Col. Billy Ilhineheimer will leave
in a few days for Turkville, Mo. It
is the old trouble—a sweetheart—but
the distance costs Billy oodles of
money. He don't carry a railroad
pass.
Frank Hodgden is an ameture sport
but he made it win at the ball game
yesterday. He took all the bets the
boys desired to make, regardless of
how they wanted to bet and he won
all but two. He must have won
steen dollars.
A discussion is going on in Okla-
homa as to whether McGuire's first
name should be spelled "Bird" or
"Byrd." It is not definitely known
just how it should be spelled now; but
after the election it will be spelled
"Mud."—Wichita Beacon.
Mr. Henry Clay Kennedy presented
the Wave with a plum tree branch
about a foot long containing twenty-
eight well developed half ripe plums.
They were all real nice large healthy
looking plums. Oklahoma is a great
plum country this season and Mr.
Kennedy has bushels of them for
sale.
The Kingfisher papers of both
parties contain on an average, the
announcements of twenty people
seeking the nomination of their party
for cornty and other offices this fall.
In Garfield county very few seem to
be seeking office this year through
announcement in ,;the papers. We
presume the offices will have to seek
their men this year. Good!
Ex-United States Marshal Harry
Thompson, of this city is still con-
fined to his room in the Hotel Frantz
most of the time, suffering from the
affects of the injuries received in a
run-away several months ago. It is
now thought that he will have to
endure a surgical opporation for the
removal of one of his kidnies which
was injured by a brsken rib crushing
into it.
The Wave has signed many peti-
tions for a side walk out Broadway to
this office and on west, and, we have
been promised the same many times
but all we receive is brick piles,
sometimes where the side-walk should
be, and sometimes on the street piled
up high enough to almost serene our
sign. However we presume our busi-
ness is not worthy of any respect
protection.
One of the alleged newspapers, we
never considered such, which enjoys

This change is har.Uy worth mention-
ing as far as the democratic cam
ipaign is concerned this fall, it will
not cost a vote, but low about finding

Sure Cure
Any lack of iron in the blood shows in the face.
Pallor is the sitfn. Pallor also means much
more; it means a starved nervous system, a de-
' bilitated condition of the vital organs, poor cir-
culation and impaired digestion. The nerves,
the muscles, and all the organs of your body get
their energy and all the materials for their re-
1 pair from the blood. Pallor shows that all
j these are losing vitality. Not a day should be
lost in restoring the richness and purity of the
blood. Get iron-get it by taking the kind of
iron your blood requires. The iron in Dr. Har-
ter's Iron Tonic is the perfect kind. It goes
from your stomach directly into the blood with-
out any change. An hour after you take it, it has
become part of your blood and is doing good.

The Enid Browns came out of their
voluntary retirement yesterday and
defeated the best ball team of Wich-
ita in a hotly contested game, as the
score of 2 to 0 testifies. This was

Frantz was a better one.
Our people were not expecting such
a good strong game, believing that
our boys being out of practice would
be beaten. The Brown's nine was
composed of the following well known
old time Enid ball players: Harry
Ellis, C; Walt. Frantz, P; Mont
Frantz, 1st B; Osborne, 2nd B; Har-
ris, 3rd B: J. Missinger S S; P. j

pions of the season as they did not
leave their adversaries score a run.
A Dry Windy Fourth.
No attempt at celebrating the
fourth of July was attempted, through
any special program, yesterday, in
this city with the acceptions of a
horse race and ball game at the fair
gounds. Owing to the high winds
and dust very little bunting and
flags were displayed. The smaller
boys seemed to have a good supply of
fire-crackers, toy guns etc. etc., and
as usual there is a list of wounded
for today's paper. Owing to the
weather it is just as well that no at-
tempt was made to celebrate as any
suiting from impure blood, such as scrofula,
pimples, blotches, kidney disorders, rheuma-
tism, gout, dyspepsia, female weakness, etc.
Endorsed by eminent physicians for nearly
fifty years.
The following is one of thousands of similar
testimonials we have received, convincing evi-
dence that Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic does all that
is claimed for it:

