Hunter Shot.
LOSS WAS GREAT
Oklahoma City, Okla., Oct. 22.—
While returning from a hunting trip
lale yesterday afternoon Harry Coch-
ran, 18 years old, was probably fatally
... | shot by accidental discharge of a 22
< alibre rifle. He and his twelve year
W | old brother Burr.le had been together
ffl oa the hunting trip and wore near the
|l city when the accident occurred,
tjj It appears from the statements
jjj made by the two boys that they had
engaged in some good natured scuf-
fling over the gun which had been
taken apart, the younger boy getting
the barrel. He had some cartriges
and placed one in the gun. A moment
later he accidentally dropped the gun
which struck a rail and was dis-
charged.
The bullet entered the body of the
elder boy just to the left of the left

M. E. APPOINTMENTS.
Jasksonville, Kla., Oct. 22—Accord-
ing to the latest reports from Miami,
it is definitely established that one
hundred and ten persons lost their
lives in the storm of last Thursday.
New York, Oct. 22—Further re-
ports of Thursday's terrible storm
along the lower Atlantic coast show
thatt he earlier dispatches gave only
glimpses qf the death and destruc-
tion wrought by wind and wave.
All the officers and crew of the
steamer Farwell which went ashore
off Cape Henry, were saved, but at
least twenty-one of the passengers
and crew of the steamer St. Lucie
wrecked off Elliots Key were drowned
and a hundred and one were lost from
boatt No. 4 of the Florida East Coast
railway.
Survivors of the St. Lucie were
taken into Miami, Florida, late Fri-
day night on the steamer Virginia.
Many of the bodies were buried
without being identified.
The storm had an echo as far
across the continent as Utah for on
Friday evening a terrific wind blew
down street lamps In Salt Lake City
and strewed the thoroughfares with
trees and signs, injuring several per-
sons.
Stories told by the survivors of the
South Atlantic wrecks lead to the be-
lief that other vessels were lost in
the storm of Thursday. Much anxiety
for small craft was felt in many ports
last night and rescue tugs were sent
out to scour the sea in search of cast-
aways. Wreckage apparently not
from ships known to bo lost was
found on several beaches giving rise
to the gravest apprehensions.

John Longarm, a muscular Indian rail-

from marrying his sweetheart by her
mother, the wife of White Wolf Tooth.
White Wolf Tooth has not expressed
his opinion, but it is believed he favors
the young Indian's suit.
It is the belief among tne older In-
dians that no honorable Indian should
work for a white man. To leave the
reservation and labor for the railroad
contractors is what has caused the
storm from Mrs. White Wolf Tooth.

L d Close it Cushing.
Stillwater, Okla., Oct. 22—Chief Jus-
tice John H. Burford continues the
town of Cushing "dry" by a decision
given at Stillwater during the past
week. James Lee in August, 1905,
made application to the Payne county
commissioners for a license to operate
a saloon in Cushing. He then left the
county and did not return and ask for
the license until in September, 1906,
over a year later. The board of com-
missioners then refused to issue the li-
cense, on the ground that Lee's delay
was unreasonable, but County Attorney
Workman ordered the license issued
and this was done. The town trus-
tees of Cushing then carried the mat-
ter before Judge Burford, who sus-
tained the board and ordered the li-
cense canceled.
