In advance OF the show we have about

miles in all directions from the town in
which performances are 10 be given. They
are supplied with admission tickets, to
give farmers in exchange for barn and

them on payday the other half is held
back. in accordance with a contract they
are required to sign until the end of the
season. Thus at the beginning of winter
the men receive a sum of money which
otherwise they might have spent.
Many of these men have been with

What becomes of the circus folks IN

into vaudeville, others go 10 the West

Territorial Auditor Raxter Will Not Be
in the Flames.


Guthrie. O. T.. May 4.-Territorial Aud
itor /. w. Baxter is again between two
fires and this time does not propose TO
be caught in the flames. The Southwest
ern Normal school matter is the cause
of the auditors anxiety, and t. shit
the blame from his shoulders has ap-
pealed to Attorney General Ro5b2rcs for
an opinion as to whether the boar1 ap-
pointed by Ex-Governor Barnes, and
which located the school at WeItherfOrd,
are entitled TO any compensation for SER
vices rendered while acting as such. The
jenkins board. which located the school
az Granite. and whose acts were after
wards declared Illegal were paid for
their services upon the recommendation
Of former Attorney General J. c. Strang.
Since the seventh legislative assembly
settled the question Of the location Of
the school and as work upon the new
building IS now in progress, the mem
bers Of the Barnes appointive board
have flooded the auditors Office with re-
quests that they be paid for their ser
vices. The pressure has become SO great
recently that the request Of the auditor
for an optnion from the attorney general
is the result. The opinion viii not be
handed down for several days but it is
said that should an adverse decision he
rendered the members Of the Barnes

Judge Halner Will close this term of
court Saturday. This has been one Of
the busiest terms of court ever conducted
in this district since the opening of the
Cherokee Strip. Fifteen United States
ca ses were disposed of, about ten United
States bankruptcy cases, fifty territorial
criminal cases and 133 civil cases have all
either been tried, settled or dismissed,
with a few more to follow. If there is a
record in the territory that will beat
this. trot it out and we viii show up
same other records and happenings IN
the Fourth district"
The First district answers this in a
dispatch to the Eagle from there, which
says:
We understand the Perry court was in
session six weeks without desiring or in
tending to in the least detract from the
splendid abilities of the distinguished
Judge of the Perry district. The First
district accepts the challenge and trotS
out the following record, made by Chief
Justice Burford at the term of court
which closed in Lincoln county today.
Court convened on the Sth OF April and
was in session eighteen days. During
that time Judge Burford disposed OF
sixteen bankruptcy cases. three United
States criminal cases, tifty-two terrlto-
rial criminal cases and 163 civil cases;
total. 234, or an average Of thirteen per
day. Five murder cases were tried, re-
sulting in one hung jury, two acquittals
and two convictions. During the term
of court Matthew Fooks shot and killed
Price Stoneking on the sidewalk in front
of the court house and in the presence
of all the court officials. He was ar
rested at once. indicted and arraigned
the next day, and in just one week from
the date of the crime was sentenced TO
the peitentiary for life, and We -'trot
out this for fairly good record. Now
let the Fourth district show up its

FORGED
CHECKS
FLOATING
Checks of the Ch0CtaW Okla
homa and Gulf Forgeries.
THE CHECKS WERE CASHED
Efforts are Being Made to
Capture the Perpetrators.

Shawnee, o. T, May 4-Three forged
checks of the Choctaw Oklahoma & Gulf
railroad, drawn in favor OF ]. A. Skies,
each for s9l.2O. were presented and cashed
by three of the Shawnee banks. This
took place last week and the matter has
been quiet until yesterday. when the in
telligence was received from headquarters
OF the road at Chicago that the checks
We're spurious
One of the checks was cashed by the
First National bank one by the Shaw
nee National bank and one by the Okla
homa National bank
A suspicion concerning the paper arose
in the minds of the bankers here and the
checks were forwarded to Chicago Cor
inspection. kilograms have been received
which settled the fact that the hanks had
been worked by a forger of his confed-
crates
The forgers Were not suspicioned until
the person presenting the checks had got
ten away. Every effort is being made hy
the banks, as well as by the Choctaw
secret service force to locate the criminals
and it is more than likely they will yet
be brought to justice. The bank offieia g
seem to give no satisfactory descriptive
of the m an who presented the checks
when asked for.
On close inspe'SA there was seen to
be slight difference between the genu-
inc check of the railroad and tn forged
document. The latter was printed on
paper of a little darker tint than the gen.
uine, and the signatures appear to be
traced over the genuine; the letter f.
omitted from the spurious check in the
word Island at it's head. and the two
initials of the name signed at the bottom
of the forgeries are connected while on
the genuine checks they are separated.
