THE DECISION.
The Winner Secured Thirty Dollars In
Cash.

The judges OF the contest were as fol-
lows;
On composition and thought--Rev. Hal
ley, Oklahoma City; Rev. Humphrey,
Guthrie; DIR. Hatchett, Fl Reno. On
delivery-Capt. } . j. 5. Hassler Enid; #.

The awards were as follows, the winner
receiving $50.
Jesse Heney, Norman, first; Ruby
Howard, Edmond, second; Emma Swope.
saltwater, third; Minnie Davis, King
fisher, fourth
A general kick followed the announce
ment OF the decisions, and intimatious
were made that at least one OF the judges
was actuated by selfish motives in voting
for Norman. While Hehey's effort was
good, the intimation was made by both
Edmond and Kinghsher people that he
was far distanced by Miss Swope Of
saltwater, on all points, despite the fact
that she was handicapped by Hetey,
who is preacher and has participated In
several contests. The Leader simply
gives these rumors for what they are
worth, this paper having no desire 70
take sides and thereby precipitate un-
pleasautness.

RooseveIt's Popularity.

Boston, Nov. f4.--What is taken to be testimonial to the popularity of Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, governor elect of New York, unexpected by those in charge of the proceeding, was given here to-day, when the ticket for the Lowell institute free course of lectures were distributed at the Cadets armory. Colonel Roosevelt is to deliver a lecture in the course. and this morning 5000 people besieged the armory on Colum- bus avenue. The crowd began to gath CT as early as o'clock At o'clock a double line extended completely around the arnory, and the crowd con- tinued to increase even up to the time the doors closed. indicating that all the tickets had been given out. It took only about twenty-five minutes after the distribution of tickets was begun at 10 o'clock to exhaust the supply which was limited to between 900 and 1,000. When the doors were closed fully 4.000 people were left standing in line unpro- vided with tickets. They dispersed with expressions of disappointment when assured that no more tickets were available.

LIABILITIEs S1,:0O,O
Coal Companies Operating fih Ohio Put
 Into Hands of Receiver.

Cincinnati. Nov 14.-The Turney x
 Jones Coal Go. of Columbus, O., and
 the Pelna & Ohio Fuel Co. of St. Paul,
 with officers in Chicago, were to-day,
 by the federal court, put into the hands
 of the Security and Title company of
 Chicago as receivers. These companies
 are among the largest that ever oper-
 ated in the Ohio coal fields. Their
 troubles commenced in the summer of 1897 with the great coal strike. They
 had large contracts to fill in the north west and were unable to get coal until late in the summer and then at a high price and with very high lake freight rates. The liabilities will amount to $1, 100000 The officers of the companies state that they will pay the liabilities in full if the assets are carefully ham, dled The two companies are owned by the same parties, mostly by H. D. Tur- ney of Columbus and John $. Jones of Chicago, and had to stand or fall to- gether. The mines of these companies furnished about half of the coal ton mage for the Columbus, Sandusl1y and Hooking railroad and the future of that
 property depends largely on what is done by the receivers of the coal conn panies.

The Paris Fair.

Washington, Nov. 14-Ferdinand w. Peck, commissioner general of the United States to the Paris exposition, who arrived in Washington last night, called upon President Mckinley and gave him a brief account of what had been accomplished at Paris. The pres ident cordially greeted MT. Peck and congratulated him upon the great sue cess of his efforts. President Faure of France and M. Brisson, the late prime minister, had charged MT. Peck to con- vey to President Mckinley their high est regards, and in doing so Mir. Peck spoke of the very many kindnesses which had been shown him by these distinguished F'renchmen. They aided him in securing valuable concessions and expressed the greatest friendship for the United States. Mir. Peck said that the intention of this country to erect a monument to Lafayette in Paris was pleasing to the French peo- pie and had gone far to help him in his work. MT. Peck left for New York tonight.

VEST UTPoINTS SMITH.
But Owing to an Understanding the
 Bout is Called n Draw.

