without funds, and the people with

CATHOLICS MAY
ACQUIRE HARGROYE
HITCH IN PROCEEDINGS WITH
BLOOMFIELD, - LOCAL CATH
OLlCS WANT PROPERTY.

1t is rumored that there is hitch
in the proceedings, whereby Bloom
field Academy was to acquire the
Old Hargrove property for use as a
school in place Of the one recently
destroyed by fire, and it is also
reliably reported that in the event
the deal falls through, the Catholic
congregation OF this city stands
ready to purchase the property and
convert it into a school.
The Catholics Of Ardmore own
some valuable property in the heart
of the city that could be disposed
of adyantageously for resident pur-
poses and, with the purchase price
of this property they could purchase
Hargrove and operate one Of the
best Parochial schools in the state.
Just what all these rumors VII
amount to is not known, but the
agent of the property s'atel this
morning that something of the kind
was on foot and would be Consum-
mated one way or the ether within
few days He further stated that
if the negotiations with Bloomfield
failed the Catholics would probably
acquire the property.

Oklahoma City, Okla, March 22.-
Col. Jack Love, chairman of the cor.
poration commission today said that
checks are being made out in favor
of about 1900 individuals and firms
who are entitled to participate in the
distribution of the refund that is being
made by the commission to telephone
subscribers who paid an alleged eX,
cessive rate for their service in this
city some time back.
The sum to be paid out amounts to
approximately $62, 200, and was col
lected by the corporation commission
from the Pioneer Telephone Company
Of this city as a result of a ruling by
the commission that the charges had
been excessive for a long period.
The checks will probably be ready
for delivery to persons entitled to
them beginning Monday The period
during which the refund is to be
made. was from June l, 1909, to Dec,
81, 1912.

British Consul Perceval's official re-
port of the killing of William S.
Benton was received today. 1t says
mo pistol shots" were fired in the
fight which caused his death. The
inference is that he was stabbed.
Percevals report does not definite
~ describe the manner of Benton's
death, except that it was not by
shooting. 1t is accepted in connec-
tiCn with this information here that
the constitutionalist commission,
which is investigating, has found that
one of Villas officers stabbed Ben
ton and that this officer will be
tried. Perceval said that Benton was
unarmed.

CHURCH GOING
DAY SUCCESS
SUBSTANTIAL INCREASE IN At
TENDANCE AT ALL LOCAL
CHURCHES.

Yesterday was church going day
in the city and every congregation
shows a marked increase in attend
ance.
At the Baptist church the increase
was at least ten per cent yesterday
and the attendance at this church
probably was the largest of any de-
nomination in the city. Two power
full sermons were preached by the
pastor, Rev. +. NJ. Masters, which
were enjoyable and instructive.
The Methodist congregation show
ed a good gain, and the increase in
attendance at the Presbyterian
church was at least twenty five per
cent.
The next big event among the
local churches will be homecoming
day. The Baptist church has al
ready announced April Il as the
day to be observed by that church
and the other denominations viii
make their announcements later.
Yesterday demonstrated the fact
that most people like to go to church
and it also demonstrated the further
fact that with the churches, like other
institutions in the commonwealth, 1t
pays to advertise.

LARAMIE VISITORS
PRAISE ARDMORE.
SAY 1T is THE LIVEST TOWN IN
THE STATE. TOURISTS PASS
ING THROUGH YESTERDAY.

Messrs. Jones and owens, of Lara
mie, Wyoming passed through the
city yesterday in a big touring cal
en- route to southern and west Texas
and during the short time they were
in the city, took occasion to remark
that Ardmore had all the appearance
of being the livest city in the state
and they have visited nearly all the
larger towns in Oklahoma.
Mr.. owens is one of the big cattle
men of Wyoming and was going into
Texas to look after some of his cat
tie interests there. Mr. Jones is one
Of the county commissioners of Ma
son Co., and was making the trip for
the recreation that it afforded. They
were driving a big siX-cylinder Frank
lin. and seem to be enjoying the trtl
immensely.
Mr.. owen was curious to know what
was the cause of the seeming pros
rerity of the city and when Informed
that we had what is believed to be
the greatest oil field in the country
at our very doors, he said he could
account for the large number of au
tomobiles in town of this size, as
the oil business had the cattle indus
try beaten by some distance. He was
invited to stop over and inspect the
fields on his return trip, and stated
that he might do so.

Bic REF |NERY
IS PROBABLE
BUILDING DEPENDS UPON QUAIL
ITY OF OIL IN HEALDToN
FIELD.

In case the oil in the Healdton
field is a good refining Oh, the pro-
duction will be cared for by the
building of reiineries. One refinery
company has ALREADY been organized
and that company has probably al
ready tested the oil to its satisfac-
tion before q charter was taken ont
Word has also been received to the
effect that a large refinery wouIi
be built here by Chicago capitalists.
Commissioner George a. ilersbaw
has information on this subject and
in response to message sent him
by The Ardmoreite, he writes a
letter to this paper, in which he
states what he expects of the refiners
and what the intentions of the com
missioners are, provided the produc-
ton of the field is not reasonably
cared for.
The letter in full follows:
Daily Ardmoreite,
"Ardmore, Oklahoma.
Gentlemen:
Replying to your telegram a few
days ago. which was received during
my absence, beg to state that my
is to the effect that there
will be a refinery established at Ard
more which will distill the latter
oils and that the probable amount
equal to the present production will
be used for fuel. In addition to
the fuel for railroads, all nearby
industries, such as mills, gins, COM
presses, can use fuel oil cheaper
than coal, where the freight rate will
not exceed % cents per barrel
"We have great hopes that the
production of oil will be reasonably
cared 70 at the IIealdton field within
the next sixty days without any
further proceedings before the com
mission If it is not some decisive
action will be taken by the commits
sion. and every law on our statute
books on the antitrust subject will
be put to the test. Thus far, nc
proposition has even gotten "toc
big" or "too little" for this COM
mission to undertake.
"Yours very truly,
GEO. A. HENSHAW,
Commissioner.

Asquith thereupon denied that the
