WHATCLUB WOMEN ARE DOING
Young Women's Christian Association
Building Opens First of Year.
CLASS WORK TO WAIT UNTIL THEN
Mrs. Ernest w. Patterson of st. Louis
Appointed Chairman of General
F~ederatiOn's Art Committee
succeeding Mrs. Sherwood.

The following announcement from the
Young Women's Christian association will
be Of interest to the many women of the
city who had planned tosenter the a~ssocia-
tion's gymnasium and educational classes
this fall
The building committee is sorry to re-
port that the new building will not be
ready for use this fall. At least three
months work will still be needed upon
the building before II can be ready for
occupancy. The mmit feels this will
be a great disappointment not only to the
board of directors and s%ecretarial force,
but to every member of the association,
especially to those who were looking for
and gymnasium this fall. The committee
confidently hopes to have the building open
in time for the second term Of the years
work which begins at New Years; So
many delays nave been occasioned by
waiting first for one thing and then for
another. The peculiar construction and
arrangement of the building has caused
much of the delay, We find upon making
Investigations that association buildings
are much slower in construction than
other buildings because, unlike a large
warehouse, office building, OF hotel. there
are so many different kinds of departments
to be arranged for. Our gymnasium in
in a peculiar way; then the auditorium
with It's beautiful gallery is no small item
In our building. Taking these into con-
sideration and all the parlors and library
and club rooms, with one floor given to a
cooking school, and the top floor to a
dining room. one may see that a great
deal OF time must be given for such a
building. We have been in such a hurry
to get out OF our present rooms and into
the new that we have been very hopeful
that we might get in before the beginning
OF our fall work. One thing we are very
glad TO state and that is that there is no
disappointment whatever about what the
building will be like when IL is finished
The nearer II grows TO completion the
more perfect the entire arrangement seems
10 ha and QE NE study nNhaH hnf1ANnnu quar-

for the architect and committee to go

lieve that We shall AVE the most uD-to-

WIFE SUES
FOR DIVORCE
ONE OF DISCOVERIES OF
FAMOUS GLEEN POOL
is DEFENDANT

Everybody in Oklahoma has heard
Of Frank Chesley, millionaire oil plung-
er, who won fame in connection with
Robert Galbraith, when they opened
the famed Glenn oil pool near Sapulpa.
He Is a remarkable man and news of
the divorce proceedings brought by his
wife Is surprise to all friends
throughout the state The matter is
fully set forth In the Tulsa Democrat:
One of the most important suits filed
In the district court since statehood is
the divorce suit filed by Nellie A, Ches-
ley against Frank c. Chesley, the
wealthy Tulsa oil man. In the peti.
ton filed in the suit Mrs Chesley
makes grave accusations and asks for
many things. According to the petit
tion the following conditions exist;
The couple We're married in Sapulpa
some years ago and as a result OF their
marriage one child was born, a boy,
now an infant of tender years. The
couple have lived as man and wife
since their marriage, in Tulsa and
other Oklahoma towns. Mrs. Chesley
states, for her cause of action, that
the oil king committed adultery with
one Jennie G. Hampton I'm San Antonio.
Texas, on or about April 18th, 1908,
and divers other times. She says that
since she learned OF the co-habitation.
which was not with her consent, she
has not lived with Chesley
The petition also states that Chesley
Is a heavy holder OF oil property and
large stakeholder in different large
firms, such as insurance companies,
etc. She says that his holdings in all,
including Tulsa real estate will exceed
$1,000 900 She also states that he
will very likely dispose OF some of his
possessions unless he is enjoined and
restrained BY the court
Besides asking for the divorce. Mrs.
Chosloy asks for the custody Of her
child and the protection of the court
in Keeping her boy, as well as a reas-
enable share of her husbands property,
an alimony OF $500 a month and ST 900
Tor the costs of suit Including attorney
fees Mrs Chesley's attorneys are Car
roll e. Walker and Kien a Grimes
The Chesleys wera separated once
before, and making up their differences
were remarked Sometime before the
recent difficulty arose. Chesley, himself
flied a divorce suit against his wife,
and when she threatened 10 file a
counter petition, he withdrew his suit
MIR Chesley is one of the dlscoyerera
OF the famous Glenn pool oil field and
had 1t not been for the courage and
pluck of himself and Robert Galbraith,
the great oil fields OF this section
might not now be a reality.

New York, April 30 Social equality
and intermarriage between the races
were advocated last night at a banquet
|of the Cosmopolitan society Of Greater
New York, where twenty white girls
and women dined side by side at
the tables with negroes. Whether by
accident or design, all OF the white
women save three found, when they
reached the tables in peck's French
restaurant in Fulton street that the
seats beside them were 10 be occupied
BY negro men Many OF the men were
black as coal
Rev Madison C. Peters, who had in
tended to speak TO the society, re-
mained only long enough TO view this
startling '4eating arrangements In
spite of promises that he would return
and speak DR.. Peters failed to come
back and the speech was not delivered.
Miss Mary White Ovingtou, who has
been prominent in settlement work
and whose father is proprietor of the
Hotel St. George, in Brooklyn was
the only white girl who occupied a
seat by the speakers table. Negroes
were clustered all about her On her

and which later attracted attention by
'preachings OF polygamy
The social equality Of the affair
acted like new wine upon the party,
two-thirds Of whom were negroes. The
free license Of the speeches was re-
ceiVed with loud outbursts. Groans
greeted the names Of Roosevelt, Taft
and Bryan, and wild applause followed
the mention Of socialism.
But the greatest demonstration was
drawn out By direct or indirect alln-
sion to intermarriage. whether through
the gentle discussion OF social equal
ity" as spoken by Miss Oyington, or
the broad. bald advocacy of the direct
intermarriage.
HAMILTON Holt struck the keynote of
the feelings OF the negroes when he
said
"Intermarriage, II continued long
enough. would solve the race problem.
i do not believe that the white men
would be so anxious 10 marry the me-
gro women as would the negro men TO
wed the white girls; but this would
continue the negro man marrying the
white woman, until they would gradu-
ally bleach or until the race would run
out"

Continuing. Mr. Holt spoke Of pres
ent conditions in the South. saying
conditions are going TO get worse In
the South before they get better. When
the negro people get education, the
whites In the South will have TO rec
Ognize them az their equals.
A great outburst OF applause and
handclapping greeted this statement.
