Partly Covered by Sand.

He was partially covered with sand. but
held on to the plank. which he barely
managed to reach, and, after considerable
effort, managed to extricate himself from
the perilous position.
According to his account of the acct
dent there was nothing to indicate that
there was an excavation under the street.
Mr. McGrath called upon Commissioner
Rudolph shortly before noon, and asked
that an investigation be made to deter
mine who was responsible for the street
being left in that condition.
Had q child traversed the street AZ
this point, the thin covering of earth
over the excavation would not have been
sufficient to support it and undoubtedly
a fatality would have been the result.
said Mr.. McGrath 1.-The crust of earth
could not have been more than eight
inches thick. The cave-in covered a space
of approximately four by eight feet, with
a depth of about eight feet consider
it nothing short Of miracle that | es-
capped alive"

John G. McGrath Caught in
Cave-in at Excavation for
Sewer Connection.

John G. McGrath president of the Park
View Citizens Association. came near
being buried alive this morning when
thin crust Of earth covering an excava-
ton for a sewer connection in Park place
suddenly gave way under him. dropping
him below the surface OF the street
But for the fact that he managed to
grasp the end Of plank lying near. Mr..
McGrath probably would have been en-
tirely covered with dirt and unable to
extricate himself. AS it was. he was Sc
verely bruised and jolted.
At last nights meeting OF his associa-
ton Mr. McGrath severely criticised the
District government for its delay in maxi
ing improvements on Park place. He left
his home about 8 o'clock this morning to
take a walk along this street.
But few persons were out at that hour
and Mr.. McGrath was strolling leisurely
along In the middle Of the horoughfare
when, without warning, he slipped. His
precipitation into the earth was SO sud
den that he had no opportunity to jump
to a place of safety.

Pure Food Demonstration.

Beginning today week and contin-
uing throughout the week, the ladies
of the Presbyterian church will con-
duct Pure Food Exhibit at the Mo-
ran Scott building next door to the
Guaranty State Bank. Perhaps the
task they have assumed is not thor
oughly understood and a few words
of explanation may be necessary.
AS everyone knows, certain foods
must be examined under the Pure
Food Law and many manufacturers
have had to withdraw their goods
from the market beqhuse they could
not pass inspection. And, too, many
manufacturers have profited by the
law, because their products were
pure. These manufacturers have
been asked for donations by the la
dies and many have responded gen
erously. The proposition was ell
tirely a business one. The ladies
promise to advertise the goods by
preparing and serving them daintily
and the manufacturer furnishes the
goods.
During these days three good
wholesome meals will be served each
day of the week, cooked by the la
dies of this church, who are quite
capable of giving Mrs. Rorer a few
hints, when it comes to serving q
plain, wholesome meal. The menu
will be so varied that if you don't
want a plain meal you can get a
fancy one.
During these days the ladies will
conduct first class restaurant Ice
cream and home made cake will be
served in the afternoon and after
the picture shows.
Especially liberal donations have
been made by Swift & Co., the Dia-
mond A Ice Cream Company and
the National Biscuit Company, all of
whom donate all their goods that
the ladies may use.
Tuesday and Wednesday will be
observed as special days.
Thursday will be Lane Demonstra-
tion Day; Friday will be Felker
Demonstration Day; Saturday will be
Ardmore day.
On these days Mr.. Lane and Mr..
Felker will donate all goods for their
special days and on Ardmore Day
other retail grocers and Ardmore
manufacturers will donate the food.
The ladies' realize that they are
undertaking a great deal; if you will
give them a liberal patronage they
will not mind the work.

left France 8 few days ago for the United States with the ayowed in- tention of enlightening the people of this country on the method of English suffrage. Upon hearing of Mrs. Pankhurst's intended visit, the United States Immigration Board at New York took this matter up and she will be detained when she lands in that city and an effort made to deport her as an undesirable. In speaking on the above subject the Westerner says:
 No good cat come to this coun try out oC visit from Nrs. Plank hurst. We are militant enough at the present time, as 1t Is. on every conceivable subject under the sun. Moreover, the women Of this coun- try know how to win their cause, and Mrs. Pankhurst doesn't. In a recent conversation with a MT. Brown, representing extensive bug mess in Edinburgh, he said that he had always favored the woman vote, but that the policy adopted by the women in England had turned him agains tit, and that this policy had created 8 like prejudice In the minds of most. Englishmen and ScOtchmen, against the movement. By any in- telligent line of reasoning 1t Is i'm possible for us to arrive at Mrs. Pankhurst's theory of violence in the administration of her cause. The hatchet yielding brigades of Carrie Nation are the only examples we have had Of that sort of thing in this country, and nobody more than the Prohibitionists themselves recognize the injuries Mrs. Nation inflicted upon the Prohibition move ment. As for the suffragists of this country, they have made won- derful crusades, and they are win ming their cause a2 a rate exceeding the speed limit. And they are do- ing it in a manner to win the re- spect of their opponents, and to add dignity to the enterprise. Without doubt Mrs. Pankhurst is not needed in our midst"
