AN OKLAHOMA DINNER. I
Pie and Other Circumstances
That Made the Meal
Memorable.
“The best dinner I ever had,”
said a New York club man, “was
in Oklahoma, and it cost me about
' SB. The dinner itself cost me but
tw<>, but I paid $5 to get to it, and
the tips cost me sl, as I remem
; ber.
I was in the town of El Reno on
i the eve of the second opening of
’ j the Indian lands in that section.
The town was full of campers and
! speculators. The few people in
i the place who had got their con
sent to have homes there felt un
> der no obligations to entertain
’ strangers, and the landlord of the
■ j hotel was the most indifferent and
j unaccommodating wretch I ever
i saw. I lost my grip the first day
i I was m the house and when I
made the sort of complaint that a
man would naturally make under
j the circumstances, ho reckoned I
I would be able to make a better
- run without it. I told him I was
I not there for that purpose. He
replied that ho did not know why
’ a man in that country wanted any
! baggage. And this struck me as
being so nearly correct that I never
| alluded to the subject again. In
order that I may further impress
you with the meanness of the man
I I will say that on one occasion I
j went to the wash room of the house
I for the purpose of indulging in a
I little exercise which is in obedi
i ence to a Testament command, and
| found the tank empty. There was
lno porter and no bell boy. I
waited on the clerk, who was en
gaged with a half-bred in a game
of.cards. In reply to my request
I for water, ho referred me to the
landlord, who was sitting in his
shirt sleeves on the porch, as they ‘
call it down there. I made known
to him my wants, and he told me
; there was a barrel of water in the
I cellar, and that I could take the
I bucket and help myself. He added
[ that I must use the water spar
| ingly, as he had to pay for it, and
it came from a spring obout
away. He further said
that no bathing was allowed, and
that only one course of water was
permitted, tasked him if I might
have a little extra to use in con
nection with my tooth brush. This
request brought down upon me all
of his contempt, and I waived
that.
I have been on the plains when'
there was not a house between sun
rise and sunset, and not a feather
in sight. But hunger in such a
case can be philosophized with.
To suffer hunger, however, in a
town of your own country, and
| among your own people, is one of
I the pangs 1 never want to feel
j again. I had suffered this sort of
feeling for four days. There was
no fruit in the town. The canned
goods of the cheapest make were
; being sold at fabulous prices to
: Indians, who regarded them as i
i luxuries. Besides, I already felt
I the symptoms of a sickening dys
i pepsin, and did not care to increase
| them.
In my hungered condition I met
■an officer of the regular army
; from the command at Fort Reno,
j six miles distant, and, knowing
i that the average army officer is a
gentleman, I introduced myself
! and begged him to direct me to
some place where I could reduce
my famishing condition. He in- i
vited me to the fort to mess with I
him, but I told him I could not
accept, although I was distressed .
to decline.
He said if I insisted on spending ’
■ my money he would tell me where;
I could get a fairly good meal, but
it was nine miles away. The qual
ification he put forth obliterated
distance. I asked him to be brief.
I was directed to the Indian agen
cy. and learned the name of a man
there who served a fairly good ■
meal to the officer in charge of the
agency and to the Indian store
keepers. 1 lost no time in apply
ing for livery—there was such a
thing as livery in the benighted
town. It was a benighted town
then; I do not know what it is
i now. The liveryman said he had'
! but one rig, and that the team was i
■ pretty well tired out; and besides
he would not let it go for one pas
senger. I asked him how many
the rig would accommodate. He
said that on a pinch it would ’
j hold four and the driver, if there |
i was no big man in the party ; and i
I he would send us over to the agen
cy for S2O. I told him to hold
the rig subject to my order, and
returned to town, where I found
two commercial drummers and
one newspaper correspondent. • I
held out to my famishing acquain
tances the alluring prospect of a
fair meal, and to my delight they
fell in with the plan to capture
it.
The driver was a cheerful sort
of chap, who told us of a stream
. I that we must cross which had a
quicksand bottom, and unless a
man knowed where he was driving
■ the whole team was liable to sink
.jin the sands and disappear for
ever. He related a number of
. cases of that kind in corroboration
, of his statement. But wo urged
, him on, and entertained him with
■ old stories and some very bad
. singing. I had reserved my worst
t story until we reached the banks
. of the uncertain stream, and he
was so deeply interested in my
jarn that he forded the creek be
fore he was aware of it.
He drove us to the little cottage
where lived the man who put out
fairly good meals. It was Sun
day. Several highly painted
bucks lounged about the stoop
One, I was told afterward, was a
graduate of a Pennsylvania Indian
school and had been sent back
among his people to bring them
up to a higher civilization. Ho
was very drunk the day I saw him,
| and his wardrobe consisted of a
■ blanket and a nether garment
worn by Indians.
