QUESTION OF JURISDICTION
Arises Between District Attorney
and Probate Court

Guthrie, o. T., Aug. 31.-(Special)-Act-
ing under instructions from United States
Attorney Overstreet the probate judge of
Lincoln county, the county jailor and two
Chandler attorneys, A. j. Rittenhouse and
j. Newly, have been placed under arrest
for obstructing the execution of a United
States process. The circumstances which
led to their arrest are as follows: Under
a process issued by the Indian Territory
authorities Jim Dunn, an alleged muir
derer. was arrested by Deputy Marshal
Douglas and placed in the county iail
at Chandler pending a hearing before the
United States commissioner. Commits
sioner Frazier was i'll and pending his re-
covery sufficient TO transact mis- official
business and during the absence of the
deputy marshal, Attorneys Rittenhouse
and Newly had Dunn brought before
Probate Judge Cordell on ilabeas corpus
proceedings. and secured his release.
Dunn, the alleged murderer. disappeared
as soon as discharged and mis- where
abouts are still unknown. United States
Attorney Diversified was indignant when
he learned OF the manner of Dunn's re-
lease and at once ordered a process issued
against the parties concerned therein He
holds that the probate.court has no juris-
diction over United States cases, and thar
a court that hasn't jurisdiction to issue
United States process hasn't jurisdic-
ton to arrest it.

JAN MAzEPPA'S CAREER.


Escapade Of the Hero Of the wild Horse
of the Ukraine.
Jan Mazeppa was born about the
year 1645, being the son Of a poor no.
bleman of Podolia. For some time
the youth served as page at the Court
of John Casimir, King of Poland. On
his return to his native province he
carried on an intrigue with the wife
of one Of his neighbors. Being sur
prised by the offended husband, he was
bound by his orders to one of the wild
horses which roam about the Ukraine,
and the terrified animal, being turned
loose, ran with his burden till it reach
ed the country Of the Cossacks, where
Mazeppa, half dead, was released by
the peasants.
Being tenderly nursed by the peas
ants, Mazeppa was restored to health
and rose to such favor with their Het-
man that he was chosen as his success
sor. AS chief of the Cossacks, he rem
dered many services to Peter the Great,
and, being strongly attached to the
liberties of his adopted country, is said
to have made earnest but unavailing
circumstances to that monarch when
he had resolved to violate them.
Created Prince of the Ukraine, Ma
zeppa became tired of his dependence
on the Emperor and entered into a sec
ret league with Charles XII. OF Sweden.
His scheme being discovered, and his
capital, Batourin, having been taken by
The Russians, he Joined the Swedish
King. The battle of Pultown was the
result Of his counsel, and after that dis
astrous engagement Mazeppa took ref
uge at Bender, where he poisoned him
self September %, 1909.

In no respect viii the domination, or
even the influence, of the United State
In the Philippines work for good more
than the social life of the people. An
American minister who has recently
returned from the islands is the au-
thority for the statement that the
priests have for many years charged
the natives no less than $50 for per-
forming the marriage service. AS the
acreage native under Spanish rule was
able to earn about S. month when
times were good" and he had regular
employment, it is easy to see why COM
mon law marriages have always been
the rule rather than the exception. 1t
is safe to say that among tte first re-
forms introduced in the Isl nds is one
that will have direct bearinc upon the
sanctity of the marriage reiotion.

ual observer would seem quite incom-
petent. The collection of these primi-
tive weapons and tools is quite COM
prehensive in its line, and each arti-
Gle in 1t carries with it thrilling story
of escape or attempted escape.
There is a screwdriver made from a
spoon which patient at an opportune
moment struggled to his room from the
dining table. He broke off the spoon
just above the bowl and under cover of
the noise which prevailed at times
ground down the handle on his stone
window sill until 1t assumed the form
Of a screwdriver. With this he re-
moved the screws which held the slat
at the side Of his window and made his
escape in this manner. This man was
a harmless patient, who was troubled
with recurrent attacks of excitement
and who took pleasure at such times in
witnessing the fright which he inspired
in those who thought him dangerous.
The next article in the collection is
an improved dagger and sheath, the
dagger made from nail with piece
OF rag for handle and sheath made
from chicken bone. The weapon
was found on the person of the maker
and was taken before he had time to
complete the dagger by filing down the
point on the nail.
Another improvised weapon is dirk
made from long nail with the end
well sharpened and rag wrapped
around the other end to serve as
handle. This instrument was as sharp
as an ordinary knife and would be
formidable weapon in the hands of
crazy man.
Perhaps the most unique article in
the collection is key made from
piece OF orange peel. This apparently
harmless tool was made by a female
patient and was discovered before she
had an opportunity to test it's efficiency.
The prison officials found on trial that
this key made from dried orange peel
would unlock readily almost any old
and worn lock.
The doctor has also key made
from wood and one made from wood
and piece Of grange peel, and others
made from the handle Of a backing
box, from a small staple, etc., all of
which will unlock old locks with more
or less ease. Screwdrivers seem to be
the instrument which the inmates con-
slider most useful, and there are several
strange varieties of this tool in the
doctors collection. They are made
from nails, button hooks, springs, from
the heel of woman's shoe and heel
plates and clothes hooks.

Memory of Hotel Clerks.

The memory of hotel clerk is cul-
tivated along peculiar lines. Hun
dreds of names and faces have to be
accurately memorized, and he must be
able at minutes notice 20 tell the
number of the room in which any Of
the hotel visitors is qaai tered. II
asked the number of the room oceu-
pied by John Smith a good clerk can,
without hesitation, put his hand in The
proper pigeon-hole and extract the key.
The curious part of the oneration is
that he can rarely make it work back
ward. Ii asked who is in given room
he almost invariably has to consult his
books before responding.

tails may hang human life.
