Wife.

Upon the return of Pastor Armstrong
and wife from Davis City, where they
held successful meeting, their many
friends had planned for them pleasant
surprise, having taken possession of the
parsonage and spread bounteous re-
past of good things, and among other
useful presents presented the worthy
pastor and his excellent wife was an
elegant white maple kitchen cabinet,
as token of esteem and appreciation
of the friends and businessmen of the

Hung Himself While playing.

In an attempt to amuse a little bow
with whom he was playing in barn on
the farm of James Mason, five miles
northwest of Princeton, Eva Brooks,
thirteen years old, hanged himself by
the neck with a dog chain and strangled
to death.
Young Brooks and Il little son of
James Goddard had gone to the barn to
play. Brooks climbed to the manger,
fastened one end of the chain to raft
er and the other end around his neck.
"Well, just guess l will hang myself"
he said to his companion in playful
way. just then he slipped from the
manager and hung by the neck. When
his companion saw the plight the Brooks
boy was in he tried to release him, but
failing in this, he ran to the house and
informed Mr.. Mason. Mr.. and Mrs.
Mason hurried to the barn and took the
boy down, but they were too late. Life
was extinct. DR.. Powell of Mercer,
was summoned, but nothing could be
done.
Alva Brooks was a son of Mr.. and
Mrs. VIM. Brooks, both deceased. When
he became an orphan Mr.. and Mrs.
Mason took him to raise. He was an
extremely bright little fellow and was
we'll liked and we'll treated by them.
While the circumstances Indicate
suicide, the friends of the boy firmly
believe it was an accident. He seemed
in a particularly jolly mood that day
and was having great fun with his little
playmate.
The funeral was held Wednesday, and
the remains were inferred in the Fair
ley cemetery beside his mother

NO SALOONS IN OKLAHOMA
Scores Closed Under Terms of Con-
stitution of New State.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Nov. 10
When II o'clock came Saturday night
approximately $50 saloons in Oklahoma
closed as the result of the statewide
prohibition provision in the state con
stitution.
The greatest number of saloons in
one town was 65 at Oklahoma City.
where the fixtures of each saloon had
an average value of about 81 500. The
only breweries in the state, two in
number, were in Oklahoma City.
An idea of the traffic cut off may be
gained from the statement of an ex.
perienced saloonkeeper. He said the
gross income of each saloon in Okla
homa would average $40 day, making
a total of s3,696,OO0 paid annually for
alcoholic beverages by the people of
one-half of the new state. Indian Ter
