Shawnee cannot play Enid anymore
until they secure a few ball players.
The blessings of the rain that fell
night before last is still with us, but
it did not dampen the soil deep enough
to plow.
Shawnee cannot beat Enid in any
thing but raising spuds. We could
match 'em 011 spuds, but there is
nothing in them. Only worth 30
cents per bushel.
Wonder who will be the editor of
the Huzzard next week? New edi-
tor every week. It seems to be as
hard for the B to secure good players
as it is in a ball fame.
Take hold of the celebration work.
Don't let any department lag. It is
unfortunate that the time for pre-
paration is short, but good active
work will push it to a great success.
The Spanish bull light feature of
the Anniversary Celebration will be
avery interesting feature within it-
self. At least one dozen ferocious
bulls will be procureJ and a fight will
occur every afternoon during the cel-
ebration.

A couple of highwaymen stole a lo-
comotive to wreck a train, in broad
daylight, at Shawnee, the other day.
Shawnee is a tall timbered district.
It is a favorite place for hold ups to
hide out like its professional base

THE FLOWER PARADE.
lower parades are
always one of the
most pleasing
features of city
celebrations, and
the Wave is
pleased to an-
nounce that Mr.
Frank Letson,
the manager of
this department of the big celebra-
tion, has met with good success in
awakening an interest in the same
among the ladies. Eighteen have al-
ready registered for participation in
the parade and as the prizes offered
are very liberal, no doubt at least
thirty beautifully decorated buggies
and carriages will appear in line. Mr.
Letson assures the WAVE that the
parade will be a grand and pleasing
success. Those who may not fully
understand how to go about trimming
abuggv will receive full instructions
from the manager at the Hank of
Enid.
A few ladies who went to much
pains and expense in trimming bug-
gies for the parade two years ago
were much dsiappointedowing to the
heavy rain that fell 011 the 16th of
September. As there will be full six
. days of the celebration, this will not
occur again If it rains on the day
set for the parade, it will be postponed
until another day so that the work of
the ladies cannot possibly be in vain.
MAS GROWN A LITTLE.
Today the Daii.y Wave assumes
its original size which we hope to
maintain until we can swell out some
more. The spirit abiding here does
not believe that the size of a news-
paper cuts any great figure in its
worth, importance or value as a read-
able journal, but as we have been
bothered to find room for the gener-
ous patronage of the Enid merchants
and others for some time past, we
concluded that the time had come to
swell out a little. We are prejudiced
against a "fill up paper," we hate
boilerplate as it is always stale and
besides we do not believe that any-
one reads the stuff, hence, if we can-
not keep the paper filled without
the use of plate we will jerk down to
the five column size again.
The proprietors of this journal can
command $10,000 new capital to push
this paper forward whenever they
can see this way clear to make the
break without loss. The Wave lives
strictly on its merits, whatever that
maybe considered by its constituents,
and when it fails to succeed it will
quit business without warning or a
moments hesitation. We will never
get up a gift enterprise to push it.
The Wave must go for its individual
worth. Now is the time to subscribe.

tors.

Sheriff Porter arrived in Enid at
10:20 a. m. to day with his prisoner
George Fry, who was arresed in Hut-
chinson, Kansas. Fry came back
willingly not putting the sheriff to the

that he had nothing to say for publi-

whole trouble would assume a differ-
ent light. He did not seem to be
down cast or out of humor or patients.

The Big Ingun flames.
Owing to the Shawnee games being
called off the Enid team secured an
impromptu engagement for three
games, Thursday, Friday and Satur-
day of this week with the Fort Cobb
Indian team. The first game occurred
this afternoon. The Fort Cobb In-
dians arc real good ball players, hence
the Enid's will not enjoy an easy
walk away. The Indians played
Shawnee last Sunday and Monday
while they were beaten the gamei
were close. Owing to the fact that
this team is wholly composed of In-
eians, which is a novelty in ball play-
ing, a good attendance will {no doubt
be drawn out. There will be plenty
of fun in the game and in all prob-
ability the umpire will be thrown
down and scalped.
BILL CROSS CLUB.
The democracy and populists of
the northwest corner of the county
have organized a rousing Hill Cross
Club at Kremlin and the attendance
at each meeting of the Club is good
which indicates a triumphant victory
for the allied forces.
There are similar organizations in
other parts of the county. I he of-
ficers of the Club are H. J. Iluling,
chairman: F. II. Krouse, vice pres-
ident; C. P. Carpenter, secretary: J.
W. Schull/.ler, treasurer: executive
committee, J. C. Mosmore, Ned Leo-

Tbcr. is nothing like organizing for

Throwed up the Sponge.
Late Tuesday afternoon Capt.
Frantz, the manager of the Enid team
received a telegram from the mana-
ger of the Shawnee team calling off
the three games billed for Shawnee
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of
this week, without giving any reason-
able excuse. Guess the Shawnee
boys have thrown up the spongue
having come to the conclusion that
the short and tall fellows of the Enid
team are too much for them. The
Shawnee team hates defeat worse
than any team we ever saw on the
diamond.

The lilly whites and jet black re-
publicans of Skinfisher have fallen
out and the jet blacks have nominated
what they call the "John Brown re-
publican ticket." Five hundred ne-
groes participated in the mass con-
vention. Only two of the candidates
belong to the white trash. It is go-
ing to cost Admire, Seah and Brown-
lees Emory oodles of money to secure
honey harmony out of this black

The republican supply agent gave
the half shell republican tootwilder
2000 blanks to print. Tooty couldn't
print them, hadn't the type or
paper, took them over to the all re-
publican basement and had them
printed and made 50 cents, and both
tooty and the basement go on with
their fight against democracy and true
populism. This is really a hello of a
country for justice, maddened de-
ceit, hypocracy and supposed fair
devision. And all this under a demo-
cratic and populist fusion county ad-
ministration. If the inharmonious,
flip flopping element can thus secure
fuel to fire the furnace of dissention
and disruption what little harmony I ing the point, on anything he under-
there is will soon become weary and J takes he is a success.

A commercial traveler who was in
town recently told a story that seems
good enough to repeat. In a certain
town there was a man who never fail-
ed to worm his way in when some-
body "set 'em up." He was never
known to refuse an invitation to
drink, and neither could the oldest
rounder recall a time when this in-
dividual had ever loosened up suflic-
ently to "set 'em up" to anyone else.
Because of his capacity and his habits
he was referred to as "the human
sponge." In the course of years
"the sponge" finally shuffled off this
mortal coil and was laid away in the
local cemetery without any unseemly
manifestations of grief. Soon after-
ward one of the principal victims of
the deceased surprised and shocked
the rest of the "boys" by circulating
a subscription paper to raise funds
for a monument to "the sponge."
Th«y contributed under protest, and
after the monument had been placed
In position all of them were invited
out to have a look at it. It was a
large slab covering the entire grave.
It gave the name of the deceased in
small letters, and following it in
large type that covered the rest of
the stone was this inscription:
BOYS, THIS IS ONE ON ME.
The "boys" felt that they had final
ly got their money's worth.
A Chance All.

Frankie Greer, through Charley
Greer, has reserected the El Reno
Daily American. Thus, once more
the old adage that "fools enter
where angels fear to tread" has been
proven up. Then again where one
set of "misguided men fail another
set can always be found to try the
scheme over again. However, Frank
Greer has a territorial printing graft
to sustain the expense of the burden.
It is only a question of how much
straining the printing graft will sus-
tain.
