An Awful Act.

An Atoka, +. T., special says:
A shocking tragedy occurred here
Tuesday night at 0 o'clock, and the
town of Atoka is much worked uI
over it. The facts in the case
are as follows:
Ambrose Smith. the little sor Of
c. R. Smith, was playing in the
street with number of little fell
lows about his own size. They
were playing at a game they called
'tally-ho," when they met Jim
Hale, whom it is alleged fred on
the boys, the bullet from his gun
striking the Smith boy, the ball
passing clear through his body.
Willing hands nearby picked the
boy up and carried him to his
home, about forty yards away, ,
where medical attention was sum
moned. The wound was fatal and
the boy died this morning at S
o'clock. The wounded boy was
conscious TO the last and made
statement before the United States
commissioner, charging Hale with
doing the shooting, and in his
statement declared that the shoot
ing was unprovoked.
Hale was arrested early this
and taken to jail at South
McAlester on the early Katy train.
Hale was working around Atoka
in the capacity of guard for Fed
eral prisoners an1 was a well
known character about Atoka.
There is great Indignation here
over the shooting and if the Off |
GERS had not hustled Hale off to |
South McAlester it might not have |
Jeen well Tor him under the cir |
and thu dying state
nent of the boy who was killed,
which accused Hale of the most
murder without prevoca-
ion.
The parents of the dead boy are
'rostrated with grief at the sad
cath Of their son, and the whole
own is outraged at the terrible
ragedy enacted at their doors.

1t has been planned to start the voting

In sympathy with the plan, to consume
80 much time In the challenging Of the
voters favorable to the faction that the
others will not have an opportunity to
vote. This, II was conceded, would be
easy TO do, for there are only six hours
In which to vote 1000 voters, or about
three minute. Allowing two minutes
for each challenge. this would cut
down the number Of persons that could
DO voted very considerably. Judge
Carter said that he would send to jail
any persons or judges found guilty Of
malicious challenging, and In view OF
the expected lettering influence OF the
conviction OF the Seventeenth Ward
judges the friends Of the new primary

Stake. Mr.. PRESIDENT.

The unparalleled tragedy of the
Maine, while ineXpressibly shocking
the people of the United States, has
served to clarity public opinion on our
relations to Cuba ana Spain.
The very fact that such an accident,
II accident 1t was, could happen TO an
American man-Of-war, and that II
should shatter the peace of mind of the
public. and do infinite damage to ev-
cry commercial enterprise from the At
lantic to the Pacific, Is In itself sufii-
clent warrant for Intervention.
Fear Is more destructive than anger,
There Is one thing worse than war.
and that Is the continued menace of
war.
There can be no peace, no content
ment, no permanent business develop
ment while the sword hangs over the
heads of our people.
The time has come for towards ana
copperheads to move to the rear. The
Cuban war must be ended, and ended
at Once.--ChicagO Journal.
