white man which took place at MOnteI-
10, New, December %, 1905. Rev. Fred
erick A. r Pruett of MOnteIlO secured
most of the evidence which led Sheriff
J. E. Clark of ElkO, to arrest the In
dams. DR.. Pruett was also Instrumental
n securing a confession from the pris-
OnerS
The body was found the morning af-
ter the murder near the tie house be-
low the rail- ad station lying across a
smOUldering fire made of ties. The
throat had been cut from ear to ear
and an effort made to burn the body.
The pockets had been turned inside out
and one shoe cut from the foot. The
charred end of a wooden leg was found
in the fire and it was evident that the
murdered man was a cripple. The body
was at last buried after vain efforts
had been made to identify the man.
Preacher Works Hard.
After the case was carefully consid-
cred it was decided that the murder
had been committed by Indians. DR.
Pruett worked constantly on the case
and made several trips to different In
dian camps throughout the state in
search of evidence. At last his efforts
were successful when an Indian named
Joseph at Deep Greek told him that
Ibapah, who killed his father, was i'm
pIcated in the murder.
- DR.. PTuett learned that shortly after
the murder Ibapah returned TO the
Deep Greek country. When the Indians
heard of Ibapah's crime they ordered
him away, and told him that he had
murdered his father and had several
times since broken traditions of his
tribe. John says he is a cousin of
Ibapah and he is considered by his
tribesmen as bad Injun.'
Confession of Ibapah,
The confession made by Ibapah to
DR.. PTuett follows:
I went to MontellO the day before
Christmas, from Deep Creek. / and
Johnnie got drunk Christmas night.
Johnnie and l played 81 at the DagO
saloon two days after Christmas. We
left the saloon about six O'Clock in the
evening. We went there to Mr.. Lewis
store We Stayed there a while, and
then we went over to the depot and
then we went down to the coal chutes
We then went down to the tie house
and found the man that we killed.
Johnnie told the man in the house to
get q bottle Of whisky for him
"The man said he could not go up to
the saloon, he had only one leg. Johnny
told me he was going to kill that fell
low. 1 said nothing. He took hold Of
the mans wrists and holding them
with one hand, caught him by the hair
on the back of head and held his head
back and told me to cut his throat
Johnnie felt in his pocket for money
but did not find any. I cut the mans
throat. The man was lying down and
put my knee on his breast [ held his
coat with my left hand and cut his
throat with my right. The man did not
fight. Johnnie cut off the mans shoes
We then piled ties on the body to burn
it and returned to the Indian camp.
We told Joseph what we had DONE
also Captain jim. I washed my hands
at the camp. l don't feel bad over the
killing"
Indian Johns Story.
John told about the same story as
Ibapah did but DR.. Pruett secured the
following information from him about
Ibapah:
"Ibapah told me how he killed his
father and what kind Of a man he was

Lincoln as a LAWYER.

A leader Of the Lincoln party told
the other day in Philadelphia a story
OF the astuteness of Lincoln as a
lawyer.
when Lincoln was practising law, "
he said he had case involving a
disputed will. The opposition claimed
the will was genuine and for several
hours adduced proof Of this. For
Lincoln, who had to prove the will a
forgery, things looked black.
Lincoln, however, only called one
witness, retired paper manufacture
er, renowned the country over for
his wealth and probity.
Mr.. Dash, Lincoln said to this
witness, handing him the disputed
will, please hold that paper up to
the light and tell us what is the water
mark on it,
The water mark Of my own firm,
Blank & Co., the witness answered.
When did your firm begin to
manufacture paper?'
In 1841.'
And what's the date of the docu.
ment in your lands?'
August II, 1896.

TERRIBLE SCALY ECZEMA.
Eruptions Appeared on Chest, and
Face and Neck Were All Broken
Out-Cured by Cuticura.

81 had an eruption appear on my
chest and body and extend upwards
and downwards, so that my neck and
face were all broken out; also my
arms and the lower limbs as far as
the knees. | at first thought it was
prickly heat But soon scales or
crusts formed where the breaking out
was. Instead of going to physician /
purchased a complete treatment of the
Cnticura Remedies, in which | had
great faith, and all was satisfactory.
A year or two later the eruption ap-
peared again, only little lower; but
before it had time to spread | pro-
cured another supply Of the Cuticura
Remedies, and continued their use I'M
til the cure was complete. 1t is now
five years since the last attack, and
have not seen any signs of return.
| have more faith in Cuticura Rene
dies for skin diseases than anything
know of. Emma E. Wilson, Lis.
