Thursday evening. April 18th. 1t is ap-
parently a play that will be equally
popular with the more highly educated
element of play goers. as with those
who only look for good entertainment
at the theatres. The former are said
to revel in the literary treat it offers,
and the latter in its stirring. moving
story. and its exciting episodes. It is
laid in one of the most interesting
periods of English history. and it is
said that the scenic production pro-
vided by Managers Wagenhals and
Kemper is n OF the most elaborate
seen on the stage in years. As for
the supporting company, it is doubtless
one of the strongest ever seen with
an American star. Reserved seat sale

Ira r. Hicks predicts that April will
be a storm month, with high winds
and violent and sudden alterations of
heat and cold, and 81 far his predic-
tions have been verified. He says
about the Sth and 9th there will be a
marked change to warm weather, with
a very low barometer and heavy rains,
followed by cold winds from the west
and north. Another storm period is
set for the 18th to the 18th, with vio-
lent electrical storms, hail, rain, and
dangerous winos.

FORCIBLE ADDRESS
Delivered Before the Commercial
Club by Judge Gill Last Night.

An address that was pregnant
with evidences of an anly,ioal
mind that had studied the com
meroial conditions Of this city
most thoroughly, was delivered
by Judge Joseph A. Gill before
the Commercial club Monday. In
his address the judge showed that
the bench is in close touch with
commercialism, and thorough
insight into ils needs is an essen
tial req uisite OF the well equipped
juust.
The speaker disclaimed any in.
tention Of delivering an address, :"
and explained that committee
from the club had invited him to
attend the meeting, yesterday aft.
ernoon, and make a few remarks
to the club members on the needs
of the city, that had come under
his notice.
In referring to the improve.
ments of the roads leading into
the city, and the bridging of the
neighbOring waterways, the speak

THUMP OF DRILL
Announces the Search Begun for
Water to Queneh the Public
Thirst.

At a point about ten feet east Of
the old band stand, at the inter
section of Wilson street and II.
linois avenue, the big steel drill Of
Brant & Ritts is boring downward
toward the great basin Of
pure water that underlies the city.
II is thought by the contractors
that within three weeks a crystal
flow will be reached which will
supply the public with an abund-
ance of the health-giving water.
1t is probable that the old band
stand will be torn down, as it i'm.
pedes traffic on two of the princi.
pal thoroughfares, and the drink
ing basin of the new well may also
be placed at the northeast corner
of Wilson street and Illinois ave.

councillors, J. B. Woodall, John

The returns from Beck pre-

suit, as 10 oas OF tho members Of
the council, bul does rot affect the
election Of the senator's.
From the returns at hand from
the various districts throughout
] the Cherokee nation the indica-
tioas are that the House and Sen
ate will be largely National on
joint ballet. IL is estimated by
some well posted in Cherokee pol
itics that there viii be a majority
of two thirds National. Many ol
the candidates elected on the
Downing ticket are really National
men and will not quit their old
party inclinations. But noIwith'
standing the council will b,

a large majority are in favor of
speedy settlement Of tribal ofairs

with it, including the complete
abolition Of tribal relations.

er drew striking illustration OF
the value Of such work. DRAWING
a comparison between the relative
value Of good roads and a new
railroad, he said, "a railroad es.
tablishes stations on both sides OF
you thereby distributing It's great
benefits. Good roads oontralize
the patronage of the surrounding
agricultural districts, within the
limits Of your own town"
In speaking Of the magnificent
water supply of this city, the
speaker reminded his hearers of
its value, by a reference to the
proposed bonding of Wogoner and
Muskogee, in large amounts to OBJ
tain a supply Of water equivalent
TO that wasted in this city.
The judge then touched on a
variety of subj ects, affecting the
welfare of Vihita, and made
strong impression by his logical
advice pertaining to the work un-
dertaken by the organization. An
interesting business meeting aud
general discussion ofthe committee
reports preceded the address. In

CONTESTED REWARD.
Capture Of Jim Rogers, the Outlaw,
Results In Civil Suit.

A suit filed by W. ]. Ingram
against ]. c. Nelson, Pies Childer,
Jim Mayes, AL Burton and Andy
Cox, members OF the Anti. Horse
Thief association, to recover the
sum Of $4,000 alleged to have
been offered as a reward for the
capture Of Jim Rogers, the out.
law, was heard before jury in
Commissioner Stanfeld's court
Tuesday, and a verdict for 500
returned in favor Of the plaintiff.
A similar suit filed by the same
plaintiff against L. R. Shreck, re.
suited in a verdict in favor OF the
defendant. The plaintiff alleged
in his bill that the defendants had
personally offered a reward of the
contested amount for the appre-
hension OF the notorious outlaw,
and that l.. r. Shreck had guar
anteed ils payment. He further
stated that it was through his ef-
forts that the capture was accom-
plished, and that the defendants
had refused to pay the promised d
amount.

to dismiss the case, on the
ground that "the jury in COM

sioner Stanheld, who was die
posed to dismiss the case sgainst
Shreck decided tbat the court had
no authority to dismiss it, and
oyeuuled the motion Of Mr.. Korn-
egay. This is the first time that
the point has ever been raised in
the commissioner court in this
city, and created a good deal Of
discussion among the legal fra
teinity.

Whatever difference of opinion
there may have been among the
people of Vinita with reference to
the place the public artesian well
is to be drilled, the matter should
now be considered settled and the
incident closed, inasmuch as the
council, in it's wisdom, has selected
the place and closed the contract.
The question should not again be
reopened to satisfy the caprice of
any one.

The election throughout the
Cherokee nation Monday was the
1uietest in recent years. There
was, however, a seriousness and
an earnesiness manifested that
has not been noted in other elec.
tions. The Cherokee people have
begun to realize the gravity Of the
selection, but the chances are
they have awakened too late.

A great deal lie being said and
written about the powerlessness
of the Cherokee national council
to act without the sanction Of the
president of the United States.
This is being used by some who
speak without wisdom, for while
all the acts Of the national ooun-
Gil may be vetoed, it is neSerthe-
less true the Chefokees can, and
have always taken a hand at the
vetoing business. The treaty
voted down last April could not
become a law without a majority
Of the voters Of the Cherokee ma
ton consented to il. That was
one instance where the Cherokee
nation vetoed an act OF congress.

The president may veto Chero-

no settlement OF this estate can be

1t is a mistake to assume that a
local newspaper should print all
the scandalous things that are
dragged into the courts. Many
things occur every day that ought
not be printed and placed before
the readers Of a local newspaper.

tain is made up in large measure
of women and children and goes
