NEW TRADE GETTING IDEA.
Muscosee (okla.) Newspaper Sent Out
Train For the Patrons.

Just to show the merchants OF Mus
cogee, Okla, what can be done in the
way of trade getting n Muscogee after
noon paper advertised trade excur
sion Of its own, but instead OF sending
the business men out among the people
it went out and brought the people
right into the Muscogee stores.
The new line of the Missouri, Okla
homa and Gulf road, opened to Calvin,
was selected for the experiment. A
special train was sent out, and every
one who wished to come to Muscogee
was given a free ticket by the news
paper. The result was that 800 (by
actual count persons came into Mus
cogee on that one train. When they
were ready to return special train
took them free Of charge. 1t is esti-
mated that the crowd spent at least
$4,000 during the day, and new sys-

Hines Triple Play.

Although record books dispute the
triple play made by Paul Hines of the
Providence club in Il game with the
Bostons in Providence, II. l.. May 8,
1878, there Is no doubt, in view of the
evidence of eyewtueSses like Il. ii.
Murnane, George Wright and Jack
Manning, who were players In the
game, that Hines made the play. The
play was so extraordinary that the
official scorer failed to record it prop
erly. and that fact led the late Henry
Chadwick TO dispute it. The bases
were full Mt the time, and, with the
infc!d"rs playing in, the Boston bats

The Optimist's Gospel.

Keep on with a will
Up Prosperity hill.
The secret OF winning Is never stand still.
Step lively and when
You are weary, why, then
Is the very best time to go at 1t again.
The man or the town
That would annex renown
Must buck the line heavy and never lie
down.
II trades on the blink,
Mix It up stin drink
OF the old approved remedy, good print
ers ink.
Let the world know your name
BY repeating the same.
The dope is publicity. Get in the game.
You will never be known
II your fame is not blown
Through a newspaper rolled like a big
megaphone.
The fellows who boost
Are the ones introduced
To the people who perch on tho top OF
the roost.
For men who can boom
There is plenty OF room
Higher up, but no space for purveyors Of
gloom.
We receive what We earn.
Help each public concern
That is worthy and 1t will assist you In
turn,
For the great law holds true:
What you give comes to you;
In your own coin you're paid when your
wages fall due.
Help your town to progress
And SO share its success.
The way to a blessing is others TO bless
Be booster and shine
At the head OF the line.
To uplift and improve Is the mandate
divine.

The Waste of Baseballs.

1t may possibly look undignitied for
the owner of n big league club to pros
ccute patrons who insist on keeping
balls fouled into the stands. but the
fans who dcridc the efforts of park po-
liccmcn to recover these balls have no
idea what 1t costs to furnish this am
munition. In one of the games recent
ly played by PhtSburg the loss
amounted to $3.50. as thirty balls
were lost. No business man would
stand for such "lcakage' as this
every day without making some effort
to stop 1t, and that is why the club
owners insist on the return of these
balls. It's queer thing that men who
would be insulted If taxed with dis
honesty and who would not stoop to
petty larceny will steal baseball and
then perjure themselves to keep it.

was almost down to third when Hines
made wonderful catch. He ran to
third and by touching the base doubled
up the two runners who had gone
home There the real play ended, but
Sweeney of Providence. seeing Il base
runner trying to get back to second,
called to Hines to throw to him. and
this fact led TO the confusion Of the
official scorer It was of course wholly
unnecessary to throw to Sweeney.

VALUE OF BEAUTY.
How Tastefulness and Touches Of Ar.
tistic Beauty Pay.


The last thing to arrive in the devel-
opment of the commercial spirit In
America is the sense OF the actual mar
ket value of beauty. In no country In
the world have business and ugliness
been so completely and persistently
identified as in the United States. No
ST. Louisan, for example, desires to
live in or very near to a manufacture
ing district, irrespective of noise, dust
or odor, because the great majority or
our factories are bare, square boxes or
brick, angular and unadOrned, without
n hint of the shade of trees or the
greenness of grass, and flanked by
heaps OF coke, pig iron and lumber. 1t
is necessary to go to Belgium or Ger
many or to some place in the United
States where foreign examples have
taken root. as in parts Of the manu-
featuring district OF Moline, ILL.,, to see
factories whose tasteful buildings are
Overrun with vines and bordered with

