IMAeINEs HE'S HOLY ONE.
Hopeless Case Of Insanity is Found
Near Saltwater.

Saltwater. 0. T., Dec 6.-Sam Coon,
well known In Payne county for the past
10 years, was brought TO town from his
home near Perkins yesterday violently in
sane. says the Gazette. Mr.. Coon is a
Holiness preacher, and is demented on the
subject of his religious creed. For some
time previous TO the latter part of last
week he had been preaching near Chan
dler and when he came home and came
into the house he attacked his boy, calling
him devil and telling him TO get out
at once. His family, noticing his condi-
ton. watched him closely, but Sunday
night he escaped. going in the direction
Of the river. As he Travelled he proceeded
to remove his clothing, leaving them scat
tered along the road, until he was stark
naked.
When the river was reached he waded
across. and when he recrossed he de-
clared the waters parted. allowing him to
cross with dry feet. He unfortunately
ran into wire fences, and was pretty bad
" scra atched UP when a searching party
found him.
At his trial before the insane board he
berated the officers Of the court. declaring
they were devils and possessed of all
sorts Of evil spirits. and grew so violent
at times that it was necessary TO put the
.Irons" on him. At times he thinks he is
Jesus Christ. and at other times he pro-
fesses desire to visit the wise men Of
the East" Last night he refused to eat
and declared II his intention 70 fast for
40 days; but he evidently forgot about
that this morning. for he ate hearty
breakfast and evinced willingness TO do
lust as DR.. Mayginnes asked him to.
When reporter called to see him at the
tan this morning and asked him how he
was feeling the reporter was very forci-
bly, requested TO get thee behind me.

BY HIS STERN JUDGE
But Only as Having Made
Great Mistake.
Icy HIS STERN JUDGE

Guthrie, 0. T, Dec. 6.-Horace Speed.
United States District Attorney. returned
today from his Washington trip His Of
fee was crowded all afternoon by people
wanting information regarding the policy
President Roosevelt intended IN regard 10
Oklahoma affairs In speaking of the
feeling toward Ex-Governor jenkins ex-
lsting in Washington. Mr.. Speed said;
while in Washington I never heard any
one speak unkindly of Mr. Jenkins. No
person in official circles criticised his acts
as being morally wrong, and, on the con-
trary. that question was entirely waived
by the President when he made a state
ment in my presence 10 Congressman Cur
It's. in which he said that he did not at
tribute any intentional wrong TO Mr.. Jen-
kins, but considered his act in the Sani-
tarium matter as an error"
Mr.. Hitchcock evidently took the same
view Of the matter. The question as 10
Mr.. jenkins successor was much dis
cussed around the hotels. kilograms and
letters recommending some = CT 80 men
were received at Washington. Many OF
the names mentioned were outside or Ok
khona, but no outsider was seriously
Considered.
There is much talk in the toles ard on
the streets tonight regarding the report
received here that special agents are 10
investigate the Sanitarium matter, and
that all federal and other officials con-
rected with the institution must 60. It is
believed that every member of the Gov
ernor's cabinet viii be removed and new
men appointed in their places.
Politicians figure that a general shak-

ed and the question now IS, where viii it
end? The talk Of a special session OF the
Legislature to make arrangements for
the care of the insane is very strong.
Whether an extra session viii be called
is not known. but it is generally conceded
that it would be a good move on the part
of the new Governor to call a special ses-

IN CLEAN CUT STATEMENT

Guthrie. 0. T. Dec s.-since the re-
Inoval Of Governor jenkins for his con-
nection with the Oklahoma sanitarium,
there have been rumors that other men
holding public positions have also been
interested in the institution Among
names mentioned is that of William
Crimes, secretary of the territory. now
acting governor. Mr.. Grimes was asked
by the correspondent for the Eagle if
he is. or had been in any manner, inter-
ested IN the Oklahoma sanitarium. In
answer to the question, Mr.. Grimes said:
Il wish to say that never have at any
time owned any interest directly. or in
directly in the stock. property or privil-

pany; that 1 never participated directly
or indirectly IN securing the contract,

reason Of its having been let to the san

The rumors going the rounds have not
only included Mr.. Grimes, but other Of
1icials as well, and like Mr. Grimes,
many Of the persons mentioned have
never owned stock in the institution, &C

TREED BY PANTHER.
Is Only One Of Awful Experiences of
Shawnee Huntino Party,

Shawnee, o. T, Dec. 6.-The Democrat
prints the following tale OF the awful ex-
periences encountered by party of
hunters from shat city in the wilds of the
Creek nation:
\ hunting party. composed OF Fred
Strube. John Logan, Bud Belts and some
other gentlemen. who about 10 days ago
left the city for a hunt in the Creek na-
ton. returned last night with a lot OF
game and some hard-luck and privation
stories.
The company penetrated the widest
part OF the country before going into
camp, which act came very near being
the cause of Mr.. Strube and Mr.. Logan's
undoing. for no sooner were the tents
pitched than these two gentlemen struck
out through the trackless forest and got
lost.
They wandered many miles. they say.
and suffered much hunger and privation
during the days of their absence. but
finally, by keeping up an almost constant
firing Of their guns. their comrades at the
camp succeeded IN signalling them back
to the camp.
The most hair-raising experience, how
ever. It is said. is related by Mr.. Belts.
who. out alone several miles, was treed
by panther. having 20 remain out on
high limb OF a tree all night and perhaps
ionger-anyhow. until the bioodthirsty
brute got weary OF waiting for a feast
from his body and left him there and
went in search OF other prey.
Altogether. the boys seem 70 have had

FEW PEOPLE REALIZE.
The Danger in That Common Disease,
Catarrh.

Catarrh.
Because catarrhal diseases are so com
mon, and because catarrh is not rapidly
fatal, people too often overlook and ne

velope-as a result of the neglect.
The innamed condition of the membrane
of the nose and throat makes fertile
soil Tor the germs of pneumonia and con-
sumption: in fact. catarrhal pneumonia
and catarrhal consumption are the most
common forms OF these dreaded diseases
which annually cause more than one
quarter Of the deaths in this country.
Remedies for catarrh are almost as nu-
merous as catarrh sufferers. but very few
have any actual merit as a cure. the
only good derived being simply a tempo
rary relief.
There is. however. a very effective rem
coy. recently discovered. which is rapidly
becoming famous for its great value in
relieving and permanently curing all
