TWICE ACQUITTED
Jury Finds That Mrs. W. 8.
StaniieId Has Committed
No Disturbance


Mayor Shanahan has just concluded
two exciting cases in the city court.
In both cases the defendant was Mrs.
VI. s. Stanteld, who was charged
with creating disturbance The
first case, tried Yesterday, was for The
scene ID the Cobb hotel last spring
The case had not been brought to
trial, as Mr.. and Mrs Stantield have
been living together again since then.
The jury found verdict Of NOT
guilty.
This morning she was tried on the
second charge, and again the jury dis
charged her AS the interior Of the
house is saidto be a wreck from Sum
days row. the husbands Of the town
are wondering just what does, Id the
jury's opinion, constitute distur-
bance.

charged with threatening the life Of
her husband, and peace bond is asked
for. This case viii be heard by Com

Democrats Carried the
Special Election By
81 Majority


Or. E B. Frayser, Democrat, was
elected alderman from the first ward
yesterday over Fred L. Kelley, Re
publican, by majority Of 81. Fray
ser will succeed Charles H.. Collins,
Democrat, SO that the complexion Of
the council will'be what it has been
since the spring election, five Repub-
licans and three Democrats.
There was considerable interest man
Tested in the election, considering it's
slight Importance. The Democrats
we're especially anxious to redeem
their spring defeat, and worked hard.
The "old timers and "progressives"
were united for once. and DR.. Fray
ser received the votes Of both fac
tions.
Another factor in the result was
The Chieftain's stand or the negro
question, Many Of the colored voters
had been angered and refused to
vote at all, while still more had to be
seen
AS the Republicans had not the where
wlthal to see" them, and as the
Democrats had, those who were seem
voted for Dr. Frayser, with the result
that he had majorities in the two
wards where the bulk Of the negro
population lives.
The vote by wards was as follows:

tions for the selections Of delegates to
the state convention also win becalled
by the territorial chairman. In
recording districts where there now is
no territorial committeeman the
chairman of the district committee
becomes an ex-OfIicio member OF the
territorial COMMITTEES"
The committee then adjourned, af-
ter deciding to hold the next quarter
ly meeting in Tulsa on October 30.
A special meeting, however, will prob
ably be held soon at the call of Chair
man Grant Victor.
Several booms we're noticed at the
convention. Among them was the
carefully nursed boomlet of Colonel
Clarence B. Douglas Of Muskogee for
senator. The colonel, however, being
in alliance with Bird Mcclure of Ok
lahoma, was unfortunate enough to
have embossed the latter's scheme for
'ssnapn congressional conventions for
the Indian Territory, and as this pro-
ject was decidedly unpopular in Bar
tlesville, the colonels boom rather
languished, for the time being at
least.
Mayor Frank G. Hubbard OF Mus
kogee was circulating actively among
the delegates with his boom for con-
gress from the third district. Colo
mel Douglas and ne seem to be in ALI
ance, one boosting the other. Mr..
Hubbard, by the way, was an en-
ployee Of The Chieftain some fifteen
years ago, while still a young man,
and while the paper was run by M.
e. Milford.
There was one boom, though, that
was greatly strengthened. That was
the boom of William Johnstone Of
for congress- As far as
Mr.. Johnstone is concerned, he doesn't
want the Office, and mas repeatedly
saidso. His friends, though, seem in
clined to thrust the nomination upon
him, if they can secure it, AS presi-
dent Of the Bartlesyille Republican
club, he has done valiant service for
bhe party, and his executive ability
wa shown by the excellent manner
In which he and his club handled
the convention.

Santiago, Chile, Aug. 22.-The peo'
Die arriving here from Valparaiso esti-
mate that 80 per cent Of the buildings
10. the Terremote district of hat city
have been destroyed. All reports
agree In saying that the Almendral
and the southern districts of Val
Iparaiso suffered the most severely.
According to some of the reports Val
paraiso may be said to have been to-
tally destroyed, it being asserted that
nearly all the houses which remained
standing having been so shaken that
they must be pulled down. One Of the
travellers who arrived here during the
day says that more than 800 persons
we've killed in that part of Valparaiso
known u the port and that 800 per-
sous were injured there, but 1t is i'm
possible to verify his statement.
The majority of the inhabitants of
Valparaiso are camped on the hills
surrounding that city. in the parks
and thoroughfares or have sought
refuge on board vessels at anchor in
the bay.
A. conservative estimate places the
number of homeless people at 10000
and the distress, which is already
great, Is increasing.

Ladies' Remember

The Mclean County Fair As.
ISOLATION will hold it's annual fail
this year on October Sd, 18th and
5th.
The association has made prepa-
rations to make this the most novel
and interesting exposition in the
Northwest, but to make it complete
let all the progressive people of
the county lend their assistance.
The farmers should see to it that
we have a good exhibit of agricul-
tural products and live stock, but
that is not all. The ladies Of Nc
Lean county should show. us what
they can do. We have a few. la
dies in the county who do not know
how to make bread, and they are
certainly unfortunate, but we also
have a goodly number Of strictly
first-class housekeepers in Mclean
county, and the Fair Association
respectfully urge upon you to
show the unfortunate ones that you
can make bread and make it right.
Therefore we have provided a do
nestle department for the display
of bread, biscuits, cake, pies, jel-
lies, preserves, pickles, etc., for
which suitable premiums will be
allowed.
W. will also have a floral, art
and fancy goods department, in
which all the industrious ladies' Of
Mclean county should feel inter-
ested. The woman who spends
apart of her spare time in making
attractive ornaments and fancy
goods to beautify the home, de-
serves a decided credit over the
other one who devotes a liberal
share of her spare time in discuss
ing tae mistakes of the neighbors.
The articles exhibited in the
floral, art and fancy goods depart
ment will be given the most prom
nent space in the exhibition hall,
and all the ladies' should take pride
in contributing toward making this
department a credit to yourselves
and an honor to the county.
