WILSON SAYS NEGOTIATIONS BE-
TWEEN TWO COUNTRIES ARE
ALONG FRIENDLY LINES.
ABOUT THE WEBB BILL
President Takes Position That Webb
Alien Land Law is Not in Violation
of Treaty-Japanese Fear Discr NJ
ination Against Them. IT..

Washington, d. c., May 12.-Presl-
dent Wilson believes that the nego-
tiations between Japan and the
United States over the alien land
legislation are not in an alarming
stage, but that the interchange OF
views has been along friendly lines
calculated to remove the appearance
of discrimination against the Japa-
nese.
The president discussed the subject
informally and took the position that
the Webb bill is not in violation Of
the treaty He intimated that the
Japanese protest is not founded on
the claim that the treaty will be
broken but upon the feeling that
there is an effort to discriminate
against the Japanese on the ground OF
alleged ineligibility of citizenship.

IN A NEW WORK.
o. K. Darden is Now Farm Dem s.
onstrator-Ants a Pest.


O. X. Darden, field agent for the
state board Of agriculture, with head
quarters at Lone Grove, was in the
city today. One Of the duties incum-
bent upon Mr.. Darden is to keep up
interest in the county institutes and
he is preparing to hold meetings OF
the institute in the towns OF the
county outside Of Ardmore. Carter,
Love and Johnston are in his terri
tory and he will divide his time
equally among these three counties.
Mr.. Darden says farmers are taking
more interest in agriculture than
they have ever taken before and they
are getting better results. The cold
nights, he says, have injured the
early cotton. Oats and wheat are
doing fairly well and corn is growing
very fast. Ants, he says, are getting
to be a pest in some of the crops.
He budded many pecans this spring
and the ants are bothering the ten
der buds. Sam Owens of Provence
has learned that liquid asphalt spread
around the pecan tree will keep the
ants away. Mr.. Darden has tried the
experiment and finds that the ants
will not cross a line of liquid asphalt
and says the discovery of Mr.. Owens
will save many pecan trees in the
county.

ing he placed his hand on one of the
supporting beams of the building The
beam being charged with electricity,
Walker was knocked unconscious and
more than 500 square inches OF skin
burned from his body. As a result. he
had to 80 to a hospital for four opera
tious and remain in the hospital for al
least six months and have the care of a
physician for many other months

jury WAS a very elaborate one covering
many technical points raised by coun-
sci. The verdict OF the jury was that

Cruel Park Board Only Bar to
YoungSter Adopting Baby
Beast as Chum.

Soulless folks who say that love at
first sight is to be classed with Or.
Cooks North Pole yarns should go out
to the Grant park zoo and see little
Urias Pierce cumming with Yaarab
the baby camel.
They had never seen each other be-
fore, but a perceptible rushing together
of souls happened when they first look
ed into each others eyes. And Yaarab
fell as shamelessly in love with Urias
as the little boy with him.
Yaapab, who is a kid himself, fog all
his long, ungainly legs, likes to play
and to be played with But they say
at the zoo that never before was his
love so plainly and ardently expressed
as when Urias came.
The little boy in the red coat stood
just outside the camers inclosure. He
moved along outside the wire fence
and the camel, inside, moved along with
him. 1t was evident that they wanted
to have a quiet little chat together, and
Zoo Keeper Boyd let the little boy &c
over in the little camers yard to play
OF course, Urias wanted to take him
home.
But what would you do with your
irish mail?" his father suggested.
oh shucks! Who wants old Irish
mail when he can have a camel tc
ride on? Come on, Naarab."
Yaarab was willing, The boys love
was reciprocated But as Urias viii
find out later maybe, there are many
| obstacles in the path of true love The
obstacle this time was the very regret
full announcement from the keeper that
Yaarab would have to stay out at Grant
park.
Urias didn't cry about it. Therein he
was worthy Of Yaarab's love, or of any
| body else's. He was a real little man
and patred Yaarab's head ana told hin
to come over to his house to play
| sometimes.
| Yaarab said he would, whenever the
| keeper would let him.
Urias Pierce is the son of c. L. Pierce
! railroad man.
