Hoods Sarsaparilla Is not merely sim.

Besides these excellent alternatives, it
also contains those great anti-bilious and
liver remedies, Mandrake and Dandelion.
1t also contains those great kidney RENEE

Nor arc these all. Other very valuable

Knowing these facts, is the abiding faith

A Horrible Crime

What a horrible story is this that
comes from Atoka. Three men
and one woman were arrested
Saturday out on the breaks and
fens southwest of that town, and
their subsequent actions eompels
one to believe that Judge Hosea
Townsend was correct when he
said that the Indian Territory is
the most illiterate spot in the L. 5"
Last Wednesday woman gave
birth to a child, and in an hour
afterwards, so runs the testimony
she, assisted by the men, murdered
the infant and buried it. Inside OF
three hours the woman was at heI
usual work about the house and
when arrested the next day she was
able to make the trip to Atoka.
They were arranged before U
y. Commissioner Rails at Atoka
and it is said that none of tn,
crowd were able to understand on
ly the commonest words of tn.
English language. They are no
idiotic but simply illiterate and un
able to comprehend the words tina
were addressed to them.
