hoveling over you; if you are not ai bright,

The Bank of Douglas, in Douglas
23 miles out on tU D. K. & G. road
was robbed yesterday morning before
daylight. The safe was blown open
and $">.077 were extracted, fully cov-
ered by Insurance. Sheriff Kershaw
and bis entite help have been engag-
ed in running the robbers in. There
they stole a team which was brought
to Enid and sold, which is the clue
the Sheriff is working under. All
law abiding citizens are hoping that
this band of burglars will be brought
to justice. It wa- reported to the
Wvv E that the Bank of Covington
was robbed the same night, but the
report lacks confirmation.

Ihe Wave is pleased to take the
following extracts from a comunica-
tion from John M. Van Trees to his
home paper in Washington Indiana.
He promised to give lOnid a special
write up soon.
From the Washington ind. Democrat
John M. Van Trees of this city is
011 a trip through Oklahom to see the
country and on a visit to his brother
Henry, who went west a few years
ago.
In a letter to the Democrat he says
of Oklahoma,
"It is a strong assertion to make,
but I assure you it is a true one, that
more progress has been made here in
the short time Oklahoma has been
opened to settlement then was made
in the great Northwestern Territory
in fifty or sixty years.
• The country is nearly all prairie,
so far as I have observed except in
the vicinity of Guthrie and Oklahoma
City and it requires little or no clear-
ing up. Apparently all that is requir-
ed is a strong team to break the sod. j
Many of the fields are of imense size
and it looks like a big undertaking
to plow tffem. 1 noticed some farm-
ers plowing with live horses abreast
and making live or more furrows at
a time.
All kinds of ftuits and melons are
abundant here and are grown with
little difficulty. Wheat seems to be
the principal crop, though corn and
cotton are grown in large quanities.
The weather is extremely hot dur-
ing the day, though a strong wind
blows nearly all the time, ar.d the
nights are cool and pleasant. Water
is go id and abundant and is easilv
obtained for stock and bouse use bv
drilled wells and pumped '<y the wind
mill process. Windmills are seer
everywhere and are so managed as t.
furnish a gi o I tire protection.
"All the towns havi water works,
electric light-, etc. and school housi s
and churches are is plentiful ;i- in
older states. Oklahoma is literally
a land (lowing with milk and honej
'ihe management was slow in ow-
ning the Opera House this a. tr. for
the reception of the pretty babies of
the county, hence, the litt!-, ones
and their escorts crowded the side
walk for a time. The attendance was
good and the interest manifested was
most wonderful.
Judge Cromwell was in charge
I and of course he had a hard job befor
him.
•ludge Cromwell very properly se-
lected an out of town man as judge I
one who did not know one baby from
another or the parents theoeoff. The !
Wave believes that the contest wr.s f
carried on fairly and the prettiest
babies, according to the judgement
of the Judge, were selected.
The Judge of the babies was an out
of town man, J. McGee, of Hutchin-
son, Kansas. The babies were all so |
nice that it made the Judge sweat to
make a decision.
The following babies, twentv-Hv
in number, were entered. Alice Ken-
nedy, a sweet little girl was given the
first prize, the $25 baby buggy offered
b\ the Schaeffer Furniture Co.
Hoosevelt Ross, a bouncing baby boy,
drew second prize, a live dollar gold

f'll Skin And blood diseases cured.
Mrs M. L. Adams, Fredonia Ala,,
took Botanic Blood Balm which effect-
ually cured an eating cancer of the
nose and face. The sores healed up
perfectly, many doctors had given up
her case as hopeless, hundreds of
cases of cancers, eating sores, supper-
ating swellings, etc. have been cured
by Blood Balm. Among others, Mrs
B. M. Guerney, Warrior Stand, Ala.!
her nose and lip were raw as beef,
with offensive discharge from the eat-
ing |sore. Doctors advised cutting
but it failed. Blood Balm healed the
the sores, and Mrs. Guerney is as well
as ever. Botanic Blood Balm also
cures eczema, itching humors scabs

I brother of Walter Swofford, who, to-
gether with "Bert" Casey and his
' gang" of outlaws, terrorized all Ok-

the sheriff of Caddo county, in the
northern part of the county, Wcd-
staies. The movement was the larg-
esi of its kin 1 to be recorded in a
sing e day In the history of Western
rulroads. The occasion was the first
Texiis, L'luis.ana, Calliforna and other nesday. When arrested Swofford
had several stolen horses, saddles,
guns and much ammunition. - He is
wanted by thecourtsfor almost every
offense on the criminal calendar, in-
cluding murder, robbery and horse
stealing. These captures have land-
ed practically the last of Oklahoma's
"bad men" behind the bars. Several
I minor bands are reported fleeing to

The failure of the electric li

houses, streets or carnival, was the
excruciating circumstance of the
week's festivities. It marred the
Pleasure of the week very much and
created much angry feeling against
the management of the plant. ljUsl.
