In speaking about the great
convention of Democratic
Clubs at st. Louis, of the Indian
Territory portion of the pro-
ceedings the Vinita Leader
says:
About 10 o'clock, a. H.. all
the delegates from the Indian
Territory formed a procession
following the Ardmore banner
from the Southern hotel to the

elaborate banner attracted the
attention of our fellow towns

national convention, which
nominated Mr.. McKinly to
which convention Mr.. SopeT
was a delegate, he was fully
acquainted with the hall and all
its entrances. MANY thanks
to Mr.. Soper for his gallantry.
Although being repeatedly and
warmly invited to accompany

A reader knows Of a country
minister in a certain locality
who took permanent leave of
the congregation in the follow
ing pathetic manner:
Brothers and sisters, | come
to say goodbye. 1 don't think
God loves this church very
much, because none of you ever
die. / don't think you love
each other, because / never
marry any of you. / don't
think you love me, because you
have not paid my salary. Your
donations are mouldly fruit and
wormy apples. and by their
fruits ye shall know them.

MARKET LETTER
Furnished the ArdnOrsIte Dsuy BY n.
ID. Beer OF New orIeans-Aa later
estiaa Cotton sesteneat.


Saturday, Oct. 10, '96.
Dear SiI-Reports from Liver
pool today were Of an unfavor-
able tenor, thereby causing our
market to open 5 points lower.
Some outside buying imme-
diately after. in anticipation of
an unfavorable bureau report,
forced an advance of 6 points
from the bottom. Upon the
issuance of the bureau, which
made the general average 0eto-
Der condition co., per cent
against 24.2 per cent last month,
and 65.5 per cent for October
last year, prices steadied up,
but free selling by longs to
realize soon ran prices down
again, making the net loss on
the day 5 points.
The fact of the matter is, re-
ceipts continue heavy and no
inclination is shown by export
ers to take hold of spots. I'm
less a good demand for spots
should soon be established, or
an early killing frost take place,
the indications point to lower
values. Therefore, under the
existing circumstances pur-
chases, in our opinion, ought to
be made on weak periods only,
and advantage taken of eall
bulges to sell out with a profit,
because we think by so doing
contracts can be replaced at
lower figures.
Very truly yours,
III. & b. BEER.

A Unique Reference Book.

To say that it contains information of nearly universal interest, and that is, practically, obtsinsble by most readers nowhere else, is but the simple truth concerning "Alden's Living Topics Cyc- lopedia." The second volume, extend ing from Boy. to Con-, contains the lat- est facts concerning the nations, Brazil, British Empire, Bulgaria, Cape Colony, Chile, Chinese Empire, and others, and concerning three states, California, Col orado and Connecticut; also concerning six large cities, Buffalo, Brooklyn, Char leston. Chicago, Cincinnati and Cleve- land. The facts are commonly from one year to five yesrs latter than can be found in any of the leading cyclopedias, and commonly year later than the 1896 almsnacs and snpusls. We name only leading titles; besides there are hundreds of others, all of them "ilving" topics. One wonders how busy seekers after knowledge have got along without such an up-fo-date cyclopedia. The whole series of six handy volumes is to be completed during the year, and at the surprisingly low cost of Sl 90 to s3 for the set, with liberal discounts for ad- vance orders. Specimen pages may be had free by addressing the publisher, John B. Alden, 10 and P Vandewater street, New York.
