True there is no blast Of trumpets

70 our people
Postmaster Redheld keeps in close
touch with the department in this
matter and Is now in receipt Of a
letter from the acting first assistant
postmaster general. which in part
says: Il have 20 inform you that a
post Office Inspector has been detailed
to again visit Ardmore and ascertain
whether the requirements OF the reg

that Ardmore is prepared for the in.

this matter but should show a will

encouraged the delegates in the work
that lay before them and referred 10
the splendid record made last year
by the Indian Territory division.
He referred to Mr Iedbetter as be-
ing efficient and courageous and pos
sessing splendid tact Of organization.
After his election Mr. Ledbetter
was called for, and responded. He
said in part:
Il feel honored by my election to
this responsible Office. and cordial
ly thank you. There lies a duty be-
fore this organization that no words
can describe. and that duty is to-
ward the Confederate veteran. In all
my life the most tender appeal I ever
heard, fell from the lips Of General
Cabell yesterday. when he appealed
to Confederate veterans and to Sons
begging them never 70 allow a Con.
leueFate veteran 10 be buried In the
potter's field. There was never a time
when the Confederate soldier
was so popular as he isl
now. and there was never
time when the civil war veteran
needed help more than at this time.

Lester Killed the nnn

Yesterday morning E. W. Lester.
the one-armed gunsmith, was walk.
ing out East Main street when he
came upon a movers camp where
was a very ferocious blood hound.
The dog seeing Mr.. Lester com.
ing attacked him and by main force
and strength was he able to knock
and keep him of with his left hand.
Mr.. Lester came back home and
started again on his errand, this
time taking the opposite side of the
street from the dog.
The dog again rushed at him and
as he approached, the old Confeder-
ate veteran shot him dead in the
street.

On the 14th of this month, IL re-
ports are true, Tom Wade and John
Kerrick had an alteration in the lit
tie town of Orrine. II seems that
they were playing a social game of
croquet. when they got into a dispute
about the game
One OF them struck the other with
a croquet mallet, and in turn had his
finger nearly chewed off.
Deputy Norton arrested the parties
this morning and brought them to
Ardmore. Commissioner Robnett put
them both under bond for their ap-
pearance later.

One attractive feature Of the pa.
rade Thursday morning was the
unique grocery display of w. c. Ken.
DAN q Co The float was. layishly
decorated with flowers and in the
center a pyramid OF fine groceries
rose TO a considerable height. With.
In the pyramid stood Gerald. the III.
tie son of F. L. Grifin, a member Of
the firm. At one end OF the float
stood Miss Lula Kendall dressed in
white and bearing a gun that saw ser.
vice during the civil strife. At the
other end Miss Elma Grifnn stood
similarly attired and bearing an ex.
act counterpart of the gun borne by
Miss Kendall The effect was beau.
tifu! and these popular grocers made
themselves more popular by their en-.
terprise.

THE STRIKE SITUATION.
Non-Union Men go to cleburne, Then
Refuse to Work.

Refuse 10 Work.
The Santa Fe road is almost daily
receiving consignments Of machinists
and boilermakers at Cleburne to fill
the places of the 400 strikers at that
place, but, it is said, are experiencing
considerable trouble in getting the
men TO work after arriving at Gle
burne
II is claimed by many of the new
men that the case was misrepresent-
ed to them up North, where they were
hired and given transportation and
most invariably required to oc-
cupied exclusively by men employed
for the purpose of filling places of
strikers. but were told that the strike
was settled and they were needed to
help in clearing up the vast amount Of
work that has accumulated as a re-
suit of the strike.
One man from Chicago stated that
he and many other occupying a close
ly guarded car, were told that they
were going to Needles, California. but
noticed that they were passing sta
tions south Of Newton, Kan, and de-
manded of the man in charge an ex-
PLANTATION, why they were being car
ried south.
The reply was that he had received
wired instructions to change destina-
tion to Cleburne None of the men
are allowed to get out of the car but
at Fort Worth one of them jumped
out Of a window.
Upon arrival at Cleburne most of
the men went to the strikers head
quarters and refused to go to work
for the railroad.
The non-union men are kept housed
up in shops, where they are fed, and
also have sleeping quarters, barber
shops, bath houses, etc.

Mr.. Davis says that the lake is the
only system after all. for in it we
know exactly what we are getting
