FORD INTO A DITCH.
While taking an airing in their
Ford Sunday morning, Mr. and Mrs.
L. F. Hull, of the Hull Wagon Yard,
met with an accident, but escaped
without serious injury to themselves
or their machine. In turning the
corner at "Johnson's Corner." north-
west of the Sanitarium, in some way
control of the machine was lost, and
it swerved and went headfirst into a
deep ditch. The ditch was so deep
than only the hinderparts of the Ford
were visible. Norman Frashier. Ford
mechenican, was called, and succeeded
in getting a good picture of the pre-
dicament of the machine and then
lifted it out of the hole—with the
help of eight or ten men. It will take
about $15 to repair the machine, and
a little arnica will cure the bruises
of the occupants. Lucky it was no
worse.
—See the new styles in hats and
millinery goods—Mrs. Lizzie Smith,
101 South Peters.
—Miss Jessie Lee Batte left this
morning for Shawnee to visit her
cousin, Mrs. Charlie Meek a few days.
—Mrs. Phil Kidd and babe are
home from their outing in Colorado.
—News comes from Red Rock, Okla.
of the birth there on Sunday, Sept.
10th of a fine boy to Mr. and Mrs.
Norman Judd. Mrs. Judd was former-
ly Miss Helene Moore of this city.
| and had many friends who will re-
joice with her over the arrival.

made to bring out a full vote and

ator Beveridge, Raymond Robins and
Gov. Capper of Kansas.
There will be a large delegation of
Normanites at the Fairbanks meet-
ing. If you cannot go up in the af-
ternoon, go up in the evening and at-
tend the night meeting.
(Jet In Their Work Sunday Night at
the Wells Fargo Express Office
—Watch Out for Drunk Men.
Sunday night, a couple- of bold
booze burglars got in their work at
the express office in this city, cap-
turing five gallons of whiskey and a
case of beer; at least that is all that
has been missed. They broke the
glass out of the south window and
reached up and sprung the catch. It
was easy then to push up the sash
and get admittance to the store room.
No clue to the thieves.
Evidently they had an automobile
in readiness to remove their plunder.
If you notice any drunk men around
or hear of any oh-be-joyful parties
let the officers know.
—Ladies, do not purchase your
millinery goods or that fall hat be-
fore you examine Mrs. Lizzie Smith's
fine line of late styles. 110 South
Peters.
CAPT. McKINNEY TO MOORE.
After twenty-seven years residence
on their 240-acre farm north of
Franklin, Capt. and Mrs. Colin Mc-
Kinney have concluded to take life a
little more easy in their declining
years, and to that end have purchased
a six-acre tract of land just west of
the interurban depot in Moore, where
after January 1st next they will make
their home. The land already has a
good house upon it, to which they will
add improvements, making it desir-
able in every way. They will rent their
farm.
Everybody will extend their very
best wishes to this most worthy
couple, wishing them happiness and
contentment in their new home.
—Do you want health? It pays to
investigate Physcultopathy.
—"Sold all my furniture advertised
in the Transcript, so please cut out the
ad, for they are still coming," says
Mrs. P. W. Melton. Too bad. Classi-
fied liners seems to do its work too
well from the standpoint of the
printer.
—It now appears that a well known
citizen of this town has shook the dust
of Norman from his feet and hied
himself to other pastures. His wife
is in receipt of a card from him (kted
at Omaha, saying he was on his way
to Calgary, Canada. Various rumors
are afloat as to the reasons why he
left and the amount of money he took
with him. all of which, it is said, will
develop later in a criminal prosecu-
tion that will probably be brought. He
leaves a good wife and interesting
family, who have the sympathies (or
congratulations) of the community.
Another concert, or "Community
Gathering" will be held next Friday
night, Sept. 15th.
Mark the calendar now. Cross off
Friday night with red ink, so as not
to forget the date.
This entertainment will excel any
other concert given in Norman as a
"Community Gathering." A fine
program is being arranged by Miss
Frona Asher.
Invite your friends to come to Nor-
man next Friday evening and enjoy
an outing that will long be remember-
ed. Something novel and attractive
will be given. Bring your cushions
and chairs with you. Only a few
seats can be provided for elderly
people.
Muffle your automobiles, and try
to keep them still. Read this week's
papers—and don't forget the date.
THE CIVIC COMMITTEE
r. m. Mcfarlin interested
J. M. Smith, of the organization
committee of the Celveland County
Development company} met r. M. Mc-
Farlin, the Tulsa-Holdenville-Cushing
oil magnate, by appointment, in Okla-
homa City, Saturday night, and went
over the oil situation in Cleveland
county with him. Mr. Smith found
that Mr. McFarlin was fully informed
of the situation here and very favor-
ably impressed with it, so favorably
that he subscribed for some stock, and
tendered the services of the geologists
of his company for a thorough exam-!
ination of the prospects. He also I
tendered the services of his organi-1
zation to secure a driller, make con-
tracts and purchase supplies, which
will assist the company very mater-
ially and save it considerable money.
