NOW WHO IS TTY

Just two weeks and four days
from today--June 1.-the DEM
ocrats will hold their convention
in Ardmore. AT this convention
the best representative men should
be selected; men who possess the
ability to make themselvs heard II
necessary. Some are aspiring for
honors in this convention, we have
grave doubts if they could tell
their names in such represent
alive body if called on. No one
will question their sincerity for
the good OF the party, but we
question their ability to represent
the party. Select men who will
be known and if necessary heard
in this convention. We want the
people of the United States to
know more about the brilliant
intellects now in the confines OF
the Indian Territory and the
Kansas City national democratic
convention lie one OF the best
places for an introduction. II we
need nothing more than dummies,
we could have filled the places
from some sheeny store in that
city and saved all this meeting Of
clubs and passing and printing OF
resolutions.
One man, however, Preston S.
DaVis-who is a candidate for
delesate-at-large, is one TO select
at the Ardmore convention. In
the convention hall, June IL,
every aspirant should be called
out before the balloting, and if
they can't any more than get up
and stammer out tnat tney are
'loyal to the principles enunciated
in the Chicago platform let them
stay at home, regardless of all
past promises and pledges. If they
are as sincere as they profess tor
the cause Of democracy they have
no better way Of showing it than
to turn over their clubs endorse
ments and not attempt to secure a
place they are perfectly incom-
petent to fill. One man especially
in this part of the territory has
been working hard for the en-

FRILLs OF FASHION.
Materials and Trimmings That AFRO
Seen In the Latest Wraps
and Gowns.

Capes made of lace net, applique
guipure of silk or cloth, and plain silk
embroidered with jet and finished
with frills of chiffon and long scarf
ends which tie in front, are q decided
feature of the new wraps shown in
the department stores, despite the
fact that foreign fashion budgets fur
nish contradiction to the effect that
capes are entirely out of the race.
1t is said, reports the New York Sun,
that they are to be superseded by
coats with flowing sleeves, but in any
case both kinds of garments are set
forth as new with equally good rea-
sons. There is cape or wrap which
for evening wear is quite novel, made
Of lowered white crepe de chine.
Long straight breadths are shirred
into shape around the shoulders, the
shirring being fully ~ inches deep,
and above this is round hoodshaped
collar outlining the shoulders below
a narrow yoke of tucked silk. Silk
fringe dlnishes the edge which falls
half way between the waist and the
knee. Long coats with silk bands
stitched on lace net in short diagonal
lines. forming the entire upper por-
ton are shown among the novelties,
and whatever kind of garment you
look for beyond simple cloth jacket,
exhibits all the seasons proclivities
for elaboration in trimming and gen
eral detail.
Cheyiot in all the pale tints as well
as dark shades OF blue and gray is the
popular material for tailor gowns.
Lace fiouncings OF renaissance and
Venetian, as well as other kinds OF
lace, come ell ready shaped in the
circular form, fitting the cut OF the
skirt perfectly.
Lace. tulle, chiffon and lace straw
are prominent features OF the new
millinery. Toques made entirely OF
lace over chiffon and completed with
q bow Of black velvet or a bunch OF
flowers are among the prettiest hats
in sight. Pure white satin, finished
straws, almost transparent, are very
much in evidence.
The old-fashioned blonde lace with
pattern scattered over it is revived
again for wells.
The noteworthy feature of the
change in hair dressing is the less ag-
gressive pompadour, the cart-wheel
variety having been discarded entire
" by those who profess to be in the
fashion at all. The hair is puffed out
at the sides in the softest manner
and arranged much fatter on top.
Sometimes there is a suggestion Of
part at one side, and the hair is car
ried carelessly across the forehead in
a curve.
A novelty in dress trimming is beada
ed leather of a red-brown tint. Il
comes in bands and reyerse-shaped
pieces dotted quite closely all ever
between the two rows Of stitching
which finish the edge.
silk skirts with silk jersey yoke tops
which cling closely to the figure are
one Of the desirable novelties. And
then there are China silk waists in all
colors prettily trimmed with lace.
White gloves. except with black and
white costumes, nre not worn so much
as the varied tints Of fawn, biscuit,
nickel gray. cream. lilac and a green
ish gray.

ton.
The friends of Hon. ]. C. HeinleIn, in
Belmont county, and especially those in
Pease township. are his enthusiastic
supporters for delegate to the national
Republican convention at Philadelphia.
Before the meeting of the county COM
mlttee recently, Senator Archer was
mentioned in this connection by some Of
his friends, but the victory of the Helm
Iein forces in the committee was in
strumental in causing the withdrawal
OF Senator Archer's name. At the COM
mIttee meeting, 1t will be remembered,
Mr.. Heinlein's friends won out by n
vote OF six to five, and he was given the
privilege of naming Be}mont's deiega-
ton to the congressional convention at
Bellaire, which selects two delegates
and two alternates to the Philadelphia
convention. After the committee meet
ing 1t was supposed there would DC no
opposition to Mr.. Helnleln, but this
week the name of Mr.. G. e. Bradheld.
of Raruesville, has been sprung. The
friends of Heinlein assert that Brad
field will BIZ unable to secure n majority
of the delegation from Warren town
ship (Barnesvllle), and for that reason
do not believe his candidacy will be
formidable.
The Intelligencer has already spoken
of Mr.. Bradneld's fitness for the honor
of representing the district at PhiIadel-
phla. In Justice to Mr.. Helnleln 1t can
be stated that he IS just as worthy from
every point of view; 1t is generally con-
ceded that he would honor himself and

OF Words That verged closely t.

The hearing of Elsie Gray and Jack

show OF hostilities The actors were a

Of guardians of the peace the cement
floor might have been decked with a

tending with loud and angry words and
the echoes floated far out from the
massive brick building and filtered
through the barred windows to the
peaceful street below. Pedestrians
ploddins through the snow looked up
and small boy stood ready at near
by FIRE alarm box.
The penned-up prisoners exulted over
the prospect. Their eyes gladdened
and their pulses tlngled with the de-
light of expectancy But the clash was

Two well known characters in police
circles are Elsie Gray and Jack For

Waterman, at his pharmacy at the
corner OF Market and Eleventh streets,
and later attempted to get s. more,
Forsythe representing himself as a
drummer for Bremen & Mabls. On a
warrant sworn out before Squire Rog-
ers. they were charged with obtaining
money under false pretenses, and at
the conclusion of their hearing yester-
day afternoon they were held for the
grand jury, bond in each case being
$500, which neither could furnish.
Then It was that the fun began

Mr.. Boyce evidently did not eaten
what the squire said. for in an instant
he said, with some feeling: Whats
that?" And advancing toward the JUS

men losing their temper and saying
sundry unkind things to each other to

naliy words were unequal to the occa-
sion. wheraupon Tailor Mccormick and
Prosecuting Attorney Meyer rushed
between the two men thus avertIng ser

filed out and the iron doors were swung
to.
