A BRUTAL
LUNA'S DEED
Alleged to Have NAL
treated Porto
Rican.

A pitiable object walked into the
Police Station last night. 1t was
Porto Rican covered with blood and
bleeding even then from the ears and
nose. The mans name is Alvado
Ramon, who, up to last evening, had
worked at Aiea plantation.
Ramon worked under Porto Rican
luna. He labored all day yesterday
and the luna wanted him to work last
night. Ramon demurred whereupon
the luna is alleged to have knocked him
down, jumped on him and kicked him
brutally in the face, stomach and back.
After beating the man almost into in
sensibility the luna left his victim.
The latter aroused himself and at 9
o'clock quit the plantation and walked
all the way into town.
One eye had been kicked and blood
still oozed from Ramon's ears when he
presented himself at the station. He
is black and blue all over his body
and it is feared he has suffered internal
injuries. He was sent to the hospital
for treatment.

CHARLES DOLE,
THE ATHLETE

The San Francisco Examiner, refer
ring to Charles Dole, who met with an
accident last week Saturday, says:
Dole is considered the best athlete on
the islands and probably has more
brilliant record as man of muscle
than any member of the wonderful
Dole family of athletes of which he is
a member. He was an all-round man
and never entered game requiring
skill, endurance and strength without
becoming it's master
AT Stanford University he won un-
usual fame and is there considered the
greatest athlete ever entered in an in
tercollegiate meet. He was a football
man and a track man. Unaided and
alone he went into track meet for the
Western. intercollegiate championship
at Chicago in 1897 and won for STAN
ford a fourth place. In New York he
won for himself the position of third
all-round athlete of the United States.
When a freshman at college Dole
captained his class team and played
fullback position. He was on the
Varsity for four years and played a
hard, consistent and oftentimes bril-
liant game of football. But it was as
a track man that Dole was especially
well known. He captained the college
team in his junior year and through
out his college career took places in
several events in every intercollegiate
field day. His record in the pole vault
was II feet; high jump, feet 9's
inches; broad jump, q feet "a inches;
100-yard dash, 10 1-5 seconds; 220-yard
dash, % 1-5 seconds: 120-yard hurdles,
Is AS seconds; 220-yard hurdles, 26 20
seconds: 16-pound hammer-throw, lib
feet; 16-pound shot-put, 3S feet.
Dole has always been an enthusiast
in all kinds Of sports, and while here
has taken particular interest in polo
and association football. He is one of
the best players who has ever mounted
a pony in the polo games here. He is
a member of the local team which has
completed arrangements for a visit to
California next spring.

free delivery mail in oklahoma is being
rapidly extended is attested by the re-
cent appointment of eighteen new car
riers in the territory under the super
vision of the Guthrie Postoffice. The
people in the county are now beginning
to realize how much it means to have
their mail delivered at their homes daily
and there is a general demand for rural

government is granting these requests
and rural routes are being Instituted in
an Of, the more popuious districts.
Two of the rural delivery routes that
have recently been provided for and will
be established next week, run out of
Guthrie and are known a route six,
which extends in outherly direction
about ten miles and route seven, which
passes through the country southwest
Of Guthrie. Yesterday Postmaster Nc
Coz. received a letter of notification from
the postoffice department of the appoint
ment of the carriers for the new routes.

PRICE OF COTTON.
The Staple Brings Good Figures in
Shawnee Market

Shawnee. O. T.. Oct. 23-The prices Of
cstton in the bale have reached the high
est mark since the opening day of the
present season, says the News. On the
first day they ranged about the 10 cent
mark, but since that time. with one ex-
ception. they have been below cents
per popnd. They reached. and in one
or two instances where the cotton was
of extra fine quality. passed the 9H-cent
mark
Buyers this morning opened the mar
ket generally at $40 per hundred. but
within an hour had jumped the price TO
s925 per hundred and it held there staedy.
Load after load of the staple arrived
from the surrounding country and was
disposed Of to the buyers in Shawnee.
Several parties report as high prices as
ss.S5 for first grade cotton.
In the seed. the price jumped up to
Sc per hundred this morning and stayed
there all day. 1t appears from expert
buyers here. that the rise in prices is
not spasmodic but may be expected TO en-
dure for several days and probably the
price viii not so much lower at any time
during the season.
The news of the rise in price has
reached the country flor miles around
this city and loads Of ficecy stuff have
arrived from distant points. The mar
ket is crowded with 1t. but the buyers
are cheerfuIly taking all that comes. not

The white population Of the Indiaa ter

become victims Of unscrupuIous whites
