Discovery in rheumatism .

The Philadelphia Inquirer of recent
date. contains an account Of n most re
marfable discovery for the cure of rheu-
matism and neuralgia by the active prIn-
ciple of the bark of the Mountain willow
which has the wonderful power of ncutra-
lzing the acid in the system 50 that rheu-
matiSm affections cannot exist. DIR.
Stephenson, Of : Iryington ST.. Boston,
Mass. is the successful specialist who has
the honor of discovering this certain cure.
The Inquirer wired its Boston correspond
cnt to interview the doctor and this is
what he said regarding his discovery: Il
tested this remedy in hundreds of cases
before | made it public. | can cure rhcu-
matism, neuralgia, lumbago, sciatica, gout,
cct., without disturbing the stomach i'll the
least. and in a marvelously short time. /
do not know the limitations if there be
any, for nearly all cases which l have
taken have been pronounced as hopeless.

that | can cure a person just as surely by
sending the treatment direct to their

Of their case, as by talking to and treat

readers be interested it would be to their
advantage to write him.

to get out of the State, and he came
mighty near doing it. He reached the
fords Of the Ohio River near Burlington
Island several hours in advance of Hob
sons troops in pursuit. 1t was no fault
of Morgan's that he did not complete his
plans by crossing safely TO the West Vir-
ginia side of the Ohio River. He was de-
layed by an unexpected fog, one of those
dense Summer fOgs, hanging over the
river so that it was not possible for a
rider to see his hOrses's ears.
The ford near Burlington Island was of
a zig-Zag shape, and owing to the exceed
iagly dense fog his guides were not able
to keep the landmarks in view, and con-
stantly missed the ford, going into deep
water. Even starlight would have guided
them across the river, but owing to the
density of the fog the stars failed to serve
their purpose, and Morgan was perfOrce
compelled to wait, and this delay enabled
the pursuing troops to come up and force
Morgan to fight, the one thing he did not
want TO do, especially for the reason,
which all old soldiers viii appreciate, that
during his long march he had no oppor-

tunity TO replenish his ammunition, and
the cartridges with which he had started
out had become almost useless. These
were the paper cartridges used in those
days, and as his men covered the long
march the powder from these cartridges
sifted out and these weakened cartridges
would scarcely carry a ball 30 yards I'm
der this very serious circumstance there
was only one thing for Morgan to do, and
that was 20 run for it, and | am sure that
all those who were in pursuit of Morgan
win testify to the fact that he gave US a
mighty good run for our money.
The pursuit of Morgan through Ohio
was the biggest picnic | ever attended.
There were about 5000 veteran troops un-
der Gen. HObson, pursuing Morgan and
anywhere from 100000 to 1,0OO,OOO peo

less than 2J0,000 women engaged in fry

HOME FOR TIE YOUNG
John Hart's Beneficence Has Been
Won for Logan County.

FsOu TOT GO9dH 0otnty
Guthrie, o. T., Nov. Tho State Reg
lister says: The farm left by John T
Hart, in his will. for the benefit of the
dependent orphans of Logan county, and
which was fought by his relatives, has
been won by County Attorney Jones be-
fore the supreme court and is ready TO
be put to some charitable use. The farm
was left in the care of his personal
friend and neighbor. Albert Ploeger. until
he could turn il over to the county COM
| missioners and ne has nobly discharged
| his trust. AS there are now not enough
orphans in the country to I'LL an insti-
| tuition, it could be turned into a county
poor farm. 1t has been suggested that
the Ladies Benevolent Society of Guthrie
| could take charge and turn it into char
liable use until such time as the bequest
| Of the deceased can be complied with.
The farm is one Of the best In Logan
county, worth ar least 5000. It is within
| a few rods of the Seward depot, nearly
all bottom, with fine timber, and the Cot
tonwood runs through IL. 1t has sixty
acres under cultivation, and a good large
house and other improvements. It is
| considered that 1t would be better to have
1T farmed as poor farm than to rent
it TO private parties. The county helps
all demands of the poor now by making
a money order for the things needed on
some grocery. The method is not sat
isfactory. 1t meets with many IMPOSE
tons.
John 7. Hart, the noble donor OF this
bequest, was born in CORTLAND county,
NYarx Va IL, gol L.,
on his farm, near Seward. December 1899.
He was a practicing lawyer In New York
state and admitted TO practice in the SUI
preme court of that state in 1880. He
served five years in the regular army.
being mustered out In 1880, in Albuquer-
que, n. NJ. His discharge papers show
that during that time he saved 81, 255.l6
out of his pay. which is placed in army
records as the second greatest amount
saved out of pay in the history OF the
army. His discharge papers show every
quality of trustworthiness in the highest
degree. In the Spanish-American war
he applied to Governor c. NJ. Barnes for
enlistment.
The deceased was never married Be-
cause a brother and sister never took
up his mind that he would leave what
property he had to the unfortunate
orphans whose life is even more lonely
than his own had ever been. II is the
first public bequest in Oklahoma, and as
such should be commemorated by a hand
some monument to the public spirited
giver, who walked during his time
straight honest path of life. There are
richer men in the territory than he, but
he was the pioneer doner of public insti-
tutions, and his gift, though humble. is
an example for future emulation. The
future unfortunate boys and girls as they
till the fields or sit in the shade of the
trees. or boat on the Cottonwood, will
think with affection of, to them, unknown
lonely man, out of whose loneliness went
a heart in love for them. The people of
Logan county should use this gift in a
worthy way that will do credit to the
donor and to them.

