Mention was made in yester
day's daily of a fight between Deck
Tittle and a colored man named
Tat Hawkins which occurred just
before the daily was put to press.
Xne particulars in tne case as
best we can learn are about as
follows:
Deck Tittle passed a colore
woman by the name of Nettie Hill
on the street near the crossing of
the Katy track and made some re
mark to which the woman took
exceptions and struck Tittle. At
this juncture Tat Hawkins inter
fered in the woruans behalf and a
fight begun. Parties who witness-
ed the fight say that each man
threw a rock that would have re-
sulted fatally had they not gone
wide of the mark. Tittle struck
Hawkins in the back of the heal
with a lump of coal drawing con-
siderable blood; he also cut a gash
in Hawkins' arm with a knife.
Tittle's face shows that he got
several severe licks.
The woman received a knife
wound across the abdomen which
necessitated about twenty-five
stitches by the doctors. This
morning the woman is reported as
being not dangerously cut.
Tittle was taken into custody
soon after the fight yesterday and
will be held for a hearing.
llie "Kiot act" must be read to
the colored contingent living out
side the corporate limits but who
heretofore have fraudulently cast
their votes in the election for city
officers. Every qualified elector
who resides within tha corporate
limits has' a right to cast his vote
and have it fairly counted but out-
siders have no encb rights and the
Times serves notice on all such
right now that every mother's son
of those who try to cast a fraudu-
lent vote will get into very serious
trouble. Muskogee Times.
In Hinds county Missippi over
100 people have died with small-
pox in the past six weeks. Some
days the death rate was so large
that coffins could not be had for
all and rude caskets were made of
rails. In a few instances whole
families were swept from the earth.
General Cronje has surrendered
and Ladysmith has capitulated
but the editors of the two Clare-
more papers are still after the
Cherokee medical board and signs
of peace are apparently as remote
as ever.

thinks the Democratic party of
Muskogee showed its wisdom in
nominating Dew M. Wisdom for

is very apparent.

The Man With an Ad.
There's the man with the pick and the man
with the hoe
And the man with the horny spade
But the man with tno "ad" is the man ever
glad
For he collars his share of the trade.
There's the man with the hat and tno man

And the man with the automobile
But whot'er east or west in an ''ad" will

Is the man at tho top of the deal.
Seeds.
Biliousness and constipation are
seeds out of which spring niary of the
diseases that afflict the human body
Sound judgment would demand the
immediate removal of this condition
before it developes something more
troublesome and difficult to cure.
Prickly Ash bitters is a reliable cure
for constipation and disorders of a
similar character. It not only
thoroughly empties and purifies the
bowels but strengthens the bowel
channels and regulates the liver and
stomach hence it performes a radical
cure. Hold by Chapman & Briggs.
