WOMAN DIES
NEGLECTED..

Mrs. Mary f.. Hartop, the wom-
an from Canadian county, whose
relatives tried and failed to have
released from the territorial in
san asylum at Norman, died
mt the sanitarium Tuesday. A.
mong the seven affidavits that
were made to a member of the
Investigating committee appoint
ed by the past legislature to in
vestigate conditions at the sani-
tarium, was one made by Mrs.
Hartop's brother-in-law. He
stated in his affidavit that, ac-
cording to his belief, Mrs, Hartop
had not received any medical at
tention since her incarceration
there and that she had had in
sufficient food and clothes. He
predicted that she would die if
not released, and petitioned that
he be given permission to take
her away. The body of Mrs.
Hartop has been removed to FL
Reno, the home of her relatives.
The governor has asked the in
terror department at Washington
to send "A special agent to Nor
man to investigate the Oklahoma

holds "A contract for the care of
the territorial insane at 5000 per
person per year. No action has
been taken by the interior de-
partment, although Governor

WIMBISH WOULD NOT ADMIT NEW EVIDENCE
City the Waerworks Cas-
With Adavts the neffCiency of the System at the
Recent Fire. Argument Heard in Atlanta Friday

City Attorney Edwards and signed by
various parties. to the effect that the
water pressure at the fire on the 9th
inst. was wholly inadequate: that a
stream could not be thrown on the
structures, which were One-story
buildings, and that the firemen had to
climb electric light poles and let The
water run from the hose on the fire.
Judge Parks, local counsel for the
waterworks company, sent atfidavits
TO the effect that the water tower was
full to the top, and that free and full
flow of water was prevented by the bad
condition of the hose and stick that
was in the nozzle.
AS stated above, this new evidence
was not admitted by the master, and
it will be determined by Judge New
man whether it shall become part of
the record in the case.
Judge Newman's verdict in the suit
is now awaited, and no matter what
his decision may be an appeal will
doubtless be made to higher court.

DEATH OF MRS. B. B. PERRY
Grim Reaper Claims One of Daw-
sons Estimable Women.

One of the saddest deaths that ever
occurred in Dawson was that of Mrs
B. B. Perry, who breathed her last at
her home on Lee street Friday night
at II o'clock, after an illness of nearly
three months. Her life was despaire !
of for several days before the end
came, but her death, though expected,
cast gloom over the entire city.
The deceased was - years of age,
and had been member of the Metho-
dist church since early childhood. She
was woman of many virtues, and her
fidelity to the church, strong christian
character and generous and noble dis
position made her blessing and in-
spiratiOn to her family and friends,
aud her death has made vacancy in
the home, in the church and in the
community that will be felt. AS
she lived she died, and her beautiful
life came to close gently and peace
fully.
the Methodist church Sunday morn
ing at IL o'clock, conducted by the
pastor, Rev, Osgood F. Cook, assisted
by his father, DR.. J. O. A. Cook, of
Hawkinsvllle.
The church was crowded from the
Sunday school room to the chancel with
sorrOwing friends, the seating cap&c
ity being insufficient to accommodate
the crowd, and floral offerings were
banked upon the casket and around the
altar, testifying in their beauty and
fragrance, to the esteem and love in
which the departed one was held.
The remarks of the minister as he
spoke of her Christian life and good
deeds were touching and comforting,
and made a deep impression upon the
vast audience.
At the conclusion of the services the
remains were followed TO Cedar Hill
cemetery by large procession, where
all that was mortal of this good woman
was laid to rest.
