GAUGE SHOWED
PRESSURE To
Be HEAVY
COMMISSIONER FRALEY STATES
THAT THE STATEMENT THAT
PRESSURE WAS UNSATISFAC-
TORY, is NOT TRUE.

Relative to the statement contained
in yesterdays issue, about the fire in
the T. X. Kearney building, which
stated that the water pressure was
anything but satisfactory, Commits
sioner Fraley stated last night that
it was all mistake. He said that
at 1890 o'clock the pressure showed
the maximum of 70, and at 1890,
after the fire was under way and six
strings of hose were drawing water
from the mains, the gauge registered
6S, while the gauge at the pumping
plant showed 9S
The maximum, as stated, is 72, but
insurance companies only require tnat
the pressure be 60, so the commits
sioner resented the statement that
the pressure was unsatisfactory.
Mr.. Fraley stated that Ardmore
was recognized by insurance compan-
les as one of the best equipped to
fight fire Of any city in the state and
was often referred to in this con
nection by representatives of big
companies.

AGED WOMAN TELLS OF
MERITS OF CHOCTAW BEER

McAlester, Okla, March Fran
ces Trione, 70 years old, an Italian
widow, at Krebs, came to the defense
of her son Charles Trione. in county
court Tuesday and assuming all blame
for a "Choctaw" beer party held at
her home, July 16, last, obtained an
acquittal for the defendant. County
officers raided the Trione home on the
night of July 16. They found num-
Der of Italians drinking and discovered
in different receptacles 26 gallons of
"Choctaw" beer. The beer was her
own, not her sons Mrs Trione testi-
fed and had been made for the spe-
cific purpose of entertaining friends
in celebration of her seventy4fifth
birthday anniversary 1t was that
celebration that was in progress when
the officers interfered, she said. The
aged Italian woman gave expert testi-
mony as to the value of the "Choctaw"
beer as beverage. She makes it regu-
larly, she said, by using a mixture of
water, malt, sugar and hops, and
drinks on an average of a gallon a
day.
That is why she is sprightly at sew
enty-tive, she said.

CONFEDERATE
HOME REPORT
SECOND BIENNIAL REPORT OF
THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES
SHOWS THAT INSTITUTION is
IN GOOD SHAPE.

The second biennial report of the
board of trustees of the Confederate
Home has been submitted to the
governor and to the state legislature,
and shows that the appropriation has
never been exceeded and that there
is always balance in favor of the
state at the end of each biennial
term.
In submitting their report the trus-
tees ask that the legislature make
an appropriation of $4,000 for the
next biennial term. In asking for this
amount the trustees cite the high
cost of living, which has sent prices
upward during the past few years.
until the present appropriation will
be inadequate to take care of the ever
increasing numbers to the home.
The report shows that there has
been admitted since the home was
opened in June, 1911, 134 persons,
of this number 24 were wives and
. widows OF old soldiers; "a deaths
have occurred among the inmates Of
the institution; ten have withdrawn:
two sent to the asylum, and three
have been dismissed.
The board pays high tribute to
the physician, DR.. ]. C. McNeese, for
his care and efficient service, and
also lavish praise of Mr.. and Mrs.
John Gait, former superintendent and
matron, and upon the present super
intendent and matron, ]. c. Ijams

THIRTEEN BODIES HAVE BEEN
RECOVERED so FAR FROM w.
VIRGINIA MINE.
OTHERS ARE LOST
Little Hope Remains for the Miners
Still Entombed in the Coal Mine
Most Of the Men are Foreigners,
With a Few Americans.

Hinton, w. Va, March 3.-The
bodies of thirteen miners have so far
been recovered from the Layland
mines of the New River and Pocahon-
tas Coal Company, seven miles from
Quinimont, yesterday
Many of the others are believed to
be dead. 1t is believed that 161 men
are still in the mine.
From outside evidence the force of
the explosion must have been terrific.
The stone arch over the main entrance
of the workings was destroyed, win
dows within a 300-yard radius were
broken and the explosion was felt for
miles around.
A. b. Cooper, who was delivering
groceries to a house within seventy
five yards of the mine entrance, was
blown against a telegraph pole and
killed.
The first rescue party which pene-
trated the mine found bad slate falls.
They reported the air courses good.
Company officials refuse to give out
any information concerning the acci-
dent. Most of the entombed miners
are of foreign birth, but there also a
large number of Americans.

