Sympathy for Ardmore.

The appalling disaster at Ardmore
has aroused the sympathy of the na-
tion. Seldom has such a catastro.
phe befallen a city. While bowed in
sorrow at the horror OF it all, the
citizens are not in despair. They
are still filled with determination, and
will lose no time in repairing the
damage wrought, so far as they may,
The lives snuffed out without a sec
ond of warning cannot be restored,
and in some cases the owners of
property destroyed may be brought
face to face with bankruptcy as re-
suit of their losses, but through it all
the people are hanging together and
showing most admirable spirit. In
their efforts they deserve all the
aid the outside world can give them.

The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1915-10-03

The Ardmoreite has done good
work, from a newspaper standpoint,
in handling the news of the recent
disaster. Although badly handicapped
by reason of having suffered severely
itself, and deluged by flood of tele-
grams and phone calls from the out
side, out of all the confusion has
come well written accounts of the
tragedy. Although The Ardmoreite
was not put completely out Of com
mission, it will feel the effects of the
disaster for long time to come in
the loss of business it would have
received had things moved along with
out interruption. However, the paper
will tide over the crisis and continue
to give its readers the same excellent
service that has characterized it n
times past.-Ada News.

sATTELL MoReANs SOLD
Stallion Valued at $4,000 Purchased
for $500.

Middlebury, April 2O.-The famous
stud of Morgan horses owned by the
late Joseph Battell was broken up to-
day under the auctioneers hammer
and the finest specimens in the fam
Gus breeding stables went for song,
Scotland, superb stallion, for which
Mr.. Battell refused $1,000, valuing the
animal at $4,000 going to c. G.
Brown of Portland, Me-, for $500
Breeders and fanciers of fine
horses were present from several
states and there was a large atten-
dance of farmers and breeders from
this section and from other parts OF
the state. Tight money and the gen
eral business depression is ascribed
for the ridiculously low figures at
which several of the animals sold.
Though the bidding started we'll on
several animals it is conceded among
horsemen that the sale netted far
less than the stud was actually worth
from breeders standpoint. a rep
resentatiye of c. c. Stillman of New
York, wellknown as a member of the
Vermont Morgan Horse club, was
present but made no bids
DR.. w. r. Grain of Rutland bought
Highland Lad for $3.50. This animal
is one of the finest matinee perform
ers in the Battell stables.
w. S. Todd OF New York purchas-
ed Victory at 1915, Marguerite, $3.50;
Viola. $155; Roxie Gates, $3.50; Beau
ty, $500, and Morgan General at $105.
The prices paid for these mares were
but a fraction of what Mr. Battell
held the animals at
c. a Stone of Boston bought Mo
ton. Jr at 1855; Green Mountain,
$405; Nocturne. $500. and the famous
stallion, Robert Bruce for $3.50. The
bding started keen on Bruce.
The Battell estate bid in Vermont
at $3.50; Ben Lomond, $3.50; Skylight,
$3.50.
