Married—Rice^ Whitfield.
Among the Oklahomans who
arrived in the city on the Choc-
taw yesterday morning was Mr.
William H. Rice, of Norman, O.
T. Mr- Rice concluded that he
did not care to go on to Memphis
with the bulk of the excursion
party, and an event which oc-
curred later in the day furnishes
sufficient cause for his action.
Mr. Rice was engaged to be
married to Miss Georgia Whit-
field, daughter of Mrs. S. H. No-
lan of this city, and although no
day for the wedding had pre-
viously been set the young cou-
ple decided yesterday that they
would get married at once and
return to Norman on the excur-
sion. Accordingly the marriage
was solemnised at 4:30 p. m., at
the residence of Major S. H.
Nowlin, on Pulaski Height.
Rev. Gilbert Parkinson, pastor of
the Reform Presbyterian, per-
formed the ceremony in the pre-
sence of the family of Maj. Now-
lin. A reception took place at
the residence last night and a
large number of the family's
friends gathered to tender good
wishes and congratulations to Mr.
and Mrs. Rice.
Mr. Rice and bride will leave
today for their future home at
Norman, where the groom's
friends will be treated to a sur-
prise.—Little Rock (Ark ) Demo
crat.
Mr. and Mrs. Rice returned
home on Tuesday. Mr. Rice is
proprietor of the fruit stand, one
door east of Mayfield's. The
Transcript extends its best
wishes to the happy couple.
Attention, Band of Hope.
All members and exmembers of the

BIT HIS TOE'S EAR OFF.
John Bauner Arrested for Mayhem
—A Penetentiary Offense.
John Bauner, a negro living
with his wife and children three
miles east of Stella, was arrested
on Saturday by Deputy Sheriff
Will Newblock, on complaint of
his wife, charged with mayhem.
During a fight between the hus-
band and wife on Thursday
night, Bauner got the woman
down and chewed her ear until it
was almost entirely chewed off.
He languishes in jail, being un-
able to give bond. This offense
constitutes the crime of mayhem,
which is a penetentiary offense.
It was night when Mr. New-
block arrested the darkey, and
when he got him to town and to
a light he was paralyzed to find
that Bauner's face was deeply
pitted with smallpox scars, some
of them hardly healed. However,
he was reassured when it was
found that the negro had entire-
ly recovered from the disease and
I liad Wen well for two weeks or
more.
Corn Wanted.

From Homer Bocton to Ht> Sister,
Mrs. A. H. McCarntey, of
Moore.
Bingued, North Luzon, P. I.,
January 2d, 1900.
Diar Sistii:—I hope you have all
bad a Jolly time during holiday*. I
know you muat have had plenty of ice
and anow and that you enjoyed Cbriat-
naa Immensely, alao that I miaaed a
bully time by not being preaent. Yet
1 am very proud of my firat Cbrlatmaa
In tbe Phlllplnea. Juat think while you
were ablverlng around under your flan-
nela and fura 1 waa too warm for com-
fort without even a coat. Presently 1
will tell you how 1 spent Xmaa and
what I had for dinner; now I muat go
back to where Claud left me about the
lat of December when the regiment
atarted on the forced march north. I
had been bothered with dysentery for
ten days and three daya of forced
marching knocked me out, so for tbe
first time since I have been in the aer-
vice of "Uncle Sam" 1 was not able for
duty. You may guess it was pretty
bitter to aee my company march on and
leave me, knowing that If they would
only wait for two daya 1 could go along.
Three daya later I joined 70 Mukabebe
Bcouta(I am alao scout and sharpshooter)
that were going agalnat a company of
Nlga (Insurgenta) In tbe mountaina to
tbe eaat of ua. Tbe Nlga retreated, but
we took possession of their town and
feaated on rice, chickens, sugar, cocoa-
nuta and bananas. We waited for rein-
forcements, and then with thirty-five
Americans and 200 Mackabebes we
atarted north. The second day out the
Nigs gave us the slip and got In our
rear. The Mackabebes went hack and
captured them while we pushed on
hoping to reach Col. Hare in time for
the general 'round up. Three days
later we received orders to join Co. K.,
then at Narabakon who were expecting
an attack and needed reinforcements.
It waa with this Co. K. 1 spent Xmas.
I was on outpost duty at the time.
Plenty of natives were around all the
time asking me what we did in America
for Xmas and when I explained that it
was very cold there with lots of snow
and ice and that we gave many pre-
aenta and big dinners they listened very
attentively, then aolemnly said "Amer-
icana are very rich." For dinner I had
beef, eggs, coffee, applea, banannas and
hardtack. I will give you a descrip-
tion of the people as I have seen them
from Manila to thia place at another
time.
