WILL HAVE THREE
 DAYS SPORTING EVENTS

Since the Fourth horse racing sports have been sizing each others horses up and concluded that there was enough difference of opinion and horse flesh to try conclusions again. A match race has been made between M. T. Piper's horse Tic -Tac and Bob Schultz horse Brownie Walker" for purse of SIooo for a 500 yard dash, to take place on August 18th. On the following day Split Second" Pipers horse will race Brownie Walker for another big purse.
 lust to make things interesting there will be free for all race, burro race, and a few cowboy sports and relay races that will be worth seeing. Some of the boys didn't get in the fourth to try con- clusions with the other fellows, so there will be something doing in the way of real sports.
 Just as matter of good faith $500 has been placed in the hands of Patsy Hoolihan. This is ap- parently the start of what bids fair to be a good sized sporting event before the day arrives.

SOLDIERS HEAR
GREAT SERMON
REV. J. S. MORROW PREACHED
THE HOME YESTERDAY.

Yesterday afternoon at the Con-
federate home Rev. Joseph Samuel
Murrow preached to the old soldiers
and many visitors from the city who
were present. "Set your affections ON
things above" was the subject of his
discourse, and for over an hour he
held the rapt attention of his audience.
He contrasted the past life of the
soldier with all its hardships to the
glorius life to come and admonished
them as they once did their duty as
soldiers to do SO as Christians.
Yesterday morning at the Broadway
Baptist church, Rev. Murrow occu-
pied the pulpit. His subject was "The
Gift of Cod" and in very forceful, elo-
quent language he outlined the duty
Of all Christians and the ultimate
reward that would follow the life of
duty well performed.
After the services at the Confeder-
ate Home yesterday afternoon a re-
ception was rendered Rev. Murrow by
the old soldiers, after which Col. Gait
vast the host to sumptuous water
melon feast. 1t was a hard matter
for Rev. Murrow to get away from
the old soldiers and he only succeeded
after promising them that he would
return again this afternoon and talk
to them. Rev. Murrow, who is the
guest of Mrs. Nichols, while in the city
will probably leave for his home in
Atoka tomorrow.

VICTIM Of DOCTOR
.SUESFOR $4,000
CLAIMS HE WAS CONFINED SIX
YEARS IN SANiTARlUM AS IN
SANE PATIENT.

Kansas City, Mo, July 27.-Charg.
ing that he was confined in the Bur-
nett sanitarium almost six years
against his will, Emmett G.. Hepburn,
60 years old, Of Sloan Springs, Ark,
Saturday filed suit against DR.. s. T.
Burnett and the Burnett sanitarium
for s1500O0.
Hepburn's petition states that he
was sent to the institution in April,
1907, without being adjudged insane,
that he was not released until jan
uary, 1918, and that he was compell-
ed to pay $3.50 per month to the insti-
tion Officials for the time he was
there.
Hepburn obtained his release on a
writ of habeas corpus.
After his release Hepburn went into
probate court at Bentonville, Ark, and
was found to be of sound mind. Then
he obtained divorce from his wife
and regained possession OF all his
property that had not been disposed
Of while he was in Kansas C.ty. Hep
burn is now living in Muskogee,
Okla, where he is taking daily exer-
else trying to regain his health and
strength. Hepburn's petition states
that when he entered the sanitarium
he weighed 175 pounds and was strong
and healthy but that now he is only
skeleton and badly broken in healtk.
Hepburn asserts that after he en-
tered the institution he was not al
lowed to communicate with mis- friends
that he was forced 10 take poisonous
drugs that two doctors said he had
cancer ofsthe ear and forced him to
undergo operations and submit to X
ray treatments, from which he has
never recovered. sIUM
The side of his face still bears
running sore from the effects OF the
X-ray, and it is alleged that at the
sanitarium he was placed in a room
with maniacs with NO way of de-
Tending himself from their attacks.
After two women had died in the
Burnett institution last fall an after
noon newspaper gave the institution
so muck publicity that the health
board made an investigation and
forced DIR. Burnett to change his
methods of treatment, and improve
sanitary conditions.

