Woodslleld, o., Aug. 15.-At nine
o'clock yesterday fire broke out in the
immense barns and stables of Will
liam Watson, destroying live stock
property to the value of $4,000.
The stables were used to keep the
horses, wagons and matrials used in
the oil fields there. Twenty-four
horses were burned to death, fifty wag-
ons buggies and other material de-
stroyed. Over eighty teams were kept
in the stables but all but the twenty
four horses were out of the stable at
the time. The fire is supposed to have
been of incendiary origin. A man was
seen to run from the barn shortly be-
fore the fire broke out. There is

AWFUL CASE
Of Destitution i'm our Neigh
boring City.

Special to the Leader.
Parkersburg, w. Va, Aug. 15.-One
of the worst cases of destitution that
has ever come to the attention of the
Humane Agent Thanhouser was re-
ported to him this morning by resi-
dents of Gould avenue, and he went
out to make an investigation. What
he saw, he says, was enough to excite
the pity of anyone. Huddled together
in cramped quarters in the old dilapi-
dated building near the street car
barns, he found Mrs. John Clark and
seven children almost in a famished
condition.
In the same building are several
other families, and although theysa are
poor they are not suffering for some
thing to eat as he found in the case
above mentioned. The children had
not tasted food since yesterday, and
when Colonel Thanhouser called they
presented pitiful sight. The quart
ers were almost devoid of furnishings
and filth abounded on every hand
Colonel Thanhouser ascertained
that John Clark, the head Of the fam
lily, did not stay at home and very
seldom furnished any provisions for
his wife and children.

INDIANS AFTER LANDS.
Scheme to Block the Drawings at I'll Reno
EOstered by Keo Tuck.

OKLAHOMA CITY, o. r, July 2S.-
Keo Tuck, a Sac Indian, has given
notice at the land Office of Ell Reno
of his intention to file on the quarter
section of the land ADJOINING the town
site of Lawton, which has become the
principal town in the new country Of
the Kiowa and Comanche reservation.
This is probably the most valuable
tract out of the entire 1900 to be
opened. The application is nude
under a section of the United States
statutes passed in 1887, which gives
every homeless Indian the right to go
to any part Of the public domain and
to make entry for any tract of land
that is not in possession of a home
steader. The section has never been
repealed, and the right of the Indians
who have no allotments or who were
omitted from the tribal rolls is one
that they can exercise at any time. It is
stated. With Keo Tuck were sixty
members OF Sac and Fox Tribes, who
propose to make filings, and attorneys
throughout the country are said to be
searching for other Indians who have
lost their tribunal relations and who
have not secured possession of home
stead tracts. 1t is believed that there
are 500 in the two tribes who can Sc
cure choice claims in advance of
ones who have registered by simply
making their filings Tho nIan ic IN
select the lands they desire. and then
go into court and ask for a restraining
order to prevent the registrars and
receivers from accepting filings on the
tracts selected, This will, If success
full, give the Indians time to perfect
their title to the best quarter sections
of land in the new country.
