THE TULSA STAR School Muddle at Supulka. Attempt at Politics in School The Tulsa Star Correspondent Was On The Ground and Exposes The Game Vol. 1, No. 36 School Muddy at Attempt at Polit The Tulsa Star Correspondent Ground and Expos SAPULPA, OKLA., July 9. Tuesday night of the past week will always be remembered by the better element of the colored citizens of this city. Many honest-hearted persons who had nothing in their minds but to get results that would keep development uppermost in the minds of youthful hearts to enable them to be equal to life's battle. But low and behold, a little band of clickers had met and formulated a plan to make a poor innocent lady who had never been discussed, or the least objection to her service the past term had been questioned, was made the beast of prey. All kinds of attempts were made to railroad things to suit the clickers, but the table had to hold every motion that came before the voters. It was claimed that the meeting was not called for a demonstration of the parents, everybody knew that was in no way true. An attempt was made to select a principal. It was claimed the people did not turn out for that, yet they were so advised in the call. Professor Kirkpatrick, assistant superintendent, was present and made it plain that he had been invited to be present and Colored Dry Farming Congress The officers of the Colored organization of the Farmers Congress in Oklahoma are stiring up no little interest in the International Congress which meets in this city this fall and present plans point to a marked success of this organization here. The following notice has been issued calling a meeting of this organization in Tulsa on July 22nd: There will be a meeting of the Negro Farming Congress of Oklahoma at Tulsa, Tuesday, July 22, 1913, at 10 o'clock a. m. This will be the most important meeting held since the organization of the Farming Congress. Matters of much importance to the Negro farmers, merchants and business men will be discussed. An invitation is extended to all colored men and women. INMAN E. PAGE, Pres. S. L. JAMES, Sec'y. Fire at Motion Picture Show ALMOST CAUSED PANIC A near panic was caused at the Pastime Theater in the Cleaver building on N. Greenwood Monday night when the picture films caught fire and destroyed three reels of films and the machine. John Moore, the operator, narrowly escaped serious injury. When the blaze burst forth from the operator's booth there was a wild scramble for doors and windows by the hundred or more patrons zwithin, but fortunately no SUCCESSOR TO THE MUSKOGEE STAR TULSA, OKLAHOMA, FRIDAY, JUuly 11, 1913 listen to the doings of the people and take their wishes to the superintendent as to who was the choice for principalship of the school. No person present could misunderstand Prof. Kirkpatrick's statement. He told the people they should have the interest of the children at heart and that he was deeply interested in their children. That statement fell from the lips of a white gentleman of polished standing and who have a bright future in public affairs. Later in the discussion a colored man flatly said the people did not turn out to elect a teacher or to have a demonstration. This will tell the whole story about the "COLORED MEN". The age demands men, honest men, truthful men. Then why not put your feet on all deserts, false pretenders and unreliable self interested men. The people well know that the dollar was all that some of the colored men had in mind and they did not hold the welfare of the child ren in the least consideration. Truth crushed to the earth will rise again and when dishones persons sow high they will som days fall like a balloon. one was hurt. The fire department responded to a call in remarkably quick time, but a volunteer bucket brigade had the flames extinguished before the department arrived. A new operator with a new machine has been secured and the Pastime is now open again in full bloom. Miss Williams In Charge of THE PUBLIC LIBARY The Public Library and Reading Room for the Colored people of this city has employed Miss Levada Williams who is in charge daily to serve the reading public.

Why it is that the cost of coal at the mine in Oklahoma in 1910 was $2.22 a ton while the average cost in the United States was but $1.12¢ These are some of the questions that were presented to the last legislature and they were asked by the consumers of coal in Oklahoma to appoint a committee and look into these questions and see if there was anything that could be done to change affairs.

