INTERESTING TO BRIDES.
They Need NOT Necessarily BE Good
Looking.

They Need NOT Necessarily BE Good
Looking.
In selecting bridesmaids" said a
young woman who has recently accom-
plished that difficult task for her COM
ing wedding. "it is not beauty that
counts SO much as style and carriage.
Most brides take great deal Of pride in
their bridesmaids' costumes and want
them to show to the best advantage.
1t is very important that bridesmaid
should walk well. The wedding march
es are more suited to grand opera
stages than church sisles. and while
Elsa's or Lucia's attendants can walk
gracefully to such music, the most
graceful Of girls is apt to sway and
falter trying to keep time and step
with the same strains. The beauty
Of a faultless s-ock and the stateliness
Of picture hat vanish when the wear
er is awkward and obviously III at
ease. The bride herself is helped by
her long train. her dropping head. and
the leaning on her fathers arm be-
fore and on her husbands after the
ceremony. but the bridesmaid wears
short gown. carries her head erect,
walks up and down beside another
girl, and so has her own grace alone
to depend upon. A girl who walks
well. whose head is wen poised on her
shoulders, and whose hair arranges
well makes . good appearance as 4

PRAYER meetings are often held in the
underground galleries of Great Brit
aims colliery districts, but there is
probably only one mine where an
apartment has been excayated and set
aside exclusively as place of worship.
This strange sanctuary is to be found
in the Myndd Newydd Colliery, about
three miles out Of the town OF Swan
sea. The underground chapel dates
hack for more than half q century, and
every morning since its Inauguration
the workers in the coIliery have as
sembled together in this remarkable
and novel edifiee to worship God. The
chapel is situated close to the bottom
Of the shaft, SO that the miners. on de-
scending the pit. can go to worship
before they proceed to their various
stations. The apartment Is strangely
lacking In ornamentation and adorn-
ment. The pillars and the beams
which support the roof are Of rough
wood. and a disused coal trolley turned
on end. does duty IS pulpit. The
only light In the sanctuary is given
by a Davy safety lamp hung by q
rope from the ceiling. The miners sit
upon rough wooden forms placed
across the chapel from side to side. and

New rerrilary-
The coney Island Company has been
laying low for some time. Not much
has been heard OF II since the close OF
its last successful season But the
members Of the company have not
been idle In fact. Immediately fol-
loving the close OF the season they
began preparing for this season, and
many OF their arrangements have been
already completed. Last week the
company revealed It's imperialistic
sentiments by acquiring at one fell
sKcop large area Of new territory.
They purchased a large farm contain
ing fifty acres. adjoining and just east

beautifully. being on a plane with the

Of circuses, for baseball grounds, for

AMER dinner the talk ran upon the
claims made BY the new woman for
the ballot and higher wages The old
doctor listened in silence awhile, and
then said:
Il have nothing to say as to wom-
ans rights. but ! have an opinion as
to the way in which she should urge
them. Let me recall one or two facts.
-Four or five years ago there was a
fight between some Pennsylvania cap
italists and their hands, who struck

laborers. Hungarians and Poles, ranged
themselves on the river bank and at-
tackled the police force, who we're land

side, but their method Of fighting was
so brutal that they outraged the pub

Profit of Iaiior-Made Dresses
From the Chicago Daily News: If
1t takes twenty yards OF cloth at $l.50

required in the making takes one man

much will the dress cost" The prob
lem is very simple. But now comes
President Jabkowsk of the Ladies
Tailors' Union and declares that the
answer is different. The true answer,
as every weman who wears tailor
made suits knows. is SIS. President
Jabkowski, however, declares it Is in
reality but $44 And so convinced is
he and his union with him of the cor
rectness of his solution that they pro-

