oskaloosa, Iowa, Dec. q, 'o1.
DEAR HEARALD:
Having just returned from the Creek
Nation, /. t., and believeing that your
patrons will be glad to get some of
the information that / have gained
on my trip will give you few facts.
The Indians and other natives own
the lands which will soon be decided
to them. They will be permitted to
sell three forties of each 100 and must
keep one forty, which you can lease
in most cases for long time; you can
lease all the land you want now for
or 6 years and pay from Is cents per
acre up to SO cents, payable annually.
The Indians will not work the land,
and thousands of acres Of fine, rich
lands are idle. The prairie grass
there looks like Iowa did when new.
No buffalo grass; they NOW it for hay,
and more nigh, have been moved this
year, which was dry season.
There are some leases for sale; my
son bought lease that has years to-
run, at 20 cents per acre, which had
two-room house, a we'll, and about
half fenced, and 20 acres broke, for
$3.50. You don't pay anything the
improvements. Cotton is the best
paying crop, producing as high as a
bale per acre, which sells for $45. The
cotton gins will gin it for you and
pay you 81 per bale for the seed,
which they manufacture into cotto-
lene. Corn, wheat, oa,s, barley and
vegetables do well. also fruits are
fine. / bought property in Tulsa, a
CITY of from 1000 to $500 inhabitants.
The property is renting for 80 percent
of the purchase price. The town of
Tulsa is underlaid with coal. At
depth of 220 to ESQ feet there is a.
vein about 5 feet thick. A company
has struck gas, and it will not be.
long until the town is heated and
lighted by gas. The railroad fare to.
Tulsa IS $13.66. The town is improv-
ing fast. Large brick buildings are.
going up. She has churches and
schools, and the most friendly people
ever met, for strangers / preached
in the Presbyterian church, also in.
the M. e. church, and had a most
cordial invitation to their pulpit
again.
Tulsa is on the San Francisco rail-.
road. 1t has two mills and a cotton
gin. A man told me he counted thir-.
ty-six teams at one time waiting to.
unload cotton at the gin. All trades
are well represented except the saloon.
which Uncle Sam don't allow, but /
have been told that the druggist will
allow the Indian to steal A man
told me he was in drug store and
saw an Indian come in and lay down
dollar. He asked the druggist if the,
indian owed him. oaid he. Indians
will steal" The druggist then filled
bottle and went out at the back
door and put it in an old stove. Soon
the Indian came up and got the bottle
You may guess about the stealing.

A QUEER CASE.
An Evidently DemenIed Young Man
Taken I'm Charge by Officers.

Constable Andrews arrested a
young man supposed to be demented
Tuesday afternoon near Muchakinock
and returned him to this city.
The prisoner is about twenty-five
or three years of age, is quite we'll
dressed and of good appearance and
a good talker. The fellow stopped
first south OF the city at the Robert
Kent place and attempted to sell some
eye glasses. Mrs. Kent did not need
glasses but the boy then asked for a
piece of pie. He ate this and went to
sleep on the side porch. He came
about ten O'Clock and left about noon
going south. He stopped at the houses
along the road trying to sell his
glasses. At the Stevenson place south
of town he made threats about com
ing back at night and burning the
barn because they would not purchase
his glasses. Mrs. Stevenson COM
planned to the police and a warrant
was issued from Justice Rice's court
and an officer sent in pursuit of him.
The man made little resistance st
arrest. He talked of the insane
asylum at Elgin, Ill and about pub
lie buildings at Sioux City stating
that he wanted to burn all of them
together with the Mahaska county
court house. He was taken in charge
near Mucbakinock yards while try
ing to sell a pair of his glasses to
colored woman. He had visited al
most every house between this city
and the place where he was arrested.
The fellow told Mr.. Kent that his
name was Greensboro. Mr.. Kent
thought that the fellow was intoxi-
Gated and lectured him about the
same. He acknowledged that he was
drunk but could not tell how he came
that way. T fellow is q total
stranger here and will be held pend
ing investigation.

DIED BY LIMITATION.
oskaloosa is Now Free of Street
Car Franchises.


The Oskaloosa Street Railway Com
pany's franchise was not extended
Tuesday night. Pursuant to the ex-
pressed desires of Mr.. @. Winter,
Mayor Wray called for council
meeting to be held at the city hall
that evening for the purpose of con-
sidering the granting OF an extension
to the franchise for street railway
and lighting granted to the oskaloosa
street Railway Company by special
election Of the people and expiring by
Limitation January l..
Messrs. Winter and Peatman sought
an extension of ninety days, or until
work could be commenced in the
spring looking toward the completion
of the work proposed by the ordi-
nance by October 1, 1902.
No quorum OF the council Was se-
cured and hence no meeting could be
held and no business of any sort was
considered. Five of the members OF
the city council reported at some
time during the evening, but they
came and went and no action was
taken. Mayor Wray waited in the
council chamber until after 8 O'Clock
and then departed, leaving word
where he might be found in case a
quorum be secured.
UUfnkar THE rvnv,
tleman expressed himself as uncer-
tain what would be done in the mat
ter. He stated that he was of the
opinion that the clause in the fran.
chise limiting it's life did not invali-
date the franchise itself and that it
would still be possible for his people
to do business under the franchise.
Mr.. Winter further stated that in his
opinion there would be no street car
line built in the city of Oskaloosa
during the year of 1902 by any other
company than the Oskaloosa Street
Railway Company that is now seeking
an extension of time.
A number of the councilmen and
others waited about the city hall for
a couple of hours thinking that some
action might finally result but no
meeting was held and according to
the provisions of the franchise
granted by the city council and city
of Oskaloosa to the Oskaloosa Street
Railway Company its rights and
holdings in the city of Oskaloosa died
with the birth of the new year at
twelve O'Clock a. m January 1, 1902
And now the coast is clear for
other propositions that may seek en-
tertainment at the hands of the city
council and the people OF Oskaloosa.

CITY LIFE.
Or How They do Things Down at
EddyVIlle.

Eddyville Tribune: His name was
Jones, David Jones. and he blew into
town the latter part of the week. No
one seemed to know him or from
whence he came, but as he was on
friendly terms with everyone and es
pecially himself, it was the general
opinion of the street that he wanted to
spend Christmas in good town.
Neither his eyes or his feet seemed to
track very well, but as he carried
quite roll in his right hand sock this
slight matter was overlooked. Dur
ing his rounds of the health resorts he
fell in with a couple of characters
from Ottumwa by the names of Jerry
and Dick Williams. Jerry and Dick
seemed to be the kind of men that
were willing to treat themselves kind
ly as Jones claims they made them
selves Christmas present Of his
watch and disappeared. Constable
Beamer telegraphed a description of
the Williams boys and the watch to
Chief Gray, Of Ottumwa, Sunday, who
Immediately located them, and in their
possession was a watch answering the
description of the one lost By Jones
Constable Beamer brought them here
Tuesday and were given preIimin-
airy hearing before Mayor Funk yeater-
day, who bound Dick over TO the
grand jury and discharged Jerry.
