Oklahoma Legislators IN a Frenzy
Over a Missing Bill.


Over a Missing Bill.
GUTHRIE, o. T., Oct "A bill locating
the permanent capitol at Oklahoma City
passed the upper house Of the territorial
legislature this afternoon. Before action
had been taken on the bill In the upper
house the motion was made in the lower
house TO reconsider, the action
of yesterday was adopted. The
friends OF the measure, however. prevailed
upon Speaker Daniels to sign the bill after
the vote of reconsideration, and Representa-
tive Perry Immediately possessed himself Of
the measure and was hurrylng over to the
chamber of the upper house to obtain the
signature of the presiding officer of that
body. The enemies Of the measure
observed the move, and the
legislative body became a bowling
mob. The spectators Joined the members
and an attack was made upon Speaker
Dauiels and it was demanded Of him in a
peremptory manner that he sees to it that
the bill be returned to the clerk. Speaker

who was just about 70 escape from the hall,
and who in the meantime had handed the
bill to Representative Nesbitt.

Perry ran into the street, with a mob at
his heels. He was caught. Some one cried
Hang him." The cry was taken up, and
became general. The crowd was in earnest.
Perry begged for mercy, and turned his
pockets inside out. 'Nesbit5 has the bill,
he cried.
Nesbitt was in crowd, and a rush was made
for him. Nesbitt kept ahead of the mob
for four blocks, then his strength failed
him and he surrendered. He was marched
back TO the hall, where he was compelled to
deposit the bill on the clerks desk.
ERASED HIS SIGNATURE.
Speaker Daniels took the bill, and accom-
panied by Mr.. Thompson of the Ne,Us as a
witness, repaired to the governors mansion,
where. in the presence Of the governor, he
erased his name, saying: II signed this
bill under Misrepresentation"

Seventy Little Ones Beautifully Provided
For.
The big dancing room in Drew's Hall, on
New Montgomery street, was packed yes
terday afternoon with the ladies of the Occi-
dental kindergarten, the little ones in their
charge and go0dly number of visitors. A
very prettily decorated Christmas tree was
planted upon the platform and the chande-
liers were wreathed with evergreens.
The Occidental has no connection with any
other society organized for the benefit of San
Francisco's little ones. Its members are
alumne of the Girls High School, and with
praiseworthy devotion they minister to the
wants of the children who become their
wards. They clothe, feed and educate them,
provide physician. and give them a good
time every Christmastide.
One year ago but thirty children gathered
around the Christmas tree under the aus
pices of the Occidental kindergarten.
Yesterday there were seventy. They wore
bright tissue-paper caps, cut after fan
--tasiic pattern, and having been conducted
into the hall, were seated in circle upon
the floor, where they sang pretty Christmas
songs until Santa Claus came 10 and un-
loaded himself
toys, candy aud fruit. Each child received
a satisfying portion of the pack and went
away with light heart and big bundle.
Among those who sent contributions to

TIDDLEDY WINKS.
A New Game That Is All the Rage
in Fashionable Society East.

1t is the latest fad in society.
All the ladies are talking about tiddledy
winks and learning 10 play it.
In the East it has become a vertable
craze, aud all social affairs are considered
dull and insipid unless tiddledy winks is in
troduced.
Already it is the prime subject of gossip
among the ladies in this city, and the first
question the fair ones ask when they meet
is. How are you getting along with It'd
dledy winks? Have you learned it yet?"
Then they compare experiences as to the
best way Of playing tiddledy winks. 1t is
very simple game, easily learned, and yet
requires sufficient skill TO make it interest
ing. There are many reasons why il should
be the ruling winter game. New features
are being added to increase the compllca-
tions, and consequently the skill required.
One OF these features Is miniature tennis
court, but the original tiddledy winks will
be found sufficiently entertaining. The
complication can come later.
One, two, Il Zee or four persons may play
the game. 1t is all the more pleasing when
the players are divided into partners. 1t is
necessary to have a table, covered with
cloth. a round table is probably the best,
as 1t enables the players TO arrange them
selves more comfortably.
The implements are liddledies, winks,
wlnk-pot and counters A tiddledy is a
thin disk OF bone or ivory and about the
size OF twenty fve-cent piece. A wink
is disk OF the same material, but
smaller, being about the SIZE OF a ten-cent
piece. A wink-pot is little wooden YES
sci, like tiny bucket, with an opening the
size OF silver dollar, and about an inch
deep. There are little pads, somewhat re

Tickets Given Out for the Fenst
Christmas Day.
The chapel at Trinity Church, corner of
Post and Powell streets, was besieged by
newsboys yesterday afternoon and evening
for tickets for the dinner to be given them
by the members of the church on the after
noon of Christmas day. Rev. j. Saunders
Reed received the youthful applicants and
sent them away happy in the possession of
the coveted check for Christmas dinner.
One little fellow old. about 7years. did not
know he had any other name than that of
"Ardie. the newsboy." When asked his
name he said: They cali me Ardie, the
newsboy. and don't know if have auv
other name" Another boy gave his name
as "Cervantes," and did not know if his
forefather helped Don Quixote to stab I'M
offending wind-mills.
Rev. Mr.: Reed has already given six
Christmas dinners to newsboys and all have
been successful. He anticipates keeping the
seventh dinner up to the past standard
Already he has given out about 125 tickets
and expects 10 accommodate 500 applicants
before the feast is ready.
