DESTINATION OF
CARS CHANGED
Railroad Bill Clerk Charged With
Changing Bill Of LadIne is Miss
ine-Reward offered.

Muskogee, Okla, July 20 n From
railroad bill clerk to potato king in
one day is the record of John Sulli-
van, who is now badly wanted by the
officials of the NJ. o. & G. railroad
Sullivan was in the employ of the
company at their station here as bill
clerk having charge Of the billing
out of cars from this station.
Last week potato grower by the
name of BIodgett loaded two cars of
potatoes, which he gave to the NJ,
%. & G. for shipment to the Gehl
Commission company, in Milwaukee
He received his bill of lading in
proper form and mailed the same to
the commission house.
Last week the potatoes had not
reached their destination. Blodgett
was anxious. The NJ. o. & G. and
the Katy, which also handled the cars
were anxious too.
In the meantime Sullivan had re-
signed his position. and on trans
portation furnished by the NJ, o. & G
had gone to st. Louis.
Before he left, however the rail
road officials allege, he changed the
billing on the cars Of potatoes from
Milwaukee to st. Louis, consignine
the cars to a fictitious Dean Marks
In st. Louis, they allege, he claimed
the potatoes by right of possession OF
the bill of lading. which he himself
made out.
The potatoes sold on the st. Louis
market for something near $400, ac
cording to the reports Of the secre
service men of the Katy
Sullivan still has his freedom al
though there is a reward out for his
capture.

V|N|TA ATTORNEYS
WIN GREAT CASE.
Remarkable Contest Case Finally
Ends With Decision in Favor
Of Original Allottee.

J. G. Starr left last night for Tulsa
to take possession Of the lands re-
Gently awarded to his client, Eva
Waters. in the famous contest case
which was decided in their favor
few days ago by acting secretary OF
the interior Pierce.
This case has been watched with
great interest by the oil men as the
tract Of land in question is one Of the
most valuable IN the Flat Rock field,
north of Tulsa. It has been through
a rather strenuous course in the de-
partment on several trials, and was
finally carried to the president by
Starr q Patten OF this city. The
president instructed the secretary Of
the interior to set aside previous rul-
lngs and hear the case on its merits.
This was done and the decision a few
days ago gave the land to Eva Waters,
seven year old Cherokee citizen.

DO NOT BELIEVE
IRISH GIRLS STORY
Ella oneles Acquitted Of Charge of
Stealing Lace-WiIl Tell Her
story to Grand Jury.

Chicago, ILL.,, July 20.-Ella Gingles
was cleared last night from the charge
of stealing lace. but the story she told
on the witness stand of being white
slave" victim was denounced as un-
true by the jury that freed her.
The verdict in the case was fitting
climax to the peculiar series OF sensa-
tions that have followed the little Irish
lace maker This was the form as
read by the clerk:
1--WE. the jury, find the defendant
not guilty, and we, the jury, further
find that the charges made against
Miss Agnes Barrette were unfounded
and are untrue"
The basis Of the defense made by the
Gingles girl, who was on trial for
stealing lace from Miss Barrette, was
that Miss Barrette and others had at
tackled her and mistreated her in the
Wellington hotel on two occasions last
winter and that the object Of these at
tacks and the animus back Of the theft
charge, was the attempt to sell her to
an unnamed man in Frech Lick
Springs, Ind
The jury reached verdict after
nearly seven hours. A few of the
women who have stood by the Irish
girl since the day her story became
public were there. They arose and
clapped their hands and screamed
when the words mot guilty" were ut
tered, and it was some time before
they realized the import of the last
half of the verdict.
Miss Gingles, who remained the
coolest of the lot, walked up to the
jurors and shook hands with them.
Juror Thomas Mackey, the Oldest man
on the panel. turned to the girl and
said:
Nov, be a good girl, Ella. Go back
to your home in Ireland and be good
girl"
The girl nodded her head and turned
away.
what are you going to do now?''
she was asked as she was leaving the
court room.
Il am going to tell it to the grand
jury" she answered quickly.
When she was asked what she was
going to tell and reminded of the fact
that the jury had said that it did not
believe her story she appeared little
discounted. Before she could talk any
more her attorney and the women hur
ried her away

