PIRACY THE. OUTLAW"

Percy Williams big production of soTracy the Outlaw" which is sched- uled for a return performance at Polls on Wednesday evening, offers excite ment enough for the most enthusiastic seeker after sensationalis1n on the stage. And to make it more real Man ager Williams had photographs of the scenes of Tracy's flight made and from them nine most beautifully picturesque scenes have been painted for the play. The horse, saddle, bridle, pistol, belt, lariat, etc, used by Tracy the last week of his liberty have been purchased and are used in the play. From the warden of the Oregon state prison the two bloodhounds used In tracking Tracy have been secured as a loan and will be used to illustrate the unerring accuracy of these intelligent animals in tracking fleeing fugitive. The play is well put on and offers capital entertainment for lovers of melo- drama Seats will go on sale to-mor- row at popular prices.

 WHE story of the fight around the
 little farmers depot known as
 Thompson's Station, in central
 Tennessee, on March 5, 1863,
 reads like page in the history of the Boer war-for instance, Nichol- sons Nek or Sannas Post, with De Wet for the hero A Federal column of 1900 men started out early to head off and fight the enemy. The enemy was also out early and after giving the Federals all the fighting they cared to stand up against marched them en masse to Libby prison.
 The Confederate leaders in this bold war, like De Wet and his colleagues, although Forrest, the real hero of the masterly exploit, had come up from the class of farmer soldiers. Forests chief in the affair at Thompson's Sta tion, Earl Van Dorn, was an ex-regular officer trained at West Point His daring strategy in the war had already won him fame. Van Dorn had just Joined the Confederate army in Ten nessee from Mississippi with 4,50O troopers, the men who had figured in his last previous exploit, the capture of Grants military supply depot at Holly Springs. With Forrest rode the remnant of the brigade he fought so desperately at the attack on Fort Don elson month before, about 600 sa- bers.
 The day preceding the fight at Thompson's Station the Federal 'brt gade of Colonel Coburn, comprising the Thirty third and Mghty-ffth Indi-

ana, the Twenty third Wisconsin, the Nineteenth Michigan infantry and the Ninth Pennsylvania cavalry, marched from Franklin southward under in- structions from the commanding gen. eral to go as far as Spring Hill and see sswhat is in our front" The country ahead of the column was broken by long swells and ridges fifty to POO feet high, and the outlook from any point did not extend beyond half a mile to the south. Late in the day the enemy was met in lively skirmish, the fact reported back to headquarters and the column placed in position for night attack. Early on the 9th negro brought word to Colonel Coburn that Van Dorn was marching to attack Franklin and had already passed Spring Hill to the northward. This news was also sent back to headquar- ters without bringing modification of Coburn's orders to go to Spring Hill.
 There being no enemy in sight at 8 o'clock a. m., Coburn sent his cavalry to SCOUT the country, and the infantry marched forward. As the column ad- vanced 1t stirred up the skirmishers of the enemy, who slowly retired and re- fused battle. At Thompson's Station the pike leading to Spring Hill and the railroad pass through a gap in a low range of hills covered with cedars and having steep bluffs. Just in advance of the station Coburn's cavalry dis lodged some Confederate sHrmishers, and it looked for the moment as though the enemy would not stand for battle. But Forrest and Van Dorn had their lines hidden behind those convenient hills waiting for the foe to walk into the trap. Van Dorn got word the night of the 4th of Coburn's intended trip to Spring Hill, and before daylight of the 9th his squadrons and batteries were posted along the ridge to the right and left and in the rear of the gap at Thompson's Station. Coburn ap- preached cautiously, sending his caval- ry and guns, with infantry supports, to the knolls which overlooked the narrow valley. He intended to establish him. self in the gap and wait for re-enforce- ments to cope with Van Dorn.
 While the Federa1s were pushing for ward for vantage ground Van Dorn's guns opened upon them. Undaunted, Coburn's men rushed for the battery and were within 150 yards of it when the troopers in gray, dismounted and

BIG sTENoGRAPHIC FEAT.
Remarkable Work of Three Men Taking Testimony Before the
 Coal Strike Commission.

