WakuUk Siberia Sept. 5. Delails
have just reached here of a revolting
ca e of cannibalism among tbe nor-
niailie tribes of Lainuts living on the
River Korkodin in extreme North-
western Siberia. One of the nomads
t.ade desperate by hunger devoured
the bodies of his brother's wife and
four children. A Mrty of tnnters
came upon the deserted encampment
found the remains of the bodies and
reported the case. There was no ves-
tige of food on the premises. The
brother's body was not found and it
is not known whether he was eaten
or wandered away and perished in the
snow. The nomad tribes of this re-
gion pass a precarious existence and
similar instances of hardships and
cannibalism are often brought to light
when the melting of the Siberian
snows make travel possible.
THE EEWUSKBBUW
BBiSSS OUT THE COIN
Muskogee Okla. Sept. 8. When
the advocates of the Oklahoma hank
guaranty law passed the law they
claimed that it would bring forth from
its hiding and place in circulation a
vast .amount of money which was hid
den away in private places and had
been there long before the panic came
on. One of the finest Illustrations of
the correctness of this theory occurred
at Ardmore a few days ago.
A farmer who lives within a few
miles of Ardmore came into one of
the guaranteed banks and after asking
some searching ques'ions of the bank-
er relative to the operation of the
guaranty law and after satisfying him-
self thai his money would be abso-
lutely protected he produced a small
package wrapped in coarse brown pa
per inside which was wrapped $500
In gold. He poured the money out
on the cashier's table and as he did
so remarked that it was the first time
he had seen a dollar of it for ten
years. He had the money wrapped
up In the same package that length
of time.
When it was explained to him that
if he had kept the money out at in-
terest all the time he had it hidden
sway it would have doubled itself he
replied that he did not care as much
about it increasing in value as he did
about its safety.
PUBLIC WEIGHER.
Following is the new law prescrib-
ing the duty and powers of the pub-
lic weigher:

THE ORIGIN OF WOMAN.
According to a Hindoo legend this
is the proper origin of woman :
Twashtrl the god Vulcan of the Hin-
doo mythology created the world but
on his commencing to create woman
he discovered that for man he had
exhausted all his creative materials
and that not one solid element had
been left. This of course greatly
perplexed Twashtrl and caused him to
fall Into ta profound meditation. WThen
he arose from It he proceeded as fol-
lows: He took
The roundness of the moon.
The undulating curve of the se'-
pent. The graceful twist of the creeping
plant.
The light shivering of the grass
blade and the slenderness of the wil-
low. The velvety softness of the flow-
ers. The lightness of the feather.
The gentle gaze of the doe.
The frolicsomeness of the dancing
sunbeam.
The tears of the cloud.
The Inconstancy of the wind.
The timidity of the hare.
' The vanity of the peacock.
The hardue.srf of the diamond.
The cruelty of the tiger.
The heat of the fire.
The chill of the snow.
The cackling of the parrot.
The cooing of the turtle dove.
All these he mixed together and
formed a woman.
And he presented her to the ninn.
POINTED PARAGRAPHS.
Hungry poets are not satisfied with
empty honors.
The less a man says the more
guessing his wife has to do.
It takes an experienced elevator boy
to let a man down easy.
The only way to crush an egotist
is to pay no attention to him.
When oue good turn begets an-
other we shall have perpetual mo-
tion. The man who jumps at conclusions
seldom lands where he expects to.
It's easy to reason with a man after
you have staked him to a good din-
ner. The pawnbroker acts as timekeeper
for many a man who fights hard
luck.
According to an old Indian tradition
t he chief end of man Is the one with
the scalp.
A man has grounds for divorce If
his wife refuses to l.elp him with the
housework.
A professional gambler enjoys meet-
ing an amaiei r who knows all about

Shea city attorney filed yesterday
and today an order was obtained from
Judge Brown at Virata restraining

its new rates into effect or refusing to
furnish service at the old rate. .

SHERIFF CORRECTS MISTAKE.
Editor Daily Express:
I notice in your issue of Aug. 31
where Deputy Sheriff Tolleson was
I drinking in Chickasha and was taken
before a court of inquiry; also stating
he was from Stephens county. This
Is all a mistake as Mr. Tolleson Is
a deputy sheriff from Jefferson county
instead of Stephens and was not
drunk but assisting me in securing
some evidence. M. B. Louthan
Sheriff.
