sister, kindly. "a revised copy means
that certain changes have been made
in the Bible which were considered
necessary to a better understanding
of the text. Now, you had better
run off to bed-there's a good boy.'
The young man could scarcely con-

"Wel, if that's what it is" said
Bobby, ''our family Bible is revised,

Near the little town of Denmark,
Tenn, Eliza Williamson, an aged me-
gress, was struck upon the head by
a negIo man with murderous intent,
he using fence rail as a weapon. The
woman fell as if shot through the
heart, and with few gasps apparent

The body, says the New York World,
was carried to her house, near by, and
was prepared for burial the next day.
Gradually it grew cold and rigid, and
the closest examination failed to dis
cover any indications of life. The
heart was still, the eyes were set, and

asked him why he did it, and he re.

upon the sable face the ashen hue of
leath had fallen.
All OF Sunday afternoon and night
watchers sat beside the bier. When
he time appointed for the burial came
I mighty rain set in that lasted all of
hat day and far into the night, max
.ng it impossible for the burial to take
place, and another long night of watch
ng came on Monday night. 1t was
then intended to bury the body early
Tuesday morning and preparations
we're made for the event.
Just before the hour arrived the
watchers were surprised to see the
supposed corpse rise up in the coffin,
and the eyes open Slowly and looked
wo.deringly upon the surroundings.
The woman did not appear in the
least alarmed or astOnished, but calm
iy asked for drink of water, which
some one in the assembly less fright
ened than the rest gave to her. Then
she lay quietly back in the coffin and
fell into a natural sleep, her respira-
tion and circulation gradually return
ing to their normal condition.
A physician was summoned, and
after carefully examining the patient
after she had been removed from the
coffin, declared that her chances for
final recovery were reasonably good.
She had at most sustained only a skull
fracture.
In the meantime the assailant of the
woman had been placed in jail on a
charge of deliberate murder, and
against him had already grown d
strong sentiment among the negroes
where the supposed murder had oc-
.urred. WE,n informed of the happy

srAR ROUTE POSTAL FRAUDS.
Pestoftice inspector stirs up Bad Mess
in indian Territory.

Muskogee, : T., July SO.-There is
now being unearthed in Indian terri.
tory one Of the biggest star route pos.
tai frauds that has been exposed in
long time c. e. McGinnis. assistant
to the cecond assistant postmaster
general, has been in the territory for
several weeks and left this city for
Washington last night.
It has since been learned from the
very best authorities that he will cause
stir in postal circles when he
makes sis report It will involve two
OF three companies in MissoG-i and
two national banks in the same state
and more than 100 postal routes here.
There has been a company there
which has taken over 100 mail con-
tracts in Indian territory. all Of which
have been sublet contrary to law. the
Missouri company getting IS per
cent Of the profits and the ..artieb
with whom they deal there getting rs.
It is believed that warran 8 will ne
issued for more than twenty persons
In Indian territory within ten days
and there will be several f0r persons
T.. Mi Souri, some Of whom have been
mixed up in a similar affair before.
Copies Of the contracts between
the Missouri firm and the suhcontrac-
tors have been found, and Hre in the
possession OF the inspectors. The
direct result Of the discovery Of fraud
will be the canceling Of the old con
tract covering the routes from Mus
kogee to Lee: Muskogee to Ball Hill;
Lee to Stone Bluff; Wagner to Cho-
ska; Noweta to Choska; thirteen
routes running out Of Checotah and
thirty-five routes in the Chickasha
nation
McGinnis says there are more than
100 OF these contracts, and in some
of them the persons interested have
made a profit of Size per month New
contracts are to be advertised for at
once.
It took the inspector thirteen
weeks to locate the man who was sup
posed to have the contracts running
out of Ada in the Chickasha nation
and when he found him he found a
17-year-old boy This boy is said tc
have been recommended by a national
bank in Missouri and was supposed
TO live in Missouri. He had nevel
been out of the Indian territory.
McGinnis caused big stir here
He did not give up the names Of an
of the persons connected with th'
frauds. but It has since been learned
that his reports will recommend th'
removal of several postmasters in th'
smaller offices and one in one Of the
largest offices in the territory. There
win also be involved some Of thu
most prominent citizens in Indian ter
r ritory and the national banks whicl
cashed the warrants for the subcon

DETECTIVE WORK AT
DOS De COPAS RANCH.
Heads of Stolen Stock Found Bur
led in the Field-Oficers Make
Arrest.

To THE HERALD:
Yescas, Cameron Co., March Is.
The officers have continued hard
at work investigating the discov-
cries at the Dos de Copas ranch,
where several goat skins were found
buried last Tuesday, as reported in
my last letter to THE HERALD. They
have since found buried in the field
of which Hilario Salazar is tenant,
with Secundino Balderamos in
charge of same, one head of a COW,
and several heads of calves, goats
and hogs, evidently killed at various
times. Deputies Sheriffs Telesforo
Cara and Sostenes Saldaha, who
were at work on the case, arrested
Hilario Salazar and took him to
town.
A few days ago, hide was found
buried at this ranch, but the owner
could not be discovered by the
brand.
A young bull belonging to Mrs.
H. Verber was found dead a mile
below the Yescas, caused by NAL
treatment by some malicious per-
son.
Considerable rascality of this
sort has occurred in this vicinity,
and the credit for it wrongfully at
tributed to the Yescas people, as
outsiders were the guilty parties.
We have had three days of rain
in succession. The country looks
beautiful now, but it will look more
beautiful when the harvest time
comes. This is the lower Rio Grande.
