May Yohe Again held up and robbed three men near Independence Sunday and It has developed that the dead man was ono of the robbers. The negro did not reveal his identity and there was nothing about his clothing by which he might be Identified. There were rumors at Independence Thursday that the man belonged in Coffeyville or vicinity, but parties hero have failed to identify him. The Star says: "Bill Flake, a negro who runs a pool hall on East Main street, says that he thinks his name is Vann and that he lives about one and one-half miles east of Nowata, but he is not positive about it.

Flake says if this man is Vann that he knows one of his cousins in Coffeyville by the name of Kate Smith, wife of Pearl Smith. "Another colored man stated last evening that he believed the dead negro was from near Coffeyville, and that he was the same one who stole a horse from near there last week and brought it here for sale. "That the man has Indian blood in him is evidenced by his straight black hair and copper complexion. Ills companion is also said to have been a half-breed Indian and negro. Nothing has been seen of the latter since yesterday morning, when he was lost in the chase." lented, and in Marienbad, where the two met, the reconciliation became thorough.

The dead man was one of two men whom the sheriff and his deputies went out to arrest, having been informed that they were oiling a couple of revolvers.

Instead of costly fur, silk fringe may finish thu garment, and nothing is more fashionable than fringe this season. Trim the new floppy-brimmed Paris hat with a ruching of net, instead of a plume, and make a big rose of satin messaline for the side, to accompany the green velvet foliage arranged upon the left brm of the hat. Thus will the cost of a $90-odd Paris confection dwindle to about $2 for trimmings, and from $1.50 to $5 for the felt shape, according to the quality of felt selected.

Bill Nye was enthusiastic over the sport of fox hunting, and strongly recommended it to "young men whose parents have amassed large sums of money in the intellectual pursuit of hides and tallow." "Fox hunting," he wrote, "combines the danger and the wild tumultuous joy of the skating rink, the toboggan slide, the mush-and-milk sociable and the straw ride. For the young American nobleman whose ducal father made his money by inventing a fluent pill, or who gained his great wealth through relieving humanity by means of a lung-pad, a liver-pad, a kidney-pad or a foot-pad, fox hunting is first rate."

By strengthening the foundation any further gain in the inclination of the tower may be prevented.
