Many World subscribers were dis
appointed yesterday morning when
they did not get their papers on time.
But when they discovered what a
splendid newspaper was issued yes

able state of mind again. Owing to
the size Of the Worlds Oil and Gas
edition, the carriers had difficulty in
delivering It rapidly and it was noon
before some OF the subscribers re-
oeived their paper
A large force of maiers were kept
busy all day long, mailing extra copies
of the edition to friends OF Tulsa
people, who recognized the boosting"
qualities Of the paper. a number of
copies of the edition are still to be
had at the World office and win be
mailed in secure wrappers to any ad-
dress for ten cents a copy.

chief of the Salvation Army. passed
away at 10:SO o'clock last night. He
was born at Nottingham in 1929. The
veteran Salvation Army leader was
unconscious for forty-eight hours pre-
vious to his death, Medical bulletins
had not revealed the seriousness Of the
generals condition which for week
past, it is now admitted, was hope
less,
Health Steadily Declined.
Twelve weeks ago, General Booth
underwent an operation for the re-
moval Of a cataract in his left eye.
For two days after the operation I'm
dications justified the hope Of the
generals recovery.
Then, however. septic poisoning set
in and from that time with exception
of occasional rallies, the patients
health steadily declined,
Knew End Was Near.
The general recognized that the end
was near and often spoke of his work
as being finished. throughout the
commander In chiefs illness, his son,
Bramwell Booth, chief of the staff of
the army and Mrs. Bramwell Booth
gave their unremitting attentions to
him both night and day.
Who Will BE Successor?
Public interest now centers in the
question OF a successor to the late
commander. Under the constitution
of the Salvation Army the general
nominates his successor. That GEN
eral Booth did several years ago plac-
ing the name in sealed envelope
which was deposited with the Saliva
tion Arny's lawyers with instructions
that 1t should not be opened until aft
er his death. ~

While nobody knows what name
the envelope encloses, the general be-
lief among the Salvation Army is that
it will prove to be that of Bramwell
Booth, who for thirty years has been
its chief of staff.

and get your money. Roberts Phar-
macy will sell you a bottle on this
guarantee. 1t is purely vegetable and

mildly, but you get better results than
