POULTRY POINTERS.

Game chickens have more meat in
proportion TO their height than any
other breed Of fowls.
When the chickens are growing fast,
1t is n good plan TO mix a little bone
meal I'm their soft feed.
Smearing whole wheat with kerosene
or turpentine and feeding it 20 the
chickens is a good remedy for gapes.
Adding some carbolic acid and put.
ting on hot will secure much better re-
suits from the whitewashing of the
poultry house.
While it is at no time advisable 20
keep food Of any kind before the fowls
all the time, It will be an advantage TO
keep milk where they can drink all
they want
Fowls do not run together In large
numbers. They will always divide into
fiocks of small size and will select dit-
ferent feeding grounds, always pro-
yided they have the opportunity.
A growing chicken, like a growing
animal. requires plenty Of good, whole.

of accidents on other divisions of the

obtained.

This Afternoon.


This Afternoon Mayor Dick, Alder
men w c. Kendall and S. McChar-

about Hog creek, two miles northwest
Of town. where there is a great many
everlasting springs, from which 10000
head OF cattle could come and slake
their thirst daily and still have water
left, with a view Of securing the same
for the purpose of securing water for
the city's waterwCrks system.
II seems that the city council has
waited or Mr. Baker as long as they
can consistently, and now they think
il is time to be up and doing.
SO the mayor and aldermen are
looking about to see where the city
can get water.
Hog creek can be damned up and
enough water collected there to fur
nish a city several times the size Of
Ardmore.
Mayor Dick says that lake watel
is the only solution In Dallas, h,
says, they tried everything elese, ever

STREET CROSSINGS DISCUSSED.
Citizens Meet Railroad Men and Talk
About Closina Streets.

ABOUT closing Streets.
Yesterday it became pretty gener.
ally known that Vice President w. c.
Perry, F. w. Valiant and Assistant
Engineer b. ]. Dalton were in the
city for the purpose of conferring
with our people in regard to the clos
ing of streets crossing the A. & c..
right of way. They were accompa-
MED by the division engineer. George
w Gist, and together with small
representation Of the citizens OF the
First ward. they met in Furman &
Mather's Office.
Some time ago Mr. Gist made out
a list Of the streets he would like to
close and those he would like to open
and he presented these to the coun-
ell, and the fight has been on ever
since
Chief Engineer F. w. Valiant went
over the ground yesterday and con
cluded that the road could also open
A street northwest. which has been
closed ever since the grading was
finished in the city.
This makes about twelve crossings
the A. q c. people propose to give
Ardmore, as follows:
Commencing on the east side, where
they enter the town, they propose to
have crossings over their road for p
l. and l streets, while street runs
under the big trestle Crossing the
Santa Fe, they will open Seventh ave
nue. northeast, A street northeast,
North Washington, street north
west; close street (crossing the
Frensley block, open c street, close
d and f. and open F; close all down
to l., which has a good crossing. and
then they will also open the west
boundary
This leaves about fifteen streets
closed, a good many of them never
having been used while some were
used only occasionally
Joe Barall and A. Bulard were
there. They live on A street, and
felt happy as soon as Mr. Valiant an.
nounced that he would concede A
, street.
Thomas Norman and Fred Bulard
, live on B street northwest, north OF
f the A. & c.. and wanted b street op
= ened. Mr. Norman suggested TO Mr.
: Perry that If they would open up /
street the citizens along the stree
would help build a bridge across it.
Mr.. Valiant suggested 10 Mr.. Nor
man that the road would build an(
maintain the bridges over their entir,
; right of way provided the city woul,
!. build and maintain the approaches
I thereto Mr.. Norman wanted to know
what kind Of bridge the road woul,
|: give us, to which Mr.. Valiant an
!. swered that it would be built o
!; wood
Mr. Perry stated that the proposi
tion, as offered by them. was what h,
T considered a fair one: that the
= wanted to deal fairly with the peopl
J., OF Ardmore; that every time the,
q had to close a street they would hav
to move their depot just that muc
further west, and that they would lik
to stay in town with their depot. The
we're willing to be reasonable, an
3 to give and take, and hoped we woul
e do likewise.

EVIDENCE SECURED
Against Sellers of So Called
"Meads, (which Will be Pre-
sented to the Grand Ju-
ries This Month.

A general crusade against the
joint keepers throughout the Ter
ritory is expected to follow the
convening Of the grand juries this
month.
1t is reported that a mass OF evil
bence has been accumulated by
detectives employed by the anti
saloon league against the vendors
of the so-called 4meads" and other
intoxicants which will be submit
ted as soon as the grand juries
meet.
Sensational developments are
expected at Muskogee, where the
list of both the petit and grand
Jurors who will serve at the pres
ent term of court have been kept
secret.
Superintendent Wooten of the
anti.saloon league spent several
days in Vinita few weeks ago,
and is thoroughly conversant with
the situation here.
Specimens OF all the concociions
sold have been thoroughly analized
it is said, with results that will
make it interesting for those en-
gagged in their sale.
The work of securing evidence
has been conducted quietly, but
most thoroughly, and not only the
joint keepers but the druggists
throughout the Territory who have
been engaged in illegal traffic in
intoxicants will be vigorously
prosecuted.

Both men were armed, but the
nephew was the quicker on the
trigger. The shooting caused
great deal of excitement, as both
