BANK FAILURE AT EL RENO. Stock Exchange Property Placed in the Hands of a Receiver. EL RENO, Okla. Dec. 14 -The Stock Exchange bank was closed here yesterday and Sheriff John M. Cannon placed in charge temporarily as receiver. The liabilities are $68,000, with assets amounting to $52,000. The failure was purely circumstan. tial. The bank was in good shape, but on account of the reports circulated a number of times that robberies had been planned on the banks here as well as in a number of other towns, the officials of the institution reduced the local reserve to a figure they considered safe for any ordinary demands. Yesterday morning the county offi. cials withdrew $8,000 of the county's money, and the run kept up as the rumor spread, until a receiver was asked for. Sheriff Cannon says the bank will pay out dollar for dollar, and that no depositor will be out of his money more than thirty davs.

Outlines of Oklahoma The motto of the Normal school at Edmond is "In Front." Chancellor Snow of the Kansas University, lectured at Kingfisher last night. Thompson will be confirmed. Nagle need not feel uneasy. He will not have to take the office back. The Kingfisher Reformer says that Hanna's prosperity is in spots. Oklahoma is the biggest spot. The territorial teachers' meeting at El Reno will be the largest attended event in the history of the territory. The editor of the Alva Review denies the right of Republicans to admire President McKinley's late message. On second thought, some El Reno people aren't sure whether they want that Choctaw road to built west or not. Never in the history of the territory has any man received such a newspaper boost as Bill Walker is getting for the Osage agency. The government would never attach the Indian Territory to Arkansas. The government wouldn't even let Texas have Greer county. Legislator Tom Doyle was thrown off a train; Legislator Mouriquand has been knocked down. That last legislature was sure a hoodoo. A postmaster in Grant county complains that when the average man misses his paper he wants to rip up a hitching post by the roots and brain him. Frank Edwards of Oklahoma City has been sent to jall for five days for stealing cotton. What could induce a man to steal cotton at its present price? The Oklahoma papers keep right on pumping it to the farmers who are SO shiftless that they will let their fearming implements stand out in the weather. A man named Allen visited Oklahoma City recently with the announcement that he was going to organize a traveling dramatic company there. He worked the merchants for some money and then skipped. The skipping business is being overdone in Oklahoma. In a pioneer country more than in a settled one, the man who is always cheerful and happy under any circumstances is the man who prospers and lives long. The snarler is the shortest lived in a new country. People move to a new country from hope; they are fleeing from old sores. Senator Marum of Woodward recently wrote an important question to a young lady. When he received the answer he was engaged in a trial. He did not open the letter until he had finished the trial for fear it would unnerve him. Three days later he opened the letter. It said "Yes." The Canadian county commissioners have issued the following: "It having been circulated throughout the county that in the failure of the Stock Exchange. bank of El Reno, the county treasurer had lost $60,000 of the county's money, we, the undersigned county commissioners, after an examination of the county treasurer's books desire to state that such report is entirely untrue, and that such failure will not in any manner interfere with the running expenses of the county and that all demands upon the county will be promptly met, and that the county will not lose anything by such failure." At Purcell the Review is printing letters from children to Santa Claus. Here is one: "Dear Santa:-I am not such a little boy now as I used to was, but dear old Santa, I look for Xmas with just as much delight and pleasure as I did when I was no bigger than a minute. I will tell you what I want: The first thing I want is a moustache, I want a light blue one, with a fleur de lis finish and a good box of brilliantine for the same. I want a "Bow-wow," a nice little one that won't bite or chew my playthings up. I want a lot of things that 'don't expect to get, but anything that you may leave will be thankfully received. I will hang my socks up and if the lamp is blown out you can has their queer Arabian

Lee of Kingfisher county, who is said to be short in his accounts, is supposed to be in the Indian country east of Shawnee. Otto Richster of El Reno got back the money he deposited with the Stock Exchange bank the morning of its failure, and the rest of the depositors are kicking. Charley Mitchell of Wellington, Kan., wanted to visit his father living west of El Reno. He stole a horse and buggy in order to do it. Sometimes filial affection can be too rash, but not often. Major Crozier has been made vice president of the Bank of Indian Territory at Guthrie as a recognition of his valuable services in converting Indians to Christianity and the religious use of the individual deposit. Professor Carter, who was murdered near Parker and then his house burned down upon him, will be avenged. With but little evidence the coroner held his companion, Fair, for murder. Now a bloody raor has been found in the ruins. Two years ago Ampie Sater of Garfield, Kansas, then eight years of age, was kicked in the head by a horse. He apparently recovered. The other day he began to feel badly and in a few hours was dead. The doctor says it was congestion of the brain. Oklahoma City Times-Journal: While holding the last term of court at Mangum in Greer county, an Irishman came before Judge Keaton on application for the issuance of final notification papers.. In the course of the examination, the judge asked the statutory question: "Are you, or have you ever been, a member of any anarchist society or association?" The applicant hesitated a moment and then answered: "I-I belong to the Populist party." The court crier did not endeavor to restrain the laughter which followed for the judge and all the court officials joined in heartily. Several days ago a citizen of Oklahoma City, who is in the habit of imbibing too freely and too often, and who is the possessor of a valuable diamond ring, which he is afarid will disappear some time when he is "much the worse," a few days ago put the ring on his toe when he returned to his room so that it would not be stolen from his finger while he slept. In the morning he dressed without thinking of the ring. An hour later he missed it and couldn't remember what had become of it. A day or two later his toe hurt him so that he had to remove his shoe, when he discovered his lost ring. He tried to keep it a secret, but the joke leaked out
