Panther Stories RJfe
T. J. Brown, a resident of Davis,
I. T„ who owns a large cattle ra/ich
near Lindsay, relates a panther
story well worth repeating- He
says that a short time ago, hoar his
ranch, a large panther visited the
home of Rev. Mr Burris, living
about four miles frem Lindsay, and
killed several dogs. The fight
lasted two hours. It is believed
that this immense animal is able to
kill a dozen or more dogs with ease.
Three of the dogs killed were
young foxhounds, while one of the
number was an immense bulldog.
During tht fyht the minister fired
several shots from a revolver, but
the panther, after killing every dog
on the place, left for parts un-
known. Mr. Brown says the resi-
dents of that neighborhood have
organized a! panther hunting society
and a general campaign will be
waged against such animals in the
future.__ ____
Reasons for Going to Church.
An Oklahoma exchange says that
there are ^everal reasons for going
to church: "Some go to weep,
while others go to sleep; some go
to tell their woes, while others go
to show their clothes; some go to
hear the preacher, others like the
solo screecher; boys go to recon-
noiter, gills go because they orter;
some go for reflection, but precious
few go to help the collection.”
Mian Is Mayor of Bartlesville.
Fred McDar.iel.' the mayor of
Bartlesville, according to the Kan-
sas City Journal, is a quarterblood
Cherokee Indian. He \ias born
near Fort Gibson in 1872 and re-
ceived his education at the Chero-
■ kee orphan asylum. graduating urn vive went co

term. During his administration
the town has grown from an ob-
scure village to a city of 4000,
with a public school building of
magnificent proportions, a system
of water works, electric light and
sewerage, in all of which he has
been a potent factor. Soon after
going to Bartlesville he secured
lands adjoining the city on the
south, which since have made him
wealthy. Oil was the secret of
this! A company was formed, of
which he was made president, to
develop the tract. In 1904 he was
elected to the directorate of the
First National bank, being re-elect-
ed a short time since. Mr. McDan-
iel enjoys the distinction of being
the only Indian in the territory who
has succeeded in having the re-
strictions removed from both his
allotment and homestead. The
exchange says that in a personal
way Fred McDaniel is one of those
men who make friends and hold
them. To knovy him is to like him
and trust him. He is open handed
in the support of all charitable and
industrial movements, and in loy-

Try It on the Mule.
A writer in a metropolitan paper
claims that many animals show
their grief when abused or badly
frightened by the copious shedding
of tears. "We would suggest, for
the benefit of science," says the
Nevada, Mo., Herald, "that this
naturalist try the experiment of
grieving a Missouri mule to deter-
mine in what manner that noted
quadruped manifests feeling. By
the same token we will predict that
if there are any tears shed it will
not be by the widow and orphans
of the mule.”
