TO SUICIDE
in PRISON
Alleged FaithIess Husband and His
Wife's Sister Land in County
Jail and Thereby Hangs
a Saffron Story

Following information received by
the authorities here Monday from Mrs.
Ed Baldwin OF Wichita, Kan. Ed Bald
win and Sadie Deppink were arrested
at the farmer Of R. A. Lisle, three
miles west Of Chickasha. The couple
were living at the Lisle home under
the name Of Whitewings and were en-
ployed on the farm by Mr.. Lisle.
Mrs. Baldwin traced the couple
here from Wichita and told the fol-
lowing story to County Attorney
simpson, which was corroborated this
morning BY Miss DeppInk in the CRAZY
county jail. More than year ago. it
is alleged, Baldwin sent his wife from
Kansas to Gracemont, Okla, in quest
Of a location, saying that later he
would join her. She wrote for him to
join her and finally, receiving nc an
swer, she returned to Wichita to find
that during her absence, her husband
had become infatuated with her sister,
Miss Sadie Deppink. With difficulty
she inducoa him to return home. He
returned and they lived together two
weeks during the month Of January,
1918. One day, she said, he went to
town after a load Of coal and never
returned.
Later developments, it is alleged,
proved that Baldwin and his sister
in-law. Sadie Deppink, came to Ana
darko. walking the entirC distance A
month ago Mrs Baldwin tsme to her
mothers at Gracemont, Okla. and
later got track Of the couple in Ana
darko. She followed them from Ana

Oklahoma City April 22.-At 3
O'Clock this afternoon the house is
voting on motion to pass the bill
abolishing the state enforcement Of
ficer, with the practical certainty that
the bill will be passed over the execn-
tive veto. The roll call is in progress
and sufficient affirmative votes have
been recorded to leave little doubt as
to the result.
Previous to calling the roll several
Of the representatives spoke in favor
Of the pending motion. Dr. A. $.
Riddle explained his position, stating
that he had run Oh platform which
committed him to reduction Of the
number Of state and county offices and
the abolishiEg Of the enforcement Of
ficer was in line with his pledges to
the people. Representative Curtis and
several others also spoke briefly in
favor OF overriding the veto.
The house session opened at +
o'clock and the proceedings before
taking up the executive veto we're con
fined to minor bills and resolutions.
For the second time III the fourth
legislature Gov. Cruce has vetoed the
proposition to abolish the office OF
state enforcement officer. In mes
sage sent to the house Monday even-
ing the governor stated that be has
not changed his mind as to the inn
portance Of this department, and that
instead of abolishing the office it
should be strengthened.
Almost simultaneous with the ac-
tion Of the governor came the unex-
pected resignation Of w. j. caurilI,
who for nearly two years has been
the active head Of the work Of enforc-
ing the prohibition law. The reason
given for this resignation is the press
Of personal business affairs and over
work.
In returning the measure back to
the house. GOV Cruce declared that ii
was the understanding that the ex-
traordinary session was not to con-
slider propositions which had come be-
fore the regular session, subjects OF 4
local or special nature. The charge
Of bad faith on the part Of the houss
is again inferred.
Previously the bill to abolish the Of
flee Of state enforcement officer orig
mated in the senate, and q consider
able fight developed in an effort to
override the governors veto. The
governor, in his message. says the leg
islature has oyerstepped its mark. The
ink on the governors signature had
hardly dried before the resignation oe
Mr. Caudill was presented to him. His
resignation was accepted Monday aft.
ernoon, though no official action has
been taken.

Workers the Real .Aristocrats.

The passion for acquisition is q
sign of ignobility, declares DR.. Frank
Crane in woman's World for April
All these consumed with a lust t.
become rich, to own more than any,
one else, are second rate men. Nc
real ncblemen could endure excessive
wealth.
Genuine nobility accepts no un.
earned privilege, but insists upon
earning its money in a fair field and
no favor, and if 1t earns more than
it can use in simplicity, delights e
give it away.
So far from nobility's being con
nected with inheritance, the inherit.
ance OF wealth has done more than
anything else to destroy true noble.
ness and corrupt the world.
What is called the aristocracy OF
the upper class is as rule an ex.
cellent illustration of what arfstoc.
racy is not. For 1T is marked by
pride, over-wealth, display, idleness
and exclusiveness; and each one Of
these qualities is contemplate.
The very poor are also usually
ignoble because necessity and wan,
tend to imbrute.
But it is among the honest work
men, among free and earnest pro-
fessicnal men, shopkeepers, clerks,
artists e.ad all who work for a liv-
ing in cheer and fideiity that are
generally to be found the true aristo.
Gratis of the soul.

county judges, but Il aims to make
sure that the superintendents win
dot be political Nominees The pro-
posed plan puts the selection Of the
comfy superintendent in the hands
OF the county board OF education 70
the end that this officer. IKE his
city colleagues, may be chosen for ed
ucaticlai ditness rather than polit-
ical exprediency. The whole idea IS
to make the county superintendent,
as he is in many states and as he
ought 70 be wherever the Office ex.
lists. a professionally trained school
expert.
There are probably few cases
where the important work OF school
supervision is assigned to a county
Judge or sheriff, but there are still
very many localities where the
Texas ideal OF a professionally
trained county superintendent, free
form political ties, is not yet real
lied. Educators everywhere believe
that adequate supervision by expert
county slperinte1dents is so es-
sentlal in the upbuilding Of the rural
schools that the office Of county su-
perintendent should be wholly pro
fess.onaf and not political.

EdhcatlonaI Tralns.

More than million people took
advantage of the educational trains.
sent through the rural districts last
year by the state agricultural col
leges of thirty-one states. according
to figures compiled by f. d. jerks
of the United States Bureau of Ed
ucation. In this way the colleges
have brought knowledge of improved
methods of farming home to many
who would probably never have been
reached in any other way.
The educational train usually con-
sists of three to ten coaches, we'll
supplied with exhibits and demon
stration apparatus, and in charge OF
practical mon who can talk interest
ingiy on the farmers real problems.
The stops made by the trains range
from two hours to half a, day. Four
state colleges-those in Texas. Cali
fornia, Louisiana and Oklahoma
report attendance at the stops of
these educational trains of hun
dred thousand or mere during the
season. The Oklahoma institution
takes the opportunity to attach to
the train a car containing moving
picture views of college activities,
thus cleyerly attracting the attention
of the farm boy to the possibilities
of an education at the State Col
lege.
