Harry Kurrie brought down a story In odor comparison from Chicago Saturday that It won’t hurt to print in a newspaper. Two skunks were frirking about the roadside on a sunny summer day, enjoying the freedom of the country and rejoicing in the belief that they were supreme as producers of foul scents. All of a sudden an automobile 'dashed by, letting out a foul odor of unburned gasoline. Both skunks held their noses, and one asked the other, “What in the world was that?” “I don’t know,” replied* the other skunk, releasing his nostrils and sniffing the air, “but whatever it is, we want it.” Persons who Lave smelled skunks and have never smelled the odor eminating from the rear of an automobile, where the flow of gasoline is too great for the burner, will now 'have some ider what to expect if they ever encounter the latter.

Vincent Eisele was kicked by a horse Saturday evening and very severely bruised and his right arm badly lacerated and the bone probably Injured to some extent. He had fed the horses and was walking through the stall. A mare twenty years old or more was eating and had her head in the,manger. She heatd bis footstep and Wcke'i, striking him in the stomach a»d knocking him down. He was struck several times before he could get away and he fell unconscious at tbe door of the barn.

J. Frank Warren arrived yesterday from Lafayette where he and Mrs. Warren have been visiting. He left today for Hartford, Connecticut, on a buslnss trip, and will stop at Philadelphia on business also. Mr. Werren says that He was never in serious danger of being elected mayor of Ok'ahoma City, but he gave the democrats the scare of their lives, that is, the ring democrats, the ones who cpntrol Oklahoma City. He had on his side many of the best democratic citizens of the city, the class that believe in law enforcement. There is a law in vogue in Oklahoma that presumes to grant suffrage only to those sufficiently qualified to use it intelligently. Like similar laws in southern states it is framed to keep the colored people from voting and it was worked in this election to the disfranchisement of a thousand colored voters, enough to have elected Mr. Warren mayor. Mrs. Warren will come here the last of the week to visit her sister, Mrs. B. L. dark.