The landlord came out and said
it was late for dinner. His wife
was the cook, and, as it was Sun
day, she did not like to do any ex
tra work, especially as she was
wanting to go to a ghost dance
that evening, and it was to take
place at some distance. As I was
the hungriest man in the crowd, I
was selected as spokesman, and I
was worked up to the pitch of elo
quence. His wife came out. and I
appealed to her. She consented
when I told her that the monetary
consideration was a small part of
the situation. We were invited in
and the man and his wife absented
themselves to prepare the fairly
good meal. In an hour we were
invited to the table. The linen
was immaculate. Wo had-soup,
two courses of meat, vegetables,
hot bread, delicious coffee and pie ’
Home-made pie! I don’t know
what kind of pie it was. never
did know and I never askea. But
pie in Oklahoma was to us as I
imagine the heavenly manna was
to the hungry children of Israel
when they were on a forced
march. The newspaper correspon
ds? t took more than his share, and
as we remonstrated the landlord
said they had another one. If his
wife had said that I would have
embraced her. What a feast that
was! I have attended a great I
many banquets in New York, but
I never enjoyed one as I did that
dinner.
When it was finished we took
the landlord out and asked him tc.
i name his price. He returned and
| consulted with his wife. When he
appeared to us again he said in an i
apologetic manner that as it was ■
'Sunday, and as Mary had lost her
chance of seeing the ghost dance
to accommodate us, he would have
to charge us about $2 a head. He i
might as well have had $5.
I said the dinner cost me SB. It
cost me mo-e in the long run.
When I returned to civilization I
sent Mary a dress pattern and a
■ fashion book, for I imagined she
would like to know the latest
style. I shan't tell you what the
diess pattern cost. That's between
my wife and me. But I will bet
it was the finest dress that was
’ ever seen in Oklahoma. And there
is the best room in my house on
, Fifth avenue for Mary and her
• husband if they ever come to New ’
York, and a box at the theater
every night, and a sail on my
yacht. I wish I had Mary’s
chances of getting to heaven. Talk
about—say, what was it Byron
wrote?
I “In the desert a fountain is springing,
In the wild waste there still is a tree.
And a bird in the solitude singing—
I forgot the other line. But
that's Mary of the Indian agency
in Oklahoma.”—New York Sun.
The Darlington, Wis , Journal
says editorially of a popular pat
ent medicine: “We know from
experience that Chamberlain’s
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem
edy is all that is claimed for it, as
on two occasions it stopped excru
ciating pains and possibly saved
us from an untimely grave. We
would not rest easy over night
without it in the house.” This
remedy undoubtedly saves more
pain and suffering than any other
medicine in the world. Every
family should keep it in the house
for it is sure to be needed sooner
or later. For sale by H. H. Ar

Apology.
A lukewarm apology is more in
sulting than the insult. A hand
some apology is the handsomest
thing in the world. And the man
liest and the womanliest. An a
pology, like chivalry, is sexless.
Perhaps because it is a natural vir
tue of women it sits manlier upon
mon than upon women. A delicate
apology brings into play all the
virtues necessary to a perfect hu
manity. The proudest are general
ly those who can bend the lowest.
It is not pride; it is a stupid van
ity and an abnormal self-love
which prevents a man or woman
from apologizing. It requires a
native humility, of which only
great souls are capable. It requires
generosity to be willing to humble
yourself. It takes faith in human
ity that your apology will be ac
cepted. You must have a sense of
justice to believe you owe it. It
requires sincerity to make it sound
honest, and tact to do it at the
right time. It requires patience
to stick to it until the wound has
ceased to bleed, and the best, high
est, truest type of love to make
you want to de it.

UNDER DIFFICULTIES.
But the Next Time He Has it to
Do He Will Not Patron
ize a Restaurant.
A west side young man some
time ago fell deeply in love with
the attractive young typewriter
employed in the office where he
performed the duties of assistant
bookkeeper at a weekly salary of
sls, which he deemed amply suf
ficient for a man of his simple
tastes till the piquant face of the
new typewriter filled his head
with thoughts of a home in which
she should be the sunshine of his
life.
Such a home as he fondly pic
tured was not half good enough
for her he knew could not be main
tained on his meager salary, and
so he applied himself diligently to
master all the details of the de
partment in which he worked,
with an eye to the increase in his
remuneration which he promised
himself would be the signal to ask
the all important question which
he felt in his innermost heart was
to make him the happiest man in
nil creation or plunge him forever
into the Stygian sea of despair and
hopelessness.
Months wore away and at last
hie patience was rewarded. One
noon the senior member of the
firm came up to him as he sat gaz
ing longingly at the pretty type
wri tist, to whom it may be ex
plained, he had not spoken his
great heart secret because of his
pecuniary circumstances, and sim
ply announced : “Mr. Smiih, Mon
day you will assume the duties of
head bookkeeper, with the in
crease oi salary the promotion de
mands.”
