A shot gun loaded with fine
bird shot probably saved the life
of Wadie Bardin a shoemaker
of this city last Wednesday.
The facts as reported by Var-
din are about this way:
For the past nine months he
has been keeping company with
Annie the 18 year old daughter
of W. R. Steele -a farmer liv-
ing about two miles north of
Krebs near Gleasi i Prairie.
Apparently everything moved

It is to be a genuine get-together

Another game between Harts-

next Tuesday in McAlester It
will be the deciding game as it
now stands each team has won a
game. Play will start
sharp.

ters little whether they may hap-
pen to have lost a loved one or
not. A cemetery is a place that
every living soul should never
allow an opportunity to pass to
plant a flower.
That Krebs will respond in
full measure to this occasion and
be out in full force the Miner
has no doubt and we would urge
that every citizen of Krebs men
will be there with his Arkansaw
fiddle. There will be some of
the best talent in McAlester in
readings dialects etc. and be-
sides Krebs will furnish one of
the orators of the evening Prof.
Craghead and Judge Stuart of
Oklahoma City but formerly of
McAlester and one of the best
orators in the state will likely
be present. In fact the pro-
gram promises to be the best of
its kind ever given.'
Let Krebs get together and
send a big delegation and assist
in a worthy enterprise. Remem-
