Chicago celestals on Trial for .Mur-
der Bring on Trouble.
Chicago, May 24.-All Chinatown Is
under arms and "Melican" and Chi
nese detectives are parading the
streets sacred TO imported josses to
prevent bloodshed. The completion Of
the jury to try Lung. Moy Dong, Hoy
and Harry Lee for the alleged murder
OF Chin Wal, a wealthy Chinese man
DARN, has aroused the Chinese-Ameri-
cans to a degree of excitement that Is
liable to result in additional assassi-
nations.
\ Caucasian jury has been selected.
The evidence will be heard Monday.
In order to testify for their friends
the sympathizers Of both sides today
had to declare publicly what were
their secret sentiments. New
h1st.lities are engendered and the
Celestials have become walking a.
senals.
The court will administer the Chi
nese oath TO many of the witnesses
who have no respect for the white
mans solemn pledge.
The Celestial swearing is done by
means OF breaking a China saucer as
symbolic OF the fate a 2erjurer In
vokes against his own soul in case a
witness becomes false to his oath.

To the Women of the state.

To the Women Of the State.
When 1t was my pleasure some
six years ago to visit the then two
territories, | carried away great en-
thusiasm for the possibilities of the
coming state and most cordial MEM
ories of the women and their work
in the progress OF the commonwealth.
The territories have come into their
own and while the organized women's
work has kept steady pace with the
Development and advancement, It is
perhaps still TO come to its best
through that ulty that alone can
make strong and waste not.
II has been my observation in the
large states that while state fedora
lion has formed the 'unity," there
has been great wisdom in the "diver-
si'y" of district federations, creating
50 many working centers that the
very edges were not so far from the
great center as to lose vital interest.
can not but hope Oklahoma may
accept some such plan as shall hold
the activities of all it's women, and
make it, through woman's organized
club work, a well-mothered state.
The home and the state. each and
both, are in the keeping of the wo-
men as well as the men and they
will be blessed only as the common
citizen first makes himself intelll-
gent and then acts consistently and
conscientiously. My greetings and con-
gratulations.

Kitchen minded" is an epithet APP
piled TO women who are too much

word is evidently meant as re-
proach. 30 doubt there are women
who give too much time to the
kitchen. as there are others who give
too little. Who will undertake to
decide Just how much time is
enough? That a woman should grow
to like the place in which she passes
most Of her time is not strange.
