The Philadelphia Record booms King
fisher AS follows: The town of Kingfsher,
Oklahoma, has not been long enough
built to take good root and the cyclone
has found it out and given it very ugly
twist. The spring zephyr in any of the
prairie states is apt to swell into blast Of |
death and desolation, and no fabric made |
by human hands can stand before its !
heightened fury when it strikes a gyratory !
motion and enters upon the task of scat
tering ruin over the face OF the earth.
Purcell Topic: We hear that Bill Paul, |
aged 10. and Maggie Wilson, aged IA, were |
married yesterday at Norman. The |
youthful groom is son of Smith Paul of /
Paul Valley, father of the late Sam Paul. |
The marriage will occasion a sensation in |
the vicinity of Paul Valley, on account of I
the extreme youthfulness of the parties |
and the opposition to it on the part of the !
parents of both the bride apd groom.
A party coming from the Cheyenne and |
Arapahoe lands reports remarkable |
natural curiosity as having been discovered
among the mountains in the extreme
western part of the territory. There is
small lake which is fed by numerous
streams and has but one outlet. This out
let is quite large stream and flows
toward the hills instead of away from
them as streams ordinarily do. 1t is in
part of the country which has heretofore
not been investigated on account of the
rough nature of the surroundings, but the
search for good claims has led the new set
tiers into every nook and corner of the
new country within the past week. Two
men followed the outlet stream towards
the hills, where it disappeared by entering
a hole in the ground IL did not decrease
and gradually siepe into 1.-THE ground, but
poured it's full volume down into the
hole and completely went from sight
They searched long and cereful to find
where it again came to the surface,
but could find no such place. IL is be-
Iieyed that the stream flows clear under
The hills and comes out in the Cana
iian river at a point almost due east OF
" here it disappears. This belief is braught
about by the lact tnat at the point mem
toned the Canadian suddenly swells to
almost double its proportions further up
and there is no apparent cause for this
sudden increase Of dimensions.
