BtitutioriH of the state is the newly-
bgtdb'lidhcd Masonic orphanage at
Darlington. The site was recently
purchased from the government by
*he Masons of the state, and was
for many years an Indian reserva-
tion, the thirty-seven buildings lo-
arled thereon being used for an In-
dian school. Since acquiring the
land and buildings the Masons
have begun extensive improvements
and the intention is to make this
one of the best Masonic orphanages
to be found in the United States.
The board of control, composed
of Judge W. L. Eagleton, Pawnee,
chairman; L. E. Lounsberry, Mc-
Alester, and II. L. Muldrow, Tish-
omingo, met in Oklahoma City re-
| cently and deliberated on the future

ing requireu to farm one of the plot
of land.
An industrial department will be

ned and in a few years it is expect-
ed that this will be one of the big-
gest fruit farms in the state.
Ihe orphanage is undar the sup-
erintendency of C. C. Christensen,
a man who has had years of exper-
ience in the work. The matron is
.Miss Emma Telle, a prominent
Eastern Star, who will have an as-
sistant ret to be chosen. The corps
of administrators will also include
a seamstress, a cook, a man in
charge of the work in agriculture.
At present there are 65 orphans be-
i ig instructed and cared for in the
i i ti'iition. but applications which
are constantly coming in, indicate
H ii the number will be almost
doubled as soon as improvements
and alterations in the buildings now
in progress are completed.
In addition to the educational
advantages offered by the Darling-
ton public school, to the mainten-
ance of which the Masons give
their assistance, the inmates of the
home will receive instruction in
stenography. Thirty-seven brick
and fiarno buildings comprise the
make the home up-to-date in every
way, and to provide the best pos-
sible care and training for the
orphans and superannuated of the
order. No expense wjll be spared
■ay the members of the board of
control, to accomplish this purpose.

LEADING DRUGGIST.
Some days ago Sam Roach had
E. L. Barber arrested on a serious
charge in connection with Roachs'
wife, but last Thursday Roach
went before the proper authorities
and withdrew the charges atnl paid
the costs. All of the parties are
I prominent residents of Salt creek,
;^d the a'mst of Barber created
<juite a sensation.
The Lash of a Fiend
would have been about as welcome
to A. Cooper of Oswego, N, Y.,
as a merciless lung racking cough
that defied all remedies for years.
"It was most troublesome at night,
nothing helped me until I used Dr.
King's New Discovery which cured
me completely. I never cough at
nights now." Millions know its
matchless merit for stubborn colds,
obstinate coughs, sore lungs, la-
grippe. asthma, hemorrhage, croup
whooping cough, or hay fever. It
relieves quickly and never
f^ils to satisfy. A trial convin-
ce s. 50c. ¥1.00. Trial bottle free.
It's positively guaranteed by all
druggists.
The services at tho M. E. church
Saturday evening, and Sunday
morning were extensive and drew
large crowds.
Dr. Bradford, Chancellor oic Ep-
worth University lectured Saturday
evening and preached Sunday morn-
ing. Dr. Riley of Epworth Un-
iversity and Rev. Maudlin, of Paw-
huska were also present Sunday and
assisted in the services. Sunday
nights' service was called off on
account of the rain.
The object of the services was
I to dedicate the new church, but
sufficient funds to put the church
out of debt could not be raised and
the dedication had to bo postponed
to some future time. The indebt-
edness of the church is about §1550
and only something like $800 was
pledged.

E. W.Stoner Has Broken Ground
For A Fine Building
In The Burnt
District.
E. W. Stoner, the popular barber
has let the contract for a good
brick building to be built on his
lot on Broadway in the burnt dis-
trict and work on the foundation
has been commenced. The build-
ing will be 30 x 50 and one story.
There will be two rooms with plate
glass fronts. The building will
have cement floors and be up-te-
date in every particular. One
room will be used by Mr. Stoner

LaBt Friday night the dwelling

to have been si ^ hre out of spite.
The house wa.51 n°t an expensive
one, being the or dinary farm lease

stroyed. Mrs. Patterson is a poor
widow woman and the loss falls
heavily on her. It seems strange
that any one of human form could
become so degraded and mean as
to burn the property of a poor
widow, and the villian should 1 e
