Williams Would Enforse Grandfather Clause Candidate for Governor, Seek to Ride in Office on Prejudice. A FEARLESS EXPONENT OF RIGHT AND JUSTICE Get in T Covering The Entire State of Williams Would Gra Candidate for Gov in Office or WAGONER. OKLA. JULY 3. I want to say to you Wagoner county people who have been sorely tired with this negro problem that if I am elected governor I will exert every legitimate influence in my power to enforce the provision of the "grandfather clause" This declaraton by Judge Robert L. Williams, in his speech at Coweta Thursday brought the big audience to its feet. The statement followed a series of rousing utterances of democratic principles as applied to state government and Judge Williams had been frequently interrupted by enthusiastic hand clapping. Cheers rose above the applause and both were long and continued. Judge Williams waved his hand for silence, standing with his arm outstretched in one of his characteristic poses. It was the signal for renewed outburst. The din became deafening a d the band struck up "Dixie." As the marital crash of the famous battle hymn sounded many mounted their seats, waving their nats and shouting until the last strain had died away. A repetition of the demonstration was almost precipitated when Judge Williams continuing declared "I want to say moreover that I have no conscientious scruples on capital punishment." When silence had been restored Judge Williams explained that he realized that a great many good people do have conscientious scruples on the subject. Idolized at Wagoner. He declared his belief, however that so long as the law of the land imposes the death penalty that executive clemency should not intervene. Judge Williams has long been idolized by the Wagoner county democracy on account of his opinion on the state supreme bench upholding the grandfather clause and feeling on the subject has been particularly strong and bitter here since the brutal murder of the young Kentuckian W. E. Harian at Tallahassee, in 1910, by the negro Joe Cotton. The murderer's death sentence was commuted to life imprisonment and this intensified popular approval of capital punishment in such extreme cases. Judge Williams and his friends here formed a motor caravan as their automobiles in a long chugging line wound over the prairies and through the valleys of Wagoner county Thursday. --- SUCCESSOR TO THE MUSKOGEE STAR TULSA, OKLAHOMA, SATURDAY JULY 11, 1914 Official Call Western Negro Press Association Called Will Meet At Muskogee August 18th And 19th To the Members of the Western Negro Press Association: By virtue of the power vested in me as your elected president I hereby call the Association to meet in its 16th annual session in the City of Muskogee, Oklahoma, August 18th and 19th, 1914, for the purpose of transacting the business of the Association, electing officers and discussing such public questions as may be brought before the Association.

Y) Boy swiftest Runner In Athletic By two record breaking performances at the annual high school track and field championship meet on the public school athletic field in Brooklyn the second week in June, Frank Jenkins of Far Rockaway, N. Y added new laurels to his already brilliant record. Jenkins started off very calmly in the run, but suddenly took on speed which made him the winner by fifteen yards. He covered the distance in 4 minutes 35 4-5 seconds eclipsing the old record of 4 minuets 40 3-10 seconds established by Young of Manual Training High school in 1907. Following this splendid piece of running, the negro lad came back in the half mile and in an exhibition of grit and pluck fairly lurched over the finish line, his last ounce of strenth spent, in 2 minutes 44-2 seconds. Jenkins was the only colored boy running in the meet. National Negro Business Men Meeting Near at Hand. Boley Prepering to Entertain League. The National Negro Business Men's League which meets at Muskogee next month will be the largest and most spectacular meeting ever held in Oklahoma: The State League officers have made preparation to entertain the National League, and the local League throughout the State, are making preparations to attend the meeting. The National League will meet on the 19-20 21 of August, in the Convention hall at Muskogee. After the session at Muskogee, the League will visit Boley en masse. Elaborate preparations are being made by the citizens of Boley to entertain this great body of business men and farmers from all parts of the country and no one doubts Boley's ability to successfully carry out her plans. A number of farmers throughout the State will send exhibits to Muskogee. The Oklahoma Booster Edition of THE TULSA STAR will be one of the interesting features of this meeting. Write-ups and cuts of prominent Negroes of the State will appear in this edition; also cuts of farms, farm homes; city homes etc, which will show in a feasible way the progress of the race in Oklahoma. Quite a number of farmers have promised to send exibits to the meeting, and the editor of this paper is spending considerable time encouraging farmers to do this.

