Will Appear Here.

Mrs. Bertha Kunz Baker is consid- cred by many to be the best woman reader in this country. Artists often deserve praise as much for what they leave undone as for what they do, and one of the most pleasing character istics of Mrs. Bakers work is it's ab- sence of opportunities She makes no unnecessary gestures; she employs no stage tricks; she has no manner isms. Throughout her work an impress sion is given of great dramatic force
 but it is force controlled and directed
 subsorVient to the artistic effect, never oyerpoWering and destroying it. Her rendition is first of an intellectual rendition, in which no least thought of the author is slHrred over 10 give scope for greater clHcutonar4 dis play; yet the underlying current if passion and feeling is there. and thrills you more by very contrast with the simplicity of her manner

Defining Good Government.

National prosperity is thus defined by an ancient Chinese authority: When the sword is rusty, the blow is bright, the prisons empty, the grana- ries full, the steps of the temple worn down and those of the law courts grass grown, when doctors go afoot. the bakers on horseback and the men of letters drive in their own carriages, then the empire is well governed"

POLITICAL CIRCLES EXCITED
Report Was Out That Appointments
WOuid be Aade

Guthrie. O. T., June 1a.-There has beer
much agitation among a number OF th'
! territorial Office holders who were ap
pointed by Governor Barnes owing to the
! fact that It was runored here persistently
| last night that Governor Jenkics voult
/ make = number Of appointments before
leaving for Washington. 1t was estimat,
ed that he would make the appointments
| last night but when no appointment came
out when he left for Newkirk on his way
the Alva Normal school, it relieved the
minds Of the territorial officers.
The rumors were that the coal oil III
spector, attorney general, treasurer and
possibly the auditor would be named by
Governor Jenkins and the commissions
take effect the day that the term of of
fee Is up with the other men now in
oface. Amos Ewings commission for the
tVo years Is up on the 26th OF this month
and the commissions OF the other men
are up nearly the same time with the ex-
ceptioz OF Baxter. who has never been
confirmed by the assembly and who was
appointed to succeed hopkins, who was
turned down by the territorial legislature.
Governor Jenkins win be in the city
again on Saturday, returning on the az
ternoon train. He Will leave on the even
ing train north for Washington, it is un-
derstood, and viii not be back for ten
days or a couple Of weeks.
Those who are close to Governor Jen-
kins have the impression that these ap-
pointments may not be announced until
the governors return from Washington.
That seems TO be the general impression
among the politicians, but in spite Of
these Announcements from jenkins s.
friends il is not hard 10 find rumor
floating that the appointments are to be
made soon.
Nothing more has been heard about the
appointment OF coal OF inspector. but it
is understood, and has been for some
time. that the governor had decided to
appoint Elmer T. Brown Of Oklahoma
City and that others need not apply. Jafe
Roberts Of Kingfsher IS supposed TO be
the man for attorney general to succeed
Judge Strang. This appointment has
been looked for. and It was expected
that it would come out before this time

/ vancement All Of the western state:
and territories viii be largely represented
in this meeting and matters of impor-
lance and interest to all OF the people ot
| the territory VIII be discussed and acted
! upon. Governor jenkins, Ex-Governor
: Seay, is one of the vice presidents Of the
/ congress; J. ". AIceNaI OF Guthrie, and
W H. Mead Of Kingfsher. who are mem
/ bers Of the executive committee from this
/ territory, are all taking great interest
/ in the congress and working to secure a
large representation from Oklahoma.
The official call Of the convention
gives the following representation:
THE governor Of each state or terri
tory may appoint ten delegates.
THE mayor Of each city one delegate
and one additional delegate for each five
thousand inhabitants. provided, however,
that no city shall have more than ten
delegates.
Each county may appoint one delegate
through its executive officer.
Every business organization one dele
gate for every fifty members, provided,
however. that no such organization shall
have more than ten delegates.
Governors of states and territories,
members Of the United States congress
and ex-presidents Of this congress are ex-
of11cio delegates, with all privileges of
delegates except those OF voting.
''The governor viii name his delegates
in a day or two, and the mayor Of each
city IN the territory, the county commits
sioners. and presidents Of business or
carnations. should at once take action
and name their representatives, select
ing men Of prominence and standing who
will agree 10 attend the congress. As
fast as the delegates are appointed their
names and addresses should be sent to
Arthur P Francis secretary OF the
Mississippi Congress, Cripple
Greek. Colorado, and also to W. II. Mead,
Kingfsher. o. T. It is the earnest wish
Of the gentlemen working I'D the inter
est in this congress to have enough dele
gates from Oklahoma to 81 at least one
car, and if possible two. and that all may
go in a body, decorating the car with
banners and agriculture products which
win be OF great benefit to the territory in
the way Of an advertisement, and attract
much attention at the congress from the
prominent men there from all parts Of the |
nation.
THE newspapers in each county in the !
should take Up this matter and |
create an interest so that not a single /
county shall be unrepresented in the con-
gress. The sending Of & large delegation /
a special car would have q /
tendency to attract the attention OF the |
congress to Oklahoma and the delegates /
might be able to secure the next meeting /
for some point in the territory. which /
would be of untold benefit to our agricul- /
tural and commercial interests. Let {
everybody take hold with q viii and put /
Oklahoma in the front rank in this, as she /
is in all other things"

