Notwithstanding the "lambas-
tin" given McAlester's "400" by
the recent evangelists Rev's.
Price and Bulgin at the big re-
vival just closed the "Silk stock-
ing" bunch of that place still
persist in their games of chance.
Almost any issue of the papers
of that city will be seen where
Mrs. so and so won top score and
was awarded a pair of silk stock-
ings. But the meetings have
closed the evangelists gone
their words forgotten and Monte
Carlo still flourishes.
It would'nt surprise us one
bit to hear of a "stud poker"
game or a crap table in opera-
tion at some of these swell (?)
functions.

A Creat Game.
Those that witnessed the ball
game in McAlester last Sunday
between the Elks and Graff's
Boosters say it was one of the
best games ever pulled of within
the walls of old League Park.
The Elks won by a score of 2 to 1
but they had to "go some" to do
it. Elliott for the Elks hit a
little pop-up over irst base
which was lost in the weeds and
he was allowed to make the entire
ciecuit forcing a run in ahead
of him. If ground rules had
been provided the result might
have been different.
Ben Barry at second 'and Lynn
Boyd catcher for the Elks (both
of Krebs) pulled of some "hair-
-raising" stunts and played gilt-
edged ball all the way through.
The same teams meets again
next Sunday at 4 o'clock.
Prisoner Shot.
Orice Bold serving a 30 day
sentence on the county road on a
charge of vagancy was shot
through the left leg Tuesday
afternoon in attempting to escape
while at work with che road gang
a few miles west of Kiowa.
The wound is not serious.
He was brought to county jail
hospital for treatment.

IN SHOOT
Met and Defeated the Dewar Team Last
Saturday in a Great Contest.
That Krebs has within her
border five trap shooters that
she shonldi)e proud of was prov-
en last Saturday afternoon when
five of the Homer brothers Nim
Charley Joe Will and Clarence
of this city met and defeated five
members of the Dewar Ok. club
at the latter place before a large
crowd by a score of 433 to 425.
Another contest has been ar-
ranged for between these two
teams in this city shortly after
