INSURANCE REDUCTION.
New Rate to Apply to All Indian Ter.
rtory Towns.

Notice has been received by all in
surance agencies in the Indian Terri
tory Of a new insurance rate on resi-
dence property which was agreed on
by the companies on September p.
This new rate amounts TO an average
reduction of 80 cents on the hundred
and comes as a very welcome change
from the old rate which was thought
to be very high
The significance of the new sched.
ule may be understood from the fol
lowing comparisons:
In cities classed as four and a half,
of which Ardmore is one, single roof
frame dwelling has heretofore been
rated at 81 with an additional
Charge of 10 cents of unraint-
ed. 25 cents for metal fues and 10
cents for block or pier foundation,
making a total of s145 for the highest
rate: the new base rate, of property
if within $50 feet OF a fire water hy-
drant, is so cents, with no additional
charge for structure except 10 cents
for metal fues. II over $50 feet from
a hydrant, the same rules apply, eX
cept that the base rate is 81, which is
the rate given for cities OF 'ne fifth
md sixth classes
The new exposure table is 20 cents
for 10 fct and less than 90 feet II
feet, 10 cents for expcs &C and not OK
ceeding 80 feet.

Good Spirits.

Good spirits don't all come from
Kentucky. Their main source Is the
liver-and all the fine spirits ever
made in the Blue Grass state could
not remedy bad liver or the hundred
and one i'll effects 1t produces. You
can't have good spirits and a bad
liver at the same time. Your liver
must be in fine condition II you would
feel buoyant, happy and hopeful,
bright of eye, light of step, vigorous
and successful in your pursuits. You
can put your liver in fine condition by
using Green's August Flower-the
greatest of all medicines for the liver
and stomach and certain cure for
dyspepsia or indigestion. It has been
a favorite household remedy for over
thirty-five years. August Flower will
make your liver healthy and active
and thus insure you liberal supply

that used in various parts of this
country, in favor of method which
is considered more advanced and
humane than that employed by any
other nation. Under the new method
death is dealt out by means of q

extinguished in record time, and
with a minimum of suffering, by the
almost instantaneous exhaustion of

w. L. Starr dismissed from the SER
vice one of the soldiers who had
said that he would not fire on any
crowd who wanted to lynch such a
fiend as either of those at States
boro. He said if he were member
of a company on guard under such
circumstances he would deliver his
gun to any citizen who wanted it.
Capt. Starr said TO him
"It is due to you, sir, that you
should be relieved from further duty
in this company, because if | were
in command on such an occasion, or
on any other occasion where we as
soldiers were sworn to defend the
law, and 1 saw you surrender your
gun to assailants of the law,yI would
use my pistol to shoot you down.
This would be my duty, and would
not fail to do my duty.
"Feeling as you do about the
duties of a soldier you are certainly
not qualified to remain longer in the
service of the State"
Captain Starr lectured the com
pany on their duties as soldiers and
told them they must not forget that
whei.,they are called out they are to
defend the law, and it is not a de-
fense of negro fiend or any other
kind of fiend-they simply stand be-
tween government and anarchy.
