CREEK INDIAN BAND ROUTED.
Detachment of Crazy Snakes Fol-
lowers Dispersed-One Indian
Killed and Eight Captured

Oklahoma City, Okla, March o.
A detachment of Crazy Snakes band
of belligerent Indians was surrounded
Iby deputy sheriffs this afternoon near
Crazy Snakes home, and a lively
battle ensued. More than two hun
dred shots we're fired, and one In
dian was killed. Eight Indians we're
, captured and the remainder fled with
the deputies in pursuit.
There were about fifteen Indians
in the band and they had taken refuge
in a house. The deputies had track
ed them for some distance.
Advancing from all sides, the posse
fired volley at the frail house. The
Indians rushed out, scattered among
the trees and made a valiant defence.
The posse, firing steadily, advanced
and routed the band. None Of those
captured is seriously injured, but 1t
is said that number Of other Indians
were hit with bullets. Crazy Snake 5
band apparently has broken up into
numerous small groups. 1t seemed
at nightfall that each Indian was try
ing to accomplish his own escape
without regard for the grand dreams
of the chieftain to realize which they
were called together Sunday by the
smoke of the signal fires. All ef-
forts at organized resistance seemed
to have been dropped.
The militia7nen, too, scattered in
bands, and invaded the hilly wooded
region of the Creek nation in a deter
mined effort to hunt down both lead
ers, and members of the war party.
! The soldiers soon captured eight
members Of Crazy Snakes forces.
Among those arrested are Little III
ger, a substitute chief, and Simla
Harjo. The latter is not related to
Chitti Harjo.
Most Of these were heavily armed.
The captives We're started for the
militia camp at Hickory grounds un-
der heavy guard. Orders were issued
that the search be kept up and num-
| erous parties went out during tie
early hours Of the night to round up
the renegades.
The Indian killed by the posse was
the only fatality Of the day reported
to Col. Hoffman, who is in command
Of the State troops.
There are numerous rumors of en-
gagements. One story was that
posse Of farmers near Checotah
fought a large band Of negro renegad-
es and killed 20. This and similar re-
ports cannot be confirmed.
Deputy Sli1riff Jones today re-
ported that he believed his posse had
part of Crazy Snakes band surround
ed, including thc chief himself. This
gave rise to a story that the Snake
leader was killed. No confirmation
Of this could be obtained and it prob
ably is incorrect.
Tonight it was thought that Crazy
Snake had carried out his last nj ght s
intention of seeking refuge in the
Hickory Hills, and that he was sup
ported there by some of his chief fo:-
lowers
Despite all the talk about Crazy
Snake, officers have yet to find any
body who has seen him since Sunday
morning Their only belief that he IS
commanding the Indians personally
is based on the information choked
ont of his son by deputies yesterday
when they hanged him by the neck
until he expressed an anxiety to tall.

GIRL CRIES FOR
 MOTHER; SEDUCER
 MUST STAND TRIAL
Annetta Kenny Cannot Ob- tain Consent of Parent to
 Marry Man of Her Choice.

With cries of Mother come to me and take me from this awful place." pretty Anneta Kenny made the halls of police headquarters resound this morning. She had just been shut within the cell room after a hearing in the city court, and the thought that she was behind the bars and separated from her mother caused her to weep and cry out hysterically. Mrs. Kenny did come to, her, but was allowed to talk only through the bars. Anneta wished to be let out so that she might talk to her mother and gain the moth CTS consent to her marriage to John Ryan, with whom she has been living in NOrwalk as Mrs. Ryan.
 Their cases were quickly disposed of in the city court. Ryan is held until Monday next under bonds of $1 900 on the charge of seduction. Miss Helen King departed with Anneta Kenny this afternoon for Hartford where she will place her charge in the House of the Good Shepherd Before leaving An meta made known her future where abOuts to her lover who was locked in a cell downstairs. She discovered that an unused drainage pipe passed through Ryan's cell below and that by calling down through it she could console Ryan and receive what con- solation he had to offer.
 Are you locked in, John?'' she ask ed, and then: eff they ever let me out or this terrible place I'll tear the eyes out of that step-moth ther of yours. What did she complain of us for, when she lived with her husband for over a year before she married hirn?"
 Ryan stoutly maintains that he in- tends to marry the Kenny girl, who is but seventeen years of age, just as soon as he has money enough. For the past two weeks they have been living together in Norwalk, where Ryan has been earning 8 a iday as snaintars fr, I7Yy,o street, this city, and has known the Kenny girl some time. The girl in the case is rather wayward, having been in the hands of the probation of ficer about a year ago when her moth CT claimed that she could not keep her off the streets at night

Tn. Children of the Great.


 There is a tendency for children of exceptional parents to regress toward the average stock. Galton terms this tendency flial repression. This, the London hospital points out, applies equally to exceptional physical and mental characters. Thus, though tall stature may run in certain families, yet there is always a tendency to re- vert to the mean average size. Simi- larly the children of a geniustend to have somewhat less than their fathers power, but more than the average of the race. According to Professor Pear son, distinguished parents are just ten times more likely to have distinguished offspring that undistinguished parents. Still, such cases as the Darwins, fla ther and sons; the two Pitts, Philip and Alexander the Great are exceptional. Similarly also the children of a crim- inal tend to be less vicious than the father, though morally inferior to the average man.

Certain About 1t.

Once upon a time, not 50 long ago, 6 couple of cowpunchers found them selves guests in the home of a minister of the gospel whose custom was to hold family worship of a morning and to conclude the same by asking each one present to give some quotation from the Scriptures. One after an- other repeated some text until at last it came the turn of Jim Bulstoke of the Crowfoot ranch.
 My dear young friend" said the dominic as he saw the latter hesftat- ing, "surely can recall some verse from the Bibler'
 Jim's face was bathed with profuse precipitation, but at last there came to him some approximation of a memory of something he had read or heard at some stage sf his life about the first chapter of Genesis. At last he broke ouk God made the worid.'
 The dominic lifted a hand to hide a sudden smile.- but bowed to Jim's neighbor in the circle. Curley was even worse off than Jim had been and for the life of him could not think of anything. At last, remembering the occasional virtue or good bluff, he twisted one foot around his chair leg and, with all the confidence he could muster, remarked, "He shore didw- Recreation.

His majesty continued the whole time in the heat of all the action, which was said by those who witnessed it to have been as fierce a conflict as had ever been known.
 On the morning of the battle the king appeared in the same red coat he had worn at Oudenarde, thirty-five years before, taking his place at the head of the seven battalions of guards. About noon he ordered a general ad- vance, and during the movements it entailed he was very nearly taken by the enemy, but was rescued by the Twenty-second regiment, who, in re membrance, wore a sprig of oak in their caps upon the anniversary of the battle for many years afterward.-Lon- don Tft-Bits.

 Waterbury, July 7.-At an early hour today two good citizens were strolling 1eisurely toward their homes when on passing the Second Congregational church they were startled by strains of music coming from pipe organ in the interior.

A po- lice officer was summoned by the men and every delinquent home goer was prassed into service. They entered the church and found the organ open but the mysterious musician had dis appeared.
