CROWD SUCCESSFUL.
-Four Of the Party Caught Tarpons
Most Pleasant Outinu.

After a pleasant outing for several
days in search OF the strenuous tar
pons. w. B.. Johnson. J. f. Humphrey
and j. c. Graham have returned. j. b
Spragin Of the party will arrive to
night.
The party tell thrilling stories OF
how a tarpon is caught and they are
interesting, too. ono Of Mrl John
sons hands was lacerated by one OF
he big fish. The sport is somewhat
dangerous. but exciting enough.
The tarpon caught by Mr.. Graham
was attacked bv a shark and ruined
for mounting. The tarpons caught by
the party are being mounted and will
be brought to Ardmore.
Mr.. Johnson's FISH will measure
owe six feet and n wa very proud
Of his catch. Since arriving here he
has been busy answering questions
relative to tarpons. He will probably
publish a book for the benefit of his
many friends and admirers.

Work Of an Incendiary.

What was declare ed to be a bastard.
~ attempt to destroy Mrs. r. \. Gro
mer's residence, by fire, was made yes
tcrday morning about ! O'Clock and 10
accomplish the purpose a quantity of
excelsior saturated with coal oil was
used. Had 1t not been for the timely
discovery of the blaze by Mrs. Round
tree. the residence would no doubt
have been consumed as a liberal sup
ply Of oil was used and the person
or PERSONS who were implicated in the
deal seemed determind to fire the
house.
II was shortly after one o'clock when
Mrs. Roundtree, who was mp attending
her laughter, who was sick, noticed
a bright blaze in the rear of the build
ing. She started an investigation and
discovered that the back part Of the
house was on fire. She called her
husband and also Mr.. Shuman, one OF
the roomers who started out in his
night attire to eXtinguish the blaze.
He said that prompt action was nee
essary and worked hard, using buck.
cts of water. The fire department
came shortly afterwards, but the fire
had been extinguished.
II seems from the statement made
by Mr.. Shuman that a box filled with
excelsior and saturated with coal oil
was placed under the rea portion
of the house and set on fire. There
is considerable Systery attached to
the attempt to fire the residence. Mrs.
Cromer ia at present in Texas on a
visit. The house is insured.
Mr.. Mcknight, who resides next
door, states that he heard some one
strike two matches, but did not pay
any attention TO the matter until the
fire broke out. The damage to the
residence was slight. Mr.. and Mrs.
Shuman and Mr.. and Mrs. Roundtree
are rooming at the house. Officers
win probably investigate the case.

vorable to single statehood. One state
Of Oklahoma and Indian Territory

question of a doubt as to the out
come. The delegates to the recent Ok.
lahoma City convention were repre-
sentative men and thcse delegates eX.
pressed the views Of Che two terri
tories when they unanimously declar
ed for single statehood. Politicians
and aspiring towns In both terrific
ries have repeatedly tried TO start sep
arate statehood movements and hold
separate statehood conventions, but
all have proven failures and will con
tinue so. The only results that the
double statehood people can hope fol
from these conventions will be TO furn
ish some of the anti-statehood con
gressmon with ammunition for use
In congress to delay the passage of q
bill admitting Oklahoma and Indian
