Amphion Quartet Program
Following is the concert program
given by the Amphion Quartet, as-
sisted by Miss Lena L> Wood, of
Mulhall, on the night of Friday.
November 17, at the opera house:
QUARTET PERSONNEL
Hunters in this section as well as
throughout the state, and sports-
men from other sections of the
country, who are acquainted with
the advantages of Oklahoma as a
hunting ground, for several weeks
have been oiling up their guns in
anticipation of the hunting season
which commenced on Wednesday
of this week.
Quail will be the most sauglit
game, although parties have been
organized in some localities to go
after deer and turkey in the moun-
tains. It is said that due to the
careful protection ot the state game
warden's office the quail have in-
creased in a large supply. Quail
hunters are allowed to take birds
from one-half hour before sunrise
yesterday (Nov. 15) until one-half
hour after sunset January 31, the
extra half-hours being included to
pfovide against conflict with the
night hunting law.
There is a limit to the number of
quail any hunter may kill, twenty-
five in one day or 150 in the season,
being fixed as the maximum.
The season for wild turkeys also
opened Wednesday, and hunters
/ are allowed to kill but three birds
during the entire open season which
lasts until January 1.
The open season for deer begun
the same day and lasts one month.
It is unlawful to kill any deer with-
out horns or more than one buck
deer with horns by any one hunter
in the season, and it is unlawful to
hunt or chase deer with dogs. An-
telope are protected for five years.
Deer, quail, turkey, snipe, plover,
curlew, duck, geese, brant, crane
and swan are the classes of game
on which the season is open at
present. All kinds of pheasants are
protected until November 1, 1914,
and it will be unfortunate for the
hunter who takes a shot at a pheas-
ant and is caught, a heavy fine be-
ing provided by the game laws.
All hunters must be provided
with licenses, except those hunting
on their own premises exclusively.
The licenses may be secured from
the game warden, the county clerk
of his county or in this vicinity may
l>e procured at the Ed. Hockaday
hardware. Resident hunters'licences!
Xcost $1.25 each, nonresident licenses i
$15 and alien licenses $25 each. All
citizens 14 years old or over may
obtain a license and their upplica-1
tions must be accompanied with an
affidavit, giving name, age, place of
residence, weight, height anil color
of eyes and hair, which facts are
also set out in the license issued.
About the "safest bet" for all (
hunters is to have a copy of the
state game laws with them and to
study it carefully to prevent un-
witting violotion of the law. War-
den Doolin's deputies are both nu-
merous and active, and they cer-
tainly "will get you if you don't

Second Lycem Course Attraction
Homer T. Wilson, lecturer, v.ho
will entertain Hennrssey people on
the night of Wednesday, Nov. 211,
as the second attraction on the1
Ivceuni course, is said to be 1>y
Senator Robert L. Taylor, "an ora-
tor among orators, a silver tongue
with a heart of gold. No man ever
heard him who did not leave his
presense a better and a happiet
man."
And again, Robert J. Burdette
eulogizes Homer T. Wilson in the
following manner:
"Once in a long while—not very
often—there steps out upon the
platform a man whom it does the
audience good to look at, and before
he begins to speak. A man whom
people instinctively 'warm to,' whom
j hey just know to be a man by the
poise of his head, by the soldierly
build of him, and by the way he
looks at them. And when he speaks
they see they were correct in their
diagnosis; he is a man, anil a man
that has something to say that
other men want to hear. And there
are the convictions back of the
words that give them power, a cer-
tain tenderness in the voice that
gives them music, and the man he-
hind the lecture that gives it sin-
cerity That's Homer T. Wilson
No wonder people go to hear him

this grand orator will be yours. Be

endeavor to secure these high in the season,

Sudden Drop in Temperature
The sudden fall in the tempera-
ture Saturday about noon was an
unpleasant surprise to everybody.
At 11:30 Saturday morning the
temperature registered about NO de-
grees at ilie government weather
station on the Parks farm just north
of town. A warm wind was blow-
ing a gale from the south with a
suspicion of moisture in tne air.
Within a half-hour the wind made
a sudden change to the north and
mercury began tailing rapidly. The
wind sweep everything that was
loose before it and somethings that
were not loose broke away and
moved southward at a rapid rate
before the icy blasts from the north-
land. 1 lie red dust from the fresh-
ly sown wheat fields of some local-
ities arose high in the air giving a
lurid glow to the darkening sky,
|resembling the light from an im-
| mense forest fire. By night the
I temneraiure was 21 degrees above
j freezing point and was falling rapid-
jly. Sunday morning it registered
j .1 above but due to the bright sun-
shine and the cessation of the ter-
1 rific gale moderated somewhat.
Monday was raw and chilly but by
! Tuesday the weatherman had call-
ed in his ferocious elements and the
! day was tair and bright.

Mrs. Brant again talks to friends
through the columns of Clipper.
Los Angeles, Cal., Oct. 17.
To my Dear Old Friends and Neigh
bors in Oklahoma.
I will try to write of this beauti-
ful country of sunshine ami flowers,
but as to sunshine I would not have
detected the change had I went to
sleep in Oklahoma and awoke in
California. But as to flowers, they
are everywhere, if you only plant
them and keep them cut back, that
is, wherever they get water. And,
by the way, the water proposition
was the first to overcome and the
wind the next in our own dear Okla-
homa. You all know I am a flower
friend, and when I see a whole yard
fence covered with ivy and geran-
iums and a high fissure of flowers;
and when 1 see a perfect tree 8 or 9
feet high growing out in the yard, 1
feel as though I never want to leave
this clime, if one could live oh
flowers alone. But after ten days j
here w'th my sister I find there is a
great deal of dissatisfaction and j
worry here the same as most other |
places I have been, but when I think !
of ten thousand people arriving
here in one day, as was the case the
18th of this month, I don't wonder
they hurry us off the train anil keep
us trotting at a very lively pace
even after the undertaker gets us.
My sister resides but a short dis-
tance from one of the principle
streets where the funeral cars pass,
and I think there has not been less
than six funerals every day, and
these enterments were made in the j
Catholic and Jewish cemeteries [
alone that pass this street.
My sister lives some eight blocks
out of the city limits and the way I
the town is growing one has to see j
it to realize it's mammoth size.'
And don't think our own Oklahoma
the only place where you see the
sign, "For Sale" on one house out of
every three in the new addition!
here bears that inscription. Now I
have onlv taken one trip over the j
city, to the parks and out to Eagle
Mountain, but I find the city too!
swift for me. The street car ser-
vice here reminds me of an Oklahoma
freight train of endless length, so :
when sister and her husband pro- j
poie to show me the sights of the I
city, I simply say, please show me;
the beauty of your country and the
scenery of your mountains and val-
leys, which is simply grand.
And everything's a ranch here.
From a city lot with a pen for a few
chickens or rabbits, a few fruit trees,
or grain patch, or hogs, dogs, up to
many acres, all comes under the
head of ranch.
The latest thing I caught was a
heavy cold and to get rid of my
headache I walked out to the
cemetery. It is truly a beautiful
place, decorated with palms and
rcses without number. Great mar-
ble vaults, perfect in artitect and
some as large as many Oklahoma
