THE REVIVAL SERVICES
ARE WELL ATTENDED

Yesterday the revival services al
the Methodist church were we'll at
tended, An unusual interest was man
ifested for the first day of the meet
ing Rev. j. NJ Cautren did the
preaching. The music was led by
Evangelist Phillips, whose wife ac-
companies him in his work. Rev Phil
lips introduced whistling into the or
der of music At one point ne said
he wanted every man who had not
"cussed" that day to whistle the song.
All the men did not whistle though
some whistled remarkable WELL It
must be remembered that an expert

Scripture should be fulfilled and whis-
tleing comes under make a joyful
noise unto the Lord"

hearty welcome to every body. He
said he wanted them to come and fee
perfectly at home. That spirit seem
ed to prevade the services of yester
day and a great meeting is expected

the platform for singers. Services will
be held at SIS a. m. and 7:45 p M
Mr.. Phillips announced that he would
give us some of his choice songs to-

ALL RET|CENCE
IN CUDAHY CASE
No Statement From Either of Prin-
cipals-Wonded Man States He
VIII Not Prosecute.
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
Kansas City. Mo-, Mar. John P.
Cudahy, the millionaire society leader
and clubman, who early yesterday
morning assaulted Jerre S. Lillis. bank
president and clubman, will be ar
raigned in police court one week from
today on a charge of assault. Cudahy
attacked Lillis, whom he found in the
Cudahy home, with knife, cutting
his face and body and disfguring him
for life.
Frank Walsh, the Cudahy attorney.
said this morning he did not know
where his client is. AS to whether
or not he had left the city, no informa-
tion could be secured at the Cudahy
home. Members of the family refus-
ed to be interviewed and the sery-
ants referred callers to their employ
ers attorney.
Extreme reticence was a marked
characteristic of everyone connected
with the case today. w. f. Johnson,
attorney for Lillis said: Il don't be-
lieve Lillis would care to make
statement, at least not now. In fact
don't believe he. is in shape to talk
much. He has severe cut or bruise
across the lips that make it difficult
for him to speak"
1t was rumored during this morning
that Lillis had died of his wounds, but
this proved untrue. AT noon, 1t was
reported by the hospital officials that
Lillis had improved since last night.
The exact nature of the wounds could
not be learned. 1t was stated that
Lillis would not prosecute Cudahy and
the public prosecutor, Jost, said he
was unable to say what the attitude of
the state would be.
A score of newspaper men sought
Mrs. Cudahy, attempting to get
statement from her.
| Afo dAbCiHOOuy ME- OuudiiJ was III
duced to make statement Mrs.
Cudahy, in telling of her husbands
attack upon Lillis, declared it was the
elimination of long line of brutal
treatment. This last act, she said,
would result in the separation of her
self and husband Mrs. Cudahy was
lying on davenport in her room as
she made the statement and one of
her eyes was badly swollen. This was
done Saturday night" she said, "and
| have no desire to receive visitors to-
day. 1t was terrible thing that oc-
Cured and it was all caused by an
automobile, new runabout that Lillis
had just ordered" Mrs Cudahy then

Wilmington, Del, Mar 7. The
Forty-fifth coast artillery, located at
Fort Dupont, Del, will be sent to Phil
adelphia to guard the Philadelphia
mint and other government property.
Philadelphia, Mar. THE claim of
the quietest day Philadelphia has
known since the car mems strike be-
gan more than two weeks ago, was
broken last night by series Of dis
turbances in which three persons were
shot, one, girl, fatally, many unruly
persons were severely clubbed by the
police and more than a score of ar.
rests were made.
The turbulence of last night came
as an unwelcome shock to the hopes
of the authorities that a Sunday was
to pass by without serious disorders.
This hope had been fostered by the
days pacific aspect which in itself
had been surprising in view of the fact
that trouble was anticipated with the
starting Saturday of the general SYM
pathetic strike, which union leaders
have called in support of the striking
employees of the Philadelphia Rapid
Transit company.
| Until the disorders which came with
the fall of darkness, the developments
of the day in the strike situation had
been neither many nor important. Con-
ficting claims still continued as to
the number of men who have re-
sponded to the general strike call and
there seems to be no present way to
obtain accurate figures.
The committee of ten, in charge of
the organized strike movement, claims
that 10000 persons in the various
branches of Philadelphia's widely di-
versified industry have LEFT their en-
ployment to demonstrate their sym
pathy with the traction mems cause
and help them to win their fight Fig
ures gathered by the police depart
ment, however, are cited by Director
of Public Safety Clay to support his
previ6us claim that not more than TO-
900 men struck.
The labor leaders claim that $50, 900
men will be out by tonight.
The police heads have been on duty
day and night since the strike began.
sixteen days ago, all of them eating
and sleeping in the city hall. In addi-
ton hundreds of cots have been placed
in the big building for the use of po-
| licemen kept for riot calls and all
these have been fed from nearby res
taurants. The city hall has been prac-
tically on a war footing since the car
mems strike started.
| 1t was stated by city official that
the strike is adding 100000 day to
the expense Of running the city. A
representative of the transit company
said that up to yesterday, tbs begin
ming of the third week of the strike,
the total cost to the company had been
between $75O,O00 and $S0O,00O Asked
how long the company could stand the
expense he said:
THAT is less than $1,OOO,OOO The
company is ready and willing to spend
several millions, if necessary to win
out in this fight 1t is huge price
to pay but we have to pay it to re-
tain the privilege of running the com

URGE TEACHERS TO
ATTEND MEETING
Plans For Great Attendance at First
Meeting of Northeastern Teach
ers' Association.

Urging a large attendance at the
first meeting Of the Northeastern Ok
lahoma Teachers association here ON
March 1926, the county superintend-
ents in charge OF the arrangements
have addressed to all of the superin-
tendents in the twenty counties, the
following letter:
Vinita, Okla,
Dear superintendent: We are anx-
ious to make the first session of the
Northeastern Teachers association a
success, and it will take just three
things to make it so-geod attendance,
a. good program and good entertain
ment.
The good attendance depends upon
you. You can urge your teachers to
be present and they will come-you,
alone, can show them it is worth their
while. 1t is just as necessary for the
school district officers to be present.
1t has been a mistake not to have them
in our state association. Nine-tenths
OF our schools are rural schools, and
employing the teacher and giving her
the proper support is one of the most
important parts in our education.
A large store room about $500
square feet Of floor space, will be CIV
en- us by the Commercial Club for a
display of school work. All schools
are earnestly asked to make display
We shall have plenty Of room for both
cities and districts.
AS for the program, We honestly be-
lieve it is an unusually good one-the
subjects are live and worthy of discus
sion. The success of the program will
depend upon the amount of brain mat
ter brought to bear upon the topics
by you and your teachers.
The city of Vinita is anxious to have
us. They offer to give us auto rides,
receptions, shows, and just about any
hthing else we may want; but we have
insisted that our meeting is for work;
that we will be there for educational
purposes and not have time to accept
too much hospitality.
] Be sure to have your papers give
this meeting as much publicity as pos
sible, and keep it up. It is possible
some of the teachers will fail to see
their names on the program, so may
not be prepared. We should be glad
to have you look over the program and
write and urge every one of your
teachers to be prepared. Try and have
at least one representative for each
district
Now let us get together and work
for the educational good of Oklahoma,
especially Northeast Oklahoma. Send
out the letters and programs to your
teachers and school district officers
and urge them to be present.
Fraternaaly yours,
J. F. GAMBILL,
