FITS PRISONER HAD SMALLPOX
Whereby Hangs Tale OF sheriff

Guthrie, O. T., April l-There Is no end
to the complications which ensue when
an official catches culpTit who himself
has caught the smallpox. The expeIienc-
es OF a sheriff under these circumstances
are told breezily by the Perry Repub ian.
That papers account Of the matter is
this: Some weeks ago Dan Russell was
arrested for some offerse against the
territory and put in the county jail. He
wa indicted, and ore morning as Sheriff,
Foster was bringing him to the court
house he discovered that the prisoner had
smallpox, and an immune Immediately
took him to the pest house some miles
below town. Russell did not Ike the pest
house so he soon broke out and abscondel
TO the Indian territory. Last week Shar-
if Foster concluded that Russell was
about well, and he went down to Chick
asha to bring him back to Perry He
found Russell hiding around the town
with some negroes. He hardly ever came
out in the day time, but nights he was
around every crap table in the town and
mingled with everybody. Whes Mr.. Eos
ter fOusd him he was still afflicted. By
some means the people of town learned
that Russell had the disease, and many
talked of lynching him. Mr.. Foster took
his prisoner to the depot and there he
was informed that Russell could not
board the train. Russell was very ask
ious to get out of that town for his own
safety, and he whispered to the sheriff
that he would get aboard if he would
let him. The negro ran around on the
opposite side Of the train and boarded
the second-class coach. At AIinco, the
