What expenses" she asked.
"Why, table expenses. For instance,

She laughed.
why, you goose! If you had an
automobile you could run down
enough fowls to have chicken every

The Worst Was Yet to Come.

A southern pulpit orator, one Sun.
day morning, was describing the ex-
perience of the prodigal son. In his
endeavor to impress his hearers with
the shame and remorse that this
young man felt and his desire to cast
away his wicked doings, he spoke
thus:
"Dis young man got to thinking
about his meanness and his misery,
and he TUX off his coat and frowed it
away. And den he TUX off his vest
and frowed dat away. And den he TUX
off his shirt and frowed dat away too.
And den he come to hisself."

QUESTION OF JURISDICTION
Can County Court Take Jurisdietion
in Transferred Cases

TULSA: The status of every Grim
inal case carried ever to the state
courts, in Indian Territory, will be
affected by the outcome of the Charlie
Warner case, now pending in the dis
trict court OF Tulsa county.
Warner was indicted by the federal
court here for introducing liquor
early last summer. His case was one
of 2S8 transferred to the state court
of Tulsa county. Through his attor-
neys, Warner made application to
Judge l.. M. Poe to have the indict-
ment against him Quashed. Judge
Poe, however, refused to take cogni-
zance Of the main point involved, but
passed My upon the construction of
the instrument. This he held to be
correct, and denied Warmers applica.
ton. The case will now come to trial
in the regular way.
The supreme court OF the United
States has held that no county court
can issue an order to United States
marshal, and the question arises, can
a county court take jurisdiction In
cases transferred from. the federal
dockets?

As SHE HAD BEEN ORDERED.
Domestic Cleared Everything Left
Over Out Of the Ice Box.

There recently entered the service
of a Cleveland family domestic Of
Scandinavian origin. She had never
seen refrigerator before. and the
lady of the house, after initiating her
into its mysteries, instructed her
never to leave anything old or left
over in the ice-box, but to keep the
refrigerator perfectly clean and fresh
by throwing the old things away each
morning.
The very next day the mistress,
looking out Of the window, observed
something peculiar in the yard.
What is that, Sophie?" she asked.
"And how did it get there?"
"That is old ice, ma'am," was the
proud response, left over from yes

Claims Lack Of Jurisdiction
OKLAHOMA CITY: The petition
filed in the district court by twenty

Ing that temporary restraining or

county officials from enforcing the
prohibition article of the constitution,
until the constitutionality of the article
might be determined In court Of law,
was denied by Judge George w. Clark.
The case will be appealed to the su-
preme court.
Judge. Clark holds that he, sitting
as a court Of equity in which all in
junction. proceedings must originate,
has no jurisdiction to restrain the en-
forcement of law regulating Grim
inai prosecutions.
The saloonkeepers were represented
by Wilson, Williams e. Wilson, while
the state was represented by Assist
ant Attorney General Mont +. High
ley and County Attorney l.. +. Rear
don. The arguments covered a period
of about three hours, and Judge Clark
handed down a decision Immediately
after the arguments were closed.
The decision means that no saloons
will open in Oklahoma City until the
supreme court has decided upon the
question at issue, purely as matter
OF law.

Assistants viii Fight Prohibition

GUTHRIE: In letter written to
one of his assistants here Attorney
General West declares that he will
not allow himself to be diverted by
any prohibition agitation from his
campaign against unlawful combina-
tions and conspiracy In restraint Of
trade He expresses the belief that
much of the prohibition agitation Is a
covert attempt Of corporate interests
to build fire In the rear" In order
to detract his efforts away from en-
forcing the law against corporate in
terests. He avows the intention OF
leaving the enforcement OF prohibition
entirely to the local officials for the
present, Iat least.

GLIGGY BLUKs.-This is the name
of new freak in religion, resemb-
ling somewhat, in their SenseleSs
antics, the Holy Rollers" who
have attained such prominent and
unenviable notoriety in our own
State. The Bluks not only fall upon
the floor in apparent fits, but babble
unintelligible nonsense, which they
believe to be an unknown language,
spoken somewhere on Earth. Rev.
Levi Lupton is the head of the or
ganization, which numbers already
several thousand converts, mostly OF
the more ignorant class. He claims
that when the penticostal spirit de-
sends upon worshipers they receive
from the Holy Ghost the ability tC
speak in strange languages. They
live in tents upon the or ounds where
their camp-meetings are held. The
disciples sit in another tent. They
are gathered from thirty States, anG
some have come from abroad. Near
ly hundred are clergymen recruited
from score of UNCONVENTIONAL sects
1t is said that a camp has already
been established in California.
