Unidentified Man Kills Himself.

Chickasha, Okla, Dec. Am un-
identified man committed suicide in
a hardware store in this city this
afternoon. He went into the store
and asked to see a revolver. When
one was given him he loaded it and
shot himself through the head, dying
instantly. The name Cass Graham
was found on the outside of a memo
randum book. He left letter unad-
dressed to his brothers and sisters
telling them that fate was against
him and he had decided TO die. He
was about 80 years old, dark hair and

eral confusion, reducing the raw re-
cruits to a homogeneous mass with
the old troops and accustoming the
whole to the utmost precision OF
movement and management of arms
and to yield punctilious obedience to
orders. By imparting discipline he
gave confidence to the officers and
men and enabled the troops from diff
ferent parts of the country to act to-
gether with unanimity and effect. By
introducing military habits of strict
obedience he suppressed tumult and
disorder, and by his rigid system of
inspection great sums were saved at
a time when the very existence of the
nation depended on economy in the
army. Warm hearted, affectionate,
generous to the extreme, the soldiers
loved him and many officers regard
ed him with romantic affection He
was prompt to acknowledge a mis-
take and eager to make reparation
wherever it was due.
IL cannot close my few remarks in
a better way than by quoting the
words of your national hero, George
Washington. On the day he resign
ed his commission as commander in
chief he wrote to Steuben that he
wished to make use of his last mo-
ment of his public life to express to
Steuben in the strongest terms his
sense of the obligation the public
was under to him for his faithful and
meritorious services"

THE LARGEST FRUIT
 CONCERN IN THE SOUTH.
The Secret of Their Success.

Just three years ago Banks & Co. opened little fruit stand at IS South Twentieth, buying in small quantities apples by the barrel, oranges by the box, peanuts one sack at time, ba- nanas half dozen punches.
 Being satisfied with a small profit handling only the best fruits grown prompt deliveries, this concern has grown to be the largest fruit and veg etable dealers south of the Ohio river, buying only in car load lots, a large portion of their fruit comes from Cal ifornia, such as oranges. grapes, pine apples, nuts and raisins, figs, etc.
 Apples are shipped to them by the hundred barrel lots from Minnesota peanuts come to them from Virginia in large quantities, celery comes from Kalamazoo, Mich.
 The secret of their success Is in buy ing in large quantities, thus they are enabled to save you from 25 to 40 per cent on your fruit order. This pro- gressive concern has added another line to their fruits which is meeting with remarkable success. They handle a line of fresh vegetables.