The Lauston Monotype composing Machine Company, located at Philadelphia, Pa., of which J. Maury, Dove, Pres of the J. Maury Dove Coal Company, of Washington, D.C. is president, advertised in the printers trade journals for cable printers to come to Philadelphia and learn the course, which takes six weeks, is taught free to applicants accepted The application blanks of the Company search into exacting detials of the applicant's printorial history, extending back to apprentice days and down to current date. A goodly number of references are required, and more prominent the printing firms mentioned, which can be supported by favorable replies to the Monotype Company's inquiries, more likely the acceptance, as it is the company's idea to accept only the best, and thereby secure those who will likely develop into high-class operators, and thus advertise the capabilities of the composing machine. A well known colored printer of this City applied to be enrolled for the keyboard course, and he having worked continuously upward of twenty-five years as a compositor and linotype operator in some of the largest and best reputed job and daily newspaper offices of the country, his application was accepted So well pleased was the company with his references that when it was inconvenient for him to show up at Philadelphia on the first date assigned, he was advised that a place would be made for him whenever it was convenient for him to come. The applicant in question presented himself per assignment, at the factory in Philadelphia, Monday June 22, at 9 A. M. Mr Bowie, who is in charge of that department, read his letter to the applicant, which was the means of identification, and handed it back, saying: "Sorry; we cannot accommodate you; we did not know that you were colored." The rejected applicant at once wired a prominen. F street merchant -a good friend-and a large customer of the J Maury Dove Coal Co. A reply was recieved in about an hour, which stated that the matter had been taken up.

CRINATION Rejected in the City ly Love NEED APPLY Discrimination in Philadelphia e Going North—Negro ike Back. a second trip, and Mr. Dove, who told him that he did not like to interfere, etc. Philadelphia is a City of libera treatment to its colored citizens; the public schools are mixed, and the pretentious moving picture and vaudeville play houses make no discrimination; eating places, such as Pennsylvani avenue and our downtown business streets, serve colored patrons without hesitation. The Jim crow sentiment is not native to that city. The Lanston Monotype Machine company has taught several colored printers the operat on of their keyboard, but it was probably before the accendancy of the Washington contengent, who went out of the way to carry their prejudices in fairly decent territory. The Mergenthaler Linotype Machini Company teach the mechanics of their machine to all whose references justify the expectation of being of service in the exploitation of their machine. The question now naturally arises, how many of the numerous colored, individuals and organizations, who are patrons of the J. Maury Dove Coal company, will meekly contenue to patronize a concern whose policy is dominated by one who, without hesitation, takes Negro-hating prejudices into fairly decent territory, and even though urged by a caucasian customer, refuses to let down the barriers which have but recently been erected, when the Negro learns to strike back through the channels of mercilism. a big step in advancement will have been made by the race toward creating and maintaining that self-respect which is so necessary for real solid Progress.

PHIN'S GOOD LUCK By GEORGE MUNSON. Phineas Kelly was accustomed to see "a look in th' old woman's eye," as he phrased it, when he came home to his tea after eight hours of peaceful employment as a bricklayer. Years of practise had enabled him to interpret it accurately. It meant, "lie low, Phineas, for things have been at sixes and sevens all day." On such occasions Phineas, good, honest man that he was, would slip out quietly after tea to the corner saloon, where he would sit talking politics and domestics with his cronies over a glass or two, till the time came to retire home, strictly sober, and prepared to find that the odd and even numerals had straightened themselves out during his absence. On this occasion there was an altogether different look in Mary's eye. "What is it, woman?" he exclaimed, sensing that something quite different from anything in his experience had happened. 'Speak out, Mary, girl! Is it the measles? If Tim's got thim I'll whale the life out of him!" "No, it isn't!" snapped his better half. "Uncle Jim's dead and has left me all his money. The lawyer thinks it will come to five thousand dollars." While Phineas sat, exhausted from emotion, in his chair, Mary read him the letter from Ireland. "What'll I do wid it?" ejaculated her husband. "You're going to be a contractor, Phineas, as you have always wanted to be," answered Mary. "And at the end of the month we leave." Phineas uttered various exclamations, but he was as straw in his wife's hands. Before he went to bed it was understood that he and Mr. Hogan, with whom the subject had been broached at times of day-dreaming, should go into the contracting business. Hogan had saved a tidy sum, and with this legacy their dreams could be realized. During the twenty-eight days remaining before June Phineas was to continue laying bricks. The days that followed were not of unalloyed bliss. Phineas wanted to remain in the little flat, even if he was to be a contractor. But Mary had the "social bee" and she did not fail to impress it upon her husband that, for Tim's sake, they must move to a lo- COLLEGE "Phineas! We Haven't Got Any Money at All." cality more suited to their new station in life. And, as the days went by, and the whole neighborhood assumed a more cordial friendship than ever before. Phineas found that he was no longer free of Rafferty's saloon. "We can't afford to be too friendly with that sort, Phineas," explained his wife. "Flaherty and his wife are good enough people, but just common clay." "We've shook dice together each Saturday night in years," pleaded Phineas. "And what about that Sunday picnic with them and the Hooligans?" "There won't be any picnic," asseverated Mary irritably. Nevertheless Phineas did manage to meet his old friends by various subterfuges, and he carefully explained the situation to them. "The best woman in the world, Mike," he told Flaherty. "But you know how it is with women, Mike. The money's sort of turned her head." "That's all right, Phin," responded Mike Flaherty. "This one's on me." To the neighbors, indeed, it seemed a natural thing that Mrs. Kelly should want to rise in the world; and if there was a little envious gossiping, the sight of the good woman, as she went down the street resplendent in her new gowns (purchased with the last of their saved money) turned envy to admiration. Meanwhile Hogan and Kelly had arranged their partnership. There was a fine opening in the town, and Hogan was to put in a couple of thousand, supplementing his smaller contribution with his political "pull." The new apartment was leased and the Kellys were preparing to leave. Mrs. Kelly only required a week to pack, being a methodical woman. But as the week progressed that look came into her eye more and more frequently, till Phineas, having no refuge now, to which fly, was driven to bay. "What is it, Mary?" he asked one evening, when his wife had been more than usually morose. He half expected the tartest of rejoinders; but, to his astonishment, his wife burst into tears and laid her head upon his shoulder. And Phineas found himself caressing her as he had not done since Tim was a baby. "Phineas," she wept, "I feel so mean and hateful, the way I've treated the Flahertys and the Hooligans, after the friends we've been. It's for the boy's sake, Phineas, dear, isn't it?" "Sure, that's all right," answered her husband. "They understand." "Do you think they think I think they aren't good enough for us?" inquired his wife, raising her face, wet with tears. "I guess they think they'd do as much if they were in your place, Mary," he answered. "For half a pin," said Mary, "I'd stay right on here for old times' sake, and—and invite the Hooligans and Flaherty to the picnic after all. But—" she sighed—"It's for Tim's sake, isn't it?" "Sure," answered her husband, bravely, though he, too, was thinking of his old friends and those merry evenings at Rafferty's. But three days remained when the post brought a letter from the lawyers in Ireland. Phineas brought it dutifully to his wife. She opened it and gave a scream. "Phineas! We haven't got any money at all!" she gasped. Phineas Kelly, with a mixed feeling of joy and sadness, took up the missive and spelled it out: "We beg to inform you," he read, "that an error was made in stating that the estate of your late uncle, Mr. James Smyllie, was likely to be proved at five thousand dollars. The total amount of the estate is seventeen thousand, all of which goes to you under the will, and—" "Seventeen thousand!" cried Mary Kelly, springing from her chair and grasping the letter from her husband's hand. "Phineas! It's true! Listen! And a check for this amount will be forwarded in a few days to you." Suddenly the excited woman began to execute a pas seul before her husband's eyes. "Mary!" he exclaimed, "you'll be too tired to pack if you—" "But we're not moving, Phineas! We're going to stay right on here." "But we've got seventeen thousand, woman!" he cried. "That's why, Phineas," she answered. "With five thousand we could never be sure that the neighbors really looked up to us, but with seventeen thousand we know. We can afford to now. See?" Phineas saw. He saw a welcome corner in Rafferty's and the familiar faces of his old friends smiling out of a cloud of tobacco smoke. And the kiss he gave Mary drove away the "look" forever. (Copyright, 1914, by W. G. Chapman.) Test of Character. But responsibility is the great character-developer, and very few of us really know what we can do until we are put to the test. The market is long on men who can take orders, but short on those who can intelligently issue them. Responsibility requires a certain amount of initiative; the willingness to act when occasion demands and the courage to fail under honest effort and take the consequences. Of course you may fail; but you can't tell whether you will succeed until you try; and having tried to the utmost of your ability and failed, is better than never to have tried at all. Better because in every loss there is the compensation of experience, while mere inaction means mental and physical stagnation, the dam and sire of annihilation—Leslie's. Strictly Logical. Professor Sudbury, who was extremely near-sighted, went to the barber's, sat down in the barber's chair, took off his glasses, and allowed himself to be shaved. When the artist was done with him he did not move and for a while nobody disturbed him. But other customers began to arrive and the chair was needed. The head barber, suspecting that his learned patron had fallen asleep, asked his boy to wake him. The professor overheard the order. "No, my good man," he said, "I am not asleep. The fact is I am frightfully near-sighted. When I took my glasses off just now I was no longer able to see myself in the mirror opposite. Naturally I supposed I had already gone home."

