LINDSEY BEGS FOR MERCY.
The Land Swindler Pleads Guilty in
the Federal Court.

Robert =. Lindsey, who was indicted
for fraudulent use OF the mails in CON
nection with the sale of titles TO gov
eminent land in Oklahoma, withdrew
his plea of not guilty and threw him
self upon the mercy of the federal
court this morning. Judge Philips said
he would hold sentence for a while.
This practically puts an end to one of
the most extensive land swindles that
has ever been perpetrated in connec-
ton with the opening up of the public
domain in the southwest and by means
of which cores of farmers were traded
out of their farms and credulous men
and women lost their homes.
Lindsey claimed to have a title un-
der an old Mexican land grant to fifty
four sections of land, a~ggregating L.
O64 100 acres, in the western half of
Beaver county, Oklahoma, practically
all OF which was subject to entry UNI
der the homestead laws of the United
States. In spite of a decision Of the
United States supreme court declaring
mis- title to be void, Lindsay, through
various agents, put out deeds to this
land, mat were traded from one person

A suit has been filed to petition the
estate of John Burger, who died

They Defended the Flag.

Newport, Kentucky, October 1O--Ex-
cited Daughters of the Confederacy
formed compact in Carnegie hall library
to-day and successfully resisted the ef-
forts of Janitor Boyd, under orders of
Secretary Albert Silva, of the library
trustees, to tear down and immense Con-
federate flag which occupied. the most
conspicuous place over the center of the
stage. The hall was put at the disposal
of the Daughters of the Confederacy
only after considerable. opposition
When Secretary Silva learned that the
feature of the decorations was the big
Confederate flag he requested Fire Chief
Waters, who assisted the ladies in deco
rating the stage, TO remove the flag un-
der penalty that the hall would not be
opened. Waters refused unless in
structed to do 80 by the mayor. Then
Silva went to Mayor Nelson.
After due deliberation they sent q re-
quest to the Daughters to remove the
flag the place Of honor. The Daughters
Indignantly refused. Then Silva ordered
the janitor to tear it down, but when
Boyd attempted to carry out the orders
the Southern women blocked the aisles
and nothing short of armed violence
could have secured him a right of way
to the flag. The directors were unable
to decide upon further proceedings to
remove the flag, and on Mayor Nelson's
personal order the flag was allowed to
remain and the convention was hold.
James NJ. Arnold, who served in the
Confederate army, in a brief speech
said:
"There is no sentiment connected with
that flag. 1t is simply memento of

A Beautiful idea.

Away among the Alleghanies
there is spring so small that a
single OK could drain it dry on a
summer day. 1t steals its unobtru-
sive way among the hills till it
spreads out in the beautiful Ohio.
Thence it stretches away a thousand
miles, leaving on it's banks more than
a thousand villages and cities, and
bearing on its bosom more than half
a thousand steamboats,. Then join
ing on the Mississippi, it stretches
away some twelve hundred miles
more, till it falls into the great
emblem of eternity. 1t is one of the
tributaries of the ocean, which,
obedient only to God, shall roll and
roar until the angel, with one foot
on the sea and the other on the land, :,
shall lift up his hand to heaven and
swear that time shall be no longer.
So with moral influence. 1t is the
rill, the rivulet, the ocean, boundless
and fathcmless as eternity.

Boxes fcr Rural Free Deliver.

The Postmaster General has is-
sued an order regarding the kind of
boxes the patrons of free delivery
service are required to secure for the
reception of mail matter carried by
the carriers. The circular says:
ORDER NO. 739.
Ordered, That in all rural free de-
livery service, established on and af-
ter October l, 1902, these require
ments shall be observed.
Each person desiring the rural free
delivery service must erect at his
own cost, ami in the manner pre-
scribed by the regulations of the
Department., a box complying with
the following specifications
Material.-All square and oblong
boxes shall be made of not less than
20 standard gauge sheet iron or sheet.
steel, and galvanized, the edges of
which shall be supported or strength
eDed either by folding the metal
back upon itself, or by riveting to
the edges band iron or steel at least
l-l6 inch in thickness and at least
one-half inch in width, or by wiring
with at least No. 10 gauge wire; pro.
vided, if box be made of heavier
material than 90 gauge, the above
requirements as to reinforcements
need not be observed.
Bach box must be erected by the
roadside, so that the carrier can
easily obtain access to it without dis
mounting from his vehicle. The
same box must not be used for more
than one family, except in case of
near relatives or those residing in
the same house.
Persons neglecting or refusing to
comply with these conditions will be
regarded as not desiring rural free
delivery, and the rural carrier will
be directed not to serve them.
In all service heretofore estab-
llshed, and wherein inappropriate,
unsafe and unsuitable boxes are i'm
use, the Department will expect that
patrons of rural free delivery (now
accepted as a permanent feasure of
postal service) will conform as
promptly as possibly to the foregoing
requirements, if they desire the con-
tlnuance of rural free delivery.
Those charged with the administra-
tion of the service will put this order
into effect with firmness, but without
undue haste or harshness.

Congressman Aiken on the Coal Strike.

News was received in Anderson
yesterday that suit had commenced
against the Pennsylvania coal ope-
rators for violation of the Sherman
antitrust law.
A New York newspaper wired to
a local newspaper man asking him to
interview Congressman elect Aiken
on the matter. Mr.. Aiken dictated
the following: "For years the coal
operators have defed the State law
of Pennsylvania and the Sherman
antitrust law, and the time has now
arrived when the strong arm of the
law should be vigorously and aggres-
sively enforced against them to the
fullest extent. The statutes provide
amply for this enforcement, and the
Attorney General should promptly
do his sworn duty."-Anderson
