FEDERAL PRISONS
Soon TO be Erected az Different
Points in the Territory.

Preparations are being made by
the department. OF justice TO carry
out the act Of congress providing
for the erectionyof new federal jails
at Muskoges, South McAlester and
Ardmore, | I. While the act did
not directly stipulate that the $50,
COO appropriated must be divided
equally between the three towns,
the department is not disposed to
make any invidIous distinction be
tween the towns in the distribu-
lion of this appropriation.
The first building upon which
work will be commenced will be
the jail at Muskogse. Itis expected
that title to a site wiz be secured
within the next few days. Plans
for the Jail at that city have already
been perfected and the government
will call for bids within the next
two weeks. The plans approved
for the Jail at Muskogee contem-
plate a building with thirty steel
cages, each capable Of holding two
persons. AS the aversge number
OF persons at the Muskogee Jail is
approximately 120 throughout the
entire year, 1t is apparent that the
"bull pen" must necessarily be
resorted TO and the greater number
of prisoners coFraled in that siruc.

WOULD OPEN LANDS
In Oklahoma to Settle ment. and
Would Remove an Annoying
Feature OF the System Of
AlIoting Land of In
dams.

Congressman Curtis, of Kansas,
will present bill as soon as con-
gress re assemblies that is designed
TO tighten the work OF the Indian
Office and to solve a problem that
Is growing more complicated each
year. The bill will provide that
the adult heirs Of any deceased In
dian 10 whom lands had been al
lotted may sell the land. Under
the existing laws the lands are
held in trust and the leasing pro.
ceeds divided each year.
The complications arising under
this system have led Mr.. Hitch
cock, secretary OF the interior, TO
recommend to congress the pass
age OF law authorizing the sale
of the lands OF this character be-
longing to the Ponca. Pawnee,
Osoe and Tonkawa Indians in Ok
lahoma. Mr.. CuItis will offer
bill making the authority general,
affecting the lands Of deceased al
lottees wherever situated.
The passage Of the bill recon-
mended by Mr.. Hitchcock would
At once open up overSl,0 900 acres
of fine farming land in Oklahoma
to settlement, and would greatly
simplify the work Of the Indian
bureau in caring for these heirs.
Under the proposed plan the land
would be sold and the money de-
posted with the government for
the benefit OF the heirs Of the de-
ceased alIottees. The adoption OF
the bill which Mr. Curtis will in
troduce would open many thous-
ands Of acres OF land 20 settle
ment or for sale to settlers
Following is copy Of the bin
which Mr.. Hitchcock has recon-
mended for passage:
"That the adult heirs OF any de-
ceased Ponca, Pawnee, Otce or
Tonkawa Indian. TO whom a trust
patent was issued for lands allot-
ted him in Oklahoma, may sell
and convey the lands inherited
from such decedent. and if there

Judge Brady Passed Away.

Judge J. G. Brady passed away
at the Sacred Heart Hospital in
Spokane, on Wednesday morning,
at 500. The story of his assassina-
ton in his Office at Rathdrum, by
Henry Wilmbussy, an insane
man, on the night of July 5, is
familiar to our readers. Mr.. Brady
was conveyed to the hospital and
received every surgical attention
but the wound was mortal and
after II days battle with death,
in which he retained his faculties
with remarkable vitality, he at last
succumbe6 to the grim destroyer.
The body was sent to Rathdrum
where the funeral was held today.
The death of Judge Brady was
peculiarly pathetic. His wife died
at the same hospital only two years
ago. They were in the prime of
life. That both the husband and
wife should thus meet such an
untimely death is a sad coincidence.
In the presence of death all strife
is stilled and friend and foe alike
gather around the bier to pay the
last sad rites.
James G. Brady was born in
Iowa, May 10, 1868. He attended
the district school ami took
normal course at Valparaiso,
Indiana, after which he taught
school, first around Keswick. Iowa,
his I'D home, and later in Montana
and Idaho. He came west and
taught school in Montana, and
afterwards at Post Falls and Rath-
drum in this county, where he was
principal. He entered politics in
this county about five years ago.
In 1898 he was elected probate
judge on the fusion ticket, was re-
elected last fall. He was chairman
of the democratic county central
committee, and publisher of the
Silver Blade, the fusion organ in
Kootenai County.
1pdgez Brady was married in
1891 to Miss Nettie Pine, of his
native town. Her death is noted
above. BY his death two children,
Arva, girl of 7, ard Elmer, boy
aged 5, are lett orphans The
Judge was a member OF several
fraternal organizations and carried
$4,000 insurance which will go to
the little ones the care Of whom he
intrusted to Father r. J. Purcell of
kathdrum. He returned to the
Catholic faith, in which he wa
reared, before his death.
His aged father and three sisters,
from Iowa, besides a brother-in-
law, Mr. Pine, were present at his
! death.

W. W. EDWARDS DEAD.
Father Of the Ex-senator Pass
es Away Surrounded BY
His Family.

William w. Edwards, father of former
Senator William D. Edwards, and one of
Lafayette's oldest residents, died about
half-past nine o'clock this morning.
Death was due to paralysis For two
years or more Mr.. Edwards had been
ailing. The end was peaceful, but rather
sudden. Gathered around the bedside
were many of his relatives. They had
been apprised of the condition of Mr.. Ed
wards, who began sinking several hours
before. Mr.. Edwards resided at Pacific
and Bramhall avenues. No arrangements
were made today for the funeral
Mr.. Edwards was born in Wales seventy
seven years ago and came to this country
when about twenty-one years of age He
settled on Long Island and engaged in the
gardening business. In 1860, seeing the
natural advantages for his business in the
rich lands of Hudson county along the
old Communipaw Bay, he moved to
Lafayette and located on tract of land
bounded by what is now Pacific avenue,
Communipaw avenue, Halliday street and
the line of the Newark and New York
Railroad. He built homestead on the
bluff upon which most of this land was
located, and there continued in the gar
dening business. Later he moved to
Bramhall and Pacific avenues, where he
resided until the day of his death.
Mr.. Edwards, although a staunch
Democrat all his life, never took an ac-
tive part in politics. He was safe, con-
seryative citizen and did much to de-
velop that part of the city in which he
resided. An active member of the old
Lafayette Reformed Church he always
participated in the work Of his church in a
quiet and transformations manner He was
an enthusiastic curler and participated in
many an exciting match, which took
place on the rink which he maintained
for many years on his property along
the line of the Newark and New York
Railroad
In early life Mr.. Edwards married Miss
Emma Nation and their children are
William D., James N, who is superinten-
dent of the New Orleans News Company;
John T., Edward, Joseph, Emma, David
and Cornelius, all of whom, together with
Mrs. Edwards, are now living.
