The Elderly w oman's
Wardrobe.

Again and again has the cry been raised
by despairing members OF the gentle sex,
''Ali the fashions are designed for the
slender or the young; nobody cares what
the elderly woman wearsi'' Certain It is
that the woman who has passed her sixth
decade should not essay huge hats, bril-
liant colors nor startling patterns On
her the plated walking skirts with broad
bias bands are quite as ridiculous as are

Responding to the above appeal Of
William ]. Bryan, the Express today
announces that is it ready to receive
dollar donations for the democratic
campaign fund.
OF course If any one feels disposed
to give more than dollar, it will be
entirely acceptable There is nothing
in the election law to prevent one
from giving 500 if he wants TO.
Donations will not be limited to the
city Of chickasha but viii be accepted
from all parts of the earth from
Cape Horn to the great wall of China
and back again. Every democrat Of
Grady county is especially invited to
contribute his mite to the fund that is
needed to insure democratic victory.
It IS conceded that the republicans
will have almost unlimited funds at
their disposal this year-the trusts
and milionaires viii dig it up. Dem.
ocracy must rely for It's sinews Of
war upon the free win offerings of the
plain people.
A strict account Of every dollar will
be kept with the names of the donors,
and all will be forwarded to the prop
er custodians
Grady county, the stronghold Of de-
mocracy must do her part. Let every
loyal democrat respond to the call.

81 wish every democratic
newspaper would commence Il e
collection Of a fund from it's
own subscribers. There are very
few democrats who could not af-
ford to make small subscrip-
tion, and the people will never
be able to control the govern
ment until they take upon them
selves tne burden Of supplying

few men furnish the money to

viii exert and undue influence

= seems that we have reach
ed the end Of corporate contribu.
tons, and that IL a step in ad-
vance, but the individuals who
control these favor-seeking cor
porations may still dominate poll
tics by furnishing the sinews Of
war. The democratic party has
struck at this system by limit
ing contributions to $4,000 and
providing for publicity before
election. The Republican party
has so far refused to join with
us on this proposition, but public
sentiment may yet compel 1t to
do so. ! have no doubt that the
democratic party will receive
contributions from more individ.
uals than ever contributed to
any campaign, and there is no
reason why the entire amount
should not be contributed bv the
masses.
III every democratic paper
will take the matter up and lend
a helping hand we will soon
have money enough in the treas.
ury to provide for legitimate
campaign work, and that is all
we want. william ]. Bryan.

The youngsters of Harlem evolved
recently a game that is enjoying great
popularity among them A coin is
placed on a crack in the sidewalk and
the two players stand opposite each
other and at an equal distance from
the crack, usually upon the next one.
"A rubber ball is then thrown at
the coin and caught on the bounce
by the opposing player The coin. or
its equivalent, becomes the possession
Of the player hitting it. 1t is a gam
bling game. Of course, but that is
probably what gives it the vogue 1t
enjoys.--New York Sun

a one-hit game sprung on the egu
lars so early in the season was a little
surprise yesterday. Little Mr.. Keefe
will nave to be classed as one of the
real box artists this year. One scratch
hit was all that was registered off
his profferings. Friend Frilrs slow box
work did not t~antalize the Beavers, for
they waited and wobbled as long as
Frill wanted them to. Against such
pitching as Mr.. Keefe's the Tigers did
not have a chance. They simply walked
right in, turned aroun n walked
right out again. This little program
was the only thing they did well yes
terday.
In the field Mr.. Frill did not get sup
port that will keep him awake nights
thinking about it. Six large misplays
were the sum total of the Tigers fall
downs. Nearly all of them played a
part in the run-getting of the Beavers.
The usually reliable Sharpe made his
first misplay of the season yesterday.
Other sinners in this respect were Null
len, Mailing, McIlveen I'M Engle.
S%tallings ralled the batted order fore
and aft in the hope that it would
brighten the Beavers. But it did not,
Mullen, who is able to get on bases
oftener than any of the other players,
was put in as the lead-off. Jimmy did
not get any further than at the bat,
striking out three times and going out
easily on an infield tap. Stallings
figured that Josh DeVore could lay
'em down with the best of them, and
he vas put in second place. If Mullen
had gotten on first Josh might have
laid a few down, but he did not. Spike
McIlveen, with the speed and hitting
ability that is calculated to make him
a star some day, filed in third place.
Then followed Hack" Engle and Bud
Sharpe. Drake came next, and from
second place Mailing dropped to
seventh.
But all of the changes did not work
as well as expected. Manager Stallings
was among those present in the grand
stand at the invitation of Pat Powers
who apparently will hold the invitation
open until the Beavers leave town.
George T. promises more new men
from the big leagues soon. He will hold
a council of wal tomorrow with some
of his big league friends and tell then
of his plight.
But there's hope for today's game
Al Pardee is the rescuer for h Tigers
The big boilermaker has been troubled
with a sore arm, but will be able TO &C

of the season, so far. A pitchers bat
tie from the start between FROSTY
Bill' Duggleby, the dc Philadelphia
and Pittsburg box worker, and Del
Mason, who is always one of the best
bets in the Eastern League, the teams
went to the ninth inning with only n
tally. and that made by Rochester.
In that session the sun hit Frosty
Bilp' pretty hard and he melted for a
moment. Quick to take advantage OF
the situation, the Shelters tailed the
tying run. Then the battle went on to
fourteen innings, and the Broncos got
over the big one which won the game.
Joe Bean, in his anxiety to capture the
game, made a mess of a drive, and
Batch, who had opened the session
with a single, scored.
"Frosty Bilp' had a shade the better
of Del Mason, but it Vas only a shade.
The Lockport wonder allowed but ten
hits in fourteen innings, and most OF
these were widely scattered.
Buckenberger tried Heinie Batch at
third BASE instead of Lennox and put
Campbell, the utility man, in left field.
The change worked well, as Campbell
got two of the Broncos' ter hits.

Hoodooism in Newark.
No matter what people outside of the
sporting world MAJ think of insane en-
thusiasm, as the crank calls it, there is
still existing in the heart of the en-
thusiast a fondness for grasping at
every little foible to fasten a cause FOR
effect. In other words, the sporting
element has always a reason to hand
you for certain results. / sat alone
yesterday at the baseball park, trying
to figure out the Gaseous conditions Of
the crepe-colored clouds, when | was
aroused from my mental stupor by a
husky-voiced chap who was carrying
on an animated conversation with a
man dressed in blue. on whose coat
collar were the letters "P. S. c." indi-
eating he was a trolley employee. From
what l could hear. this chat ran some
thing like this:
