STORIES OF THE WAR.
Three Veterans Meet and
Swap Yarns,

W. L. Green, Capt. w. &.
Nelms and DR.. Frazee, accidently
met in the corridors of the Cobb
= el on Thanksgiving morning.
They all had seen army service
and Green had spent SIX years in
the U. S. navy and witnessed the
Martin AoSta incident in the Bos-
phorous, before the civil war,
when Commodore Ingraham cleared
his vessel and demanded Kosta.
He saw ingraham and other Con
federate naval heroes resign their
commissions from the ~. S. navy
and take their departure from
their vessels to accept Confederate
service at Sardinia in the Medit-
erranean sea. He was with Com.
modore Farragutt when he took
the city OF New Orleans, and his
orderly up TO Cairo, Ill. Here he
took French leave" Of the navy
and become a soldier in the 2nd
regiment NJ s. M.
Capt. Nelms had seen more hard
and honorable service in the "lost
cause than falls to The LOT of most
campaigners, and Frazee had seen
fair share Of service on the side
OF the Union in the late war.
Green had just learned that
Capt John NJ Hitler was dead,
they belonged to the same regi-
ment- Green says II was young
then and not very considerate or
observant." and / did not know
that Hitler had any sense until |
"Duff' Jocelyn told me. One day /
Hughes, one of our musicians an |
nounced that he was going to sing
a song alter dress parade that
evening and would sell copies at
10e piece. He claimed it was
II took and the boys
bought 100 or more copies. In a
few days another musician brought
out an original song and then an
other, and nearly every member
OF the band had offered a new
song, that was original. Duff
and ! were talking about the num-
Der of original poets in the band,
The daily chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Ind. Ter. [Okla.]) 1898-1902, 1899-12-02

and Green says: How is this,
Hughes cannot read or write
scarcely, and the rect of them are
much in the same fix, and how
does it happen that we have SO
many born poets in our band?
"'Duff' says, you d--n fool youJ
Don't you know that is Killers
doggerel and stuff. He writes it
and those fellows sing and sell it,
and they take the proceeds nd
have time down town. while we
fools think we are helping unde-
veloped genius"
Green said he was sorry he did
not go to the reunion at Spring
field. "Why, Major Hubbard
lives there and is big lawyer.
He was major Of the 18th Mo. and
that was the last regiment | served
in" He would not have remem
bered you, Green. "Yes he would,
| would have recalled an incident
to major that be could not helped
but recognized me" I" What was
il? "We were down in Arkansas
near the river and one day we
were out on a little scout when we
turned it into jack rabbit hunt.
The major was in full dress and
we were giving chase to rabbit,
when right in front of the major a
skunk jumped up. The major
drew his sword and made 'righl

that the varmint fred back and hit
him right in the neck. He got #

The ability Of the government
officials to discover laws after it is
almost too late to do any good is
most remarkable, Over a year
had passed before it dawned upon
them that tribal revenues should
be collected. A little later the
light shone in and the physicians
had their limbs elongated to the
tune OF $40 each. Now, as if by
inspiration, it has been discovered
that the game laws have been vi
olaied and all parties caught here
after will suffer the penalties made
and provided. The question imme-
diately arises, if these laws are in
force, and it seems that they are,
why have they not been put in ac-
tive operation before this time?

Indian policeman John West
was in town over Sunday. He is
looking after hunters from abroad.
West is the largest policeman in
the territory, being six feet and a
half high, and weighs $50 pounds.
His father was a still larger man.
whose father was an Irishmrn who
settled among The Cherokees. He
was a cousin OF Tom Starr, also an
lrishman of gigantic stature, who
for about 25 years led a band
against the Ross party, resulting
in much killing, being finally par
doned by Chief Ross, and died at
his home on Canadian river, above
Webbers Falls, in 1890. One of
his sons married Belle Shirley,
known as Belle Starr, who was
the most noted female outlaw in
Fort Gibson Post.

The presence of so many whis-
key peddlers in the country is
taken as an indication that the
law has been enforced so thor
oughly that nobody but "boot-
logger" would have the rashness
TO undertake TO sell intoxicants.
The liquor men also see in it the
necessity OF law permitting the
sale of beer and whiskey in the
territory. Neither view Of the
subject is necessarily correct.
While the "boot-legger' is a pc
culiar product Of the Indian cOun-
try, the laws can be enforced
against him as we'll as others.
