Benjamin Clothes
Ap-janineOR".
You’d be surprised if we’d tell you the number of men in
this city who come to us, quite worried because of the fear
that they can not obtain a suit of exceptional attractiveness,
and one not having that flippant “air” which characterises
so many makes of clothes. We quiet their fears in a moment
and do it very easily, too. In our long experience we have
found that freakishness is not style, nor are the clamorous
patterns. Acting upon our real knowledge of a gentleman’s
needs we are always prepared to exhibit rare styles and fasci-
nating patterns; BUT NOT boisterous clothes. The Sea-
bright Sack, made by Alfred Benjamin & Co., in New York,
is a remarkable style, which is so up-to-the-minute" that it
fairly sparkles. The fabrics are soft and rich; the tailoring
is of the kind which only expert workers can give. It is a
clean, good, “ACade in New York” style which men of taste
desire.

MOLDS UP SCHOOL.
Bad Indian Makes Trouble at Sleeper.
Oklahoma.
Sleeper, Okla., Oct. M—For an hour
before the little building was riddled
with bullets by a posse, pupils in the
counrty school house near Sleeper had
for their schoolmaster yesterday Jack
Willis, a swaggering Cherokee Indian
desperado. From the teacher’s desk
the outlaw took charge of the class,
compelling frightened pupils to re-
cite lessons and making them sing
their school songs for his amusement,
while the regular teacher, Mrs. Anna
Snyder, whom he had threatened with
death, stood helplessly by.
The Cherokee's tutelage ended with
the arrival of Constable U. 0. Wilson
and a posse, which engaged Willis in a
battle, In which the Indian was killed,
aad Tuck Ketcher, a deputy, was se-
verely wounded.
Wisslis had been a fugitive for four
months. When he appeared at the
schoolhouse in the morning, frighten
ing the children, Mrs. Snyder ordered
him to leave, but he laughed and dis-
played his weapons, threatening to
kill her if she did not remain quiet.
Taking his place at the teacher’s
desk, Wisslis put the pupils through
mock exercises, laughing uproariously
at their terror. Beating time with his
fist on the desk, he had the class sing.
The children’s voices quavered with
tear as they sang the songs the teach-
er had taught them.
The lidian’s diversions were inter-
rupted by the noise of approaching
horses. He went to the door of the
-sehoolhyouse-and-looked-outer-He slam-
med it quickly and pushed a table
against it when he saw constable Wil-
son and four others riding toward the
building.
Crouching beneath a window, the
Cherokee opened fire. At the first soot
Ketcher fell with a bullet in his hip.
Members of the posse then rode
around the schoolhouse firing at ev-
ery side as Wisslis darted from win-
dow to window.
Their bullets tore through the thin
walls of the schoolhouse in which the
terrified children were huddled and en-
dangered their lives. Mrs. Synder led
them into the cloak room in a rear
part of the building and opening a
window ordered them to climb out and
run.
When the children came tumbling
from the window, the posse ceased fir-
ing until the last had escaped. Mrs.
Snyder remained and helped the small-
er children through the window. The
firing was resumed while Wilson, un
der cover of his companions’ steady
fusilade, crept toward the building,
located the Indian’s position and fired
through the wall killing him instantly
