READ IT THROUGH.
'TWOULD SPOIL THIS STORY TO TELL IT
 IN THE HEADLINES.

To use all eighteenth century phrase, this is an ''o'er true tale." Having happened in small Virginia town in the winter of 1902, it is a story very much of the present. Up to a short time ago Mrs John B. Harmon of Melfa Station, Va., had no personal knowledge of the rare curative prop critics of Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy. "Last January" she says, "my baby took dreadful cold and at one time feared she would have pneumO- nia, but one of my neighbors told me how this remedy had cured her little boy, and I began giving it to my baby and it soon cured her. 1 heartily thank the manufacturers of Chamber lain's Cough Remedy for placing so great cure within my reach. I can not recommend it too highly or say too much in it's favor. hope all who read this will try it and be convinced as l was.'' For sale by R. H.

DR VILE IN HONOLULU.
GIVES HIS POPULAR PASSION PLAY
 LECTURE.

Dr William Conrad Vile of Danbury, ConIi, delivered his illustrated lecture on the Passion Play in Nineteen Hundred, z February 13, before an audience that filled the opera house. It occupied nearly two hours without an intafInission in the delivery. Dr
 Vile $ Language was we'll chosen and his elocution hawless. The effect of his verbal description aided by the lan- tern views seemed to be akin to that produced by the world-famed drama at Oberammergau as he described it-an effect of sOlemnity rising to awe. While the lecture held the audience under spell that might be felt, there was no applause. The photographed scenes of the Passion Play were real istic enough to forbid demonstrations. Besides scenes from the play, fine in- dividual portraits of the principal ac- tors were thrown upon the screen. Representations of Old Testament tableaux that are given between the eighteen acts of the play were also giv- en, such as the brazen serpent and the gathering of the mama. Dr WileS history of the Passion Play atOberam- mergau, a refinement of the coarse production of the dark ages and their sole survival, was presented in graphic language. The only drawback was the limited size of the screen, which wOn1d mi, take tha whole Inf the nio lures in many cases. For the lantern focus used, a screen that would have nearly covered the drop curtain should have been hung, instead of the small sheet suspended back under the flies. The lecture was for the benefit of the Associated Charities and delivered un- der the auspices of the three Masonic blue lodges. Evening Bulle- tin.

TOWN TOPICS. NATURAL GAS Fo$1uLsA. 7
THE METEOROLOGICAL OIL AND GAS COMPANY TO FURNISH LIGHT AND HEAT FOR THE CITY.

At it's session on Monday night the city council gave permit to the Hart ford-O d-Osage Oil and Gas Company to run mains in the city from their oil and gas we'll, on the Kennedy place, north of the Tulsa, for the purpose of furnishing natural gas for heating and lighting purposes. The company to which this permit is awarded has at iB command abundant capital, and is am- ply able to furnish the city with all the conveniences of natural light and heat, and the fact that the we'll in which gas and oil was recently struck proves equal to all anticipations when first report ed, is assurance that Tulsa will soon be one of the great cities of the Territory, standing out in grand relief, where these two essentials of comfort and progress will be bountifully supplied from natures great reservoir that has lain hidden for centuries beneath the surface of the soil. The work of laying mains and supplying the light and heat will be matter of but short time, and in month or so we may expect to see the new era of progress which will surely be inaugurated. 1t will mark an epoch in the history of our city. No more gropingAour way in darkness, or in the pale moonlight, mistaking a mud puddle for a sandheap, or falling headlong over a broken plank on de- fective sidewalk. There will be more light, and where there is more light there is joy. Tulsa will pass from the dim dullness of the f]ickering lamp light to the fullness of it's new day-the day of natural gas.--[Indian Republi- can, Tulsa, Ind. Ter.] Our townsman, M. A. Todd, is now at Tulsa in the in- terests of the Hartford-O -Osage Oil and Gas Co.,, of which he is stockholder. His local friends extend congratula- tions.

The Young Mems class of the Con- gregational Sunday school can certain ly be congratulated on the complete success of their social afternoon on Sat urday last. The tables were decorated with hyacinths and looked very dainty with their china and silver. The ice cream coffee and waters showed that some good cook had stood behind the scenes. The walters all wore white carnations. The serving was of the best, showing that when young men make up their minds to do thing it can be done in way that is unsurpas- sed by those who are more used to it. There were no ladies employed to wash dishes or do any of the necessary work The young men did it all. Three cheers for the young men!

A WORD FROM J. NORThROP.
HE CORRECTs THE BEE NONE ORTWO
 MATTERS.

Editor BEE, Dear Sir:-ln last weeks issue, in your somewhat mixed report of the adjourned town meeting it is made to appear that I made the statement that II was ready to cut the appropriations for schools" I did not say this. What did say in sub stance, was: That there were certain schools which could be reduced with good propriety and when the board of appOrtionment holds the next meeting to make appropriations, 1 would be ready to act with the board about these schools. And my principal reason for making the tax at 15 mills was that an increase from F mills to 20 was too much of an increase or jump at one time and that the farmers and property holders would not be prepared or able to meet it at such short notice Those present at the meeting will re- member that Frank Wright made the first motion for an IS mill tax and an amendment to this was offered by Elmer w. Eairchild to make it 2O My motion was seconded by several in the room and was voted for by such men as Hon T. E. Platt, Philo T. Platt, c. M. Beresford, A. Baird, P. H. Mccarthy, J. A. Blackman, G. w. Stuart, L. Skidmore, w. B. and N. B. Glover and others.
 l also stated would like to see the town out of debt as we'll as anyone present, but we should cut down ex- penses as we'll as to increase the tax to an alarming proportion, and so meet the question halfway and not try to do it all at one time.-[J. J. Northrop.
