"OUR BOYS. The "boys" from
Vinita who attended the celebration
and barbecue last Saturday without
doubt enjoyed themselves. After the
the "devotionals" dancing began. As
a precautionary measure Hardin Trott
was requested to test the floor while
the congregation waited for the choir
to render an anthem or a quadrille.
The orchestra" broke forth in a soul
stirring, hair-raising strain and Henry
Eifert with a Coo-y-yah damsel on his
arm led the dance. For q moment he
assumed the attitude of Roman mar
tyr and ordered the musicians to "git
thar" They did and so did everybody
else. Claude Shelton who in the
meantime had been hiding out in the
brush, at the first screech OF the fiddle
hove into sight. 1t only took Claude
a mighty short time TO catch on. The
first set, according to Charley Poole's
expressed opinion was "a Jim dandy"
and inspired considerable courage.
The second was no better and pretty
soon viii Ward showed up but re
marked that "liie was too short to in
dulge in vanities," and then repaired
TO an ice-cream bazaar. The third set
found Joe Holland on the floor with a
young lady encased in blue flannel on
bis arm and danced until Hardin and
Henry Eiffert carried him of TO the
hack which took the gentleman back
to the station. Spiker Of Chouteau,
after gorging himself with roast beef,
lemonade and Ice cream, "took up
the cue" and played the game for all
II was worth, but Hardin "chased dat
squirrel" till IL ran round the tree,
and Joe Schnell caught the "little dar-
lint" In his armsl 0rville Rives said
when the party returned that he wish
cd he had been along, but he had to
squeeze huckleberry" at home. On
Sunday all the boys except Holland ap-
peared in high spirits. and when il was
asked what was the matter, he replied
"She had a husband |" Judge Tom
Howie, owing 10 his experience in the
commissary department in the United
States army, laid in a good supply OF
the "needful," and had a jolly good
timc at home.

WHAT THE PRESS HAS DoNE.-We
are inclined TO the opinion that
few people recognize the power en-.
bodied in the printer-or rather, the
press, if 1t pleases you better. 1t has
done wonderful things-made presi-
dents, killed poets, made advertisers
millionairs, and made the world get up
to roll-call every morning. 1t has
given the pulpit lungs of iron and a
voice of steam. II has curtailed the
power of kings, land would-be some
bodies) bursted rings, exposed frauds
and brought criminals to punishment.
II has converted bankers into paupers,
and made wood-sawyers of college
presidents; educated the homeless and
robbed the philosopher Of his reason.
1t smiles and kicks, and cries and dies,
but ii can't be run to suit everybody,
and the editor who tries it, will soon
consider himself the biggest fool Of all.
