Suicide.

Mr. Robert Redding, proprietor OF
the Coy Corner restaurant, corner OF
Silver avenue. committed suicide last
Sunday afternoon by shooting himself
through the heart. He was alone at
the time, but the evidence shows that
death was instantaneous.
Mr.. Redding was a native Of Ken
tucy, 65 years Of age, one of Califor-
Mas pioneers, and has been a resident
Of New Mexico for over thirty years.
He has long been an intense sufferer
frlm asthma, and his agony was ex.
cruciating for sometime before his
death. He was thought to be near his
end, and his wife, who was alone with
him, went out for some one TO be with
her in his last moments. Alone, life
became simply uncomfortable, and crazed
with pain, he took what little life he
had to end his sufferings. Mr.. R. was a
member of the masonic order and was
buried according to the masonic rites on
the following day.
Disturb not his slumber
Nor anathemas thunder
For mis- choice to lie under
Under the sod.

our best bargains. There will be nearly
sufficient hay on the place this year to
pay one half the present price of the

will not be for sale until this seasons

LATEST USE FOR AUTOS

The old time circus, the well-.o, edwa on
shows of our boyhood, are undergoing
the evolution of the period and the enter
prislng owner of circus. announces that
the coming year, his wagons will be
abandoned and his show will go about
the country by automobile.
The Snowman says he has thought the
matter well over before he decided on
this. lie says he realizes that the average
person cherishes sort OF romantic af-
fection for the wagon show and that peo-
pie in general, delight in watching the
wagons come into town drawn by four,
six or eight spanking horses. The automo.
bile will spoil all this but the Snowman
says he believes he can get around to
better advantage by automobile and that
it will be cheaper.
It sets one TO wondering if there is any
thing that the automobile will not, sooner
or later be found better adapted to than
the horse.

of the Territory at an election, a Ccnsti-
tutional convention has to be called. and
there are several other points which have
10 be looked after before Oklahoma can
become full-hedged tsate.
The question of placing the additional
star on the flag has been occupying the
attenton,o of Quartermaster General Hum.
phreys and Admiral Cowies, Chief Of tha
Equipment Bureau of the Navy whl
have charge of the making and issulrg
of the national flags 10 the army and
navy. respectively for some time. They
have finally settled the matter. as the
following dispatch from Washington
shows
1T has been decided that the adm's-
sion into the Union Of the state Of Okla
homa shall be recorded by the addition
of a star in the blue field Of the hag
placed at the lower right-hand corner.
But as several things remain to be done
before the new State is actually admit
ted. and as the law provides that the
additional star shall only be set in the
field at the beginning Of the next fiscal
year after the State is one in fact. the
Oklahoma star will not be seen on the
national ensign until July l. 1907 and,
therefore. the salutes which have been
given are premature"
Evening journal., 1906-07-09
BUT FORTY-FIVE STATES
salutes Fired on July in Honor of
Oklahoma Were Premature.

Are there 45 or 46 statesw was tho
question. asked by people all over The
country yesterday, and because very few
people knew definitely. many more are
asking the same question to-day.
The trouble arose when the firing Of
salutes in honor OF the Fourth came up
AS is well known. it is the custom on the
nations birthday TO fire one gun for
each state in the Union at all army POSTS
and on all the vessels Of the navy. The
custom has extended in other directions,
and many persons fire huge cannon crack
ers or pistols or decorate their buildings
with one flag for each State on July a.
For several years il has been easy to de-
eide the correct number Of guns to be
fred, as it has been over 10 years since
the last State-Utah-was admitted 10 the
Union. and every school child has had It
instilled into its head since than that
1.-THE United States is composed Of IS
States" This year Il was different. how
ever, for Congress passed a bill admit
ting oklahoma as a State. which would
make the number of States i6; but wheth-
er it was really a state or not could not
be settled by most people. As a result in
many places the salute was in honor Of
45 States and at others in honor Of As.
This confusion also existed in the minds
of the officers of the army and navy and
at many posts and on board many boats
IS guns were fired at the noon hour the
time for firing the salute At the Delaware
river forts As guns were fired, as usual as
no official announcement of the admission
of the new State has yet been made by
the government
The correct answer to the question ask
ed by so many is IS. Oklahoma has been
granted permission by Congress to come
into the Union as a State but has not
yet fulfilled the necessary conditions In
the first place, the question Of becoming
a State has to be decided by the voters

AETNA LOST
Newark Boys Blamed Defeat on the
Umpire. Left Field in Ninth.
Special TO Tho Evening journal.

Special 20 rho Evening journal.
NEWARK, July 9.-The long talked Of
ball game between Aetna and Elk Mills
was pulled off on Saturday at Elk Mills,
and resulted in a victory for Elk Mills.
The question is, can any one truthfuly
say that the nine players won the gamer
Well 81 guess not" Their valued um-
pire played the best part of the game. SO
positive was he of winning that he in
formed the people on Friday night to
place all they could get on the Maryland
boys for 1t was a sure thing that he would
win the game. and it is now a settled fact
that he did. OF course 1t is generally
known that when a team is beaten away
from home it is blamed on the umpirs,
and such a story has become "chestnu's' -
but in this case there was no chestnuts
about it. It was nothing but down. right
plain rotten robbery. for not only the
Newark people but dozens Of others right
from their own town and even three Of
their own players admitted that it was
rotten"
About 20 rooters accompanied the team
to Elk Mills expecting to see royal bat
tie as tho two teams on June played
a twelve inning game. Aetna winning 4
10 3.
The crowd was badly disappointed. fer
instead Of the team trying to win they
depended on the umpire. Murray the old
veteran, was i'm the box and although he
had eleven strike-outs, there was not a
single one called. He had TO make the
mon strike or else it was called n ball
For seven innings the Aetna struggled
through this kind of work, and by good
clean hard playing had the Maryland
boys at their mercy by the score Of to o.
But In the eighth IT get worse. men were
given bases on balls which should have
been strikes; men were put out on second
but We're called safe men were given hts
on foul balls, "a pretty double was made
and yet the umpire called the men SAFE
In fact 1t was impossible to retire the
side until they had scored four runs. then
OF course, the umpire was satisfied. he
had won the game and had made himself
famous in Elk Mills. But stiI the Aetnas
did not give up. They came to bat IN the
ninth determined to make a gallant finish
and with two men on bases Il looked as
though they would succeed. but no. Il
was impossible for the rottenest decision
OF the day then came and the boys walk d
on the field throwing up the sponge by
forfeit game . to in favor Of Elk Mills.
