NEW INSTITUTION IS
STARTED ON CAREER
Marks Era In History Of State

With the assembly room of the new
Iigh School building crowded with stu
dents and visitors, with addresses by
State Superintendent Cameron, Presi-
den Abernethy and leading citizens,
the Oklahoma Industrial Institute and
College for Girls was formally opened
this morning.
Following the singing of America, .
President Abernethy introduced Rev.
Andrew P. Johnson, who conducted the
devotional exercises, prefacing his
prayer with brief but very practical re-
marks to the students, in which he
urged the importance of making use
of every opportunity
Mr. Abernethy then made brief adj
dress, in which he dwelt ON the pur-
poses Of the school and the great fu-
ture before it and also took occasion
to thank the school board, the mayor
and all the citizens of Chickasha who
have rallied to the support of the insti.
tuition 1T is the purpose of this insti-
tuition TO elevate and dignity the indus,
trial branches as well as literary stud
les and the fine arts, said he I'VE
want to teach the girls to be as well
prepared for and to take just as much
pride in preparing and serving a meal
as they would in playing well on the
piano" In 1885 the state of Aississip
pi appropriated $4,000 to found her
girls college. the speaker said. and to
day that state has thirteen buildings
on her l. l. & c. campus with $l00O.0O0
invested in them In five years he
thought the school here should have
from 500 to 500 students.
Cameron Speaks.
State Superintendent Cameron ar
rived on the morning train and the
opening exercises were in progress
when he entered, receiving a fine ova-
tion. He was the last speaker on the
program Mr. Cameron said it would
have been a great mistake not to open
the school this year and complimented
the people OF Chickasha upon their en-
terprise and generosity in raising
funds to start the institution. He had
no doubt that the state would make
good ali that Chickasha advanced to
support the school. The speaker dwelt
on the possibilities of the l. l. & G..
predicting a great future for it.
MIR. Cameron stated that the board
of regents would meet next week at
McAlester for the purpose Of finally
passing on the plans and specifications
for the main building Bids for con-
struction will then be advertised for
and it is expected that the work will
be under way by Nov l.
other Speakers.
Mayor Edwards said in part. This
school is a great enterprise for Chick
asha and Grady county. but its bene-
fits to Chickasha win be naught com
pared to its benefits to the daughters

PLEA FOR PHlLPoTT

Editor, The Press-Please allow
me space in your columns in an
swer to article of August 4.
Would say as a citizen of Spo-
kane or as one of many that the
citizens of Spokane could do no
more noble and just act than to in
tercede in behalf of poor, unfor-
tunate, Mr.. Philpott. He is to be
led to the scaffold on September
II to pay the penalty for crime
which l do not believe any man
can say he is guilty of beyond all
reasonable doubt.
Therefore, | say, as citizen of
Spokane, let every citizen in the
state of Washington intercede in
behalf of this poor soul, who must
go to the gallows on purely cir
cumstantial evidence, as 1 under
stand it. Remember what the good
Books says: 1T is better to have
a milestone tied about our necks
and sunk into the depths of the sea
than offend an innocent one"
| hope all citizens of the United
States will raise their voices
against capital punishment SO far
as circumstantial evidence goes.
How many men have gone to the
scaffold innocent of crime? | may
be wrong. but if so, pardon me.

WANTS cIGARETs BANNED

Editor, The Press-Is there such
a thing as law in this state pro-
hibiting cigaret smoking, or is 1t a
bluff? When that law was passed
the good citizens of this city ex.
pected to see the end of cigaret
smoking, but what has it accom-
plished? 1t is true there is less
smoking than before, but there is
no reason why there should be any.
And daily, all over the town, on
every street corner, We see men
defiantly smoking cigarets in plain
sight of the police officers.
don't think the trouble is with
the law. The only trouble l can
see is that it is not strict enough;
it ought to prohibit the use of to-
bacco under the age of 81. A lot
of people are bowling about per-
sonal liberties. 1t is personal lib
erty to let one man kill another.
and the same with tobacco. 1t is
personal liberty to use tobacco and
other things which ruin manhood
and dwarf a nation. 1t is worse
than murder, in which only one
generation is killed, in the fact
that it leaves its trace on all sue
eeeding generations. Shall We
give up the fortress we have gain
ed? No! Fortify it by enforcing
this law and eventually stop the
use of tobacco altogether.
The trouble is with the police
force. What are they for, if not
to enforce the law. And do they
pretend not to see it? II they do

$117 BUYS
A PIANO

But you will have to hurry, for
we only had limited number that
we could offer at this price, and 1t
is not hard to sell a genuine bar
gain. 1t is really surprise to
come in and see these pianos. If
you had made up your mind to pay
$3.50, we could sell you this piano
just about as easy for that amount,
because it is made to sell for that
money and offers good value for
that price Now We are not going
to offer $3.50 pianos for $117 every
day in the year, so you had better
come down right now.
If you want to pay little more
or want more fancy case, we
have them at $137, $176. $208 and
so on up to the finest plano made
In the world, and we can make you
a bargain on that, too.
You don't have to be made Of
money, either, when you buy one
of our pianos. 1t is not necessary
to wait and save up a bank &C
count. Just bring in few dollars,
say about SIS, and the balance you
can pay at $1.25 or more per week.
Sounds easy, don't it-and it is
easy. There are thousands of peo-
pie buying pianos from our differ
emit stores on just that plan. You
pay as you play, and enjoy the fun
while paying for it.
OF course, if you don't like the
piano after you get 1t, that would
be bad for us, because you might
say unkind things about us to your
friend who is going to buy; so If it
doesn't prove satisfactory, bring 1t
back, or, rather, we will come after
it and give you one in exchange
that Is all right.
Now, don't get the idea that
these pianos are as cheap as the
price. That might be so with some
dealers, but not with Eilers. A
piano that was not really worth
more than Sill would be worth
nothing, and We could not afford to
handle them. You save fully one
third of your money by buying now
that's all. Tomorrow may be too
late.

Bound over to the superior court
to face further trial, charged with
criminal offense against Rena
Tompkins, age IL years, on the
very day his regiment was leaving
for the islands, was the expert
ence of William j. Monk, soldier,
yesterday. Monk asked, two weeks
ago, when his case was continued,
that the continuance be made to
an earlier date, as his company at
Fort George Wright was to leave
August 4. He was told then that,
in view of the grave charges
against him. it was scarcely prob
able that he would be allowed to
go. His bond has been fixed at
$4,000. His brother soldiers sail
for the Philippines tomorrow, hav-
ing left here for the coast yester-
day.

when he was wabbling, and not a
club would take him.
Seemingly Reulbach was an ap-
plicant for membership in the once
was club, but when everything
seemed darkest he began winning,
and his splendidly consistent work
has kept the Cubs in second place,
when, had he wavered, nothing
would have held the team up.
Reulbach defeated New York
July %, having won nine straight
games, during which he allowed
but AZ hits and seven runs. Instead
of going back he is better than
ever, and Chance is now using him
in the games likely to be most
desperately contested.

A big sensation has been caused
in the Canadian northwest by the
action of a Winnipeg attorney in
bringing suit for $4,000 against
the Canadian Pacific railway for
services rendered in settling q
strike on that road. AS the strik.
ing employees were compromised
into what was virtually a defeat by
the attorney, the men are very
anxious that the case be brought to
trial so that they may learn just
how they were buncoed and who
