DOG SHOWED SENSE.
How a Mig Newfoundland Got RId OF
Little Bun Terrier That
Annoyed Him.

A little crowd Of seedy men. says
the New York Tribune, were gath
cred the other night about one Of the
ugly furnaces that defaced City Hall
park, while the contractors were COW
ering the plaza with asphaltum. They
were warming their bodies in the
tarry smoke that steamed out Of it,
and had deserted their seats under
the trees where they had slept most
Of the summer.
II saw queer thing happen here
yesterday" said one of them. "a
big Newfoundland dog, with muzzle
on him, was following a boy along
Mail street, when little bull-terrier
made a dash for him and got death
grip on one Of the big fellows ears.
1t was all done so quickly that the
Newfoundland dog was being well
chewed before he knew what struck
him. He gave a howl and a snap
at the little brute. but his muzzle
would not allow him to open his
jaws, and the bull-terrier chewed
away like mad. All he could do was
TO turn tail and run, but the terrier
did not lose his grip, and went along,
too. They dashed through the crowd.
passed the fountain, and out on the
plaza here. where the big fellow
nearly ran over a pail Of smoking hot
tar that was standing for moment
by the side Of workman, who had
stopped to light his pipe.
"Quick as fash the big dog
stopped, and threw his head as high
in the air as he could This dragged
the little terrier well off his feet. and
nearly tore the ear from the head Of
the Newfoundland, but when the lit
tie brute came down again, he lit
plump in the pail Of burning tar. He
let go quick enough then you bet,
and as the big fellow trotted off.
shaking his head I felt like giving
him a cheer for his smartness."

MYSTERY IN THE DEATH

Murder al the Time.

Guthrie. o. T., Aug. 19.-Acting Cover
nor William Grimes today issued a re-
QUESTION on Governor W. J. Bailey Of
Kansas for the return of Michael Robi.
deaux, wanted in Lincoln county for the
murder of the late Chief Tohee Of the
Iowa Indian tribe. Robideaux was a
son-in-law of Chief Tohee The two men
had quarrel in which the younger man
struck the old chief over the head with
garden hoe, the blow resulting in his
death.
Sheriff Tilghman left here this efter-
noon for Hiawatha. where Robideaux is
In custody. The alleged murderer comes
from prominent family. many of the
RobideauX being well known around
--ansas City and ST. Joseph. Mo.
There was considerable mystery sur
rounding the death of old Chief Tohee.

HE USED kNUCKLES.
Two Men Have Stout Argument
Over Question.

Hobart, o. T., Aug. 19.-T. 8. Hine. a
prominent real estate man of Roosevelt
and G.. w. Stain, a farmer living near
that town. had an alteration yesterday
over an opinion which the former held on
the latter's land. Words brought to
blows. stains used a pair of brass knucks,
and knocked out five of Hines teeth and
lacerated and bruised his lips and face.
Hine dealt his antagonist a severe blow
over the head with a beer bottle. Finally
friends interviewed and put stop to the
difficulty
Hine swore out a complaint against
Stains. charging him with assault with
intent to kill So far no arrest has been
made. However, it will be done this
evening.
G.. w. Hams was arrested yesterday
on a charge of assault with brass knucks
with intent to kill. The defendant was
brought to town and placed under 500
bond. which he gave. for his appearance
here next Tuesday, when the preliminary
examination will be held.
Stain denies most emphatically that he
used brass knuckles or any other weapon
save his fist, which he proposes to offer
in evidence. His knuckles are badly
bruised and lacerated. the result, he says
of coming in contact with Hines teeth.

ARRESTED A TRAVELLER.
Afterlvard Wanted to Release Him for
a Consideration.

FL Reno, O. T, Aug. 19.-The Democrat
says that c. w. Shean was at the Choc-
taw depot yesterday afternoon and step
ping up to a pilgrim who was meander-
ing, he said that he was an officer from
Kansas and proceeded to arrest the trav-
eler for the crime of murder, who in
sisted that ne was no murderer and that
in his heart there was no malicious
iesire for the blood of his fellow men.
The pretended Kansas official however
placed him under arrest and the two
started up town. After proceeding a
block toward the county jail the officer
asked his prisoner if he had any money
TO pay fine and the prisoner began
TO wonder how he could be fined for the
crime Of murder. Just about this time
they met friend of the prisoner, and
the erstwhile murderer said TO his friend
I'm arrested for murder You know
haven't killed anybody
Pretty soon Policeman Bannister ap-
peared upon the csene, and it was the
pretended officers time to mediate.
These fellows who come to Oklahoma
to do the bad man act are sure to run
against something. because there are not
many tender-feet in this neck of the
woods.

FIELDS DECLINES 1T.
Prefers to Remain at the Saltwater
Station

Saltwater Aug 19.-Director John
Fields received a telegram a few days
ago offering him the dictatorship of the
Texas Experiment station at a much
larger salary than he is receiving here.
The board of regents Immediately took
the matter in hand and offered such in
ducements as prevailed upon Director
Fileds to remain in Oklahoma, though
still at a considerable sacrifice. The
progress of the experiment station under
Director Fields during the first four years
has been remarkable, both in work ac-
complished and in it's standing and in
fiuence among the people There are
now only five other stations in the United
States whose publications reach a greater
number of people, and no other one whose
bulletins reach a greater portion of the
farmers within its jurisdiction.

CASE is FILED.
The Matter Is Somewhat Complicated
az Present


Guthrie, O. r, Aug. 19.-Tne cose of
Albert T. Newell and Frank NJ. Ross vs..
the Long-Ben Lumber company of Ms
souri, was fled in the Oklahoma supreme
court today, having been appealed from
Garfield county. The plaintiffs ask that
the Judgment against them be dismissed.
The case is rather complicated, being
the outgrowth Of q former suit. IN
March, 1887 the lumber company secured
& judgment against Ransome Payne fore
closing mortgage on Enid property,
which was sold at sherins sale and Sc
cured by the company. Afterward the
property was secured by the NJ. Z. church
south It is alleged that Newell and
Ross negotiated with the company for
the property. claiming that they could
settle with the church people and also
secure a quit claim decd from Payne.
The two men claimed TO have secured
dtle to The property, but about this time
lne church brought action to retain the
property. and when the case reached the
supreme court the church secured a de-
cision in its favor Newell and Ross
alleged that the lumber company did not
live up to its contract and brought ac-
tion in the Garfield county district court
asking for Si.ooo damages and costs of
the action To he taxed against the com
pany. in this case the lumber company
came. out victorious and Newell and Ross
appealed to the hisher court.

SERIOUS
SHOOTING
AFfRAY
At KieI a Saloon Row Causes
Tragedy.
THREE MEN ARE HURT
Man Who Fired the Revolver
Under Arrest.
THREE MEN ARE HURT

Kingfisher, o. T, Aug. ia very
serious shooting affray took place in the
western part of this county at Kiel late
Yesterday evening The participants are
all well known in this county. Those
who were shot are L. S. Callison, shot
through the abdomen; VIM. Canison,
shot through the hand and B. NJ P
Jordan. shot in the leg. Irv Mcdowell
is the name of the man who it is said did
the shooting. The alteration took place
in a saloon, and the reports seem to
vary as to how it was brought about,
some claiming that L. S. Callison was
the aggressor and that Mcdowell shot
in self defense, and it seems that one
shot injured all the parties. At this
time L. S. Callison is in a critical con-
dition and not expected to live more than
a day or two. Mcdowell was brought to
Kingfsher by Constable Stimmel and
turned over to Sheriff Love and is now
retained in his custody. No complaint
has yet been made in the case.
