GREATEST BATTLE
SINCE CIVIL WAR. :

tThe greatest battle since the civil
war is now being fought by the Amer
lean people. The struggle is as fierce
although no blood is shed"
Walter Falwell supervisor Of the
Greek and Seminole schools. was talk
ing about the present financial situa-
tion.
"The theory now being brought in-
to actual use by the western bankers
is one that will go down In history.
Ii the present financial crises is past
it will have been proven that the
bankers and the people Of the United
States are able to Withstand all the
fluries Of the gamblers OF Wall street
and the east. 1t will place in vogue q
system of banking that will forever
prevent clash or general panic In the
United States. The clearing house

has long been theory, but now an
actual fact.

things that has happened since / have

events
'It proves that bushel Of pota-
toes is its actual value at home. The
product is purchased from the farmer
who is given a check on the bank.
The clearing house certifies to Che
check and it goes out and is used as
currency. Its value is based on gold
and silver as measured by Che govern
ment. 1t is a system that shows that
the majority Of men are honest 1t is
a plan that will show up the dishon-
est man, for should he make of

According to Mr.. Falwell the people
are learning just what little use they
have for real money. 1t teaches the
people that good securities are worth
just as much if not more, -Muskogee

Atoka, 1. T., Nov. "A daring bank
robbery was accomplished at the little
town Of Lewis, on the NJ, K. & T.,
four miles north of here Sunday morn
ing at about O'Clock.
The safe Of the Farmers State bank
was blown open and about eight hun
dred dollars carried away. Nitro
glycerine was used and three blasts
we're required to effect the opening.
The losses we're fully covered by in
surance.
The bank is a new institution, hay-
ing been in operation only about a
month. It was temporarily quarter
ed in the Rosensky mercantile estab-
lishment, and the whole back end Of
building was blown of.
As to whence the robbers came who
they are, whether they went has not
vet been found the least clue
Lewis is but village, surrounded
by a bowling wilderness. 1t was in a
half mile Of here that a bold train
robbery was made some i've years ago.
There is great excitement prevailing
and officers are working diligently.

HUMAN FOOT FOUND
ON CINDER PILE

Muskogee, Nov. Sat noon yester-
day negro man telephoned into the
police station that he had found a
human foot on a Icinder pile over by
the Crystal Ice company's plant and
asked what he must do with It. He
was directed to bring it into the sta
tion, which he did.
The foot, which belongedto a white
man, is dreadsally injured, and IS eVi-
IDENTIFY an amputation. 1t IS still IN a
good state Of preservation. The po-
police will bury it this evening The
station officials are naturally indig-
nant that such gruesome relics Of the
surgeons art should be thrown promis-
cuously around the town, and will try
to land the man responsible for It,.
At law it is nothing but q nuisance
to SO dispose Of amputations, but the
man who committed the present nui-
sance will be stuck to the limit II ne
brought to the police court.

David Bispham.

David S. Bispham, the famous bari
tone. was born lin Philadelphia Jan
uary 5. 1857. He was educated at
Haverford college, and for number of
years was an amateur singer before
taking to the operate stage. He
studied music under Vannuccini and
Lamperti in Italy. and the popular
teacher, Shakespeare. in London. For
many years he was engaged in busin-
esS, and it was not until chance or
good fortune enabled him (rather later
in life than most singers) to give his
entire attention to the art. that he
became professional. London, city
to which Bispham is largely indebted
for his success, first heard him en- the
concert platform in Oratorio and as
a ballad singer. Later he secured IN
opening as an operate singer in la
Basoche" at the Royal English opera
house. Since 1891 he has been the
principal baritone at the Royal opera,
Convent Garden. During several seas
Ons in America he established himself
as a favOrite by his representations of
