At the castle the deepest gloom pre-
vailed. 1t was like a nightmare to
the bcleaguered household, dream
from which there seemed to be no
awakening. Colonel Quinnox as COM
mander of the royal guard ruled su-
preme. General BraZe tore off his
own epaulets and presented himself to
Quinnox as a soldier of the file.
Prince Robin. quite recovered from
his fright donned the uniform of a
colonel of the royal dragons, buckled
on his jewcled sword and, with bOyish
zeal, demanded at Il council of war,
Colonel QuinnoX's reasons for not go
ing forth to slay the rioters.
Your highness," said the colonel
bitterly. the real army is outside the

WHEN COMPANY COMES.

When the pies are in the pantry,
And the chickens in the pot,
And the house is neat and tidy,
Then the company comes not.
But when pantry shelves are empty,
And a pickedup dinner waits,
While the baby mas the collie,
Then they enter at your gates.
When the tabecloth is dirty,
Stained with gravy and with squash
The lace curtains at the laundry,
And the bedspreads in the wash:
When you're doing the fall cleaning,
Rugs and carpets on the line,
Then your husbands dear relations
Come to visit or to dine.
81 they eat the picked-up dinner,
And decide they cannot stay:
They must do little shopping"
And they quickly haste away.
Then they tell all the relations
How their visit was call:
That Jane is no wife for Reuben:
She's no housekeeper at ALL"
When they're gone you tell the baby,
While you wipe your misty eyes,
BABY, when we make a visit,
Well not take them by surprise"

OKLAHOMA HAS
GREAT SENATORS
OWEN SAID TO HAVE MADE BEST
ADDRESS CHICAGO CITY CLUB
EVER HEARD.

J. S. Mullen today said to an Ard
moreite representative: Last Satur-
day | had the good fortune to sit at
the speakers table at the city club in
Cmcago where senator Robert l..
Owen of this state was its chief guest.
The attendance, so l was told, was
the largest in many years.
His subject was on Honest Gov
eminent and How to Acquire It. At
the same table We're Chas. r. Crane,
who presided over the meeting, and
was once appointed minister to China,
C. A. Bartlett, Americas greatest
hardware merchant; VIM. Kent, men,
Der of congress, second district of
California; Julian C. Mack, member
of the federal court of commerce;
Fletcher Dobbins, special United
States attorney; Frank C. Haney,
prosecutor of graft in California; E.
A. Bancroft, president of the Illinois
bar association; s. l.. Rodgers, chair
man of Chicago committee of seven
for good government; Graham Tay-
lor, head of Chicago commons, and
Sigmond Zergler, president of Chi
cago bar association. The meeting
was largely attended by men of equal
prominence in both the state and ma
tion.
For an hour the senator, in an
eloquent appeal for good gov
ernment, elected much interest
and applause Mr.. Bancroft,
considered one of the greatest
lawyers in America, and surely COM
petent to judge, told me afterward,
that it was the finest speech of its
kind he had ever heard.
1T is this kind of commendation
abroad that makes for the good of
our entire commonwealth"

Theodore Roosevelt's African Book
Ready.

heduy.
After months of preparation, and
careful supervision since his return
by Mr.. Roosevelt, his great book,
african Game Ttrails," appears all
over the United States, in England,
France, Germany and Sweden. In
order that the tremendous initial de-
mand might be promptly met, Messrs.
Charles Scribners Sons have printed
the book both in the east and in the
west, and every effort is making to
distribute the book with celebrity
through the dozen or more central
agencies of Messrs. Scribner in the
great cities from New York to San
Francisco.
This volume is a large octave of
more than five hundred pages print
ed from beautiful type and elabor-
ately illustrated. 1t contains more
than forty thousand words that did
not appear during the serial publica-
tion, and in addition numerous pic
lures made especially for the volume.
The subjects for the original draw
ings were selected by Mr.. Roosevelt
and they We're made under his ad-
vice. More than thousand agents
have been at work for some time sell
ing this book by means OF an elab-
crate prospectus, and new applica-
tions are being received at the rate
of about one hundred day for ter
ritory, so that every corner Of this
country will soon be reached, and,
with the large facilities of the pub
fishers, it is believed that even the
unprecedented demand will be
promptly filled. 1t is doubtful wheth-
er any volume has attracted the
worldwide attention of this and has
so large an audience ready and eager
to secure the finished work of the
most distinguished American at the
present day and the one best known
to all civilized nations.
James T. Burns is selling this book
in Carter county.

BONNER MAY YET
RECEIVE PARDON
UNLESS 1T is RECEIVED, JOHN
BONNER WILL HAVE TO SERVE
FOUR YEARS FOR LARCENY.

Sheriff Akers stated this morning
that he would probably start for Nc
Alester in the morning with John
Bonner, convicted of larceny and sent
enced to four years at the last term
of the district court, an appeal was
taken, but the criminal court of ap-
peals sustained Judge Russell's sent
ence and he will be compelled to
serve his sentence unless a pardon is
granted by the governor.
A petition has been circulated TO
secure pardon for Bonner, and has
been presented to the governor by
his aged mother, but as yet no action
has been taken on the subject. The
petition sets forth the fact that he
was the sole support of his mother
and two of his children and to send
him to prison at this time would ere
ate them objects of charity.
Many are heard to express the
hope that the governor will grant the
pardon or parole and set Bonner free.

WEBER PIANO Co,
MAY LOCATE HERE
INDUSTRIAL ASSOCIATION RE-
CEIVES ASSURANCES OF Lo-
CATION OF A BIG FACTORY.

Col. h. a. White, one of the local
representatives of the Ardmore In
Gnstrial association, received let
ter this morning from the Okla
homa City portion of the company
that they had succeeded in consum-
mating a deal with the Webher Pi-
ano Company for the establishment
of piano factory in this city. On
what terms the factory agreed to
come is not known, but the Assoc
alton has heretofore published to
the world that it would give free
sites for factories and would take
an amount of stock commensurate
with the capital stock of the COM
pany.
The Webber people it is said
We're mixed up with the big failure
few years ago in Kansas City.
In that financial tumble Mr.. Weber
saved only his patents, his good
name, his dies and all the equip
ments necessary to manufacture the
piano. Today there is not a Web.
Der factory in the word and Col.
White says Ardmore has been Sc
lected as the place to build the
first factory. Fuel, labor and timber
are as plentiful here as any other
place in the United States and
there is no reason why factory
would not pay here as well as
anywhere else.
Mr. Webber will employ thirty
men for the first ninety days. sixty
men during the second ninety days
ami after that time one hundred
men will be regularly employed at
an average wage of $21 a week,
making a payroll of $2,1OO weekly.
This factory will be the only one
of its kind west of the Mississippi
river
Col White is of the opinion that
the factory is certainty and that
immediate work will begin.
The total output of the factory
for the first two years are said to
be contracted for in advance.
