CAPTURED Thorp, the Claim Saster, Again in the Tolls. Disguised as a Cripple He Tried to Board the OregOn...Frank
 SS:;.mg!Goas Also Caught.

Two men who were anxioGs to evaoe the officers of the law were capt urea on Thursday afternoon just prior SS the sailing of the steamship Oregon. oH
 One of these was J. w. Thorp pr Thorpson, the man arrested and subse- quently indicted for salting . Flambeau river claim. A few days after his arrest Thorp escaped from Deputy Marshal Sloan, while being brought down town.
 | The other man brought back from the Oregon and landed on terra frma was Frank F.. SimOns, the show man. Simons was wanted as q witness in the case of the United States against Chalmers: he was also wanted because | of an indictment which the grand jury 1 found against him on a charge of whole sailing liquors, etc., on retail license. Simons ignored the subpoena and tried to get out of the reach of a warrant. l Marshal Richards vigilant force of deputies, and Acting Chief of Police James and the police officers, ever since the escape of Thorp, had been making | diligent search for him and the outgO- 1 ing steamers were carefully watched. , Thorp was spotted on barge Thurs day forenoon that was being lowed out /, to the Oregon. His face and head were bandaged, his face discolored, his hands bound up, and he limped in both legs. He looked, in fact, as though he recently emerged from Kansas cyclone or had been through q powder mill ex- plosion. Deputy Marshal Lowe was on the barge and his suspicious were aroused Going up to ThOrp he asked him what was the matter. ThOrp said he had been severely hurt. Lowe knew his voice and yanked the bandage of ThOrp's face while some of the specta- tors grew indignant at the treatment of the deputy. Their murmurings soon ceased for when the bandage had been removed there was the real Thorp, sound as q nut save for the dishgura- tions on his face, caused by iodine and red ink, which were found in his pocket.
 Thorp states stat he was in hiding l in Nome for a couple of days after his 1 escape, when he made his way to Anvil creek and went to work on claim under the name of Murray.
 Capture of Sim0ns.
 Simons' capture was effected about 1 ten minutes prior to the time Of the Oregon s sailing. He was found beneath a blind hatch, under which he had crawled. He had, 1t is said, been on board the steap,ar about 36 hours. He was brought ashore and was subse- { quently released on bail.

A Big Gravel Bed.

Dr.. A. De Soto, the well known min- ing operator has secured about 2O00 acres of mining ground on the Neuk- lux, opposite Council City.
 For two years he has had men quietly prospecting this ground, and by sys- tematic work 3j,00O feet of gravel has been opened up, and pans running from 8 cents to 75 cents obtained. In cross cut of 1920 feet pans running as high as P cents were found. Not content with this, he placed two men at work in the cut with a rocker, and the result of ten hours labor, in which time four cubic yards of dirt were treated, was little over $l6 in gold.
 By sinking holes it was ascertained that the fiat consists of six river beds, with bedrock of decomposed slate and iron. The actual measurements taken are as follows: Length of river beds, 10000 feet: average depth, s feet; aver age width, 330 feet: or an aggregate of between 00,000,000 and 600, 1000, ,00O cubic yards of pay gravel.

A CONFEDERATE HOME.

The Confederate Memorial ASSOC
citation of the Indian Territory has
been incorporated under the laws Of
Arkansas as a stock company, for
the purpose of providing home for
infrm and INDECENT Confederate sol
diers so that they can be taken care
of in their old age and destitution and
may have an honorable burial when
ate soldier is one of the most indie
pendent men on this earth. But
there are some among them who
have met with misfortunes and are
in a dependent condition. 1t should
be a pleasure 70 their more fortunate
comrades as we'll as 20 the Sons and
daughters of the Confederate soldiers
and all lovers Of the South to do
what they can towards making the
last days of these old heroes, who
have cast their lot among us, days
of peace and comfort. There will
never be but one crop OF Confederate
soldiers. Their number is constant
ly becoming smaller and all will soon
be gone. II We have it in our hearts
to do anything for these grand old
men whose courage and heroism up
on a thousand battle fields has won
the admiration Of the civilized world,
we must be prompt about it or we
will be too late.
Language cannot describe the pri-
vations and hardships they endured
and the dangers they faced for their
country's sake. We love to tell them
of our appreciation of what they
have done. Let us show our appre-
citation in a more substantial manner
than in words. Il Is a hollow mock
cry TO place flowers on the graves
OF men after they are dead. when we
stood by and saw them suffer and
starve while they were alive. and did
nothing to relieve their distress. We
believe that no trouble will be ex-
perienced in selling enough stock to
make this Confederate home
complete success. To doubt
this is TO doubt the sincerity of the
professions of regard, we so often
hear expressed Of the old Confederate
soldier. The shares of stock are
placed at 50 each so that all may
have it in their power to help. Let
us show our regard for the Confeder-
ate soldier by taking as many shares
OF stock as possible. Judge John L.
Gait at Ardmore will be pleased to
explain the matter fully to all inter
ested, and take your subscription for
stock.

The matter OF building and keep

OF the most essential factors towards
the installation OF free postal de.

from time 10 time urged the neces-
sity of this work in order to obtain
this postal service At present the
sidewalk question is the only thing
in the way OF acquiring the service,
as the houses are being numbered
as rapidly as possible, and the mat.

the re-districting OF the city for the
establishment Of the routes. Surely
our people win take up the matter OF
getting the sidewalks in front OF their

Washington, July eat is expect
ed at the war department that Con-
sui Bragg viii resign his position at
Havana within the next two weeks.
The officials all recognize that the
general can no longer be of service
to the government after his recent
criticism Of the character of the Gu
bans, and it is believed that he will
show appreciation of the situation
by presenting his resignation. This
will be the least difficult manner Of
closing the incident. Should the gen
eral fail to resign, it is expected that
the Cuban government viii either
dismiss him or request his recall by
