GUTHRIE LOSES FIGHT.
Judge Declares He Has No Jurisdic-
ton In Oklahoma Case.

Guthrie, Okla, June 24.-Guthrie
lost its preliminary fight in the fed
efal court yesterday when Judge R.
EE. Campbell of the eastern district
dismissed, for want of jurisdiction.
the bill in equity Of w. H, Coyle, a
local property owner asking an in
junction to prevent removal of the
temporary seat of government from
here to Oklahoma City. While the
three days argument took wide range
and covered generally that clause of
the Oklahoma enabling act requiring
1.-THE temporary capital to remain here
uutil after 1913, and upon which the
suit was predicated, the court express
ly reserved any opinion touching
either the part of congress to impose
this condition or whether the same
was binding in view of its acceptance
by the constitutional convention.
The people of Guthrie are disapoint-
ed at the turn the case took. 1t may
be truthfully said that from the day
the case was instituted there was
more or less doubt entertained upon
the jurisdActional question alone
1.-The case is still before the state
court said Judge Frank Dale, one of
the attorneys for Guthrie. land we
will follow our rights there. 1t must
be noted, however, that in passing
Judge Campbell RETAINED from ex-
pressing an. opinion as to- the 1913
clause. We still contend that it is
binding, and feel that Gdthrie's rights
have not been jeopardized in the least
by the, federal court failing to take
jurisdiction in this particular litiga-
tionr> y.
The case pending in the state courts
differs from that before Judge Camp
bell today, in that it was instituted
by County Attorney Hepburn in be-
half of the people, and while as
squarely presenting the issue of va
Iidity of the 1913 clause, also raises
questions of validity of the ballot
title under which the election of |
June II was held.

T.. M. SHIRLEY, SPECIAL AGENT

Having examined great many cot

the fact, and suggest remedies for
preventing them from destroying a
great. deal of your cotton; and if you
Z fbAow out these suggestions you can
grow a fine crop of cotton in SPITE OF

The cotton is now forming as well
as 1 have seen it, and by saving the
squares that it will put on in the next
few weeks, a good crop will be as
sured; and it can be done to very
great extent. The weevils have APP
peared only in sections, of the fields,
and by watching closely they can be
held in check and kept from spread
ing. Where there are children they
may, be hand picked, both. weevil and
punctured squares Many farmers are
doing this now Why not you?
Keep your sweeps going. go over
your cotton every eight to ten days;
don't stop for dry weather; pillow

brush to your single trees, which will
knock many, Of the weevils and pune

the dust mulch, thereby destroying.

surely kill them.
But, if seasons continue. pick the
squares and burn them, for burying
them in moist soil will not kill them
Remember that one, hundred weevils,
destroyed now will prevent thousands
later on, and this will save you from
perhaps one to ten bales of cotton.
1t is up to you to save your crop and
make a good yield. Don't neglect to-
follow but the instructions; go now
and examine your cotton, and if you

MAY HAVE BEEN SLAIN.
Body Found Near White River
Junction Believed to Be
Schittini's.

The skeleton found in the woods
near White River Junction Friday
afternoon, Nov. IS, by party oi
hunters, has been partly identified
MS that of Dominica Schittini, an
Italian employed as coal shoveler
by the Boston & Maine railroad. He
left his brother August 2o with $25o
in his pockets and expressed the
intention OF going back to Italy.
He left home in company with
another Italian of alleged bad repu-
tation and neither has since been
seen.
The brother of Dominica supposed
he was in Italy and had therefore
made no inquiries.
States Attorney E. ]. Buck had
thorough examination made OF the
body and when Clement Schittini
expressed the belief that the body
was that Of his brother, he refused
to discuss the case. All the articles
found on the body are in his charge
and the body will not be buried
pending further investigation.
The skeleton when found was
fully clothed with coat, vest and
trousers, the hat missing. In one
pocket were found three handker-
chiefs, cheap silver watch and a
double chain, an order on an express
agent with legible name, debit slip
for Edison & Chadwick, local
grocery concern, for 95 cents and a
pair of shoes apparently new. The
watch had stopped at five minutes
before 8. A Catholic crucifix was
about the neck. No money was
found.
The body was found within so
feet of highway, and within a
short distance OF the railroad, face
down. If he was murdered, it is
thought he must have been carried
to the spot where the body was
found.
The man had wife and two
children, and mother and four sisters
in Italy, brother Alec in Concord,
N. H., and was 40 years Of age.

