Telephone r1atters.

j. NJ. Putnam, the telephone man,
and Dudley Ellis, a brother of one of
the owners, came over from Pineville
this morning. The latter has lately
been married and with his wife will
conduct the exchange hereafter. Mr..
Woodward and Miss Sears have been
very efficient and the service under
their management has been highly
satisfactory to the subscribers. In
settling for his Daily Chieftain,
which goes to his Pinevlle address,
Mr.. Putnam took occasion TO
say that like all the rest, he could not
get along without it,

City Council.

A session of the city council was
held this afternoon and it was decided
to take no further action on the mat
ter OF establishing public schools until
such time as the people at popular
election so order. The law provides
that an election shall be ordered by
the mayor when 20 taxpayers so re-
quest in writing. He has FIVE days in
which to act and seven days notice of
the election must be given. 1t is es-
timated that there will be no votes
cast against the school proposition
and it is not improbable the petition
will be prepared, signed and presented
today.
An order was passed authorizing
the taking up of all registered Down
ingville warrants, and warrants of the
town Of Vinita issued instead. This
was felt to be equitable, in view of the
fact that the new town gets the GALA
boose, school house, road scraper and
other property.

Clean I'D the Town.

The Chieftain calls the attention of
the city authorities to the fact that a
number of dead animals are rottiag
within the city limits. Along the
Frisco track on the south side east of
the section house there are several
dead hogs that ought to be removed, as
the stencil infects that whole neigh
borhood. In other localities also there
are decaying animals thrown out dur
Ing the cold spell. 1t is good time
now at the approach of spring to clean
up.

Thew Are Married.

Rev. j. N. Moore, who used to come
to Vinita at frequent intervals to

no more on the same mission. They

publication of The Brother in Red,
but is now merchandising at Ardmore.

Fifteen Days too Young.

George A. Countryman and Clara
Humbart of Horse creek, applied to
Clerk Jonn Anderson this afternoon
for a marriage license. When they
came to make the affidavt the young
lady was found to be just 10 days too
young, and George started on fifteen
mile ride to get the written consent
of the "old folks" at a gait only
equaled by the famous Paul Revere in
his midnight ride.

Lost 500 Cattle.

George Flanders, cattleman from
Big creek, was in town yesterday and
stated that out Of $500 head OF cattle
he had lost 500 head. There is no
doubt but cattle losses will aggregate
a much heavier total than has been
reported. The losses have in a meas
ure wiped out the profits for year to
come.

OUR FIRST THANKSGIVING.
President WashingtOn's PrOclama-
ton One Hundred and Ten
Years Ago.

Now, therefore, / do recommend and
assign Thursday, the Goth day of No
vember next, to be devoted by the peo-
pie of these states to the service of that
great and glorious Being who is the
beneficent author of all good that was,
that is or that will be; that we may
then all unite in rendering unto Him
our sincere and humble thanks for His
kind care and protection of the people
of this country previous to their be-
coming a nation, for the signal and
manifold mercies and the favorable in
Propositions of His Providence in the
course and conclusion of the late war,
for the great degree of tranquility
union and plenty which we have since
enjoyed, for the peaceable and IA
tional manner in which we have been
enabled to establish constitutions of
government for our safety and happi-
ness, and particularly the national one
lately instituted, for the civil and re-
Hgious liberty with which we are blessed
and the means we have of acquirin G
and diffusing useful knowledge, and
in general for all the great and va
rious favors which He hath been pleased
to confer upon us.
And also that we may then unite in
most humbly offering our prayers and
applications to the great Lord and
Ruler of nations and beseech Him TO
pardon our national and other trans
gressions; to enable us all, whether in
public or private stations, to perform
our several relative duties properly and
punctually; to render our national gov
eminent a blessing to all the people
by constantly being a government OF
wise, just and constitutional laws, di-
rectly and faithfully executed and
obeyed; to protect and guide all SOW
ereigns and nations, especially such as
have shown kindness to US, and to bless
them with good government, peace and
concord; to.promote the knowledge and
practice of true religion and virtue and
the increase of science among them and
us, and generally to grant unto all man
kind such a degree of temporal prosper
ity as He alone knows to be best.
Given under my hand at the city OF
New York, the Sd day of October, in
the year of our Lord one thousand seven
hundred and eighty-nine.

transit is rapid, cheap and comfortable.
The cars are as comfortable as Pull
mans, are heated by electricity, and
are always on time. Thus a man can
make home for himself in one of the
growing suburban places and be close
enough to his office for all practical
purposes.
Look across the Potomac. See the
beautiful hills over there, with cot
tages growing like magic. The electric
line over the Long bridge carries peo-
pie to that section. But in another
year the congress will pass bill max
ing an appropriation for splendid
bridge across the Potomac, directly
from the end of New York avenue or
this side of the river. Then our peo-
pie can ride from the treasury to those
heights in Virginia inside of Is min
