aCy Board to Appeal

The Waters-Pierce Oil company, OF
ST. Louis, today completed an appeal
to thu omitted States supreme court in
the case, Wherei'i a judgment was
given against the company and in
favor of A. b. DeSelms, of Orlando,
for $4,000 damages for the burning
to death at Orlando, three years ago,
Of DeSelms' wife and two children.
The verdict was given in the dis
trict co1rt and confirmed in the Ok
lahoma supreme court, on the grounds
that the Waters-Pierce Oil company
permitted to be sold from its Guthrie
tanks a mixture of oil and gasoline,
causing an explosion in the DeSelms'
home that burned down the house and
resulted in the death of the three per
sons DeSelms based this case on a
letter written by the district super
intendent to the local agent here, an
torizing him to go ahead and sell the
mixture OF oil and gasoline, the result
of an accident by employees in run
ming portion of a car of gasoline into
tank partly filed with oil. The

Pharmacy Board to Appeal.
The Oklahoma board OF pharmacy
has decided TO appeal to the Oklaho-
ma supreme court from the decision
Of the Logan county district court in
the Injunction case brought by the
Pratt Food company, in which the
stock food law passed by the last
! legislature was knocked out.
Under that law no stock foods OF .
medicinal character could be sold ey
cept by registered pharmacists and
| the pharmacy board was given charge
/ OF the enforcement of the law The
suit was directly based on letters
whi h were sent ont to customers OF
the food company other than drug
gists, threatening them with prose
cutiOn If they continued the sale of
such articles
The court held that the pharmacy
balrd had properly nothing to do
with animal medicines, and that the
4 enforcement of the law would tend to
create q monopoly. Judge Deyereux,
who represented the Pratt Food com.
pany in these cases, says that under
the decision cited by Judge Burford
proprietary medicines in sealed pack
ages. whi,h are allowed to be sold
at all in the territory, could be sold
by other merchants besides the drug.

right 10 rule out such preparations, in
his opinion. brt not to restrict Their

We have heard of no material loss
from the flood, although more or less
hay and some grain has been injured.
There were heavy frosts each night
and some ice was formed and as a
consequence the flow OF water during

The preliminary hearing Of E. J.
Doe, of ,Crary, who is charged with

fore Judge Henry at Devils Lake.
There was large numberN of Crazy
ties in attendance. Witnesses were
put on the stand who testified that
they had bought malt at Boe's place
and that the same was intoxicating.
An attempt was made by the defense
to show that the, chief witnesses for
the state were actuated by a desire
to be avenged for real or imaginary
grievances against the defendant.
When the state rested its case the
defense moved for dismissal of the
action. which was denied. A further
examination in the case was then
waived and the bond of the defendant
was by request continued until the
next term of court.