the discrepancy was explained very

THE QUESTION OF THE HOUR

The esteemed Muekogee PnOe-
nix this week prints labored ar
ticle Of considerable length, to
prove that the laws anent the in
PRODUCTION and sale OF intoxicating
liquors in the territory are fail
ure. The article starts ont with the
somewhat paradoxical statement
that the Phoenix is great temper
ance paper, but believes that il
would be blessing to the Indian
Territory if the laws prohibiting
the sale Of intoxicating liquor in
the territory were wiped from the
statute books. The Phoenix's
line Of argument is the same used
everywhere by the saloon element,
that saloons are a necessary evil,
and ought to be licensed. There
is nothing in that kind of argu-
ment, and it comes from the ene-
my always, and is the miserable
subterfuge of officers of the law
VINO refuse to do their duty. AS
a proof that the law can be en-
forced, we cite the case of our own
city. The prohibitary laws are
enforced here to the effective ex-
clusion of even the mist joints.
The man who undertakes 10 vio-
late the liquor law here does SO at
his peril. and it ought to be SO at
Muskogee. at wagner, and every
where that the jurisdiction OF the
court reaches. The government
ofthe United States is big enough
and strong enough TO enforce its
laws in all the domain Of its courts,
and The claim that the officers are
powerless here is not true. The
United States government is send
ing armies and ravies to the meth
ermost side of the globe to enforce
its edicts and to uphold its laws
and maintain the respect of nations
of the earth, yet here in the In
dian Territory our officers are
throwing up their hands and de-
daring that the laws are impossi-
BILE OF enforcement. If the laws
are to be openly de6ed and tramp
eled under foot by few whiskey
men in the territory what is to be
expected in the Philippines. II

DEAR SIR
Notice IL hereby given that after

The purpose OF this move on the part
OF our business men is not TO shut of
credit Ia the men who are employed
about here or to force any mining com.
pany or any other concern that en-.
ploys labor TO do their bidding but
rather TO bring the business OF this To-
cality somewhere near cash basis. the
only one upon which business ought To
be done. During the five years Just
passed, there was some excuse for he long
credits hat were extended. Money was
scarce and, IN many instances, good,
honest, Woodworking citizens could not
pay their bills punctually because they
were without money or the chance to
earn il. Such is not the case now.
There is more work than there are men
TO do the work. Wages are good and II
IL time that the merchants who have
borne the brunt OF the hard times should
have a breathing spell. We believe that
| the mining companies will appreciate
the good service done them during the
dark days OF the past, when the men IN
their employ were carried several
months 10y our business men, and that
they will respond TO this agreement by
helping the merchants out.
TIE DIAMOND DRILL Is particularly
pleased To see our business men gct to-
gether and work in unison. Where there
there IL no harmony among business

4 sad Accident.

On last Friday afternoon J. X. Swan
ner, mechanic who was working on
the new Cassidy cottage being erected
at the west end of Cherokee street by
Contractor Magee, fell from a scaffold
about IA feet and received injuries
from which he is not likely to recover.
DIR. johnson, who was called to his re-
lief, discovered that his spine was
fractured, producing paralysis of the
lower limbs, and that his chest was al
so seriously crushed.
Swanner came here from Jefferson
county with his family about a week
before the accident and rented the lit
tie cottage next door to the Magee
House, where he was carried on u litter
by his fellow workmen as soon as hurt.
He has a wife and four dependant
demented and utterly helpless. The
three younger children, all girls. are
aged about s, 6 and A. respectively.
The family is in very poor and destitu-
te circumstances, and Monday their
condition was pitiable indeed. At that
time the father lay in an almost dying
condition from his injuries, the mother
was Frustrated with illness and grief,
and the afflicted child lay in helpless
condition near by, unable to even
slightly comprehend the distressing
condition by which all were surround
ed.
Mr.. and Mrs. S. f. Magee, Mrs.
Isaac Cope, the Kings Daughters and
other good Samaritans have ministered
to the poor unfortunates in their neces-
sity and distress, with true Christian
charity, contributing all they could to
their relief. Verify, sadder case of
human suffering has not come to our
knowledge in this com munity.
