RECALLING ANCIENT HISTORY

The story of the EuDuula train robbery reads
for the world and all like the almost daily events
of score of years ago, In the days Immediately
following the opening to settlement of the Chcro-
kee Strip. the sx-million dollar proceeds of which
were distributed among the Cherokee Indians per
capita, the roadmcn held sway. For % holidozcn
years they made history as it has rarely been made
in any section Of the universe Train robbercs
hold-ups on the lonesome reaches of the sparscly
settled trails, store robbcrcs these were of al
most daily occurrence. And all the while the bad
lands were overrun with deputy United States
marshals who sought their prey far and wide and
so rarely captured.
From Blue Jacket on the north TO ~rmgtown
on the south, there were few switches ON the Ms
souri, Kansas Texas Railway but was thc scene
of one or more of these daring and hairro,.ug bor
der incidents Wyharl, a switch in the Arkansas

almost popular for this sort Of thing
So destructive did the roadmcn become that

order refusing TO accept consigumcuts Of money
or yaluablcs for Indian Territory points Trains

She nodded. Her large head was
somewhat disproportioned to her short
and stoeky body But her glance and
manner were not unpleasing. There
was a moment OF silence which she
fastened to break.
Peggy is very young; It was moi
her fault. She Is 50 young she doesn't

"Judge, she is Of a very affectionate

very vague one, 1t is only to be

On the instant he recognized that no
common interview lay before him. She
was still the mysterious stranger, and
she etill wore her veil--a fact all the
more impressive that 1t was no longer

freely over her bare head. He frowned
as he met her eyes through this dis