trees are artistically disposed.
the value Of adjoining real estate and
does away with the no mans land
between factory and residence district.
1t rests the eye and the spirit and so
makes for human efficiency.
The life Of the busy man, whether
clerk, merchant, mechanic or manufac.
turcr, is divided into an industrial part
to art nd u
divided to correspond. Anything that
pushes the unavoidable ugliness OF
work into the realm Of home life. that
carries the strain of the day beyond
the business district. is bad business.
This the billboard does. 1t vulgariZes
the residence districts OF the town that
permits it.
The domestic atmosphere OF resi-
dence streets is as important to Il
towns we'll being as is the commercial
atmosphere Of business streets. The
critical visitor and the would be resi-
dent are impressed in the business dis
trict by crowds. loaded trucks. full
switches and other signs OF business
enterprise. No less are they impressed
by the atmosphere OF home in the resi-
dencc districts by streets where moth
ing meets the eye but the curving sur
face of the roadway. the white face Of
the sidewalks. the green OF grass and
trees and the cheerful red walls OF

FIRE ENGINE TO
BE PURCHASED

At the special meeting Of the
fire department held Tuesday
evening for the purpose of dec
iding on the purchase Of fire
fighting appartus, good number
of citizens were presant. The
meeting was called for the pur-
pose Of meeting E. A. Raddatz a
representative of the Waterous
Engine Co. of Minneapolis who
came here at the request Of the
department. The proposition the
company made was that they
would furnish us a No. 6 Wat
erous Gasoline fire engine one
hose cart and 500 feet Of good
guaranteed fire hose for $1,000
f. O. b. Minneapolis. The engine
is guaranteed to pump and force
from 25O to 300 gallons Of water
per minute to start instantly and
to work in all kinds Of weather.
Those present seemed well
pleased with the proposition and
will order the same. providing
the terms, etc decided on are
agreeable to the company.
That Ekalaka will be we'll
equipted to fight fires in the
future seems now assured.
An engine like the one the
department contemplates pur-
chasing will fill long felt want
in the town and furnish US with
fire protection for better than
most of the small towns Of the
country have today. A hose,
engine and fire house will be
erected and this probably will be
built where the large pump now
stands. The water situation
here is not to be questiond as it
a known fact that an unlimited
supply of it can be had by dig
ging from 10 to 20 feet. A
number of large wells will be
dug in different parts of the town
alrangeing now it SO that each
resident will be within 500 feet
Of the same. The engine will
be shipped to arrive here about
Feb. l if all arrangements now
made are satisfactory.

JOE MCDONNELL
PASSES AWAY

Monday morning after several
weeks illness Joe H. Mcdonnell
passed away at his home on
Coal Creek. The end though
not entirely unexpected, of his
life upon this earth, came as a.
shock to his many friends and
acquaintance in this country
and it was with deep sorrow
that the news spread among
them. Death was due to a COM
lica ion of diseases, his last suff-
ering being brought about by
pneumonia. A few years ago
Mr.. Mcdonnell was hurt in a run
away. two ribs being crushed
in which caused a weakness in
his lungs. This spring he
jOurneyed to Rochester to consult
the Mayo Broters, who informed
hin that they could do nothing
for him. He returned home and
seemed to be improving up
until a few weeks ago when he
was again taken down, this time
to rise no more.
Joe H. Mcdonnell was born in
the city Of Deleware in the state
Of Ohio on July "a, 1874. In his
younger days he risided in Austin,
No. from which place he re moved
to Montana. Six years ago he
arrived at Ekalaka and purchased
the Frank Wood ranch on Coal
creek. at which place he :had
been continuously residing. until
the time Of his death. He was
a member in good standing of
Austin Lodge No. 178, l. O. O..
+. and was recognized so by the
local lodge.
Funeral services were held
Tuesday afternoon at the lodge
rooms after which the remains
followed by the scrrowing g
friends and relations were taken
to the l. O. 0. F. cemetary
where they were laid to final
rest.
The deceased leaves a wife
and adopted son to mourn his
demise from this life. who have
the sympathy of the entire COM
munity in this, thier hour Of be-
reavenlent.
