from Muskogee. Oklahoma is In tho
Mltcbe.ll County Jail and a number
of negroes of Colorudo ami vU-lnity
ore out hundreds of dollars as the
climax of the confidential lnforma-
t Ion Imparted by Cornelia to victims
that she possessed "supernatural"
power even to the extent of control-
ling spirit of the departed.
Costella who Is a full blooded
Cherokee Indian came to Colorado
several day ago and Immediately be-
gan to take the negroes of the city
"Into her confidence" declaring that
he could take one dollar and cause
It to go Into a trance and later em-
erg with un Increase of from ten to
one hundred limes.
"I can take you niggers' money
bury it In do ground go off and talk
with the spirits and then go take a
basket and gather it up again every
time finding at least ten dollars
where one was burled." she would
tell them In a confidential manner.
"I can even take the money of you
niggers and hold it In my hand; by
saying 'hokus-pokus' raus the mon-
ey that belongs to them white folks
there In the bank to com- right out
o! tha safe and ino my hand and
them bankers w ill never miss it."
Her plan worked so well that sev-
eral local negroes dreaming of sud-
den wealth automobiles and no worn
turned what funds they had into her
possession. One local r.egro went so
far as to sell his pig cow and some
of the household effects raising 1;0 1
all or which he delivered t0 Costell !
with the expectation of the spirits
bringing back to him several thous-
and dollars. Two other nt-proes an-
said to have been so impressed as to
deliver to the "supernatural" person
over $300.
"When Costilla had carried this in-
toxicating news to a largf numb r ul
the local population and relieved
them of approximately f 1.000 tho
left town unannounced and wtnt to
Abilen intending Hi make tbo.e ne-
groes there rich also. She had not
been out of town long however un-
til some of those w ho tad b- n be-
witched by her story became suspic-
ious and appealed to Sheriff Choney.
Chepwy win d to Abilene had Costel-
la arrested and brought to Colorado
Friday.
The negro. who wen victimized
Stated that Coslellu would exact of
thein th promise that they t-11 no
white man of her marvelous pow-r.
as to do this would make th spirit
angry and cause her power to be tak-
en away.
"When we all i:et rich w ill c-.
to Muskogee." he would t"ll them
"and establish a colony of cur own.
where no white folks will be allowed
When we want some monty we will

which only his kindly courtesy Induced

They come from every part of the

hearth stands a great gilt empire

Cold caskets. Jeweled swords of
honor nntlijiie and valuable minia-
tures and Ivories the splendid enam-
