Horses-About 175 head of horses arrived for
the initial sale this week, against an equal
number last week and 200 the same time a year
ago. Practically all the different grades were
represented, but as usual at this season OF tne
year the consignments consisted principally OF
heavy harness horses. The attendance or BUY
not large, and there were not many ur-
gent orders, consequently the supply was ample
to meet the requirements and buyers were IN
cined to accept lower prices than last week
Therefore the trading was not as active as has
characterized preceding sales, and the hnal re-
suit probably not quite as satisfactory as
last week, although some of the best horses sold
nearly steady. IL required extra good heavy
horses to bring s175d200 and the medium to good
chunks sold largely at Sl25Ql5O. The principal
event here this week was the sale OF trainload
of Western range horses. which occurred this
forenoon. The sale had been well advertised ana
attended by large crowd OF curious spec
tators, and, of course, among them were quite
a number of buyers. Special attention was given
TO size, condition and breeding in selecting the
horses for this sale, and it was rather expected
L at better prices would be realized than In
former sales, but in this statesmen were disap-
pointed. 1t took some time TO arouse enthusiasm
among the buyers, and. in fact, there was no
really strong competition at any time. The Of
ferngs were sold in carload lots, and in most
cases brought several dollars per head less than
expected. Sales ranged from $50 TO 500 per head.

His Last Hope Realized.

In the first opening of Oklahoma
to settlers in 1889, the editor of this
paper was among the many seekers
after fortune who made the big race
one fine day in April. During his
travelling about and afterwards his
camping upon his claim, he encoun-
tered much. bad water, which together
with the severe heat. gave him very
severe diarrhoea which it seemed al.
most impossible to check. and along
in June the case became so bad he ex-
pected to die. One day one of his
neighbors brought him one small
bottle of Chamberlain IS Collie. Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy as last hope
A big dose was given him while he
was rolling about on the ground in
great agony, and in few minutes the
dose was@ repeated. The good effect
of the medicine was soon noticed and
within an hour the patient was taking
his first sound sleep for fortnight.
That one little bottle worked com
plete cul 9, and he cannot help but feel
grateful. The season for bowel disor-
ders being at hand suggests this item.

A PSALM OF ADVERTISING.

Tell me not in sneering manner
Advertising does not pay.
Rich are they who fling their banner
Boldest to the world today.
Advertising done in earnest,
Done with wisdom, heart and soul.
With determination sternest
Always wins the wished for goal.
Lives of many men remind MS
We to great success can climb.
If the reading public find us
Advertising all the time.
Advertising with persistent
Energy to spread our fame,
Ever honest and consistent
In performing what we claim.
In the worlds commercial battle,
In the ri valry of trade,
We must hustle, shout and rattle
Ere impression can be made.
Not enioyment-rather sorrow

Who are apt to let tomorrow,
Like today, unheeded close.
Careless of their advertising.

Is the method enterprising
That insures full recompense.

NAVAL OBSERVATORY
MAKES OBSERVATIONS.

Washington. Oct. 13-The United States
Naval Observatory to-day made observa-
tions OF the extraordinary group Of solar
spots now visible on the SUM-. the largest
group discovered in the last decade. The
observations are under the direction OF
George RI. Peters. who made the follow
ing statement to-day:
The enormous group was again OBJ
served with a DhOtO-heliOgraph yesterday
and to-day. The individual spots COM
prising the group have become less nu-
merous. some OF the smaller spots having
consolidated with others. The group con-
sists Of about nine spots IN all, and now
shows indications Of cOndensing into two
principal spots or groups somewhat sepa-
rated.
Yesterday the total length OF the dis
turbed region was 1900 miles. with a
width OF about 5000 miles. the aggregate
length OF the principal spots being. l&300o
miles. The groGp was easily seen by the
naked eve at the Naval Observatory by
several OF the astronomers. and ought to
be a conspicuous object for several days
vet. A brilliant aurora was observed last
evening. a bright glow in the heavens
near the northern horizon. while the in
tense streams shot Up toward the zenith.
These continuous aurorae often accom-
pany the appearance OF large sun spots.

\ the sun rotates on its axis about
every twenty-siN days. these spots will
disappear in the course Of a few days and
return when the other half OF the sphere
IS again presented. about a fortnight

That these sun spots exercise a ma

Severe winters generally follow. Other
meteorological phenomena. such as rain
