It was nearly II o'clock when ci-
gars were lighted and President Rus
sell as toast master, raped for order
and started the oratorical part Of the
prograza. After appropriate intro
duetory remarks he called for Mr.. D.
D. Sayer as the first speaker. Read
ing one Of the apt quotations on the
menu cards, II think there is some
thing in it." Mr.. Sayer said,
"When ! look at the faces about me
in this hall, ! cannot help but feel,
gentlemen that there is something in
it. ! cannot but fel that this meeting
is a harbinger Of better things for
Chickasha." The speaker recalled the
last commercial club banque in
Chickasna, given ten years ago, to
the builders Of the first -four mill in
Chickasha, when there was but a
handful Of people in the city. He
also noted many other interesting
facts in the progress of the city and
illustrating with an apt anecdote re-
marked, when I see all that is going
on around us, say Chickasha is GO
ing some" Mr.. Sayer gave many
pertinent suggestions and his speech
evoked much applause.
Capt. B. B. Paddock, secretary Of
the Fort Worth Board Of Trade, a
veteran in the "town building busi-
ness was next introduced as one Of
the guests Of honor and one Of the
principal speakers Of the evening. He
was given an ovation and he canti-
waited his audience from the start.
His address was full Of wit and hu-
NOR and sound advice, the fruits Of
years Of experience. Among other
things Capt. Paddock said, "When
see your natural advantages for a
city here, | don't wonder at your pro-
gress, but gentlemen, more cities die
of natural advantages than from any
other one cause. Natural advantages
are not to be despised but they must
be backed up by an enterprising citi-
zenship and hard work. A man
should not live by himself ntr for
himself alone 1t is the individual
who lives for and helps his neighbor
who wins the praise and plaudits Of
mankind" After handing the moss

The decorating scheme carried out
was the star. Five tables were ar
ranged in the shape Of the five point
ed star. The tables were decorated
with red, white and blue intertwined
with smilax and with large stars at
frequen. intervals alorg them. Hun
dreds Of carnations in ~ glass vases
helped out the decorative idea. AIT
the north end Of the hall was d large
electrical star which flashed the ma
tional colors, while the posts were
wound with bunting and above every
table were streamers Of red, white
and blue hung with ornamental pen
dants. From the posts and walls
were flags of all sizes.
An hour before the time set the
guests began to arrive and while
waiting were entertained by beauti-
full music from Fox's six piece or
chestra stationed near the south en-
trance to the hall. Prof. Fox had
arranged a special program for the
occasion and better music has never
been heard in Chickasha. They came
in for a large share Of praise for
lending to the success Of the occasion.
The ladies worked untiringly an un-
selfshly and to their splendid efforts
is due the greater part Of the credit
for the unequalled success Of the most
memorable banquet in the history Of
Chickasha. In fact their arrange
ments were so perfect that the entire
affair was carried out with the ease
and system Of big establishment;

picture was taken Of the interior and
the entire company just as they
were seated.
It was demonstrated beyond any
doubt that convention hall is especial
~ adapted to such affairs as was
given there last night. The inn
mense auditorium had been wired es-
'pecially to give the best light ef-

properties, they were fine, as each
speaker was heard with distinctness
in the remotest corners Of the build

sha Commercial club when they en-
tered convention hall last night to

Never before in the history Of the

present large membership Of the club
rallied to their club and to the honor
Of the city as was the ease last
night. From the first inspiration Of
Secretary Stephens that a banquet
would be the thing, it has been a most
gratifying success and every member
has taken a personal interest in It.
II was near nine o'clock when the
guests, a number Of whom we're ac-
companied by their wives, were seat

plate was the menu, printed in red,

According to Regu-
latiOnS.

Ways and means TO prosecute the

by the Health Department with selling

conference this afternoon or tomorrow
between Acting Secretary Of Agriculture
Hayes and /. F. Kebler. acting chief
of the Bureau of Chemistry.
officials of the Department of Agri-
culture are disposed at present to be-
lieve that the thirty-two samples of ice
cream collected and analyzed by the
Health officer of the District. and Of
fered by him as evidence for the prose-
cution Of the dealers, were not obtained
according to the regulations of the pure
food law. and that. therefor, prior TO
a prosecution by the department, new
samples will have to be collected and
analysed by the department
So short a time has the pure food law
been In erect, however, that IL is not
known whether a prosecution can be
based on the evidence collected by the
Health Omcer. II IS more than prob
able that the issue will be submitted
to the Attorney General Of the United
States before further progress is made
in the matter.
II. however, the Acting Secretary OF
Agriculture concludes that tSe depart
ment will have to collect new evidence
on the subject and cannot use the
Health Officers evidence. the depart
ment will issue orders for the immediate
collections Of samples Of ice cream sold
In the District. If the analysis shows
that the Ice cream is impure or below
the standard set by the department, the
dealers will be given hearing before
the department They are entitled to
this hearing In any case
II at the hearing they do not show
that they were blameless in selling the
wrong sort OF ice cream, their prosecu-
ton in the courts will follow. according
