WAITER TELLS SENSATIONAL
STORY OF THE EXPLOSION

Phoenix, Ariz.. Nov. 5.--A sensa-
tional story of participating In the de-
struction Of the Los Angeles Times
building was told by Edward Gilham,
a waiter in a Chinese restaurant, at
the Salvation Army meeting Thursday
night. Gillian was Immediately ar
rested, but Friday denied the truthful
ness of the story, saying that he was
drunk.
Gillian said that he was one of the
seventeen blindfolded men who drew
lots at the Los Angeles union head
quarters and that he was one of the
three chosen to blow up the Times
building. He said that the plan was
to blow up the paper after 1t went to
press, but some of the employees, on
connecting the wires, caused the ex
plosion to occur shortly after 1 O'Clock
| in the morning. In Los Angeles he
was known as King.

the day before election wholesale
charges were made in Mr.. Creager's

untrue, but which appeared at such q
late date that you were unable to en-

election in the last campaign.

SWEET REVENGE
FOR TULSA HIGH
Locals Defeated For First Time in
Two Years on the. Local
Gridiron.

In what was considered by many as
the most spectacular game ever played
on the local gridiron Vinita high school
met defeat at the hands of the fast
Football team of the Tulsa high school
yesterday afternoon.
This was the first defeat for Vinita
on the local grounds in two years. The
victory of Tulsa may be accredited to
the forward pass, for in that depart
ment alone were they equal to the
local warriors. Both of Tulsa's touch
downs were the result of the forward
pass, the first ON neatly executed
pass on the part of Tulsa and the Sec
ond on an intercepted forward pass by
Vinita, which Erwin, the sturdy left
half back on the Tulsa team caught
on his own goal line and ran the en-
tire length Of the field for touch
down. This was the real sensation Of
the game.
The playing of the Tulsa team was
the most open ever attempted here.
This fact furnished the large crowd
ample opportunity to cheer. The new
style of play fooled the Vinita team
during the first two periods and the
Tulsans crossed the locals goal twice
before yinita awoke to the fact that
Tulsa was in the game to win. Dur
ing the last half the playing of Vinita
was superior to that of her opponents.
In fact the visitors gained their dis
lance but once, except by use of the
forward pass. In punting Smith best
ed Young easily.
The stars of the locals were Scott
Elliott and Smith. The latter making
a sensational sixty yard run through
the Tulsa team, after capturing punt
Britt and Wright were great on de
fense and to their prowess was due
the breaking up of several Of Tulsa's
formations.
The playing of John Young, quarter
back of the visitors, was easily tn
best of the visiting team. Cool ant

CANTRELL REPLIES

box for a platform, and the anti-pro-

come to town to make.
When he had found dry goods box
down an alley, he came out on Wilson
street and started to talk. When the
Chieftain reporter passed on down the
street, he was telling the crowd that

them to eat liver.

an anti-prohibitionist and to let whis-
key alone. don't know how many

heard it all the way from two to twen-

you've got some. And I'd rather take

DR.. CRlPPEKs APPEAL FROM
CONVICTION IS DENIED

London, England, Nov 5.--Dr. Grip
pen was denied an appeal today. 4
great crowd gathered at New Bailey
to hear the application for an appeal
from the conviction Of murder and the
death sentence. Or. Crippen stood In
the dock very pale, evidently having
lost strength since the conviction. His
counsel based it's claim on three things.
that the Jurors were allowed to leave
Iccurt without guard during the trial
that the body in the cellar was never
completely identified, that the Crowns
rebuttal evidence was improperly adj
mitted. The evidence offered did not
satisfy the Crown that any OF the three
grounds was sufficient for an appeal.

regarding a strict enforcement of the
treaty stipulations. While in Okla
homa several weeks ago Mr.. Ballin-
ger learned of the situation.
1T is doubtless true that in some
parts of the state the prohibition law
has been laxly enforced" he wrote
