The drill corps of Columbia Command
cry. No. ?. X. T., gave it's annual ex-
cursion last night to River View, when
over 1000 friends of the commandery
made merry.
Promptly at Gas o'clock the com
mandery arrived at the wharf. escorted
by The Times Newsboys' Band. which
had brought them from the Masonic
Temple. to the stirring strains OF many
popular tunes. The little fellows looked
very sturdy and business-like in their
gray uniforms and handled their in
struments with the air OF veterans
Band Not on Boat.
Much to the disappointment OF the ex-
eursionists the members of the band
were unable 10 go to River View owing
to their early departure this morning
for Harrisburg. where they are to act as
the escort of the William R. Andrews
Club at the Republican State convention
of Pennsylvania.
When the last whistle had blown and
everybody was aboard. the band played
a lively air, and the Pentz pulled out
into mid-stream, and from that time I'M
til the wharf at Washington was reach
ed at late hour. everything was as
cheerful. bright, and happy as the occa-
sion demanded.
The sail down the river was thor
oughly enjoyable. and upon the arrival
Of the beat at River View there was
grand display of fireworks. which served
as a hearty welcome for the guests
Souvenirs were distributed among the
ladies. and everything done to make the
evening memorable.
"Chute" Most Popular.
The chute was among the most popu-

peals of laughter were sent over the
water during the entire evening. while
the good old roller coaster rumbled and
iumbled and jostled everybody as OF
yore. Merry go-round shooting gallery.
and the dancing pavilion came in for
their share Of attention. and altogether
everything about the popular amuse-

Not the least delightful feature of the
evening was the hospitality of the mem

their affairs exert every effort to dis
charge the duties of hosts in genuine.

last night was as assured as it has ever
been in the past

not even 4 long fly vas forthcoming for
Ryan, and Wolverton popped up to the

Bradstreet says: Wet harvests this
year have had a more than ordinarily
iar-re2ching effect upon prices Of ce-
reals, particularly wheat and corn.
For one thing, they have made the
movement of these crops later than
usual, and in addition they have af.
fected the grades so that those who
have gone short of the market have
had a particularly hard time in max.
ing deliveries because of the failure
of the stuff to grade up to standard.
This condition has apparently been
accentuated this week by active buy
ing. centering at Chicago, which has
led to marked advances and talk of
cornerng. That the shorts have over
sold is freely asserted. Certainly the
course Of prices so far in the present
season has been a disappointment 10

result Of the large crops reported reap.

needs of consuming countries. Com.

Judge Baker, who has dismissed the

he was unable to resist her oft-repeat-

He also charged that she administered
drugs to him.
On June 3 he said his wife induced
him to leave his home for a few hours.

THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION.
Mayor Dick Issues Proclamation to
All the People OF Ardmore.

Mayor Dick Issues Proclamation to
All the People Of Ardmore.
History proves that failure and dis
aster have always overtaken those
countries which forget their depend
ence upon God and withhold from Him
their homage. The people of the Unit
ed States. mindful of this fact, have
from the very beginning Of their ma
tional life and history honored and
reverenced God as the divine, just
and supreme ruler of the world. with
hearts and minds burning with patriot
ism and philanthropy, and dedicated
TO His service, the pilgrim fathers
planted at Plymouth in 1920 the germ
Of civil and religious liberty from
which, under Gods favor, has grown
this, the American republic-the best
and most powerful government known
to the world. The custom, therefore,
OF setting apart day when the entire
citizenship of the commonwealth Is
asked TO offer united praise and
thankfulness to the Creator of all for
His goodness and mercy, is a rule
highly becoming that Christian civili.
zation now and always enjoyed by the
people of this city and nation.
The year which is drawing to a
close has brought untold blessings to
the people of Ardmore, for which they
should feel profoundly and humbly
thankful, and in recognition Of all
those favors bestowed in love and
mercy by the great Heavenly Father,
l do hereby recommend Thursday
November 27, 1902, as a day Of thanks
giving and prayer, and that the peo-
pie of the city, without reference to
creed, shall desist from all labor and
business and assemble at their respec-
tive places of worship, or in the home
circle, and render thanks to God for
His manifold blessings vouchsafed to
them individually as well as to the
! city ana nation.
In thus rendering thankfulness to
the Great Ruler, let those whom He
has literally favored with health and
prosperity make generous gifts to the
poor and needy.
In testimony whereof, l have here
unto set my hand and caused the seal
of the city of Ardmore to be affixed.
Done at the mayors office in the city
of Ardmore, Indian Territory, this the
oath day Of November in the year Of
our Lord, 1902.
