A Toad In q Hole.

II you poke about the corners Of 4
garden you will soon understand, says
the Garden, how the stories of toads
imprisoned in a solid rock arise. You
hardly ever find toad in it's chosen
retreat without wondering how it man
aged, to get in and how it proposes to
get out again, and our ancestors en-
shrined this batrachian habit in the
phrase toad in hole'' as the name Of
dish in which a piece of meat Is
baked inside a batter, with no visible
means of entrance or exit. This peeul
lar faculty Of the toad for burying him
self without leaving q trace behind Is
due to his trick OF burrowing back
ward, as a crab does, his strong hind
legs shoveling the earth forward until
he Is covered. 60 s..

opinion of the public that the practice
should be stopped before more lives
are imperiled. Railroad employees
and patrons alike are fearful of
further mishaps and loudly protest
against the practice. The accident
which caused the life of Jesse Turner,
whose remains still lie at the morgue,
is fresh in the minds of our people
and was also due to one of those
fish" cars leaving the track.

Charles Conkling, business man

badly torn. He was in the day coach

accident. The fire however was quick

Among the many conflicting reports
heard at this point was one to the ef-
feet that several Willmar people were
on board the train and that some were
among the injured. Inquiries into the
matter revealed the fact that only
three people had boarded the train
from here that morning, two being
travelling men who had stopped at the
Merchants and one was woman
whose destination was Atwater, but
who had been carried by on No. the

Encourage immigration.

The X Rock Island System is
making an effort TO encourage
immigration into Oklahoma, as
we'll as TO interest capitalists and
business and professional men in
the territory.
In this undertaking it should
have the active cooperation OF
every resident, for this reason:
the more people there are in Ok
lahoma, the higher the price OF
land will be and the greater will
be the prosperity of every man
and woman in it.
The plan which will be followed
is to publish, in Eastern farm
journals, letters from farmers
and business men who have made
money by coming to Oklahoma
Letters should go into details to
the extent of stating how much
money the writer had when he
arrived, what he did, what suc-
cess he has met with and what he
thinks of that portion of Okla
homa in which he Is located. In
order to prepare such letter. II
is not necessary that the writer
should possess special qualilica'
tons as literary man. On the
contrary, a plain straightforward
statement of facts is of much
greater value than ilorid des-
criptions of climatic and Other
advantages.
Photographs, not of persons
but of cattle, feed lots, growing
crops, harvesting operations, etc.
can be used to advantage.
Letters are desired not only
from farmers and farmers wives
but also from merchants, school
teachers, clergymen-from every
one, in brief who has a story tC
tell and knows how TO tell it.

That an Effort Will Be Made to Weed
Out Colored Men FROM the Navy.

this morning elected pope and assumed the
title of Plus x.
The new pope appeared In st. Peters,
where, amid tremendous excitement, he
pronounced his first papal benediction.
Many thousands witnessed the historic
scene and signifed their approval of the
choice of the cardinals by tumultuous
cheering.
The usual large crowd assembled before
St Peters at about 1870 am. to await
the rising of the smoke from the Sistine
Chapel. Hundreds of carriages stood in
the blistering sun. which seemed hotter
than ever The colonnades were blocked
with people. but even there the anxious
watchers could scarcely escape from the
severe heat. When the clock struck Ill
the crowd left its shelter and stood bravely
in the in the belief that the smoke
would appear within few minutes, as it
had consistently given it's signal at about
this hour since the conclave began.
Minutes sped on, and still no smoke was
seen. When the bells sounded half past

carriages and joined the watchers on the
steps of the basilica. Inside st. Peters
many also were waiting and the suspense

reached. The troops spread themselves
across the square and nervous anticipation
