ALL WORKED UP
Oklahoma City is Much Aroused
over the Prohibition Feature
of theStatehood Bill
HOTEL MEMS OPPOSITION
To it Very Strong The Mayor
Opposes It.

The Oklahoma City Times
Journal prints the following rela-
tive TO the reception of the prohibi-
tion amendment by the people in
that city:
Many of our prominent citizens
spoke to the Times Journal man to-
day, and seemed TO be very much
worked up over the Gallinger
amendments.
This opposition, tc great ex-
tent comes from the hotel men, and
naturally from the saloon owners.
Pop Williams Of the GrundAve-
nue. has expressed himself as very
much against it. Mr.. McClihtock
Of the Threadgill is equally oP-
posed to it.
Oscar Lee was bitter in his op
position. He said: "I never saw
a dry town that amounted TO any
thing, even the best towns in
Kansas. It created a set IF per-
jured officials; it fills town with
blind tigers for people will have
it,
Mayor Van Winkle was asked
his opinion and said "Id rather
see US destined to be a territory for
twenty-one years than to be ad-
mitted asa state with prohibition.
A great many merchants have
expressed tlieir dissatisfaction.
The following telegram was re-
ceived last evening by the presi-
dent of the Chamber of Commerce
from Nj. G. B. Stone, its first vice
president who is representing the
business organizations of this city
in Washington in the statehood
matter:
Single statehood passed senate
with prohibition clase for entire
state. New Mexico included
alone. Much depends on confer
ence committee.
Later, or about eleven o'clock
today, Mr.. Il D. Turner received
message from G. G. Jones, ask
ing "if our people would prefer to
remain as territories rather than to
accept statehood with prohibition. y
The matter will be turned over to
the Chamber Of Commerce at their
meeting this afternoon. 7. D.
Turner, president Of this organlza-
ton, said:
II don't speak now in an officia
capacity, but from purely person
al standpoint. | am opposed tc
the Fl years Of prohibition because
it gives the people no choice II
the matter. am willing that thC
Indian Territory should be protect
ed, but to restrict this territory anc
shut down on the rights Of citizens
who are in business here IS no
right. / will say that if it eve
came to a matter Of state organizs
ton / would undoubtedly be Oh

but l think that congress shoul'
have no right to decide what j
best for us. We have brewer
.(here, and saloon men who hay
quite lot Of money invested j
their business and the loss TO ther
would be great figure it on
that it is unfair"

HOT SHOT
 IN SENATE
President of Armour
 Co. Aroused.
Defends His Concern and Brands as a Lie Report that Armour Co. is in the Commission Business.

Washington, May 16.-I wish to brand that statement as absolutely false'' said George B. Robbins, presi- dent of the Armour car lines, before the senate committee of the interstate commerce to-day, referring to state ment of E. M. Ferguson, of Duluth, that the Armour company were in com mission business.
 Robbins was closely questioned by members of the committee and refuted many charges hitherto made. He main- tained that complaints came from con- mission merchants and not from grow CTS or shippers, who were satisfied with the conditions, citing testimony from Georgia. California and elsewhere to this effect. Senator Deliver remarked, There seems to be a great deal of transformation i'll the public mind about this matter, as we'll as newspa- pers and magazines" Robbins main tained that as the company merely rented its cars to railroads it was not common carrier and should not be placed under the jurisdiction of the ln- terstate commerce commission.

BURGLARS IN BEDROOM.
Mrs Charles Oppenheim of Bridgeport
 Had Startling Experience.


 Bridgeport, May 16.-Mrs Charles Oppenheim of 985 North avenue re- ceived the scare of her life Sunday morning. She was awakened out of a sound sleep with belief that there was somebody in her room. She awoke with start, sat bolt upright in her bed and saw man in the room, and at first sight the man looked as If he was as tall as the room was high. The man wore black mask on his face. As Mrs Oppenheim's bewildered eyes looked at him the mammoth black mask moved to the foot of the bed, took her husbands vest and trousers and walked out of the room.
 Mrs Oppenheim did not recover presence of mind for some time, and then she touched her husband, for she could not use her voice. The touch awoke her husband, who made in- quiries as to what was up.
 Mrs Oppenheim then related what she saw. She was in very nervous state. There was immediate investlga- tion and 1t was found that the woman's story was only too true. The burglar had taken the vest, in which was at- tached valuable gold watch. In the pocket of the trousers was $50. The police were notified of the affair. Sun day morning Detective Cronan made a survey of the premises, but could not find any trace of the missing garments, but Officer Beemer picked up the black mask which the burglar had dropped.

