SUICIDE BY FrRE Ar MApmn.


~ L. hampton, and old and high
ly respected citizen of Madill, Okla
homa, and one of the pioneers of
southern Oklahoma, committed sui
eide shortly after midnight last
Thursday in a most horrible manner.
Hampton had been in i'll health for
several years, and it is thought was
mentally unbalanced at the time he
took his life
Carefully guarding against acci-
dent, he hid several gallons Of coal
oil on vacant lot near his rest
dence. Repairing to the point where
the oil was hidden, he thoroughly
saturated his clothing, head and
body with the inflammable fluid and
set fire to himself.
Lee Jones, neighbor, saw the
flames. and hearing the shrieks of
agony of the suicide rushed to his
assistance and extinguished the
flames, but not until the unfortu-
nate victim had been burned to a
crisp. Hampton lived in great agony
for seven hours before death reliev-
ed his sufferings.

with her, on horseback for the Cum

organized a possee and started in
pursuit. Every horse and mule from
the mill and from the country
around was taken by the possee. and
every available man; Charles Brown

Cahrles Brown knew what route
the possee had taken and was hor-

met the outlaws with their captive.
that the officers had taken the
wrong rail- Moreover. neither horse
or mule was obtainable, and by this
time the possee was, he knew, far
away.
But Brown had in his makeup the
first element of manhood, initiative.
moreover he was young, and the
courage of the mountaineer was in
his veins. and he loved the little
child.
Arming himself with two reyolv-
ers, Charles Brown set out on foot

is a beautiful. new custom which
America has to set apart one day to
be observed in honor of Mother. To
many Il means honor to her memory
and to many others It brings an op-
portunity to place few white flow
ers in The hands Of her who has low
ed uscas only mother can love. No
man sinks so low that mothers
love does not reach him. She is
our friend when all others cease to
be. She exults in our prosperity
when others might allow the fires
of envy to be- kindled. Her love may
seem dormant in the days Of pros
perity, but Il kindles up and CLEANS
and blazes when adverslty comes.
Remember mother every day. but es-
pecially remember her next Sunday.

ers going into the fall primary and
helping to nominate a candidate.

election. II has been intimated that
several candidates for state office
would get the support of certain
Republicans and others in. the pri-
mary and when It came to the gen
eral election these same voters
would knife the regular nominee in
favor of their partisan candidate. In
response to an inquiry by the county
eection board to Ben Riley, secretary
of the state election board, the fol-
lowing reply has been received
which is self-explanatory:

publicans, Socialists, Progressives,
or any other party will not be per-
mitted to vote in the primary for
