He took the matter in quiet
way and hid his disappointment un-
der mask of stolid indifference. He
hated to go again to the condemned
cell and said: so the warden was
afraid that l would kill myself,
is he? Well, | won't. | don't care
what they do with me-"
He was given large cake of
ice to keep his cell as cool as
possible and a guard was placed
over him to watch his every move
ment in compliance with the law
1t is more than probable that
he will be re-sentenced to hang at
once and that the sentence will be
carried out within the next sixty
days. Only one loophole remains
for him and that is the action of
the board of pardons, and it is
hardly to be supposed that they will
take any action in the matter.

Hunt Wolves With an Airship.

A wcll-lnown business man of the
city has recently returned from a visit
to the Texas state fair at Dallas, where
he witnessed, among other things, the
flights Of The bird man in his air ship
and has come to the conclusion that
machine of that sort is just the
thing to hunt wolves with. He is a
devotoe of the chase and has pack
of fine wolf dogs, and he believes that
with the aid of an air ship he could
exterinmate all the wolves in this sec
tions of the state.
If the farmers of Carter county
should awake some morning and dis
cover an air ship lowering over their
timber patch it need cause no COM
ment, as in all probability it will be
this enthusiastic Ardmore citizen out
after a morning wolf.

Must Build or Forfeit Contract.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Oct. 22.-The
state board OF agriculture will serve
notice upon the Mckee Construction
Company of Muskogee to resume
work on the Murray district agricultu-
raj schol building at Tishomingo with
in forty-eight hours or consider Its
contract with the state at an end. The
legislature appropriated $4,000 for
the Tishomingo building. Contract
was awarded the Mckee company on
Nov. IS, 1909 and when the work
ceased the walls were nearly complet-
ed. About this time the company was
unable to negotiate cash upon the
states building warrants, but since
money has been available 1t is not ex-
planned why the work has not been
carried on. The Murray school has
an enrolment of 1877. Glasses are be-
Ing heard in the city school building
and store rooms which the Agricultu-
raj and Mechanical and Commercial
College committee rented, pending
completion of the states building.

Hea aIdton.

Healdton, Okla, Oct. 21.-The week
is closing with a cold north rain,
and with fair prospects for freezing
weather, which we trust will not come,
as it will be of great injury to the
cotton crop.
All open cotton is about picked aa1
ginned, and the nly-prospect no. is
for a top crop. There are a good
many bolls still to open on the plaat.
Our gin is now only running part of
the time, and may not reach 400 bales.
where it has usually put out 500 to
900 bales.
A good many cotton pickers from
this section have gone east t. pick,
where it is said the crop is better.
Parties living in this section for the
past twenty-five years say this is the
first failure they ever saw here.
A good deal of feedstuff is being
cut. It is hard to say what the rain
will do for it.
Leonard West has gone to Fort
Worth to the commercial school.
Grove Chase and family passed
through, going to Ardmore, yesterday.
Squire Wiseman Of Joiner was on
our streets yesterday.
We see lots of cotton seed being
hauled to ArdmorC.
A good many are talking Arkansas
as soon as they can get off. While a
setting hen may not get fat, roll
ing stone will surely gather no moss,
is an old adage, and Il true one.
A cold wet winter and the soil well
wet, and this section may again be
the garden spot of Oklahoma.
We all hope il may be.
No sickness TO speak of.

CRIMINALS FOR
STATE PRISONS
SHERIFF GARRETT WILL LEAVE
WEDNESDAY WITH BUNCH FOR
McALESTER AND GRANITE.

Because of peculiar condition aris-
ing out Of a mistake in vetoing an
appropriation bill, carrying with it
provisions for paying expenses Of sher-
ifs, guards and prisoners from the
various counties to the state peniten-
tiary and reformatory, Sheriff Buck
Garrett will have TO advance the nee
essary money to convey the prisoners
now confined in the county Jail to Nc
Alester and Granite, awaiting the ses-
sion of the next legislature to he re
funded. 1t is estimated that it will
cost approximately $500 to defray the
expenses of the Carter county prison
crs to the reformatory ut Granite and
the penitentiary. There are fifteen
prisoners to be sent to these institu-
tions, and possibly additional ones
may go,
Sheriff Garrett. accompanied by
guards, will leave Wednesday with the
prisoners.
Among those to go to the peniten-
tiary is Henry Washmood convicted
of the murder of former United States
Deputy Marshal Ben Collins. Wash
mood was sentenced to be hanged.
An appeal is pending, and under the
Oklahoma law a prisoner sentenced TO
capital punishment, whose case is
pending appeal, must be confined IN
the penitentiary, awaiting the decision
of the criminal court Of appeals.
Washmood's case IS one OF the noto.
rious ones Of territorial and early
statehood days. Together with Jim
Miller and others, he WAS charged
with waylaying and shooting Collins.
The murder was committed more than
five years ago. The case has dragged
1 through the courts since that time,
! the greater number of the witnesses
and defendants have either died or
been killed. Miller, we'll known, was
hanged by mob at Ada.

A Simple Little Graft.

Justice Loden of the Western dis
trict committed Jake Blumberg and
John Lamont, both of New York, on
the charge Of obtaining money under
false representations.
Their game, according to the wit
nesses, was simple and seemingly eff
fective. One would enter a shop and
buy o pack of cigarettes, box of crack
ers or whatever was for sale for the
price of 8 cents He would give a
81 bill in payment, get the change,
discover that he already had nickel,
demand his 81 bill back and, if he
got it, walk out with the change and
the original money in his pocket. Four
witnesses testified that they had
worked this game successfully.-Bal-
