JOHN H. MORGAN CAMP.
Memorial Services Yesterday Honor
ing Memory of Lee.


A large, appreciative audience as
sembled with Confederate Veterans
yesterday afternoon in reception room
of the court house to pay honor to the
memory of the great military leader
Robert E. Lee.
After disposing of the preliminaries
incident to the camp, Miss Margaret
Noble, as per program, repaired to
the piano and rendered an instrument.
al solo, displaying great musical skill
in her execution.
Miss Margaret Barrall next, accom-
panied on the piano by Miss Joy
Moore, gave us violin solo, in
which she evinced much proficiency.
Then Miss Ellen Dickson came for
ward and sang the popular old song,
Anne Laurie" Miss Dicksons voice
always pleasing, was especially so on
this occasion, it being in perfect har-
mony with the sweet old melody she
sang.
While in session a phone message
was received from Judge Freeman,
the speaker chosen for the day, say
ing that he was taken violently i'll,
and would be unable to come. Com
mander Pulliam announced this fact,
saying he shared in the regret and
disappointment of the audience at
missing the speech of Judge Freeman,
whom he knew would deliver an ad-
dress worthy of the occasion. He
then made few appropriate re-
marks upon the subject in hand, and
invited others to disburden themselv-
es of their thoughts on so interesting
and prolific a subject.
Comrade Houston of the Confederate
home responded to this invitation in
short speech in which he pronounc-
ed fine eulogy upon the character Of
General Lee.
Mrs. Addington, always to be relied
upon, especially in emergencies, and
ever ready to scatter sunshine on
the pathway of the old soldier, con-
tributed much to the enjoyment of the
afternoon both in song and story. We
then adjourned, all feeling amply re-
paid for having come out.

A NOVEL DEPARTURE.
Ardmore Bootlegger Falls on Original
Plan But it Fails to Work.

If the heather Chinee' is peculiar
in ways that are dark and in tricks
that are mean the average Oklaho-
ma bootlegger is original in the mett-
DDS which he adopts in his endeavor
to introduce joy water into this sec
ton of the state which is made up
out of the old Indian Territory.
Coffins have been successfully used
as overcoats for cases of whiskey and
barrels of beer, but they have out
lived their usefulness as liquor jack
cts and are liable to be opened at any
time by the suspicious enforcement
officer to determine just what kind
of death is concealed beneath their
lids The bootlegger who would sue
cessfully introduce trouble-disturber
and headache drops into this section
must be ever on the alert to devise
some new means by which to get by
Ardmore claims to have an artist
in this line. Yesterday two trunks
were received at the union station
baggage room here. These trunks
were quiet unassuming appearing ar
ticles for the ansportation-suppos
edly-of gowns and skirts and other
wearing apparel. To add to the re-
spectability of the supposed character
of the trunks each bore, displayed
in large letters upon the sides, the
name of some society leader of this
city. But, alas, the best laid plans
of mice, etc, oft go astray There
was, despite the name upon the
Trunks, something suspicious about
the general appearance of the trunks,
Chief of Police Booker noticed the
suspiciousness and telephoned each
of the society ladies whose names dec
Grated the trunks receiving in each
instance the reply that neither OF
them were expecting any baggage"
In consequence the trunks were re-
moved to the police station and open
ed by the ruthless hand of the law
Contents-enough JOY water to give
every Mississippi Choctaw in Carter
county thirty days on the streets.
The proper owner of the trunks has
failed to show up and claim his mis-
marked baggage.