They were not interested in anything except an effort to get cheaper coal for their constituents. If there was any law that could legally be passed, and that would be fair to everyone connected with the industry and at the same time be fair to the people of the state, for whom this committee was acting, they felt that it should be passed. And so the mining laws were revised and amended in certain particulars in response to the report of that committee to the legislature. Not only did the committee seek to lower the price of coal but they sought to safeguard the lives of the men who go down in the mines every day. Certain practices had grown up that were, according to the testimony of government and state officials, not only dangerous to the lives of the men who worked in the mines but dangerous to the existence of the mine itself.

This practice has been abandoned in almost every state in the Union, not only because it results in an enormous increase in the cost of production but because it endangers the lives of the miners. That is just what enlightened sentiment in the Oklahoma legislature demanded and enacted into law. Every man interested in the lives of the people of the state, in the production of coal at a price that will give it to the people of the state at a reasonable figure will heartily endorse the law. A referendum vote will be taken on the law. If you believe in cheaper coal and greater safety for the lives of the men who toll in the mines you will vote NO. Every man in Oklahoma should take the time to cast a ballot on this question. The members of the legislature who investigated these questions did it for the good of the state at large. They sought to aid every one and not to injure any one. They are our representatives and we should stand by them. The question is shall what they have done for the people be vetoed? We answer NO.

A poultry farm built upon a secure foundation is sure to be successful if afterwards properly managed. It is not only necessary to make the right kind of start, but the work must be regularly and faithfully performed, day in and day out. As a rule, beginners start with great enthusiasm, and not a few build air castles—but to very many of them the sameness of the work, the close application, the constant watching, soon becomes monotonous, and then there is a shirking of duty, neglect, carelessness—and the enterprise becomes a failure. The point is to begin small—measure the size of the initial step with the amount of capital and experience at hand. It is often the case that men with more or less available capital practically put all their money in houses and stocks. This is a mistake, says Connecticut Farmer, and more so in the case of those who have had no personal experience in the work. In the parlance of today: "A man must be onto his job." He must know what to do, and how best to do it. CHICKEN Dual Purpose Type. He must be aware that inexperience may cause leaks and leaks will soon sink the enterprise. It is noteworthy fact that the most successful poultry farms of today are those that have started from a small beginning and gradually expanded as business and experience warranted. Men who could not get into the dry goods business for the reason that "they knew nothing about it," will build poultry houses and stock them, and expect the hens to do the rest. Hens, like cows, yield a profit according to the treatment given them. They will not stand neglect. They are hard workers when properly rewarded, but can be most idle and indifferent producers when made to shift for themselves. Our agricultural colleges have done much to teach the new aspirants how to tread in poultry paths, and men and women who endeavor to improve by these excellently arranged courses of instruction, will have won half the battle—the other half naturally belongs to practical experience. A man with $1,000 had better invest one-half of it in buildings, stock and fixtures, and reserve the other half for feed and running expenses, than invest the whole amount in the equipment and have to go in debt for the feed. Eggs and poultry are staple crops, and the demand is far greater than the supply. DRESS POULTRY FOR MARKET Difficult Task to Induce Small Shippers to Prepare Fowls for Market in Attractive Manner. A prominent New York commission nouse says: "Don't you know that it is much harder to get the smaller shippers to follow instructions as regards the packing and dressing than the larger shippers? Every receiver is willing to furnish instructions as regards killing, dressing, packing and shipping, but it is hard to get shippers to follow them. It would make a considerable difference to many shippers if they paid more attention to making their poultry show up an attractive appearance, as we would get more money for it if it pleases the eyes of the buyer more. The larger shippers seem to follow our instructions more and reap the benefit, but it is pretty hard work to teach some of the smaller shippers." BACKACHE IS DISCOURAGING A Backache makes life a burden. Headaches, dizzy spells and distressing urinary disorders are a constant trial. Take warning! Suspect kidney trouble. Look about for a good kidney remedy. A Texas Case J. H. Lee, 418 W. Valuat St., Clebure, Tex. says, "For four years I endured misery from gravel. Morphine was my only relief.

