Guthrie, July 23—The following

-Carload Will a„ Norman:
‘Your committee appointed to visit
C. A. McNabb, who has charge of
the agricultural and horticultural
exhibits from Oklahoma at the world’s
fair, has written to the secretary of
the territorial board of agriculture
that he wants 100 of the best water-
j melons grown in Oklahoma this year.
These melons should weigh from 50 to
100 pounds each. Any melon grower
who wants to send an extra large
melon should prune or pinch off all
of the melons but one or two, supply
plenty of water to the roots and the
vine and then watch them grow.
Mr. McNabb also states that a car-
« load of Oklahoma watermelons of

desires to submit the following report:
“There are detained in the asylum
434 patients, classified as follows:
White males over 16 years of age, 259:
white females over 16, 130: white males
under 16 years, 2: white females under
16 years, 1; black males over 16 years,
25; black females over 16 years, 17.
“The health of the patients in the
asylum is excellent There is not a
case of serious acute illness in the
entire asylum; the patients seem wel
nursed and well cared for. We exam-
ined carefully the quality and the
amount of food and water supply and
have no criticism to make in this re-
port. The sanitary conaitions of the
institution at this time leaves nothing
prize quality is wanted at the world’s to be suggested. It is as nearly per-
fair Oklahoma day, September 6. Any
parties having melons, fruits, vege-
tables or other products of extra fine
quality which they desire to have
exhibited at the world’s fair should
correspond either with Mr. McNabb
who may be reached by addressing in
care of Oklahoma world’s fair com-
mission at St. Louis, or with Secre-
tary J. B. Thoburn of the territorial
board of agriculture at Guthrie.

Guthrie, July 22. — Secretary Tho-

viously announced for the annual
meeting of the Lincoln county farm-

of a disagreement as to the time for
the meeting. Another date will be

“We find that this institution con-

20 gallons of milk and about 17 pounds
of butter, with a sufficient quantity of
good bread and vegetables of differ-
ent kinds.
“The hospitals are well equipped
and the pharmaceutical department
well stocked. The medical department
is well leaked after by the resident
physician and competent nurses.

POTEET-McCOY.
Once more two hearts that beat in
perfect unison have been entwined in
the golden mesh of matrimony.
At the hour of 9 p. m., July 24, 1904,
in the quiet home of Mrs. John Mc-
Coy, her oldest daughter, Miss Kate
McCoy, was united in holy bonds of
wedlock to Mr Albert Poteet, Rev. J,
T. Owens officiating.
Little did we think as Miss McCoy,
or Kate as we best knew her, presided
at the organ at the Christian church
in bet usual deliberate and graceful
manner, that today's rising sun would
bring into our homes the tidings of
her wedding. But pleasant surprises
always make the world happier.
Miss McCoy is one of the loveliest
and most universally admired girls in
Chandler, where she has been known
from earliest childhood. The posi-
tion she occupied here in society was
tne highest and it is well known that
her sincerity, frankness and great
amiability will fit her to ornament the
best social circle in any community.

Cored of Chronic Diarrhoea After
Ten Years of Sufferitg
“I wish to say a few works in praise
of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy, ’’ says Mrs. Mattie
Burge of Martinsville, Va. “I suf-
fered from chronic diarrhoea for ten
years and during that time tried vari-
ons medicines without obtainiug any
permanent relief. Last summer oue of
my children was taken with cholera
morbus and l prooured a bottle of this
remedy. Only two doses were required
to give her entire relief. I then de-
cided to try the medicine myself, and
did not use all of one bottle before T
was well and I have never since been
troubled with any complaint One
cannot say too much in favor of tha
State Capital.
No approaching democratic con-
vention in Oklahoma has ever attract-
ed so much general attention as the
one to be held at Oklahoma City next
Tuesday.
To hear either the Jones, Mathews
or Maxey forecasts one would imme-
diately come to the conclusion that no
other than the one represented has
any chances in the convention.
But from the instructions and the
favorite sons that are not even possi-
bilities it may be gathered that the
strong candidate of the east side is
Jones. The strong candidate of the
west side is Mathews of Greer.
The element in the convention that
seems most likely to hold the balance 1 were manifested in her always greeting
of power is the populist force. To
these the mention of Dunn or Pink-
ham is the signal for a wave of eu.hus-
iasm.
But the fact that Cross is in the
race and has a friendly sort of ac-
quaintance all over the territory leads
a great many of the wise democrats to
the opinion that he will be given the
nomination as the best way out of a
bad mix and possiole split. Cross is
acceptable to all parts of the terri-
tory. He was defeated two years ago
and is in a place for sympathy as a
result of his zeal for the party. He
may get a support from his old ad-
mirers who will remember how well he
tried to make a winning campaign. It
may result in the nomination of Cross.
That would leave nobody sore.
If the populists stand firm for Dunn
and his pledge that is alleged to be
out to Jones does not prove so strong
as it has been represented to be, then
the logical man will be Dunn. It is a

The groom is a young man of exem-

Oklahoma City, July 24.—Samples
of the coal found by the Citizens Gas,
Oil, Water and Fuel company’s drill-
ers northeast of this city near Spencer
have been tested and found to be what
is known as cannel coal, a grade be-
tween anthracite and bituminous. The
drillers ai e continuing the hole farther
down and feel certain they will find
gas or oil. or both, A meeting of the
directors of the company backing the
prospecting was held today and it was
decided to make every effort in the
hope of finding gas and oil.
The four-foot vein of coal which has
been found will revolutionize the sit-
uation here as to manufacturing in-
dustries, as the fuel problem has kept
many concerns from locating here.
The vein of coal found will afford an
inexhaustible supply for all purposes
and will greatly relieve the heretofore
abnormal conditions as to the price
of fuel and the difficulty in keeping a
supply sufficient for local consump-
tion. At the meeting of the directors
of the company this morning sufficient
funds were subscribed to continue the
prospecting to a satisfactory termina-
tion. But in the meautime work will
be commenced erecting hoisting appa-
ratus and a shaft will immediately be
dug and coal hoisted before the winter
season sets in.
