MODERN DAY ROMANCE
STORY OF A PRINCE OF INDIA
AND A DANCER.
Woolng Ended Happily, Though It Was
Not Conducted as in the Glorious
Days of Beauty and
ChiVaIry.

Alias we exclaim when rocket
goes up. All! Let us take our minds
from sordid affairs so that our emo
mance-a romance shining with love
and especially with paternal devotion.
1t is the romance of the maharanee of
Kapurthala, India, who is now touch
ing these shores with her husband,
who was once, and we feel sure still is,
her lover. We pulsate rapturously as
we read of the substantial proof he
gave of his love, and we thrill conclu-
siveiy when the publicity agent tells
us of how dearly her father held her.
Strange to say, this lovely Indian
princess is, or was, a Spaniard-a
Spanish dancer When the prince Of
India saw her dance he Immediately
fell on his knees and besought her to
change her name from plain Anita
Delgado to sonorous maharanee Of Ka-
purthala. Dear, old dad objected to
having the fine old Castilian strain
grated on to Oriental royalty and told
little Armies glittering sutton to
vamose, which is Spanish for decamp.
But instead Of folding his tent like
an Arab and silently sneaking back to
Kapurthala, what did the swart but
spangled lover do? Did he murder the
doting Delgado and fee with the pull
chritudinous daughter? No. Did he
ride off with her like Lochnivar out
of the East? No. Did he Romeo
around her dormer window? No. Did
ne strum plaintive guitar and in
duce her to elope by the light of the
moon? No. Then what did he do?
Let the news item tell it in its own
way:
THE maharanee of Kapurthala, In
dia, and her husband are visiting in
the United States. The maharanee
formerly was Spanish dancer named
Anita Delgado. Her father objected to
the attentions of the Indian prince to
his daughter The maharajah over
came the parental objections by giving
her father $4,000"
How much more efficacious than
writing Petrarch's sonnets to Laura.
or Dante's poems to Beatrice-the sim
pie writing of $4,000 check! Let US
sit by the borderland of old romance
in the twilight:
Where glitter hauberk, helm, and lance,
And banner waves and trumpet sounds.
And ladies ride with hawk on wrist,
And mighty warriors sweep along,
Magnified by the purple mist,
The dusk of centuries and of song
and let us dream upon the magic and
the wonder and the glory and the
power of $4,000 check!

Appropriate Enough.

The vicar of Leeds, England, Doctor
Bickersteth, tells of a clergyman who
rang him up on the telephone to ask
if he would consent to his taking a
marriage service in which the word
obey was left out. He replied that
he was not the bishop, but was toler-
ably certain that the bishop would not
allow him to omit the word.
But who is the lady going to
marry?" he inquired
The answer was: "She is going to
marry a doctor"
He then asked: would she nina
if you put in the word consult in
stead?"

Borrowing Trouble.

Mary Alice had been punished and
shut up in the bedroom. She had been
quiet for some time and papa was just
about to open the door and tell her
she might come out when her sobs
burst forth afresh.
Don't cry any more" he said, sooth-
ingly Papa has forgiven you"
"Oh, l know, papa" she answered
between sobs But just think! What
an awful thing it would be if l should
grow up and have a little girl as
naughty as ! am"

himself to the desired one, and sud-

ITALY REFUSES TO
TAKE SIDES IN WAR.

Washington, Oct 15.-The Italian
governments policy in regard to the
European war was made plain Thurs
day by Ambassador Macchi di Cellere.
He declared Italy would not take up
arms unless forced to do so by some
act that threatened her own safety
Although officially member of the
triple alliance, the ambassador de-
clared his country did not intend to
endanger its neutrality by yielding to
the influence of any outside powers
to take sides in the conflict.
This attitude of positive neutrality,
Mr.. Di Cellere said, in all probability
would continue to be upheld even in
case of minor changes in the govern
ment
The ambassador explained that re-
ported troop movements in his coun-
try were not in the nature of offense.
The return of the colonials from Tri-
poll, he stated merely was part of
previously contemplated plan for two
year volunteer service in the colonies.
The present class, having served its
required period, is returning to Italy
for discharge.