Bridgeport, Nov. 14.-The Horizon Athletic club opened it's boxing car- nivals in this city tonight with "Iys- terious" Billy Smith and Tommy West as the stellar attractions They were matched for twenty rounds at catch weights, but despite the fact that West clearly outpointed his opponent on ac- count of a mutual agreement that if they both went the limit there would be no decision, Refere Sam Austin was obliged to declare it a draw.
 West outweighted Smith fully ten pounds, though the latter had the ad- vantage in height and reach. Smith put up good, strong fight, but was wild in his swings, while on the other hand West was cool and confident throughout the entire bout. Notwith- standing that Smith had been clearly outpointed in the first half of the bout there was money offered on him after the tenth round, 100 to SO, though West was slight favorite before the bout opened. Smiths work was not as clean in the breaks as his opponents, and his continual hitting in the clinches called forth frequent misses from the specta- tors West drew first blood in the sec ond round, and in the sixth just mar rowly missed putting Smith out by a bang on the jaw. Again in the fifteenth round he closed Smiths eye with a left hook and followed it up by landing thrice in quick succession on the injur- ed optic. Throughout the bout Smith did most of the rushing, but he was in- variably blocked. In the nineteenth round West landed on the jaw so effec- lively that Smith was forced to the ropes, and a corking left and some strong body blows were expected to set tie the event. but the gong interposed There was a mix-up in, the final round and again West landed just as the bell rang. It was throughout one of the fastest bouts ever witnessed in this city.

 Southport, England, Nov. 14.-The visit to this place to-day of Lord and Lady Curzon led to a remarkable den- onstration of good will for his lordship. who has represented this division in parliament since 1895. All the city functlonaries and the county bodies participated in it, the streets were dec- orated with flags and crowded with people. The lady mayoress presented Lady Curzon with a bouquet of orchids in silver holder and with a ribbon attached to it upon which was in- scribed in gold letters Presented by the lady mayoress of Southport on be- half of the people, Lord and Lady Curzon afterwards held a reception. Prominent among the decorations were trophies representing the Union Jack, the Stars and Stripes and the Star of India entwined. At a later function Sir William Forwood presided He said that never had there been a vice. roy of India appointed who was so heartily approved by the entire nation. Sir William added that the charm and refinement of Lady Curzon. who is an American lady, will adorn the vice regal court. After the presentation of a eulogistic address from the conser- vative association of Southport and q handsome and massive silver bowl weighing over 200 ounces and a pair of gold spurs, Lord Curzon made a speech during which he formally bade farewell to his constituents.

4 NEGRO WOMAN SHOT.
Report That Her House Was Fired Into
 by n Passing Crowd.

Greenwood, s. G., Nov. 14.-A tele- phone message received here tonight says a negro woman was shot near Pine Grove church by a party of white men who were on their way here. No particulars are obtainable except that her house was fired into by a passing crowd and that one ball struck her in the abdomen. A message from Troy states that Kennedy McCaston and a negro on his place in Abbeville county had Q personal difficulty in which the negro shot McCaston in the face with a shotgun. The negro was pursued to Abbeville, where he was caught and jailed. There is no fear of his being lynched News comes from Verdery that John Fell had shot negro near that place while engaged in personal difficulty. None of the lawlessness re- ported to-day. except the shooting ot the women, had the remotest connec- ton with the Phoenix riot.

General Breck- enridge's testimony dealt with condi- tions at Camp Thomas and he took occasion to say that but for the change that was made previous to the war re- quiring inspector generals in the field to report to the adjutant general in stead of the inspector general the con dition of the camps now being develop ed by the commission would have been developed three months ago. Governor Woodbury has returned from Vermont and sat at the commission.

At the Yale observatory last night the observers under the direction of Dr. William l.. Elkin, the astronomer, kept a close watch for the expect ed meteroric shower but were some- what disappointed as up to 1 o'clock only thirty meteors had been seen. Eight cameras were in position and each of these were focused on a differ ent sections of the sky In, addition to these cameras, four wereFin position in Hamden near the Methodist church in a little shanty built by the observa- tory astronomers. These four were in charge of Dr. Chase. It was stated last night at the observatory that the maximum of the shower had not occur red last night and it could not be as certained definitely whether or not the maximum had already occurred. as it is impossible to predict these me teoric showers within half a day. Dr. Elkins was assisted last night by Mr. Lewis of Ansonia. The observations began last Saturday night and will be continued tonight and possibly We'd nesday night. The photographs of me teors taken last night will not be de- veloped for several days. A specially constructed apparatus was used for taking the photographs.
