APRIL IS, 1902. :

Ignorance Of the law, Of fights
OF course, excuses no one, and yet
there are cases when the strict APP
plication of that doctrine would
be harsh. Such seems to be the
case with the negroes who have
purchased property east Of the
Rock Island tracks. 1t is said
they believed their homes to he
within the city limits when they
were purchased. There is little
doubt about their having been i'm
posed upon when the lots were
sold TO them. 1t is also certain
that the original settlers, at least,
were warned and given an oppor-
tunity to exchange their lots for
others within the city limits. That
was in 1900. Now there are about
ninety families living there, many
of whom have made substantial
improvements with the intention
of making permanent homes. II
IS also said that they voted in the
recent city elections and that only
when the appraisers were hcre
did they realize that they were
without the city. A prompt ap
peal was made to the city council
which acted as promptly upon the
petition. At last nights session of
council, the correspondence be
tween the city and the U. S Off
eials was read and The matter dis
cussed.
The department passed upon the
question in 1900, now seems not
disposed to reopen the question
AS the matter stands, the negroes
II disposesed, have no where to 60
as property within the city limits
IS now far beyond The purchasing
power of the most Of them.
The council last night resolved
to take further and immediate ac-
tion in their behalf and il is to be
hoped the result will be favorable
to the settlers. The negroes of
Chickasha are industrious, law
abiding people. They have ear
nest men leading them, and their
petition appears to be for the
right.

Fine Meat Market

Among the enterprises connected
with the supply of local food de-

get them pure and fresh is matter
of much concern. Among the leading
meat markets of the city is that of

his father. has practical knowledge
of the business. and has added to
this with good commercial educa-

HARPER HOUSE
= = PHARMACY

One of the best known of the retail
drug establishments i'm the city is the
llurper House pharmacy. Centrally
and conveniently located its equip
mcnt and management has for years
kept pace with public demands and it
has come to be recognized as thor
oughly reliable place to do business.
The best efforts of past proprietors
have been put into making il what
we find it today and-in the person OF
ii. o. Rolls, who recently purchased
the establishment from W. II. Mar
shall, who had conducted il for years.
there is every reason to believe that
the high standard set years ago will
be maintained. Mr.. Rolls is young
man, but one thoroughly prepared for
the part in the local business com
munity he has assumed. TO pub
lie school education he added Il thor
ough course i'm business branches and
then took up the study of pharmacy
at the New York Pharmaceutical
college, of New York City. From
here he graduated i'm 1898. For a time
he held Il position i'm a large store in
New York and then he came west and
entered one of the leading retail
drug houses of Davenport.
Being a young man of economical
habits he soon accumulated sufficient
capital to embark in business for
himself and thus he came to pur-
chase the establishment he is now
conducting. 1t will he seen that his
preparation i'm both theoretical and
practical pharmacy has been most
complete. For his business ability
one has only to give him trial to be
convinced. The stock he carries is
most complete i'm every detail and he
gives assurance that il will be kept
so so long as he is in charge. The
best drugs and druggists sundries
are the only goods for which he has
"a place and he uses due care i'm serv-
ing his customers. In addition to
the regular business in drugs and
sundries a soda fountain with every
appliance for making delicious and
refreshing summer drinks is operated
during the heated term and is presid-
ed over by only experienced attend
ants. The Harper House pharmacy
is in every way deserving of a con-
tinuance of the liberal patronage it
has had in the past.

than the establishment of ID. T..

most substantial buildings erected in

ID. i. Noftsker was born in Ship
