Lucky Cook.

Guthrie. Okla, Aug. 6.-In the
territorial supreme court decision
was rendered today giving to j.
H. Cook of st. Louis a valuable
lot in this city, for which he has
been contesting 10 years.
Cook settled on the lot April -,
1889. and attempted to prove the
same. The board of arbitration
in those days put him off. The
interior department held that Cook
had not abandoned the lot. and the
supreme court holds that the find
ings of the secretary of the interior
are conclusive upon the court.
The lot now contains a fine busi-
ness block erected by Emma ID.
McCord, who purchased the lot
from f. d. Nix of Joplin, Mo-, a
few days ago, and Cook will get
the block with the lot.
