the most famous of English artists , and bound
in exquisite taste in a combination of white
and blue cloth , with gilt edges and ornaments ,
and is sold only by the publisher direct ( not by
booksellers ) , at approximately the actual cost
of manufacture by the 100,000-19 cents a copy ,
plus 6 cents postage , if by mail. His object is
to of his- into

certainly could choose no more excellent vol
ume to please the people of good taste. His

considerably over one hundred pages in size , is
sent post-paid for tno cents. xVddress JOHN

TAHI.EQUAH , I. T. . Get 13. An at
tempt was made yesterday morning' to
capture the notorious Ned Christie , at
his home in the Caney mountains , fif
teen miles east of here.
The attacking- party was composed
of Deputy United StaCcs Marshaln
Milo Creekmore. David Husk , Charles
Copeland and D. C. Dye , with three
a-.des.
The house was surrounded and the
presence of the oflicers was unknown
until the call for surrender was made.
The only answer was a volley of
bullets , one of which struck John
Fields in the neck , inflicting a mortal
xvound , .and another struck Joe
Bowers , disablinghim. . When it was
found that Christie would not sur
render the officers then warned the
women and children to come out of
the house , which they did and were
placed under arrest.
The marshals then set fire to the
outbuilding- hopes that the flames
would communicate to the house in
which Christie was taking- refuge , but
this plan failed. Dynamite was then
used , but the fuse failed to ignite.
Deputy Creekmore then hurried to
this city and sent the following tele-
ram to United States Marshal Yoes
at Fort Smith : "Send deputies to Ned
Christie's at once. We have him sur
rounded , but have not enough men.
John Fields and Joe Bowers , of our
party , are shot Fields will die. "
To which Marshal Yoes wired : "Have
wired everywhere for deputies. You
will have lots of help to-night. Hold
ihe fort by all means and get them
this time. "
Creek.nore also summoned a lot of
men , including the city marshal and
ligh sheriff. Christie's house is a veri
table fort , having been built specially
as a place of defense. It is a two story
log house , the upper part being pro
vided with loopholes.
In the fall of 1SS7 , while United
States Marshal Dan Maples was in the
city , he was shot down by an un
known person. Suspicion pointed to
Christie , who , at the time , was a mem
ber of the "Cabin gang , " and a reward
of § .100 was offered by the government
for his arrest.
Two previous attempts have been
made to affect his capture and both
times the United States government
failed and the reward was doubled.
Christie is supposed to have with
him Bear Paw and Walk-About , % vho
are both desperate murderers and
fugitives from justice.

The Horribly 3Iutlliteil ISoilyof a Womnix
up in : t lili : < 3ow uardcu.
GLASGOW , Oct. 13. A terrible crime
came to light in Glasgow yesterda } '
which calls the murders committed by
Deeming to mind. While some work
men were digging in the garden of a
mansion situated in the most fashion
able quarter of the city their spades
struck something that they at once
knew was neither rock nor earth.
When a few shovels of earth were re
moved they were horrified to find a
corpse.
The authorities were at once notified
and under their direction the earth
was removed and from its grave was
lifted the dismembered and disem-
bowi'Iod body of a woman. The police
at ne started an investigation , but
asj-ft have not established the identity
of th. v.-oman.
Th- family who occupied the house
were absent and the place was in
charge of a gardener named McEwen ,
Thinking he might be able to throw
some light on the mystery the police
looked for him and found that he had
suddenly disappeared. A thorough
examination made of the remains by
the physicians , officials and others ,
indicates that they were those of
a woman about 30 years of age.
The body presents a shocking
appearance and the slashing and rip
ping of the abdomen reveals the work
which "Jack the Ripper" performed
on the -wretched women whom he
killed. The authorities gave orders
that the garden should be thoroughly
searched for fie missing portions of
the woman's bo ly , and a force of men
were at once sei to work to dig all
over the place. Their labors met with
success. Pieces of the body were found
buried in four different holes and it is
thought that a further search will re
veal all the missing parts.
The inspectio i of the bedroom which
has been occup t-d by McEwen shows
many evidence of tbe terrible crime
with which he is charged The whole
apartment was in great disorder and
the overturned furniture which it con
tained proved conclusively that the
woman had resisted her assailant with
the utmost desperation and had
struggled fiercely to prevent the as
sassin from carrying out his murder
ous intentions.