Properly speaking, a bungalow is but one story high, and is covered with a roof having very little pitch to it. But we are always improving things. It would be utterly impossible for the bungalow to travel across the continent from California as far east as Chicago without receiving the inventive attentions of the western sons of our "Down-East" Yankee ancestors. In this plan we have a dwelling of modest dimensions, being 25 feet from front to rear, and 32 feet in width, with a four-foot extension to make room for a pantry. In this way we get three splendid rooms on the first floor, and they are well arranged for both convenience and looks. Pantries were never properly built until this outside attachment was hit upon. It was born of necessity, like many other valuable inventions, and was improved upon as occasion demanded. Pantries are intended for the storage of food, both cooked and otherwise. Naturally, pantries should be kept as cool as possible, and they should be well ventilated at all times. Light is a necessity, and convenience is very important, for the pantry is d. visited many times during the preparation of each meal, and meals come along regularly three times a day in most healthy families. You can't have a cool pantry, and have it built in the body of the house along with the other rooms, especially in a furnace-heated house. In one little house where a pantry attachment like this was built on, the space below was made into a cold-fruit room. The main cellar wall was carried across solid and straight, except for a doorway; and a good, heavy door was hung in the opening. The outside wall under the pantry was carried up in the same solid way, and a good outside window put in, which PORCH KITCHEN 14'0"X9'6" LIVING RM. 13'0"X16'6" DINING RM. 14'0"X14'6" PORCH 20'0"X10'5" First Floor Plan. was covered with a fine wire screen. Shelves were built in this fruit room against the outside wall, from near the cement floor clear up to the ceiling. As the room is eight feet six inches long this gave considerable shelf room; and it proved a splendid place to store canned fruit, butter, eggs, and such groceries as a person likes to buy in quantities and keep on hand. The fruit room and the pantry above were connected by means of a dumb-waiter, which has just a box about a foot square and three feet long, vertically open on the front side, and fitted with two shelves in the middle. There was a pulley near the ceiling in the pantry, and a rope with a counterweight on the other end which balanced the box so that it would slide easily up and down. With this convenience it was never necessary to tote things up or down cellar. Only one trip below was necessary at any meal time. Very often the box itself contained everything needed, and it was only a minute's work to pull it up into the pantry. Another feature in this little house, that is quite new, is the stairway built around the big chimney. It not only looks well from the large living room, but it occupies the least important corner of the house; and it lands you upstairs in the middle of the hall, in close proximity to the doors leading CL CL BED RM. 9'6"X12'0" HALL BED RM. 10'0"X13'6" NOOK 13'0"X6'6" Second Floor Plan. into the different rooms. Under this stair are the steps leading to the cellar, so that space is economized to the best advantage. The material for the walls is concrete, preferably run in molds with provision made for dead air spaces, on the hollow wall principle, as this makes the warmest house because it prevents dampness. And it is the cheapest construction if you take lasting qualities into consideration. A massive effect is given by the heavy loggia pliers. And this loggia, by the way, is considered one of the most attractive parts of the whole house. The square openings are eas- No. 5079 x ily fitted with fly screens, so it is adapted for an outdoor summer parlor; and the size is sufficient to be of some use, as it is 10 feet wide and 20 feet long. The rooms upstairs are stolen from the roof space. And they are right nice little rooms, too. When I think back a few years to the time when all such room room was counted as attic space, good only for storage of old truck, it is easy to realize to what extent small houses have been improved. Instead of a dark, dingy loft, without floor, partition, or daylight, we now have three bedrooms and a splendid bathroom with hot and cold water, the same as in large, expensive houses. Then, in the matter of light, what a change! We have here 14 windows for four rooms and one stairway—which certainly looks like a liberal allowance, even for these times of extravagant ideas. It has taken us a long time to learn that we can build an elegant small house as well as an elegant large house, and we are just commencing to put our knowledge to some practical use. Such cottages as this are becoming common in the more enterprising suburbs of the larger cities; and the indications are that they will continue to grow in popularity, for they meet the requirements of flat dwellers, who have become heartily sick of living in dungeons. The estimated cost of this homelike place is $2,500. The Discussion. "The wags say Noah used ark lights." "No, if the ark had pitch within and without, it must have been pitch dark."

