TROOP RECALL
NOOTED QUESTION
NATIONS DO NOT FAVOR PLAN
OF RUSSIA TO ORDER SOLDIERS
FROM CHINA.

Washington, Dec. l4-PropCsal of
rhe Russian minister to China, Wassi.
ly y. Kroupensky, that all of the in
ternational forces in Chi Ii province,
including the American soldiers and
marines be withdrawn, was reported
TO the state department late Satur-
lister Reinsch at Peking. Minister
Reinsch will be instructed to confer
with his colleagues of the diplomatic
corps representing the other nine
countries maintaining armed forces in
China but it is considered here as
unlikely that the other governments
will acquiesce in the program mapped
out by Russia. 1t is almost certain
that the United States will dissent
from the Russian proposal.
The peace protocol which ended the
boxer uprising stipulated that the va
rious nations now maintaining armtd
forces in China would be given per-
mission to continue, not only the vari-
Gus legation guards but sufficient
forces to guarantee that the railroad
from Pekin to the seaport of Elem Ts.n
should at all times be open for safe
and uninterrupted operation.
Officials here pointed out that Rus
sia would have an unfair advantage
should the foreign forces be with
drawn as in the event of necessity |
arising Russian troops could be rush
ed into Chilli province by the railroad
which brings the Russian frontier
comparatively near the Chinese capi
al, not to mention the dispatch with
which Russian forces could be sent in
o the country from Mongolia. The
other forces, save those Of Japan,
'nce withdrawn would be thousands

REVIVE INTEREST
IN |NTERURBAN
PLANS OF PROMOTERS TO BEGIN
WORK ON 80 MILES OF LINE AF.
TER FIRST OF YEAR.

+. b. McElroy, president of the Ard
more and Western lnterurban line
stated this morning that unless some
unforeseen accident interviewed, work
of building the line would begin short
ly after the first of the coming year
Fbanciers have been here from
New York and pleased with the pros.
poets, gave assurance to the promOt.
ers that there would be no trouble in
financing the line, the only condition
being the acceptance of the plans and
protiIcs by their own engineers who
will be here January ., to go over
them with the local engineer.
The proposed rate has taken some
what of a change from the first in
terurban proposed, and in the plans
now submitted the loop idea has been
abandoned and three terminals will
be established instead
The line starting from this city will
go north toward Springer to within a
mile south of that place, thence west
by way Of the Woodford asphalt de
pOsits, by Milo, and on to OIL City
From Oil City one branch will run %
miles to the north as far as Elmore
City in Grady county, by way OF era
ham and Pooleyile and the citizens
of Elmore have offered a bonus of
$500 cash and 10 miles of right of
way as an inducement
From Oil City a branch will extend |
to the south through the oil fields and
by way of Cornish and Orr to Leon in
Love county, traycrsing a very rich
agricultural country besides passing |
through the heart of the oil fields.
President McElroy stated this NOR
ming that the prospects We're indeed
bright for the interurban and that as
| feeder to Ardmore's business inter.
'sts it would be worth more than any
,lher thing that could be promoted
1t the present time.
For several years the asphalt de.

ORDERS WAR DEPARTMENT TO
INVESTIGATE SATlRES ON THE
NATIONAL POLICY.
BANQUET ON THURSDAY
At Annual Banquet OF Order os
Carabao, Organization of Army and
Navy Officers, BurIesque of Amer.
ican Policy in Philippines.

Washington, D. C., Dec. 15.-Presi-
| dent Wilson today ordered the war
department to investigate the satires
on the administration Philippina
policy, which it is alleged featured
the annual banquet last Thursday
of the Order of Carabao, an organi-
zation of army and navy officers,
who have served in the Islands
The president suggested that the
secretaries of war and navy repri-
mand those responsible
The banquet was held here with
Secretaries Daniels and Redfield,
Postmaster General Burleson and
many distinguished men present. The
circulation of printed copies of the
satires in advance of the banquet
are the principal causes for ac-
tion.
The president took the ground that
a satire from outside the administra-
tion is not objectionable but that
it should not come from men help
ing to carry out the ADMINISTRATORS
policy.
The song, Damn, Damn, Damn
the nsurrectors,' was one of the
Objectionable features. 1t has been
sung at these banQuets for thirteen
years. Three six-foot models of
)attIeships were brought into the
banquet room with nosegays in tho
nuzzles Of the guns and a white
love on each fighting top. The
were named Fellowship,
friendship and Piffle. A moving
picture showed the pursuit of Il
Filipino colonel who was promptly
made governor of the province when
aptured.

USING THE WATCH AS COMPASS
With Hour Hand to Sun, South is
Midway Between That and Noon.

The watch IS often used to give
the compass point exactly Thus:
Point the hour hand to the sun
then in the morning, half way be-
tween the hour hand and noon is
due south. If afternoon, one must
reckon half way backward.
Thus, at o'clock in the morning
point the hour hand to the sun and
reckon half way to noon; the south
is at 10. If at t in the afternoon
point the hour hand at the sun and
reckon back half way, The south
is at o'clock.
The half way is because the sun
makes a course of twenty four hours
and the clock of but twelve If we
had a rational timepiece of twenty
four hours it would fit much better
with all nature, ard with the hour
hand pointed to the sun would make
IL o'clock noon always south.
If you cannot see the sun, get
into a clear, oper space, hold your
knife point upright on your watch
dial, and it will cast a faint shadow,
showing where the sun really is,
unless the clouds are very heavy