Drastic Demands Made.

Washington, July 27.-Strong rep
reservations, the most drastic In
phraseology that have been made
since the present American admins
tration came into power, were made
to the Huerta government in Mexico

manded not only the prompt arrest,

grafton official, at Juarez, Mexico, but
the immediate release of Charles Bis

be threatened with execution.

So serious were these ircidents re-
garded in official circles that they
overshadowed largely the theoretical
considerations of policy which the
visit of Ambassador Henry ane VIII

ambassador himself was 80 excited
over the developments IN Mexico that

There may be some liquor sold in

fault of the officers as they have re-
ceived Instructions from the chief OF
police to arrest every suspect and
close up any place where they be-
lieve liquor is being sold. Some of
the old timers here state that it IS
about as hard to get a drink in Ard
more as it ever has been in the
history of the town and the officers,
both city and county, are confiscating
every shipment they get their hands
on.
The officers say that it is prac-
tically impossible to get the "hipper."
He will peddle from his pocket TO
persons who would not give him
away if their life depended upon K
and as there is no law to make an
arrested drunken man tell where he
got it or one that will restore his
memory, the officers are up against
it when they are compelled to rely
on information cleaned from this
source. There may be crack in the
lid discovered occasionally. but as
soon as it is discovered by the off,

MUST PAY IF YOU
PLAY SAYS RINGER
PRESIDENT OF THE COMMERCIAL
CLUB GIVES OUT HOT INTER.
VIEW.

Say, | want to ask the people or
Ardmore a question through the col
umns Of The Ardmoreite,' said c. Z.
Ringer this morning, ''and l want the
people of Ardmore to answer that
question to me personally or through
the columns of the paper If they will.
What l would like to know Is this:
Will the Elks, the Masons, the Knights
of Pythias or any other order permit
outsiders to participate in their cleo
tions and have voice in naming the
officers who are to control the res
spective bodies? l hardly think so.
Now, if these bodies will not permit
outsiders to vote and have voice
in naming officers for these organi-
cations, by what system of reason
ing can some of these people who are
breaking into print justify their atti-
tude? The two who have recently
made a nomination and seconded
same through the columns of The
Ardmoreite are not members of the
commercial club and do not contrib
ute one penny to it's support, yet from
the tone of their letters to the people
it would seem that they want to be the
whole thing without money and with
>,out price.
"For the benefit of those who are
not members of the club / wish to
state that before they are eligible to
make suggestions, vote or hold office
in the Commercial club it will be nee
essary for them to become members
before Aug. 1.-The nominating commit
tee will turn into my hands list OF
names to be voted upon at the reg
ular election, and If their selections
should not be satisfactory to the club
members (not non -members) 1t will
be the privilege of any five members
to nominate another ticket to be voted
on at the same time. Now you can
say that hereby extend an invitation
to all who desire to have a voice and
vote in the affairs of the Commercial
club to hand in their names to the
present secretary before the first of
August and then they may have
voice in the affairs Of the club, other
wise they are not in it and have no
thing to say about what is done in the
club. ow if these parties who claim
to be so deeply interested in the fu-
ture welfare Of the city and county
want to show their public spirit and
desire to have voice in the affairs
of the club the same as any other
member
I have no malice in this thing.
I want to see a bigger, a better and
more prosperous Ardmore, and am
doing what I can to make it so, and
/ am interested in having every bus
mess man of the city belong to the
Commercial club, in fact, they should
be members, and fully believing that
the nominating committee that has
been selected to name candidates for
officers will name men who are work
ers and who have the welfare Of the
city and county at heart. I am going
to bide by the result of their choice
Mr.. Ringer stated that he hoped for
better things for Ardmore in the fu-
ture and heartily hoped that every
business man in the city who was not
at present member Of the club would |
become one before August first.
