though they were not specific enough
at that time TO warrant a prosecution.
Since that time investigation has con

discovered, resulting in his arrest.
Phillips has been quite prominent in

Okla, Sept. 10.-At the home
of the BRIDES parents in this city
tonight occurred the wedding of
Miss Elizabeth Bowman and B.
j. Allen. The Bowman resi-.
dence had been beautifully
decorated for the occasion. The
color scheme that was carried
out in all the decorations of the
parlors was pink and white. In
one end of the parlor was an
altar of cedars and ferns under
canopy of white smilax, from
which depended the wedding
bell of white carnations. The
bride wore a beautiful gown of
white muslin over taffeta, with a
long silk embroidered veil. The
ceremony, which was performed
by Rev. j. A. B. Ogilvee, was
without doubt the most beautiful
ever witnessed here. To the
strains of Mendelssohn's wed.
ding march the wedding party
entered the parlor and walked to
the altar down an aisle formed
of white and pink ribons held by
four little girls in white. There
were no bridesmaids and no best
man, snd the guests were mostly
relatives of the two young people.
Among the out-of-town guests
were Hon. G. B. Ames and Mrs.
Ames of Oklahoma City, and c.
G.. Christal and Mrs. Christal of
Chandler. After the wedding
the newly married couple and
the guests adjourned to the din
ing-room, which was decorated
in white and green. Refresh
ments were served, and in keep.
ing with the color scheme the
ices were green and white. Mr..
and Mrs. Allen left on the $3.50
train for Mulberry, Ark, where
the groom is manager of a mill.
Mrs. Allen is the daughter of a
wealthy merchant of this city.
Both she and her husband are
very we'll known and popular
here. Mr.. Allen is brother of
