in the Creek Nation. She was then
in short dresses, and Cook himself
a mere lad. It was a case of love
at fir.,t r ight. The young people
agreed to marry when the fixed time
came, although they k'-'pt the secret
to them, elves. A year or4wo later
Cook was arrested for introducing
liquor iutb the Indian country, ta-
ken before the Fort Smith court and
given six months in jail there. Dur-
ing his incarceration he.experienced
a desire for reform, and when re-
leased he was made a po seman un-
der Deputy W. C. Smith. While
riding as a posseman in (.he Indian
country Cook rendered invaluable
service to the government, as he
knew every foot of the Territory
and the haunt.-: of different crimi-
nal", and for deeds of reckless brav-
ery he left his leaders behind.
About this tii e he wen' to the
parents of the girl to whom he was
engaged and told them that he and
Martha wanted to get married. The
old man swore that he would never
have for a son-in-law a man who
had ben jailed, and told Cook to
go about his business. The girl
stood by him and offered to marry
him secretly, but Cook's proud
Cherokee blood war up and he
swore that he would never marry
until he could do it openly and
above board.
He became desperate and cut
loose from Civilization, and shortly
after Dalton's death organized thc
new bafid that is now terrorizing
the Indian country arid driving thc
express companies from doing a
money order business in that coun-
try. The queerest part of it is that
the girl still sticks to Cook and
stems to think more of him than
ever. The old man has become
impressed with his ner^e and gave
his consent to the marriage about a
month ago. The marriage 'icense
was actually secured about a month
ago at Muskogee, and the marriage
was to have occurred the latter part
of last month, but a party of Creek
Indians who were 011 Cook's trail
crowded him so close that he had
to keep on thc move, and the mar-
riage had to be postponed. Since
then he has been more reckless than
ever.—Ex

The industrial and commercial
improvement which set in immedi
ately after the new tariff law became
operative continue , and the out-
look for business, according to the
accredited authorities, is most grat-
ifying. Both Dun's and liradstrect's
reviews for the week ended on
Thursday show an advance in all
lines. The clearing house opera-
tions increased throughout the coun-
try on an average of 1.2 per cent,
which, though small, is nevertheless
satisfactory.
In this city the improvement was
exceptionally great. In clearings
the increase was 19.5 per cent, as
compared with the corresponding
week last year, which is 18.3 per
cent above the average. The mer-
cantile business is reported as show-
ing more than average activity, while
the stock yards trade continues to
increase in volume with a regularity
that proves it is substantial and en-
during. The grain trade holds its
own admirably, and the manufac
turing industries are beginning to
show better life.
Tn bui! ling and real estate oper-
ations there has been an activity
without parallel outside of the boom
periods in the history of the citv
during the past week. There is a
I noticeable sti nets in values in real
estate which is thc naturi. 1 precurs-
er of an ad-sauce in prices that will
be on in the hear future. Building
operations will not be vigorous be-
fore s[ ring, but the indications are
that then they will he more exten-
sive than usual. Meantime it is
noticeable that fhe effect of reduced
tariff taxes is stimulating trade in
all directions. — Republic.

Yes, and half the big tally cift

source. Some day, uot far off,

CARE QF YOUNG TREFS.
By all means the most critical
period in the life of a fruit tree, or
similar hrub, is during the first
year after it has been transplanted
from the nursery, says Amatuer
Gardening. If properly cared for
daring this period it will generally
be fouiMl in gotfd condition in the
following spring, and annually
thereafter. On the other hand, if it
receives a check during thi first few
ucceeding its removal, it is liable
never Jo recover. '1 he first care,of
course, must b" for the foots.
I hese should be protected from ex-
cessive dryness, particularly during
any, period of drouth. For this pur-
pose mulching furnisles the best
protection. It may be put on
soon as the tree is set, but in any
case should be placed before the
ground becomes dry and baked. It
should extend somewhat further
from the trunk of the tree than the
roots are liable to reach, in order
that the smaller and tenderer fibers
may have protection. Artificial
watering is helpful in times of dry-
ness, but the expedient can never
fully take the place of natur-il mois-
ture of the soil. A careful lookout
during this time should be kept for
insect enemies, and if any appear
they should be promptly and effect-
ually removed by the most approved
means; but in any operations look-
ing to this end, care should be ta-
ken not to do the young wood any
injury which ma> possibly be avoid-
ed.
