IRONSIDES VS.
CITY OF vINITA

The case of Bird Ironsides vs. the
city of Vinita went to trial in the
district court. Judge Parker, presid-
ing, this morning before the following
jury: G. e. Smiley, W. f. Paris, @. S.
McCombs, j. w. Clawson, w. c. Skel-
ton, Willis Milles,J. W. Harris, John
Sweatman, Roe Rafferty,, c. A. Ty-
Ter, Campbell Christian and G. w
Lester.
Several months ago fire partially
detroyed an old iron covered building
belonging to the Ironsides and locat-
ed on South Wilson street,
When the owners commenced max
ing repairs on the building they we're
stopped by the city authorities on the
grounds that the city ordinance in
relation to the character of building
within the fire limits, were being vi
lated. Other cases in connection
with the same building and the city
of Vinita have been grinding through
the courts for almost two years and
one of them is now hanging fire in
the court Of appeals In this particu-
lar case the plaintiff is suing the city
for the rental of $40 per month
since the date the workmen were en-
joined from making repairs on the
building.
This afternoon the evidence Of the
plaintiff having been presented to the
court the defense filed a motion ask
ing the court to instruct the jury to
find verdict for the defendant. The
motion was sustained.

Sol Smith Russell's "a Poor RAla-
tion' which will be presented at the
opera house next Friday, November p.
is rarely entertaining and sympa-
thetic drama which that eminent
actor made famous. Dealing with
the tribulations, misfortunes and ulti-
timaCe triumph Of a poor inventor
made the victim Of scoundrels, the
play contains infinite touches Of hu-
man nature that appeals 10 the hearts
best and noblest impulses. Noah
Vale's fatherly interest in and care
for a poor waif OF boy and girl,
whom he manages TO feed and clothe
out Of his own meager means forms
one Of the pathetic touches or the
play, which likewise ab0unds ia many
flashes OF genial wit and humor Ii
has its romance TOO tho tile outlook
for poor Noah is very dark until at
last he reaps the reward Of his inyen-
tive genius, and the villains who stole
his designs are unmasked
Infinite amusement IS caused by tie
scene in which Noah mends the cloth-
ing Of the little boy The urchin not
knowing the luxury Of two pairs Of
breeches aud the only pair he owns,
needing repairs, Noah stands him in
side an empty barrel, while he re-
moves the necessary garment. mends
them quickly restores them to the lad,
and then lifts him out OF fhe barrel
in good order Dramatic interest is
Sustained by the scheming villain to
defraud Noah out Of the big profits Of
his invention, and the consequent IN
dignities and suffering he is compell-
ed to endure, but IN the end he cir
cumyents the plotters, who are ex-
posed and Noah comes into his rights.
The play is replete WHY serSe dia-
logue and witty observations AMI a
thoroly Pnjoyable presentation by
a capable company is assured.

No Cure for Insomnia.

A sufferer from insomnia may work
hard at physical and mental labor, yet
the night cometh when no man can
work. The insomniac, utterly fa-
tigued, falls into a slumber-not a
sound, refreshing, dreamless slumber
but a coma, lethargy, q torpor, born
of fatigue. In few hours the demon
saws "Awake!" and the insomniac
starts instantly into waking with
bright, staring, winkless, sleepless
eyes. Is there no cure2 None. In
somnia comes with age. You cannot
cure your years. You used to sleep
yesterday when you were young. Not
poppy, nor mandragora, nor all the
drowsy sirups Of the world can medi-
cine thee to that sweet sleep which
yesterday thou hadstv-San Francisco

AM old trunk
And ITS TREASURE
A Supposed Valuable Find BY Dr. VIII
IiamS of This City, Occasions Con.
siderable Excitement.

About year ago an old man, 76
years OF age, a member OF the g A.
r., was put off the train at Claremore.
He was sick, lame, and helpless. For
several hours he lay in the depot, and
no one offered him any assistance.
Finally DR.. w. G. Williams who then
lived in Claremore, but who has since
come to Vinita as manager of the
Suipho. Magnetic Water company,
heard OF the old mans condition and
took charge Of him, giving him every
attention until his death, which oc.
cured three days later.
The old mans name was Benefited.
BY his request his relatives, who we're
numerous, were notified Of his con-
dltion, and, later, Of his death, but
they refused to come to his bedside
or to render any assistance whatever,
not even for his burial. The old mans
body, however, was given decend and
respectable burial by Dr. Williams.
A few days ago Or. Williams re-
turned to Claremore on business.
While there the city marshal told
him that an old trunk was at the de-
pot, which belonged to old man Bene-
field. The city marshal and depot
agent, not knowing what to do with
the trunk, requested the doctor to re-
turn it to the old soldiers relatives.
The Vinita daily chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1902-1913, 1906-10-26

The doctor brought the old trunk
home with him TO Vinita. An exam
ination Of its contents proved that
the old man had been a strange
character, having spent many years
OF his life as a prophet and soothsayer
There was mass of old papers and
rubbish, and, down In the corner an
old canyas-covered package. The doc
tor opened it casually, then dropped
IL, his eye bulging. 20. minute he
waslon the point Of fainting. Then
he hastily grabbed the package and
made a beeine for the bank.
The doctor refused TO say what it
was that he found, for he thinks the
relatives have forfeited all right to
the old mans legacy and he doesn't
intend that they shall be given any
chance TO secure something to which
he thinks they have no claim.
The doctors friends, however, say
that If the depot employees and hack
men who used the old trunk for seat
all summer at the Claremore depot
only knew what it was that the doc
tor found they would an take week
of and hire some one to kick them
for the entire time.
IT is said that some Of Benedeld's
people are well-to-do, and that he has
a son and nephew living in Coifeyville.

where anv serious leaks have devel-
