COUNTY WITHOUT A TOWN.
Oklahoma Convention Locates q Site
for Building a Burg.


for Building a Burg.
Immediately upon the adjournment
Of the constitutional convention and q
favorable decision by the Oklahoma
courts that the convention had power
to divide counties in Oklahoma q town
will be built at Buffalo, formerly por-
ton of northwest Woodward County,
says the Kansas City Star. The town
site Is now bare prairie owned by w.
H. Miller, farmer.
Though forty by twenty-eight miles
in size, Harper County is without a
single organized town government.
Brule, county postoffice, with two
or three trading stores, was the most
important trading point in the county,
but 1t was not town. The nearest
Kan, thirty miles away.
In building town at Buffalo the
owner Of the land will make a num-
Der of experiments that are not I'M
tinged with a certain kind of socialism.
George Ford of Guthrie, who will man
age the enterprise, Is a man Of social
istic views.
1.-THE owner of the land" said Ford,
realizes that the citizens Of the coun-
ty will be hard pressed for money In
the establishment Of the county govern
ment and that some kind of assistance
will be necessary to give the county q
good start. Miller has given five lots
in each block and an entire block to
the county. On this single block will
be built county buildings The lots
may be sold by the county or retained
perpetually for rental purposes, the
income to be used for running the
county government"
But it Is In another way that the
town Of Buffalo will be experimental
The owner Of the land has agreed to
use q certain portion Of the income
frsm the sale Of his lets In building
public utilities which citizens could
not afford to build and in which out
side capital would End no early profit.
A system Of waterwsrks will be estab-
lished BY the erection of windmills
and reservoirs, from which water will
be conducted in pipes to all portions Of
the town. An acetylene gas plant will
afford light. Until the county can levy
taxes and build a courthouse county
officers will be given quarters free Of
cost in a building owned by the town
site company. Other improvements af
this kind will be cotton gin, cream
cry plant, canning factory and a mo-
tor car line to Ashland.

Heavy Gloves.

The wealthy old gentleman came up

"Oh, father" faltered the beautiful

Gracious, father, hope you haven't

CHAPTER XII.


The following morning before Con.
stance Fraser had had time to compose
her thoughts, and begin to prepare her
child for what lay before her, Sheila
came into the room.
Audrey was lying very quiet In her
little bed, and the other girl noticed, with
anger in her heart, how exquisitely love
~ was that pale young face, pillowed
among the delicate lace-edged linen and
Swallowed by the pink-lined curtains. 1t
made her even savage, in her Jealous
hatred, to notice what daintiness the
mother already gave to her new-feund
child. p
II came to tell you," she said, very
abruptly, "that l am going to London
for few days. Janet will accompany
me. Is there anything that can do
for your"
Mrs. Fraser shook her head. Sheila
went away in total ignorance that the
place Immediately.
1t was no unusual thing for her to go
to London for few days, as she was a
shrewd business woman, and superintend-
ed nearly all the movements of her af-
fairs. This time, however, there was
nothing that would demand her atten-
ton, except this former marriage of her
fathers widow.
She determined during her absence
from Dinglewood to 60 herself to Broad
borough and make full inquiries about
Audrey.
II will not rest till I have full and
complete proof that she is Frank Ans
truther's child. If only can be success
full and discover any flaw, think I
shall know how to make it disagreeable
for Mrs. Fraser and her charity girl"
To Shela's annoyance she found that
Mr.. Chester was in possession of every
fact relating to Audrey's birth, and in
a very short time placed these facts be-
fore her.
''There is not shadow of doubt, Miss
Fraser" he said quietly, that this young
girl is Miss Anstruther. 1 have been
myself to Broadberough and made every
inquiry, and If these inquiries had failed,
the appearance of the registration Of
birth and the marriage certificate would
settle the question. 1 have been down
to the church where Miss Gascoigne mar
red Captain Anstruther, and have pro-
cured another copy of the certificate.
Here it is"
(Which IL so much worthless paper,
considering that Captain Anstruther was
married at the time and had wife liv-
ing" Sheila remarked CURLY.
II am happy in being able to assure
yea that this romance is not true, and
congratulate you that your stepmother
has at least one joy left her in life Fate
has treated her harshly, poor lady"
She arose abruptly, and went away.
As she re-entered her hotel, she saw a
pile Of luggage being carried in, and in
her preternaturally sharp way she rec
ognized the livery of the footman, who
was experimenting the portmanteaus and
huge boxes, as that worn by the servants
of the Earl of Daleswater. She whisper
ed to her maid, Beecham, to find out If
the family were about to stay at the hotel,
and passed upstairs with the first sensa-
ton of pleasure she had experienced for
some time, which grew stronger as she
learned that the countess and her chill
dren were expected up the following day
from Daleswater House.

We have reached this conclusion
