Hard Set of Criminals .

Jefferson City, Mo-, Dec. A.
Thlrty-two convicts from the In
dian Territory were brought here,
Monday, under strong guard Of
deputy United States marshals
Six of the prisoners are full-blood
Indians and cannot speak English.
The gang is one of the hardest set
of criminals ever received here,
being made up largely of negroes
and halfbreeds. The prison au-
thorities have arranged to receive
certain number of federal pris-
oners monthly.

two other Methodist schools in the

two other Methodist schools in the
state, each with a good attend
ance. Can an Arkanas town gel
that far ahead of Vinita and stay
there? | think not.
Of course we hope TO secure aid
from other sources; but should we
fail, can Vinita afford to let this
opportunity pass? Are the profits
on $50 900 to 100000 a year too
small for the business men of town
to give the matter little thought?
Some town in this or Oklahoma
territory will have the college.
Let us notice some of the ad-
vantages that we have over any
other place or school in the con-
ference. Our school is free from
debt. 1t is the only one that has
the advantage OF two trunk lines
of railway, affording easy access
from all parts of the country. 1t
is the only one situated in the
northeastern part of the territory,
and it is fact that the majority of
schools draw the bulk of their pa
tronage from the south and west.
We have as healthy a location,
doubtless, as can be found in any
live town in the territory. We
have easy access to the town and
the churches, yet we enjoy all the
quiet and freedom of the country
The college farm is of material aid
in the way of helping to meet ex-
penses, and insures US all the land
we will ever need for building and
grounds without being crowded. !.
We have an inexhaustlble supply
of good water, and a tract of land
that must be used for religious and
educational purposes in order to
remain the property of the church.
| hope every person interested
in the welfare of the school and
the prosperity ofVinita, especially
those who are anxious to see a real
college at home, will give the mat
ter their serious consideration.

the outlaw was asleep. He was
placed in Jail here.
This man has long eluded the

The arrest of Nose Miller in the
Greenleaf mountains in the south
erE portion of the Cherokee ma
ton yesterday by deputy marshals
revives interest in another one OF
the all-round bad men of the In
dian Territory. Nose Miller as
sassinated VIM. Madden at Braggs
station, on the Valley road, some
three years ago, one Sunday morn
ing, and fled to the hills and has
been at large ever sinca, and dur
ing the time has been mixed up in
several hold-ups and killings, in
clnding the murder of Taylor, the
postmaster at Melvin, last sum-
mer. The widow of VIM. Mad
den now lives in Vinita, having
moved here from Braggs a few
months ago to save her son, a
young man about 90 years of age,
from assassination at the hands of
Nose Miller, who bad made more
than one attempt to put the young
man out of the way, as he is

the matter of the murder of. VIM.

A PRIZE WITHIN REACH.
The College and the Towns
Opportunity.

tional commission of the NJ. K.
church South, plans were devised
relating to the schools under the
auspices of the Methodist church,
having for their aim better con-
dition of affairs in our educational
Interests. A course of study was
recommended for the academies or
preparatory schools which will fit
pupils for entering college with a
view to taking degree. There is
to be no more effort to maintain
an indefinite number Of colleges in
the same territory, as is explained
in the following recommendations
to the Board of Education: "We
recommend that the annual con-
ference, or conference of each state
unite upon one college only for
boys and girls. We believe it Bet
ter to maintain one strong, well
equipped college, than two weak
colleges, one for boys, and one for
girls.
Under this regime there will be
no more of the so-called colleges
conferring degrees when they are
only doing preparatory work.
Another important recommend
alton was made which bids fair to
become law. "We recommend
that no institution be classified as
college unless it have;
(a) The support, and become
the only college, of at least one
annual conference.
(b) A permanent income, not
counting tuition fees, of at least
$1,000. This income may arise
from the interest on an endow-
ment fund, from conference assess
ments, private contributions, or
otherwise, but should be so secured
as to guarantee the permanent
support of the institution.
All schools belonging to- the
Methodist church not meeting
these requirements must be con-
tent to do only academic or pre-
paratory work.
This school must be a college or
an academy. Which shall it be?
Win the people of Vinita rally to
the front and help make this the
college of the Indian mission con-
ference? Will you have your sons
and daughters given their collegiate
education and obtain their degrees
in your home school or will you
send them to Muskogee or Ard
more? Both of these towns will
make strong efforts to secure the
college. Let US see what a
real college would be worth
to Vinita from financial
point of view. Making our
estimates all quite low, we
ought, in very few years, to have
at least 200 boarders. They
would spend on an average $3.50, 90
each, most of which would remain
in Vinita. and this amounts to the
nice little sum Of $4,000 a year.
Add to this the $1,000 annual in
come to be used for improvements
and repairs, the money brought
and invested by people who would
move here to educate their child
rem, and the amount kept al home
by those who would send else
where to school, and the amount
would be increased considerably. /