McGraw and Umpire Bill Rigler are always at each other's throats. Each regards the other as his special personal affliction. One day at the Polo grounds Rigler ordered the Giant manager off the coaching line, and then there followed a series of jibes and jeers from the bench that nettled the arbiter. Finally he shed his mask, walked over toward McGraw and declared himself. "If I hear any more guff," he said, "I'll get the guilty parties if I have to clean the whole bench to do it." For several innings not a murmur was heard from the New York quarters. Then, after Rigler had loudly called what appeared to be a bad strike, came one loud guffaw. Rigler raced over, blood in his eye. "Who brayed?" he roared. "Go on, go on, Bill," McGraw replied, soothingly, "it was only your echo." Spectacles Part a Couple Mrs. Louis Magrander blames a pair of spectacles for the trouble between herself and her husband Louis, to whom she has been married 33 years. "I need them part of the time, but he wants to wear them all the time, except when he goes to bed," she says. "And he stays up late just to keep hold of them. They fit us both perfectly." The husband's version, as related in a divorce proceeding at Cleveland, charges that Mrs. Magrander beat him with a club, the police interfering to save a knockout, and refused to cook his meals. Magrander wants the court to compel his wife to pay him alimony. Old Love and New Rug. Here's the overheard conversation that made the day seem more spring-like: "Those people next door to us have been married a long time, haven't they?"" "Perhaps they have. But their honeymoon isn't over yet." "How do you figure that out?"" "Well, it was awfully sloppy last night. But when he came home she made him step inside and kiss her before she told him to go back on the porch and wipe his feet." "Well, honey, youould you——" "No, I wouldn't! We've got a new rug!"

"This towel," said the attendant in the germ-proof barber shop, "has been subject to an extreme heat and is thoroughly sterilized. "Good thing," commended the patron. "This soap has been debacterialized, and the comb and brush are thoroughly antisepticized. "Great scheme," said the patron. "The chair in which you sit is given a daily bath in bichloride of mercury, while its cushions are baked in an oven heated at 187 degrees, which is guaranteed to shrivel up any bacilli that comes along." "My word!" said the patron. "The razor and lather brush are boiled before being used. Even the—" "Well, look here," said the patron, who had been sitting wrapped up in the towel during all this, "why don't you go on and shave me?" "But I am not the barber." "You're not? Where is he?" "They are boiling him, sir." ECZEMA ITCHED AND BURNED R. F. D. No. 8, Maryville, Tenn. "My baby, when three months old, took eczema on his face and head. His head and one side of his face were almost in a solid sore. The eczema at first was kind of a rash and then it broke out in water pimples and they would burst and looked very badly. It would itch and burn so badly that he could not rest at all and his hair just all fell out at once till his head was perfectly bald. He could not sleep at night and was very cross. "I tried remedies without any relief at all; he only got worse all the time until I used Cuticura Soap and Ointment. He had great relief the first application. He was soon curled and his hair began to grow back and now he has just beautiful fine hair and has no sign of eczema." (Signed) Mrs. H. D. Clabough, Jan. 28, 1913.

The kitchen should be the refinery, the laboratory, the factory of the home, and the pivotal point about which the activities of the home revolve. Costs should be considered thoughtfully; no scrap of food should be wasted. It all can be and should be used again in various ways. By buying staple food supplies in large quantities from 15 to 30 per cent. can be saved. Any one wishing to do so may economize in this way. Housewives must not look upon their art as mere drudgery; they must bring education, intelligence and concentration into practice. They should learn, as manufacturers have, that the best results are to be obtained in a workshop that is well lighted, properly ventilated and comfortably large, suitably furnished, and sanitary in all its equipments.—Dr. Adeline G. Soule, in Leslie's. Explaining the Situation. Down in the Red river valley section of Louisiana there is a planter, a veteran of the Civil war, who is noted for his profane vocabulary. Not long since he married, and everything sailed along nicely for a few days. But the captain was called out early one morning by a negro tenant, who wanted to see him on business. As soon as the captain saw the negro, he began to curse him. His young wife, hearing the violent language, stuck her head out of the window and asked: "Is that you, dear?" Before the captain could answer, the negro said apologetically, "No, ma'am; dat's Cap'n Johnson."—Judge. Really First Sunday School. It is often stated that Robert Ralkes was the founder of the first Sunday school at Gloueaster, England, in 1780. The fact is that the first Sunday school was established by Ludwig Hoecker in 1740 at Prhrata, Lancaster county, Pennsylvania. This was forty years before the work of Mr. Ralkes. Mr. Hoecker's school was for the religious instruction of the children of the neighborhood. Among other methods employed he wrote Bible verses upon cards, which the children committed to memory. Later he had the cards printed. Mr. Hoecker died in 1792, after a long and useful career.—Christian Herald. Ever Think of This? "Why don't women dress sensibly?"

