There is wit, humor, pathos, philo-
sophy and truth to be found in Henry
Guy Carleton's romantic drama "The
Lions Mouth" which is announced for
Thursday. February 5th, at Brooks
theater with Mr.. Charles d. Herman
as the star supported by the famous
Warde company. The play is written
in blank verse and the thoughts are
framed in the most exquisite and
rythmic English.
One Of the gems of the dialogue is
a soliloquy on death which reads thus.
What's to die. but to ascend stair
case, home;
Life. Love. Loss Three falteriue
steps,
From cradle to the grave; three steps
and then
Like little tired children in the lap
OF our great mother,--sleep."

The sewers Of Guthrie are emitting
very bad smell. SO The Leader of
that town says, and It is more offens-
i've to the moral sense Of the com,
munity than to their olfactories.
There is much talk of doodle" In
the air, and a mass meeting has been
held at which the protest OF the people
was emphatically registered Some
of the members of the council tried
To explain away the situation blt
the mass meeting didn't take the ev-
plantations very pleasantly
The cities and counties and in fact
the whole territory Of Oklahoma seem
to be easy money for the grafters and
boodlers. There is probably not Il
county in the territory in which there
is not some Doodle scandal. or has
been recently, and as a consequence
the people are groaning under a bur
den of high taxes to pay for the gratis
that almost amounts to a confiscatiol
of their property.
1t might be a debatable question
whether these smooth men were bood-
lers before they came to Oklahoma
or whether there is something in the
atmosphere that nourishes the Doodle

If at the end of an hour you find
that the salt in the March onion has
