Consul Canada at Vera Cruz report
ed today that the Americans are ad-
yancing to take the entire city Of
Vera Cruz, which is under the guns
of the fleet. The American fleets
guns began shelling the southern part
of Vera Cruz this morning, but Cana
da said he expected the firing to
cease within an hour.
The landing forces met quite gen
Grad firing from "snipers" on the
house tops.
Three thousand Americans have
been landed.
Canada estimated today that one
hundred and fifty MeXicans had been
killed and wounded as a result of last
nights fighting. Admiral Fletcher is
still requesting the Mexican author
tiles to cooperate in restoring order,
promising to allow them to continue
their municipal government, the
Americans merely holding the Gus
toms house and patrolling the streets.

There is a lad in a certain Scot
tish town who is noted for his
shrewdness. The other day he was
sent by his father to a neighbor-
ing public house with the following
order:
please send to our house 10
dozen of ale"
Now it so happened that one OF
the publcans faults is a propen-
sity to poke his nose into othe,
peoples business, and SO, when he
had read the order, he could not
help calculating:
"Guid gracious, laddie, and what
ever is yer fether gaun tae dae wi
sac muckle ale?"
For a moment Johnnie was puz-
zled, knowing that his father would
not, like him to exactly tell the
truth. Then an idea occurred to
him, and he quietly replied:

COMMERCIAL CLUB

MUST NAME SUCCESSOR TO PRES
IDENT y. E. FOSTER, RESIGNED
TODAY.

The regular meeting of the CONNER
cial club will be held at the club
rooms next Thursday night, at which
time a successor to Il. E. Foster, re-
signed as president, will be chosen by
the board of directors.
One prominent worker in the Com.
mercial club and a man who never
misses a meeting, stated this morn
ing that he was amused at the re-
marks of some of the speakers at the
meeting at the opera house last night,
urging that the citizens should meet
at least once a month and confer over
business matters when he knew it to
be a certain fact that they had not
attended a meeting of the commercial
club. regular or otherwise in the past
two years. This man stated that there
had been opportunity Of attending a
meeting Of the Commercial club twice
a month, extended to every man in
the city and he hoped that to see them
out in the future now that a new
spirit had seemed to have arrived in
the city.

IMPROVED ORDER
Of RED MEN
GREAT COUNCIL OF THE STATE
IN ANNUAL SESSION AT COAL
GATE.

Henry Kimbel ehas returned ffoM
Coalgate, where he attended the
Great Council of Oklahoma at the
annual session of the Improved Or
der of Red Men. He reports a very
harmonious session and a larger
attendance than at any previous
state council meeting. The order,
he says is growing over the reser-
walton which is eXemplified by the
fact that the state is entitled to
two representative now, where here
tofore only one was the limit, Mr..
Kembel said that the report of the
great chief of records, Mr.. Hodgens
of Poteau, was indeed in incentive
for the good of the order, and re-
suited in his unanimous reelection
and also his election as great rep
resentative to the great council OF
the United States. The officers elect
from a memory standpoint for the
ensuing year, are as follows;
DR.. Plumlee, Poteau, great sachem.
John OBrien, Lehigh, great senior
sycamore.
William Thompson, Coalgate, great
Junior sycamore.
John Brown, Coalgate, great pro-
phet.
w. B. Hodgens, great chief of
records, reelected.
w. B. McCan, Coalgate, great
keeper of wampum.
-Deming of ,Muskogee was
elected as great representative to
the council of the United States
for two years, and w. B. Hodgens,
the great chief of records, was
elected as great representative for
one year.
McAlester was chosen as the next
place of meeting.
Past Grand Incohonee Bird of To-
peka, Kansas, was present and add
ed to the exultant interest of the
order with his wisdom in regard
to the order of Redmanshlp.
In a summary Mr.. Kimbel said
the meeting was a success and re-
flected credit on the Red Men in
Coalgate and the people of that
town.

Vera Cruz, Mexico, April 22,-On-

uaues among the Americans. The
Mexican loss is supposed to have
been much larger than the Ameri-

twenty wounded. OF the Americans
wounded last night, the condition
of four is considered to be worse.
This morning the bodies of the
Mexican dead still lay in the streets