At ALBERTA They have a wise ten-year-old boy in a Cleveland family and some of his sayings are worth peddling. At least, his father thinks they are, or he wouldn't tell this one. The other day the youngster approached his father and stared at him for some time. "Daddy," he finally said, "you think mamma is the most beautiful person you ever saw, don't you?" "Of course," replied the father, with great promptness. Again the boy scrutinized his parent. "Gee, daddy," he finally said, "it's an awful pity she can't say the same thing about you, ain't it?" We are having such a carnival of crime in Cleveland nowadays (according to certain papers) that a lady daren't go to the door to meet the postman unless she is armed to the teeth. It is told of a Lakewood woman that she heard a slight noise, or thought she did, the other night and said to her husband: "Oh, John! There are burglars in the house!" "Well, see what they want," grunted John, only half awake. "But you must go down!" "No, you go down. No gentlemanly burglar would dare strike a lady!" Jackson—Whew! That's some cliff!

Boston Tulsa, Okla WHAT THE NEW MINING LAW MEANS The last legislature passed a new mining law, or rather, collected and revised the old laws in effect in Oklahoma. Among other provisions of the new law is one prohibiting miners from shooting off the solid and that the coal, before it is shot shall be undercut. These provisions of the new law are contained in Section 18 of the law and a petition has been filed with the state asking that this section shall be submitted to the voters of the state August 5th, for adoption or rejection. The advocates of the law assert that its passage will serve to prevent the vast waste of human life in the coal mines and that it will also result in eventually cheapening the price of coal to the consumers of the state. Both these results are earnestly to be wished and every voter should post himself on the arguments urged in support of these claims. To a person unfamiliar with the mining region it seems incredible that so many people should lose their lives every year in the production of a product that is so absolutely essential to the people of Oklahoma. In the nation 25,000 miners lay down their lives every year that the people shall have coal with which to keep themselves from freezing and that keeps the various manufacturing industries moving. That a few of these accidents are of that sort which seem unavoidable is certain. But the greatest part of these wastes of human life are the result of carelessness and of laws which permit men to take chances with their own lives and the lives of their fellow workmen. This view is borne out by reports of Oklahoma's own mining inspectors. It is intended by the new law to go a long way toward preventing this waste of human life. That is why every consumer of coal in Oklahoma should vote NO on Question No. 47. You owe it to yourself and to your state and to the thousands of innocent workmen who go down in the coal mines for you. They are at the mercy of men who are careless, who are reckless of their own and others' lives and it seems that nothing but the stern hand of the law will enable the miners to enforce proper regulations against their reckless brethren. Let's help them by law. ```markdown ``` Coal costs $2.22 at the mine in Oklahoma. It costs $1.13 in Indiana. Coal costs the people of Oklahoma about $8.00 a ton, while it costs but $3.00 a ton in Indiana. The new mining law will partially stop this. Vote NO on the effort to repeal this good law. CAPTAIN T. D. JACKSON WILL REPRESENT OKLAHOMA AT EDUC CATIONAL Congress [Name] Captain T. D Jackson, one of the influential citizens of Tulsa, has received direct from the State house a commission from Gov. Cruce appointing him delegate to the National Negro Educational Congress to represent the State of Oklahoma at this great gathering of educators which meets at Kansas City Tuesday July 15th. Capt. Jackson will leave for Kansas City Sunday or Monday. The new mining law will cause some additional expense to the millionaire mine operators, but it will safe-guard the lives of the men and will aid in bringing the price of coal down. Vote NO when you are asked to repeal this good law.

