BEHIND CLOSED Doors.


Night with Townslte commissioners.
A meeting was held last night
in the officers of the townsite COM
mission in the Wheeler building,
which might be elassed under the
head of a secret caucus, inasmueh
as newspaper men and others .oi
that ilk were kindly requested to
retire, and the doors were locked.
Within this sanctum were the au.
gust personages of j. George
Wright, Indian inspector of the
Indian Territory; and G. A. Ward,
chief of the Indian Territory divis-
ion Of the bureau of Indian affairs
from Washington; Col. s. N. John
son of hetownsite commission and
staff; and also a committee from
the city council, consisting of Lee,
Cruce, Mike German, A. Eddie
man and Sam Noble; a committee
from the Commercial Club consist
ing of W. F. Bowman, A. NJ.
Burch and R. w. Randol, and
probably two other persons.
The business which brought
Messrs. Wright and Ward to our
city was fully stated in yesterdays
ARDMoRElTE.
AS is well known to our people,
there exists difference of opinion
regarding what shall be the cor
porate limits of Ardmore.
1t was to effect an .amicable set
tlement of this vexed question, if
such conclusion could be reached.
that this meeting was billed for.
Mr.. Wright and Mr.. Ward both
were very interested and attentive
parties throughout the session.
The bounds of the incorporated
city of Ardmore were spread be-
fore the council. A mutual agree
ment was manifest that the wing
of the Watkins, addition should re-
main as established by the court.
1t was also mutually agreed that the
large orchard of T. N. Coleman on
the north remain outside the city
limits. Also that 160 acres in the
southeast corner of the limits re-
main inside the corporate boundary,
bnt owing to the broken and cut
up condition Of the land it may re
main unplatted.
1t was also agreed that the post
oak ridge south of the limits, con-
tanning ninety-seven acres, or close
thereto. be included as in the cor
porate limits of the city.
A diversion came however, when
the plat of about forty acres, con-
tanning a portion of the fruit tree
nursery and the stock pen and wa
ter tanks of the Ardmore Oil and
Milling company in the south part
of the city, was reached.
This particular spot seems to
have been the bone of contention
and really the objective cause of
this semi secret session, (for it has
leaked.
1t was plainly seen that the city
was in favor of retaining this part
of terra firma within its corporate
limits es recorded in the United
States court.
A vote of the two committees
was taken which showed that Lee
Cruce of the city council commit
tee, and A. NJ. Burch of the Com
mercial Club committee stood in
favor of leaving the disputed prop
erty out, to which all the others
protested.
AS a means of having an unbias-
ed decision on the matter, Mr..
Wright suggested, and asked that
the various parties or committees

MARGARET'S LOVER.

Q Q Q Q Q

Mrs. Morris looked puzzled. 81 may
have met him that afternoon, and he
may have walked part of the way home
with me, but-why, Margaretw
For the girl had thrown herself down
beside her aunt and, with her face hid
den in the folds of Mrs. Morris gown,
was half sobbing and half weeping.
The older woman patted the girls
bowed head, while her face lit up with
sudden understanding.
The next time Margaret met the pro-
fessor she smiled on him so sweetly
that the poor man was bewildered.
They met frequently, and at Mar
garet's request the professor resumed
his calls. AT last he ventured once
more to tell her of his love, and this
time her reply must have been a favor
able one, for when the professor left,
some time later he walked as one who
had received crown. And so, per-
haps, he had, for a man can win no
better crown than the love of true
woman.-Boston Post.

army, only smaller. They have a use
far in advance of any mere long-dis-
tance eobservational purpose, for, though
the wake of submarine boat sunk
deeply in the water can only be traced
with difficulty from such an elevation
as that afforded by ship, both such
wake and the boat itself can be seen
with absolute and undertaking clear
ness from a captive balloon. This is
the result of a scientific and optical
law, and when ship balloons were first
put to the practical test in regard to
this matter, the results attained were
of the most surprising kind.
Even where the water is distinctly
cloudy, objects of much smaller kind
than a submarine boat, and painted Of
neutral color, could be seen from bal
loon with the utmost clearness at a
depth of five fathoms, or thirty feet,
though the surface was rough. No sub
marine boat could in the daytime get
within striking distance of a threaten
ed ship that had balloon without be-
ing observed.

Stamps Spread Consumption,

1t is stated by responsible medical
journal that a surgeon in the French
army has just discovered that stamp
collectors may he the means of dissem-
mating tuberculosis by means of the
stamps. \ man In his employ was a
great stamp collector and occupied his
spare time in fixing the stamps in al
buns or on sheets of gummed paper
for sale, moistening the stamps for the
purpose with his tongue.
Three hundred of the stamps We're
placed in sterilized water, and with
some of the water eight guinea pigs
were inoculated. Each died with char
acteristic tuberculosis LESSONS. Chill
dren, says the journal, should be warned
against placing any stamps near their
mouths in order to moisten them and
foreign stamps should be disinfected
in per cent. solution of carbolic
acid before adding them to collections.

JUST THE FORCE OF HABIT.
Illustration of How Completely One
Habit May Supplant Another,

ihDiI may ouDpluHt announcer.
'Uabit is curious thing" said Mr..
Joggleton, but the completeness with
which one habit can be supplanted by
another seems more curious still.
Il had chair that | had used for
years, and which, as l was firmly con-
vinced, was by long odds the most COM
Portable chair ever made. After break
fast, when | read the paper, used to
sit in that chair and after dinner at
night l settled down into it, with
cigar, in peace and happiness and
thought there never was chair that
combined so many good points as to
height and pitch of seat and slope of
back, and all that; had never seen a
chair that suited me so WELL
But one day this chair was tipped
over, or something or other happened to
it-I don't know what-but something
so serious that it was put out of COM
mission. With our usual conservative
slowness, we put off from day to day
and from week to week getting that
chair repaired, and, as matter of fact,
it was two or three years before we
had it fixed up and brought into use
again. Meanwhile, had singled out
another chair which l came commonly
to occupy. This didn't begin to be, at
first, so comfortable as the old one had
been, but gradually its Objectionable
points disappeared, and I'm blessed if
it didn't begin to develop good points
that l had never suspected in it, and l
came at last to look upon it as a very
comfortable sort of chair, indeed. But
at last the old chair, the good old chair
was fixed up again and brought back
into use, and the day it appeared |
looked forward to settling down in it
at night with all the old-time comfort.
But when, with all those pleasant
anticlpatiOns, l came to sit in it again
| did not find the pleasure that l had
expected; it was too high, or too low,
or the seat sloped too much, or some
thing-I don't know what; it wasn't
as it used to be-to me. l tried 1t once
or twice more after that and then gave
it up and went back to the new chair.
My new habit had become firmly fixed.
l liked the new chair better, and now,
as | settled down in it, its good points
were at once emphasized, and softened,
and rounded into completeness, and l
accepted it in full rs the chair of salts
flying comfort, and wondered as |
looked across ut the other what l ever
cOull have seen in IL TO make mo like
it so much.