There's a good deal of satisfaction and comfort in hitting upon the right thing to rid one of the varied and constant ailments caused by coffee drinking. "Ever since I can remember," writes an Ind. woman, "my father has been a lover of his coffee, but the continued use of it so affected his stomach that he could scarcely eat at times. "Mother had coffee-headache and dizziness, and if I drank coffee for breakfast I would taste it all day and usually go to bed with a headache. "One day father brought home a pkg. of Postum recommended by our grocer. Mother made it according to directions on the box and it just 'hit the spot.' It has a dark, seal-brown color, changing to golden brown when cream is added, and a snappy taste similar to mild, high-grade coffee, and we found that its continued use speedily put an end to all our coffee ills. "That was at least ten years ago and Postum has, from that day to this, been a standing order of father's grocery bill. "When I married, my husband was a great coffee drinker, although he admitted that it hurt him. When I mentioned Postum he said he did not like the taste of it. I told him I could make it taste all right. He smiled and said, try it. The result was a success, he won't have anything but Postum." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs. Postum now comes in two forms: Regular Postum—must be well boiled—15c and 25c packages. Instant Postum—is a soluble powder. Made in the cup with hot water—no boiling—30c and 50c tins. The cost per cup of both kinds is about the same. GREATEST PARACHUTE ACT BE. FORE PUBLIC FOR TWELVE DAYS, SEPT. 22 TO OCT. 3. World-famous aeronauts as they will appear daily at the Oklahoma State Fair and Exposition, Oklahoma City, September 22 to October 3. Ed. R. Hutchinson, America’s fore- most and most successful aeronaut, has been engaged at an enormous ex- pense to appear daily at the eighth annual Oklahoma State Fair and Ex- position, Oklahoma City, Sept. 22 to Oct. 3, 1914. In giving out the announcement ot the engagement of this world-famous aerial navigator, the statement was made that the greatest parachute act of the century will be presented when two men will make eight parachute drops froth one balloon, The act is declared to be the last word in aero: nautic daring—a daredevil, death-de- fying parachute feat, that beggars de- scription, and the greatest perform: ance of the kind in the world today. It is said the spectators will have on™ cr oy hay many kinds of thrills when the jump+ ers begin to make their terrific whirl at a frightful speed through space each time @ parachute opens, In a word, just as fast as one parachute opens and begins to permit the aero- nauts to descend gently to the earth, they make another jump and so on until eight are made. ‘The mammoth balloons that will be used on this occasion are the finest 1 the world today, and) will be filled by the up-to-date process, requiring only a few minutes to fill. Specta- tors will be permitted to gather around the balloons, within a reason- able distance, before the terrific and perilous start, which will be more than the start of the balloons in the old days when old-time methods were employed, There will be all the excitement of the start of a horse race, or auto- mobile race, accompanied by the novel and sublime features of a balloon go- ing up and the expectancy of what may happen before the two men get back to mother earth, Contracts for this tremendous act ‘are not problematicil but have already been closed, Under the terms of the agreement, Hutchinson himself will come to the Oklahoma State Fair and Exposition to direct the flights of Howard and W, H.

PUL SG A OC DA, 8 TAR est| DEATH-WATCH CAT 1S HAPPY] ACK | Poe-esque Animal, Whose Cries Re- | nts,| Veled, Master's’ Body, Gets New | Jake, the black cat whose wails led neighbors to the dead body of Frank Hamble of 216 West Sixty-ninth street, Los Angeles, after life had been ex- tnct a week, found a new home. He slept for hours in the sunshine, ap- parently unmmindful of the harrowing hours spent shut in the room with ine remains of his late master. Neighbors adopted the cat when, al- most starved, it was taken Sunday from the little two-room house where Hamble passed the last hours of his life. Jake was almost a skeleton, and great care had to be taken at first in order not to overfeed him, but, stretched in a rocking chair, bis sides bulging and his big green eyes closed to mere slits, Jake was the picture of contentment. Hamble's mother, Mrs, PF, A. Saun- ders, offered to care for the sole com- panion of her son for many months prior to his death, but when she found Jake apparently happy and content to remain with a neighboring family, she left him in his adopted home. ‘The body of Mr. Hamble was found by Patrolman Johnson after the mournful cries of the cat had aroused the neighborhood to the fact that something was wrong in the little cot: tage, Beauty Rules for Summer.

Saving the Innocents. “Just as the twig 1s bent the tree's inclined,” wrote Pope, and as he was discussing “man” and not arboricul- ture, he undoubtedly had the babies and their welfare in mind. The season is near at hand in our larger cities, if not already here, when the health of our infant population should be a mat- ter of philanthropic and public con- cern, as we know to a considerable ex- tent it will be. The floating hospital will put to sea with its precious freight in quest of air that is purest and breezes that are most reviving. The milk stations will do their best with the resources at command, though the city should have a larger part in this beneficent work, We have been mak- Ing progress along this line. We have arrived at a larger perception of both public and private responsibility for the conservation of infant life and health, but the fleld is such a compre- hensive one that much more remains to be done.—Boston Transcript. on heh he i al “This university offers me a degree if I will write ‘em a thesis,” remarked the eminent millionaire, “Um,” “But what sort of a thesis can I write?” “‘Pay the bearer’ ought to fill the bill,” suggested his cynical chief of staff, Marital Reciprocity.

The first step was to outline the an. client and present range of the ante. lope, then to ascertain the probable number at large.

