Found Dead in Barrel Of
Water.

CHANDLER, OKLA, MAY 22-(Spe-
ciaD.-The Publicist says "A case of
unusual and horrible cruelty TO a child
bv its parents has been lately discovered
I'm South Creek township. Tuesday
Bohemian farmer who lives near Lamb
din. was discovered by the father head
downward I'm a barrel Of water near the
we'll a short distance from the house. A
week ago the body of the five and a half
year old daughter OF Charles Severn,
him. An inquest was held last week and
neighbor was called to make a box for a
coffin and the neighbors were notified by
as a result the father and mother were
arrested on the charge Of causing tho
death of the child, and a preim nary ex-
animation was commenced before a JUS
tice in South Creek township last Mon
day and held until Wednesday when it
was adjourned until next week. County
Attorney Newby appeared for the ter
ritory and Roy Hoffman for the defend
ants at the examination. The evidence
discloses that whether or not the defend
ants are directly responsible for the
death of the child. they have been guilty
of unnatural cruelty to their own off,
spring. The childs body was covered
with bruises and scars, one large scar
on the forehead having been caused by
the mother striking the child with a hoe
handle while in the field because the
child did not hoe fast enough.
The neighbors also claim that the child
was forced to sleep out in the barn with
the horses without any covering but the
clothes she had on and was compelled to
eat dry corn. The stories told Of the i'll
treatment Of the child are almost too
sickening to relate. The doctors testified
at the inquest that the child had dted Of
asphyxiation, that there was no water
in the lungs, and that the condition OF
the bowels indicated that the child had
eaten no food for at least As hours before
death.

Murdered Men Identified.

The two men found mangled by a
Katy train near Pryor Creek on the
inlght.of the 18th inst, have been
identified. They we're Green Smith
and his cousin, e. e. Smith Of Swed-
en-, Mo-, and they had been working
for parties about Chouteau for year
or two. Recently they visited Swed-
en-, Mo-, and were evidently returning
when killed. There is story pre-
sumption that they had been murder
ed and placed upon the track. They
were known to have had some money
when they left Missouri, which great
