, the sheep thieves are menace to the business. Losses from thieving are enormous. The only remedy will be in hanging. I am in favor of summary punishment to offenders, and we will never be clear of thieves until some of the leaders have their necks stretched. Sheep raising is hard work, and as a man grows old he begins to look around for something that will bring in quicker returns. My partner will look after the sheep, and will cast about for something in the shape of a gold or copper mine. ."--Den- yer News.

Muskogee, Ind. r., Jan. 10. = An
alarming state of riot prevails in the
Seminole nation, and unless immediate
steps are taken by the United States
authorities bloody Indian uprising
may result. This is on account of the
burning Of two Indians by whites for
the murder and outrage of farmers
wife Jan. 5.
Late last night DR.. G. p. Linn, chief
physician of the Seminole nation, tel
egraphed to both Indian Agent Wis
dom and Marshal Bennett for assis-
lance in quelling the state Of war that
prevails in the nation. He confirmed
the news of the stake burnings, and
gave the names of the sufferers, Lin
coin McGeisey and Palmer Samson,
two young SeminoleS.
Both the Indians came from respec-
table Seminole families and their fear
full death has aroused their friends and
relatives to frenzy. DR.. Linn had just
arrived from the scene of the burning
and stated that both bodies were
burned and mutilated in a most horri-
BILE manner and are unrecognizable.
All the authorities here recognize
that the situation is nearer that bor-
dering upon dangerous Indian up
rising than any in recent years, and
are taking prompt measures to quell it.

Two Seminole HaLf-Breeds Meet n

Fort Smith, Ark, Jan. 10. = Justice
in a more horrible form than that
melted out to Henry Smith at Paris,
Tex, was administered by mob in
the Oklahoma border to J. Marcus
McGeisey and Palmer Simpson, two
Seminole Indians. They were charged
with murder, their victim being Mrs.
James Simmons, a respectable farm
er's wife living in Oklahoma. The
crime was a most revolving one and
the criminals were punished in a most
revolving manner. Mrs. Simmons
was assaulted and murdered. The
body was horribly mutilated. The
crime SO enraged the neighborhood
that nearly the entire populace turned
out to hunt down and punish the
guilty parties. After securing the
prisoners the mob set fire to McGei-
Sey's house and barn and did not
leave until they saw all of his pos
sessions reduced to ashes. The pris-
OnerS were then carried back across
the line into Oklahoma Territory, and
near the scene of the crime they were
executed by Judge Lynch'S order in
the most horrible manner that human
minds could conceive. They were
burned at the stake. The Indians met
their doom with the usual stoicism of
their race After life was extinct the
mob allowed the fires to die down
and they then dispersed to their
homes Great uneasiness exists along
the Oklahoma border, and the impress
sion prevails that much more blood
shed will follow the work of the mob.