INTEREST OF SPECTATORS
Beaver County Paper Takes Stand
Against Communication.

INTEREST OF 5IECULAIORS
Guthrie. o. r. Nov. 1.-The Guyman
Herald says: For some time a few have
been agftating a movement for legisla-
ton TO permit recent settlers IN Beaver
county 10 prove up at the expiration
OF fourteen months residence without
paying the necessary Communication price
Of 3.5 per acre. Such a law would not
benefit new settlers and would be rank
injustice TO older settlers. because the
county would be taken UP by hoaters
and would pass from them 70 spectators
at the expiration OF fourteen months
and would be damaging 70 the material in
terests OF the actual residents OF the
county, and the only person who would
be actually enriched would be bonded
abstractor in Beaver county who would
get about S IN fees for each transfer OF
land made. II Is logical then 70 conclude
that the abstractor would be interested
in the enactment OF such q law for per-
sonal gain. and leave the real welfare OF
the people in the background

NAT M'KAY ESTATE
Fight for a Handsome Personal For
tune is Begun.

Guthrie, o. t, Nov. LIN 2 Washing
ton dispatch appears the following rela-
tive to the first move in the fight for the
late Colonel Nat. Mckay Of this city.
Proceedings which are believed to be
the first step in the delayed settlement
of the large estate Of Colonel Nathaniel
Mckay, formerly of Oklahoma. were be-
gun in the supreme court of the District
of Columbia today by the Dewey Hotel
company, against Mrs. Mabel Grace Nc
Kay. wife of the deceased; Mrs. Elizabeth
r. Weidersheim, Of Philadelphia, and
Mrs. Harriet Kneisley of Guthrie, Okla,
daughters Of Mckay and his son-in-law,
Joseph J. F. Klein, to establish lien on
the Mckay residence in this city.
Colonel Mckay was a well known resi-
dent of the district, who died July 10
last at At lantic City. He left an estate
the value of which has been variously es-
timated at from 100000 to $1,OO0.OO0. Col
oneI Mckay was closely associated with
a number of business enterprises in this
city and elsewhere, the most important
ana extensive of which, it is understood,
was the Dewey hotel. He was vice
president and general manager of this
elegant hosiery, and 1t is said that he
was the owner of all the capital stock
of the company, with the exception Of a
very sman part, which was held by the
husband of his daughter, Mrs. Elizabeth
r. Weidersheim.
The delay in the settlement of the es-
tate has been attributed to the difficulty
anticipated in the settlement At the
time of his death Colonel Mckay had two
other wives living, from which it was
asserted he had been divorced. One Of
these wives. Mrs. Jenie Pope Mckay, of
Brooklyn, n. Y. denied the validity of
the proceedings through which an alleged
divorce was obtained by Colonel Mckay.
and contended that she was his lawful
wife The divorce was obtained in Okla
homa six months before the marriage of
Miss Geyser. 1t is alleged that on ac-
count fthese contentious of Mrs. Pope
Mckay. Colonel Mckay conveyed to his
son-in-law. Joseph J. E. Klein, and to
Mrs. Mabel Grace Mckay, a considerable
portion of the property and gave uncon-
ditionally to Mrs Grace Mckay an
amount of personal property which iIs
Guided a number of interest bearing
bonds, household effects, etc, represent
ing in all a considerable sum of money.
The Kansas City Journal says that Miss
Mabel Grace Geyer was employed by the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas Trust COM
pany and lived in Kansas City from
1895 10 1890. Colonel Mckay aided the
Sunwell interests in getting some legisla-
