ARRESTED FOR FORGERY.
Charles o. Handy Again at
His Old Tricks.

Cbas. o. Handy. a lad of
about 20 years, who was rails
ed in Sweet Springs, was ar.
rested in HiggInville last
week on q charge of forgery.
He had received a letter while
In Mar shall con tanning d money
order for $50 intended for
Charley e. Hanley, o! New
Mexico. who was also visiting
here. He forged Mr.. Han
ley's name and secured the
cash. His arrest followed.
He plead guilty before J. M.
Nuckols, United States Com.
missioner at Kansas City
Friday morning and is held
for trial under $500 bond.
Handy came here from
Sweet Springs January a year
ago. He had worked in q res.
tAurant there and had passed
several worthless checks.
His father at the time was
engineer for the Marshall
Mill a. Elevator Co. and they
boarded together at the Cot
tage hotel.
Young Handy soon after
his arrival here secured sew
eral small amounts on worth
less checks which his father
made good. He also called at
the Republican Office and had
wedding invitations printed
and gave a worthless check In
payment. lie also wanted us
70 cash a $40 check for him,
but we had been "hatchedy'
TO early for his kind And
would have had him arrested
but for the fact that his father
promised to watch him here
after.
His father now resides in
Hipgiusville. The young
man is almost hopeless. He
seems TO have no idea Of right
or wrong and will stop q,
nothing. A good long sen
tence may set him to think

Saturday and told of II scare
his wife got on Thursday Of
last week. While gathering
eggs in the stable she started
To reach into IA nest but was
very much frightened To see
"a large blacksnake coiled up
in the place where the eggs
ought to have been. The
snake was killed aud found ~
have eaten an egg and a young
chicken. Several hours later
another blacksnake was found
in the same nest, which was
also killed. Both snakes
measured six feet. Blue

many snake stories recently
and we are told that there
may be more forthcoming, ~

REMARKABLE OPERATION
A Marshall Boy Will Return
Home With a Practi-
cal Foot.

Through the efforts of DR.. II.
II. Nuckles a small fund was
raised to defray the expenses
of little Joe Evans, a hopeless
cripple of our streets, t
Kirksville and back where
he had made arrangements to
have his foot operated on free.
Joe is "a boy about IL years
old residing on East Vest
street. When one year old
he fell from the bed catching
his foot between the bed rails
and hanging in this manner
for some time. His limb was
paralyzed aud having no ad-
vantages Of having his foot
cared for, his foot was drawn
to The extreme, having been
neglected for so many years,
that he was walking on top of
his foot and his toes turned
backward when the operation
was performed.
Little Joe has been a fam
liar figure on our streets with
his broom stick.
He was operated on by DR..
r. u. Young, head surgeon
ut the American School OF Os.
teopathy in the presence Of
the Tri.state Osteopathic con-
ventlon. The physicians
learning OF the boys financial
straits raised another purse
Of abont $50 10 enable the boy
to remain at the hospital until
his foot is well. This hospi-
tai Is one of the best in the
stite. a nice building up-to-
date in every particular, none
better.
There are numerous cases
in every community where "a
little assistance IN needed for
the afflicted and unfortunate.
IL is the desire Of the trustees
of this hospital to endow sew
eral wards to care care for
such cases at the hospital at
Kirksville. Anyone who feels
interested in assisting this
worthy cause can speak to
DR.. Il. III. Nuckles or send
his name direct To the osteo-
pathic hospital at Kirksville.

"CUTlCURA REMEDIES A
HOUSEHOLD STANDBY"

Last year, after having my little
girl treated by n very prominent physis
clan for an obstinate case of e"2ema,
] resortcd TO the Cuticuru Remedies,
and was so VOL pleased with the almost
instantaneous relief afforded that we
discarded the physicians prescription
and rehed'cntirely on the Cuticura Soap,
CutiCura Ointment, and Cuticura Pills.
When we commenced with the Cuti-
cura Remedies her feet and limbs were
covered with running sores. In about
six weeks we had her completely well,
and there has been no recurrence OF
the trouble.
"In July Of this year n little boy in
our family poisoned his hands and arms
with poison oak, and i'm twenty-four
hours his hands and arms were a mass
of torturing sores. We used only the
Cuticura Remedies, washing his hands
and arms with the Cuticura Soap, and
amounting them with the Cuticura Oint-
ment, and then gave him the Cuticura
Resolvent. In about three weeks his
hands and arms healed up. So we have
lots of cause for feeling grateful for the
Cuticura Remedies. We find that tho
Cuticura Remedies are q valuable
household standby, living as we do
twelve miles from a doctor. Mrs. Lizzie

Seeing Things Differently

The, Anadarko Tribune
under the heading "The
Tamest Affair of the Season
comments unkindly upon the
Democratic County Conven-
tion at the court house Sat.
urday. The Tribune is a
force for the good of the
county, or endeavors to be,
and wishes and nearly alway
tries to represent the facts
as they actually occurred.
Yet here, because of partisan
bias. our good friend down
the street gives its readers
TO understand that "a few
democrats gathered at the
court house Saturday and
went through the formality
OF electing delegates to at
tend the Geary convention
Thus to characterize such a
big splendid meeting, great,
er in number and interest
than any meeting OF any
kind that the Democrat man
has attended in Anadarko,

sentation as could only
come about through bias or
other reasons less creditable.
Let's don't put our sincerity
in question by this sort Of
thing. brother; a mistate-
ment is too often the means
used by Republican news

the Democratic party. Now,
the Democrats know that it
is necessary only to state
the facts about Republican
politics in Oklahoma to do

The Democratic candidat-
.es for reelection TO city
Offices will enter upon the
campaign with minds over
clouded with grief because OF
the wholly unexpected on
slaught of the Tribune in
Thursdays issue. The city
government is held up as a
pitiful failure, guilty OF NAL
administration as shown in
keeping the roads in bad
condition delapidating the
sidewalks, putting the cleo
trio lighting system son the
bum'and keeping the pumps
in the city water works plant
out OF condition, so that
| thousands of dollars worth
OF valuable property might
90 up in smoke. We wonder
il the aldermen, i'll whose
hands the city government
is vested are not paralyzed
with CONSERVATION as well,
now that the public knows
them in their true colors.
We have endeavored to do
Justice to the frame of mind
in which Messrs. Smith, Dun
can, Westphal, and Gallag-
her must be placed by the
Tribune's sudden exposure.
As to the feelings of Messrs.
Berdori, Watkins, Kunkel,
and Weimer, the Republican
members, who have been
charged equally with the
Democrats with the admin
stration OF the city's bust
ness, we trust that they will
express them through the
columns OF the Tribune; or il
the Tribune has no space ir
which these gentlemen may
set forth their side of the
proposition, the Democrat
will give them space.
