Geronimo Gets Religious

AUSTIN, Tex, July 22.-Deputy
Sheriff F. C. Carter. of Lawton, Okla,
who was here today, says that Ger
onimo. the notorious chief of the
Apache Indians, who led General Miles
and the United States troops long and
desperate chases throughout Arizona
several years ago. has become con-
vert to religion at Fort Sill. and that
he has united with the Methodist
church.
Geronimo is an enthusiastic wor-
shipper and is said to have made pub
lie confession of his many bloody
deeds committed when he and his
tribe were on the warDath. He has
issued a proclamation to his people
urging them to give up dancing and
other worldly amusements and repent
of their sins. Geronimo's change oi
heart has caused a sensation among
the Indians of Oklahoma and Indian
Territory.

SAMORA MAY RECOVER
Being Treated According to
Latest Scientific Methods

Ambrosia Samora, the typhoid fever
patient at the Winnemucca hospital,
is in much better condition today than
he has been at any time since he was
taken to the sanitarium, and late this
afternoon DR.. Ciroux stated that he
now has at least an equal chance for
recovery. If he does get well, he may
be thankful that Winnemucca has ad
vanced sufficiently far in its growth
to possess a modern, thoroughly
equipped hospital, conducted in ac-
cordance with the most advanced
ideas known to medical science. fol-
ii is no exaggeration to say that he
would have succumbed to the disease
mad it not been for the treatment
given him by Miss Laveaga and his
physician, aided by the modern ap-
paratus with which the sanitarium is
supplied.
Mr.. Samora's case has been a very
interesting one from a physician 5

fair way to recove~y from one CT

storms, resulting in heavy losses in
both cattle and sheep, which were
weakened by the continued drouth.
There was great scurrying about for

WASHINGTON, july AA.-OhiS o'
Washington continues to be some%
what mvstified b.. the interview which
Count Cassini, the Russian Embas-
sador, gave in Paris and which was
published yesterday.
Cent Cassini said that at his in
terview with Secreta~- Of State Hay.
when the latter called uDon bin Sun
dav. June 2S. they only CASUALLY men
toned the matter of open ports ir
Manchuria and that the cal was bit
az Informal cne. Washington has
been led to believe that the call o!
Secretary Hay, which was ve~"v nm
usual in view of the fact that thf
Secretary of State only on one prev
icus occasion lad called on an En-
bassador, was in the nature cf an off
cial call.
The impression, too. was given out
and that impression was not discour-
aged by Count Cassini. that the Man
churian question had been discussed
and that when Secretary Hav deuart-
ed little was left to be done exceptinS
the designation Of the ports which
should be opened.
There are signs that there may
again be some delay in completing the
triumph of Secretary Hay in getting
these open ports. Japan seems to
have been left complete out of the
matter and cables report that the Jap
anese government is seeking a new
ARRANGEMENT with Great Britain by
which these two governments sha'l
make a demand ON Russia, not FOR
two, but for five ports.
