HUNDREDS HOMELESS
COMES WITHOUT WARNING WHILE
PEOPLE SLEEP.
HEAVY DAM AGE DONE
Property Damage In the Town Put at
100000, which May be Added
To-High Water In Kansas.

Enid, Ok May 24-Hundreds OF
persons were rendered homeless and
property damaged to the extent Of
So 0,000 in the Enid bottoms by a
cloudbuTst that struck west of this
city at midnight last night. The
aggregate damage will doubtless be
raised much higher by losses sustain
ed between Enid and the seat OF the
storm. At u O'Clock a bank Of
water three feet high and 200 feet
wide swept down through the bot
toms, carrying houses and every
thing before 1t. 1t came upon Enid
without warning, while most Of its
citizens were asleep. Within a few
minutes hundred houses were part
ly or completely submerged. Rescu-
ers went to work immediately and all
last night lahored industriously saw
ing persons from perilous positions
AID aiding those driven from their
homes. Today 1t was found that
several hundred were homeless.
Many pltable scenes were witnessed
as the people stood around waiting
( the water to subside. Many had
lost everything they possessed. The
citizens are busily engaged relieving
the distress but the means at hand
are inadequate. The ralnf.lil the
past ten days has been the heaviest
in the history Of Oklahoma and in
dications are that more will follow.
Reports OF the losses Ia the country
west Of Enid are neagre, but it is
believed that heavy damage was
done.

considerable trouble locating one Of

out Of the barn several days ago by

passed as his wife. They stopped at
The Central hotel, the man register
ing as "Mr. O. b. Thompson, st.

his companion. The landlord failed
to scrutinlze tie register carefully
and supposed the man had register
ed for himself and wife until the
following day The stranger stayed
about the hotel all day, evidently
not caring to sh wv himself In public,
which action aroused the suspicion
Of the landlord, who started to in

Lad ired a livery rig and started

from It's loose bed and precipltated

death before he reached the bottom.

Telephone Girls DO Out.

Tecumseh, Neb, May 20.-Th,
four central girls in the employ Of
the Nebraska Telephone company at
this point are striking. They want
more pay or less hours, The girls say
they have been working nine hours
per day each for sixteen dollars per
month. They demand of the9e.com-
pany that the hours either be cut
down to seven, or that they be in.
creased to twenty dollars per month.
They claim they gave the company
notice Of their demands some ten
days ago. and thI eatened to quit last
Friday night, The local manager
prevailed upon them to remain at
work, which they did until o'clock
yesterday afternoon. AT that time
those at the switchboard left the
room and the others refused to go
to work. Manager l.. A. Denny OF
the local station says there has been
a misunderstanding between the
girls and the company. He seems to
think the girls do not intend to work
In any event. Auditor Mussleman
came down from Lincoln yesterday
and intended to settle the matter,
but without success. The company
says 1t will fill the places made
vacant by the striking girls at once,
In fact two operators from out Of
town arrived this afternoon and it
Is said they are now at work.

Lees Refusal to Disper.e.

General IL. L. Alexander relates In
the Century these interesting words
Of General Lee, just before the surren-
der. General Alexander having pro-
posed that the Confederate soldiers be
authorized to dispense, and report to
General Johnston or to the Governors
of the States, General Lee replied:
Suppose l were to adopt your sug-
gestion, how many do you suppose
would get away?"
replied: Il think two-thirds Of us
could get away. We should be like
rabbits and cartridges in the bushes,
and they could not scatter like that
to catch u.s."
"Well" he said, 81 have less than
sixteen thousand infantry with arms
In their hands. Even If two-thirds Of
these got away 1t would be too small
force to accomplish any useful re-
suit, either with Johnston or with the
Governors of the States. But few
would go to Johnston, for their homes
have been overrun by the enemy, and
the men will want to go first and look
after their families. AS to any help
| from Europe, / have never believed in
it, l appreciate that the surrender of
this army is, indeed, the end of the
| Confederacy. But that result Is now
inevitable and must be faced. And as
| Christian men, we have no right to
choose a course from pride or personal
feelings. We have simply to see what
we can do best for our country and
people. Now, If l would adopt your
suggestion and order this army to dis,
perse, the men, going homeward would
be under no control, would be without
food They are already demoralized
by four years of war, and would sup
ply their wants by violence and plum
der. They would soon become little
better than bands of robbers. A state
of society would result throughout the
South, from which it would require
years to recover. The enemy's cavalry
too, would pursue to catch at least
general officers. and would harasS anC
deN astate sections that otherwise they
will never visit. Moreover" he said
las to myself, / am too old to go tC
bushwhacking, and even If it were
right to order the army to dispense
the only course to pursue would be tC
surrender myself to General Grant
But" he added, 81 can tell you fol
your comfort that Grant will not de
mand an unconditional surrender.
He will give us honorable and liberia
terms, simply requiring us not to taxi
up arms again until exchanged" II,
then went on to tell me that he was il
correspondence with Grant, and eX
pected to meet him in our rear at II
a. M, when he would accept the term
that had been indicated.

INDIAN COURT OF JUSTICE
FULL BLooDs WHOSE DECISIONS Arb
SELDOM CUSHIONED.

Deadwood, S. D., May 23.-Judge
John H. Burns, who recently visited
Pine Ridge Indian agency, says Ma
jor John h. Brennan, the agent, has
organized court among the Indi ans
whose practice is decidedly unique.
The court is composed Of four full
blood Indians, none of whom can
speak the English language, but they
deport themselves with exceeding
dignity. They all wear black broad
cloth and clerical Prince Albert
coats on all occasions. Their author
ity seems almost unlimited, and In
the distribution OF the property OF a
decendent they act without regard
for the white mans right Of dissent,
depending altogether on their ma
tive sense Of right and justice which
is rarely br ught into question.
The chief Justice is Thunder Bear,
and the associate justices are Fast
Horse, Standing Bear and Iron Glow.
While Judge Burns was at the agency
he attended sitting OF the court on
a very important case, and he says
the judges seemed greatly impressed
with the solemnity OF their duties
The case was against Sam Black
Wolf, seventy-three years old,
charged with the dissertation of the
grave of Louisa Pretty Cloud a young
woman for whose hand he had for
merely striven. The young woman
had refused to marry the old man
and shortly afterwards had married
another man. Her death occurred a
little while after her marriage, and
she was buried, according TO Indian
custom, In solitary grave, on a hill
top. A few days after her burial 1t
was found that the body had been
exhumed and stripped Of all its cloth
Ing. Part Of her burial robe mad
been cape decorated with elks teeth
worth several hundred dollars. This,
while somewhat damaged had not
been taken away from the grave, so
1t was concluded that robbery had
not been the motive. Black Wolf
bad been seen at cabin near the
grave about the time the body was
taken up, and had borrowed an axe,
without helve, putting in the
handle himself. This was found a,
the grave, and these with other cir
cumstances indicated that he was
the culprit.
After hearing all the evidence the
judges sentenced the old man to six
months in the guard house at the
agency, a severe enough penalty
under the circumstances, owing t.
the condition Of the guard house.
Judge Burns says when the justice,
Of the court become bothered over a
law question they refer It to tn,
Little Father" meaning the agent
