BOLD ATTEMPT
At JAIL DELIVERY
SIX SHOOTER AND BOX OF CART.
RIDGES DISCOVERED AT JAIL
MONDAY MORNING.

Early Monday morning while Uncle
Pete Gillian, one of the guards at the
county Jail, was making his rounds he
discovered a brand new six shooter to
which was attachet box of cart
ridges lying upon the window sill
within easy reach of any one from the
inside, he confiscated the gun and in
formed the other guards of his discov-
cry.
In a few moments Jake Lewis call
ed to the guard and asked permission
to go to the bath room which was
granted, upon his return he passed by
and paused near the window where
the gun was found and went back to
his cell. Sheriff Akers took the weap-
G and began an immediate investiga-
ton as to where it came from. Tax
ing the number of the gun he began
the search and finally succeeded in
learning that that particular weapon
was purchased from Bivens, Cohrn
and Frensey of this city by one Gus
Pape, a bricklayer employed upon the
new court house building, he was ar
rested and placed in the county Jail,
where he is at present pending further
investigation.
The suposition is that 1t was the IN
tention of Jake Lewis to get the gun,
overpower or kill the guard and as
many more as opposed him and make
get away, and but for the vigilance
OF Uncle Pete Gillian, no doubt would
have succeeded.

Trenton, n. j., Sept. 20,-The repub-

after noon today. After heated dis
cusslon of the platform, Attorney Gen
eral Edmund Wilson was presented as
state committees choice for tempo
rary chairman.
In a speech, he referred to The
Flaming Roosevelt" and the wise
and tactful Taft.
He said there were two kinds OF in
surgency, the kind that fights in the
party and the kind that figths without.
Two main things are responsible for
insurgency, he said, Cannonism and
the Tariff. Concerning Cannonism,
he said no man is bigger than the
party and that if congress rules are
too drastic, they should be righted.
He defended the present tariff, say
ing that if it needed changing, they
should not be made by enemies of
protection.

Can Negroes be Jurars7

A question may be raised in the dis
trict court at any time during the
two weeks criminal session which be
gan today as to the eligibility of the
five negroes summoned for jury duty
to serve N that capacity. The law
requires that all jurors must have
the qualifications of electors. This
question was raised in the police
court at Tulsa, Saturday, in the cases
of l.. H. Harvey, a negro Baptist
preacher and o. E. Crane, another
negro. Both were arrested for refus-
al and failure to pay their 1910 poll
tax. They pleaded that under the
law only qualified electors were liza
able for the poll tax and that since
the adoption of the grandfather
clause they were not qualified elec-
tors. Police Judge Houston held the
pleading good and discharged the
prisoners.-Muskogee Times Demo

WILL CARTER COUNTY
HAVE AN EXHIBIT
FUNDS MUST BE RAISED AT ONCE
TO INSURE A DISPLAY AT THE
STATE FAIR.

Whether Carter county viii have an
exhibit at the Oklahoma State Fair
that begins on the eth Of this month
remains entirely wluh the citizens of
the city and must be decided before
tomorrow afternoon. Under the direc-
ton of w. p. Poland and few able
assistants most magnificent display
of the products of the farm of Carter
county has been gathered and is at
present stored in the Doak-Robison
building on West Main street, Mr.. Po-
land said yesterday that there was
not near all the stuff that he intended
to exhibit at Oklahoma City, in fact
there would be a full carload, but it
was going to require about $3.50 to
take the display there and unless the
money was forthcoming at once there
would be nothing shown at the state
fair this year from this county.
A committee got busy this morning
and It is expected that before night
the necessary funds will be secured.
The collection Is one of which any
county could be justly proud and in all
probability If taken to the State Fair
will come off with first honors for
county exhibits.

pecans are cultivated and the indus
try is highly profitable. p. b. Nc
Clurg of San Saba county, well
known grower, claims that he has one
tree that made $3.50 worth of pecans
last year.
Some idea of the return may be
gained from the fact that yield of a

by planting the trees thirty feet apart
49 trees will grow to the acre. A dol
lar a tree is the estimated yield when
they first begin to bear and expert
growers claim that for each year
thereafter, up to twenty years, the
value of the crop increase S1.00 year
for each tree. They figure from $500
to s400 an acre as an average.

pecan ranks first as table nut and
first in food value over all other nuts
