LONDON, March 2s.--No solution
had been found to a late hour today
of the situation caused by the resig-
nations of Field Marshal Sir John
French and Adjutant-eneral Sir John

net, however, was still hopeful that
its difficulties would be overcome be-
fore it again meets the House of

generally thought that Col John

At L0RENA PARK
TRACTION COMPANY WILL CELE-
BRATE THE GLORIOUS FOURTH
IN APPROPRIATE MANNER.

There will be something doing every
minute at Lorena Park July and
4, when the big two day picnic will be
held for the benefit and pleasure of
the citizens of this section of the state.
The Traction company have gone
to considerable expense to prepare for
this event and there will be nothing
lacking for the convenience of the pa
irons of the park when the days ar
rive
For man there will be all the ice
water that is desired, for stock there
will be plenty of stock water and also
shady places in which to hitch, the
south side of the park will be open
to campers, and autos may enter the
ball park from the south side.
Saturday night magnificent dis
play of fireworks will be had and this
feature alone has cost the Traction
company several hundred dollars.
Sunday afternoon the Ardmore Gun
club will hold a tournament at the
traps a few yards south Of the ball
park, in which some of the local crack
shots will compete with shooters from
other parts of the state. This is q

as there is an inherent desire upon
the part of every American citizen
to shoot and see the targets fly into
bits.

great deal of credit for the many i'm
provements that they have made in
the parks. Their lighting system is
perfect and the natatorium is getting
more popular every day. AS soon as
the work can be done, an immense
pavilion will be built for dancing par
ties near the entrance, and the various
clubs of the city will be granted the
privilege of al fresco dances.
