Several nice residences are under

that part of the city looks unusually
progressive

Mrs. W E. McCandless, is visiiing

Why, when buying a book, are we
influenced bv the auttior's name?
Why, by ai artist's' if w^ purchase a
picture?
Why do wise buyers insist upon
having a reliable name on nearly
everything they purchase'/
It is because the name attached is
the safe guard of the buyer—a pro-
tection against the palming off of In
ferior articles.
This "name guarantee" we all
look for in the most important things
we buy, and what can be more impor-
tant than our food?
Everybody knows that all intelli-
gent house keepeis are very partic-
ular aboat the buying of things to
eat and drink, a.id nobody realizes it
more than the up-to-date grocer,
who caters to the wants of hiscustoin-
ers
for instance, every real grocer
knows the reason for the universal
popularity of Lion Coffee, the leader
of all package coffees. Be knaws
that its uniform purity and high
quality have made it welcome in mil-
lions of American homes for over a
quarter of a century.
Realizing this, be cannot but hand
it out cheerfully when asked for it.
He knows that the people accept the
package as a guautee of the con-
tents
Yet there may be a few grocers
left who do not recognize that the
buyer—not tbc seller—has the right
of choice, and they may want to sell
their loose colfee (wbo knows what
it is, or where it came from?) instead
of Lion CotTee, which the customer
asks fur. and tne merits of which both
know.
In mi :h fi t. the wisest advice is:

The Palace Bakery on Monroe

Miss Dixon, a stenographer from

D M. Walker, city attorney, re
turned yesterday from a vis.t to his
home in Kentucky. Mr. Walker looks
and feels much improved after his
rest. His mamma was much delighted
to see her boy who had become attor-
ney fo. the Frisco and for the city of
Enid too. D. .VI. overlooks his r's
more than ever, since his return,
DAMAGE BY THfc STORM
Several parties report more or less
damage from the storm of yesterday.
Downey's barn northwest of Enid
was removed from the foundation.
At Mr.'Church's wheat sticks were
blown over and the grain completely
soaked. The twii raius of Saturday
and Sunday coming close after each
other will delay threshing for several
days but the great benefit to corn and
other crops makes up for the delay in
harvesting.

Breckenrldge .Lines. C. B. Ames
and Mr. Bartiett a 1 of Oklahoma
City arrived in Enid today on a spe-
cial. These gentlemen are here to
look around Enid and observe her
progress, and a'so to meet Mr. Leo-
nard a Colorado railroad contractor
who will go with them over the pro-
posed extension of the D. E. k G west.
It is reliably reported that work on
this line will be rapidly pushed at
once. We understand that it is the
intention of the officers of the road
to begin extensive operations at
once
it is well known by the business
men of Enid that railroad men have
' he ir eyes on Enid now more than ever
before and in spite of the fact that
Enid is today ahead of any other city
in Oklahoma in railroad facilities
many new additions and extensions
a~e ■ unfldently expected in the in-
future
Breardoa Case Continued.
A hotly contested case has been on
in the Prooate court for several days
arising from an application for the
appointment of a guardian for the
daughters of Mrs. Breardon. Several
church people and various other per
sons have been associated in the case.
After hearing testimony for two days
the court yesterday appointed Rev
Smith guardian for Rose iHa Breardon
and continued the case of the other
two older .girls for the hearing of
further evidence. The court room
was crowded during the entire time
of the bearing.
Mr. and Mrs. Balemau Back
Mr. Bateman, the popular conduc-
toVof the Rock Island system, who
has beeu absent from Enid for some

man is with him. Mr. Bateman has
been transferred to the southwest-

Enid, the same run he had two years
ago. Mrs. Bateman has been In

Commissary Sargent Hub Craw-
ford came in from Lawton this
morning in his shirt sleeves, llub.
never wore a coat or necktie in the
summer time. He has not forgotten
Enid where hegrew into affluence and
wealth selling groceri#s in the early
days. Hut. and bis father are now
engaged in raising cattle, horses, and
mlileson a section of school land
near Lawton. Asa little Crawford
comes every 18 months regularly they
keep Hub rustling. His appearance
hence indicates the continnance of
the boom.
Mr. A. H. Classen, capitalist, one
of tne most progressive citizens of
Oklahoma, is expected in Enid this
week to visit with the family of H.
W. Sawyer. Mrs Classen is already
here. But Mr. CUssen does not usually
spend much time in visiting and it is
known by some that he has a more
serious object in view. It was he who
promoted the street car company in
Oklahoma City and triumphed over
tremendous odds—In fact everyone
else seemed to think Classen was
going broke. But not only was the
Oklahoma City line a big success, but
largely through Classen's influence
the interurban line between Oklaho-
ma City and Guthrie was undertaken,
which is now in course of construction
The company building the same owns
the Guthrie city line also.
With the success of this undertak-
ing Mr. Classen and his associates
contemplate pushing out farther and
it is well understood th^t Enid i« the
next objective poiut. It is believed
that a car line here w uld not only
pay better than in Guthrie because
of the transportation between depots !
but also that alarge amount of money 1
could be realized on the sale of real |
estate if proper methods of procedure I
were followed This was done in Ok-1
lahoma City on a large scale. Enid!
is now just about where Oklahoma I
City was when her car line was start-
ed and is growing with as great ra- j
pidity. The opportunity for invest-!
ment therefore seems splendid.
Added to this is the fact that Enid
has-no cities surrounding her to the1
north, west, southwest, or south for j
many miles—much farther than either
Oklahoma City or Guthrie have, and
hence an interurban line would carry j
to Enid a vast amount of trade from
the small towns within a radius of'
say fifty miles.
While it is realized that a franchise
secured in Enid at this time for <tny j
public enterprise such as a car line
would undoubtedly become very valu-
able in the course of a few years with
the city's expected growth, still it is
generally felt that in order to help
develop the city and'encourage local
investments a franchise should be
granted on the most favorable terms
consistent with safety and adequate
guarantees to the city. Several
members of the council have indicat-
ed their willingness to grant a fran
chise for a car line if it is positively
shown that the company intends to
build and not to speculate. As sever-
al other parties are already figuring
on Enid as a good place to build a
street railway it is quite probable
that definite propositions will be
made to the city before long.
Mr. Classen made known his inten-
tions concerning a car linr in Eoid
some months ago, but has not looked
into the details of the matter yet in
full.
Cigars Free to Everybody.
Major Jensen was sworn in as clerk
of the district court this morning,
following the acceptance of the re.
signation of John Renshaw. The
Major is well known to Enid people.
Both the outgoing and the incoming
clerks set up cigars to all callers.
After this supply is exhausted it is
understood that Mr. Fiilebrown will
continue the hospitality and the at-
torneys be provided with a perpetual
supply of Rothenbergers by the sev-
eral assistants who continue to hold
officc.