LIVES IN A HUT.
Man Who Wants to be Free From Piano Playing
 and Singing.

Chicago, May 16.-With the dual desire of getting away from neighbors who annoy with piano playing and singing, and of living life which he can fashion as he chooses, Oskar Eek stein, native of Munich and instn-uc- tor in chemical research at the Uni yersity of Chicago, has deserted the neighborhood of Midway Plaisance, and is now living in fisherman's hut on the shore of Lake Michigan, where he prepares his own food, chooses his companions from the few fishermen that live nearby and wears the greater part of the time simple bathing costume.
 The hut or cottage in which Dr Eckstein lives consists of one room, twenty feet square. It is simply fur nished, containing table, chairs and a bed. There is also bookcase, al- though the occupant does most of his work at the university.

WARMERS IDEA OF IT.
Made . Characteristic spssch u
 Hartford To.Day.

Hartford, May 16.-Representatiye Southwick of Cornwall at a meeting of the Farmers association today announced that he had experienced a change of mind on the bill which re- peals sections of the general railroad laws. The bill in question makes 1t necessary for railroad companies, who desire to build in the state, to come to the legislature for special charters
 Representative Warner thought the association should satisfy itself that the New York Central survey was not an elaborate plan of the Con- solidated road to secure repeal of the law. In closing his remarks Rep. resentative Warner said:
 If you want to give the keys Of the state of Connecticut to President Mellen and say, come In, why open the doors wide; and if there are any crumbs left, take them back and thank God that something was left"
 Representative Marsh of Waterbury also spoke, opposing the bill.
 Railroad matters occupied consid- erable part of the general assembly session to-day. The senate session was occupied with a discussion of the Con solidated Street Railway bill. ' It was called from the foot of the calendar and an amendment submitted eliminat. ing the double track privileges. It was tabled for another day.
 This street railway bill was tabled by the senate two weeks ago, after passing the house with several amend ments. Senator Atwood of the sixth district was the gentleman this m0rn- ing who moved the amendment elim- mating the double tracking privileges. Senator Paige opposed the amendment, contending that the charter did not in any way conflict with the general laws. Senator Bradstreet said the matter had been discussed in full before the rail- road committee. The charter did not annul any statute existing. He re- quested Senator Atwood to withdraw the amendment. At this point Senator Atwood asked to have the matter lie on the table another day and if he be- came satisfied that the amendment was unnecessary he would withdraw 1t to- morrow. Senator Bradstreet opposed the tabling, but 1t was voted to table the matter by vote of to '.
 In the house this morning Represenr tative Alcorn of Suffield presented | resolution on the late United StateD Senator O. H. Platt as testimonial to the late seatesman's career. This was adopted and the resolutions will Do engrossed.

BROOMs AND BUSTERS
Menace the Public Health, Says Dr
 Lindsley.

LindSley.
 BrOoms and feather dusters are the Mbject of much unfavorable comment by Dr Charles A. Lindsley, secretary N the state board of health, in his April report; Many of the most infec- hous diseases, including grip, whoop- mg cough, diphtheria, humps, chicken pox, smallpox. measles and scarlet lever, are carried by means of germs attached to dust particles floating in she air. Confined these germs become highly dangerous, hence the dust of Dwellings being enclosed by walls is more dangerously infected than is that N the street.
 The moral drawn from this is that he cleaning of. apartments should be IS far as possible accomplished with vut raising a dust. Hence, he says, brooms and dusters are in disgrace with good housekeepers, except fin very limited use. He declares that fixed ar- hcles of furniture should be taken out If doors to be cleaned and that tapes rles and portieres should be sparingly lsed where they will accumulate dust. Carpets nailed to the floor are particu. hrly unsanitary. Hard wood floors which can be wiped with damp cloth Ire the thing. Carpets should. be ex- :luded from all public buildings. In churches a run may be permitted in tented pews provided an appropriate tribute be paid the sexton for an occa- donal removal and cleaning.
 Dr Lindsley suggests that the infec- Ion may be brought in on the shoes llso on the trailing skirts of the ladies which are shaken or brushed in the Iouse. This only adds to the danger k disease in dwellings where dust ac- mmulates and is frequently stirred up.

