Berkeley Temple boys are to take a vaca-

point of land south of and adjoining Mr..

prove a novel and interesting treat. Mr.
Dickinson's friends are always glad to see
and hear from him and to help at any time.
Perhaps the old motto, Omitted we stand
divided we fall" is ever new.

Monday noon we were visited by the
first thunder shower of the season. The
play of electricity was magnificent. The
lightning ran on the telephone wire a
short distance close to the schoolhouse,
but as it was at the noon hour the children
were at dinner. On the upper street it
struck the ground near the residence of
Miss Susie Leach, making the dirt fly;
also near the residence of A. f. Brigham,
and at Walpole bridge ripping off few
boards. Quite heavy shower came on at
dark, blowing down large tobacco barn
and demolishing four trees on the Marvin

AFTER COLONEL ROSS.

Harry Bacon and Il. w. Black His
Trail.
A Washington special says: Robert
w. Black and Harry Bacon, both Of
Oklahoma territory, today filed a bill
OF equity against Mahlon Ashford and
Adls b. Brown, trustees, and the
American Security and Trust com =
pany. The suit grows out of the en-
ployment Of Ross by complainants to
collect claim against the govern
ment, known as the Choctaw claim.
Complainants claim Ross collected
$40, 900, Of which he was to have one
third for his services, the remainder
TO be equally divided between com
plainauts. The latter assert that
Ross has paid them but Sio0 each and
refuses to account to them Tor the
remainder. August %, 1898, they al
lege that he purchased property from
Kennedy & Davis for $4,000, a deed
being made in the name of his wife.
To secure the American Security and
Trust company, he gave deed of
trust TO Ashford and Browne Tor 81, 900
The property is stated TO be worth
s15, 900, and complainants ask that
Mrs. Ross hold the same for their use
and benefit; that Ross may be required
TO account for the sum received by
him from the government and that
he may be decreed to pay them two
thirds such amount

GuTnRiE. Sept 14.-It appears TO me
that political and social conditions as
now existing suggest, that we the col
ored voters in this territory, should
rid ourselves OF all squamish sentimen-
talities, and like white men, pursue
such a course in politics aud other
activities as will promote our well
being n all the various relations OF
life. With a magnificent country to
develop, the colored voter holds his
destiny in his ov hands aud can
either make or IN ir hi~ future, 10y the
course he may now elect TO pursue.
Should the prcjudjces existing in
other parts of the ouniry find lodg-
ment here, and of which there are al
ready some manifestations, the las
opportunity for establishing an equal
ity with other classes Of citizens shall
have faded away forever And our
numbers, the political power it Sc
cures, II inteiligently exercised, will
leave us an open track in tins terri
tory with all its brilliant possibilities
1t is quite clear, that as class our

cised and hampered in our efforts to.

than that of our color, which symbo-
lises certain pre-conceived and pre-
determined unfavorable conditions in

faction. This ought not to continue
Combinations as colored men in bust
ness, politics, etc, will secure for u
all that is now withheld. We ar
fully aware of the danger OF such
course, but it is the only way out

Here is the definition Of mouth, as
given by young lady of this city:
"Mouth-The mouth is the front door
of your face. 1t is the aperture to
the cold storage of your anatomy.
Some mouths look like peaches aud
cream and some like a hole in the
brick wall chopped there TO admit a
new door or window. The mouth is a
hotbed of toothaches, the bunghole OF
oratory and baby's crowuing glory
II is the crimson aisle 90 your liver

tain head and the tool chest for pie.

II is the grocer's friend and the

out it married life would be perpct-
