said TO be the most productive in the
world, and at that the oil has been
only partially developed. Down that
away they are rich in agricultural
land, such as will grow almost any
crop. Then, too, they have a fine
quality of bituminous coal, only par
TALLY developed, and lots of it, with
the veins running in thickness from
four to FIVE feet.
The sight of the Pullman special
with oklahoma marked on the out
side acted on the writer's brain like
another call of the wild that sound
ed just as sweetly and as alluring as
in the golden days.
1T put me in a reminiscent mood,
but as our late friend brilliant Billy
Byrne, once stated to col. Fitzsim-
mons and the writer, "reminiscences
are all right, in a way, but you can't
stack them up in a bank as collateral
security for loan Billy peace to
his ashes, was dead right in his state
ment that reminiscence has no
lcharms for the man in the bank, be-
lhind the screen, when the question
,of ssecurity for a loan comes up.
I'd "Someone, once upon time, said
Va lat the plodder lives but day, but

.ians be a grain of truth in that state

ans, will not furnish the grub
stake,
"The name oklahoma on the side
of the car prompted visit to the in
mates, who are a fine, gentlemanly
lot of young men, who are booming
the city of Gushing, which is now
the center of a great oil field.
"In looking backward, lige Bellamy,
the writer is Simply amazed at the
wonderful growth of Oklahoma. If a
fellows foresight was as good as his
hind sight, what a wonderful people
we would be, to be sure, and what a
wonderful country we would all be
living in. for instance, in my time in
Oklahoma, as | view it now, a pur-
chase of any old thing, anywhere in
that section, with ones eyes shut, in
the light of development since then,
would have made the investor rich,
and I am a firm believer that this
same line of thought holds good today.

a certain freight house on west, they

the address on the barrel caught their

shooting. and a prominent attorney
Of Wilburton, after an interview with
the two sons, has issued the following
statement, which is hereby reproduced
for the benefit Of Mr. Rocaett's
friends in this county:
"Mr. Rocket met his death by the
accidental discharge Of his pistol,
which fell from his pocket while he
and his two sons, Louis II. and Frank,
- and "A years old, respectively, were
in his corn crib shucking corn, on
Saturday evening January I, 1916,
about G.3O or O'CLOCK. Shortly be-
fore the accident, he had been in the
kitchen with his wife, who was bak-
ing. preparatory TO an extra dinner
the family were TO have the next day
in celebration Of the New Year. Louis
H.. the Oldest son, a student at the
4. & VI. College at Saltwater, was at
home for the holidays, and the family
had spent a happy Christmas season
Leaving the kitchen, Mr. Rocket
went down to the barn lot, where he
and the hired man put in the night
feed for the horses and the hired
man went up to the residence, while
Mr.. Rocket went into the corn crib
TO shuck corn for the hogs.
"Very soon his sons, Louis II. and
Frank. arrived on horseback, the for
mer having been to Woodford, a near
bv town, and the latter to a neigh
bor's. and having put up their horses,
went into the crib and were helping
their father shuck the corn. The
bows were in front and TO the left
of Mr.. Rocket and Louis was putting
his shucked corn in the tub, where
his father was placing corn. Pretty
soon Mr.. Rocket called out to Frank,
who was shucking to his left some
four or five feet away, Here, Frank,
take this" evidently, and as the son
thought, referring to a large ear OF
select corn which he wanted Frank
TO put in n special pile over at the
side of the crib where Frank was
shucking. In moment the report OF
the pistol was heard either through
Mr.. Rockets raising up to hand the
ear of corn to Frank, or in shifting
his position. or through his foot turn
ing in the loose corn in which he was
either STOPPING or kneeling. or IN
some inexplicable and unaccountable
way which is the nature of accidents,
the pistol fell from his pocket and
was discharged, the bullet striking
him in the head just back and above
the right ear, killing him instantly
II was so dark in the crib that the
sons could not see how 1t occurred
and could not see their father. They
called but he did not speak, and the
Oldest son ran for a light, returning
with the hired man, and together
they carried Mr. Rocket to the house
and one of them went for a doctor
but he was already dead.
"The pistol was one that he had
owned for many years, and he usually
carried it in his inner-breast
pocket of his coat, the hip pocket or
in a scabbarG. The family does not
know where he had the pistol at the
time of the accident"

one day the barrel had been started

it, they looked at each other askance,

Caught Them Alive;
Covey of Ducks

Linn Clardy and Fred Isenman had
enjoyed the picture show last We'd
nesday night, dallied awhile at the
hotel and near midnight on their way
home strolled by the Post Office.
There, huddled in the door, they sur
prised a covey of wild ducks. The
ducks, possibly being tired out, may
have been waiting there to take up
their flight southwark by parcel post.
Be that as it may, they flushed on the
approach of Linn and Fred, who gave
them chase and succeeded in catching
all fve-three hens and two brakes.
Don't smile and assume that this is
a joke, or that these young gentlemen
were indulging in some sort of pipe
dream-it's a fact. The ducks were
all run down by them and caught
alive, and they had them in coop
Thursday morning as indisputable ev-
idence of the strange catch.

Miners Supply
Co. Closed Out

The Miners Supply Co., of Flat Riv-
er, which recently was forced to close
its doors by action of the U. S. Bank
ruptcy Law, was sold yesterday at
forced sale in this city, the purchasers
being the Bank of Flat River and other
creditors Of st. Louis. The stocks
brought $1,000, while the liabilities
we're supposed to be about $4,000,
of which the Bank of Flat River held
$1,000, st. Louis creditors $1,000, and
L. H. Williams held note for $4,000.
1t has developed, however, that the
Williams note was also secured by
the endorsements of five good and re-
sponsible citizens of this city, so that
the proposition in a nutshell, is that
the five endorsers of this city will
probably be the only losers in the
transaction, catching them for about
$500 each, as those have running ac-
