Terrible Electrical Storm West Of
Rush Springs Last Night

G. W. Clark, who lives about
eight miles west of Rush Springs
was in town this morning. He re-
lated amarvelous story of the work
Of Lightning in his neighborhooc
last week.
II was last Thursday night that
the most terrible electrical storm ii
years occurred. Rain was falling
but there was little wind.
DR.. Porter lives about a mile
from Mr.. Clark in two-room box
house. On the evening Of the
storm, Mrs. Porter was in one room
while two little girls and a brother
Of DR.. Porter was inthe other. The
latter had gone into the yard. IN
the midst Of the storm came a blind
ing electrical discharge, which
came down the stove pipe into the
room where the little girls and Mr..
Porter were. The clothing was
almost entirely torn from the lat
ter, part of il beng carried into the
adjacent ROOM He was quite Sci
riously hurt. One Of the little girls
had her shoes torn off and one Of
her feet badly injured. Both Or,
Porter and his wife liad their feet
injured and were otherwise badly
shocked. No great damage was
done to the house.
This is not the first time that
has played pranks OH
this neighborhood Some Of The
inhabitants think that the Lords
is aroused against them.
If 50, let them take w2ruing, so TO
School and be good.

GhiGkasha Fast
Indian Ball Players Had the Nets
AT Their Mercy for a Time.

Hazlett's chickasha Indian ag-
gregation gave the Metropolitans a
genuine scare in Sunday.s s ball
game. Andrew desertions to
Chickasha gave the visitors a good
sticker aud frstclass shortstop,
land the substitution of Monroe
did not fill fhe gap, as the latter
is entirely unfamiliar to that posi-
ton and made three awful errors.
In the batting, however, he drove
out a couple Of two-baggers that
were sorely needed.
In the FIVE innings the visitors
accumulated three runs and as
many times BANKED the mighty
Nets. who were busily engaged
.accummlating errors.
Harry Andrews, twirler for the
Nets pnt up a. gllt-edged game,
stricking out six men, hitting out
a couple Of timely two-baggers,
scoring one run, making one put
out, twelve assists and not a single
error. Such playing makes him
the bright particular star of the
local aggregation at this time.
Thurman, the old Texas Lacquer
and Houser, the Haskell student,
we're in the points for the visitors,
and the tantalizingly head work Of
this battery, the lively and clean
support il received put the crippled
Nets in a close box for eight in
nings. A batting streak in the
ninth inning, however, gave them
a victory that was snatched from
ont the jawso Of defeat.
Oklahoma fans are not as patrio-
tic as they should be, and through
ont the exciting game we're, at
least the larger percentage Of them
roofing for the Indians. This may
be accounted for by the fact that
the Indians slowed no end Of gin
ger They were alive at all stages
of the game and working for a
victory and II there is anything
that takes an Oklahoma City aud
Iehce il IS enterprise and pluck.
The score was. Oklahoma City s.l

Commissioners ResIgn.

-
Muslsosee = T, April lI.-
Three United States commissioners,
Leeds, Tate and Trotter have sent
in their resignations @ Judge Ray
mond and The same have been ac-
cepted. From the statement ac-
compinyi1g, il would appear that
the act was voluntary on the part
Of the commissioners. The only
reason that they gave was that
theyHad other business to look
after which requires all Of their
time. There are. already number
Of applicants fol the places, but
Judge RAYMOND IS holding court
at Eufaula and Will hardly fill the
vacancies until next week. Leeds
is the commissioner who was in
dicted hy two different grand
juries q few months ago. He was
charged with conspiracy on one in
dictment and with usurpation Of
Office OH the other. However the
trial court acquitted him Oh both
charges. The others also had
trouble, but have never had any
charges instituted in the courts.
