"He That Covercth Up His Sins Shall Not Prosper." Hev. Mr. Wright, the Indian evange list, preached another powerful ser mon last night at tho court house. The building was comfortably filled with people, anxious to hear the good man expound tho gospel of God. Mr. Wright sang a solo before bo commenced his service which was a treat to every one who heard him. Ho then Kelcctod as his subject for the I liVitflllll? "Hit lll.1t CIIVIM'lllll mi his sins shnll not prosper, but ho that con fosseth them shall receive mercy.' The good mnn handled his subject well, proving by the bible that It was correct. He took up n groat many characters In tho bible, showed where they had tried to cover up their sins and how In the end they had redilund ed against thorn. His Illustrations were all taken from the bible and the man ner In which he explained them wns interesting nml tho impression he made upon the audience was very per ceptlble. Thore are a groat many slnnors In Ardmore who nro trying to covor up their slim today, but Gou Ih watching them, and unloss they chnnge thel schedule, or take another route, when thoy arrive ut that golden gate and knock, thoy will And that the "door has been closed against them."

EXCESSIVE SANTA FE RATES Conipel Stock to Be Driven to Gaines ville to Ship Over Other Routes, That exresslves rates on the Santa Fe exists Is apparent In the fart that this morning J. K. Howies, a well known stock dealer, started overland with a huncb of mnles for Galneavltlt- from which point he will ship them. three car loads, over the M.. K. & T. railroad to a place In Texas named Waskom. near the I-oulilana tine. The bunch of mules. Mr. Howies Informed us. are of a kind too large for war yiules. and fit property far plantation work, hence his obfect In taking them Into the Loulslnna market. When asked why he did not ship trm Ardmore, he replied the exces five rates were too much for blm Said he. I have beon shipping great quantities of stock ovor tho Santa Fe In tho past three years but I can not afford to do so any longer. Those peo ple nsk me $98.00 for n car from Aril more to Waskom, Texas. I get a car over the M., K. & T. from Galno&vtlle to waskom lor tu. jo. exactly one- half what tho Santa Fe wants from Ardmore. I havo thee cars of those mules nnd you can figure In n moment Just why I drive to Gainesville. With two men I can drive the mules Into Gainesville easily In a day and with their feed for dinner the entire ex penso will not oxceod $10 or $12. The difference therefore makes quite a lit tic sum. which I need as bad as the railroad does. If Mr. Howies is correct In what he says, and we have no roason to doubt It, the Santa Fe rato Is certainly ex orbltant nnd no man can be blamed from withdrawing patronage from It undor sueh conditions. We know noth Ing about tho rates on merchandise, etc.. but simply speak of the Incident which is given above. Wo look for a happy change In tho near future, however, from such con lltlons, with the advent of the two now roads now lmllding In hero a competition Is sure to arise which will make rates easior on tho business people. Self-Running Bicycle. V. M. Scroggs, of Kansas City, Is In the city today with his motor cycle. Mr. Scroggs represents the Wlscon sin Wheel Works, and has with him a motor cycle that Is supplied with an electro-gasoline motor, which runs the wheel, nnd all the rider has to do Is to stay on top and guide the machine, The gnsollnc tank rests Just behind the sent and holds enough to nn the wheel from 100 to 125 miles.
