YOUNG PEOPLES SOCIAL.

A large number of the members Of the
Young Peoples Bible class Of the Baptist
church held social gathering last evening
at the residence OF their pastor Rev. |. w.
Reed No. 31S North Waco avenue. About
seventy-five were present and all greatly
enjoyed the reception. Mr.. and Mrs. Read
entertained their young friends with their
accustomed warmhearted greetings.
Many new acquaintance were made. Fo-
cal, piano and guitar music enlivened the
occasion. The large and elegantly morroc-
CO bound photograph album of the class
was for the first time brought out for pub
lie inspection. This album is worthy of an
extended notice and its origination and
promoters are deserving great praise for
the successful manner in which they have
made it possible to bring out worthy en-
terprise. 1t is exceedingly large, with
spaces for 300 cabinet photographs, many
already supplied and others soon
to be placed therein. The name
of the class is embossed in large gold let-
tiers upon the side and back. This album
and the class record book will become of
more and more value as the years go by
and their careful preservation will be in
sured in valuable case made for the pur-
pose Among those present were: F. A.

PRESENTATION GOLD WATCH.

The Rev. NJ. L. Gates and family on in
vitation spent last night at the residence
of Mr.. r. E. Guthrie, Jr., and early in the
evening a number of friends called with a
surprise in store the reverend gentleman
who was spending his last night in the
city prior to his leave for pastoral work in
New Jersey. After passing the compli-
ments of the evening Mr.. II. L. Smithson
was selected to present Rev. Gates with a
fine gold watch. In doing so he spoke in a
feeling manner of the relations that had
existed between pastor and members and
asked him to accept it as token of esteem
in which he is held.
Rev. Gates was taken completely by sur
prise and in reply stated that he would
ever look back upon his work in Wichita
with happy renembrances.
Speeches were made by DR.. Stevenson
c. F. Coffin and Rev. Guthrie, ST. After
singing "God be with you until we meet

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS,

At meeting of the county commission
ers yesterday 5000 was appropriated for a
bridge across Little river. on the line be-
tween Kechi and Wichita townships.
The bid of the Wichita Pump and Sup
ply company for putting up windmill on
the poor farm was accepted; considera-
ton, S415.
The board made visit to the new court
house in the afternoon and inspected the
works. While everything seems to be go
ing along rapidly and entirely satisfacto-
ry, the job is such a big one that it will
take many months to finish it. The board
seem to think the time has come when the
contractors can rush the work as rapidly
as possible and no danger of bad effects.
AS to the time for completion there seems
to be a difference of opinion. ranging from
next fall to next fall year.

OKLAHOMA PREPARATIONS
The Old Soldiers Colony Leave This Morning.
Figurin. ON Branch Business Estab-
lishmenss in Oklahoma.

The Oklahoma talk had greatly increased
yesterday and one could see squads on
every corner figuring on how to get into
that country very shortly after the hour
admitting them. 1t wat not difficult to
see boomers and Oklahoma settlers They
were on the streets in great numbers. In
termingled were few specimens of wild
west limitations with the exception
of fire arms visible. The long
hair, high boots hiding the lower rounds
of the pants, broad everlasting hats ac-
cording to county commissioner Duncan
slightly reminded him of early days. 1t
was in all variety scene. The strangers
bound for Oklahoma settlers, few orig
inal boomers, the small spriRkhng of
plainsmen furnished scene that was a
clever entertainment within itself.
ARRIVALS.
On Sunday nearly one hundred old
soldiers arrived from Maryland, Pensyi-
vania and West Virginia. They have
Joined the Wichita colony and take their
chances for good with them. There were
quite number arrived from Iowa but no
organized colony. The old soldiers colony
leave this morning IN wagons for Oklaho-
and VIM. Kay is quartermaster. They
take with them rations that will
last ten days. Most of the
wagons are covered, and many are taking
with them small allowance of furniture
and such articles for housekeeping as are
first needed. Some will take their wives
with them, but as rule they will go
down by rail. The colony will make a
march to Kingfsher and il is said they will
make an effort TO get located near that
point. As to prospects of getting across
the streams, one of them said he had no
fears of their inability to get across the
Cimarron, no matter if it should be on
high from bank to bank. He seemed TO
think the old soldiers had overcome many
difficulties more hazardous than
that, and arrangements had been
made to get across some way if
not by one plan by some other.
IN BUSINESS IN OKLAHOMA.
Quite number of business men in the
city are going to start branch business in
Oklahoma. They propose to get there
early and do business from the first.
Among them is Mr.. S. Billings. the pro-
duce man, who has alrerdy ordered goods
occupying, twelve cars which will be
booked for early arrival.
The Carey Lombard lumber company,
with headquarters in Wichita will have
twelve yards in that country in flash af-
ter the 22nd inst. They have already Or
dered eight hundred car loads of lumber
Mr.. Maryan Cox and L. NJ Cole have de-
cided to cast anchor at Kingfisher with
a huge tent and hotel outfit.
They propose to run the hotel business
with free air and tent accommodations
during the summer season and by the
time heavy frost comes may be prepared
to accommodate their guests with COW
ering more suitable for the season.
Some of the gun shops in town are fig
uring on opening up business in Oklaho-
ma The trade yesterday was booming;
over one hundred Winchesters sold and
double that number of revolvers.

BANANA SHOWER,

The interesting Banana man who fur
nishes music for Cash Henderson, met
with quite financial accident yesterday.
He was spinning out poetry as usual to
attract attention and create an appetite
for his fruit when his horse became fright
ened at something and started north.
The bananas were dumped out in line
clearly pointing out the route of the run
away. The boys, and in fact some hungry
men had picnic and very soon there was
no evidence of bananas in the street, but
On the sidewalk the slippery wrecks were
attracting attention.
Some are so unkind as to accuse Cash of
being responsible for the runaway hoping
to get rid of the noise in front of his es-
tablishment
