Although the clouds were threat
ening yesterday morning, the Ard
more Reds went to Durwood to NIL
the engagement they had to play
ball at that place yesterday even
ing. All went we'll until they had
gotten almost to Provence. when
it began raining. They took ref
uge under camp meetin' arbor, T"
where they remained until the
shower was over. Then they pro-
ceeded to Durwood where, in an
ticipation of their coming, ample
preparations had been made for
their entertainment.
After dinner the large crowd re-
paired to the ball ground, but
just as the game was called it be
gan raining and the game was de-
clared off, the score, as one OF th'
boys expressed, being a wettin
to nuthin' in favor of Durwood.'
l. 1t was an unavoidable dfsap
pointment both to the people o
Durwood and the Reds, as botl
were anxious for the game.
The boys are loud in their prais
of the hospitable treatment the
received at the hands of the Dur
wood team.

Cotton Still Climbs.

The report of damage to crops
in the cotton belt of Texas and the
other gulf states caused cotton to
take another squirt today and buy
ers and spectators alike are ask
ing where it will stop. 1t ad-
vanced 3.4 of a cent today over
Saturdays close and indications
are that it will still go higher.
Receipts here today were very
light, owing to the rain storm and
consequent bad roads, but all thai
came brought top prices. Foul
bales sold on the street for II
cents, cash.

WRECKS GALORE.
The Santa Fe fias Trouble All Along
the Line.

The storm on the southern end
of the line has been causing delays
and property loss to the Santa Fe
for the last thirty-six hours and
now their troubles have come on
up the line.
At Valley View about noon to-
day regular freight No. "a. in
charge of Conductor Brown, was
wrecked and eleven cars are in the
ditch near that place, while the
track is badly torn up for some
distance. 1t is not known whether
any one was injured or not The
wreck was caused by spreading
rails, the track having been greatly
weakened at that point by the re-
| cent rain.
In the yards here today train
No. 921, in charge of Conductor
Harris, happened to a similar,
though not so serious. an accident.
AS the train was being pulled over
the scale track the rails spread and
five cars left the track, but were
mot overturned. A few hours oi
hard work replaced the cars and
repaired the track, but traffic wal
suspended for some time while th'
wreck crew was at work.
The wreck near Valley Viey
will delay the north bound passen
ger indefinitely and there is NJ
chance of mail being received her,
from the south tonight.

Special TO the Ardmoreite.
Pauls Valley. 1. t., Sept. O.
Some time ago Marcus Young. a
negro here, was arrested charged
with the murder of Billy Cole, an
other negro. He claimed the kill
ing was accidental. but was bound
over and his bond set at $3.50,
which he gave. He was working
for Robert Garvin up till night
before last. Mr.. Garvin heard a
horse leaving his place and went
out to Investigate and found that a
very fine horse OF his was missing,
also the negro. He came to town
and started several men out to look
for the negro. One of them met
him on the horse after several
hours, going back in the direction
of Mr.. Garvin's, and asked him
where he was going. He replied,
Il am going home," and claimed
that he had gone to see his sweet
heart and had merely borrowed the
horse to ride. He was arrested
and bound over to await the action
of the grand jury and his bond sci
at $500.
He was on the direct road bach
home at the time and no one sup
poses that he stole the horse, bu
he is at present Ianguishing in th'
Pauls Valley bastile. His bonds
men gave him up on the old charg
and he is now in a fair way to rid
a train to Ardmore.

IN RIDICULOUS GARB,
Rock Island Club Members Have
Happy and Amusing Gath
ering.
SPECIAL COSTUMES FOR OCCASION

None Admitted Unless Appropriately
Dressed. Prizes Being Awarded for the
Best Makeups-An Entertainment by the
Quinn Family. Followed by Social Ses-
sion-MusIcaI and OratoricaI Features.
One of the most enjoyable member
ship gatherings since the organiza-
ton of the Rock Island Club ccurred
last night on the occasion of the rid
iculous custome party and social ses-
sion, an affair that was participated
in by about fifty of the members Of
the club, all of whom were required
to present themselves in appropriate
garb before they were admitted. The
result was an amusing spectacle. Tn e
picture was a varied one, presenting
almost everything in manner of dress
from the ridiculous to the sublime.
A number had had special costumes
made, and in addition had so artis-
tically decorated their countenances
that it was with difficulty their friends
succeeded in identifying them.
The costume judges, E. H. Guyer,
Phil Mitchell and F. w. Bahnsen,
awarded the prizes as follows: First.
Samuel Edwards; second, DR.. r. NJ.
Pearce; third. e. F. Roth.
Incidental to the party proper there
was an entertainment by the Quinn
family, three tots who are probably
without superiors Of their ages as
acrobatic comedians. Their perform
ance was of the highest order.
Social Session Organized.
The meeting was then organized
into a social session with F. A. Head
as chairman and B. d. Connolly as
secretary. The chairman named as
special policemen DR.. G. l.. Eyster,
A. H. Head and G A. Writ, who were

lowed, according to his talents, fea-
