aed to testify before the Federal grand jury in secret inquiry into the alleged Indian land frauds. The hearings will begin here next Tuesday. Walter R. Katon business associate

ot uovernor Haskell, was shown a dispatch today to the ' effect that 16 witnesses were coming from Hastings, Mich., to testify, but refused to make any comment. Mr. Katon was formerly a resident of Hastings and it is inferred the government will attempt to prove by these witnesses that Katon used them as "dummies" in making schedules for town lots in Muskogee in the years 1900 and 1001. Katon is secretary of the Indianola Contracting company, of which Governor Haskell is president, and which owns many town lots.

Thomas J. Study, city attorney, made a novel proposition in the

Wayne circuit court this morning. He propounded a motion before the court that court be adjourned to permit the court and the members of the bar to

go in search of John L. Rupe, the attorney, in a body. Mr. Study included in his motion that John F. Robbins be appointed captain of the paraders. The motion was made in the presence of the jury hearing the Jones case and a crowded court room. It was greeted with laughter and the judge raised his gavel as an indication the merriment must not continue. He did not act upon the motion. Suggested Hiring Barouche. The scene developed from an attempt on the part of Study to Induce Robbins to have the case of Scott vs. Null set for hearing one week from tomorrow. Mr. Robbins refused saying Mr. Rupe is associated in the case, and he (Robbins) did not know if the date would be satisfactory to Rupe. Study then suggested that Robbins hire a barouche and go out in search

of Rupe. He said he would do it but

couldn't pay for it. The telephone had

been used but Rupe could not be lo

cated. Witnesses in the case have been in court twice and each time a continuance was taken. The case had been

set for a hearing in each instance."

One of the witnesses is Mrs. Eliza

beth Fausler, who is 66 years old. She has been required to make the trip

from near Jacksonburg each time to

be disappointed by the idiosyncracies of the attorneys.

Richmond, Va., Jan. 22. In the sentencing at Farmville, this state, yesterday, of Marcus Lindsay and his

wife, a negress, to serve 18 years in the penitentiary, one of the most unique cases in the history of the state has developed. Lindsay is the son of a white woman, and. although he believed he had negro blood in his veins and associated with members of that race, the court held that he had enough Caucasian blood to be legally white. Lindsay recently was married to Sophy Jones, a negress, the widow of another negro, and has since lived with her. The two were indicted on the ground that Lindsay is a white man, who married a negress, and because Sophy married a white man. being a negress, the law prohibiting inter-marriages between the races. The judge declared, however, that while he was forced to pronounce sentence, he would petition the governor to pardon the prisoners, but on condition that all marital relations between them should cease.

Advance copies of the "Life of Las Casas," which is the work of Francis

Augustus MacNutt, formerly of this

city have been received here by his

Richmond friends.

The book is a study of the great

friend of the Indians, and is handsome-; ly published by Putnam's. A com-! panion to it will soon be forthcoming entitled the "Life of Cortes." On this subject Mr. Mp.c Nutt is particularly well qualified to write inasmuch as he has recently edited the so-called "Letters of Cortes." Mr. Mac Nutt is recognized as an authority on these subjects by the leading reviews of the "world, notably the London Athenaeum. It is well to mention In the latter connection that the Americans who are reviewed in this publication are few and far apart His Romantic Rise. The romantic rise of this Richmond man to world wide recognition not only as a diplomat and traveler, but as an author, is too well, known locally to need repetition. It will be remembered that Mr. Mac Nutt spent several months here this fall engaged in reading proof for his forthcoming books, after which he re

turned to his home in the Austrian Tyrol, from which he will later go to his residence In Rome, the Palazzio

Pampillio for the winter season.