A well-dressed man was hurrying along the Rue de Passy, Paris, when he slipped, and falling forward dashed his elbow through the window of a wine shop. The proprietor rushed out to claim the price of his window and a large crowd gathered to see fair play. The man who had broken the window protested that he had no money. "Search him!" shouted some one in the crowd. There were no policemen about, so the wineshop keeper and a few friends took the law into their own hands, searched the man's pockets and found a £20 note. The crowd advised the wineshop keeper to pay himself well for his broken window. He took £2 to pay for his broken glass, and the unpopular man who had broken it went away with a torn coat and £18 change. The £20 note was a forgery.

Felsor and His Bride Relieved of Automobile and Horses Are Forced to Travel Miles Through Trackless Country. San Antonio, Tex.—M. B. Telsor and his bride are in the remote border town of Boquillas, resting from a strenuous trip of 200 miles through the mountainous portion of northern Mexico, which they made to escape death at the hands of outlaws. Mr. Telsor was manager of a ranch on the plateau known as Liano de los Cristianos, more than 300 miles from the nearest railroad point. He is an American. While on a visit to San Antonio, Tex., several weeks ago he married Miss Dora Seltrous. The young lady was reared on a ranch in western Texas, and when her husband suggested that she remain with her parents in San Antonio pending an improvement of conditions in Mexico she told Mr. Telsor that nothing would delight her more than to be with him upon the remote Mexican ranch among quiet surroundings. "Our troubles began shortly after we crossed the Rio Grande at Eagle Pass on our way to the ranch," said Mr. Telsor. "On my way out of the country I had left my motor car at Eagle Pass and my wife and I started to the ranch in it. We were below the boundary line, when we were held up by a ragged Mexican and a number of peons, who informed us they were constitutionalists. The leader said he would have to commandeer my automobile. He conflicated it, giving me a receipt for its value, the sum to be paid when the constitutionalists get control of the government. I made vigorous protest against the proceedings, threatening to bring down the wrath of he United States government upon their heads. They only laughed and shrugged their shoulders. I finally managed to enlist their sympathy enough to get them to provide us with two horses with which to continue our journey. On the fifth day a troop of 20 armed men surrounded our hut. "I knew the desperate character of many of the border Mexicans and BOY'S FLAG SAVES RICH MAN Weakness of Struggling Victim of Bull Meant Certain Death, but for Red Emblem. Emlenton, Pa.—A small red flag, in the hands of Lawrence Mortland, a boy of ten years, saved the life of Joseph Grieff, a wealthy oil operator, when he was attacked by an infuriated bull on his farm at an early hour the other morning. Grieff was crossing the field, when the animal made a rush for him. By dodging he managed to evade the onslaught of the bull. Taking advantage of the only chance to save his life, Grieff caught the animal by the neck and attempted to prevent goring. In his efforts to evade the horns of the bull Grieff was several times hurled to the ground and trampled on. When it appeared as if he would be killed, young Mortland, who had seen Grieff's predicament from afar, came running down the road with a small red flag, waving it furiously and yelling. Of a sudden the bull looked up and, seeing the red flag waving what I worst feared was an attempt on the part of the band to carry off my bride. It looked like serious trouble when three of the Mexicans dismounted and stood in a group discussing the situation in low tones. They had already taken possession of our two horses and saddles. With their riffes in their hands the three men walked to the door and peered inside. When the intruders saw us they removed their hats and bowed in the courteous manner that is common to all Mexicans. They are polite even when about to commit murder. "In a quiet, polite way, the Mexicans told me the constitutionalists were in need of horses and money. Would I and my beautiful lady please deliver over to them what money we had and also turn over our horses for the good of the cause? "The argument I made was useless. We were made to comply with the demands of the rebels, or outlaws, whichever they were, and were glad nothing worse had happened to us. We were left stranded in a desolate region, without money or means of traveling, except on foot. I asked the sheep herder if there were any cattle ranches in the neighborhood. To our delight, he informed us that the ranch of Bill Blocker, an American, was only 15 miles away. "We get out next morning on foot to the Blocker ranch. It took us all day to get to the ranch, where we were welcomed by one of the Blocker boys. We were given two horses and a Mexican guide, and on the third day my wife and I resumed our journey to the ranch. 75 miles distant. "It was a terrible journey, lasting many nights and many days. It was through an almost trackless country. For days at a time our only sustenance was the juice and roots of cactus plants and wild berries. We slept upon the ground without covering. I cannot tell you how happy we were when we struck a Mexical Jacal, just the other side of the Rio Grande, and later were brought to this side of the river and then to Boquillas."

