~The best way to warm poultry is by
giving them something to do. So keep

Crazy Snake's Band Has Broken Up
into Small Groups and Are Being
Pursued by Deputy Sheriffs and Sol-
diers—Numerous Rumors of Engage-
ments—Crazy Snake Surrounded.
Oklahoma City, Okla., March 30.—A
detachment of Crazy Snake's band of
belligerent Indians was surrounded
by deputy sheriffs near Crazy Snake's
home and a lively battle ensued, More
than 200 shots were fired and one In-
dian was killed. Eight Indians were '
captured and the remainder fled, with |
the deputies in pursuit.
There were about fifteen Indians in
the band, and they had taken refuge
in a house. The deputies had tracked
them for some distance. i
Advancing from all sides, the posse
fired a volley at the frail house. The
Indians rushed out, scattered among
the trees and made a valiant defense.
The posse, firing steadily, advanced
and routed the band. None of those
captured is seriously injured, but it
is said that a number of other Indians
were hit wilh bullets,
Chitto Harjo (Crazy Snake) is sur-
rounded in the North Canadian bot-
toms near Pierce. Three hundred mili-
tiamen, cowboys and deputy sheriffs
are closing in on him and his cap:
ture is expected.
Crazy Snake's band apparently has
broken into numerous small groups. It
seemed at nightfall that each Indian
was trying to accomplish his own es-
cape without regard for the grand
dreafns of the chieftain to realize
which they were called together Sun-
day by the smoke of signal fires. All
efforts at organized resistance seemed
to have been dropped.
The militiamen seemed well able to
cope with this latest phase of the sit- |
uation, however. They, too, scattered
in bands, invaded the hilly wooded '
region of the Creek nation in a deter- |
mined effort to hunt down both lead-
ers and members of the war party.’
The wisdom of this policy at once be-:
came evident, for very soon the sol
diers had captured eight members of
Crazy Snake's forces, one of them a
sub-chief, |
There are numerous rumors of en-
gagements here and there, with a vary-
ing number of fatalities. One story |
was that a posse of farmers near Che-
cotah fought a large band of negrn
renegades and killed twenty. This and
similar reports cannot be confirmed.
A disquieting condition exists through-
out the tronbled region, however, and
almost anything in the way of a fight
would not be surprising.
London Hears Attempt Was Made
to Kill ex-President.
London, March 30.—A dispatch to

Thieves Probably Got $50,000 In Cur
rency and Checks.
Georgetown, Ky., March 30.—A dar
ing mail pouch robbery, in which the
