LUTHER REGISTER.
VOL. 8.
LUTHER, OKLAHOMA, FRIDAY, ,I(JLY 11). 1907.
NO. 51.
F* W. Lain waa born in Ken-
tucky nearly 45 years ago and
died in Hot Springs, Ark., last
Friday July 12.
In his infancy Mr. Lain'a
parents moved to Illinois and it
was in that state that his boy-
hood days were spent.
When a young man Mr. Lain
came west and located in Kansas
and from there came to Oklaho-
ma and took a claim near Luther.
He has lived here for the past
11 years. He was'a-very indus-
trious man and owned throe fine
farmsS.
Mr. Lain enjoyed good health
until a couple of years ago, when
an illness left him almost an in-
valid with chronic stomach
trouble. A couplc of months
ago, he and his family started on
a trip from Luther to Colorado
and New Mexico in a wagon in
the belief that outdoor life would
be beneficial to his health. They
had proceeded as far as Granite,
Okla., when Mr. Lain was taken
worse, and it was decided to take
him to Hot Springs. But this
was unavailing, he gradually
grew \veaker and Friday passed
away.
The remains were brought
back to Luther for burial Tues-
day. Rev. Downs delivered the
funeral discourse at the Christian
church-Wednesday at Valleyview
cemetery. During the funeral
services all the business houses
were closed.
In personality. Mr. Lain was
a very pleasant and even tem-
pered man, a kind and loving
husband and father, a man who
loved his neighbor as himself^
His friends are numbered as the
entire population of Luther and
surrounding country.
A wife and two daughters sur-
vive him and to them is extend-
ed the heartfelt sympathy of all.
Ground for the new Ha milton
A Nichols building was broken
Monday, when the diggi;ag of
the foundation trenches was
commenced. The stone founda-
tion was started Tuesday and is
started and is progressing rap-
idly. A large force of men are
at work and the work is being
puahad as rapidly as possible,
The making of the ce ment
blocks continues as before and
an average of 230 per day are
being turned out. A large sup-
ply of material is on hand ao that
no delays are likely.

Got Money, Arrested
and Skioped
R. R. Beeman, a young man
from Choctaw, was in town last
week visiting friends. Wednes-
day of last week Beeman drew a
check on a bank at Choctaw for
$20 and cashed it at A. G. Cole's
store. Mr. Cole w&s notified
Tuesday that Beeman had no
money in the bank he drew the
check on. Inquiry by telephone,
located Beeman at Okemah, I. T.
Ha was arrested at that place
and deputy Sheriff Binion sent
after him.
When Mr. Binion reached
Okemah, he found that for some
reason Beeman .had been turned
loose and left town. Immediate-
ly after his release he beat; a
bank at Okemah out of $28. His
present * whereabouts is not
known.
The dance announoed for the
evening of the 29th at the Ar-
cadia hall has been changed to
the 20th.
We are in receipt of a com-
munication from Meridian per-
taining to Ezekiel Roberts as a
temperence worker but owing to
the fact that it bore no signature
we can not reproduce "it.
