were to vote for two men who We're
equally fit to be president, and one was TO

The vice-presidency has been treated too
often by party contention either as a con-

eminent man might quietly close his
career, or as a consolation prize to be

JULIA MORRISON ACQUITTED
She's Already on the Stage. SO she'll
Take TO the Platform.

Chattanooga, Tenn. Jan. 10-The trial
Of Julia Morrison James for the murder
of Frank Leidenhemer, of the Mr.. Plas-
ter of Paris" company, of which they
were leading man and lady, on the stage
of the Chattanooga opera house on the
night Of September %, ended at o'clock
this afternoon, when, after one ballot,
the jury returned a verdict of not guilty.
Miss Morrison, upon hearing the words
which insured her freedom, advanced to
the speakers platform and made most
dramatic speech to the court and jury.
She said:
II wish to thank you and the gentle
men of the jury and all who werr in
strumental in my acquittai, for your just
and generous decision. May God in His
mercy be ever as just to you and yours
as you have been to me today. AS for
the prosecution, I wish to say that
fully forgive them and bear them no NAL
ice for their strenuous efforts for my con-
viction.

When Miss Morrison had finished her
speech, which she had rendered in a dra-
matte style, Attorney General Donaldson
made a demand that she be held for car
rying a pistol, and the case was entered.
but no bail or other formal court recog-
milton was accorded the action
The verdict was wildly cheered by the

Enid Wants the Frisco and
Missouri Pacific.
FORMER FROM BLACKWELL
Other From KioWa, Kansas,on
Its Way East.

Mr. E. B. weatherby, one Of the leading
citizens of the progressive city Of Enid,
was in the city yesterday, and as Enid
has become one Of the cities of Oklahoma
which are figuring largely on railroads
Mr.. Weatherby was asked by a reporter
for the Eagle what the city Of Enid ex-
pected.
Enid" he replied, wants the Augusta
extension. which is to be built from HI
owa. Kansas, southeasterly into Oklano-
ma. The country traversed is abundantly
productive. 1t is not, as some suppose,
sand and grazing lands, but fine agri-
cultural section. The road which pierces
it will have one of the richest sections IN
the entire west tributary to it.
what railroad company do you expect
to build this line?" he was asked.
81 have always understood that the Mis-
souri, Pacific intended to build the Au-
gusta extension. In fact, up until the
rumors to the contrary which have come
I'D in the last two weeks, we thought
nothing else
Enid" Mr. Weatherby continued, "has
been prosperous without a number of rail-
roads. We have not been hungry after
railroads, but if railroads are coming into
the territory, we want our share Of them.
We desire an extension of the Frisco and
Blackwell particularly. The Frisco can
find unoccupied and rich territory lying
between Blackwell and Enid and, l be-
lieve, will soon extend down to our city
and probably on southwesterly to Waton-
ga and Arapahoe The Frisco is a town.
builder and a mighty good road for any
city to nave"
Mr.. Weatherby is a thorough Enid
boomer. He says that the town has pros
pered every day since its beginning. He
has been the last week in Guthrie and
Oklahoma City. He says that both are
good towns but the streets Of Enid are
buster than those of either of the cities
mentioned
Mr.. Weatherby said that he understood
the original plan of the Missouri Pacific
with the Augusta extension was to run it
to Enid, then either to Guthrie or Perry,
and from Guthrie or Perry east to Wag-
oner, in the Creek country.

MIGHTY UNLUCKY EQUINE
Horse That Was Apparently Born to
Meet Death by Violence.

Augusta, O. r., Jan. 10.-A valuable
horse belonging to Bonheur Bros, which
was injured last summer in an accident
and completely restored through Dr. W.
s. Miller's treatment, was run over by
the cars while in the care of DR.. Miller's
father at Neal, Kansas, in the absence
of the veterinary at Kansas City. The
horse broke out of the yard where he was
kept at night and ran across the railroad
in front of a train and was knocked off
the track. One leg was badly mangled by
the wheels. Crippled as it was, the horse
somehow got back to the lot leaving
bloody trail, and before morning fell from
the loss of blood. The horse was cut
up so bad that the father of DR.. Miller
had to have her shot. A claim for dam
ages has been put in. The horse was
Just ready to be sent here to Bonheur
Bros when the railroad accident occurred.
It seemed to be an unlucky equine and
destined to die q violent death.

THE STATE OF TRADE,
The Failures of May Prove Larger
Than Were Expected,

New York, June Or. q. Dun & Co.'s
weekly review Of trade says:
Failures in May prove Il little larger
than were expected a week ago. The
| commercial list embraces 047, with La
bilties Of S23.771,151, and only six
months of the past 80 have seen defaulted
liabilities as large. a single heavy bro
kerage failure accounted for more than
half the whole amount and another fol-
lowed with nearly 1000. 600 so that the
few failures of that nature were about
10 per cent Of the aggregate for the
month.
The adjournment Of congress after
useful session, the progress toward peace
in South Africa and the rapid adjustment
of prices here to more natural level all
tend to bring nearer the day Of greater
| activity. But that progress has not been
rapid, and the yielding of prices affects
many only as reaction, cutting off part
OF the profits supposed to have been &C.
cured. The impression grows also that
no extensive changes in business are now
probable until after the presidential cleo
ton, and the possibility of trouble in
China has at least as definite an influence
on American affairs as any change in
South Africa.

A PLEASANT SURPRISE.

After the regular meeting of the
IIiawatha Lodge, l. O. O. +. the
members were agreeably surprised by
the Rebekah Lodge who presented
the Lodge with a full new set Of
officers regalia, equal at least if not
better than is possessed by any odd
Fellows Lodge in the state. After
this refreshments were served and a
pleasant social evening was enjoyed.
The gratitude felt by the members of
Hiawatha Lodge towards their aux
Hilary for their thoughtfullncSs is
beyond expression.
During the meeting a communlca-
ton was read as an appeal from the
brother Odd Fellows suffering from
restitution in the Schotield mines in
Utah and also those who suffered loss
by the Ottawa fire. The Lodge vot-
ed to aid them.