When the order came for Co. A'e.
men to join their company we moved
north with twelve men at Santa, An
Irishman and myself got left behind.
Tbe natives said the others had gone
on to Rangued. We hired two moun-
tain nigt to take us up tbe river on a
raft. Tbe scenery was fine. All the
way was through the mountains. At
night we camped in a deep canon.
After a supper of rice the natives lay
down to sieep and Murphy and I gave
our guns a look over to see that they
were in gjod order, for we expected a
little fun before morning as we could
see camp fires up the canon, but guess
they had all of the 33rd they wanted as
we were not molested. Next morning
we had no more rice, so we took an
early atart. At about 10 o'clock we
atruck aome Indians. They wear long
hair like our Indians, but are better
looking The 2nd chief could speak a
little Spanish. I explained to him that
we had missed our breakfast, so be in-
vited me to tie the raft to tbe shore and
go with him to hta village, about two
mtlea off in the mountains. After firing
off my gun to show him if be attempted
treachery I could destroy him with
"little thunder" we started up the
mountain, following a little foot-path
The Irishman did not want to go, but
was more afraid to stay. He came along
behind me muttering "Boston, me bye,
lta into a trap Oi am aure yez be a lad-
lu' of me, for phats to hinder them
long-haired cannibals from boiling us
up there in der murderous village, wid
not a soger bye for many a moiie."
The up hill climb made us puff pretty
bard, but the sight we saw after reach-
ing the village repaid us a hundred
times for our trouble. They beat a
kind of drum to call the tribe together.
They gave me a seat of honor by the
chief and Murphy by the 2nd chief. I
could jabber a few words of Spanish so
tbe old chief and I had a great pow-
wow. I happened to have with me two
$10 gold pieces, I explained to him
that they were American money. He
aald I was very rich. He then brought
his daughters out for me to look at.
Tbey were finely formed, and while
they are dark they are not so dark as
you would imagine. Will eay they are
no darker than the half breed American
Indians, so you will understand they
are very good looking.
But what caused me to catch my
breath and wonder (was I dreaming)
was the great strings of pearl and am-
ber beads hanging from their necks
and wound around their arms. I had
read in bookB of such things, but
thought it all fakes, but here I was see-
ing it with my own eyes. When the
feast was spread it was in platters on
the floor. Wcate with our fingers. The
feast consisted of rice, meat (cooked)
and raw eggs. They wanted me to
stay with them, but as I waa working
for your Uncle Sam I gueaaed It waa
time to moale on. They bid ua gooj
bye after I bad promlaed to come back
aoon, and tbe chief went with aa to oar
raft, giving us a liberal supply of raw
•OT*. aome of which we devoured to
ahow that we were bia frlenda. The
eating of raw eggs among them seems
to have a relation similar to the pipe of
peace of our American ladians.
One very Interesting happening I
bave neglected to mention war bow we
kindled a fire, the night In the canon
when we stopped to camp. The first
thing Murphy wanted was a fire. He
collected wood and everything was
looking favorable. I strolled off a few
steps to get a little more w >od and
when I returned Murphy sat with both
hands In his pockets while his face wore
auch a look of comical despair that I
had to lay my wood down very quickly
and for the next five minute* I could do
nothing but roar with laughter. I lie
trouble wa he had discovered that we
were out of matches. I will not repeat
all the comical things he said, but leave
them to your imagination. I finally
got him to close his rattle trap and hit
down beside me and sen what the
natives would doabouta fl-e. v\> were
not kept waiting long for as goon as
they had the raft arranged for the
night without asking about a match
(Indeed I doubt If they had ever seen
one) they got two pieces of dry Bamboo
and by rubbing one across the. other
aoon bad a fire started,
I only wish i knew how to use a
Kodac. I could take some snap {.tints
that would interest you. Fur example,
juat imagine a snap shot of us two guys
coming up the river with two natives
who wore the next thing to no clothing.
1 myself would have been u curiosity.
Here iaa pen picture of me. I was bare
footed and had been for about one
month. I bad no way of seeing u bar
ber so my beard was pretty lung and
my hair looked as if it bad gone to
aeed. An old greasy hat, a chirt and a
pair of greasy ragged pants rolled up al-
most to ray knees—that was all the out-
fit I had, except my gun and belts. I
could write for hours and hours If only
I bad the time and paper, but have
other letters to write and as \<>u all
read my letters It will be tbe same as
one long letter any way. I have re-
ceived only nine letters on the Island,
the latest is October 24. Only put a two
stamp cent on your letters. That will
bring them through allright. Love to
all. Your brother.
