"Where Nature Slips a Cog" "

"Why should one man be a
grotesque dwarf and another an
Apollo, one midget and another
a giant, one an IDIOT and another
a Darwin; in short, why should
different men, sometimes BROTH
ers, raised in the same environ
ments from birth, be opposites,
in a physical, mental, and even

pearing little glands, from the

bucks was too small. He also

The PORuM EEup.

The specter of the Porum feud drag
ged its crimson trail into Muskogee
yesterday and on one of the principal
business corners of the city in the
board light of afternoon with hundreds
of people passing to and fro two me.l
fell perhaps mortallv wounded. shct
without warning by an assassin.
For years this specter of ourlawry
has disgraeed Muskogee and Mcintosh
counties and these neighborhoods be-
fore the counties came into existence.
That such spirit of the savage
primeval days should exist in this
community of twentieth century civil
ization seems almost incredible Yet
exist it does and has and within the
last year at least seven people have
lost their lives and thousands of dol
lars worth o. property nave been de
stroyed.
1t can not be charged that the OH
GERS have not done their duty. Their
vigilance has been untiring, and one
officer not many months ago lost his
lift because of this feud while per
forming his duty.
The people naturally are casting
about for some reason as to why this
disgrace lives op, fiourishes and grows
from day to day The Phoenix can
see but one answer, the inefficieney
and delays in our courts. For this the
judges are not to blame. The fault
lies in the people themselves and in
our system of justice
Several of these men have been
brought to trial. but none has been
punished A man was tried for the
murder Of an officer OF the law aud
acquitted Others who rode in the
masked mob and attacked the home
of a man prominent in this feud were
tried and acquitted.
Several of these feudists, however.
have been tried for cattle stealing
and convicted.
Men tried for murder and acquitted
the same men tried for cattle stealing
and convicted!
The people may find their answer
as to why this feud lives on in them
selves-Phoenix.

There is at least one pleasing as.
pect of the great ocean disaster that
occurred yesterday in which nearly
1000 persons met their death when
the great steamer. the Titanic. went
down to the bottom of the sea, The
men on that vessel proved themselves
to be heroes in giving the life boats
to the women and children and went
down to death a willing ssacritice to
the weak ones of the race. As the
lowly Nazarine gave his life for others
so these brave men stood aside and
saw the life boats filled with the weak
and the helpless ones of the Inflated
vessel
1t makes one feel kindlier to all
humanity when such deeds are re-
corded.

johnson had something to do with the

opponent is a mystery. as neither man
is a real match for the Pueblo fireman
Flynn has trained hard the few days
he has been here and expects no trou-
Bile in stopping Williams before the
limit. Williams has no record to speak
of, but is a hard man to catch and may
give Flynn some trouble. A big crowd

When the Cubs journey southwark

one OF the greatest players who ever
wore a Chicago National league uni

known to the fans as Cubs" will be

Pop" Arson he is called today, but
I'm the days gone by Captain Adrian c..
Arson was his official title. Pop or
Cap. whichever suits the present day
fan best, is going south with we'll
defined idea In his head.
It's not going to be all beer and
skittles' with the captain. On the con-
trary, he's going on the trip to take
off about forty pounds of superhuous
avoirtupois. and he wants that off be-
cause he's going TO play baseball again.
It's not Anson's intention to sign a
regular contract with a regular team
for a regular season. He hasn't re-
ceived an offer of this sort. and he
doesn't expect that he will. But he's
going to be seen at first base against
the CUBS, playing for the home team
at every exhibition game during the
training trip. and If his scheme works
out he'll play at least one game at first
base weekly throughout the coming
regular season.
The idea is this" said Arson when
he dropped into Cub headquarters yes
terday to talk over going away with
