Talesman Morton is 76 years old. j
When under examination he. said he j
ak u elvll war veteran, a life long

(that at present he "might be colled a

Morton admitted that he was a sub- I
perlber to the Appeal to Reason.
I think the onions on the one side j
and capital on the other are causing j
all this commotion," he said.
"Capital causes labor, but I don't
think my politics should enter Into it.
There are republicans, socialists and
labor men In the jury box." ^

"But are you in sympathy now

"Certainly 1 am," replied the tales-

just like a dog, glad to do his slight-
est bidding and thankful for even his
slightest word of praise, afraid to
iross the master whom she knew
would beat her unmercifully, on the
slightest provocation und then linally
left to live the best she might, this
little girl wife Sunday afternoon at-
tempted to end It all.
Hiding her face from tho imiiiisl-
tlvo public eye this little woman
wulketl the streets of Muskogee all
Sunday morning, never thinking of
the heavy rain that was soaking her
clothes, only looking, hunting, pray-
ing that she might llnd her husband,
that by some unforseen chance he
might have decided to stay at the last
minute and that she might llnd him.
Divides to ICiid It All.
Ilope gone at last she returned to
the Wood hotel where they had been
staying, hurried to tho room and
threw herself on the bed, heart-
broken at last.
the following note, closed Iter eyes
and murmuring pleas for her hus-
bands return drained a bottle of
colroform.
"Forgive mo l'or doing this in your
(hotel. I have no money. I can't live
without hint. I can't beg for money."
The landlady when Bhe entered tho
room about live o'clock Sunday even-
ing found the note. The doctors
aud tho police were called and for
hours they all worked frantically to |
bring life back into the frail, bruised
body. At llrst only the slightest
movement of the heart could be dis-
tinguished but the hard work told
and the boating became stronger.
Last everting she was sitting up in
her bed glad she had not been suc-
cessful In taking her llfo.
She says she had been working
hard all last week although she was
too sick to be out of her bed. Her
husband had been angry and out of
humor all week because he had been
compelled to work, himself, during
the last four weeks. Before that for
the last two years she had worked
alone and he had taken all the
money.
Sunduy morning he had set the
alarm clock far ahead so she might
arise early and make the flro and
have the room warm for him when
he dressed. She did as he bade her
but she was very 111 and she asked
him why ho set the clock ahead and
made her arise so early.
He became angry and struck her.
Then sho did something she had
never done before, she threw her
shoo at him. He became enraged,
threw her down on tho bed and
pounded her on the sides of the head
until she was almost Insensible. Then
left, went to the Katy baggage
room where their trunk had been
taken preparitory to their departure
for Tulsa, took bis clothes and left
by another train.

Court of Appeals Hands Down
Decision Favoring
Them.
The United States circuit court of
appeals has 'affirmed the decision of
the. lower court In the famous Grltts-
Muskrat ease which has been before
the courts stneo early In 1906, ac-
cording to a telegram received yes-
terday by W. W. Hastings of Tahle-
quah, attoriley for the Cherokee na-
tion, from Assistant Attorney General
Chas. W. Cobb.
Tho decision holds that congress
has full power to legislate as in the
of April 2#. 1906, better known
as the "too lato baby ease" 'f'he ac-
tion which was recently ruled upon
by the court of appeals, was broupht

The women in whose homes the
games have been played, delied the
captain to stop them, after he had
sent detectives around wurning them
to stop.
"I'll liav;e all the patrol wagons at
tho station in service today." ho said,
"and If 1 llnd any games they will
be raided and the players hauled to
tho station.
"I intend to break up these games.
In some of them the limit has been
so steep that the husbands have been
seriously ambarrassed In making
good their wives' losses.
Fifty women, members of a club
which was giving a bridge whist
party with prizes of china, were In-
terrupted in their game and the club
rooms cleared by the poUce late to-
day.