GROWTH OF CITIES IN AREA.

The growth of American cities in area is going on pretty steadily and is not always reflected by the growth in population.
 Ten years ago New Orleans was a city of sixty square miles area; its present area is 199 square miles.
 Cincinnati in the same period has increased from 24 to 43 square miles, Denver from 43 to 8, Indianapolis from 20 to %, Louisville from IA to 20, Boston from B to 42, San Fran cisco from 42 to 46, Atlanta from 9 to F, Duluth from 62 to e. New Haven from 9 to 20, Portland, Me, from to 22, Fall River from fl to 43, Little Rock from 8 to II, Newarksfrom IS to 22, and Holyoke from 6 to 16.
 The city which has made the largest gain in area is New York, which ten years ago covered sixty-one square miles and now covers 326, the exten- sion of its boundaries to include Brook lyn, Long Island City and Staten Island having taken place in the mean while.
 Four American cities, all of first i'm portance. have gained little or nothing in area during the last ten years. They are Chicago. with an area of 19O square miles it was 19S ten years ago). Bos- ton with 42. St Louis with 61 and Bal timore with 31.
 Some American cities are geograph- ically so built that an extension of their boundaries Is impracticable. Other American cities made provision in advance for the growth which they expected. and an addition to their boundaries has not been necessary.
 A majority of the cities of the coun- try are larger territorially than they were twenty years ago. nearly one-hah are larger territorially than they were ten years ago. and the increase of pop ulation in American cities has been general But New York has made the greatest growth both fin size and num- bers.

BUCKS HILL SCHOOL
William II. Tyler Gets Out an Iniunc.
 tion for Committee.

William M. Tyler of Bucks hill seems determined that there shall not be a new school building in that district un- der the present conditions. This morn- ing, through Attorney Seery, Mir Tyler got out an injunction enjoining the district committee, and the committee that was appointed some time ago to buy land and put up a proper and suf
 1dent building upon it, from carrying out the vote of the district. The in- junction was granted by Judge Cowell and is returnable to the district court the first Tuesday in June.
 He has enjoined the building commit tee from purchasing the land which the district voted to buy on which to build the school. He claims that the com mittee and the owner of the land can not agree on a price. In disputes of this kind the law provided that the matter shall be taken to the superior court and there decided. He also claims that 1t Is the duty of the dis trict committee and not of the build ing committee to buy land required for this purpose The price asked for the land according to the building commit tee is $5OO,and Mir Tyler claims he can prove that it was offered and can be had for $1OO.
 His final contention is that the build- ing committee was appointed to get estimates for building only. whereas he claims the committee have had plans drawn up and are otherwise prepared to begin building.
 The story of this contention is long one For the past year or over the board of education have been trying to get the Bucks Hill school district com mittee to put up proper building. The voters were divided as to the proper place for the building and after con siderable contention and quite num- Der of meetings it was found neces- sary to invite an outside district com mittee in to1help straighten out the tangle. This was in compliance with the law. So the Naugatuck district committee was invited and site was selected. Then building committee was appointed and everything appear ed to be going along well when the chief objectOr to the new school, Mir Tyler stepped in with his injunction. At the meeting of the board of educa- ton held last evening the Bucks Hill district committee was given another prod about their delay in starting building operations. Unless the dis pute is settled early this summer con ditions in the district will be as bad as ever.
 A member of the committee on hy- giene and schoolhouses said the board of education would do exactly right by ordering the Bucks Hill school closed on account of the unsanitary conditions, and thus cut it of from its annual appropriation from the state.
