the DOCTOR
SENT MR.. HAYLAND TO COLO.

Cay. Nj. liz. Was Saved by vinoI,

Says His Life Was Saved by vinoI
People of Brattleboro will be In
terested In the recovery of Mr.. Hay
land. as so many of our friends ar,
continually being sent TO one health
resort or another as the only mean;
Of recovery.
In writing Of his cure from Den.
yer, Colo, Mr. Hayland says: II be-
lieve that Vinol, the new cod liver
oil preparation, has saved my life
and l wish to mention my case. as
1t may be OF value TO others SINH
larly affected.
Il was sent to Colorado with what
my doctor said would develop into
tuberculosis, and was so weak I was
unable to work at my profession.
Since taking Vinol my appetite has
returned, l sleep well, feel very
much stronger and am sure I shall
soon be restored to perfect health.
cannot recommend Vinol too strong
ly, as 1t has done so much for me
when all other medicines had failed"
Our well known druggist, Mr..
George f.. Greene, says THE reason
Vinol aecomplishes such remarkable
results when all other tonics and
emulsions Of cod liver oil fail Is be-
caues II contains in a concentrated
ments of cod liver oil, actually TAX
en- from fresh Gods livers. but with
out oil or grease, and 1t does not up
set the weakest stomach"
Mr.. Greene also freely offers to re-
turn money paid him for Vinol in
every case where 1t fails to cure
chronic coughs, colds, bronchial
troubles incipient consumption, to
make rich, red blood, increase the
appetite, cure stomach troubles, give
strength and renewed vitality to the |
aged, build up the run down, tired |
and debilitated, and make the weak |
strong.
Surely any person in Brattleboro
who is in need of such remedy
should try Vinol, as it is a simple
with remarkable cura-
tive powers and won't cost you
cent if it does you no good. George

new OWNERS
FOR The KATY
Rockefeller Said to Have Re-
leased Control Of the
Road to American
Syndicate.

A rumor has gained some currency
in railroad circles Of New York that
the 'Katy" has passed from the con-
troll of the Rockfefellers. Wall street
has it that syndicate of American
bankers, headed by II. J. De Moyens,
has purchased the control from the
Rockefeller interests.
According to the Wall street story
the katy has never paid divi-
dend to Rockefeller, and he has
grown weary of holding it. The coun-
try through which the ''Katy" passes
has shown wonderful growth, how
ever, within the last year, and the
bankers evidently expect the road to
be greatly benefited by the rapid
progress Of the southwest.

TRAVELLED AS
C. A. DAVIDSON
Popular Clerk Lost Wallet and
Passes Negro ImpersOn-
ated Him on Train.

One day last week Clerk Davidson
and L. w. Marks drove into the
country with Elwood Lett occupying
the back seat in the carriage. The
latter is a negro and was to point out
to the first named gentlemen a GER
tain corner post.
Mr.. Davidson carried his wallet IN
the hip pocket Of his trousers and,
while riding, it kept working partially
out and was as often replaced. When
they reached the post, Davidson and
Marks left the buggy to walk short
distance to view the land. Upon their
return to town the pocketbook was
missing and Lett, who had remained
in the buggy, was accused of having
1t. Later it was reported among the
lower strata Of darktOwn society that
a pocketbook with some coin, few
private papers and annual passes on
good many railroads had been found,
and that a good chunk Of coin was ex-
pected as reward.
Yesterday Judge Stanfield, Mr..
Davidson and Captain White put Lett
through the "third degree" in the
sweating process, but the negro stood
pat on his first assertion that he had
no knowledge Of the missing wallet
and the officers we're compelled to give
him his liberty.
II has since been learned that some
colored man travelled on the Katy road
to Muskogee and back on an annual
pass made out to Charles A. David
son" the ticket puncher evidently be-
ing color blind for the trip.
All the passes have now been can
celled and they are of no value to any
person other than Mr.. Davidson, who
is naturally yerysore over his loss and
chagrined to think how easily "a
gemman Of COLOR impersonated him.

WILL CARE FOR
UNFORTUNATES
indian Territory Insane can
now be ssnt to Oklahoma
Sanitarium al Norman
for Treatment.