FOE BALE EVERYWHERE.
School Land Scheming.
There is a movement on foot in this
territory
looking to the sale of the
school lands. The WAVE is uncom-
promisingly opposed to such a deal
for many reasons. First - because
the funds given the school children
by a beniflcent government is mucli
kind of outdoor program would have j safer and better invested in the land
been more disagreeable than pleas- j than in any other way or any other
ant. The neighboriug towns caught i kind of security. Second—Because
Yesterday, ihe Fourth of July,
about ll:.'f0a. m., Parker Durham, a
boy 11 years old, was engaged in
shooting a toy pistol on the south
side of Broadway. It seems that he
was shooting No. 22 calibre revolver
shells which fitted his toy gun. Miss
Pearl Sack, about 12 years old, was
passing along the side walk; just as
she passed, young Durham pulled off a
shot from his gun and the bullet took
effect on the right side of her neck
cutting in close to the jugular vein.
The lictle girl fell and the boy put
out scared almost to death.
People on the walk picked the girl
up and hurried her off to Mayberry's
office. The doctor found considera-
ble hemorrhage in the wound which
he relieved but did not think it best
to try to remove the ball which still
remains in the girl's neck some-
where .
She is the daughter of Andrew Sack
living six miles due east of the city.
The girl is considered out of danger
and was taken to her home this
morning.
It was quite evident that the boy
did not intend to shoot the little girl,
hence, it was wholly an accident
but a very careless one. The boy
was not arrested, but the father as-
sumed the doctor bill. The dealer
who sold the shells to the boy is the
one that should suffer in the case,
yet it is possible that he did not
know the use the boy was going to
make of them.

Notice to Subscribers.
The Wave carrier toys are in-
structed not to hand the daily to the
children of any subscriber on the
street. They are informed to take
the paper to the house, or hand
it to the man or woman of the house
only, should they desire it, on the
street. Lately two of our carrier boys
have been attacked on the streets,
by boys of families taking the paper
and they punched the boys because
they would not hand over the paper
and in both cases took all
the papers the boys had

The Races.
The Hon. George Orner has gone
back to the seat of his official duties
in Helena Montana. His late short
distance trot for the republican con
■gressional nomination had nothing to
<lo with the present wind storm and
the prevalent; pimply heat in the
ranks of the G. O. P. Orner is
good fellow outside of politics. He
has been a whole lot of use to the
government and the government has
been a whole lot of use to Orner.
Col. Blackwell unveiled hisso-call
•ed monument at Blackwell yester
day. It is of wood, twenty feet
high, and the inscriptions contains
nothing of special note. It is about
jjood and evil and such things.

gin of pin-headed men, ask Colonel
Blackwell." There was nothing bor
dering on the expected sensational
in'its unveiling, and only compara
lively a few attended the ceremonia"