GOOD NEWS
FOR INDIANS
COMES TODAY
PER CAPITA PAYMENT PROVISION
ADOPTED BY THE SENATE AT
THREE O'CLOCK THIS MORNING
- HAS PASSED HOUSE.

In the United States senate, at
three O'Clock this morning, the con-
ference report on the Indian appro-
priation bill was approved by a vote
of SO to 10 A wire to this effect
was received early this morning by
Erret Dunlap, signed by Senator Gore
and Congressman Carter.
This means that the Choctaw In
dians will receive a payment of 5000
and the Chickasaws will receive a
payment of 800. The smaller pay
ment for the Chickasaws is due to
the fact that last August the Chicka-
saws received 500 each, while the
Choctaws received nothing, and this
payment will even up matters, with
reference to the members of both
tribes of Indians.
Men like John Sharpe Williams and
Senator Vardaman lined up against
giving the Choctaws their payment.
These men wanted the indians still
in Mississippi to share in the distri-
button of the funds of the tribe. A
powerful lobby was maintained to de-
feat the Choctaws. John Sharpe VIII
liams is very shrewd, he Is a man
well trained in legislative work, and
a victory over Williams means some
thing. Many of the strong men of the
house and the senate Joined with
Williams in the fight There was a
sprinkle of Indian sentiment, coupled
with a threat that if the money was
paid out, that suit would be brought
against the government to recover
funds alleged to be due the Missis-
sippi Choctaws who remained at
home.
There was also an element in this
state which hoped to see Williams
win in his fight. This element is
made up of the applicants for citi-
zenship, who still hope to get on the
rolls, and they very naturally do
not want the tribal funds paid out
until their names are enrolled and
they get what they claim is their
share.
One of the most notable victories
ever won by Congressman Carter was
in the fight for this bill in the lower
house. Democratic Floor Leader I'm
derwood who is an Alabaman, a
close neighbor to Mississippi, took
the Williams side of the question and
this forced Charley Carter to take
the floor leadership in the house
Carter won, and then the fight was
transferred to the senate, and the
report reaching here today shows
that Senators Gore and Owen have
won in the senate.

TWENTY-FIVE MILLION DOLLAR
RIVERS AND HAR6oRS BILL is
PASSED BY THE SENATE.
BARELY HAD QUORUM
Vice President Marshall Was Gotten
Out of Bed About Five O'Clock this
Morning to Help Form Quorum for
Passage Of Bill.

Washington, d. c., March 3.-The
senate passed the $25,000,0OO rivers
and harbors appropriation bill at 6:37
this morning, after an all-night ses-
sion, and then recessed until 11:OO
o'clock today.
Vice President Marshall was gotten
out of bed to help form a quorum for
the passage of the bill, about 500
O'Clock this morning.
Tuesdays developments practically
sealed the fate of the ship purchase
bill, administration leaders agreeing
that it would be almost impossible
to act on the conference report in
the senate after it is disposed of by
the house. Some of the democratic
senator's asserted that the measure
probably would not appear in the sen
ate again, while others thought it
might be offered at the last moment,
when all essential measures had been
cleared away.
The bill was shunted aside Tues
day in the house, and returned to con
ference on a point of order made by
representative Mann, the minority
leader, who contended that the con-
ferees had exceeded their authority
in increasing to three years the peri
cd to elapse following the close of
the European war before the Weeks
naval auxiliary provisions should be-
come effective.
The Weeks bill would have gone
into effect at once as it passed the
senate originally, while the house
amendment provided that it should be
enforced with the expiration of the
proposed shipping board, two years
after the close of the war.
Speaker Clark sustained the point
of order and a further conference
with the senate was requested to make
the report conform to the rules.
Tuesday night the Houses prompt
ly agreed to the conference report on
the naval bill, with a provision direct
ing the secretary of the navy to re-
port to the next congress plans for
four naval vessels based on the Euro
pean war experiences. Reports on the
military academy and the diplomatic
and consular bills also were agreed
to.
