HORSE STOLEN.
A roam horse belonging to O.G. Parker
of Buxton which was hitched just out
side the fair grounds yesterday afternoon,
was stolen, or at least he was not found
at g. O'Clock when Mr.. Parker left the
grounds. The horse is bare foot behind,
newly shod forward, has a double main
and weighs about 1000 pounds.
STRUCK A SEVERE BLOW IN THE
TEMPLE.
John Rivers OF King street, Westbroo K,
shortly after 5 O'Clock yesterday afternoon
was on the road beside the park when
one of the fruit vendors who had been at
the fair passed. Rivers attempted to get
aboard the wagon, so it is related by
those who saw the affair. and when he
refused to get off the driver struck
him a severe blow which made deep
cut in his left temple. Rivers was TAX
en- into the edge OF the woods where he
remained in an unconscious condition
for about 10 minutes. Two gentlemen
passing in a carriage, saw the body alone
and thinking that Rivers was dead spread
the report at the entrance to the fair
grounds that man was dead in the
woods. This caused quite a sensation,
but when the Investigators arrived two
friends Of Rivers were working on him
and he had just regained consciousness.
He was attended by a physician and it
is not thought that his injuries win re-
suit seriously.

KANSANS DISAPPOINTED.
Governor Roosevelt Passes Through on
sunday and VIII Not Speak.

Topeka, June Ex-Governor Roose-
welt will make no speeches during his
trip through Kansas. NJ. A. Low, of
this city, says that Mr.. Roosevelt has
positively refused to make any speeches
Of political character until he is form
ally notified that he has been nomina-
ted for vice president. g.
1t was the intention of the Kansas
Republican League, which meets in
this city Thursday, June 30, to adjourn
until July 2, when it was expected that
Mr.. Roosevelt would be pursuaded to
address the delegates. The governor
however, will go through this city on
Sunday and will not make any speech
es. A number of Kansas towns have
been telegraphing for the past week
attempting to make dates for Roose-
welt speech on this trip, and the gov
nor's decision not to speak will disap-
point them.

The Last About the Legations.

London, June 3O.-A representative
of the Associated Press was informed
at the foreign Office that the yiceroy
of Nankin has telegraphed to the
British consul general at Shanghai
that he had received, June 25, an i'm
perial rescript as follows:
"The foreign legations at Pelsin con-
tinue as usual to receive every protec.
ton from the imperial government.
On the other hand the officials of the
Chinese embassy say they have rea-
son to believe the foreign ministers at
Pekin were given their passports June
49, The foreign Office is much con-
cerned at the latter report and hopes
it will not be confirmed as il. would ne
an unexpectedly adverse development
which would possibly mean declara-
ton of war.

IMPORTANT INDIAN sun.
Involving Millions OF Dollars As
Well As Citizenship.
WILL GO TO SUPREME COURT.

South McAlester, /. T., June 30.-A
suit involving the admission to citizen
ship in the Choctaw nation of about
1000 people and involving approx
mately S2O,OOO,OOO worth of the lands
and funds of the Choctaw nation was
tried here in the United States court.
The suit is mandamus to compel the
Dawes commission to enroll Rebecca
Harris and others rs members of the
tribe. The Dawes commission, in max
ing up final rolls of those entitled to
participation in the allotment of lands
and division of tribal funds, has re-
jected the name of the plaintiff in this
suit and others who were admitted by
the United States court, and have thus
practically detied the court authorities.
The conflict of authorities and the
Immense interests involved make the
case one of national Importance, as 1t
will be taken to the United States
supreme court by whichever party is
defeated here.

Chicago strike Ending.

Chicago, June 29.-The backbone OF
the great building trades strike in this
city is broken. 1t is now only ques-
ton of hours when the fifty thousand
workmen who have been idle for many
months will be arranging agreements
for their return to work. The initial
move for ending the lockout was taken
at 2:15 o'clock in the morning by the
bricklayers and stone masons' union
the strongest labor organization in the
building trades, who voted after an
all night meeting to withdraw from
the building trades council.
