He went there to be present at the

The norther that prevailed on
Wednesday and part of Thursday
made people perspire (at the nose).
Overcoats that had already been put
away for the summer were brought
out and worn without the least twang
of conscience, and even the stoves
that had been placed out of commis-
sion long ago were reinstated where
practicable. The only consolation
we poor shivering mortals had lay in
the thought the fellows up north were
catching it still worse than we.

We are informed that Joseph Lad-
ley of Stroud, Okla., has dcfinitly
decided upon putting in a short order
restaurant at this place. We under-
stand that Mr. Ladley has had much
experience in the business and will
run an up-to-date place. While there
are several of these places in Paden,
all seem to be doing well and arc not
complaining as to lack of business.
If anything, the accommodations here
are not sufficient, and we are certain
Mr. Ladley will find his business
satisfactory^ in every way.—Paden
Pioneer.
Quite a number of our citizens
went to the depot on Tuesday night
to see the special train which bore
Governor T. B. Ferguson and staff
to St. Louis, where he attends the
dedicating ceremonies of the World’s
fair buildings. The band boys don-
ned their uniforms and also hied
themselves to the station with their
instruments. After some waiting the
train was seen as it swung around
the curve west of town. The boys
struck up a lively air to
greet the chief executive of the
territory. But it is doubtful whether
the governor ever discovered their
presence for the train dashed past
the depot without even diminishing
its speed and was lost to view in the
woods of the Creek Nation before the
crowd af sight seers ever realized
that Tommy had come and gone.
Yes, gone without even so much as
bestowing on them one look, let alone
making any strenuous speech from
the rear platform of the train or
kissing any babies a la Rosevelt,