Losh, a miner, died at the Memorial hospital from an attack of measles. at him through the fence, made a wild rush for the boy. Grieff, although badly injured, managed to crawl to the fence and through to the road, while Mortland was taunting the maddened bull with the flag. Grieff fell unconscious a moment after reaching safety. He sustained several broken ribs and was badly injured. The bull, in his efforts to reach the red flag and young Mortland, nearly tore down the fence. FORGED TO BE A "ROOTER" Young New Yorker Lays Crime to His intense Love for Game of Baseball.

BUY TIMARCHUS SILVER COIN British Museum Acquires Relic of Babylon—Is Very Rare and Highly Prized London.—The British museum has just acquired a silver coin of Timarchus, Satrap of Babylon, part of the Syrian empire. Timarchus on the death of the reigning king of Syria, Antiochus IV., in 162 B. C., usurped the throne, refusing to acknowledge Demetrius and his wife, Laodice, the legitimate successors. Timarchus reigned only one year, during which time he struck a few coins, which are now very rare. Of these one is a unique gold coin now in the Berlin museum; another a unique silver coin of one drachm, which is in the British museum. Until recently no specimen of the larger four drachm silver coin was known to exist except one, which had been taken by the legitimate rulers, Demetrius and his wife, and restruck with their portraits. Last year a coin bearing the effigy of Timarchus was sold at an auction in Germany, and another example, taken to the British museum a short time ago, has now been secured for the national collection. RANCHMAN DIES IN POSTHOLE Californian Falls Into Excavation and Is Suffocated, Being Unable to Extricate Himself. Stockton, Cal.—Rbmain Moll, a wealthy rancher of this county, met an unusual and tragic death. Moll and his foreman returned to his ranch near Escalon after attending to business matters in Stockton. Moll started to walk to Escalon. He cut across the fields and while walking near the Tidewater & Southern railroad stumbled over a mound of dirt and fell head first into a post-hole. The hole was about two feet wide and six feet deep. Moll was unable to get out and was suffocated. His body was found by a section crew. The men noticed a little dog standing on the track. They followed the dog, which took them to the place where his master had met his death.

One evening the guests were all seated around the table earnestly talking on an important topic. Little Frank came running in shouting: "Papa, papa!" "Hush, Frank, little children should be seen and not heard." Frank subsided into silence and pensively sucked his finger. Later his father said: "Well son, what did you want to say before?" "Just that the bathtub was overflowing." She Obeyed Orders. A lady had invited to dinner an old friend who had lost her nose in an accident. Taking her young daughter aside before she arrived, she cautioned her to be careful to make no remarks about Mrs. Hill's nose, as she was very sensitive about it. At the table Ethel, who had been studying the guest's face in apparent perplexity, turned inquiringly to her mother and asked: "Ma, why did you tell me to say nothing about Mrs. Hill's nose. She hasn't got any." Fair Speed. Wistfully he gazed out to sea, and for a long while sat motionless, watching the restless waves. Then again he turned to his fair companion, and took her hand in his.

