GALVESTON RELIEF INCIDENT
How Court Was Suspended at still
water TO swell the Eund

Guthrie, o. T.. Sept. 25.-The following
Galveston relief incident has just come
to light from Saltwater: When the news
of the appalling disaster at Galveston
was confirmed. Chief Justice Burford
was holding district court at Still water
At an opportune time the Judge an
nounced that court proceedings would be
suspended for few minutes. and in a
few well chosen and appropriate remarks
called attention to the great misfortune
that had befallen the Gate City Of the
Gulf. and the need of aid for the suffer
ing thousands who were penniless and
hungry. He also referred to the great
prosperity that prevails in Oklahoma and
how merchant. farmer, mechanic and
professional men have been blessed with
rich and hountiful rewards for their in
dustry. The judge then requested that
the bar resolve itself into a relief meet
ing to raise funds for the Galveston suf-
ferers. The bar readily responded and
Captain R0bt. ], Boury was made chair
man, and at once began business by an
nounc!ng that speeches and resolutions
would not feed the hungry or heal the
wounds. but 10 come on with the cash.
Judge Burford was the first 10 respond,
with S, Crelk Hart followed With s. and
the lawyers crowded to the front each
donating literally. The Jurors then each
donated to the fund. The county officers
and spectators also contributed, and
within ten minutes the sum of $50 was
piled on the judges desk as the offering
Of the little squad Of court officers. jurors
and visitors. This fund was placed in
the hands Of a committee of the bar. who
called on the absent members and raised
the total 10 500 which was Immediately
wired to the mayor of Galveston.

Usage INDIAN AT TEN TSIN
Arthur Bonnfcastle Tells About the
Fighting There.

Guthrie, o. T., Sept. 25.-The following
letter, from Arthur Bonnicastle, full
blood Usage Indian and graduate of Car
listle, who is a member of the Ninth in
fantry, now seeing service in China, was
written to a friend in the United States
and describes part of the action before
Tien Tsin in July:
Tien Tsin, China, Aug. 8, 1900.
Major r. H. Pratt:
Dear Sir:-I will write a few lines be-
fore leave. A general advance will be
made to Pekin. We are now awaiting OF
ders to move at a moments notice The
Japanese and the Russians are on the
line now, but can advance no further than
the entrenchements Of the Boxers. They
have lost quite a number of their men
since they have been out there.
A battery of the Fifth artillery has just
arrived and also two squadrons of the
Sixth cavalry. We had good hot times
we're one, but we were lucky to lose but
about nineteen men and our general, Cen
eral Liscum, and about nine officers.
The Americans and Japanese lay In
trenches all day, and took the city at
night. You can well imagine what it is
to be under a smuggling storm of bullets
and shells. A man couldn't stick his
head out from behind the trenches; If he
did he got volley of shots.
No man will ever again attempt to do
what we did on July 13. Going up against
wall thirty feet high and half as wide
with rifles only! That wasn't ali. The
enemy had the range of everything from
the second wall in. We are now ready to
go up against any wall.
The Americans, English and Japanese
viii advance together. The ussians are
off by themselves. 1 think every nation
is represented here. At least all the CIV
ilized nations are, anyway. I guess I'm
theh only representa- tive from the Carlisle
school, and 1 am proud of it, too We
have Carlisle Indians in nearly all parts
of the world. No matter where 1 am
always find peoplpe who know what is
being done at Carlisle for the Indians.
We are now experiencing some very
hard times Nothing to eat and very lit
tie to drink. I am doing the best I can,
and shall continue doing So

TOOK TOO MUCH FOR GRANTED
Mutual Misunderstanding That
Caused Ed. Wurtz's Death,

Perry, o. T., Sept. 25.-A most unfortun-
ate homicide occurred in our city Satur-
day night about midnight Mr.. Mockley
and other men in going home, while pass
ing the Kukuk meat market at the north
west corner OF the, square, thought they
heard noise in the butcher shop. They
watched from the front window for a mo-
ment and saw man crouch down behind
the counter. They at once gave the
alarm and several officers FASTENED to the
scene. One of them, Ed Stagg, went to
the rear of the shop, tried the door and
window, found them closed, and then
stopped moment by the rear door
About that time the door was opened.
Stage was struck on the shoulder and he,
supposing the man to be a burglar, fired
twice at the man. The first shot missed
him; the second shot pierced his brain
above the eye, and the man dropped on
the floor. By this time and even before
several other persons were there with
their guns, for no one seemed to think
the man was anybody but a burglar. The
crowd was terribly surprised to find the
man TO be Ed Wurtz, a German. who
slept in the shop. He was unconscious,
and never recovered consciousness. and
died at 1;So the next morning.

equitable law regulating the leasing Of
school, college and public bIilding lands
leaving the whole matter in the hands
of a board with arbitrary power to fix
its rules and with power to change them
with the change Of the moon, giving
lessees or other citizens no more voice
in fixing or changing Of said rules than
the Car Of Russia grants to his sub
tects; and
Whereas, Said conditions place lessees
outside the protection Of law as far as
school lease matters are concerned, CIV
ing them no voice in fixing the rents or
the value Of improvements; and
