O. .1. Wrighlsiiian: I have been in
formed l»y the authorities of the Sat.tn
Fe that the extension of the road from
Pawn* * lias been deolaied olT for this
year. The company made no appro-
priation for building new lines this
year, and operations along this line
will cease for about eight inbnths.
Yes, the republican platform was one
of the poorest thut party has ever put
out. There will he no comparison be-
tween it on the one which will lie
framed at Kansas City, as a vote win-
ner.
John W. Henderson: It is nut gen-
erally known, but 1 attest to the fact
that P. O. Buclier. assistant cashier of
the Arkansas Valley bank, is one of
the best violinists, that ever rendered
music in Pawnee. Passing uloiig a
residence street in town the other
night and hearing some music, 1 look-
ed towards the house from whence
cameVhe melody, and was surprised
to see my old friend Bucher, wielding
the bow, lie showed himself to be
a master in the art of violin playing.
1 hope we may hear him in public at
some not far distant dale.

li. K. Wilkeraon: “People will no
doubt be surprised tn learn that the
wheat crop in many portions of Okla-
homa is. utmost an entire failure. Thj
..crop in my vic.nily will not makeover
fifteen bushels to tha acre. If my crop
of thirty acres yields me three hun-
dred bushels, it will meet my expecta-
tions. The reason fur the fuilure is,
that when the wheat was in bloom
there were three very hot, still days
just alter a heavy ram, which killed
the blossom at the top of the head. 1
have nott ->-d this before. If the wind
! dqes i it blow sullicient ly to keep the
| wheat in motion during a hot day after
1 a ruin wheh. the wheat is in bloom, it
is invariably killed. The quality of
the grain is good but the heads are
only about one-third tilled. Reports
similar to this are coming in from
other parts of the territory."
L. P. Mosier: “I attended services
recently held by Faith Cure believers.
One of tlie features of the services
was the curing of infirmities. The
preacher in charge called for anyone
who might have some affliction of the
body and who wished to be cured to
come forward. Oi.e lady responded
and tne operation of faith cure waa
made. At its close the patient an-
nounced that she waa cured. The
remarkable part of tlie occuranee was,
that the operator, being a little deaf,
misunderstood the patient wben aha
told him her eye* were weak, under-
standing her to say "side," and per-
formed his work according to this un
demanding."
