Saved from Terrible Death.

The three-year-old daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Addison Smell of
Wanatah, had very narrow es-
cape from death. While the
mother was at work washing she
was using some concentrated I've
which she had prepared and
placed it in a cup on the kitchen
cabinet. The little girl who was
eating bread thinking that the
cup contained water took a drink
of it. She at once dropped the
cup and began to scream, which
attracted the mother, who inn
mediately. realizing what was
ailing the child, gave it some
milk to drink, which probably
saved its life. A physician was
also called and after a few hours
of hard work the child was
brought out of danger.

assured that Oklahoma would re-

the Indian Territory, next week.
This money. he said. would be
deposited by the State in State
banks without delay, thus reliev-
ing the financial situation in Ok

State will be greater because of
the higher rate of interest which
will be paid by the State banks.
A committee consisting of the

One question is uppermost in the

financial situation. But while

follow that they are all OF one

that is that no one knows what

Runaway Airship Last Seen
Over Ireland.

A balloon which passed over
the northeast coast of County
Antrim. Ireland, at 1 o'clock
Sunday afternoon has been iden-
tilted definitely as the French
government airship La Patrie by
the men in charge of the Lloyd's
signal station at forehead. Pre-
vious statements that the dirig-
ible was manned and under con
troll are not corroborated by the
trained observers, who, on the
contrary, say that the airship
was going northward back
ward before a southerly wind
blowing at the rate of six miles
and the aerostat soon disappear
an dthe aerostat soon disappear
ed in the mist.
La Patrie broke loose from the
soldiers holding it at Verdun
and drifted away. The airship
took flight following a gust of
wind that waited La Patric until
all the ballast fell out of the car.
With the ballast gone the buoy
ancy was too great for the 200
soldiers holding it, and they were
obliged to let go. Some OF them
only released their grasp when
their feet were lifted clear of the
ground.
The authorities hope the ship
will rise high enough to be blown
to pieces in rarified upper atmos-
phere or sink in the ocean, deem
ing its loss better than its de-
scent in a foreign country. where

Congress Gets a Long Message

President Roosevelt's first mes
sage to the Sixtieth Congress
was read in both Houses Mon
day. The document is very long
(nearly 10000 words) and deals
with many important topics.
Among these are the tariff, mon
ey, railroads, law enforcement,
capital and labor and the army
and navy. Members OF both
Houses were in their seats early
to hear the reading of the docu-
ment. The usual committees
from the Senate and House call
ed on the President early and
notified him that Congress was
ready to hear any communica-
ton that he might have to send
in. After the message was re-
ceived there was little delay in
beginning the reading. The gal
leries contained an unusual num-
Der of visitors, many of whom
were women.
