MECHANICS ARE
IN DEMAND
PLENTY OF WORK IN ARDMORE
AT PRESENT-3UlLDlNo AC.
TiviTY GREAT.

John White, architect of the new
high school building, stated yester-
day that the work was progressing
nicely at present, but there was a
woeful lack of mechanics in the city
at present and that fifteen more
could be used on the building to a
good advantage. Some time ago the
work was practically suspended on
account of lack of material but this
has been overcome and the stone
is being furnished as fast as it is
needed.
The building activity in this city
at present is greater than for some
time. Chas. Fraley has under con-
struction several brick cottages, as
well as a business house on A street
northeast, and other contractors
seem to be busy, with the result
as before stated that carpenters and
bricklayers are hard to procure fol
the work.

BULL MO0SER
FAILS TO APPEAR
DISAPPOINTED BUNCH OF TEDDY
FOLLOWERS AT COURT HOUSE
LAST NIGHT.

There was a small and disappointed
gathering of Bull Moosers at the court
house last night and the reason OF their
gloom was this:
1t had been advertised that a gen.
uine old-fashioned Bull Moose from
old Virginia would be here with the
college talk at o'clock to tell them
that the Moosers as a whole were all
to the merry and that Teddy, the
great and only, was the original Bull
Moose of them ALL but alas for fond
hopes! The Mooser failed to arrive
and the committee up to late hour
last night were at a loss to account
for his non appearance. Ira Culp,
the speaker to appear was to have
been at Madll tonight but whether
his train was derailed or whether
some socialist endeayored to emulate
the example of their breed in his tar
get practiye on the chief Mooser at
Milwaukee last week was not learned,
but this much Is certain-there was a
disappointed bunch at the court house
last night when it was announced that
there would be nothing doing in the
way of speechmaking.

MEET At COURT
HOUSE TONIGHT
COUNTY CHAIRMAN WANTS TO
HAVE THE LOCAL COMMIT.
TEES GET TO WORK At ONCE.

Tonight at the assembly room OF
the court house the committees ap-
pointed at yesterdays meeting will
meet and discuss plans for the com
ing celebration to be held here on
November 2.
1t is the earnest desire of the
county chairman that every man
whose name appeared in that list
be present and try to do something
toward paking that , political event
in the history of the county.
In speaking OF the work contem-
plated, Chairman Apple said this
morning, 81 have done everything
in my power to get the local organ
ization interested in this matter but
am not getting the cooperation
from them that | ought am
aware that for the past week the
citizens of the city have been busy
with the arilroad proposition, which
is a thing that We all need and
which we all worked for, but now
that this is settled there is no
reason why the voters of the city
should not turn their attention to
the coming election and try and
make the coming celebration sue
cess from every standpoint, and for
this reason / want it impressed up
on the public through the columns
of the paper that expect every
democrat who has a spark of civic
pride to meet with me at the court
house tonight and perfect plans for
the coming celebration. We need
little money and We need lot OF
work and it is not right for us to
expect a few to bear the burden for
the benefit of many If we all get
together the cost to each will not be
noticeable and I hope to see the
biggest crowd ever assembled to
meet at the court house tonight to
perfect these plans.

ENTHUSIASM
IS LACKING
VOTERS ART NOT TAKING INTER-
EST ENOUGH IN COMING
ELECTION.

Old General Apathy seems to lie in
the saddle in this county at present
and unless something is done by the
democratic organization in every pre-
cinct and done quickly the democratic
majority stands a chance of being ma
terially reduced at the coming elec-
ton.
At Provence last night Judge Free
man spoke to a small audience where
it should have been a large one, and
the precinct committeeman are warn
ed that when speakers are assigned
them for a certain time it their
duty to see that the voters are brought
out. Chairman Apple has notified
hvery committeeman in the county to
use every effort possible to have a
good crowd out to hear the speakers
and he hopes that his instructions
will have the desired effect in the
future. Judge Freeman is to address
the voters at Norris Chapel tonight
and he has been assured that good
crowd will be on hand to hear him
speak.

Before the chauffeur had time tO open the door of the car, or even before the machine had stopped. man, apparently very much excited, jumped out and helped jauntily attired young woman to the ground. The couple ran quickly up the steps of the parsonage and when Mrs. Walworth came to the door, the the man breathlessly said, We want to get married quick. Is the parson homer" Yes, the parson was at home and in a few moments was ready to perform the ceremony, all questions having been sat isfactorily answered. While the prepara- tions were in progress the man showed great lmpatience, while the young wo- man seemed almost as anxious, twisting her handkerchief and regarding a big solitaire engagement ring that looked as though 1t might just have come from the jewelry store. The doctor lost no time, for he had seen many bridegrooms who were just as anxious before. After he had ascertained that both were over the legal age, ,and, according to the cynic. ''old enough to know better" Dr. Wal worth proceeded with the marriage. the pair man and wife the door bell rang. The bridegroom started nervous and the bride shrank close to him, while he put his arm around her as though co protect her from unseen danger. Dr. Walworth threw in first speed and had the kn) tied before the door bell was answered. It proved only to be the let ter carrier and the bride and groom seemed greatly relieved. The happy man removed an envelope from his pocket and handed it to Mir. Walworth. The envelope is reported to have con tained bill of yellow color. Seeming greatly relieved. the couple boarded their big. red car and gave the chauffeur the signal to start, and the little bride waved her handkerchief as the car sped down the street, to Dr. Walwortb, who stood on the porch of the parsonage The pastor isn't quite Ger tain that she didn't blow him a kiss as the car round e6 the cpruer Tho car xuac aOvaIpDa1 in a cloud of dust.
