COST Her $500 TO
Be Wife One DAY
Admits That She Is No
Spring Chicken"

Milwaukee, June 10.-"Oh, no, don
regret it much. 1t was worth $500 to
be a wife, even if it did not last long
I'm no spring chicken any more, and
] did want to become some mans wife. .
That is the philosophic manner iu
which Mrs. Violet Adamson, thirty,
formerly a school teacher at Stonefort,
Ill, talked OF the disappearance of
her husband Of day with $500 which,
she says, he persuaded her to let him
take to put in a bank" here. Then
she asked the police for aid and trans
portation back to her home.
The young woman and her husband,
whom she had known less than three
weeks, arrived in Milwaukee Monday.
Despite her experience, she says that
were she face to face with the same
proposition again she would not vary
her actions.
Il met Mr.. Adamson little more
than three weeks ago in Stonefort," she
told the officers. He said he was well
to do business man, stock broker,
with headquarters in Milwaukee. Last
Sunday he proposed that we get mar
ried. l accepted and Monday We were
married Monday night we spent to-
gether at a hotel, and Tesday he dis
appeared. I'm sorry he went; but |
don't mind losing the money so much

society women of New York are living
at much too high rate They are
drinking highballs and smoking cigar
cites in fashionable restaurants around
in automobiles with poodle dogs when
they should be attending to their homes

That is an excerpt from the re-
marks of Justice Apsinwall, in the SUI
preme court, Brooklyn, yesterday,
when counsel for Mrs, Blanche A. w.
Heye, argued his motion for $4,000
yearly alimony, pending her action
against George G. Heye, banker, for
divorce. John Willett counsel for
Mrs. Heye, who lives at the Langdon
hotel, in Fifth avenue, said that she
had to have that amount of alimony
to maintain her station in life,
The phrase station in life reads
very we'll in the modern novel" said
Justice Apsinwall, "but many a woman
never had station in life until she
married a wealthy man. This plain
tiff came from a family in not un-
usual circumstances in Massachusetts
and it has been stated that Heye
built home for her family and has
more or less contributed to their sup

CARTER IS PLACED
ON INDIAN PROBE
SPEAKER CLARK NAMES CON-
MlTTEE-MAY HOLD SESSION
IN OKLAHOMA.

Washington, Aug. 20.-Spea akel
Clark Tuesday named the committee
which is to investigate thoroughly
Indian affairs in the United States
! under the provisions Of resolution
introduced last May by Representa-
tive Charles d. Carter of Oklahoma.
rhe resolution was adopted as an
amendment to the Indian BILL ap-
proved June 80, 1913. Representative
John II. Stephens is chairman of the
committee on Indian affairs of the
house, which is chairman Of the III
vestigatng committed The other
members are representatives Charles
d. Carter of Oklahoma and Charles
II. Burke of South Dakota.
According to Mr.. Carter, author of
the resolution, this committee will
probe deeper into affairs of the In
dians of the United States than any
other committee of congress has ever
gone before. Mr. Carter stated Tues
day night that the committee would
not commence work until some time
after the special session of congress
is over Sessions will be held in
Washington at which time witnesses
Will be examined and it is thought the
committee will later meet in Okla
homa for a full probe of affairs Of
the various tribes of Oklahoma In
dians.
The investigation will be more far
reaching than anything ever before
attempted. The chief purpose is to go
into the dealings with the Indians
in Oklahoma, sensational charges
the manner in which affairs in Okla
homa are handled have been made to
Mr.. Carter and other members Of the
delegation.
Only recently charges of gross mis-
management of affairs of various
tribes of Indians in Oklahoma have
been made. Those charges have all
been turned to the committee and
will be thoroughly probed. The com
mittee has not yet formulated an
definite plan of action, but assur-
ances are made that Indian affairs
and dealings with the Indians in
Oklahoma will be given the me
thorough airing they have ever had,
and judging from the nature of some
of the charges, some very interest
ing facts will be uncovered.

FROM ARDMORE
To SHERMAN
CONFERENCE BETWEEN RING.
LING AND BUSINESS MEN
OF SHERMAN LAST NIGHT.

A delegation of Sherman business
men were in the city last night in
conference with John Hlngling rela-
tive to getting an extension of the
Ringing road from this city to Sher-.
man.
The party consisted Of G. B. Dor
chester, banker; e. N. Mulkey, capi-
talist, and L. NJ. Ward. secretary OF
the Sherman Chamber of Commerce.
They arrived over the Frisco at five
O'Clock and were met at the depot by
Mayor Roberts and a delegation Of
Ardmore business men who took
the m over the city for an auto ride.
Last night at the Randol hotel the
conference between Mr.. Ringing and
the above named gentlemen occurred
and at the termination it looked
bright for a road between this city
and Sherman. They came here pre-
pared to show just what they had to
offer the survey has already been
made, profiles and estimates made
and these were shown to Mr.. Ring
ling, who stated that the PROPOSE
tion looked good to him and he made
an engagement to meet them in Sher-
man some time early in September
at which time he will go over the
route between Sherman and this city
in an auto and If satisfactory ar
rangements can be made with the
Sherman people the road will be
built.
The people of Sherman are in dead
earnest about wanting the road bui,C
between here and that city and stat
ed yesterday that they were willing
to give Mr. Ringing almost anything
he asked to build it for them. This
road if built will traverse one of the
richest sections of the state and will
be a more convenient route to North
Texas points than any that are in
operation today.

county's most progressive farmers for
some time has purchased farm Of
seventy acres mile southeast of
Ardmore The farm has Groom
house, good barn and other outDuild-
ings, has fifty acres in cultivation
and twenty in pasture. The pasture
is too heavily wooded to be of much
service for grass and Mr. Holiday

pasture and will put tho balance Of it
in cultivation. On the entire 20 acres
there is not as much as one acre Of
waste land and Il is now in n fine
state of cultivation. The pla1n has
a fair crop of corn and the cotton is
looking>very good Mr.. Holiday will

SOME FINE COTTON.
One Farmer Makes Dairy Pay Farm
EXPENSES and Invests Cotton Money.


Some of the finest cotton in the
county is located on the prairie land
north of the city and is being Gull
tivated by B. A. Holiday. Some Of
his cotton will make a yield of one
and a half bales to the acre. The
plant is shedding some, but some Of
the fruit must fall off for the reason
that the plant cannot mature all It
has put on. Mr.. Holiday has kept
the plow busy all the summer and
his late cotton is growing well and
will make good crop. He tried an
experiment this year by sowing cana
seed on the oat land soon after the
oats came up. The cane grew well
after the oats were harvested and
he has a double forage crop on that
piece of land. He has raised more
feed than will be required to run
his farm and he has several head Of
horses and mules and a nice bunch
CT dairy COWS. He gets cream
check every two weeks that has kept
all ile expenses paid during the
spring and summer months and he
will be able to put a good part of
his cotton money into the purchase
of land.