Protesting Against Hanging

New Quarters.
BRUMMETT AND BARCLAY

Guthrie. t, June 1S.-Josiah DIlor
and Mrs. Hester were IN the city yester-
day to confer with Governor jenkins tc
protest against the hanging of William
Barclay and James Brummett. who are in
the federal jail under sentence Of death
for the murder of J. I. Poole. who was
killed in the Usage nation last July. These
people are a committee sent from a
Quaker church in Woods county TO see
the governor and have him assist in pre-
pairing a memorial to be presented TO
President Mckinley asking that the sen
tence be changed to imprisonment. Gov
ernor jenkins announced that he would
be glad to do what he could in regard to
the matter.
There is quite a Quaker settlement in
Woods county near Stella, and the Stella
academy is maintained by this organiza-
zation. The Quakers were very anxious
that the men in prison be not hanged,
and viii use desperate efforts to prevent
il.
Barclay and Brummet were to be hang
ed on June p at Pawnee. but were given
a stay of thirty days IN order that their
attorneys should have the proper time
to prepare an appeal to the supreme court
Of the territory. This appeal is IN the
course of preparation and viii be fled
within few Gays.
Tt is the opinion, however, that the men
VIII get new trial. This is owing to the
fact that tAe men who we're pursuing
Barclay and Brummett did not have a
warrant for their arrest and. it is said,
did not have positive evidence that they
were the men wanted. The trial came
on and the men did rot have many Wit
nesses for their defense, and as matter
Of course it was kara for them to defeat
the testimony CT the members of the
posse. Guilty or not guilty. it is the i'm
preston OF attorneys who have been
watching the case that the men should
have every opportunity Of proving their
or at least Of trying to prove
it.
The committee TO see Governor Jenkins
were well pleased with their reception.
and fully believe that they viii be able
to save the men from being hanged.

BURGLARS
OPERATED
AT COYLE
Safe Blown Open and Its Con-
Tents Taken.
ZEN CRAVEN SUSPECTED
Letter Full of Money Overlook
ed by Robbers,
ZEN CRAVEN SUSPECTED

Guthrie. O. T., June I3.-The depot at
Coyle was entered last night, the safe
blown open and a large amount Of money
taken by the robber or robbers. Entrance
was gained by a side window. The safe
was blown open BY nitroglycerine and is
z total wreck The cracks of the safe
had been stopped up with soap IN order
20 get the fun effect Of the explosive.
This morning when Agent IL S. Stew
art entered the depot he saw what had
happened and Immediately went through
the papers which were scattered on the
1oor. In an envelope which the robbers
had overlooked was a roll Of bills
amounting 10 $780, All Of the money kept
n the safe had been taken but this en-
yelope.
There IS no clue to the men who did the
seed. but they are evidently wen pre-
pared. No one heard the explosion and
Il Is supposed that the depot was entered
turing the early part of the night. Peo-
pie in hte vicinity Of Coyle are inclined
to think that Ben Cravens is the man
who headed the party and engineered
+--E A'tSiif-4y- IL II AAlL FAl-IffL W4E@G Den
Cravens is and 1t is supposed that he has
ventured out again TO enter into his old
business. He has been quiet since the
Red Rock affair in which Alvin Bateman
was killed.
Omcers viii take the matter Up and IL
possible win locate the man OF men.
There is absolutely no clue by which the
men can be followed. It is hard TO Sc
cure Information as TO the exact amount
Of money taken as the officials Of the
road will not talk regarding this part OF
the robbery.
This is the first depot robbery that has
occurred in this part Of the territory for
some time and the work of the men was
very effective. the safe and portions Of
he room is almost entirely destroyed.
