the floods have been making them trouble
with too much regularity on the low lands
close TO the river. All but about fifteen
of the Russian families have left the river

manner 10 escape the annual overflow. In
the new district fifty or sixty families
have built homes ranging in price from
$500 to $500. They thought they were Sc

says that many of them are very much
discouraged over the misfortunes which
have befallen them.
The church itself is doing a great deal
toward caring for the wants of its mem

rest. the second floor, Father Henry's

Of the officers of the law that Nelson has

On Friday evening Sheriff Pruitt went
to Nowata and there met Thad McGinBis,
a deputy United States marshal. The two
drove to Nelson's home Saturday morn
ing and although they made "A careful
search. found nothing of the wanted man.
Mrs. Nelson told the sheriff that she sup
posed that her husband was in indie
pendence, that he left home the Satur-
day night before for Edna and intended
to go on to independence from there or
else return home; and as he hadn't re-

Mississippi Crops.

If the reports Of reliable mer-
chants and farmers who have the
opportunity to see the crops are to
be taken as an evidence of their
condition the present cotton crop in
Mississippi cannot be called an ay-
erage crop. In some portions of
the State the crop is reported to be
in good condition and growing rap
idly, but it is agreed by all who are
in position to know that the crop is
late. In some places it is later than
in other places, but in no place is it
less than two to three weeks late.
Reports from correspondents in
different points in Mississippi have
been received during the past week,
showing the condition Of the crop.
They all agree that the crop is late.
Some Of them say that it is small
and grassy, and one correspondent
says that it is the poorest crop he
has ever seen. The reports from
the corn crop are very encouraging,
some reporting that the crop is not
only the largest ever planted, but is
in the best condition. Judging
from the reports corf will be for
sale from many sections in Missis-
sippi.

convict chase was Philip Singer. q
resident of this district. He is hard

an order~to halt, was fatally shot by

convicts not believed TO be the sarnc

number of shots were exchanged, but
