 Lands.

Tulsa, I. T., November 2S.-Crazy Snake, who led . the rebellion against the government last spring, is causing the Creek council much trouble. The Snake band will send a strong delega- tion to Washington to protest against the deeding of Creek lands.
 A joint resolution was passed unani- mously today by both houses of the Creek council demanding that deeds be issued immediately at Ocmulgee instead of Muscogee. Chief Porter will prob ably sign the resolution to Secretary Hitchcock.

 Father Crowley desired to return to the church and communicated with Car dinal Martinelli. This correspondence led to further communication and there were certain conditions imposed. I can not tell you what they are, but sup pose that if Father Crowley fulfills them he will be given his former position in the church. Still I am not his bishop and cannot speak definitely about this"

FACULTY MEETING.
University Rulers get Together
and Talk.
Summer Quarter as Heretofore Run
not Regarded Fayorably Summer
School Proposed Instead-C Commit
tee Plan of Government Approved =
Y. w. G. A Reception.

The first general faculty meeting
Of the rear was held at the Uniyer
sity on Saturday. The call for the
meeting stated that the matters Of
Summer Quarters, Committee Gov
eminent and Preparatory Electives
were to be taken up. There was a
full meeting of the faculty, nearly
every member being present
Nothing of definite nature was
done,ithe meeting having been called
more in order to get an expression
of opinion from the members of the
faculty than to take any final action
on any OF the matters under eonsid-
Grafton.
However the discussion developed
the fact that summer quarter as
one of the regular quarters Of the
University year with all depart
ments running was considered mad
visable by the faculty. AT the same
time they recognized the fact that
summer school is needed by many
of the people of the state who can
come 1t no other time to take ad
vantage of what the University has
to offer.
tits admitted that the additional
expense OF keeping unnecessary de
partments running as usual during
the summer with all of the frills and
foolishness of the former summer
quarters in unnecessary and should
not be incurred. Next summer the
school will run for some weeks and
only those departments which may
be needed will be operated.
The committee system was CON
sidered to be the only solution of
the situation. The system is to be
modified somewhat and the various
committee will be reorganized so as
not to over lap nor to conflict with
each other. This will be done la
ter
Nothing definite was decided as to
Prep electives but this will be taken
up later

very well managed and large uasn

ANOTHER STORY.
Still another Version of how Collins
Lost his Bunch of Good Money.

The following story Of how ver-
dant lad from the rural districts of
this county lost his wad while engaged
in having time in Fairmont is given
by the Fairmont Times in recent is
sue. 1t will be seen that this recital
is different from the one Collins gave
to people here:
1t is about the same old story Of
getting swindled by sharpers and one
man getting the experience while the
other gets the money.
1t seems that Mr.. Nicholas Collins
came up from Cross Roads, Mononga-
liza county, to take in the races here
Thursday. He went to bank and
goJ cash for check of about So, 900.
1t appeared that he let his sporting
blood get high and about Ii O'Clock
fell in with two strangers. One of
the strangers is known as John Day.
professional gambler of Waynesburg
Pa, and the other as Mr.. Grimm, a
Splinter. 1t was agreed that they
should go TO room in the Harring-
ton hotel, which they did, and s'put
up bet on Grimm as racer. Day
was to hold the stakes. 1t seems
Collins counted out $500 in cold cash
and placed in Days hands. The two
sharpers then told Collins they would
go out after third party aud for him
to remain in the room for little
while
Day and his pal escaped from the
hotel got sashuggy and drove rapid
ly away.
Collins remained In the room for
some time but becoming impatient
hastened to find Messrs Day and
Grimm. However, the birds had
flown.
Collins notified the police and Off
GERS Shoemaker and Barthlow started
after the culprits, but were not sue
cessful in locating them. We are in-
formed Day and Grimm are notorious
characters having before been placed
under arrest on similar charges.
