The people should prepare to

The Eagle's assault upon coun-

Newkirk, Ok., May 23.—L. R.
Hiatt, a well driller and a widow-
er with four children under 13
years, was found dead yesterday
at 3 p. m. on the prairie three
miles cast of Kildare with his
throat cut on each side. An in-
quest showed he had been dead 48
hours. He was buried today. It
is a vert mysterious case. There
are some indications of possible
suicide, but he was a man of
steady habits and no cause for
suicide is known. His children
say he had a pocket book and
some money but neither was found
on his person. Foul play is like-
ly the cause of his death.
