 "A man in your position ought to be more accurate" interposed Philip. T did not say I lived in Park lane. I told you I intended to buy a house there"
 Seldom indeed were the minor deities of the police station bearded in this fashion, and by a callow youth, but the Inspector was making the copperplate hair strokes which had gained him pro motion, and his brain had gone back to It's normal dullness.

 The boy turned despairingly to Isaac stein.
 "Mr. Isaacstein." he said, with piti- ful break in his voice, 'why do you let them do this thing? You are a rich man and well known. Tell them they are wrong"
 But Isaacstein was wabbling now In q renewed state of excitement.
 "What can I do, .boyT' he vociferat- ed, almost hystericnlly. You must say where you got these stones, and then perhaps you can clear up every thing"
 Philips lips met in thin seam.
 q will never tell you," he answered. And not another word would he utter.

CHAPTER V.

| TN after years Philip never forgot
 the shame of that march through
 the staring streets. The everlast- \ ing idlers of London's busiest thor oughfares gathered around the police man and his prisoner with grinnine callousness.
 "Wot's e bin a-doin' of?'
 "Nicked @ lydy's purse, eh?"
 "Naw! Bin ticklin' the till, more like"
 s"Bli-me, don't e look sick!''
 They ran and buzzed around him like wasps, stinging most bitterly with coarse words and coarser laughter. An omnibus slowed its pace to let them cross the road. and Philip knew that the people on top craned their necks to have a good look at him. When near ing the viaduct steps, the policeman growled something at the pursuing crowd. Another constable strode rap idly to the entrance and cut of the loafers, sternly advising them to find bUluc Oluci 0coliuullou. DuI thC iCS- pite was a brief one. The pair reached Burlington street and had barely at tracted attention before they passed the restaurant where Philip had lunch. ed. The hour was yet early for midday customers. and the baldheaded proprie- tor saw them coming. He rushed out The greengrocer, too turned from hi, wares and joined in the exclamations of his friend at this speedy denouement of the trivial incident of twenty min utes earlier.
 The restaurant keeper was made ju- bilant by this dramatic vindication of the accuracy of his judgment.
 ''The thieyin' young scamp" he ejac- ulated. That's, right. Mir. Policeman. Lock i'm up. Els a reg'lar wrong 'un." "
 The constable stopped. "Hello!" he said. Do you know him?"

 "'Old 'ard," put in the greengroee- that's not quite the ticket E askc.' you to trust i'm. but you wouldn't"
 The stout man gurgled.
 Not me. I know Is sort But e 'ad you fair treat. Billy"
 "Mebbe, an mebpe not. Ennyhow two bob won't break me, an I'm sorry for the kid. wot's e done, Mir. Police man" MT. Judd was nettled. yet un willing to acknowledge he was wholly wrong.
 "Stole a heap of diamonds. Do eithc' of you know him"
 "Nevcr saw him afore this mornin'."
 "Never bin in my 'ease before"
 'gThen come along" and Philip wa tugged onward, but not before h, found courage to say: ,s,,
 Thank you once more. Mir. Judd. ' will keep my word. never fear" =
 What are you thanking him for: said the constable.
 "For believing in me-" was the curl answer.
 The policeman tried to extract some meaning from the words, but failed. He privately admitted that it was an extraordinary affair. How came | boy who spoke like gentleman and was dressed like q street arnb to be wandering about London with a pock- etful of diamonds and admitted to the private office of the chief diamond

Hon. S. W. Hayes, candidate for
supreme Judge Of this district is held
in the very highest esteem by the
citizens of his home town, Chickasha,
and one need not know Mr.. Hayes
very long to understand why this is,
He is young man; man whose ev-

