Hurt by a Fall.

Mrs M. Il. Clark, who is about so
years of age, met with serious in
jury by an accident on Thursday of
last week. She was working about
her place on Center street on the
Webb Mason tract. There is a cellar
door close to one of the doors of a
room, and this was in some way left
open. Mrs Clark in attempting to
pass out of the room stepped in the
opening, falling down flight of nine
steps, or about 6 feet. She struck
against some of the woodwork,
fracturing the jaw, and otherwise in
juring her about the face. Neighbors
came to her assistance promptly.
Quite pool of blood had collected
IN the spot where she fell. DR.. Call
was summoned and dressed her in
juries, and 'she is doing as we'll as
could be expected, considering her
age. She has been confined to her
bed ever since the accident, suffering
more from the shock to her system
than anything else.

Fred c. TRACY NOT GUILTY
Case Decided Quickly by
The Jury.

After occupying the attention of
the federal court, at Enid, Okla,
for more than five days, the case of
the United States VS.. F. c. Tracy,
charged with burglarizing the Beav-
er post Office, on the night of Mo-
vember I, 1907, came to close
Friday evening, June 26, at g
O'Clock p. m. The jury returned a
verdict of not guilty.
We have been personally &C
quainted with Mr.. Tracy for a num-
Der of years and we could not con-
meet our mind with the thought that
Fred Tracy would blow up his own
safe and take his reputation and
his liberty in his hands for the
paltry sum of four or five hundred
dollars, and we are glad that Mr..
Tracy has been able to prove his
innocence and remove the disgrace
and distress that was lowering over
him and his family.
This paper has said very little
about this case or any one connec-
ted with it, fer the reason that we
knew nothing personally of the
facts or the supposed facts concern
ing the case, and for the further
reason that we did not desire to
mould any public opinion, for that
can be as a rule moulded fast
enough by single individuals.
From the reports of the Enid
papers the United States failed
absolutely to establish any evidence
of guilt on the part of Mr.. Tracy,
and the case was decided by the
jpry on the first ballot. So,
Mr.. Tracy in all probability
should never have been indicted in
the first place. and as he has by a
thorough investigation by the United
States Court, proved his innocence.

any one as to his guilt in the matter

Ppatf1O. Meade 2.

The weather was bad and so was
the game. 1t was pay day for the
home boys and they seemed to be
disinterested. One Mr.. Notter, a
long lean individual was On the rub
Der for the railroaders while a Mr..
Chaplin, the Plains phenomena at
tempted to mystify the visitors.
The young gentleman has been
suffering of late from an abnormally
developed hatholder but Saturdays
game served to reduce his hat meas
ure several sizes. Fifteen hits were
garnered off his delivery, every man
on the Pratt team hitting safe among
which were several and 8 baggers.
The principal features of the game
was the batting of Dale and Evans
the former getting three hits, one a
S-bagger, the latter getting two
hits, one a 2-bagger. Twist and
Sweet succeeded in pulling off the
Alphonse-Gaston stunt to per-
fection, however Sweet made up for
it by whaling out a line drive which
scored Evans. Twist per. Grated
the ozone three times and failed to
hit safely. One Bones Chamber
lain, some relative of the famous
doctor. succeeded IN assembling the
largest number of errors. Follick
made pretty peg to home from
deep left cutting off the runner by
ten feet. H. Taggart seemed to
have trouble in making the bal
stick in his nit, although, he re
deemed himself later by a running
catch. Roy Taggart appeared tc
be troubled with a bad case of near.
sightedness in the fifth inning, wher
he ran in under fly and allowed 9
man to score. Pratt made three
runs in the opening session 'ano
later as often as they pleased.

The Fourth.

=
/ Last Saturday was an-ideaI day for the
celebration and large crowd began gather
ing early IN the day and by the middle of
the afternoon it was estimated that about
1900 people had assembled within the limits
of the city. The Cimarron band was on the
ground early in their sacarlet uniforms and
presented very spectacular appearance and
they furnished good music throughout the
day.
The first event of the day was the tennis
game which were won as follows:
Singles, Frank Wood.
Doubles, Herbert Conger and Fred Flick.
The next event was the ball nine between
the Meade and Ashland Juniors in which the
home boys got licked. The score appears
elsewhere.
After this was the parade in which several
of our merchants had very creditabie displays.
the only objection to this was that all of
them should have been represented.
Immediately after dinner the band led the
way to the race course southwest of the City
where the races were pulled off.
The quarter mile dash was won by J. B..
Caughlin, with a 3-year old Morgan colt,
the second was by V. w. WolAey. The
purse was SIS and $40.
The harness race was won by s. P. Chase
and Geo. Allen got second, the purses were
the same as the first race.
H. ILL T.
Eliason, first and Geo. Allen second, same
purses.
The relay race was VOL by J. B. Caughiin,
first and Henry Meyer, second, same purses.
The Cimarron furnished music during the
races and everyone was interested and the
time passed rapidly.
After the races, the train bringing the
| Pratt ball team being late, the crowd went
to the ball park where they waited until the
ball team came which was in a very short
time and they again witnessed the slaughter
of the. home team, full account of same, writ
ten by one of the fans, appears of record in
another place in this paper.
Next came the minor sports for the young
er crowd, the first being the foot race which
was won by Geo. Wherle, first and an
Englewood boy named Parks was second.
! The girls foot race was won by Florence
Dorland first and Ethel Innis second.
The high jump was won by John Bohiing.
The sack race was won by Geo. Wehrle,
first and the second we did not learn.
/ The first price in the ladies nail driving
contest was won by Mrs. Georgia Byrns and
we did not learn second.
The celebration closed with grand bal
at Phelps Opera house at which the Gin
arron Band furnished the music. There was
a large crowd present and just before II
o'clock the festivities ceased and everyone
went home.
The celebration was success and there
was not an unpleasant event 10 MARI the
j happiness of anyone, throughout the day.

Kid Game.

The Ball game between the Meade
kids and the Ashland kids in the
morning was largely attended.
About $50 people saw our kids
slaughtered. One Parks, of Ash
land, had all varieties of kinks up
his sleeve and had the Meade kids
up in the ether for fair. Only one
safe bingle made by Wehrle, was
all our gladiators could assemble.
The real cause of the defeat was the
fact that Homer Graves wing was
out of condition and he should not
have been allowed to pitch. He
twirled very good game however,
under the circumstances, The
Ashland bunch played good game
throughout and deserve all the cred
it due them. Meade made too
many errors, Farrell at short having
no less than five. Our boys were
much faster on the bases than Ash
land, but Ashland out hit them.
Only one sacrifice hit was made,
Backe advancing runner to 3rd in
the 9TH inning. McMeel was the
only kid to make the circuit for
Meade. The tabulated score fol-
lows:
