JOHN M. MAGNESS DEAD
End Came Peacefully at His Home
 Near Town Tuesday

John M. Magness died at his ! home few miles north of town about noon Tuesday.
 While his death was not unex- pected, 1t was nevertheless quite a shock to his many friends and cast gloom over the entire communi- ty.
 MT. Magness was stricken with a severe cold while out on the campaign during the latter part of February. But little was thought of it by his friends at thetime, as the trouble was not expected to devel- op into anything of serious nat ure. After a few days he began to improve and at one time was able to sit up good deal for several days. Some time ago he grew worse, however, and gradually de- clined until death resulted Tues day.
 John M. Magness was born June 20, 1867. He was married to Miss Mary Barber March 13. 1889. Seven children were born unto them, four boys and three girls, all of whom survive him He pro- fessed religion and joined the Methodist church in 1901, and his life was that of consistent Christian.
 MT. Magness was the Democrat ic nominee for sheriff, having been nominated in the primary held on the 30th of March, and despite the fact that he was at the time sick in bed and had been for more than 8 month, he was nominated over his nearest opponent by a plurality of 140 votes, his nearest opponent receiving 474 votes and Mir. Mag ness 614.
 Mr. Magness was a man who at all times and under all cireumstan- ces walked the we'll beaten path of righteousness, and when fully con- scious that he was nearing the end he manifested no dread of the fut- ure. Could all live the just and up- right life he lived, and die in his trusting faith, death would be rob- bed of many of it's terrors. Con- science always guided his every act, and he was not only good Christian, but an honorable and upright gentleman in the highest and truest sense. He enjoyed the respect and confidence of all sects and classes, as the attendance at his funeral fully verified. His cheerful, helpful life; his devotion to his family and his universal kindness to every body will long finger as a fragrant memory in the home which his presence bright ened and which death has now darkened. Though he is gone, his record has been made and will re- main as a lasting treasure to those who knew and loved him best.
 The funeral was held at the Methodist church, the services be- ing conducted by Revs. 1. II. Rus sell, C. F. lively and E. A. Horn. Interment was made at the Blue Springs cemetery under the au- spices of the Woodmen of the World, of which he had been member for a number of years. The last sad rites were witnessed by perhaps the largest crowd of people ever assembled on similar occasion in Newark.

A New Line of Railroad for Ardmore

While some persons have been
Of the opinion that the survey now
being made to Chckasha was a mere
buff. yet information OF a positive
nature has been received TO the
effect that plans are being laid to
build line of steam railroad from
Sherman. Texas, through Ardmore to
Chiekasha or lawton.
There arc also good reasons for
believing that London, England,
capitalists are behind the project.
The survey is not being made from
Sherman TO Ardmore for the reason
the route has already been sur.
veyed and all information necessary
has been complied.
II is known that the survey for
this line OF railroad is being made
