Brisk at Anadarko.

Anadarko, Ok, Aug. 15.-The bid
ing on lots continues brisk and prices
are good. The churches attempted to
buy sites around the court house block,
but the prices went beyond their reach.
Outside of few minor offenses every
thing continues peaceful and quiet
here. There has been no liquor sold
here thus far. The crowd continues
large and the interest shown indicate
that the desirable residence lots will
bring good prices.

Reinforcement There.

San Francisco, CAL, Aug. 19.-The
efforts of the conservative persons to
bring about settlement of the strike
appear to be ineffective. 1t has been
announced by the employers that nc
concessions will be made to men who
left their employment, and the strikers
seem to have come to the conclusion
that they cannot conscientiously con-
cede anything more. There are Il, zoo
unemployed in the city. There is al
most a complete paralysis of the coast
ing trade.

times when the boys give the long blast
for the Junction they just pull short

Division.
If you are ever down that way, drop
in on the girl at the clearinghouse.
She's not very stylish, and l guess per-
haps her talk is a bit western, but
somehow or other they seem to think
pretty well of her in Lamy. And, by
the way, they don't call her "Mollie"
any more. It's just Dan Boards girl

New York claims to be the sunniest
of the large cities. The United States

many days have been sunny in each
part of the country. Although Arizona

A deposit of photographic stone has
been found near Mount Sterling, Ky,
which Eugene Leary of the United
States geological survey, who had been
sent to examine it, says he would
rather own than any gold mine he

why the quarry should not control the
market in this country. There is no
photographic stone anywhere else, so
far as known, and there will be 10

probably reach $3.50, 900, which is far in
excess of all estimates before the sale.
