Tbe Indian Territorial Pbarma
jceutical association opened its fifth
lannual session in this city today.

While the attendance is numeri-
fcally limited there is an air of
business about the meeting which
leaves an impression of good re-
sults to follow.
! The initial meeting was called to
order this morning by J. R. Shee-
han vice president E. P. White
Secretary being in his proper
place. Committees were appoint

receive attention being the elec
tion. The public are invited to be
present at all meetings and there
have been visitors present at all
the segeions. lomorrow the vis
iting druggists are to have a day in
the woods and if anything is lacK-
injr to make it pleasant it will be

factor-lactotum of the occasion and
his friends know he is equal to all
emergencies
Part of Creek Chiefs Message. 1
The opening of the land office at
this place and the selections ol
preliminary allotments by tbe
Creek citizens at this time is re-
carded as unfortuate by the chief
becaue as he says "many of the
less intelligent citizens ot the na
tion are likely to be induced by
the money paid down by the cat
tlemen and their agents beeking
to craze cattle in the nation to
select allotments which they really
do not want."
The old chief cannot under
stand whv the secretary of the in
terior refused to approve the cub
tomary and annual act of the Creek
council appropriating $40jO.UO
out of the funds of the nation for
its 270 helpless and indigent citi
zens. Regarding this matter be
says: "As small as is the amount
it would relieve many very press
ing wants and. bring sunshine to
these unfortunate indigents. Why
the representatives of a chnstam
nation like the United States
would adopt repressive meaures
towards thoBe who Yfith their own
means are willing and trying to
help the helpless is I must con
feBs. not entirely clear to me
He recommended that the
amount be re-appropriated and
that the act be sent to President
McKinley for his approval. Mas

The Katy Flyer.
HPl f r CTfl r P" Phos Pho Ferrine the ideal drink
Last night with swish and acllckety-
clack.
And a light like the blarlug sun.
Somo wondrous thing sped o'er the track;
Just a flash and then It was gone.
I thought 't was a thing from Arabian nights.
Not a creature of steel and fires
But a traveling man who'd seen the sights
Remarked "That's the Katy t Iyer.
The fastest train when she strikes her gait
Throughout the glorious west.
Good train? Why. sure it's never late.
And equipped throughout with the best.
"You can leave the city on Michigan's Lake.
In ao elegant Wagner car
And reach Galveston on the bay.
With scarcely a joltor Jar."
"When it conies to covering mile on mile.
In an off-hand sort of way
Tbe Katy Flyer' you can bet your pile
Is the best thing that comes this wy."

Murdered Saturday morning
about 2 o'clock when all nature
was slumbering and the sweet
sleep of health and youth was over
the beautiful form oi Miss Ossie
Butler she lying under the roof
of her father J. C. Butler at the
home farm eight miles east of Si-
loam Springs near Gallatin an
unknown assassin sneaked to her
bed side and with a big heavy two-
sided ax dealt the damsel a mighty
blow which almost severed her
head from her body striking a
second blow which left a big gash
a. little higher up on the head.
Death was almost instant. Siloam

Thus far m the deliberations of
the school board there has been a
commendable absence of apparent
axes to grind. The chief purpose
in the establishment of the schools
we afe to have is not to furnish
someone's daughter or cousin or
aunt with a job as teacher but to
furnish the young folks of the city
with an education. Let's be sure
we start right and not load up
with kipfolka and pets.
