Parks in Territory Towns.

South McAlester, l. T., Oct. 27.
The map of South Nc Alester
being prepared by the townsite
commission shows no reservation
for public parks. DR.. Sterrett
says that he has done all he can in
the matter. When the council
committee made request that the
plat OF ground about the Choetaw
pond be reserved for public park,
DR.. Sterrett sent the request 20
the department. This was accom-
panied by a protest bb5 Secretary
Smiser against taking any Choc'aw
land for park purposes.
The reply in substance stated
that ten acres might be reserved
for park, but that no larger body
OF land should be taken from the
Indians Tor such purposes. n copy
OF this letter was given the mayor,
with a request by DR.. Sterrett for
a reply. Inasmuch as the Choctaw
pond itself contains much more
than ten acres, the mayor decided
that il was no use to reply 10 the
letter and the subject was dropped
There has been some talk Of
park in Chickashs, and the Sorosis,
a woman's club, has taken the
matter up, and is working 1t. The
above may be pointer in the
direction they are working.

Escape.

Granite Enterprise, Nov. 2.
Tuesday night at about 3 o'clock
one Of the seyerest storms ever
known visited this section, perfect
downpour OF rain accompanied by
high winds, ripped tents into rib
bons and wrecked unfinished build
ings. WillVineyard's house on the
Title addition was picked up bodily
and the wreckage strewn for a
quarter Of a mile. The family con-
sistIng Of Mr.. Vineyard, his wife
and two children, one a five months
old boy had retired when the storm
struck them and demolished the
house. The baby was found a
hundred yards away with its leg
broken. Mrs. Vineyard was badly
bruised and seriously though not
fatally injured. Mr.. Vineyard was
badly bruised about the face and
head and received slight internal
injuries, how they escaped with
their lives is a mystery. Doctors
Mccoy and Spears attended them.
A trunk containing clothing and a
considerable sum of money was
blown open and its contents have
never been found. No other SER
ious accident have been reported,
though several unfinished build
ings were damaged. One house on
College Hill was blown eight feet
of its foundation. Mangum also
reports a severe storm but slight
damage.

A MER1TED REBUKE.

Some years ago the Methodist
Conference organ was in somewhat
Strengthened financial condition.
The plant, and as it was supposed,
the name and good will OF the con-
cern, was bought by one OF the
members Of the conference, and he,
at great labor and sacrifice OF him
self and family, finally placed it on
self-supporting basis and in moder-
ately paying condition. When this
had been done, enyious eyes spied
it out as a desirable possession, and
a quibble was set up that the name
OF the organ was Il property of
the conference, and there was just
enough of the same spirit in the
conference then assembled at this
place TO take, whether right or not,
something which had been maze
valuable. The result was that the
paper was transferred TO new hands
and those new hands lost heavily
by the experiment, so that at the
end Of year or two the thing was
in a bad way and it was thought
best to not only change hands
again, but change name as we'll and
also select a new location. This
was done. The matter was not
improved. The new manager, an
earnest worker and good finan-
cier, has been obliged to suspend
the publication and the church goes
for the present without an "organ."
In the field of morals we are prone
to believe that wrong-doing is pun
isheded hereafter, but it is certain
that in some instances the punish
ment is not withheld for the
future world - Muscogee Phoenix.

proceedings against number of promi.
nent residents CT Dover are threatened
The suits were brought against Ed
ward III. Atkinson by DR.. Thomas o.
Clements, leading local physician. DR.
Clements has practiced in Kent county
for the last twenty years and has built
up large practice. The first attack on
his competency was made early in the
week by Atkinson, who publicly charged
DIR. Clements with causing the loss OF
his eyeeight by using, in removing a
grain of sand from one eye, an instru.
ment upon which there as diphtheria

about or driven out in his carriage, with
both eyes closely bandaged and unable
to tell darkness from light, aroused con-
siderable public sympathy, and when
Mr.. Atkinson made his charges, there
were others ready to add damaging gos-
sip that was not altogether praiseworthy.
| Today Attorneys Alexander M. DAILY
and John B. Hutton, in the Office of the
prothonotary, entered two suits for 500,
600 damages against Atkinson for slander
and defamation of business reputation.
They also gave notice that several other

the civil actions and that DIR. Clements
| had gone into the cases with the inten.
tion of making no compromise whatso.
ever.
DIR. Clements AYERS that Mr.. Atkinson
falsely, mallciously and grievously dam
aged his business reputation by cha ges
both in public and private conversation.
In the long line of evidence which he ex-
poets to produce, Dr. ClemeLts has en-
listed several specialists OF national fame
and will present expert testimony con-
cerning his own ability and the direct
facts in these cases.
The physician was graduated over
twenty years ago from Hahnemann,
Philadelphia, as medical doctor, sur.
geon, eye specialist aid bacteriologist,
and went from mis- college studies to
practical hospital experience, after which
he continued his eye studies under DIR.
Thomas, and has several diplomas.
The diphthera in Mr.. Atkinson's eyes
is said to have been the direct cause Of
cold and congestion while being treated,
a development over which the attending
physician had no control.

London, July 29.-The hopes of Eu-
rope for the safety of at least some of
the members of the legations at Pcking
which earlier in the week had commenced
to revive are now flckering and ut the
point Of eXtinguishment. 1t has been
pointed out here that there has been
ample time to get authentic messages
signed and dated by the ministers. This
is the only consolation of Chinese assur-
anecs that will be acceptable. Until
such advices have been received or unit!
the minister's have been handed over in
the flesh the general public and the gov
rrnment interested will not attach any
rredence to further Chinese statements
or consent to stay preparations for the
advance Of the relief force toward Pc
king. The latest story, originating in
other than Chinese sources, is special
dispatch from Chefu, dated July y. ac-
cerding to which Missionary Wilders,
who started for Peking fortnight ago,
has Just returned and reports that he
found the imperial Chinese forces COM
pletely surrounding the Tartar city. He
was unable to deliver message to the
legation, and in reply to his entreaties
the Chinese said they could not allow
any one pass to the foreigners. Ac-
cording to reports the attack on the lega-
tions ceased on the afternoon of July a..
Everything was quiet during the re-
mainder of Missionary Wilders stay.
When he left on July 1S. Il decree had
been issued commanding all persons to
protect the foreigners in China. Return
ing. he saw no troops for 60 miles south
of Peking. but he learned that 10000
men were in the neighborhood of Yam
tsun and Peit-sung.
| According to Berlin dispatches, the
conservative government organs agree
that the empcror's words at Bremerha-
ven have been misinterpreted abroad
: The KreuZ Zeitung says that it was new
/ or intended to convey the idea that the
troops could not make prisoners, but that
, the German emperor merely alluded To
the Chinese "wh0 neither pardoned MOI
made prisoners"
A telegram from Rome reports that the
organ of the Vatican, commenting on the
speech of Emperor William says that il
is the earnest wish of the pope and Car
dinal Rampolla that the powers should
not resort to policy of retaliation and
vengeance and that no power should be
permitted to do this. The pope has is
sued letter directing prayers i'll all the
churches for the safety of the Christians
and instead of motives of revenge the
letter expresses the hope that the Al
mighty will inspire thoughts of concord
and peace. which will prevent further
ruin and massacre.
