The Union Mission.

The Union mission, on Caddo street
was crowded to an overflowlng ca
racity Sunday. AS we called it, the
little Sunday school mission at the
beginning we now have TO do awsy
with the word little as the number
has increased to about IS scholars.
Mr.. Osborne gave the school a nice
treat last Sunday which was a box
of candy.
We are So proud of all those bright
faced children who are so glad to
have a place where they can go and
learn the way of eternal life. 1t looks
now as if we will be compelled to
have a larger building to accommo-
date those who are already coming.
Mrs Madden gave the school a
splendid talk on the lesson, which
we all enjoyed very much.
want to say have had so many
nice compliments and so much en-
couragement from the best people of
the city it gives me great strength
to bear the burden I have undertaken
for those dear children. ] earnestly
ask the cooperation Of all in this
work.

INSPIRING SCENE
At HIGH SCHOOL
CLAUDE NELSON, oKlAHoMA'S
CHAMPION ATHLETE, SENT ~
CHICAGO TO COMPETE.

The pupils of the high school THIS
morning were made happy over the
announcement that Ardmore citizens
had made it possible for Claud Nell
son to attend the interstate track
meet at Chicago. The announcement
was made by Superintendent Richards
and prolonged cheers greeted the an
nouncement. Claud Nelson was called
TO the platform and addressed his fel-
low pupils. He said he had looked
over the Chicago records and had
found that they would be har dto beat,
however, he goes with full confidence
that he will win some Of the honors'
He spoke feelingly of the absence or
his team with him and said he would
miss that cheering old yell lie had
heard on the Oklahoma fields OF
"Chickasaw, Choctaw. Creek, Ard
more High School Can't Be Beat"
He will be the sole representative at
Chicago from Ardmore. Young Nell
son, however, has won ON every track
in Oklahoma, he has been before the
spot light frequently enough to wear
away the stage fright and accompa-
nying him will be that indomitable
spirit which has been inculcated into
him from his attendance at Ardmore
high school and he feels that he will
be al his best. His record is better
than the Chicago record where all tue
states from the Hudson river to the
Rocky mountains are represented.
Following Nelson's talk, Freeman
Gait passed to the stage and led in
the class yells. = The old inspiring
yell of CRickasaw, etc. was changed
to "Ardmore Nelson Can't Be Beat"
and the class put ginger a-plenty into
it aslkhey gave Nelson his last cheer

him as tie man who most often visits
the schools and who takes the great
est pride in their triumphs. Mr.. Hcf'
ner was so interested in the meeting
this morning that he left home with
out his cane, which he has carried

heved in the high school, he believed
in Nelson and he felt sure victory
would perch upon his banner.

Central City.
There is a disease among the bees
around Central City and in other parts
Of Linn county that will clean out the
bees entirely in short time if let go.
The assistant state bee inspector OF
Iowa was here last week, looking over
the bees in this vicinity and assisting
what he could in suppressing the dis
ease. The name Of the disease is the
American foul brood. 1t does not af-
feet the honey in any way and the bees
appear healthy, but it effects the brood
or larvae which die. and as bee only
lives about forty days in the honey
season, the swarms are soon weakened
and die.

Last Friday occurred an accident
about five miles from town on the
Pomeroy road. in which it seems that
a miracle prevented some one from
being killed outright. Some friends
of Mr.. and Mrs. Hartung from Rock
well City were coming over to the
fair. Mr.. Sam Cooper was driving
when suddenly the car began to skid
and turned up side down in the middle
of the road. The occupants Of the car
were. Mrs. Fillenworth. Mrs. Daugh-
erty, Mr.. j. Stewart, Mr.. Cooper and
the driver. All were badly shaken up
and unnerved but the top seemed to
save them from great injury, except
the driver, the steering wheel broke
and striking him in the face pinned
him down. A cut caused by the wheel
was sewed up by DR.. Dover after they
reached town and they were all able
to go home on the o'clock train.

The territory on all sides OF US is
infested with hog cholera or some
hog disease that is invariably fatal.
We know OF several instances where
whole droHes Of swine have been
wiped out and nearly everybody who
has hog that weighs over fifty
pounds, is marketing 1t. II the dis
ease is cholera, 1t is a new variety,
and the symptoms are different in
many respects. Some Of the hogs
linger for days while others die
within a few hours after coming down
with it. The way the situation now
looks, there will not be hog in this
territory in thirty days more. 1t Is
surely hard luck for our farmer
friends. and the festive swine Will
cease to lift mortgages from east EN-
met farms for year or so. The ad-
vent OF this disease into Emmet coun-
ty, means loss Of not less than $780,

in the place prevented him carrying
out his attentions. While in the sa-
loon he got into an argument with Joe
Shaba living on the Mt Vernon road.
Delmire had told some hair raising ex-
periences and even stated that he had
a pal and they would rob some places
before night. He exhibited one OF the
