As SI5O list had ''swiped" the
trade to considerable extent the week
before, the appearance of this circular
was the signal for an onslaught. One
firm quoted "no sugar" but offered to
put up the balance of the list for sl.2O,
leaving the purchaser s1.S0 to buy his
sugar elsewhere. Another simply Of
fered to put up the So order for s2.75.
Number one then cut his price to $3.50
and the s2.75 firm promptly made it
even money-s2-at which it stood all
day. Another firm chimed in with
seed potatoes 60c.; lbs. green or
brown coffee for 81, or lbs. broken ia
va for the same money. A tremendous
quantity of goods were sold but it is
not likely that very much money was
made on the sale Of groceries Saturday;
however, it is probably not eXtrava-
CANT to say that the 'war" will pay
many times over its cost in the infiu-
ence it will have in bringing trade to
this place. The old colored woman
who walked four miles to a neighbor-
ing town because she could buy more
snuff for a cent has her counterpart all
over the world, and many barrel OF
salt weighing 300 lbs. has been bought
at Vinita and taken a dozen or fifteen
miles, past other stores, because it sold
at sI.65 here and those stores asked
sl.65.

JTSHE LARGE AUDIENCE thai

E1SHE LARGE AUDIENCE that
4 greeted the Taylcr brothers
Monday night at the court house were
perhaps never better pleased with an
entertainment in their lives. The ex-
ercises began by the appearance OF
Hon. Alf Taylor who was introduced
by Judge Springer who had served
with him in congress. The gentleman
spoke for half an hour on the growth
and prosperity of the American re-
public, and his transcendent eloquence
held the audience enwrapped through
out; his quaint remarks with refer
ence to the "new woman" brought
down the house. Ex-Governor Bob
then followed with an GRAFTON that
was mixture of eloquence, wit, fun
and pathos, that was simply irresist
ible. The entertainment closed with
songs, iuterspersed with droll planta-
tion stories.

t4SHE CATTLEMEN, at their meet

HSHE CAIILEME EN, at tnelr meet
Z ing at Claremore last week, had
the largest attendance in the history
of the association. The organization
was continued in every respect as the
previous year, John Franklin going as
inspector TO Chicago, Billy Franklin to
st. Louis and James Runyan TO Kan
sas City. In addition to maintaining
the inspectors seven, or eight rewards
of $50 each we're paid and there re-
manned in the treasury $500. All the
old members remained with the asso-
citation and twenty-five or fifty new
ones joined this year. A tax of two
cents head was levied which inSures
plenty Of money for defraying the
years bills. No little attention will
be given this year to thefts of cattle
at home and plans which should sue
ceed in shutting off this source Of loss
now one of magnitude were
adopted.

DISTRESSING ACCIDENT,

CURED in this city Friday. In house
across the street from Nat SINNERS
old home lives the family Of Louis
Lowers, which lately moved here from
Pryor Creek, the father working w.
II. Beatly's farm. Friday evening
their little son, George, aged four
years, was sitting in a rocking chair,
back toward the stove. As the chair
rocked back it upset a vessel of hot
water upon the child's head, running
down its face and body, and scalding
the little one horribly. In this suffer-
ing condition the child lived until 1880
a. m. Monday; the funeral took place
next day from the Catholic church.

, period Is approximately 0 80 inch. Th
, deficicucy IN rainfall since March lst
, 1895, is about three and one-h al
inches.
There was more tLan; the usua
, amount OF sunshine with an average o
81 per cont for tho State. There wa
least cloudiness in the western por
tions the State and most in the eas
central portion.
Planting made rapid progress dur
ing tho week. The only unfavorabl,
condition, against the thorough prep
aratlon OF lands, was q teudaucy o.
ground to bake, or become too hare
by reason OF dryncss, and this condi
tion was confined to clay lands. Il
was too dry and cool for tho rapid ger
mination of seed and poor stands arc
IN const quence, reported ut this time
The progress Of the various crops il
briefly given below, averaging the re.
ports, whero it is possible, so rs to give
the prevailing condition, and nothing
such exceptions only that are at wide
varience with the general tenor of the
reports
Upland corn about al planted and
much OF it up or coming up. Perfect
stands the cXccptancc. Cool weather
affected it's color. Bottom lands being
planted.
Cotton planting progressing rapidly
and Is drawing to finish in tho south
eastern counties while only fairly be-
gun ia the extreme western counties.
Some carly planting is up but affected
by cool weather. Sea Island cotton is
about all planted.
Reports Indicate that tobacco will
receive considerable attention this
year. Beds do not do we'll except
whore we'll protected. So,lc farmers
are about ready to transplant.
The sowing of rice has been in pro-
grcss during the past two weeks.
Wheat is reported as locking prom
ising, but making slow growth.
There is q want Of uniformity in the
reports on the condition Of oats. some
fair to good and others fair
to poor stands. In some localities fall
sown oats are doing best in others
spring sown. The prevailing condi-
tion is no doubt promising, but oats
stand in need Of warm weather and
rain. Rye is heading.
Pastures do not rs vet afford grazing
in the central and northwestern coun-
tics.
1t is the general opinion Of CORES
poDdents that early fruit, especially
La Contc pears Ond ST. John and Al
berta varieties Of peaches, arc greatly
damaged, but that late varieties are as
yet safe. Wild lplums and berries are
putting on fruit heavily.
Gardens continue backward, but gar
dcns planted in the fall are yielding
vegetables for use now.
Shipments Of early vegetables and
fruits from the coast continues. Straw
berries. asparagus ard lettuce largely.
peas in small quantities.
Irish potatoes mostly planted and
up. Tho carly planting touched by
frot but scarcely injured. This crop
needs rain badly.
