A KINK RAIN.
The Chickasaw Nation Visited
s Regular Galley Washer
Last Night.
by
One of tbe heaviest rains of the
season fell upon the oity of Chick-
asha and the Cbiokasaw nation last
night. Tbe rain began about i!
o'clook snd continued with more
or less violence all night long. It
was agulley washer a regular old
seaker. and will be of great benefit
to tbe farmers and cattle raisers iu
furnishing abundant stock water
for tbe winter.
Tbe rain seems to have been gen
eral arJ from reports received
from persons living in the sur-
rounding couotry the shower Was
n.uch harder In tbe country than
in town. The Washita river and
contributary streams sre said to be
badly swollen in places and diffi-
cult to ford.

They were tail iated into the mys.

The nobles and novices antici-
pated considerable fun as a ban.
qaet snd a big time always accom-
panies a meeting of the order.
There is also considerable amuse-
ment to be derived from witnessing
the ceremony.
Tbe crowd returned home this
morning tired from the night's
work but pleased with the initia-
tions. They 'wero also accoui-
panied by Mr. Gilbert a well
known attorney of Lawton .Judge
Oenney of Duncan and Dudley
Brown of Lawton .
PROBABLY A HOAX.
Mrs. King who Claimed to Have
Been Robbed Had
Not Been.
It now develops that the etory
told in last nights' Express con-
cerning Mrs. King's robbe'y
was a hoax or if it occurred at al
took place at Anadarko or some
other place than Cbickasha.
OfhYer Khriver from whom the
Express first learned the story
thinks that tbe woman landed iu
town broke and claimed to have
lieen robbed in order to obtain
sympathy or more probably assit-
tance from oar people as a sub-
scription paper was started for her.
She afterwards told her story to a
representative of the Daily Ex-pre-s
and told it with aucb ap
parent sincerity and truthfulness
that he had no reason to disbelieve
her.
The woman and her family will
probably be shipped back to Ana
darko where she oame from.
Mayor R. 8 Scoffern and City
Attorney Alger Mellon who went
to Chicago a week ago to ascertain
the legal stateus of our water-
works situation returned from
their mission this morning. They
will make their report to the city
council at its next meeting and it
will be heard with interest by the
people ot Uhickasba as well.

BLACK POLK CATTLK.
Held on the Johnson Campbell
Place for Quarantine
to be Raised.
Mrs. W. 8. Birge and family re
cently visited one of the line
ranches with which Cbickasha is
surrounded and Mrs. Birge gives
us the following account of some
of the valuable blooded cattle they
saw. The Express is only sorry
it is unable to reproduce the kodak
views which Miss Willie Birge ob-
tained of a part of tbe herd:
"A herd of Blaok Poles belong
ing to Ben Craven a Rock Island
magnate baa been held on tbe
Washita river seven miles west
from Cbickasha for the past three
weeks waiting for tbe national
quarantine line to be raised.
"This herd is shipped from the
owner's great ranch near San An-
tonia and ll destined to some
point in lows. There were 140
head and tbe foreman said they
were worth $40000. He was un-
easy about one cow which is 17
years old and waa imported di-
r-ot !raiu Scotland.
"'We will do every thing wecan
to 'pull h-ir through' hesaid. 'She
has 5000 worth of stuff in this
bunch. We work with them all
gently and tick them standing in
the cbute.'
'They were drinking bathiug
and ecjoyibg the beautiful water j
of tbe Washita except one cow
and young calf in the lot which
the foreman said was worth $500
and a male in a stall valued at
1 1500. We wished to make a
picture of him but the fl'cs made
hiie restless. The lithe young
Mesioan attendant quickly put on
his halter and held Leonaire while
we 'caught him.' "
IT'S THE TRU'l ri.
El Reno "Democrat" Sizes Up the
Young Men of this Pro-
gressive Age.
Many of onr young men aie so
exquisitely culticated and so pio
foundly educated as to be good for
nothing. El Reno has a popula
tion of 7000 aouls. yet there is not
a balf dozen young men in town
that are worth their salt to a news'
paper as a solicitor as a news
gather or a mechanical foreman
There is not a half dozen good
bookkeepeia to be found in the
city outside of those engaged in
business for themselves. Type
writers that are acquainted with
the ordinary rudiments of orthog-
raphy arc as scarce aa hens teetb.
Good stenographers that can write
what you speak and read what
they write after it gets cold are
as great a curosity to look upon as
the Siamese twina or the Cardiff
Giant. If a man desired to go to
market and wanted a young man
to leave in charge of his business
posessed of a good business edu-
cation and some experience In the
common affairs of life that would
fit him for tbe trust he would have
to send away for him or lock np
his store. The demand for young
men of integrity sobriety eduoa
tiou and experience in doing some-
thing useful in life exceeds tbe
supply tenfold. This a sad com-
mentary on the community but a
true one El Reno Democrat.
Owing to the extremely bad
weather last night the dance
scheduled to come off at the Mur-
ray ball on Sixth and Chickasha
avenue failed to materialize. Mr.
Fitzsimmous the manager did not
even open up the ball as he knew
no one would be in attendance.
Fitz has about come to the conclu-
sion that Thursday night is a
"Jonah" to dancing so he has
changed the night to Tuesday
when the dances will be held here-
after. Mrs. Smith and son Cecil of
Chickasha were transacting busi
ness in Anadarko vesterdav and
spent part of the day with Elder
Urogan and wife. Anadarko
Democrat.
A COOL PROCEEDING.
Horae and Bugggj Appropriated
Without the Consent of
Their Owner.
Wedneaday night after the usual
hours of business were over Mr
L. D. Stone of tbe Pboenix gro
cery was engaged in work on his
books until iiuite a late hour.
When he had finished and was pre
paring to leuve he found that his
horse and buggy which he bad
left hitched in front of his store
were missing. He was obliged to
walk home aud was not a little
worried over the whereabouts of
his property. Yesterday morning
"ucu ue reiurneu to tin place of
business be found horse and buggy
hitched where he had left them
early the previous evening. He
offers a liberal reward for any in-
formation of the party or parties
who made such unseemly use ot
his property.