Poor, love-sick Smith went into
a silent ecstacy of transport as the
full meaning of his employer’s
words dawned upon him. It meant
he was now free in all honor to
speak.
“By jove,” he exclaimed, “I’ll
ask Dolly right now to marry me;
there she goes out to lunch; I’ll
catch her at the restaurant.”
The impatient yet jubilant
young man hastened after her, in
tent on his mission and repeating
over ond over the plea he had re
hearsed so many times in antici-
pation of the event. Hurrying in
to the place where they were wont
> to get their midday lunch he was
! happily successful in securing a
’ seat alone at her table. He was
, extremely happy; hut his troubles
. alas, were about to take their in
i nings.
“Dolly,” ho began, “I love
; you. You may have guessed it
’ 'ong before from from my tell
tale eyes and I want you to be
• my •”
' “Huckleberry,” yelled a waiter
at his side.”
“Wife,” the young man finished,
unheeding the interruption. “Ever
since that never-to-be-forgotten
day when you passed my desk I
have loved you withan all-devour
ing passion that seemed almost
uncontrollable. Night after night
as I lay on my pillow my heart
i has whispered to me: “Nothing
, will ever still this longing unrest
. but—”
“Two ice creams,” interpolated
waiter No. 6,
“But union with you,” finished
the now flustered wooer. “I have
been promoted and can now buy”—
“Bean soup for two,” ordered a
low-browed waiter —“and surnish,
in time, that little house you have
so often admired,” ended Smith,
with an angry look at every waiter
in range. “Life wi l ! be a ”
“puddin’ fer two!” again inter
rupted a voice—“heaven on earth,’’
he continued as he grated his teeth 1
and picked up the catsup bottle
he had knocked down on the floor I
in the nervousness of his bewilder- ■
ment. Resolved to finish the
speech he had worked and worried i
over so many weeks he started in |
j afresh. “In that greatest of all t
mysteries men call —” “Hash !” a
waiter yelled.
“Dolly, will you” excuse me only j
for a moment while I commit half
a dozen murders in the first de- I
gree?” the now thoroughly aroused |
and angry pleader abruptly asked j
I
I
and there was dynamite in his
voice and steel in his eye as he
said it.
“Never mind, H-H-Hc-rby,”
Dolly said softly, “come up to
night and—and—l think those
waiters are just horrid. You and
I won’t come here again, will we?”
Herby said they wouldn’t and as
they left, after he had paid both
check, a commanding voice came
floating after them : “Cantaloupe
—cantaloupe.”
While the words were yet ring
ing in their ears he looked sadly
down at her, but she only mur
mured: “We won’t have to dear

The Women Who Are With Us.
No man in his sober thought
can fail to sympathize with the
consecrated labors that have be
come a part of the life of those
good women who have been repre
senting the work of the Woman’s
Christian Temperance Union in
our city the past few days.
Men may have their views of
public policy; may resent encroach
ments upon their individual inter
ests; may give way to the demands
of political influence ; may from
various sources, take grounds to
the opposite of the efforts of ex
treme temperance innovations;
but the law of perseverance and
faith displayed by these women is
building a gradual wall against the
debauchery of intoxicants that is
more palpable than any reform
that has ever exercised the co-oper
ation of the human race.
Today there is not a state in the
Union, however environed in its
population, thot is not giving stu
dy and enactment of legislation to
some form of repression. There is
not a church organization out
what is discussing plans of temper
ance. There is not an old-stand
ing secret order, whose base is upon
moral grounds, that is not in some
way taking measures to enforce so
briety upon its membership, while
social functions are, everywhere,
gradually tempering the banquet
to quieter methods of the “flowing
bowl.”
Thus are events casting their
shadows before, and more than
ever strengthening the enthusiasm
to this heart-devoted task of these
women.
It is therefore, not so much in
the numbers that represent this
convention as the numbers repre
sented in sympathy that we may
calculate the importance of this
meeting.
There is not in all the world a
woman whose heart has been
bruised by the intemperate use of
alcoholic beverages by husband,
father, or son, that is not with
them in silent prayer.
And as the sentimei. t has grown
through the torture of grief, so
have men come to give thought of
the evil, and less inclined to tem
porize with the men who excessive
ly indulge.
And the outcome of it. What
shall it be? The coming together
of our statesmen in terms of rea-
; son, and the fixing of the commer
< cial status of alcoholics to the
. detriment of public welfare. It
' will not be just as these good wo
i meu would have it, perhaps, and
’ still less just what the traffic of it
j would want.
At the same time the Evening
j Advertirer joins with these good
! women in the hope of that solution
whicn shall best subserve our civ-
■ ilization. —Brunswick Advertiser.
