About Rev. Anna Shaw

The late Frances Willard was
an ardent believer in equal suf-
frage, and a personal friend of
Rev. Anna Shaw, President OF
the National American Woman
Suffrage Association. Several
years before her death Miss Viii
lard wrote of Miss Shaw:
Rev. Anna Howard Shaw, of
Philadelphia. is one of the ablest
speakers on the platform, either
among men or women. She has
a well trained mind, quenchless
enthusiasm, and that rarest Of
all qualities pluck. Her history
proves all this. No woman could
have wrenched education and
success from more difficult con
ditions. America does not con
tain a more loyal and devoted ad
herent Of woman's cause. A
graduate OF Boston University,
in both medicine and theology,
DR.. Shaw brings rare qualities
TO her work. Her lecture, en-
titled THE Fate Of Republics, "
is one of the finest / have ever
heard, both in matter and de-
livery. Audiences will be con
ciliated by her cultured manner,
enlivened by her wit, and cap
tured by her logic.

next morning when he vent to the

Deed To Lands
Report Circulated that Indian
Allotees Will Receive PATIENTS

According to a report received
in this city Indian allotees will
soon receive patents to the lands,
which they have filed upon and for
which certificates have been issued.
For several months these deeds,
which require the signature of the
governors of the Chickasaw and
Choctaw nations have been held
up. It is said that the tribal off
cials strongly objected to the form
of the deed or rather that portion
which required the approval of the
Secretary of the Interior and for
this reason the governors would
not sign patents. 1t has always
been contended since the deeds
were made out of the Dawes COM
mission that the government had
nothing to do with the approval Of
the deeds. That this power was
surely invested in the tribal au
thorities, It's hoped by the busi-
ness interests that the patents will
soon be signed and turned over to
the allotees of the land. -Ardmore-

WILL ENGLAND ACT
LnqliSh and German Steam
erS tired Upon

London, July 25.--While no protest has
yet been made against the action of the
Russian volunteer fleet steamer Smolensk
In firing two shells over the British
steamer Ardova, If the official report of
the British government bears out the
press dispatches, a strong protest will
probably be entered against the Smolensk
endangering the lives of the Ardova
passengers by the irregular proceedings
of the captain of the Smolensk custom
requiring that when vessel at sea re-
fuses TO obey the signal of a warship
to stop to follow it up with a solid shot

The captain of the Smolensk, it is add
I'd, might be liable to a severe penalty
for his act and also for the transfer of
the Ardovas crew on board the Snolensk
But these collateral questions will be the
subject of mutual negotiations when
Great Britain presents her bill for dam
ages. The main thing is that so far as
the volunteer fleet steamers are concern
ed, the acute stage of the diplomatic
crisis has passed.

SHERIFF LAMB DOES
SOME BUSINESS
Unearths Stolen Property
and Captures Two of
the thieves

Sheriff Lamb has on exhibition in his
shoes, grading from the latest style of
patent feathers to a miners high-top
laced canvas boot.
1t is not the sheriffs intention CT go
ing into business, nor is his collection the
result of an attachment.
He was notified Saturday that car,
nemucca yard. had been broken into and
a lot or valuable goods stolen. The theft
was not discovered until the car reached
LoveIock.
BY investigation the sheriff learned that
the robbery took place last Friday night.
Sheriff Lamb and Deputy Muller pro-
ceeded at once to investigate the affair,
and thsy were soon hot on the trail.
Proceeding to the place where the car
stood they found tracks which led the.-.
back of Germans place. Here they found
several boxes that had been broken into.
but not trace of the stolen goods.
Further investigation led them to the
sand hills. back of Chinatown and the
stockyards.
After digging about several hours
their work was rewarded by unearthing
five gunnysacks packed with shoes and
boots.
The sacks were buried In different
places.
Their next move was to find the thieves

disposed of six and one-half dozen pairs
of shoes for $3.50.
The shoes were taken possession of and
the officers repaired down town to look
for their suspects.
The colored man was located Sunday

In Jail.
The next move on the part of the sher-
III and his deputy was TO bring the white
man before the Italians who had pur-
chased the shoes. The moment they east
their eyes upon him they declared he was
the man, and he was taken back 10 iail
One thing that is puzzling the officers
Is the sudden disappearance of their
money. When searched at the Jail only
81 was found upon their persons, when
but few hours before the last man ar
rested appeared TO have plenty of funds
