Many persons repaired to Mr..
H. N. Sowell's meat market
on White street Wednesday to see
a strange animal that had been
shot and killed the night before
on his plantation, by Lee Lowry,
colored, who discovered it in his
chicken house. The animal was
an armadillo, and it escaped, it is
said, from the carnival here re-
Gently. The carnival people cal
led it the grave digger. The ar
madillo is a South American
quadruped, and Webster's Inter
national dictionary says of it:
so called from being armed
with a bony shell. The body and
head are encased in an armor
composed of small bony plates.
The armadillos burrow in the
earth, seldom going abroad ex-
cept at night. When attacked,
they curl up in a ball, presenting
the armor on all sides. Their
flesh is good food. There are
several species, one of which
(the peba) is found as far north
as Texas"

GOV. HASKELL'S CASE TAKES
SENSATIONAL TURN
PROSECUTOR is ACCUSED BY
GRAND JURORS
Members of Inquisitoral Body Allege
They Were Subjected to I'M
proper Influences by
Gregg

TULSA, Okla, May 1S.-Charges
against District Attorney Gregg, made
today by the defense in the Muskogee
town lot fraud cases. were forwarded
to the department of justice at Wash
ington on the suggestion of Judge Mar
shall, who is hearing the case.
Judge Marshall refused to act on the
petition of the defense, asking that
Gregg be prevented from trying the
case.
One of the petitions is signed by GER
tain members of the grand jury that
was charged last Saturday by Judge
John A. Marshall upon motion of Dis
trict Attorney Gregg, who asserted
that the jury had been subjected to
improper influences.
This petition refutes this charge, and
in turn makes serious charges against
both Messrs. Gregg and Rush, involv
ing misconduct before the jury, and
petitions the court to investigate the
Jurors allegations.
The defendants also filed a response
to the motion of District Attorney
Gregg disputing three charges of i'm
proper influence.
This response alleges that Gregg has
used the Tulsa World, of which he is
said to be part owner, to mould senti-
ment and prejudice the court and grand
jury against the defendants, and had
expressed personal antagonism toward
Haskell and others.

REPORTS INDIAN SCHOOLS
HAVE MET WITH SUCCESS
Annual Document of Superintendent
Says Crafts Are Learned
by Many

WASHINGTON, May 1S.-The an
nual report of the superintendent of
Indian Schools Miss Esteel Reel, re-
Gently submitted to the commissioner
of Indian affairs, shows marked edu-
cational advancement during the past
few years in the general field of In
dian education.
The policy of giving industrial train
ing foremost place in the schools has
obtained satisfactory results and the
encouragement of native industries, rug
making and basket making is an i'm
portant feature in the school,
The elevating influence of the day
schools upon the older Indians be-
comes more apparent each year and
special emphasis is laid upon the need
of more of these schools.
The urgent necessity for increased
effort to protect the Indian against
tuberculosis is being impressed upon
the agents and physicians.
Among the evidences of Indian edu-
cation are the reports of the careers
of returned students, which show that
they are endeavoring to overcome the
desire for camp life and prove them
selves worthy of the education they
have received.
A feature of the report is the evil
dence that 1t gives that the Indian is
altering his ways of living to, meet
the requirements of civilization
through the educational influence of
the government schools

Satisfies

SAN FRANCISCO, May 1S.-The ar

Germ known as 1.-THE French China
company was made today after numer-
GUS complaints of swindling had been
made against her by women claiming
to have been victimized. A similar
charge is made against Samuel Trieber,
manager of the company, who, it is
stated, is not in the city.
The detectives investigating the mat
ter assert that the same people have
operated in various cities, their last
place of business being Los Angeles.
Their plan for obtaining money is to
insert an advertisement in the daily
papers offering women easy home work
which will pay we'll An applicant is
sold for $3.50 a package of paper con-
tanning pictures of flowers, brush and
a bottle of mucilage.
The pictures are to be transferred to

the work if satisfactory. 1t never gave
satisfaction however, and on each visit
an effort is made to sell more material.
usually with success, a reduced rate
being offered.
Miss Cummings, the young woman
under arrest, says the main Office of the
company is in Chicago.
AT Los Angeles, where the complaints
also were made, the manager was
known as L. G. Fox, and his assistant
as Miss Anna Freeman, but the police
say they doubtless are the same per-
sons who have been operating here.
