CHIEF GERONIMO
HAS BECOME A
GOOD INDIAN"
Aged Apache Warrior Dead at
Fort Sill
NEARLY go YEARS OF AGE
Reputation for curelty, Cunning and
Ability as a Leader Unsur
passed in Indian History.

Lawton, Okla, Feb. 1S.-Geronimo.
the Apache Indian chief died Of pneu-
monia yesterday in the hospital at
Fort Sill. He was nearly 80 years
of age, and had been held at the Fort
as a prisoner of war for many years.
He was buried in the Indian Gene
terry today by the missionaries, the
old chief having professed religion
three years ago.
AS the leader of the warning Apa-
ches of the Southwestern territories
in pioneer days, Geronimo gained a
reputation for cruelty and cunning
never surpassed by that of any other
American Indian chief. For more
than twenty years he and his men
were the terror of the country, al
ways leaving trail of bloodshed
and devastation The old chief was
captured many times, but always got
away again, until his final capture, in
1886, by small command of infantry
scouts under Capt. H. w. Lawton.
who. as Major General, was killed at
the head of his command in the Phil
ippines, and Assistant Surgeon
Leonard Wood, today in command of
the Department of the East, with
headquarters at Governors Island
The capture was made in the sum
mer, after long and very trying cam
paign of many months, in which
Lawton and Wood gaineda reputation
which will be long remembered in the
ANNALS of the army. Geronimo was at
first sent to Fort Pickens, but was
later transferred to Fort Sill. Until
a few years ago he did not give up
the hope OF some day returning to
the leadership of the tribes of the
Southwest. and in the early years OF
bis imprisonment he made several at
tempts to escape.

FRANK 3. HOVE, Editor and Publishes
Not to Blame for Its Weakness.

In order to show the depths to
which a narrow and distorted vision
and a warped mental bias will lower
an editorial writer, the Banner re-
prints in this issue a bitterly malig-
nant article from the Rutland Herald
in which the Herald gets down into
the gutter to throw mud at the editor
of the Banner.
Now we do not intend to waste
much space or weary our readers long
in replying to the Herald's outburst
There is no truth in the Heralds
statement. Former Governor McCul-
Tough has no strings on the Banner
never has had since it came into pos.
session of the present publisher-nev-
er dictated or Influenced the policy of
the paper and never tried to. Never
even directly or indirectly has he sug.
gested or intimated that he was even
interested in the editorial attitude of
the paper, since it was sold to the
present editor six years ago.
Not only are the Heralds state
ments wholly without foundation but
there appears to be a personal amin
us in the attack more than is shown
in the printed article for the editor of
the Banner once told the present ed
itor of the Herald the circumstantial
story of the formers purchase of the
Banner. Neither the Banner nor its
editor ever received a dollar or its
equivalent either directly or indirectly
from Gen. Mccullough, except the
three dollars year that he has paid
for his subscription to the Evening
Banner. And the present editor OF
the Herald is one of those who has
first hand knowledge that in making
this statement the Banner is telling
the exact truth. Had the yarn print
ed by the Herald come from some
sources we should not have been sur.
prised because there are always few
low'minded people who prefer to be.
lieye evil and circulate falsehood even
when they know the truth but the
Herald is not low-minded and we are
therefore compelled to believe that
its offense against journalistic decency
and the ethics of the profession is due
simply TO ungovernable temper. On
that ground we excuse It and without
resentment, for no one should be
judged too harshly for the foolish
things he says in the heat of passion.
We have, therefore, no hard feelings
toward the Herald or its editor. It's
action in this matter is merely mat.
ter of temperament. We have all met
people who had this same weakness.
When worsted in an argument they
get angry and call names. II is a
condition to be pitied rather than
blamed. Having taken an untenable
position and been smoked out 1t can
do only what its weakness compels
It has in the past and It will again
in the future. The Banner requests
its friends who know the truth to
harbor no ill-will toward the Herald.
1t is a very readable and interesting
paper and, as rule, its readers can
easily distinguish between facts and
mere vagaries oftemper not always well
controlled

IF IT DISAPPEARS ITS ECZEMA.
How to Tell Whether Skin Affection
is an Inherited Blood Disease or Not

Is an Inherited Blood Disease or Not
Sometimes it is hard to determine
whether a skin affection is a sign Of
a blood disorder or simply form Of
eczema. Even physicians ares often
puzzled in their diagnosis. The best
way for any one afflicted Is to go to
w. l.. Gokay's or any good druggist
who handles pure drugs and obtain so
cents worth of poslam. Apply this,
and IL the itching stops at once and
the trouble is cured in a few days it
may be set down as having been &c
zema as this is the way poslam acts
in the worst cases OF eczema and in
curing acne, herpes, blotehes, letter,
piles, salt rheum, rash, BARRIERS and
other forms Of itch, scaly scalp and
all surface skin affections.
Those who will write to the Emer-
gency Laboratories, No. 80 West 25th
Street. New York, can secure by mail
tree of charge, supply sufficient to
cure small eczema surface or clear
complexion overnight and remove
pimples in twenty-four hours.
