OIL AND CAKE FROM PEANUTS.
Cotton Oil Mill at Durant Will Try to
Find Market for Crop.

Durant, Okla. Oct. 30.-The local
cotton oil company is preparing to
experiment with peanuts in making
oil and oil cake, and is offering to
buy all the peanuts in Bryan county
in amounts from one bushel to 100
tons. This Is a departure for the
local mill, and as yet they have not
found a market for the products they
will make from the peanuts.
Large acreages have been planted
to peanuts in Bryan county for sew
eral years, this being the year of
heaviest yield. The trouble has al
ways been in finding a market.
Those farmers that did not have a
large enough number Of hogs to feed
their crops to have seen them waste
and rot.

derful change is billed to take place in
Ardmore. The destroyed district will
be entirely rebuilt by that time, and
the old buildings destroyed will be
suppanted by modern structures that
will alter entirely the appearance of
that section of the city. A new hotel
on lower Main street, is practically
assured, and the entire district east
of the tracks will be rebuilt with de-
sirable business property of a sub
stantial nature, the new Pennington
building it is reported will cover the
entire block between the Rock Island
tracks and Caddo street, and the Har-
dy building will be replaced by a
modern structure.
All that portion of the block be-
tween the Wilmington hotel and Mill
street will be rebuilt and will be re-
occupied for the most part by former
tenants. Property owners are optimis-
tic over the future of the city, and
there is a general revival in business
activity that speaks well for the spirit
that has prevailed since the great

ALLEGED DIPS
WERE HELD FOR
COUNTY COURT
TWO SUSPECTS PICKED UP BY
THE POLICE THE SUNDAY AF-
TER THE EXPLOSION, WE'RE
HELD BY JUDGE CHAMPION.

Carlton and Mattheson, the two al
legged pickpOckets who were arrested
at the union depot the Sunday follow
ing the explosion were given pre-
liminary hearing before Judge Cham
pion Friday afternoon and bound over
to the district court in the sum of
$4,000 each.
T. j. Goggins, chief of detectives of
the Santa Fe system, was a witness
in the case and produced pictures and
files of the alleged records of these
two men, that went long way toward
convincing the court that they were
in a manner guilty of the crime
charged and likewise that they had a
shady past, for that reason and the
testimony introduced by the state
they were bound over. After the de-
cision of the court one of the accused
was rather disposed to start something
with Mr.. Goggins, but he was inform
ed that if any bad breaks were at
tempted in the court, his career would
come to a sudden close. They will
probably get into communication with
some of their friends and put up a
bond, after which they will probably
beat it.

PASTOR MAY LEAVE THIS
CITY FOR OTHER FIELDS

DR. NJ L. Butler, pastor OF the
Broadway Methodist church. will
preach today in the city for the last
time prior to the annual meeting OF
the conference, and there is prob
ability that he will not be sent back
here. In his work here he has been
aggressive and has worked along
broad lines that has made him use
full to the city as well as to his
church. He is very popular with
all classes Of people and the church
has enjoyed a wonderful growth dur
ing his pastorate. There have been
80 additions to the church during the
past year. In case he is not returned
here, there will be heard a general
expression Of regret both in the
church and out of it.

the United States, because of this
country's disputes with both Germany

official information from Germany is
also to the effect that the United

American Ambassador Gerards long

by many officials here to have launch

Workmen engaged in repairing q
building on the south side OF Main
street yesterday found the skeleton OF
an infant between the floor Of the
second story and the ceiling beneath.
The discovery was made over the Joe
F. Williams grocery store. 1t had the
appearance of having been there for
a long time. While the bones were
well developed, it is the opinion of
that the child had never
reached maturity. When the body Of
the child was placed there and by
there is not the slightest idea.

known. That it was done a long time

WORK ON NEW
HOTEL T0START
IMMEDIATELY
CAPTAIN WHlTTlNGToN STATED
YESTERDAY THAT THE RAIL
ROAD COMPANY WE'RE READY
TO TALK SETTLEMENT.

Unless something unforeseen inter.
feres, work of demolishing the old
Wilmington hotel will begin some day
this week, and the site made ready for
the new seven-story hotel in contem-
plation.
Capt. Wilmington stated yesterday
that the railroad officials had agreed
to give him an audience Monday and
he is looking for a speedy settlement.
As soon as this is accomplished he
will begin work.
The picture of the proposed hotel
on display at the First National Bank
is creating favorable comment and
would be an ornament to the lower
Main street district. The proposed ho-
tel would be of $50 rooms, all with
the most modern appliances and CON
veniences. The approximate cost of this
structure with its furnishings will be
100000.
Beside the Wilmington there are
several hotel rumors floating about
but whether they will develop into
tangible remains to be seen
1t has been reported that a stock COM
pany of prominent oil operators will
be organized and erect a ten-story
building on the corner of Main and
c street, where the old skating rink
formerly stood. The latter rumOr has
gained considerable headway within
the past few days and it is evident
that those who are promoting it, are
anxious to have a modern, up-to-date
hotel for the city if they have to build
Il themselves. However this remains
IN the future, and only time will de-
'elop what will be actually done in
he way of building a modern hotel,

Toy Duck Of Cardboard.

to work by. and always near at hand
are two shining fairy lamps-your
eyes. Here are some things that the
Ten Fairies can make. Get some
cardboard boxes of different sizes;
these can be turned into toys,-birds,
dogs. cats or even wild animals. Now
find some thin cardboard, a box Of
colored crayons, and a pair of sharp
scissors. With your pencil draw a
curve on each side Of the cardboard
box rim, cut the box rim curved like
the rockers Of a chair; the two ends
of the box must be curved of evenly
from corner to corner.
II you wish to make bird. just
draw a birds head on the thin card
board. Fairy lamps and fingers will
help you. The illustrations show
how q cock and a duck can be made
with their feet drawn en- the sides
Of the box. Have the birds head
large enough to fit the box body.
Color the head. make the bill yellow,
and the eyes black. The feathers Of
the cock are reddish brown; there
are several colors you might choose
for the duck. When you are max
ing bird with tail, draw the tail
on the cardboard, color it and cut it
out. Heads and tails should be
colored on both sides. On the top
of the box, near the end. cut slit.
Insert the birds head into the slit
II he is a tailed" bird, make a slit
at the other end of the box, too, for
the tall Isn't this magic work? Half
cardboard box turned into a bird!
Make the box the same color as
tho feathers and the birds neck. Color
the legs and feet orange. Then put
the toy on the floor and see how nice
ly 1t will rock.
Dogs, cats. rabbits and many other
four-footed friends can be made by
Fairy Fingers. If you are not sure
how to draw heads or tails the Fairy
Lamps can peep into picture books.
Suppose these animals get tired OF
rocking, and want to take a walk,
