made terrific lunges at Rider. AS Rider

third floor the bulky form of the coat

"Look QUIT" the fugitive yelled. "Here
he comes, here he comesl" Rider, his
speed increasing at every step, swung
past the patrolman and crashed into
his third-Aoor room, closing the door
with bang.
Up the stairway tore Francisco, his
eyes now levcled upon new and more
imposing foe. The policeman steadied
himself, and as the Spaniard took a
flying leap they came together, Fran
cisco making desperate thrusts with
his knife. Protecting himself as best
he could, Flick shoutcd: "Get back or

After the Spaniard had been sent to

Are Far From Subdued

Ringleaders Among the Men

PITTSBURGH, July 1e.-After yes
terday's riot and fire at the Western
Penitentiary, which resulted in a prop
erty loss of 100000 and the wounding
of fourteen persons, the rebellious con-
victs to-day, although confined closely
to their cells, were far from being
cowed. To show their indifference to
prison officials, guards, state troopers
and city police. they kept up con-
tinual din during the day of shrieks,
howls and epithets.
The women convicts, not to be out
done by the male prisoners, to-day be-
gan rioting in their section of the. big
pen. Ordinary methods of suppression
proving unavailing, it was found neces-
sary to place the three rirsleaders of
the women's mutiny in straitjackets.
They are being kept that way. AS in
the case Of the men, the trouble
makers among the women are said to
have come from the Eastern Peniten-
tiary.
Twenty of the ringleaders among the
men this morning were singled out
from their several hundred companions
and hurried to the dungeons, where
they will be confined at least until the
prison board has finished it's investi-
CATION of the outbreak.
The chief explanation given for the
rebellious attitude of the prisoners is
that the food served them was unfit.
Thirty-six state troopers, under the
command of Captain Lighthouser, ar
rived at the institution to-day. No
sooner had they appeared than several
of them were told that two convicts
who have been missing since the riot
ing Yesterday were on the roof of the
big building and must be brought down.
The troopers were told not to shoot
unless it was absolutely necessary.
hurried search from all sides failed to
disclose the two convicts anywhere on
the big gabled roof, which is covered
with ramparts and towers. Officials Of
the prison believe that the men on
learning that their whereabouts had
been discovered slipped through one OF
the tower windows and are hiding IN
the upper recesses of the building.
Meals, consisting mostly of bread
and water. were served to the prisoners
in their cells to-day. This was neces-
stated by the fact that the kitchen
and dining rooms of the institution
were destroyed yesterday.

BURIAL GROUNDS
OF CREEKS PASSING
Civilization Is Crowding Out Historic
Spot Where Famous Chiefs Are
Inferred

OKMULGEE, Okla, March 12.-En-
crOaching civilization is crowding out the
old Greek burial grounds in the northeast
part OF the. city-a spot that contains
the remains of many of the famous old
chiefs that roamed the prairies of the
Indian territory before civilization lent
its advances to the trades that are now
pushing il into the background
The humdrum of pneumatic riveting
machines and the roar of speeding trains
is breaking the sacred silence that at
tends the burial place of these ancient
chiefs and tribeSmen Of once powerful
nation. Shadows of tanks and towers
play over the tnmbled and broken stones
that were once monuments to the
achievements of noted Creek leaders.
The cemetery. now located near the
oil retinerieS Of Okmulgec in years gone
by WAS the national burial grounds of
the Greek tribe. I'm those days the ceal-
ctery was watched over and cared for as
are the larger burial plots Of the coun-
try today. But now, the burial ground
is becoming oblitcrated: the tombstones
and markings are broken and scattered.
Scores of the graves are unmarked.
and many of them have been lost iu the
shuttle of time. The old wooden cover
ings are decayed and fallen. the larger
stone boxes. which in some cases were
used aS Baskets being the only tablets
of their kind To withstand the waste of
years.
Little or no attempt is being made to
preserve the burying ground \ fence
was once erected around the plot. but
today it has fallen like dozens of the
monuments. and horses and cows Craze
over and around the graves.
On some of the stones The names 81
the dead are clearly marked while from
others weather and time has practically
erased the names once crudclv cut there
in. On top of the hand-wrought stone
boxes which still are intact are curiously
carved designs of flowers and animals
