The citizens of Edmond ai e
elated over the prospect of hav-
ing the first military band in the
southwest, known as Troop A
Ca airy Band, O. N. G. e
hand has made already a reputa-
tion to be envied by others, but
by reason of the unfortunate va-
cancy of the office of commander
the organization was permitted
io go uncared for. In 1904, the
band under direction of Prof.
Dimke, played at tho World 8
Fair and several other notable
points, gaining for itself f v0 *
ble comments throughout the
We are assured from personal
experience that the band is now
placed under the direction of the
most accomplished military band-
master in Oklahoma, if not in the
Southwest. Prof. Oscar Lehrer
during his early experience was
a cornetistinthe famous Jeffer-
son Barricks Band of St. Louis,
was afterwards cornetist in char^
of a government military band at
Ft. Reno and later director of the
First Regiment band 0. N._G.,at
that time stationed at Guthrie an
a fine prize-winning band of 35
members. From Guthrie Prof.
Lehrer came to this City as
member of the Normal faculty
-in which capacity he has not
only given entire satisfaction,
but has secured the confidence
of all, and his friends are legion.
The band will, when complete,
consist of at least thirty mem-
bers, with ample equipments in-
cluding uniforms, instruments,
music, etc. The present head-
quarters and rehearsels will be
tho Edmond city band rooms
opposite the Central hotel, wher
on next Thursday evening app
cations for enlistment wi.l be
ceived. •

played their opponents in every
department of the game. With a
: dry field the sfcore would have
been 15 to nothing in favor of
I the Edmond team. Nearly all of
i the game was p^yed in the rain,
making it very disagreeable for
i the players and spectators. The
' condition of the field made spec-
tacular playing out of the ques-
tion. Cook, captain of the Still-
water team, was the only man
who could gain for his team,
while Klein, Geiser, McCarrel
Martin and Gaskill all made good
gains for Edmond. In fact, ev-
ery* man on the team deserved
special mention for good work.
Klein was injured at the close of
the first half and was forced to
leave the game. Hunt, who took
his place, played a good game
considering the practice he has
had in the position.
The game was marred by the
action of the Stillwater official in
the last half. A line buck by
Geiser placed the ball one foot
from Stillwater's goal-line. Twice
did Edmond cross the line for a
touch-down, only to be denied
the score through the ignorance
or unfairness of the Stillwater f-
ficial. The second time that the
ball crossed the goal-line ono of
damaged considerably as a re-
sult of the explosion. Burglar
tools found at the Katy depot led
to the belief that three men were
implicated in the robbery and it
is believed the men boarded a
train to Oklahoma City.
An inspection of tho wrecked
safe by the bank officials showed
that all of the money, some §355
in silver, had been taken and no
time was lost in sending a mess-
age to Oklahoma City notifying
the officers of the robbery. Not-
withstanding the news of the rob-
bery was received there a short

The unique entertainment giv-

Normal assembly hall by the
Manning Glee Club was faithful
to all promises, giving to tho spa-
cious. but crowded hall, a rare
treat such aH the music-loving
people of Edmond had not heard.
Every number on the^program
was a gem of its kind, the solos
and part songs being rendered
with that skill in attack, confla-
tion and vocal compass possessed
only by cultured and well-trained
vocalists.
Our assembly hall, uiougli one
of the largest and most commo-
dious in Oklahoma, was on this
occasion filled from "foot-lights
to gallery" by an orderly and
appreciative audienca. The pro-
gram had scarcely begun when it
was evident that the sympathy of
the vast assemblage had become
the property of the singers which
fact bespeaks a merited compli
