Veslerdsy's Democratic Convention
Tlic "Happy Family" met Id tlie
court room on Grand avenue yester-
day afternoon to select delegates to
the democratic powwow at Perry on
the 24th. The Disgruntled Domo-
crat—loriK, lean, lank and hungry—
was there; the Disappointed Offlco-
ueekcr with elongated face an
stomach was present, and tho •

patriot, Col. Huger Wilkinson fur
chairman. Ho was the nominee of
the Officeholders. Immediately elec-

which resulted In the nomination of

victory won. Henceforth the Office-
holders took a back seat and the 1 is-
uppolnted and Disgruntled Democrats
had It all their way. The machine

During the wait on the report of
the committee the New Graud Mogue
of the party, Kev. Sam Small, ad-
dressed hie constituency and gave
tUem largo doses of talfy Impressing
upon them that, he was the son of a
democratic sire, suckled by a demo-
cratic mother, rocked In a democratic
cradle, and all those old cheatnuta.
The crowd applauded every wormy
chestnut Just a# if they had nover
heard It before
Quite a discussion was occasioned
la getting the sense of the meeting
on the statehoud question. It didn't
seem to have any sense on that or any
other question, but was emphatically
oppo^d to allowing congross to de
clde whether single or double state
hood was preferable. Finally a reso
lutlon was adopted declaring that the
democrats desired single statehood.
It was a Presa-Garatte Waterloo
but the P-G. will up and at 'em

Tae Horrible Heath of W. K. Myers
A man by tho name of W. R. My
era, about & years of age, from South
Enid, boarded the south bound Hock
Island mldn'ght train last night at
that place, telling Conductor Heed
that he had but fifty cents and wish
ed to come to El Reno. The conduc
tor told Ulra that would pay hi. fare
no further than Hennessey and that
he would have to put him off there
When the train pulled Into Hen-
nessey the man alighted from the J
rear and of the smoking car and Jumj ■
ed onto the blind baggage as the
train was pulling out. The train was
stopped and be was put oil the plat-
form. Nothing more was seen t.f him
until just as the tralu was pulling nut
of Dover, when there was a suddea
Jar of the tralu us if the wheels were
passing over something. Tbe train
was stopped and the trainmen going
hack a aliort distance, found the body
of tbu man-horribly maugled and In
a condition almost uurecogni/zible.
• Every bone In Ms body seemed to
have been broken. K man oo the
train who knew him said that he was
not intoxicated and that he was a man
of good standing In Enid. While it
was a sad accident, do blame can at-
tach to the railroad employees for Its
occurrcncs.
K Stray Bullet
A large revolver bullet crashed
through a window Into the bed chain-
bea of Mr. Harrington's residence on
Gray street about Ove o'clock tills
morning, made Its way eight times
through heavy quilts, struck Mrs.
Harrington upon the knee, and re-
bounded to the floor. Mr. Harring-
ton was aroused by the screas is ef hia
wife and soon realised just the nar-
row escape they had from d„ath. The
bullet must have been traveling with
a great force to make Its way through
eo many thicknesses f wool and then
rebound to the ftoor. The wound is
