se hte cB ii i } t } | FIGHT WITH BANDITS. Two More Members of the Cook Gang Killed. Sapulpa, 1 T., Aug. 2—-The no. torious Cook gang were surrounded in the bouse of Bill Province, four teen miles west of here, at eight o'clock this morning by United States marshals aud a desperate dattle ensued, which resulted in the capture of Berryhill and the killing of Lon Gordou and Henry Munson of the gang, the three remaining of the desperadoes making their escape. One of the marsbale wus shot in the fight and severely wounded. About 200 shots were fired. The warshals are in kot pursuit of the gang and expect to report their capture ina few houre. On July 18 this gang held up the ’Frisoo train at Red Fork, I. T., also the agent at the same place. The booty secured ou that occasion was small,owing to the presence of mind of Chapman, the express messenger, who threw the money behind some boxes, the robbers failing to find it. Chapman is a brother of the mes- senger who was killed at Mound Valley, Kan., last fall in resisting the efforts of bandits to rob the train. state the prominent county officials are elected, like sheriffs, etc., which will serve to create enough interest in the cloee districts to bring demo- crate to the polls. In the secure districts he fears too much reliance may be placed on assured majorities and democrats may stay at home on election day, as was the case in the recent judical election in the Quincy, Ill, district. It is with the intention of srous ing interest that theacticg chairman after consultation with members of the party here and at home, has de cided to send the strongest attrac tions into democratic strongholds. CHICAGO HAS A BLAZE. Forty Acres Barned Over- Chicago, Ill, Aug. 1.—The lum ber district of Chicago was to night visited by one of the most disastrous fire and the loss will probably foct up between $1,200,000 and $1,500.- 000 although it will be twenty-four hours before it can be estimated with accuracy. The burned district is about six squares from east to west and three from north to south. The greater part of the district bounded by the Blne Island avenue, Lincoln street: On July 31 this gang robbed the bank at Chandler, Ok., and escaped by killing one man and wousding others. Inthe fight Elmer Lucas, one of the gang, was shot and cap tured, and is now in jail. There maining three are Bill Cook, Chero- kee Bill and Sherman Balling. Removal.

Washington, D.C.,Aug. 1.—Judge Joseph Holt died at bis residence in this city today. Hie death was due indirectly toa full sustained a few days ago, to which he paid little at- tention. Judge Holt had along and dis- tinguished career, but is chiefly remembered for his participation es Judge Advocate in the court martial which tried Mrs. Suratt and the other conspirators executed for the assassination of President Lincoln He was born in Breckinridge Coun ty, Kentucky, in January, 1807. As a lawyer and as a Democratic orator in early life he was very conspicuous. President Buchanan appointed him Commisioner of Patents in 1857; in 1859 he became Postmaster-Gen eral and at the outbreak of secession, when John B. Floyd withdrew from Mr. Buchanan's Cabinet to go into the Confederacy, Judge Holt assum ed ckarge of the War Department. President Lincoln made him Judge Advocate General of the Army in 1862, and on the establisbment of the Bureau of Military Justice in} 1864, placed him at the head with | the title of Brigadier General. He favored Lincoln's emaucipation pro- clamation, and also the enlistment of colored troops. He was breveted Mejor-General in the United States Army in March, 1865. WILL SPEAK IN MISSOURI. Mr. Stevenson and Mr. Crisp to Ad- dress Meetings. Acting Chairman John Carroll of the democratic state central com-! mittee of Missouri said to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch Washington correspondent that the leading out- side speakers,such as Speaker Crisp, Vice President Stevenson, Chairman Wilson and Representative Bailey of Texas, will be assigned to the heayi- est democratic districts in Missouri during the campaign. Mr. Crisp will make one speech in Macon coun ty, probably at Macon City, and one at Kansas City. He will make three speeches,but the third place bas not been decided. Where the president will speak has not been settled. He has not indicated how much time he can spare, and til that is known uo ar- vice rangement cau be made. Mr. Wilson will make ove speech at Kansas City Bailey will speak at seve al points on bis way to Texas. will be prepared iu the course of ten | days. In deciding to place the vis-| itors in the heaviest democratic dis. tricts, Mr. Carroll proceeds on the Tbe schedule! the river and Ashland avenue was burned over and forto acres of lum ber yards are now nothing but smok ing embers. At 11 o'clock the fire was stil! burning fiercely with all proba bility of blazing for twelve hours more. Itis extremely difficult to obtain an estimate of the lveses but the following are about corrcei: S. K. Martin company, $50,000 Per ley Lowe & Co. $145,000; Wells French company, $500,000 Shoe maker & Highee $125,000, John Spry lumber company $25,090; totul $1.595,000. We have seen a number of watch chains ornamented with a pretty charm in the shape of a watch case opener which obviates the use of a knife or finger nail to open the watch. They are sent free on appli cation by the Keystone Watch Case company of Philadelphia The Keystone Watch Case Com pany is the largest concern in the world. Its capacity is 2500 watch cases per day. It manufactures every description of gcase, but is great specialty is the most popular of watch cases, the Jas. Boss geld filled. These are equal in beauty in wear to solid gold—white they cost only about one kalf as much.

She will continue her work on the Pacific coast. —Baltimore has a blind boatman His boat was stolen by some worthless fellows the other day and subsequently abandoned and picked up.

Ar- mour, of Chicago, that a few months ago the grain dealers got up a corner, hoping to squeeze him His own granaries were full, and they refused to let him have a square inch of space in their elevators. Mr. Armour had thirty days in which to find place for three million bushels of wheat. Ac- cordingly he sent for his builder, told him what he wanted, and in twenty- eight days the largest and finest grain elevator in Chicago had been erected, and the grain was stored in it. —It is well known that the ezar of Russia is a man of enormous strength.

It is not all used, by the way, by children and foolish women. Dent- ists often recommend chewing gum for the teeth, and physicians prescribe it sometimes as an aid to digestion, be- cause it excites the action of the sali- vary glands. Large drug houses keep gum in answer to this demand. —One of the sights of China is the antique bridge of Suen-Tchen-Fow, 3,500 feet longand twenty feet wide. It has upon each side fifty-two piers upon which huge stones are laid, some of them twenty feet long.

Such experiments have been made by the Michigan Stove Co at Chicago. The success of the test will undoubted- ly arouse interest in iron manufaetur- ing circles. —Congressman Blair, of New Hamp- shire, spends more of his time in the senate chamber than he does in the house. He does not feel at home in the busy atmosphere of the house, can- not accustom himself to its way, so he goes over to his old senate haunts, where he feels moreat home. He wan- ders about the senate chamber hour after hour, and talks to democratic senators more than to those on the re- publican side. —The Woman's Christian Temper- ance union was organized in New York state twenty years ago, with twelve hundred members.
