The Egyptians were conversant with
the art Of landscape gardening, thous,,

of the land. Water, however, as an
adjunct was often called into play, for
there was the inexhaustiblc Nile. We
have three plans Of their gardens, as

REPORTS FROM THE
INJURED HOPEFUL
FIVE ARE NEAR DEATHS DOOR
AND CHANCES OF RECOVER
ARE DOUBTFUL.

Reports at late hours last night
heart sufferers are cared for are very
encouraging. only five OF the suffer-
ers are at deaths door. The others
are getting along nicely, say the doc
tors in attendance
Two small girls, Lavina Jones, IL
years old, and Annie Taylor, 10 years
old, have probably the least chances
of recovery, These two little maids
both suffered fractured skulls. Each
was operated on by trephining Thurs
day and the Taylor girl again last
night. Although these two are rest
ing comfortable at this time, there
Is very grave danger of complca-
tons.
William Kern, the brother of Fred
Kern, who was killed, is another who
was operated on yesterday Kern
has serious skull fracture. In the
operation made yesterday. large
clot OF blood was removed. Kern Is
unconscious nearly all of the time,
and If he should possibly recover he
win probably suffer a defective reas-
uning.
Mrs. Granger was operated on yes
terday for internal injuries In the
region Of the heart. These injuries
are very complicated and there is
serious doubt about her recovery.
Mrs, Otis Brown, mother OF the
child who was killed, Is lying at the
hospital In a serious condition. She
has suffered n great nervous shock,
baSides having been injured in the
back and legs.
Mrs, August Taylor, whose chest
was injured two ribs having been
broken and driven into the lungs, is

That no attention was given the
efficiency of Mr.. Masters as an in

that. but rival candidates when they

With the elimination Of considera-
ton Of Mr. Masters candidacy the
names before the board for prominent
consideration were those Of Professor
Mace OF the Purcell schools Profess
sor r. r. Downing of the Claremore
schools; and Frank Barton OF tho
Joplin schools
The self-same mombers of the
board who turned down Superinten-

Mr.. Downing and elected him.

the elimination Of Mr. Masters candi-
dacy and voted for him on the SEQ

enter into the fixed deal cast his vote
for Professor Mace.
Perhaps no action of any school
board in tho state caused such an
Indignation and condemnation on tho
part Of those who heard OF the re-
suit Of the election last night. Many
had feared that the board was play

were well founded
The defeat Of Professor Masters
had been carefully planned and
thought over since the present school
board came into power The machi-
nations smelling TO the heavens with
rank partisan politics We're begun al
most Immediately. Masters was
doomed from the first. Little atten-
ton was paid to the work he had
done In the Tulsa schools, He was not

too hard In establishing the school

HE SAID THE WRONG THING.
That's Why the Drummer Lost thu
Orders He Had Booked.

The drummer sat upon a baggage
truck and waited. The train was late
not uncommonly late, for it was com
mon for it to be behind time.
He had not known this, and had
broken up an exciting game of domi-
noes at the hotel in order not to miss it
Also he had wanted to see Smith & Will
kerson again, to ask if they hadn t bet
ter change their mind about those
goods, but the domino game and the
time of arrival of the train prevented.
Therefore he sat and waited and
smoked and fumed idly and wished he
were hod carrier rather than drum
mer. Business had been bad all week,
and in his pocket was letter from the
firm asking him why he hadn It done
business.
As he sat two men appeared, two. men
he knew, having sold goods to both.
They were arguing fercely.

Then he recognized him. So did the
other.

man; che didn t get across them"