Healdton Hearing Oct. %.

Writ Franklin, president of the
Ardmore Oil Producers association,
received a wire today from Commits
sioner George A. Henshaw notifying
him that the meeting of the com
mission, the producers and the pipe
line people would be held in Ardmore
on Thursday, October %. The hour
was not named in the telegram but
it is probable that the hearing will
be begun during the morning hours.
This meeting is held for the pur-
pose of deciding what shall be done
in reference to the reduction of the
price of Healdton oil from SOC to
iOc a barrel. which was ordered by
the pipe line people to become eff
fective on the 9th day of October.
Before this date came, the commits
sion ordered the pipe line not to
purchase oil for less than soc and
ordered the producers not to sell for
less than soc. So oil could not be
moved at i0c a barrel without both
sides to the controversy being guilty
of contempt The pipe line people
then agreed to run oil until hear
ing was had, provided the date was
not set beyond the 23rd day of Octo-
Der. The pipe line people say they
will not take oil at soc and the pro-
ducers say they will shut down the
field before they will stand for a
reduction of as much as one cent
on the barrel The runs at 1900
a day and for the 16 days which
were won by the hearing at Oklahoma
City has been worth about 100000
to the producers already. 1t is said
that some evidence will be sub
mitted at the hearing here that will
be sensational in a way and the
producers feel absolutely confident
that they will win and that runs will
continue to be made at soc a barrel.

Judge Robert l.. Williams, candidate
for governor, will address the people
of Ardmore, probably at the opera
house, on the night of Friday, October
23. under the auspices of the county
central committee.
Judge Williams will also speak at
three other places in the county on
that date, and will arrive here early
in the morning and, accompanied by
a local committee and some of the
county candidates, will make the
rounds.
The towns he will probably visit
are Pooleville, Graham and Newport
or Woodford. This has not been
definitely settled by the committee.
This will be the last opportunity
the people of this county will have
of hearing the next governor speak
before the election, and no doubt
big crowds will greet him at every
appointment.
The central committee is going
to wage an earnest campaign from
now until after the polls close, and
the various county candidates have
pledged themselves to work as ear
nestly from now on as they did in
the primary.

EXCAVATIONS FOR CAPITOL
BUILDING NOW COMPLETED

Oklahoma City, Oct. 15.-EXcavating
for the foundation for the state cap,
itol building, except what can be done
by hand with pick and shovel, was
completed Thursday afternoon. The
big machine, drawn by seventeen
horses and operated by half a dozen
men, which has been used on the
work since the digging first began,
was removed from the grounds to
blacksmith shop to undergo re-
pairs. The digging that now remains
to be done will be confined almost
entirely to bringing the ground into
shape to receive the nine-foot ce
ment foundation.
Two mammoth cement mixers and
distributors, similar to the ones seen
in use on the Kress building and
the Security National bank building,
have been received at the grounds
this week and will be set up within
the next day or two. Workmen be-
gan Thursday afternoon erecting the
two towers from which the cement
will be distributed. From the towers,
which are about 200 feet apart, the
cement can be distributed
to any part of the building through
more than 800 feet of what is known
builders as "spurters."
Three cars of cement, already have
been received at the grounds. and
actual work on the foundation and
floor for the sub basement, which
will be built of reinforced concrete,
will begin as soon as the neces-
sary preliminary work is completed.
The depth of the excavation varies
from eleven feet at the deepest point
which is at the south entrance to
the building to two feet at the end
of the west wing. The ground, it
is said, is solid enough at that point
for the foundation of a forty-story
building.

labor employed by the commission.
No contracts have as yet been award
ed. Bids for the erection of the build
ing proper probably will be called
for by the commissioners within the
next thirty days.
BY having the work thus far done
by day labor, instead of by contract,
the commissioners say they have
saved the state more than $4,000.
The Santa Fe extension to the
grounds has been completed, and ma
terial is now shipped in cars direct
to the grounds, eliminating the cost
of hauling by teams.
