NAT GOODWIN

From the hundreds or applications
Tor choice sttings on the occasion or
the engagement of Mr.. N C. Goodwin
and Miss Maxine Elliott next Monday
evening at the Academy of Music, it is
easily evidenced that the event will
prove the most memorable in the an
nails OF local stage history. The desire
10 see MIR. Goodwin and Miss Elliott in
their latest success. Nathan Hale"
from the pen of Clyde Fitch, is unpre-
cedented. while the assurance that the
ton will be identical to that
seen during it's long run in New York
IS gratifying in the extreme. Mr.
fitch's play deals with n period in the
conntry's history. which has been lit
Tie explored by dramatists, |. e., the
revolutionary period. Nathan Hale. 1t
VIII be remembered, was the young
American who lost his life in the effort
to obtain information concerning the
British army in 1776. He was hanged
Az spy. and his memory is especially
cherished in New England where
statues and monuments were reared in
MS honor. Hale was a boyish school
master, Just such character as gives
Mr. Goodwin ample scope for dramatic
work. Miss Maxine Elliott will appear
as the schoolgirl sweetheart of Hale.

HUTCHINSON v. CANNON.

THE LAW OF OKLAHOMA. LIMIT

TEMPT OF COURT TO A FINE OF

MENT. DOES NOT LIMIT THE
POWER OF THE COURT TO EN-
FORCE ITS ORDER FOR THE
PAYMENT OF ALIMONY, BY I'M
PRISONING THE PARTY DIS
OBEYING THE ORDER UNTIL HE
COMPLIES WITH 1T.
[There is somewhat similar law as
to contempt in Virglnla.]
The facts sufficiently appear from
the opinion of the Court. The Court
says:
The sole question presented for de.
termination in this case is whether or
not the husband, being n party to an
action for divorce and almony. can
be imprisoned for a greater period
than ten days for the purpose of en-.
forcing a compliance with an order OF
the trial court, requiring him to nav
certain specified sum as alimony. af-
ter said party upon proper hearing
has been adjudged in contempt for a
by the applicant, and not denied by
respondent, that the former had been
imprisoned for a period of eleven full
days before filing his petition herein.
st. 1898. Sec. 454S, provides that
In an action for divorce and
alimony the Court may make and en-
force by attachment such order to
restrain the disposition of the prop
erty Cor for the use thereof .
as may be right and proper" The
question thus presented Is whether or
not the courts of this territory have
the power to enforce their orders for
the payment OF alimony and suit money
In the classes Of cases designated in
SAID section 454S, for a fine of $50 and
imprisonment for ten days will in
many cases be ineffective to compel
compliance with such orders. and If
these orders cannot be enforced by
attachment and Imprisonment as for
contempt Of court. they cannot be en-
forced az all, for the reason that no
otner means of enforcement is pro-
Vided. That such power has almost (f
not quite) universally been conceded to

OCCURS RIGHT IN THE HEART OF NEW LEW
 SEVILLE, ARK.
PATTON AGAINST HARPER
Both Empty Their Revolvers But Only One Shot Takes
 Effect.

From we'll known and popular Cotton Belt employe, who was wis itor at New Lewisville Tuesday af- ternoon, we learn of duel which occurred in the heart of that town early Tuesday morning.
 The participants in the tragedy were Berry Patton, New Lewis vile merchant, and T. M. Harper, a telegraph operator for the Cotton Belt road at that place. Harper worked at the Cotton Belt office as telegrapher in this city for several months and is quite we'll known here.
 We have been informed that the shooting scrape was the result of some uncalled-for remarks, which Patton claimed Harper had made about his daughter, but when &C., cused Of it Harper blankly denied it. Monday night Patton went to Har- per's office at the station and with out warning, deliberately jumped upon him and fight, in which Pat ton was worsted, was the result. Several people say Patton was drunk when he entered the office.
 sThe next, Tuesday, morning Pat ton waited for Harper on his usual route to the office, When Harper came up he opened fire upon him. Harper claims he heard that Patton had threatened to kill him and was we'll prepared. When Patten fired the fipst shot, Harper produced his siv-shooter and responded to the salute. They stood on the sidewalk shooting at each other for fully two minutes and when both guns had been emptied. and the smoke ofathe sudden battle cleared away, Patton was found lying in pool of blood and Harper standing nearby re- loading his weapon. Only one of the eight or ten shots fired took effect. That one entered Patton's body just below the right nipple.
 The attending physicians say PatGon's recovery is very doubtful as the wound is a dangerous one. Patton has a family and is popular with the people of that section of the state. Although Harper was entirely justl6able in his actions, the sympathy is said to be with Patton. Harper has many friends in both telegraph and railroad CIT cles who will regret very much to learn of bis trouble. He was law abiding and peaceful during his residence in this city.
