must be something in it! Never knew you
to be fooled before. Seventy-three-foot

look, that's all! Let's see, we could catch
the Chicago Limited this afternoon, the

"Plenty mules by Won Sing Fu's," says
John.

the attraction at the Grand tonight
in Edward Knoblauch's brilliant COM
edy. "The Faun," will play to pack
ed house. Tulsa theateNyoers seem to
appreciate the hlgh-cass nature of
this attraction. The play was written
especially for Mr.. Faversham, who has
always been a welcome dramatic vlsl-
tor in Tulsa. His present engage
ment promises to be especially note
worthy. inasmuch as Mr. Faversham
will again display hi swonderful gift
of comedy that was so apparent in
Lord and Lady Algy," but which has
been somewhat dormant the last few
seasons during which the dramatic
stresses of The Squaw Man" and the
tragedies of "Herod" have focused
his attention away from more jovial
roads. The scenery equipment for
The Faun' is said to be even better
and more elaborate than that furnish
ed for THE Squaw Man."

OKLAHOMA CITY, Feb. 16.-sInce
the organization Of the Mid-Conti-
nent league at Muskogee last Mon
day, Abner Davis, former holder OF
the oklahoma City franchise in the
Texas league, has organized the Ok
lahoma state league and will have a
six club league under class d. The
tentative organization was effected
Immediately after that of the Mid
Continent league at Muskogee with
j. NJ. Postele Of Oklahoma City as
temporary president and j. a. Frank
lin as temporary secretary. 1t is
planned that meeting here on Feb
ruary II the organization will be
permanently formed. At that time
the schedule for the coming season
will be adopted.
At Muskogee last Monday at
noting Of Oklahoma cities for the
purpose Of forming the Mid-Conti-

taken in by the magnates and the
Oklahoma City franchise was award
ed to A. Il. Monroney and George

ROOSEVELT CLUB IS
MAKING MEDICINE
MAKING PREPARATIONS FOR
PRECINCT 'CAUCUSES TO BE
HELD SOON.

The Roosevelt Republican club Of
Tulsa, held it's first important meet
ing last night in the fedora court
room In the Reeder building. DR..
Ayers, the president presided. Most
Of the evening was spent in perfecting
precinct organizations for the work
to be done in the precinct caucuses,
February 20, at which time delegates
will be selected to the county and dis
trict conventions. Most of the pre-
cincts in the city were represented
at the meeting, but none outside of
the city had a representation present.
Each precinct held separate meeting
in the room, and elected a captain
who becomes a vice-president Of the
club by virtue Of that office, and who
will have charge of getting out the
Roosevelt men to the caucuses.
A. B.schaeffer got another crouch
and likewise again evidenced his
inert knowledge of what Is going on
in local political circles, by trying to
explain how the county republican
central committee allowed three men
to frame call without passing on 1t
for approval of the committeeman
who previously had authorized them
to attend to the work. Mr.. Schaeffer
did not seem to understand that the
full committee had outlined exactly
what they desired to be embodied in
the call, and then empowered the
committee appointed for that purpose,
to write 1t, so that it would be in reg
ular form.
As usual Mr.. Schaeffer showed that
he believed in the axiom OF heads 1
win; tails you lose" with reference TO
his position against anyone opposing
his views.

The above report, carried in the
press dispatches Of last night, Is dis
credited in Tulsa. Davis, when he
loft Muskogee, after being refused a
franchise in the Mid-Continent lea
que, announced his intention of form
ing n rival league. The Mld-Conti-
nent league however, has sent Secre-
tary Farrell of the National Commis-
sion, protection money on five Of the
cities named in the list OF proposed
towns in Davis league, and Davis
cannot possibly place teams in those
places, unless he organizes an outlaw
league, which would lose him his
present rights on the Oklahoma City
territory His rights at the cnpital
city will hold good until April IL,
when the Texas league season begins,
and after that date the owners OF
the Aud-Coni league franchise
there will have priority over Davis.