The Indian Inspector has been noti-
fed that the appropriation which was
made last winter by congress for the
care Of the insane in Indian Territory
available and is intended to care
for white patients as well as Indians.
The appropriation is s25, 900 and is to
be used at the discretion Of the secre-
tary OF the Interior.
There will be two classes of patients
Indians and whites. The former
will be under the supervision Of the
Indian agent. From this fund the
agent is authorized to draw money
for the purpose OF transporting the
patients to the Indian asylum at Can
ton, South Dakota, which is for In
dams only. There is another fund
for the support Of this institution and
I the agent will have to draw on the
$4,000 appropriation only for the care
OF the patient while in transportation
and for custodians to take him to
Canton.
! The white class will be under the
supervision Of the Indian inspector
He is authorized to draw on this fund
= for the support and maintenance Of
any white person who is insane and
makes application to be cared for,
submitting proofs that viii pass mus
ter at the department Offices There
is no asylum for whites in Indian
Territory and the inspector will have
to make contract with some asylum
management to take care Of the ter
1itory patients. This has not yet
been done. 1t IS likely that contract
win be closed with the asylum at
> Norman, Okla This is private in
sHtitution and Oklahoma's insane are
taken care OF There on contracts.
During the last session Of congress
for the first time the government has
ever recognized the white population
or Indian Territory. At that session
sl00,0 Incorporated TO give white
children schools and s25, 900 for care OF
the insane. Until this time there has
been no provision whatever for insane
persons unless they became violent as
to endanger the public safety, when
they were arrested and placed in jail

Those cracks who form the cham

way over rivals before the traps. A
gun club is now being organized in
Vinita and the members are anxious
to prove to the country that we have

places, and they are anxious to contest
any team for "money, marbles or

DELAWARE POWWOw.
Agent.ShoenfsIt Presides at ImpOr-
tant Council Of Tribe at Dewey.


Col. J. Blair Shoenfelt, agent Of
Union Agency, at Muskogee, presided
over the Delaware council held 1T
Dewey on Tuesday Of this week. The
Delaware tribe was represented by its
leading men and a number Of att0r-
neys and capitalists from Washington
and elsewhere were there. Ex-Sen-
ator ]. K. Jones, Of Arkansas, was
on hand with a claim for attorneys
fee; he was finally allowed $500 for
his services. Dick Adams addressed
the council and made an unsuccessful
effort to land big fee. The p.oposi
tion Of the government to pay $780,
600 in full settlement for what was
due the Delawares was accepted and
a per capita payment OF that amount
will be made.
The council voted to accept the
money Under the conditions made by
the act Of appropriation, with the
provision that the money be paid pro
rata to individual Delawares by In
dian Agent Shoenfelt. Attorneys
fees and commissions amounting to
about s35, 900 were presented, five
claimants being represented. The
claim Of Walter Logan, of New York,
for $4,000 was scaled to $4,000 and
ordered paid. The claim Of ex-Sena-
tor Jones for $1,000 legal services for
r. c. Adams was cut down to $1,000
and ordered paid. The claims of three
other lawyers were thrown out
At one time Adams claimed 10 per
cent OF all money and land secured,
but when he found that sentiment
was setting against him he very mag
unanimously relinquished all claims
and got busy taking oil leases from
the Delawares. He secured seventy
three leases, but they were knocked
out. Since the first of May he has
secured about forty new leases. One
feature OF these new leases is a note
for SIS, which he takes from the In
dian, agreeing, when the lease is ap-
proved, to pay back the note.
Indian Commissioner Jones has
been the only official friend that
Adams has had through his various
troubles, Secretary Hitchcock refus-
ing to give him an audience at all or
to consider his schemes. If he makes
his leases stick he viii have a pretty
good thing in the oil business, andcan
let the people who staked him in on
the deal and even things up bit. If
the leases are turned down both him
self and his hackers will be out some
thing.
The council agreed to let the Bar
ties. Ketchum and Dodge families
known as the Kansas Delawares, 20
before the Dawes commission with
their claim for enrolment. Previous
councils had refused to admit the
claim. There are about l,lOo Della
wares to share in the distribution Of
the s150, 900.
