FATE OF LYDIA LYONS.
Tragic End OF Chicago Girl WHO
Married an Indian Chief.
From the Chicago Inter Ocean.

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
Fixico, funblooded Comanehe chief, is
in jail at Teeumseh, Okla, where he is
held for the murder of his infant son.
Mrs Fixico, white woman of good fam
lily, and well educated, killed herself a
week ago Sunday in a fit of dependency
brought on by the cruel treatment she re-
ceived from her husband, and the latter
in his drunken rage shot to death their
little child as it crawed over the lifeless
body of its mother. With the execution
of Fixico which is sure 10 speedily follow

ten in one of the most romantic trage-
dies in the history of the West.
Lydia Lyons was the daughter of Maj.
Lyons Of Chicago, a veteran of the Mexi-
can and civil wars, and man well known
in military circles. She was educated at
the illinois Training School for Nurses,
with The idea of becoming a missionary
among the Indians. Miss Lyons had in
tended going to Dakota to work among the
Sioux. Al the time she finished her edu-
cation, however, in 1884, Sitting Bull was
making a great ado out there over the an
noUnced coming of the Messiah, and Fort
SILL Okla, was chosen as d safer place,
especially as the garrison there was I'M
der command of Capt. Gabraith an old
friend of the Lyons family.
Lydia Lyons was a lovely blonde of
commanding figure and winning address.
The Indians called her the "pale-faced
goddess and declared that she was The
herald of The Messiah. She soon had the
allegiance of the Kiowas, Comanches and
Arapahoes, with the exception of one tall

was savage. every inch. He had been

probably more the woman than the mis-
sonary that prompted Miss Lyons 10 de-
termine to conquer FiXico, ard to secure
his reforma ton she promised him that if
IN three years he had not taken drink of
fire water or INDUCED in any dissipation
she would marry him. F,xico agreed. and
at least 10 all appearances kept his prom
Use faithfully.
The Wedding was a great event in the
Comanche tribe. It was celebrated at
Darlington, Ok, in the presence of 1000
redskins. There was dancing and feast
ing ana strange, wild merry making
among the Indians.
Things went on happily enough appar-
entity with this STRANGELY assorted couple
until a child was bornIt was nearly so like
the hated white race that Fixico loathed
il. He began to drink and carouse and
abuse his wife. A week ago Sunday eve
ming he came home drunk-beastly wild
and drunk as only an Indian can get. His
wife had become discouraged as 1t grew
more certain that she had lost all control
over Fixico. He abused her and she
locked herself in room with the baby
and stabbed herself TO the heart with a
knife. Fixico found them there, drew a
revolver and killed the baby, and sent
bullet crashing through his dead wife's
brain 1t does not take long to finish a
trial IN Oklahoma. Fixico will be hanged
probably after snow falls.