"No, Jack," she said; "for the twelfth time this hour I tell you I will not." Jack rose to his feet. "Oh, well," he sighed, "after all, twelve knots an hour is not bad speed for a little craft like you." CUBS' FOOD Healthy babies don't cry and the well-nourished baby that is fed on Grape-Nuts is never a crying baby. Many babies who cannot take any other food relish the perfect food, Grape-Nuts, and get well. "My baby was given up by three doctors who said that the condensed milk on which I had fed her had ruined the child's stomach. One of the doctors told me that the only thing to do would be to try Grape-Nuts, so I got some and prepared it as follows: I soaked $1\frac{1}{2}$ tablespoonfuls in one pint of cold water for half an hour, then I strained off the liquid and mixed 12 teaspoonfuls of this strained Grape-Nuts juice with six teaspoonfuls of rich milk, put in a pinch of salt and a little sugar, warmed it and gave it to baby every two hours. "In this simple, easy way I saved baby's life and have built her up to a strong, healthy child, rosy and laughing. The food must certainly be perfect to have such a wonderful effect as this. I can truthfully say I think it is the best food in the world to raise delicate babies on and is also a delicious healthful food for grown-ups as we have discovered in our family." Grape-Nuts is equally valuable to the strong, healthy man or woman. It stands for the true theory of health.

West Jackson boul. ard, Chicgo, Ill., and only enclose two-cent stamp for reply. Sometimes it is necessary to build a long narrow house in order to make it fit the lot. You cannot hang part of your house over your neighbor's lot without making bad feelings, because neighbors are very apt to be touchy on this point. Anyway, I should rather build a 20-foot house on a 35-foot lot, and have plenty of light and air, with room on one side of the house for a good cement walk running back to the kitchen, and have room on the other side for a good lawn with a border of flowers and shrubbery. The tendency with a great many men is to save money by buying a narrow lot. Property is sold in most places according to the frontage, and is reckoned at so much per front foot; so the width of the lot has a good deal to do with the price you have to pay. A few square feet more or less in the back, where you may raise chickens or vegetables if your taste inclines that way, cuts very little figure. The fellow who has the lot for sale just good-naturedly makes you a present of all that back-lying territory, but he charges a good round price for the street frontage. Because of this custom in selling property, it is the fashion in some places to crowd a house 30 feet wide upon a 33-foot lot. The style of 2003× house to place on village and city lots receives too little attention. Sometimes a whole block is spolled by the mean way in which one pig-headed man builds his home. It is not absolutely necessary to build houses with just one idea in regard to width. Here is an example of a PORCH KITCHEN 10'0" x 12'0" PANTRY 2'6" x 10' BATHROOM DINING ROOM 14'0" x 18'0" VESTIDO PARLOR 12'0" x 12'0" PORCH First Floor Plan. house only 19 feet wide, yet it is well arranged, contains all the necessary conveniences, looks attractive, and is a good house generally. You get the necessary room in the length down towards the back end of the lot where land does not cost anything, for the house is 38 feet deep—just twice as long as it is wide. Years ago, before we understood how to heat houses as well as we do --- TULSA, OKLA., STAR for ERS DFORD now, there was a well-founded prejudice against long, narrow houses, because the heat could not be driven to the end rooms, and nobody wanted to build chimneys all in a row down through the house and set up separate stoves wherever it was found necessary. That objection, however BED ROOM 16 X 10 X 0' PAN 13 X 12' CLOSET BED ROOM 11.0 X 14.0' HALL 14 X 10' CLOSET BED ROOM 12.0 X 12.0' CLOSET Second Floor Plan. does not hold against the small steam or hot-water heating plants that are now so common; and the furnace man has added so much to his knowledge that he can compete on equal footing in a house of eight or nine rooms, and he can outwit the others THE HOME OF THE MOTHER OF THE GIRL when it comes to heating smaller houses. Hot-air furnaces are the most sanitary and the most economical for small houses, in regard both to first cost and to subsequent attendance, because any woman can manage a hot-air furnace when the men folks are away, and the coal bill is little of any greater than it is for the more expensive hat-water heaters, and it is less when measured up against steam. It is not in the province of the architect to specify what kind of heating apparatus you shall use in this house. You might freeze to death, and he would not squael; so it is up to you to make yourself comfortable in cold weather. In regard to heating a small house, bear this in mind: A good hot-air furnace, with joints tight enough to keep the poisonous gases in the right flue, comprises, in addition to the necessary heat, a system whereby you can distribute pure air directly from outdoors to the different: rooms in every part of the house, and send this life-giving ozone to the farthest corner of the most remote bedroom. And this fresh air is absolutely free; it does not cost a dollar. You just hitch a supply pipe to the great air reservoir outdoors, and draw on it all winter long. But I want to give you just a word of caution here: Once in a great while nature has constructed a furnace man on the wrong plan, and if you happen to know this particular individual he may advise you to put a cold-air register in the front hall, and draw the daily supply from this contaminated source. I have known men sane enough to keep out of the asylum for a great many years who would risk their reputation and freedom by advocating just such nonsense 7 CAVALRY CAPTURED A FLEET "Horse-Marines" Figured in Incident of War for the Independence of South America. The Llanero of South America lives on horseback; trades buys and sells on horseback; and during the war with Spain, the Llaneros contributed much toward achieving the independence of both Venezuela and New Granada. In "Up the Orinoco and Down the Magdalena" Mr. H. J. Mozans tells of an occasion when it was necessary for Bolivar's army to cross the Apure, in order to engage Morillo. But Bolivar had no boats, and the Apure at this point was wide and deep. The Spanish flotilla was guarding the river at the point opposite to the patriot forces. Bolivar was in despair Turning to Paez, he said, "I would give the world to have the Spanish flotilla; without it I can never cross the river." "It shall be yours in an hour," replied Paez. Selecting three hundred of his Llanero lancers, all distinguished for strength and bravery, he said, pointing to the gunboats, "We must have these shepheras or die. Let those follow who please." At once spurring his horse, he dashed into the river and swam toward the flotilla. The Llaneros followed him with their lances in their hands, now encouraging their horses by swimming beside them and patting their backs, now shouting to scare away the crocodiles, of which there were hundreds in the river. At last they reached the other side, and sprang from their horses' backs on board the boats, headed by their leader. To the astonishment of every one who beheld it, they actually captured the entire flotilla.—Youth's Companion.

