 According to the story told the
 county authorities, Mrs. Murray,
 who is a daughter of Mrs. Grace of Globe, and who has resided at the county seat for a number of years, accompanied a cowboy named Ro- land Jones to a dance at Wheatfields last Saturday evening. Mrs Mur- rey had obtained some liquor in some unknown manner and she drank considerable quantity of it. Quarreling with Roland Jones, she refused to allow Jones to take her back to Globe, but entered an auto mobile belonging to another party and asked Monk Bailey to take her back to the county seat. Bailey consented. On the way back she asked Bailey to let her look at pis- tol which she knew he had. The youth consented, thinking idle curi- osity the motive behind the request. Before any of the other persons in the automobile could stop her she | aimed the weapon at the top of the | head. The bullet tore away a DOT | ion of the skull and inflicted wound | rom which it was impossible to re- cover. However, she fingered for | nore than twenty-four hours until | his morning, when she died.

get any coal they would be done and
would ask the governor to send them
home. II had my husbands letters

bout to 60 crazy. | heard the letter

could come back home. | will write

others that we will publish from time

Now. her letter was received prior to
Mrs. Browns. The lawsuit Sam won

his daughter of II Immediately. That
is what Lyddell tells the followers
who live at Weleetka. to keep the in
formation about the lawsuit to them
selves iadseridds ewolfolvH p.Ers
selves and not let any Of the outsid-
ers get hold of IT, But we have the
information and we ask again what
are they doing with the money they
are collecting now? Is Liddell put
ting II in his pocket? Are the agents
collecting now turning the money into
the treasury? No! a thousand times
no! We believe the various agents
are whacking up with Liddell and that
they are keeping the money. Let the
followers stop now from paying any
more money to Liddell and the var
ious agents.
What are they doing with the mon
ey? Where is the money?
Just as the followers in Arkansas
killed DIR. Lighfoot when he refused
to return their money the followers
of Sam ought to give the agents and
officers of the Chief Sam scheme
good beating. Where is the money
they are collecting now?

II is indeed gratifying to know that
the followers OF Sam are now confes.
sing in no uncertain terms that the
movement is a fake and that Sam Is
not the chief of the Ashantaes, not
their Moses, but a fake and a decei-
yer. We are glad to say that we pre-
dicted the end would come and we
are glad to know they are confessing
now and will thank us in the near fu-
ture for our stand in this matter.

TRADERS


Mr.. Trader has been criticized for
shipping into Tulsa in car load lots
and making low prices MIR. Trader
always gives home production prefer
ence, prices and quality being equal.
But as our fruit and truck growers
are not organized they can not supply
the demand of the people. One day II
is all one thing, and the next day It
is all something else. No variety and
nothing lasting.
Mr.. Traders customers are mostly
laboring people and they have to eat
every day, and they depend upoA him
to buy wherever he can buy ,ne cheap
est and to protect them in prices. So
high prices is good for the producer.
but low prices are good for the con.
sumer and what Is good for the one
is hard on the other.
MIR. Trader buys on the open mar
ket for cash, he buys in carlots. he
buys for less and he can sell for less
and he does sell for less.

During the Balkan war, Professor Lau-

seemingly, were troubled from cerebro-
spinal disturbances, although having
escaped bullet Sometimes the vic
Tins became cataleptic and in less
serious cases there were symptoms Of
fainting, tingling sensations and par
tial paralysis.
In instances where this mysterious
infiiction caused death, autopsies were
held and these invariably revealed no

Professor Laurent that the variations
of atmospheric pressure caused by the
passing of the projectile had an effect
upon the nerve cells. causing inhibi-

SOME HARD KNOCKS
Woman Gets Rid Of "coffee Habit"

The Injurious action of coffee on the
hearts Of many persons is we'll known
by physicians to be caused by caffeine.
This is the drug found by chemists in
coffee and tea.
A woman suffered long time with
severe heart trouble and finally her
doctor told her she must give up cof-
fee, as that was the principal cause Of
the trouble. She writes:
my heart was SO weak It could not
do its work properly. My husband
would sometimes have to carry me
from the table, and 1t would seem that
I would never breathe again.
"The doctor told me that coffee was
causing the weakness Of my heart. He
said must stop it, but 1t seemed
could not give 1t up until was down
In bed with nervous prostration.
For eleven weeks I lay there and
suffered. Finally husband brought
home some Postum and quit coffee
and started new and right. Slowly I
got well. Now do not have any head
aches, nor those spells with weak
heart. We know it is Postum that
helped me. The Dr.. said the other
day: 7 never thought you would be
what you are I used to weigh 81
pounds and now I weigh 1853.
Postum has done much for me and
I would not go back to coffee again,
for I believe 1t would kill me II I kept
at 1t. Postum must be prepared &C