The pacing and running races on
the Enid turf yesterday were real
good and quite exciting. Huff's
Tony Faust" and Frank Kirk's "Sil-
ver Leaf," two first class pacers,
were matched in a half mile heat
race, best two in three. Tony Faust
won the two first heats, time 1:05 and
1:04. Tony Faust secured about 25
feet of a start in the first heat and a
little more in the second, giving him
considerable of the advantage, how-
ever, the two horses are well matched
for speed. There were several good
running races, but we failed to get
the particulars.
The Usual Accidents.
It seems that many of the doctors
the school fund is not only receiving
a good interest on the value of the
lands, but the market value of said
land is increasing every year and is
bound to increase as time flies for the
reasons that nearly all the available
agricultural lands have been taken
up. We believe that in less than
ten years the value of school land
will average $50 per acre, half of
which cannot be realized at this
time.
Third—There is always more or less
boodling or grafting going on in the
handling of public school moneys,
hence, if the lands were to be sold it
would simply open the way for a syn- j
dicate of looties to fatten up their j
worldly possessions and in a few yeais j
the school money derived from the
sale of the lands would be swollowed
up with nothing to tell the tale but
enormous ledger accounts over at the
temporary capital. As long as the
school fund remains in land the
schools may expect an income from
it. After it is turned into other se-
curities of any kind the income will
be uncertain. However, it is a well
known fact that much reform is
needed in the handling of the school
land and the money derived from it.
The present system is at least too
costly and there are many loop holes
for the grafter. The money is often
held by the bank? when it should be
distributed among the schools at
once, but the bankers desire to use it
for their owfi benefit for a time. The
congress or legislature should remedy
this defect.
Not Genuine.
If Sheriff Painter, of Lawton
correct in his report to Governor
Fer usen that the Lawton bull
fights are simply exhibitions of the
cow-boys skill in evading the terri-
ble lunges and plunges of the bull,
the fights are not genuine and very
tame affairs. The interest in the
fights must be about the same in
comparison as a boxing match and a
pugelestic encounter.
Bills.
There were more than 15,000 bills
introduced incongress the lastsession
but the number passed has not been
stated. If President Roosevelt used
a new pen with each bill, he should
be able in time to satisfy the demand
for "the pen with which he signed
the bill."
Postoffice Robbed.
Norman, O. T., July 4. The post-
office at Edmond was broken into
last night and large amountof stamps
taken. Sheriff Smith of Forman was
phoned to go there with his blood-
hounds this morning.

Charles Campbell, a railway man,
who has been at Hennessey a short
time, is in the county jail, charged
with the murder of John Casperson
On Monday night, about midnight,
as the two men were in a restaurant
in that place, Campbell drew a revol-
ver and fired several shots through a
stove pipe. Then, telling Casperson
he was going to shoot through his
hat, he leveled his gun and fired.
The bullet went through Casperson's
hat and through his head also, split
ting the skull on top and producing a
wound from which he died the next
BROWN'S REWARD.
Like Benedict Arnold, He is to be Taken
Care of by the
Enemy.
The daily Oklahoman says that the
Double Observer Brown is to be made
secretary of the Republican Cam-
paign Committee. These sudden
changes in the political drama of
life are in line with the popular vau-
deville low comedy. Brown has prov-
himself to be a very common, or
ordinary, political vaudeville actor;
in other words he has shown that he
has been acting a part as a democra-
tic journalist! V) producing a very
poor immitation of Branns Iconaclast.
It is not necessary for an actor to
believe the part or character he acts
he simply plays his part to produce a
good, or humorous effect. Brown,
through his late acrobatic act simply
shows that he is not possessed of any
real earnest set principle, democra-
tic, republican or otherwise, hence,
his work, since his self exposure, will
amount to nothing in the political
world. The democratic party has
simply gotten rid of a very poor
"flash in the pan," actor in the cam-
paign and like the printer, when he
is discharged, or quits one shop, he-
goes over and applies for a job in an
other shop. The first thing the peo-
ple know Brown will be carrying
stock in the republican sanitarium
and then he will not hesitate to pub-
lish that all he has ever published in
regard to that institution was false.
Brown has caught more of the flipant
flighty weakness of human nature
than any other unsophisticated crea-
ture in the territory. He had better
go back to Kansas, and continue his
drunk and preach for the prohibition
cause. Such a hypocracy would not
be any more glaring than the role he
is playing in Oklahoma.
Why of Course
"Flynn has agreed to help Mc-
Guire." Why of coure, if Dennis
would announce that he wouldn't help
him it would result in a boomarang
against his future senatorial plans. | jay ]>eno News.
However, it is not likely that Dennis '
will push in to an extent that would
produce that tired sleepy feeling. It
will take a united republican party
to defeat Bill Cross and then some.

Double Observer Brown has sued
the Oklahoma City Oklahoman for
lible, because the paper stated that

gret, very much that Cross did not
give him the money and let it go at
that.