He has made many other pre-election promises, but this one more than any other has seemed to brand him as a very small man wholly unfit to be Governor of any State. The Supreme Court of the United States will pass on the Grandfather Clause in October and Judge Williams is one of those who expects the law to be declared unconstitutional. And if such is not really the case, he shows himself to be beneath the dignity of the office he seeks, when he goes into a community which he knows to be under the law of riot and race prejudice; where only a few months ago a poor defenseless woman was lynched, and in any way encourage race prejudice. The people—the whole people of Oklahoma are demanding a big broad minded liberal hearted man, full of milk of human kindness, honest and conservative, to be the next Governor. Not a small narrow mined petty politician who seeks to ride into office on the skeleton of race prejudice. There are thousands of Negro voters in Oklahoma who expect to support the democratic ticket this fall, but they will expect the democratic party to put good clear men on the ticket. Judge Williams, will meet his fate in the elimination process August 4th. The Oklahoma Booster Edition to be published by THE TULSA STAR offers to the Negroes of this State a splendid medium for showing the outside world what we represent in this State, and at the same time giving new inspiration to thousands of little Negro boys and girls throughout the country.

This is some more "thics" of Jim Crowism. SOMETHING LACKING AMONG NEGROES The Negroes of Oklahoma are among the most prosperous and successful Negroes in the world, and yet there is something lacking in them as co-operative business men. With the wealth and opportunities at the hands of the Negroes of this state there is no good reason why Oklahoma should not have several Negro Oil and Gas Companies, Coal Companies, Wholesale Companies, and in fact any other kind of company. But for some reason these opportunities are going unnoticed and the wealth of Negro men and women in this state is going to enrich thoughtful white men, who are profiting by the Negroes' weak points.

SAINT FOR THE JOURNALISTS Pope Plus IX. Fifty Years Ago, Selected St. Francis De Sales as Their Patron. It will be news to many journalists to learn that they have an officially selected patron saint. But the Manchester Guardian points out that they have, and have had for the last fifty years. Plus IX., at the request of a number of continental journalists, issued a decree on the point. He recommended journalists to seek the help of St. Francis in Sales, whose body has just lately been transferred, with great pomp and marvel popular rejoicing, to a new church at Annecy, in Savoy, his native place. The choice, our contemporary thinks, was an apt one, for St. Francis was a man of letters.

STREET CLEANING LONG AGG Franklin's Autobiography Tells How He Promoted the First Contract Recently at one of the luncheons of the City Club of Philadelphia there was read an extract from the autobiography of Benjamin Franklin which was read to describe the first instance of street cleaning by contract in Philadelphia. The incident is interesting also, however, as illustrating citizen co-operation in its original simplicity. "One day," Franklin wrote, "I found a poor industrious man, who was willing to undertake keeping the pavement clean by sweeping it twice a week, carrying off the dirt from before all the neighbors' doors, for the sum of six-pence per month, to be paid by each house. I then wrote and printed a paper setting forth the advantages to the neighborhood that might be obtained by this small expense. . . . I sent one of these papers to each house, and in a day or two went around to see who would subscribe an agreement to pay these six pences; it was unanimously signed, and for a time well executed. This raised a general desire to have all the streets paved, and made the people more willing to subscribe to a tax that purpose."—The Survey Caver's French Hatters o NEW $1.00 Up W SUITS let us ca Dry Cleaning machinery, which SUITS MADE TO French Dry Cleaning Litters and Dyers Up We mean that we will make your old suits new, - if you will only let us carry them through our Sanitary inery, which has always proven satisfactory.

THE DIPLOMATS TAKE A REGESS NOTE FROM GENRAL CARRANZA CALLS FOR MORE TIME. Issue Now Left to the Rebel and Fed- eral Delegates; Carranza is Still Sparring For Time. Niagara Falls—An indefinite recess of mediation was decided upon by Ambassador Da Gama of Brazil and Ministers Suares and Naon of Chile and Argentina, respectively. This action followed the receipt of a note from General Carranza expressing an inclination to participate in formal conferences with Huerta delegates for the solution of Mexico's civil problems, but asking for more time in which to consult his subordinates. The constitutional chief declared he wished to get full authority from the signers of the plan of Guadalupe, the platform of the constitutional movement, so that delegates might be clothed with plenary powers. The mediators explained that meditation had not adjourned but that perhaps the last formal meeting had been held. Communication hereafter will be carried on by telegraph. The mediators consider their chief work has been done. They have drawn up a series of protocols setting forth the conditions under which the United States will recognize a new government. When a satisfactory government is established American forces will be withdrawn and both international and internal problems solved simultaneously. Originally the three mediators tendered their good offices to avert war. This they think has been accomplished. The three envoyes think that in division of the plan into informal conferences their usefulness is expanded and the question now lies with the Mexicans themselves. It is not at all unlikely