SHOT HIS OWN WIFE.
Thought She Was a Burglar Breaking
Into the House.

One of those sad, sad tragedies
which arises every once in while
comes TO us through the Muskogee
Times as follows;
At their home near the White
church, eight miles east Of this place.
W. f. Cowden shot his wife Sunday
night and she will probably die.
Cowden got up and went out of the
house and when she returned and was
fastening the door made a noise that
reused her husband who did not know
she had gotten up. He called to her
and she answered but he did not seem
to hear and reaching for his revolver
shot at a person whom he thought
was a burglar breaking into the house.
his aim was good even though Il was
dark and at the first shot his wife sank
to the floor with bullet In the lower
abdomen. The 0all ranged downward
aud lodged in the pelvic bone. DR..
Milton Thompson who Is in attend.
ance states that the wound is a very
dangerous one and that the woman has
only small chance for recovery.
AS soon as Cowden learned of his
fearful mistake he ran to a neigh.
bor's house and told them what had
occurred, leaving his wife where she
had fallen.
Mi and Mrs. Cowden have lived in
TIE Territory about a year and came
here from Tennessee. They have nc
children. Before her marriage Mrs
Cowden was Blankenship and she
has several brothers In this country

ARIZONA THE FIRST
To Dc Benefited By the Arid Land Blli- Salt River Valley ts se Developed
 Causes Much ReDslcln1.

The first arid land reclamation work to be undertaken under the Hans brough- Newland act will be in Arizona where the greatest need of immediate relief has been found. If Secretary Hitchcock approves of the recommen- dations to be made by Director Wal colt and Chief Hydrographer Newell of the geological survey, the first sys- tenn to be developed will be that of the Salt River valley surrounding Phoe- nix, where wells will be sunk and water pumped to adjacent lands. Sur veys looking to this end have recently been conducted by Hydrographer Davis of the geological survey.
 The chief reason for selecting this system first is that many people have settled upon the fertile lands of the Salt River valley, expecting private irrigation enterprises to furnish water which they have been unable to do in sufficient quantity. As result of this scarcity the population surrounding Phoenix is diminishing and the officers of the survey report deplOrable con- dition of affairs. A comparatively small outlay for wells and pumping plants, it is believed, will bring about great extensions of the cultivated area of the valley. Almost the same con- dition exist in Nevada, along the Truckee and Carson rivers, though the population is not diminishing by reason of the water shortage. It is probable that irrigation development will be begun there after the Arizona project is under way.

The Best Remedy for Group.

From the Atchison, Kan, Daily Globe. This is the season when the woman who knows the best remedies for croup is in demand in every neighbOrhoOd. One of the most terri ble things in the world is to be awakened in the middle of the night by whOOp from one of the children. The crOup remedies are almost as sure to be lost, in case of croup, as a re- volver is sure to be lost in case of burglars. There used to be an old fashioned remedy for croup, known as hive syrup and tolu, but some modern mothers say that Chamber lain's Cough Remedy is better, and does not cost so much. It causes the patient to ''throw up the phlegm" quicker, and gives relief in a shorter time. Give this remedy as soon as the croupy cough appears and it will prevent the attack. It never fails and is pleasant and safe to take. For sale by Pioneer Drug Store.
