from the Ardmoreite
The docket has been exceedingly

ing and maintaing gaming house.

Il is evident that the law per
tanning to gaming is TO be enforced
to the letter and the ganisters had
just as well know il now
III one instance William New
man was tried for maintaining a
common gaming house
and was found guilty BY a jury.
Just before the dinner hour New
man said your honor how much
is my due, / don't want 10 go to
Jail, want 10 80 TO dinner. Judge
Dlckerson told him TO 90 10 dinner
and to appear at one O'Clock when
he would sentence him. Newman
went to dinner aud returned, when
court opened, the judge asked him
if he knew any reason why he
Should not behned. Newman said
No, how much is it2l Judge
Dickerson replied SIoo fine aud six
months il Jail.
Charles Ball pleaded guilty to
running gaming house at Francis
aud was sentenced to a fine of Sioo
and two months in JUL.
Pete Martin and Lee Shields

were found guilty and given a fine
of 500 and two months in jail.
Bud Kiser and Ollie Lancaster
were found guilty Of running a
gaming house at Ada, they have
not been sentenced yet.
An amusing event happened
when an ovefgrown country boy
was brought up on charge Of car
rying loaded pistol. The Judge
asked what he meant by carrying
a loaded pistol around with him?
The boy answered, Well Judge,
il wouldn't be no use if it wasn't |
loaded. I" The judge gave him the
lowest fine for the oifense.

The experience of the Hedric
family, an account of which ap-

in regard to insurance. These two
old people had all their money in
vested in a little stock of goods
at Brewster. They carried insur-
ance TO the amount of $500. The
agent came along and wrote their
policy and they accepted it without
inquiring into the standing Of the
company in which ii was written.
Fire destroyed their property and
when their claim was sent in, the
company was found to be insolvent
They were left penniless and are
compelled TO depend OH charity.
They probably paid no more at
tention TO the company carrying
their insurance than the average
man does. How many people know
what companies are carrying their
insurance? In the majority OF cases
it is left entirely TO the agent. 1t is
assumed that the agent will write
the policy in a reliable company

GREAT BEAUTY IN A WEED.
Although Declared a Positive MUS
Rnce, They Make Harvest Fields
Pleasing to the Eye.

Perhaps everybody has at times
declared weeds a nuisance and
wondered why they we're created.
Without discussing this question,
and without considering whether
or not all weeds do not serve some
useful purpose, did we but under
stand it, it yet remains that much
Of the beauty of the autumn land
scape is due to weeds. They de
velop just in time to make glorious
the harvest fields, and it would
appear that their blossoms are an
expression of Joy over the bOun.
ties nature has given to man.
Wheat harvest would hardly seem
such a time of rejoicing we're it
not for the bloom of the wild morn
ing glory and the "nigger head"
How lavish nature is with these
beautiful blossoms at this time.
She seemingly tries to fence every
field with them, as if to call atten,
ton to the golden harvest she has
provided by scattering round
about it her coined money, the
yellow flowers. And then, when
the corn and other crops have
ripened, what a prOfusiOn of her
royal color - yellow - she dis.
tributes over the fields in honor
of the event! Acres Of Spanish
needles and golden rod, with white
and yellow moths fitting hither
and thither, please the eye with
their rich cOlOring. And before
she ends her harvest festival she
will drape the trees with her royal
yellow. Green is not earth's
color. Earth is yellow, the sky
is blue, and the blending of these
two cOlOrs produces the green of
grass and trees a marriage of the
earthly and the spiritual. Some.
times earth breaks away from the
dominion of the sky and robes her
self in native yellow, and then we
see that she is wondrously beau
tiful in herself, even though her
garments be woven of ragged
weeds.