that when the constitutionalists and Huerta delegates confer it will be at some place other than Niagara Falls. The diplomats will not visit the informal conferences unless invited but will be ready to render such counsel and advice as may be sought. Whether the American delegates will be present also is a matter of uncertainty. OIL DRILLING ORDERED STOPPED Corporation Commission Puts Ban on any More New Wells Oklahoma City—in pursuance of the agreement reached several days ago among independent oil producers, Corporation Commissioner George A. Monshaw issued an order, carrying out the plan of the oil men for prohibiting the bringing in of any more new wells, except under certain conditions, and providing other regulations for the conservation of the state's greatest natural resources. All pipe line companies are relieved as common carriers from taking the production of any new wells brought in after July 1, except such wells as are provided for in the order. These include necessary offsets, such drilling as is necessary to preserve base tilters, and the wells now being drilled. The application for the order was submitted to the commission by agreement as a result of a conference of all the producers in what is known as the north and northeast sections of Oklahoma. DRASTIC WORK TO STOP PLAGUE SURGEON GENERAL REACHES NEW ORLEANS TO FIGHT CONTAGION. RAT SURVEY IS THE FIRST WORK Other Cities to Assist in Campaign; Will Inspect all Vessels That Clear From The Port. New Orleans-The bubonic plague situation here was turned over to the federal authorities at a meeting of representatives of the various business organizations of the city, members of the city and state boards of health and others. Dr. Rupert Blue, surgeon general of the United States public health and marine hospital service, who arrived from Washington is now in charge. Doctor Blue in addressing the meeting stated that some time necessarily would be required in stamping out the contagion. He stated that a thorough rat survey of the city must be made in order to determine the extent of the infection and to guard against the possible outbreak of the malady in a new zone. The announcement was made by Dr. Blue that he would order plague experts here from Washington and that possibly a corps of expert rat catchers from San Francisco would be sent here to assist in the extermination of rats. It also was announced that all vessels leaving this port would be thoroughly inspected, fumigated and cleared of rats. Vessels clearing from here, it is stated, would be admitted to ports of all parts of the world. The plans adopted were thoroughly approved by the health officers of Alabama, Texas, Shreveport, La., and other points who were present at the meeting. The visiting health officers stated that their respective states would not quarantine against New Orleans so long as the conditions here remained favorable. City and state health, author!t's will co-operate with the United States public health service in any preventive measures they may undertake here. Already a campaign for the extermination of rats is well under way, 231 of the rodents being captured the first day and 316 the second day in the 6,000 traps which were placed in the infected zone. Inspector Ball of the city board of health is in charge of a force of 400 men now engaged in a general clean-up of the city. MORE BEER: BUT LESS WHISKEY Simokers Also Increase, According to Revenue Figures. Washington.—Americans drank less whisky during the past twelve months than they did the year before, but they consumed more beer and smoked a great many more cigarets. Reports to the internal revenue commissioner showed that receipts for the fiscal year just closed totaled $866, 096 less than for the previous year and most of this decline was due in marked degree to tax collected on distilled spirits. The statements for the month of June are not yet available, but in the first eleven months of the fiscal year there was a decrease of $3,734,857 in the income from the manufacture and sale of distilled liquor. Receipts from tobacco taxes showed an approximate increase over last year of $2,800,000. This gain is due almost entirely to a phenomenal increase in the cigaret trade. The gain in receipts from fermented liquor, beer, ales and the like, was about $800,000. COTTON CONDITIONS ARE BETTER Government Report on the Great Staple Shows Improvement. Washington.—A total area of 38,960,000 acres of cotton is in cultivation in the United States, according to the preliminary estimate of the department of agriculture. This compares with 37,438,000 acres, the revised estimate of average in cultivation a year ago; 37,088,000 acres picked last year; 34,283,000 in 1812, and 36,043,000 acres in 1811. The condition of the growing crop on June 15 was 79.6 per cent of a normal, as compared with 74.3 per cent on May 25, this year; $1.8 per cent on June 25, last year; and $0.7 per cent the ten-year average on June 25. The condition is slightly more than 1 per cent below the average condition of June 25 for the past ten years. Bush weather starts in the season caused a low condition in a number of states, but during June conditions in those conditions improved greatly. TULSA. OKLA. STAR JOSEPH CHAMBERLAIN DEAD Y Joseph Chamberlain, for many years a Liberal member of parliament from Birmingham, a member of several cabinets and the leader of his party, died last week, having been an invalid several years. OWN RUMB KILLS ANARCHISTS ROOM IN NEW YORK WAS INFER NAL MACHINE FACTORY. Two of the Dead Men Were Industrial Workers of the World Members Due for Trial at Tarrytown. New York.