VT one takes stock of the. summer
fashions of 1909 one must say
that La Mode is in a very gracious
mood this season. To wear what
one feels like wearing seems to be the
order of the day, but along certain di-
versifed lines. 1t is really funny to
see the motley collection of clothes
that hobnob in the most incongruous
manner. The medieval and renais
sance models meet and shake hands
amicably with the directoire and Louis
XVIII. buds and all - well, but when
one hears rumors that at Newport
later on in the summer the Greenaway
gown is going to have vogue, why,
one feels dubious. But we are told
that it is going to be a modernized
Kate Greenaway, and the resemblance
seems to be found in the straight,
scraggly skirt more nearly than in any
other feature. And we are to have
the quaint little bonnet that goes with
it perched on our heads. But we are
immune from further millinery i'm
positions and have reached the calm
that is supposed to betoken a philo
sophie view of the hat situation. To
come right down to it's last analysis,
the Greenaway is nothing more than
a medieval princess frock mounted on
a deep yoke that reaches below the
model I've seen. BY the sartorial suf~
fragette it would be called picturesque,
but the anti would dub it just plain
awkward.
AS another example of the univer-
salty of the summer modes this new
dress is a fine illustration, but as a
frock to be seriously added to ones
wardrobe il is not to be considered. 1t
is meet, right and the bounden duty
of the founce to appear on lingerie
gowns, and it has, and in a very
deprecating way it is being put on
some of our thin summer frocks.
Flounces were assured after the long
run we have had on straight lines, but
one must not jump to the conclusion
that the reign of the extreme styles is
done. for the extremes are to be seen
on all hands in virulent forms. 1t
simply means that we are gradually
evolving others less straight and mar
row and we shall see whether they are
better things
A charming little frock that united
the empire lines with many new fea-
tr1res was shown to me recently. The
material, a delightful marquisette At
white. dotted with glistening, SHIN
mering polka dots. was cut with high
umpire waist line, and over the skirt
which was long and circular, appeared

of carrying it, and a number of other.
wise forgotten doses are taken.
While on hygienic subjects / would
like to put in a plea for the saving
grace of hot water administered in
ternally. 1t will stave off an attack
of indigestion or sudden severe pain
if taken as soon as one feels the at
tack coming on. A nervous eye strain
or headache can be obviated by bath
ing the head and eyes in hot water.
Another business girl is located in
an old fashioned building in which
there is no elevator, and as her desk is
UP four flights of stairs the trip many
times a day is a tiresome one. But
this girl has done away with all
thoughts of those awful stairs by
learning to mount them properly. She
holds her head erect, chest up and
breathes deeply and slowly each time
she puts the ball of her foot on each
step. Watch yourself -ne next time
you go upstairc and see If you climb
up dragging your feet, with head down
and chest caved in. If you do this,
try her way and stop complaining.
Let me tell the girl cashiers that in
handling money they should be very
careful of their hands, washing them
with antiseptic soap before eating or
putting their hands on the face or I'm
the mouth. There is a constant risk
of blood poisoning if precautions
are not taken, and it will be a good
idea to ask a physician for a good an.
tiseptic. In the meantime keep alcohol
handy and rub on the hands
Here is the advice of a girl, not of
the newspaper profession, but one who
has lot of interviewing to do in con-
nection with her work: when 1 am
to have a business interview I sit
down and think over what questions
wish to ask Then 1 put down the
different points on a small visiting
card that I can hold in my hand BY
taking up each point separately and
keeping my head I save much time.
When have a favor to ask in a BUSH
ness way / have that favor very
clearly in mind, for the question al
ways is, Just what do you wish?'

seasons through which she has had to
steer the family boat herself. When
times were hard and things had gone
to pieces in the panic, and her hus-
bands health had given way, she took
charge of affairs, as matter OF
course. The business fell into her
hands for awhile, and she set it all on
it's feet again; a troublesome business
it was, too, although she never talked
about it nor seemed to regard her
management of it as at all extraordi-
nary. 1t was simply the only thing
there was to do. And of course she
had to shoulder all her own family
cares at the same time, and John never
liked to have any one else near him
when he was sick.
Her sons and daughters, growing up.
have always come to her with their
joys and sorrows, their victories and
defeats. And though there be those