THE SUPREME BENCH.
Dignity Of the Court and the Awe II
Always Inspires.

Dignity of the Court and the Awe II
Always inspires.
The life of justice on the bench
of the supreme court of the United
States comes as near being an ideal
way to spend ones allotted span of
years on this sphere as is permitted
in this sadly ordered world. If he be
properly selected the justice loves
his work. What he has to do affords
him the chief pleasure of his days.
He has the consciousness that it is
important work; that as he decides
will affect for good or i'll not only
men now living, but in many in
stances the unborn sons of men.
Inherent in seat on the bench
are great powers and grave respon-
sibilities, which may be exercised in
absolute detachment from all world
ly interests and without fear, favor
or hope of reward. The justice is
far removed from daily temptation,
from opportunities and pleadings
from the demands and exactions of
friendships and from all the little
things that swerve the cold proc
esses of reason in the forming of
the average mans judgments.
However long and intimately one
may be in contact with the supreme
court, it always exacts an involun-
tary trembling of the knees as
mark of respect. 1t is of record
that one lawyer at least tainted
from sheer fright when he arose
for the first time to address the
court. Lawyers who have had much
supreme court practice have told
me that they have never got over
their awe of the court and that they
never rise to address it without
little attack of "stage fright" and
much inward quaking.
The court has long, ancient, hon
orable and high traditions, and its
members do their best to sustain
them. Where men appointed to the
court have not been able to live up
to the high mental standards set by
some of their predecessors, they
have at least been able to insist
upon and demand rigid conforma-
ton to the forms and practices es-
tablished by the court to maintain
its dignitv.-Edward G.. Lowry, in
Harper's Weekly.

The MareehaI Mel Rose.

When Mel, the French general,
was returning home from the scene
of his victories in the war between
France and Austria he received
from a peasant who wished to hon.
or the hero a basket of beautiful
pale yellow roses. One of the stems
the general took to a florist in Paris,
in whose care it remained until it
became a thriving bush covered
with blossoms. Mel then took the
plant as gift to the Empress Eu-
genie. She expressed great admira-
tion for the exquisite flowers and
on learning that the rose was
nameless said:
"Then I'll name it. 1t shall be
the Marechal Mel"
AT the same time she bestowed
upon the astonished general the
jeweled baton. that betokened his
promotion to the high and much
coveted rank of marshal of France.

Windsor's Old Church.

The Old South church in Windsor
is the oldest church in Vermont
standing on the original site and
having been in continuous use as a
place of worship since it was erected
in 1898. Windsor and Rutland were
the first capitals of Vermont, made
so by an act of the legislature in
l79l,which specified that they should
be alternately the residences of the
legislature for eight years. The
building used in Rutland still stands
as dwelling house. but the one in
use in Windsor stood on the site of
the present Old South church.

The largest nugget of gold ever
found, known as the "Welcome''
nugget, was dug, up at Bakery hill,
near Ballarat, in Australia, in the
early days of gold mining in that
country, and was sold for $46, ,625.
1t weighed 2,159 ounces, so that the
price obtained was $21 per ounce.
When melted in London a few
months later it was found to con-
tain more than 80 per cent of pure
gold. 1t was twenty inches long and
twelve inches broad. The two men
who struck it tainted dead away in
the hole they had dug, believing
that they had come upon a whole
"reef" of the solid stuff.