—In the ruins of the Lexington avenue tenement house, wrecked by the premature explosion of a bomb that killed Arthur Caron and three other persons, the authorities found evidence that Caron's apartment was a center for the distribution of inflammatory literature which was printed there; and that at the time of the explosion it was apparently a bomb factory filled with the ingredients of death dealing missiles. A small printing press, revolutionary pamphlets and circulars, an electric dynamo, two electric batteries, cartridges and bits of steel were among the articles uncovered which tend in the opinion of the police, to show an anarchistic plot at assassination. That a demonstration, halted by the bungling of some one who was preparing an infernal machine for its mission, was planned against the Rockefeller family in Tarrytown, is the theory on which the authorities are working. Two of those killed in the wrecked apartment were prominent agitators who were to be placed on trial at Tarrytown Monday on charges of disorderly conduct in connection with the campaign of demonstration against John D. Rockefeller, Jr., as a protest against his attitude in the Colorado coal mine strike. The body of the fourth victim was that of Charles Berg, known in International Workers of the World circles as the "Big Swede," an associate of Caron. The other victims were Charles Hanson and Mary Claves. The woman lived in an apartment next to the one occupied by Caron and his associates. TWO ARE VICTIMS OF LIGHTNING Terrific Storm Follows Gore's Speech at Sallisaw. Sallisaw, Okla.—A terrific rain and electrical storm broke over the picnic grounds at Sallisaw just as Senator Thomas P. Gore finished his speech. A bolt of lightning which demolished a refreshment stand in which a hundred persons had taken refuge killed two persons outright, three others are expected to die and fifteen are in a serious condition, while at least 200 persons were knocked to the ground. The dead: HOOPER McKEEL, young son of Professor Alonzo McKeel who teaches school near Salisbury. JOHN STEWART, farmer, Atkins. There were about 2,000 persons on the grounds when the storm broke and great confusion followed the striking of the lightning. Senator Gore had just left the grounds when the catastrophe occurred and was not injured. State Highway Commissioner Silmer Suggs of Ardmore who was scheduled for an address also escaped without injury, as did Robert L. Williams, candidate for the democratic nomination for governor, and Dishart Judge John Fiskhard of Tabbusham. AXE-MAN KILLS ENTIRE FAMILY MAN AND WIFE, DAUGHTER AND GRANDDAUGHTER FOUND DEAD. YOUNG WOMANS HUSBAND SOUCHT Former Tenant Also Missing; Twenty- Nine Such Deaths Reported In Three Years In Central West. Chicago.—A family of four was wiped out by blows from an axe in the German settlement of Blue Island, a suburb. The victims are: JACOB NESLESLA, 72 years old, street sweeper. MRS. ANNIE NESLESLA, wife of Jacob, 65. MRS. MARTHA MANSFIELD, 24, daughter of the Neslesla's. Two-year-old daughter of Mrs. Mans- field. Whether the butchery was the work of a maniac or of a person seeking revenge, was not disclosed in the investigation. It was rearned that the young mother of the infant had been living away from her husband for some time and efforts to find him were started. His name was said to be William. Each of the slain was struck in the head. Bloody finger prints on the axe handle were photographed. Search was instituted for William Mansfield, husband of Martha, who deserted her a year ago, and for Michael Cherewinki. The latter was compelled to vacate the Neslesla house three weeks ago by the landlord in order to make way for the new tenants. He uttered threats against the landlord and Neslesla. Twenty-nine persons have been murdered in the last three years, in Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, Iowa and Illinois by axe blows. The details of almost all the murders are similar and in most of the cases the murder's axe has wiped out entire families. The crimes were committed at night while the victims lay asleep in their beds. In each instance the murderer left but slight clues. GEORGE FRED TALKS TO MUCH First of Secretary Bryan's Ministers To Get the Axe. Washington—Formal announcement of the resignation of Geo. Fred Williams as minister to Greece and Montenegro was made at the state department. His resignation was demanded after a recent interview in which he scored the government of Prince William of Weld, established in Albania by the powers. This case is said to be without precedent in the history of the state department. Other ministers have gotten in trouble through too free criticisms of the conditions existing in the countries to which they are accredited, but it is not recalled that an American diplomatic representative ever before has gone outside his post to discuss the affairs of another country. CURRENCY BOARD HAS QUORUM All Ready Now To Begin New Bank ing System. Washington.—The nominations by President Wilson of three of the five members of the federal reserve board —Chas. S. Hamlin, W. P. G. Harding and A. C. Miller—were confirmed by the senate. The nomination of Paul M. Warburg of New York and Thomas D. Jones of Chicago have not been acted upon by the banking and currency committee Mr. Hamlin, Mr. Miller and Mr. Harding will take the oath of office within a few days and the work of setting in motion the new federal banking system can begin at once. The secretary of the treasury and the comptroller of the currency are ex officio members of the board, which consists of seven members. The five will constitute a quorum to do praecially all the preliminary business. TO SUPPRESS THE RED FLAG Anarchist and I. W. W. No Longer To Hold Sway In New York. New York—One aftermath of the dynamite explosion which wrecked a Harlem tenement house, killing four persons, was a conference of police officials at which a campaign was inaugurated, with a view to suppressing anarchists. Industrial Workers of the World, and kindred agitators in this city. Of the four who met violent deaths recently Arthur Caron and Charles Beng were reported to be I. W.
