OIL TOWN
Is SWEPT BY FLAMES
Writ Practically Wiped Off of the
Map and 500 People Are Left
Homeless. - Property Loss
MAY REACH $15O,OOO

Fire, which started at 1880 o'clock
Monday morning in the Oil Exchange
Cafe at Writ, a town in the Heald-
ton oil field, near Ardmore, destroy
ed every building on the north side
of the street from the bridge east of
town to the district which burned
last Friday night, when thirteen
roOming and boarding houses were
destroyed. The damage is estimated
nt from $4,000 to 800, 900, and full
ly 500 people are homeless.
In all fully forty buildings were
burned, most business houses and
valuable stocks of merchandise were
destroyed. OF all the structures that
were burned it is said that more than
four or five were insured. Many OF
the buildings contained rOoming or
boarding houses on the second floors,
and this accounts for the large num-
Der rendered homeless. The build
ings were all of wood. and the high
wind caused them to burn fiercely.
The telephone exchange was one
of the first buildings destroyed and
communication with the outside was
cut off for several hours. To prevent
thefts and other depredations Sheriff
Garrett mustered in a number of dep
uties and these are guarding the
rescued. belongings of the merchants
and others. The proximity of Ard
more, Ringing, and Wilson to the
oil fields gave many of the homeless
an opportunity to get shelter for the
night Homes in the field were also
thrown open. The majority of those
rendered homeless are men employed
in the fields. The officials have the
situation well in hand, and the work
of rebuilding will commence at an
early day, and in all probability with
better structures than those which
were consumed by the flames.

The following written statement
was voluntarily handed the Tanlac
man recently by Rev. j. A. Baldridge,
who is so well known in Oklahoma
that he needs no introduction:
"Tanlac is good remedial agent.
1t does not work miracles, but does
cleanse the system and give tone to
the organs and enables them to per-
form their natural functions. 1t pro-
notes appetite, assists digestion, } and
assimilation, and thus imparts new
zest and vigor to both body and mind.
1t gives nature a fair chance. Tanlac
is surely worthy of a fair trial. and
especially for ailments of long stand
ing l write from personal exper-
ience." (Signed) ~. A. Baldridge.

"Rev. Baldridge is only one Of

THE IMMENSELY OF OUR CROPS

One way to grasp the meaning Of
the crop figures this year is to trans
late them into other terms than bu-
shells, says the Youths Companion.
For example, our 1.000,0O0,000 bu-
shells of wheat is enough for our own
use and 100000 carloads to sell
abroad-8000 trans of so frenght
cars each, and 1 900 bushels in every
car. Counting only what goes to the
market, all the crops combined make
$50, 100000 tons of freight for the
railways to handle-Aenough to fill o
freight train that would reach twice
around the world.