OIL DRILLING AT BLANCHARD.
The Blanchard News of last week
notes a great deal of activity in and
around that city in the matter of se-
curing leases and arrangements for
putting down additional wells. The
field is attracting attention from men
of means from all over the country
and Blanchard hotels are crowded.
The News says leases of land close
to the test wells are bringing $10 an
acre and up and from four to five
miles away the acreage is being held
at from $8 to $10.
The Homa Oil company's well is
now down about 600 feet, and cutting
through very favorable formations.
There is every indication production
will be secured in this well. Two
other derricks are up and drilling
commences at once.
—While learning to drive her new
Buick Six, on East Duffy street. Sat-
urday evening, Mrs. C. M. Keiger al-
lowed it to get beyond her control
and it ran into R. P. Burris' buggy,
dishing one of the wheels of the
vehicle and otherwise injuring it. No
one hurt. Mr. Burris was in the
buggy and was "shook up" some-
what.
—Prof, and Mrs. C. II. Stocking are
on their way home.
SCORES SIN,
SUFFRAGETTES,
SIGARETTES.
Elder Burke Culpepper of Mississippi
Makes a Few Remarks About
Women, Wine and
Weienewurst, in Okla-
homa City Revival
Meeting.
Outsundaying Bro. Billy Sunday in
the matter of contortions in the pul-
pit and the fierce forcibleness of his
utterances, Rev. Burke Culpepper of
Mississippi opened a series of revival
services in St. Luke's M. E. church
in Oklahoma City last night, and. ac-
cording to the Oklahoman, took the
hide off the sinners, cigarette fiends,
suffragettes and other frailties of
that town. Some of his word-pictures
were as follows:
"Sin was born in heaven. You can
sin for God as well as for the devil.
You can go to heaven and sin if you
want to—you can go there and run off
with another angel's wife, if you
want to. Sin in its exceeding sinful-
ness is more powerful than the
knowledge of God, It is more power-
ful than the combined influence of
the church, the pulpit and prayer."
"Nothing, no living creature on
earth or in the sea, has as little sense
as woman. Woman is the sweetest,
purest and most lovely thing on earth,
but is the most senseless. Tell at
woman she has a pretty carriage and
she will outswitch a Choctaw rail-
road. Sin was first born on the golden
streets of heaven and second in a
woman's heart. Man has five times
the self-respect of a woman. Man is
particular of the past of the woman
he marries, but woman will mary any-
thing that wears breeches if he looks
all right for the time being. I could
come to this town, put on a natty suit,
stick a cigaret in one corner of my
mouth, get a tin Lizzie, and in six
months marry the sweetest, purest
girl in this town, and I am not much
for beauty. All women should have
a guardian before they go on the
streets. Ten years ago a woman
would walk ten blocks to escape pass-
ing a group of men and have them
comment on her. Now a woman will
put on as little clothes as possible and
walk the same distance out of her
way to pass the same bunch of men.
Every woman should make her pros-
pective husband bring a doctor's
certificate with him when he brings
the marriage license. The average
man sitting before me tonight is not
fit to marry a Texas cow, much less
a clean woman."
The evangelist was especially severe
in his scoring of the cigaret smoker.
"This is the cigaret fiend-fool age,"
he said. "I hope I am asked to speak
to the high school. The girls are out-
graduating the boys on account of
the cigaret evil. Twenty-five years
from now the average woman will be
several inches taller than her hus-
band because the boys are stunting
themselves with coffin nails."
Mr. Culpepper's position on the suf-
frage question, expressed during his
morning sermon on the "Four-Square
Man" is an extremely positive one.
"The most sissified thing a man can
do is to favor votes for women. If
woman is given the ballot, she is re-
enslaved. All that the church and
civilization has done for thousanls of
years to exalt woman to her present
freedom will be in vain if women are
allowed to vote. She will simply take
upon herself burdens and responsibil-
ity that belongs to men only. She
will make of herself a slave," he con-
cluded.
—The experiences of Norman
people prove that Dr. Rice's Phys-
cultopathy is good in catarrh, stomach
disease, rheumatism, neuralgia and
fevers.
—Miss Eva Clifton returned on
Saturday from Chicago, where she
has been taking special work in the
University of Chicago. She will re-
sume her duties in the Norman high
school.
—Miss Mary Burke was the guest
of Miss Temple Highley in Oklahoma
City over Sunday and Miss Mae
Shingledecker visited Mrs. Ada E.
Bowling.
—M.ss Cora Ward was here from
Ok!ah< ma City the week-end. the
guest of Mrs. J, J. Burke.
