Guthrie, Q. II, Sept i21.-The Capital
says: Senator H. Z. Ravens Of Enid, who

once a year, when he gives himself up to
sightseeing and having a good time, has
just returned from his annual vacation.
He thinks New York is greater than all
other American cities combined. 81 have

COAL FAMINE COMING
Hard Times in Fuel Due to
General Prosperity.
NONE HAULEDA ALL SUMMER
Because the Railroads Had
Better-Paying Freight.
NONE HAULED ALL SUMMER

Chicago. Sept. 1.-THE Record tomorrow
viii say: According to present indications
the central west this winter viii expert
ence a coal famine the like OF which
never before has been known in this sec
ton of the country. Prosperity. 1t is said,
will be the primary cause OF the famine.
Ordinarily at this season Of the year the
railroad companies, especially those whose
lines connect the east and the central
west, derive their greatest profit from the
transportation of coal from the eastern
fields of this section, but under present
conditions they are unable to provide cars
for the hauling of the fuel, owing to the
unprecedented handling OF other and
more profitable commodities.
Under ordinary conditions the lake cssr-
riers are engaged in carrying coal from
the east to the west and stocking the
great bunkers for the winter supply, but
in the summer, which ends today, they
have had more than they could do to haul
other things which contributed more gem
erously to the exchequers of the various
companies. Coal mine owners In the east
have spent a noticeable portion OF the
last six months in trying to secure accom-
modations for their shipments, but these
companies, even in view of the fact that
they operated with greatly increase
equipment, have been unable to oblige
coal men. Tariffs on the fuel have been
advanced. and there are strong reasons
to believe that before long they will be
sent up still higher.

Medford, o. T., Sept. 21.-The Star says:
On Saturday afternoon last Mrs. Thomas
Adams had quite an exciting adventure
with her gasoline stove, and her great
presence of mind probably saved her fine
new residence from total destruction An
oven sat on the stove. a small three
burner, in which some baking was being
done. Her attention was attracted by a
Sizing noise emanating from the stove,
and when she turned to investigate she
found the pipe and tank blazing furious
ly. She Immediately took her baby and a
few priced trinkets out of doors and re-
turned to the kitchen just in time to see
the oven blown from its position. She
then called the neighbors, but before any
one arrived had put out the flame by
throwing common flour on 1t. Mrs Adj

County Republican says: 1.-The citizens of
Arapahoe took it upon themselves to get
together a number of exhibits of the pro-
ducts of the soil of this wonderfully fer
tile country and send them to the street
fair at Oklahoma City this week. It is
the cry with some envious and self-inter-
ested parties Of the east end of the terri
tory that western Oklahoma is fit or
nothing but cattle and kaff1r corn, and
the enterprising people Of the county seat
wanted to show them There were forty
five lots Of Indian corn, exhibits of kaffir
corn, broom corn, millet, alfalfa and ma
tive grasses. One of the corn exhibits,
consisting Of thirty ears, weighed thirty
eight pounds; one Of eight ears weighed
twelve pounds, and all were first class.

ducts were under the care of E. NJ Holt"
