Toward morning it began to rain hard
and rain continued to fall nearly all day

No one could aid the woman, and in

The government has been carrying on

subject to tho approval of the Cherokee
legislature. The price to le paid is said

Banker D. T. Beals. ut Kansas City, and
his suljscqncnt return upon the payment

demandi-d, from him, has la-en the
sensation of the hour. The in-oplc are
now indisnant. and threaten to lynch Liz
zie Smith, alias Kii.g. the altductress. and
her paramour, Albert King, because Bank
er Beals refuses to identify or prosecute
them. The father is so delighted at the
return of his child, safe aud sound, that he
proposes to k-cp the promise made to the
agent of the abductors, not to hand them
over to the police.
