There will be demonstrations of every
thing electrical and those ignorant on
the subject will be adept in the art be
fore they get away.
In addition to that which is useful
around the home, there will be electric
automobiles and all that has to do with
them. The electric has become one of
the foremost transportation vehicles in
Tulsa and with some are rapidly taking
the places Of gas cars There will be
capable demonstrators of the electric
cars at this show and those who are in
the market for cars of this kind and do
not avail themselves of the opportunity
Of more thoroughly acquainting them
selves with electrical transportation, will
have but themselves to blame
All in all, it will be the best show of
the kind ever held in Tulsa The first
of the kind was held last year, and at
that time it was the first in the history
Of the state. Other cities are following
suit this year and the populace will ben
eft greatly by attending
Eventually, according to those engaged
in the electrical work, the world will be
come electrical, and thus far nobody
has been found who is willing to dispute
their assertion 1t would be well at this
time therefore to benefit while the op
pOrtunity presents itself. Otherwise you
are liable to be behind the times some
thing which would be calamity to the
average citizen and particularly the
women.

their respective contrivances designed to
relieve the average housewife of many
of the trials Of ordinary life.
simultaneously throughout the United
States there will be similar exhibitions.
all of which are intended to enlighten
humanity on the subject of electricity.
There are thousands of women in Tulsa
who are not yet acquainted with elec-
tricity or what it is capable of accom-
plishing for them. Therefore, it is a GER
tainty that they will respond readily to
whatever is shown them during the show,
which will be the finest of the kind ever
attempted in this or any other city.
1t is the intention to have entertain
ment as well as instruction and there

not urged to play hard game and al.

fact that the field was muddy and

MOTHER AND AUNT ARE OPPOS-
ED TO EACH OTHER IN
LOCAL COURT CASE.

One OF the most interesting cases
brought in the local courts for some
time, involving the custody OF a IL
year old girl with the mother and
aunt opposed to each other. was filed
this morning. The circumstances re-
sulting In the case are very peculiar,
several unusual elements entering in
to II.
The mother Of the child. Mrs. Jen-
ME VI. Farrens. and her husband. j..
$. Farrens. this morning petitloned
the court for writ Of habeas corpus
TO require John T. and Cora p. Dow
ell to produce the body Of the child,
literally speaking, in court. Judge
Phelps issued the order, requiring the
child to be produced at 10 o'clock to-
morrow morning.
The Farrens in their petition al
lege that the child is being ''unlaw-
fully imprisoned detained. confined
and restrained" by the Dowells whom
they allege, claim to be her legal
guardian but who have no legal claim
upon her
However the basis OF the claim OF
the Dowells is found in two deeds Of
adoption filed with the county clerk
few days ago but not recorded for
the reason that such instruments are
not known in. this state. The deeds
were executed in Missouri which. IL is
said. is one Of the two states in the

wife. the care and custody OF the
child. The deed relates that in Jan

cured divorce from the mother and
was given the custody OF the child by
the court.
The second deed, filed in Harrison
county, Missouri, Nov. 23, 1914. re-
cords the transfer OF the CUSTODY Of
the child from the Charletons to the

whether or not the deeds of adoption.

SUPERINTENDENT is NOW IN

CESSARY I.ABORERS.

f. p, Matthews, who will superin-
tend the construction of the public
swimming pool, arrived in the city
last night, and will probably com.
mence the excavation of the pool this
afternoon. He has been securing
men for this work this morning. and
II things can be managed the work
will commence as soon as the imple-
ments can be secured at the place
of construction. Mr.. Matthews was
recommended by ]. o. Convill, super.
intendent of parks and boulevards in
Portland.
The local swimming pool will be
as large that of Portland, but it will
be built in a more modern manner,
and with better equipment There
will be concrete platform about the
pool and the dressing rooms will al
so be equipped with concrete floors
and necessary furniture. A lattice
work will be constructed about the
grounds and pool and IL possible a
grand stand for onlookers will be
constructed, A specification of the
bids will be made in couple of
days, The exact cost of the pool is
not yet known. but 1t is estimated at
$4,000.

If there is any truth in the
old adage that money talks"
then the farmers between Pen
dleton and the Columbia spoke
effectively today when without
solicitation they began follow
ing the lead set yesterday by
Leon Cohen and pledged them
selves each to duplicate his Of

Springs road fund. Holdman
Bros. did better still with a ST.
500 subscription.
At noon today the sum of
$4,000 had been pledged to the
road and not a man had been
urged to give. Practically
speaking it was a voluntary eff
fort all around. What do you
think of that? Do not such re-
suits show that people under
stand the Importance of river
freight rates and wish to take
advantage of them?
Up to this time there is no
formal organization handling
the proposition of a river road
and no particular set line of ac-
tion has been adopted. But
there is unbounded sentiment
for the road and it is generally
conceded that the plan out
lined by R. o. Earnhart is a
good one with which to start
things moving. Within a short

intend to put the matter up to
