CHEMAWA SECOND VS. ALBANY
HIGH 12 to 0.
The Chemawa second football team
defeated the Albany high school Satur
day afternoon on the Chemawa gridiron,
12 to 0.
Chemawa used the forward pass and
quarterback kicks for gains and went
through the Albany line repeatedly.
Two minutes after play Chemawa push
ed one of Albany's backs over the line
for a safety. Then by a series of for
ward passes and line bucks Scott was
pushed over trie . line.- The goal was
missed.
In the second half Chemawa attempt
ed the forward pass and were penalized
several times. Then they resorted to
onside kicks, punting, end runs and
bucking the line. Williams, E., made
the sensational play of the day.
On the 25-yard line the signal was
given for an onside kick. Williams took
the b ill, made feint of kicking, but seeing
an open field, plunged forward for a
twenty-five yard run over the line forthe
last touchdown.
Lewis 'and Smoker ran the ball in
well and Clark's punting gave our boys
yardage. Chemawa fumbled and was
poor at recovering fumbles. Bigbee at
left end and McBride at full played an
excellent game for Albany and were in
every play.
The lirie-up was as follows:

HU r-CHO-NUPAH DEAD.
Guthrie, Okla., Nov.28. Hut-cho-im-pah,
last of the medicine men, is dead in
the Snake hills of the Creek nation. He
was 95 years old. For half a century he
had been one of the most turbulent
spirits among the Indians in Oklahoma.
He maintained his sway until his death.
Hut-cho-nu-pah led the last rebellion
of the Creeks in 1890. His faction was
subdued by the Creeks themselves before
the United States' troops got there. A
battle was fought, Hut-cho-mi-pah's
band of 50 was annihilated and he was
condemned to death.
But so great was the awe in which the
old medicine man was held that no one
could be found to be his executioner.
With his adherents dead and himself
imprisoned his influence was so potent
that he compelled the eleciion of a friend
as chief, and was pardoned.
The medicine man fought for the
northern forces during the civil, war.
Always he asserted that he was under
the special protection of the Supreme
Being and claimed power over the lightning.