Three stenographers, and sometimes bnly two, in two weeks time took nown almost 900 newspaper columns bf the proceedings of the anthracite strike commission. All told, there Mere 100000 words uttered during the session of the commissioners, re- ports the Chicago Tribune.
 The shorthand report of all these proceedings, the testimony of coal operators, miners, railroad men, boys, and women of a dozen different na- Monalities and a score of dialects, all went into the official reports of the procee edings, and together with the wrangling, examining, cross question ing, and arguments of two score or more lawyers, never less than 22, and the questions and comments of the seven members of the commission, kept the official stenographers busy every second of the day and far into the night. Yet every morning each bf the commissioners, lawyers, and chief witnesses were handed full and complete typewriter report of the proceedings of the day previous.
 The stenographers began work talk ing down notes at ten o'clock in the morning. The first reporter began by taking shorthand notes for 30 min utes. Then another stenographer took a seat at the table, and as soon as he began taking down the proceed ing the first man beat a hasty retreat to small room In the rear of the hall, where he dictated his notes to type writer operator. The second steno- grapher would take notes for 45 min utes, when he would be relieved by the third man. By the time the third man had taken notes for 30 or 40 min- utes the first stenographer had fin- ished transcribing his notes and was ready to come back to the firing line.
 During the noon hour, when the Commission and the lawyers and wit nesses were out regaling themselves at luncheon the stenographers would be wrestling with their pothooks and talking away briskly to the typewriter Operators. Just before two they would take a few minutes to swallow sandwich and cup of milk, and then begin work for the afternoon. After tbe court had adjourned at 4:30 the Photographers would find themselves possessed of enough material to keep them dictating until we'll on towards midnight. Then they would have to read the copy made by the typewriters, compare it with their notes, and cor rect all errors.

A NOTABLE INDIAN.
Red Cousin of Senator Morgan and . Leading Citizen of the vas1-
 Ol1ee Nation.


 The Hon. Gideon Morgan is an en- rolled citizen of the Cherokee nation, He is a half-breed, a cousin of United States Senator Morgan, of Alabama, and holds position of much pro1ni- hence and influence among both h. dians and white men throughout the Indian territory. He was the per- manent chairman of the single state hood convention recently held at Oklahoma City, and presided in such @gnffied, able and impartial way as to call forth the praise and admira tion of the delegates and everybody else present. The ssOklahoman, in it's reports of the meetings of the con- vention, particularly extols the con- duct and work of MT. Morgan, says the Kansas City Journal.
 But the compliments bestowed upon the Indian statesman for the ability and good Judgment he displayed on this occasion is not so Interesting as the fact that a leading Oklahoma paper calls him, who is only half h. dian, Representative Cherokee in every sense of the word,n and "a per- feet type of the civilized, educated American Indian The "Oklahoman" has an intimate knowledge of Indian life and affairs, and undoubtedly has advisedly used these terms and phrases. And the natural conclusion to be drawn therefrom is that if MT. Morgan is a perfect type of an Indian. there are no full blood Indians now existing in the country. This idea. however, is not a new one. It pre- vails to a wide extent among the people of the United States, and is justified by the appearance and cus- tom of the Indians themselves nowa- days. It is the accepted belief that the red men were originally so-called because of their color. The Indians of the territory are perhaps as near to their primitive state as the Indians in any other part of the nation are. and yet it would be impossible to find very many there the color of whose skin would warrant the epithet of l ''red men," In fact, of the s7,0oo in the territory which the government classes as Indians, only ten per cent. are recognized as full-bloods, and even the latter have a copper or muddy yell low complexion.
 | There were hundreds of thousands more Indians in this country when l Columbus discovered it than is shown l to be here in the last census. But it would seem that the disappearance of the noble redman has been brought about not as much by war as by other and gentler influences.

in hiding, sprang forward and met the resolute fellows with hot fire from their carbines. At the end of half an hours struggle the Eederals retired, but the incident gave Coburn's Eight eenth Ohio battery time to unlimber for action on knoll fifty feet above the valley. Three guns opened fiercely upon the Confederates, who. began to show themselves boldly over the field.
 While the firing was hottest at the station Colonel Coburn's scouts report ed a body of Confederate cavalry mov- ing around his left on crossroad. Be- ing convinced that he had stirred up a hornets nest, the luckless colonel or dered the force to retreat from the sta ton before the line was outfianked. The cavalry and artillery which should have covered the withdrawal of the in- fantry left the field and were seen no more in the fight. Coburn accused the officers of these commands of deserting him in his extremity.
 The Federal retreat was the signal for dash from Van Dorn's center up- on the station. Parts of three brigades charged the station, but were fought off by Coburn's men, The Confederates had no bayonets, and but for the assist ance of the artillery, which raked Co- burns line Iengthwise, would have been beaten from the field. Coburn or dered his officers to make stand on a ridge in rear of the station and fight to the last.
 xxY1 kF. S~-f, ~xk sknk4 Forrest saw with his keen soldiers eye that there was not room for his brigade in that narrow, crowded valley and
