extent overdrawn, and that the

FORTUNATE DISCOVERY.
w. [. Trott's Fine House
Saved From Destruction.

Fire was discovered this morn.
ing about half past 2 O'Clock in the
west side OF W. l.. Trott's resi-
dence, in the north part of town.
Mr.. Trott and his family were
awakened by the shouts of his
neighbors and the firing of guns,
giving the alarm. A number of
men were quickly upon the scene
and the heroic work of fifteen or
twenty minutes succeeded in SUBJ
DUNG the flames. The damage to
building and furniture will prob
ably amount to $500. The origin
of the fire is unknown, though it
is thought matches in closet
ignited by mice must have been
the cause. There had been no fire
in the building, as the family take
their meals at the hotel and have
no occasion to have fire.

BASE BALL PARK.
Work Should BY All Means Be
Continued.

The base ball syndicate has sus
pended operations on the north park
tho not permanently it is hoped.
The park is SO much more accessible
than the fair grounds that largely
increased attendance would be the
result, were 1t fenced and properly
improved.
Since the foregoing was put in type
the stockholders in the base ball and
park association have doubled their
subscriptions in order that the con-
tract might be let at once for the
fence, and work will now begin The
original amount subscribed was S.
each, and it was agreed this morning
to make it $40.

Every faro dealer of note in the
country has at some time had Little
Dick in hook for $500 or more. In
the days when confidence men were
making big money working the rail
way trains Canada Bill had as side
partner dapper little fellow named
Dick Cody. Itwas the fashion those
times for the dudes to carry small
canes with richly mounted and dec
GRATED heads. These were too small
for use as walking sticks and were
intended for show solely. Dick Cody
was dude of dudes, would change
his clothes two and three times a
day, and always looked as if he had
just stepped out of a bandbox. After
getting his share of a trick, !" as
the robbery of the innocents was
termed, Cody would strike for the
nearest large city to have a good
time, and this to his mind meant
rich meals, few bottles of wine
and a bout at faro. He was a care
full, methodical little fellow, and on
reaching town would plant most of
his money in safe place, retaining
only 5000 or 5000 for his spree.
After his meal and wine he would
march to some favorite faro bank
and tackle the tiger. If he won, he
would keep on playing until the
game closed or the dealer turned up
the box. If he lost, as he generally
did, Dick would begin to look close
ly at the gold mounted stick he al
ways carried, and the dealer knew
what was coming. Handing over
the cane Cody would say in cool,
natural manner, the same as if he
was cashing certified check:
Put Little Dick in for $500,
please"
And no dealer who was on to his
job ever refused him. Win or lose.
Cody was always around promptly |
to take his cane out of pawn. The |
stick itself was not worth at the |
outside more than $40, but Cody
could go into any faro bank of note |
in the country and get q loan Of |
$500 or any reasonable sum on it. |
Is was his way Of givinga promis- /
sorry note for the credit. and he /

CLAREMORE WINS 500.
An Exiting Game Of Ball with
Wagner.


The ball game played at Wag-
onerl Tuesday, between Claremore
and Wagner resulted in very
decisive victory for Claremore.
The score stood 81 to s. In the
fourth inning each, scored FIVE runs.
In the first bali of the fifth inning
the Claremores scored seven runs
before they were turned down. 1t
is said a great deal of unnecessary
wrangling was INDUCED in by both
sides, consuming much time and
sorely trying the patience of the
spectators. A 500 purse was
played for. The score by innings
was as follows:

REBELLION Is COMING.
Natives of Porto Rico Said to BE
Ready for Revolution.

Natives of Porto Rico Said to BE
Ready for Revolution.
NEW YORK, March 1.-THE Porto
Ricans want independence" said Col.
William P. Hubbell, commander Of
the One Hundred and Forty-seventh
regiment today upon his return from
Porto Rico.
Col. Hubbell, in an interview, de-
clared his belief, based upon his expe-
rience as a soldier of this government,
an insurrection of the natives of Porto
Rico is bound to come sooner or later.
He says every evidence Of the forth
coming uprising was given in Porto
Rico, especially in the latter part of the
stay of the One Hundred and Forty
seventh regiment there. He said:
1.-THE demonstrations made at our
departure convinced US the majority
Of the natives were glad to get rid of
US. Our first difficulties on the island
were caused by our suppression Of a
secret society known as the Black
Hand. 1t was organized on the same
lines with the Ku-Klux in this contry.
A plot was formed, of which we OBJ
tained ample proof, to enter our bar
racks by stealth and put the entire por-
ton Of the regiment which was at
Caguas to the machete. Fortunately
we were placed on our guard and the
conspiracy was frustrated"

FIFTEEN DAYS DELAYED.
Passenger Train in Colorado Holds
the Record Up to Date.

CHEYENNE. Wyo., March I.-Sto-
ries Of ships lost at sea and steamships
overdue are surpassed by the record Of
a train that was due here fifteen days
ago and has not yet arrived. There
are forty-two passengers aboard. and
there is said to be considerable suffer-
ing for want Of food.
The train has been side-tracked at
Iron Mountain two weeks, and there
Is not house within ten miles of the
belated passengers. During a recent
abatement Of the storm a relief COM
mittee was organized to reach the sta
ton. Snowshoes were made and ten
return badly frost-bitten two days
later, they having lost their way in the
snowstorm that sprang up two hours
after they left the train.
Emergency measures have been
adopted and hunting parties organized
among the passengers to bring sup
plies Of provisions. No bread or -four
can be obtained and for ten days the
people have been forced to subsist on
beef shot down on the range. The
train is on the Cheyenne and North
ern, which goes through country that
abounds in cattle, and there is no diff
ficulty in capturing sufficient to feed
| the snow-bound passengers, as the ami
mails are almost ready to drop in their
! tracks, not having been able to get any
| food through the deep snow.

SWEEP OF THE STORM.

Blizzard Struck Various Sections of
the Country.
OMAHA, Neb., March ia blizzard
struck Nebraska today, and at mid

stacks were razed.
OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla, March II.
"A terrific wind storm visited this
place today, coming from the south
west. For half an hour it blew q. per-
feet gale, while rain fell in sheets.
Nearly one hundred houses were blown
down. The oil mills and nearly every
smokestack in town is down. A num-
Der of plate glass fronts were smash
ed. Damage is estimated at $4,000.
NO lives were lost, but there were sew
eral almost miraculous escapes.
