Home Again.
j The city editor of the Democrat re-
lumed last night after a week's whirl
among the good and loyal members of
the art preservative and visited his
daughter at Enid, and son at Guthrie.
At Enid the carnival was on and it
was a hummer, good time all the time
for every body and a lot or fine attrac-
tions that will be here. We saw the
newspaper lioys briefly at divers
times. The holy Sabbath was passed
in the Capital City where we enjoyed
a good visit with brother Hopkins,
managing editor of the Daily State
Capital and who ably represents Mr.
Greer during his absence in New-
York. Oklahoma is proud of the
State Capital printing plant, that is
all whose mental caliber is broad
enough to recognize true merit. No
western state has a more complete
printing establishment and the Guth-
rie people all point to it with laudible
pride. Our son L. C. holds the re-
sponsible position of foreman in tlie
press auil sterotyplng departments
and is doing finely and sends kind
regards to old. acquaintances here.
At Oklahoma City everything is
Jon the move, it is indeed becoming
a fine city of which all Oklahoma is
proud.

THE CIRCUS.
Everybody Went With the Children
Of Course and Saw the
Elephant.
Neither wind, weather or earth-
quakes can keep the multitude away
from a circus and last night was no
exception.
A jolly company of young ladles
all fancy free were guests of Fred
Sears and Mrs. Citma Blaekman
chaperoned the boys and girls to their
entire satisfaction while the fun went
merrily on under the big tent and
really they had more sport on their
own account than watching the clown
whirl around the pole. When a real
jolly bevy of girls go out for a cheer-
ful good time in innocent amusement
and whole souled cordiality they al-
ways have a jolly good time and this
was no exception to the rule.
ELABORATE PREPARATIONS
The physicians who had been at
the hotel all evening left at midnight.
A trained nurse was left in charge
of the distinguished patient, and ar-
rangements were made to bring doc-
tors back at a moment's notice. Dr.
Stockton said:
"Mrs. Davis' condition is very seri-
ous."
The doctors declined to give out
a statement regarding the nature of
Mrs. Davis' illness. A report that
she was suffering from acute indiges-
tion was denied, but no further in-
formation could be obtained
