Chickasaw Incompetent Fund

Muskogee, l. T., Aug. 27.-The
Indian agents Office at this place
is daily in receipt of evidence and
other documents bearing on the
claims of those of the Chickasaws
who claim to be entitled to share
in the incompetent fund of that
nation.
1t is estimated that it will take
about three months to clear up
this payment as there will be so
much evidence to take, and the
payment will be made to individu-
ais personally by the paymaster at
different points in the Chickasaw
nation. The payment will be made
through the Indian agents office
here and will be similar to the old
settler Cherokee payment which
was made few years ago.

READY FOR LAST SPIKE.

sion Almost Finished.


According to the Wichita Bea=
con, the last spike on the new ex-
tension of the Rock Island which
has been built westward out of
Chickasha, I. T.. will be driven
about the middle of next week.
The new extension, about which
much has been written, lies west
wardly out of Chiekasha. For
nearly its whole extent it runs
through the rich and fertile Wash
ita valley. cutting the northern
portion of the great Kiowa, CO.
manche and Apache territory.
which will be opened up to the
settlement in few months. The
line is about 90 miles long, and its
present terminus is Mangum the
county seat of Greer county. AL
ready there are several stations To-
Gated along the line.
The value of the extension to
the Rock Island road, will make
itself apparent. at the opening OF
the Kiowa, Comanche and Apache
territory. which will be thrown
open to public settlement as soor
as the proclamation is issued by
the president. Lying as it does
through this land which is the las
of the large Indian tracts it will
play an important part in the set
tlement of this territory. Even al
the present time the two trains pc,
day are crowded, both with freigh
and passengers. and as soon as tn
line is completed, two passenger
trains and two freight trains will
be placed in service.

Dear Sirs:-I feel 1t my duty to
write to you and let you know how
much good your medicine has done
for me. Twenty-three yeras ago
was taken with some kind of stom-
ach trouble and tried everything 1
heard of. They did me but little
good. Three years ago neuralgia set
in on me and / got so poor and weak
that 1 could hardly walk, couldn't
work any. My husband received a
book through the mail, advertising
your medicine, and he sent our little
boy to the drug store to get one OF
your ten-cent bottles. l began to
use it. 1t is strange to say, but it's
the truth, the second dose l took
gave me lots of relief. kept on
using it till used it nearly one year
and NOVEL am nearly as strong as
used to be and can do any kind OF
work. 1 recommended it to all, for
it seems to me it would cure anybody
1 have gotten several to use DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin and they
all say it has done them so much
good. God bless DIR. Caldwell and
his medicine for doing me so much
good. Yours with respect,

have been convicted and fined for keep

of many attempts by the police DEPART

cient evidence to convict.
In the opinion the court say: '@There
are some persons who conscientiously be-
lieye that prostitution is necessary evil
in a community. I venture to say that
those who So believe are also Of the opin-
ion that 1t should be tolerated only with
i'll the limits of certain districts and not
be allowed to scatter broadcast over the
city. Were such the case it would be
possible by warning and advice to guard
the young people who are growing into
manhood and womanhood against it's in
ffuenee. but when, as is tha case the vice
appears upon one of the principal streets
of the city, and under the cloak of an
innocent-appearing cigar store or ice
cream store, reaches out from back
door and draws its victim within its
grasp, it not only casts suspicion upon a
respectable business, but it is wholly i'm
possible to guard against its baneful in
f1uences and effects upon those who
might otherwise never be brought within
its sphere of contamination. and it is high
time that the police department took Wig
cFous action to suppress such places and
that the courts gave that department en-
couragment in that work by proper sup
port"
