RAVISHED
Two Little School Girls In His
Dugout.
News reached Weatherford last
Saturday of the rape of two little
daughters of Frank Long, a far-
mer, who resides twelve miles
north of this city, on last Mon-
day.
The crime was committed by a
young man named George Fer-
branche, a school teacher who
filed on a claim recently in that
vicinity. He enticed the girls
into an old dugout neir where
they were herding their father's
cattle, and the crime was com-
mitted there. The father heard
of it and armed himself with a
Winchester, and chased the ruv-
isher all over the neigborhood,
but the latter succeeded in mak-
ing his escape and it is feared
that he has left the country.
The victims are but children,
and the community is greatly-
wrought up ove- the occurrence.
OLD TURKEY
Dislikes to Part With Her Cash
Population.
Abraham George and Dahard
Oudie, natives ol Turkey, but
living at Perry, appealed to Del-
egate Flynn after declaring their
intention of becoming citizens of
the United States, asking him to
assist them in escaping the pay-
ment of the $5 head tax levied
annually by the Turkish govern-
ment. They said that if the tax
were not paid it would be levied
against the property of relatives
in Turkey and collected. Secre-
tary John Hay, replying to a
letter from Delegate Flynn, said:
"Under the Turkish law on
January 19, 18<>9, Ottoman sub-
jects leaving Turkey subsequent
to that time without the consent
of the sultan are regarded and
treated by the Turkisn govern-
ment as Ottoman subjects, even
though they may have acquired a
foreign allegiance. It will thus
be seen that Turkey does no ex-
patriation, and hence, having en-
tered into no treaty of naturaliza-
tion with the United States, does
not recognize the citizenship in
this country of former subjects
who were naturalized after 1869
without the consent of the sultan.
As George and Oudie are not
American citizens, having only
declared their intention to be-
come such, this government can
do nothing in support of their
petition."

All in the Family.
Mose Asbury, an ex-Creek coun-
cil member, living near Okmul-
gee. took unto 1 imself a second
wife the other day and his son
celebrated the occasion by getting
married to his father's wife's
daughter, and m t to be outdone

ried the daughter of his stepfath-
er. The weather is too warm
for us to figure out what kin

A late dispatch from Washing-
ton conveys the impression that
Postmaster McCoy is making a
great effort in his fight for re-
appointment. All he needs is the

A Big Mistake
Will be made if you get a loan
on your farm before figuring with

you a lower rate and better terms
than you can get elsewhere. His

Col. W. M. Dodd, a political
wheel horse in Woodland town-
ship, was a pleasant caller at the
World office last Tuesday. Will
says his wheat crop was not as
bad as it might have been.
Editor Garner domes the alle-
gation that he has changed his
political faith. He swears b\ all
that is good and bad that he con-
tinues to train with t'u Populist-
undemocratic forces.
W. A. Alkire has resigned his
l>osition at the Pabst Ice Plant
anil re-opened his bl;u ksmith
shop on West Noble. Mr. Alkire
is recognized as a first-class me-
chanic.
Miss Carrie Durlingame has
gone to Chicago to spend the
summer. While absent she will
take a course in the musical de-
partment of the Chicago univer-
sity.
Last Sunday Guthrie was a dry
town. Orders had been issued
to every saloon in the city to close
at 11 o'clock Saturday night ard
remain in that condition until
Monday. Those who failed to
lay in a supply of cooling bever-
ages were compelled to partake
of soda pop and other minor
drinks.
G. W. Bruce has purchased the
Odd Fellow paper of the Indian
Territory and will issue it in con-
nection with the "Oklahoma Odd
Fellow." It is needless to say
that Bruce will give both terri-
tbries an excellent paper. He
knows how.
Last Tuesday night was a reg-
ular scorcher. The wind from
the south was of the hot air va-
riety. It is not often that Okla-
homa people are subjected to such
nights.
The Shawnee potato crop is
being shipped to market at the
rate of fifty carloads a day. The
prevailing price is about forty
cents a bushel. It is estimated
that the spring crop will be 1,500
carloads, or 75,000 bushels. The
farmers here raise two crops a
year.
Church Struck.
During the severe thunder-
storm Tuesday morning lightning
struck the belfry tower of the
South Methodist church, tearing
most of the shingles off, and de-
stroying the siding to the ground.

doubtless saved the building from

learn that there is at U.«-t one dre.ule.i dis.-aso
that science has been able to cure in ail Us
stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure known to the med-
ical fraternity. Catarrh bein^ a constitutional
disease, requires a constitutional treatment.
Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destrovinp the foundation
of the disease, and giving the patient strength
by building up tho constitution and assisting
nature in (loinp i1* work. The proprietors have
so much faith in its curative powers, that they
offer One Hundred Pol irsforanv cast* that it
fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials.
