Emet, l. T., May 19.-Hon.
John NJ. Simpson, supervisor of
Indian schools was in the
city this week collecting data
for his report to the Interior De-
partment. He takes a very en-
couraging view of the future of
Indian Territory schools. He was
well pleased with the prospect for
the Emet school.
Measles are raging in our midst,
there being some 40 or 50 cases
within the town.
Emet has a new drug store, d
new butcher shop, and a restaur-
ant. Drs. Enlee & Carel are erect :
ing very neat Office building.
Burris & Bridges are putting in
an enormous stock of general
merchandise.
Messrs. Whitlege, Melton and
Burton went to Ardmore the first
of the week as representatives of
the town in the incorporation case.
The town is to be Strengthened
out soon, and everything put in
shape for the building of a more
substantial town.

The Rev. DR.. Chas. A. BRIGGS

THE Rev. DR.. Chas. A. Briggs
says: All truth is not in the sa-
cred deposit of the church. All
truth is not in the drift of tradi-
tion. Our age is an age of the
most exact, painstaking and thor
oughgoing and critical scholarship.
Holy scripture has been searched
by critics as never before, and the
result is that it stands forth before
the world in its native historical
beauty, wealth and power, as the
holy, divine, eternal work of God
to man. Nothing of any histori-
cal value has been lost or impair
ed. The church doctrine of the
Bible, as defined by the church,
stands forth more glorious than
ever. Nothing has been injured
but human traditions about this
Bible, which have never received
the sanction of the holy church,
1t is characteristic of the new the
olOgy that it believes in the holy
ghost. A new age of the world is
at hand, an age of love and Chris
tian knowledge, an age in which
the divine spirit will smile at ag-
nosticism and pierce every doubt
with the invincible two-edged
sword of truth"

Washington, May 20.-Oficial ad-

Philippine peace commissioners by
General Luna have not yet been re-

With Filipinos divided and Sighting
among themselves, the task OF

Fight With Outlaws

In fight with a gang of Watson
outlaws yesterday near Shawnee,
Okla, DR.. Esmond was killed and
Jesse Watson, leader of the outlaws,
wounded.
The Watson gang, numbering FIVE
well-known horse thieves, have late
ly committed depredations in this
vicinity and the sheriff and posse, of
which DR.. Esmond was a member,
were in pursuit. The gang was ar
rested and the party started for this
place. 1t seems that Watson had
not been searched, and at a time
when the officers ware suspecting
nothing, Watson shot Esmond in the
head, killing him instantly.
In the confusion the thieves made
their escape and at last accounts
were headed in the direction of Pur-
cell, A large posse was organized
and is now in pursuit, and a hot
fight may be expected before
morning.
