Is said to be the owner of many
RAIL ROAD SYSTEMS
AND EQUIPMENTS
While this man is enjoying the untold riches you shouldn't
overlook the fact that VINITA has a Railroad Magnet within her
borders a man that is the owner of many Railroad Systems Saw
Mills and Manufacturing Plants which would make many a -heart
gladto be the possessor of any one of them. These great systems
have been bought during the great financial crisis and at a figure
far below their actual value which means that competitors are
compelled to pay as much for them as we are asking you. These
systems are now on display one of 'which the greatest in the
west may be seen in the window of the present owner.

Bank of Miami Did Not Open
Business This Morning
For
I
Special to the Daily Chieftain.
Miami Okla. Deo. 7.-The Bank of
Miami did not open its doors for busi-
ness this morning but it is thought
that the suspension is only temporary.
The bank had a capital of $30000 and
carried deposits to the amount of $80-
000. The failure of the National
Bank of Commerce at Kansas City is
the principal cause of its suspension
I as they had several thousand dollars
j tied up in that institution; No one
4 in Miami doubts but that the bank
will open up in a few days on a more
solid foundation than ever. The clos-
) ing of the bank did not create any ex-
citement here as the people have the;
utmost confidence In the bank's abili-
I ty to pay every dollar to depositors.
The stockholders and directors wil
hold a meeting Monday and it is
; thought they will arrange to reopen
I the bank at once.
Arthur Wise returned to Spaviaaw
last night after a visit with Louis
Zeno.
I The Eebekah had a good meeting
last night and elected officers as fol-
lows: Noble Grand Mrs. J. K. Taylor;
Vice Grand Mrs. II. M. Williams;
Secretary Miss Myrtle Ellis;
Treasurer Miss E file Cox. i
CRISIS PASSED
Kansas City Mo- Dec I. There
were no evidence of a run on any local
banks in the early hours today. Bank
officials generally gave it bs their
opinion that the crisis resulting from
the failure yesterday of the National
Bank of Commerce was over and that
normal condition would soon exist
again. Many depositors were reassure
by declarations of officials of that in-
stitution that it would not only pay its
depositors in full but that th stock-
holders also would loose nothing. One
of the three small banks that closed
yesterday the First National Bank of
Argentine Kansas re-opened for busi'
ness this morning. The bank has
deposits of a quarter of a million of
dollars and the cashier says it Is in
a perfectly sound condition.

Horrible Disaster in Pittsburg Dis-
trictBelieved That Men
Caught Like Rats in a
Trap are Dead.
Pittsburg Dec. 6. A terrific and
disastrous explosion occurred today in
mines No. (I and 8 of the Consolidated
Coal Co. at Monongah W. Va .
Mine Supt. Malon says at least tlve-
hundred men are entombed. It is be-
lieved a majority of the entombed are
killed. The bodies of 3 miners were
recovered near the mouth of mine No.
a.
It is feared the accident will turn
out to be the worst in the history of
mining in this country. Supt. Malon
says he does not think any of the 500
men could escape alive from the forces
of the explosion.
Special cars were dispatched from
Fairmont to the vcene. The mine
was too lull of gas and smoke for res-
cuers to enter.
The earth seemed to be rent at the
moment of the shock
Some idea of the force of the explo-
sion may be gained from the fact that
the props from the mine were not on-
ly blowD out of the entry but were
hurled clear across the Monongahala
river.

A small audience greeted J. C. Lew
is in his rendition of "Si Plunkard"at
the Auditorium last night. The in
clement weather was largely the cause
of the small attendance. The show is
one of the best on the road and it is to
be regretted that the attendance was
not larger. Mr.Lewis said: "You have
an opera house that is a credit to your
city and the new State of Oklahoma
and your people should manifest a
greater interest in the attractions of-
fered by its management."

'A Modern Lady GoJiva." the dar-

day Dec. 10 was written by Frederick
Schrader and Lloyd M. Bingham.
It is of direct contemporary inte-est

the present day and ithe personage
being of types familiar in modern

Some Interesting Questions
Who or what causes earth-quakes
volcanic eruptions cyclones ocean
storms and railroaa wreexsr jjoes
God have any thing to do with them'
Does either God or Satan have anv-
thlng to do with the recent financial
storm? Why is there nearly ilajs
one or more deaths or suicides result-
ing from the failure of a bank or large
business firm? Does God take away
the wealth children friends health
and happiness of His people and those
that love and serve Him?
Some light will be thrown on the
questions In the morning sermon at
the Christian Church tomorrow. Each
service during the day will be brief
bright breezy and brotherly.
A cordial invitation is extended to
all.
