UNCONSCIOUS FOR TWO YEARS
Miss Wilbur Has Carried the Gas
Mystery to the Grave.

Miss Wilbur Has Carried the Gas
Mystery to the Grave,
San francisco, Mrach 6.-After
two years of unconsciousness Miss
Elida Wilbur died today. In Feb
ruary, 1898, Miss Wilbur was found
in her room unconscious with the
gas turned on. She was lying on a
sofa with novel in her hand and
it was at first supposed that she had
committed suicide, but investigation
disproved this supposition, and it
became known that she had fallen
asleep while reading and that a
gust of wind had extinguished the
light, leaving the gas to escape into
the room and rob the younglady of
her senses. The best physicians in
the city were called and every
known means OF restoring conscious
ness were applied without result
Her friends and nurses were re
warded by brief, very brief, periods
of consciousness and once or twice
she spoke, and it is said that her
words were these: "The one loves
me now"

A Wildcat and Bear Story.

Shorty" Magee, an old-time
prospector over in the Bigfoot
District south of town, is reported
to possess an unusual pet,--a
genuine wildcat, commonly known
as a bob-cat, which he caught in the
mountains when it was quite small.
The Boulder (Mont.) Age saws that
the cat has grown now to full size
and that it is quite tame and even
affectionate, climbing upon his
masters shoulder and purring and
otherwise showing its fond ness for
him. But it is afraid Of strangers,
and generally hides under the bed
when anyone comes to see him.
Speaking of Shorty" Magee re-
minds one of an incident that hap
pened over his way few years ago.
AS reported, Mr. Magee and Dennis
Smith, who row lives in Boulder,
were out in the hills and ran across
an unusually big bear, which show
ed fight to such An extent that each
of the men climed a tree. After
they had made the ascent, the bear
sat down fighting mad about mid
way between them, and waited for
scrap. Dennis finally got tired,
and shouted over to his neig hbor;
"Holler, and shake your tree,
Shorty, SO the bear will come that
way and / can come down and get
my gun
ooh, holler and shake your own
tree" says Shorty, you're bigger
than me-"
But they both finally escaped
the bear getting tired. and going
away in disgust.

WHEN WILL THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY DIE?.

When the lion eats grass like an OK,
And the fish worm swallows the
whale.
When terrapins knit WOODEN socks,
And the hare is out run by the snail.
When sepents walk upright like men
And doodle bugs travel like frogs.
When grasshoppers feed on the hen,
And feathers are found on hogs.
When Thomas cats swim in the air,
And the elephants roost upon trees.
When insects in summer are rare,
And snuff never makes people sneeze
When fish creep over dry land.
And mules on yelosopedes ride,
When foxes lay eggs in the sand,
And woman in no dress takes pride,
When Dutchmen no longer beer drink,
And girls get to preaching on time;
When billy goats butt from the rear,
And treason no longer is crime.
When the humining bird brays like an
ass.
And limberger smells like cologne;
When plowshares are made out Of glass,
And the hearts of Arkansans are stone.
When ideas grow in populists' heads
And wool on the hydraulic ram,
Then the democratic party will be
dead,
And this country wont be worth
d-m.

Hutchings to Resign.

1t is reported that w. Il. Hutchings
is TO leave the Dawes commission az
ter this week as attorney for the Cher
okee nation. There is some dissatis-
faction about the fee paid by the
Cherokee nation last year. L. B.
Bell was elected or appointed as one
OF the attorneys for the nation and
drew his pay in advance and then re-
signed the position. Hutchings aud
Bell were to share $3.50 equally.
Hutchings paid Bell half the amount,
1915 In cash and took the warrant for
$3.50, which has been held up and not
paid on account Of Bell drawing a sal
ary for services never rendered. So
Mr.. HutchiDgs is out not only his
summers work Tor the Cherokee na-
iion but the ss75 10 cash paid Bell.
THIS Is q curious complication and the
end Is not yet.

DROWNED IN THE yERDIoRIs.
Breaking Of Cable Costs the Ferry
man Ills Life.

|
James Ward, a ferryman, at the
jameson ferry on the Verdigrii
between Vann's lake and Gibson
Station was drowned Wednesday
afternoon. All the rivers are high
and the Verdigris is much swollen
all this week. Wednesday a man
and his family who were travelling
overland in a prairie schooner
drove on to the ferry boat. This
ferry is operated by a cable and
when in mid stream the boat be-
gan to dip. Finally the cable was
cut and the boat began sinking.
The horses became frightened and
began plunglng and jumped off the
boat, the men holding onto the
tails of the horses. Ward could
not retain his hold and was
drowned, but the owner Of the
team and wagon reached the shore
in safety.
After the boat had been tighten.
ed of its load it floated down the
Verdigris into the Arkansas and
then into the Grand. AT Nivens'
ferry the boat with the wagon on it
was sighted and steps taken to
bring it ashore, which was finally
successful, the boat being landed
down Grand river at Frozen Rock
ferry. The man who owned the
wagon and team left his family on
north side of the river intending
go back for them. They were
thus saved from drowning as it is
that all would have gone
down had the entire family been
on board. .-Muskogee Times,
