STORE
FULL OF EXCELLENT
BARGAINS,
Na Goods of Finer Quality Ever Brought
to The City.
A representive of the Globe and
Bell happened into the furniture
store of Messrs Wilson & Sneary this
morning and was struck with the
handsome display of very fine fur-
niture with which this store is
apparently overcrowded. Upon in-
quiry we learned that this enter-
prising Arm and their efficient clerks
were just putting the finishing
touches upon the job of unloading
and setting up two cars of new fur-
niture. of tlie very latest and most
beautiful styles and patterns.
A cursory glance over the store
showed some elegant bed room sets—
no finer ever seen in the city—at a
most reasonable price, indeed as was
all their stock of goods. The couches
and other upholstered furniture were
certainly marvels of excellence and
and beauty.
It will pay any person who con-
templates buying^o visit their store
to see them before purchasing. As
to chairs their stock contains one of
the finest lines in the territory.
They have some rockors that are
beauties indeed. Dining tables,
china closets hook cases in the latest
styles and the very best quality of
goods.
Among the special new goods re-
J. E. T Turner Vice President,
accompanied by I). F. Nicholas and
W. E. Tomilson, members of the
Elk City Oklahoma and Mexico
Colony were pleasant callers in our j agreement
office last evening. These gentle- | reached._
men were just returning from view-
ing the lands contracted for by their
company, about one-hundred thou-
sand acres lying just east of Sun
Luis Potosi being traversed by the
Mexican Central railroad and
drained by the Verde river and its
j tributaries.
These gentlemen are very enthusi-
| astic over their location and pros-
pects are forming plans for a model
settlement. Any person of good
moral character may become a stock
holder in any amount from $500 to
$1000 and have a ratio share of ;h‘
land. They have set apart 1280 acres
for Lownsite purposes which will be
divided into lots and sold to the
highest bidder at public sale and
any reins ns unsold they wi l be sold
at private sale and tile proceeds to
to be used for the improvements of
the Colony. In all town lot, deeds
will be clause prohibiting the selling
of intoxicating liquors or maintain-
ing gambling devices in penalty oj
land revolting to the Colony.
The preliminary arrangements
will be completed and deeds made
about Sept. 1st. The land is owned
by a Mexican grandeo whose title
dates hack unbroken 260 years.
These gentlemen are enthusiastic
over their prospects. They claim
that they were shown the hooks of
a sugar plantation of 207 acres
which harvested forty-five tons of
cane to the acre, for which they re-
ceived $ 14 per ton and when all ex-
penses were deducted there was a net
profit of $60.00 from this plantation,
the surveyors who surveyed
the land say that it is the
best sugar land in the republic. They
claim advantages over Louisana the
cane fields only have to be reset
every two years instead of five and
that the grinding season lasts six
months instead of two. Corn makes
from forty to seventy-five bushel
pier acre and sells for $1.60 with un-
limited demand. The soil is a deep
black loam porous and productive
The climate is delightful, being so far
south it is never cold and so high it
is never hot. Mr. Turner claims it
is the poor man’s Mecca.

PRESIDENT MAYTURN DOWN HIS PLANS
Washington, I). CL, May 8.—The
state department has received con-
firmation from its agents in China
of increase of Russian garrison in
New Cliwang and their is reason to
believe, if President Roosevelt ap-
proves, that it is preparing to lake
vigorous steps In the matter. Sec-
retary Hay Is in communication
with the president in California
and upon the hitters decision the
secretary’s oouroe will deponed. It, is
stated that the department has had
Us patience taxed by the eource of
events In Manchuria and that it now
contemplates more radical steps
than any which lias heretofore
marked negotiations between the
powers on this subject. The pro-
posed step contemplates joint action
by Japan, England and the United
States. The preceding negotiations
have been hampered by the inability
of this government to act jointly
with other nations without violating
its traditions, but it is now hinted
that some plan of co-operation witli
England and Japan may bo devised
which will have t,he effect of convin-
cing the Rue ian government of the
united determination of the three
nations to insist upon Russia's evac-
uation of Manchuria, while not
actually committing the United
States to a formal alliance. This
program is subject to the approval
of the president. If it is not looked
upon with favor by him the stale
department may fall back upon its
former method of individual repre-
sentation to Russia and ask another
explanation of happenings in Mat.-
ti curia.
Notwithstanding (lie rainy wea-
ther Thursday the members of the
Oklahoma Gun Club gathered in
■numbers to take part in ttieir an-