You can not judge a store by a few advertised prices. We have the best corn-fed steers for our beef. Our prices are less than some who sell blue, tough, junk beet. Those who go to market always get the best and the lowest prices. But those who phone their wants or give same to a solicitor always get what is left and pay the highest prices. It should be a pleasure to a mother to go to market and buy for her family. She should select only the best meat and groceries and she should know that she gets the lowest prices and honest weights. It pays to investigate. We give full weight. We do not deliver. CORSCRIBE TODAY. A. J. SMITHERMAN, Ed. Church Directory Wesley Chapel M. E.

Jackson Physician & Surgeon Corner Archer and Greenwood A plan is on foot by the manager of the Tulsa Star, W. H] Carter, to publish a large card known as a ready reference city guide for negro churches, lodges and business firms in Tulsa. The plan is one that is much needed in this city because it is not only information to the visitors to our city, but a constant advertisement for the business and professional people herein. It will tell you when and where your lodgemeets, your church services names and places of negro business and professional men. A real live booster for Tulsa negroes, so get in the habit and lets help boost. For advertising space etc., on this directory see the Tulsa Star "Men" now. It is a pity that our people are ignorant, though to feel that they are it, is when in truth they haven't sense to know they are creatures of ntsfortune. A new moving picture concern has been formed by L. C. Anderson, the grocer, of this city, and John Moore, lately of Claremore, and the Cleaver building has been rented to install the new show. A stage has been erected, electric fans put in and all other necessary equipments for the business completed. The new show will be featured every night, rain or shine, and possibly in the afternoons. This makes two moving picture concerns operated by and for the colored people of Tulsa. Cindie Hint. Professional bleggar (in Hardupp dies)—I've been out of work for over year, miser, and ain't got the prizes of a night's lodgin'. Can yer do any bites to help me out? Hardupp (gardonically)—I'd like to not sprained my foot on a collecte yesterday.