mode Of action save that which bears
the stamp Of equity and right. We

very little Of the democratic strength

And Candidates win Have a Little
More Time to Make Medicine

Oklahoma City, April 2O-Convinc-
ed that it is impossible for a legal
primary to be called for May %, un-
der the Oklahoma primary law, be-
cause of the inability to give the re-
quired 80 days notice, the democratic
state executive committee, yesterday
decided to postpone the date Of the
state primaries until June 8.
The unanimous sentiment Of the
members Of the committee was that
the primary should be held on May
%, il there was any way in which
such primary election could be leg
ally held under the recent decision Of
Judge Burford, knocking out the su-
preme election board as created by
an ordinance Of the constitutional
convention.
The decision Of Judge Burford de-
clares that under the enabling act
the election must in matters conform
as near as possible to the election
laws Of the territory of Oklahoma.
Under the election ordinance al
adopted by the constitutional conven-
tion, there would still have been
ample time to publish the notice Of
the primary and it was under thii
law that the state committee at Tulsa
contemplated calling the primary
Since the provision establishing the
supreme election board has been In
valid, and II is agreed that the elec-
tion laws Of Oklahoma must apply
It has been found necessary to secure
more time in order that the Law
may be complied with,
Another feature Of the 0klahoml
law that influenced the decision fol
postponing the primary is the onl
requiring that all persons who vot'
in the primary in cities OF the frs
class, shall have registered month
preceding the primary election
Under this provision, were the elec
tion held May %, many Of the demo
Gratis OF the Indian Territory citie
would be deprived Of any voice il
the choice Of their party candidate.
The new date postpones the pri
mary election sixteen days. Chair
man Thompson and Secretary Chap
man will commence Immediately il
sending out the notices for the pri
mary to the democratic papers in al
the counties Of the new state. Il
practically all Of the counties one o
more Of the democratic papers hav
agreed to publish this announcement
free Of cost.

POSTPONED TO JUNE 8

ton Of the committee at its last meet
ing" said one Ledru Guthrie, a mem
Der Of the committee from Oklahoma
county today.
cat this meeting the arrangements
for the state convention will be made.
No action will be taken by the com
mittee as to what will be done Dy the
convention. There are two PROPOSE
tions that win be advanced as the
best plans for the republicans in Ok
lahoma to pursue. Both plans have
many advocates and the one thought
to be to the best interest Of the peo-
pie will be adopted.
"A motion viii be made which, in
effect, means that the republicans will
not put out state ticket, declare
against the adoption Of the constitu-
ton, pledge themselves to secure sn-
other enabling act at the next session
OF congress and to remedy the ,F0ndl-
tion Of affairs in which the people Of
Oklahoma are today.
"The other is that complete state
ticket will be put out on a platform
declaring against the obnoxious feat
ures of the constitution, pledging to
rectify the mistakes made by the
democratic constitutional convention
and enact such legislation as win tend
to subserve the best interest Of every
business and the peoples rights"
The time Of holding the state con-
vention is also an important consid-
GRAFTON on which there are conflicting
opinions. It Is the general sentiment
however, that the state COMMITTEES
should meet next week and arrange
for the state convention at the earliest
possible date.

May "a rs Preparations are Made ia
Entertain the Guests in Royal
Style

On May the oath and 25th Chicka-
sha will have the honor and pleasure
of entertaining the bankers Of Okla
homa and Indian Territory in their
annual convention.
Arrangements are already under way
for their reception and the success
full carrying out Of the two days pro-
gram. The bankers of the city held
meeting yesterday afternoon in the
directors room Of the Chickasha Ma
tional bank to make preliminary pre-
parations. The bankers Of the city
are central committee, with Henry
B. Johnson, president Of the First
National bank, as chairman, and are
subject to call at any time to COM
plete and make further arrangements.
At the meeting yesterday afternoon
it was decided that an address of well
come would be made by President
Russell, of the Commercial club, also
addresses by Reford Bond and s. w.
Hayes.
Suitable rooms for holding the as
sembly have not yet been decided on,
but win be within the next twenty
four hours. 1t is a well known fact
that bankers in their conventions get
together for business purposes, al
most entirely and the entertainment
feature is a secondary consideration
but as it has been the custom Of 9TH
er cities in previous conventions tc
provide something along this line
Chickasha will not depart from th'
custom. A ball and smoker are be
ing planned for the two nights iur

not going to be the last by any means
Bat if the city goes after such thing
it is up to the peopl Of the city. t

after they get here. It is estimates
that ever three hundred bankers from
all over the new state viii be in at

lieved that there are hotel accommo
dations for the entire number so tn
citizens should be making arrange
ments to entertain some Of ther
