Rome, April 21-Reports received
here today from Austria say the dual
monarchy is hurriedly gathering
troops on the Italian frontier 10 face
a possible invasion by Italian sot
diers.
A large contingent of Austrian
troops, the reports say. have been
guartered at Monfalcone, Bonchi and
Sagrado. The Austrians also are said
to have strongly fortified the whole
lire of the Isonzo River with intrench-
ments, behind which batteries already
are in position.
Within the last twenty-four hours
there has risen here persistent reports
that the grave international questions
confronting Italy may be solved soon
by what at first might seem almost
incredible, the conclusion of general
peace in Europe at a not distant date
In certain quarters in Rome the idea
prevails that the advent of spring has
not seen such resumption of agrees
i've hostilities as had been promised, a
fact regarded as significant.

BEGIN WORK
ON NEW WARD
At HOSPITAL
DR.. HARDY HAS LET CONTRACT
AND BENEVOLENT SOCIETY is
NOW GETTING BUSY WITH THE
FREE WARD PROPOSITION.

Some time ago DR.. Hardy an.
nounced to the benevolent society
that he was going to build a sub
stantial addition to the Hardy san
itarium and thought it would be a
good idea for the society to take the
matter up with the various fraternal
institutions of the city as well as
with the churches and see if it were
not possible to maintain a certain
ward in the institution for the treat
ment of patients who were financial
ly unable to pay for such privilege.
Mrs. Julius Kahn, president of the
benevolent society, and her corps of
excellent workers Immediately began
to lay plans with this object in view.
The result of their conference has
been that they have decided to take
the matter up with the churches of
the city and with the various fra
ternal orders. and see if they can get
them to agree to set aside a stipu-
lated amount each month for this
purpose, thereby taking the name of
charity" away from the ward, and
make it fraternal and Christian in
stead. They argue that many per
sons would not like to occupy a char
ity ward in the hospital any better
than they would like to have their
remains buried in the potter's field
after death, and for that reason
would not go there, and perhaps suf'
fer death, because they were financ-
tally unable to pay their way
With the number of churches in
the city and the well known open.
handed charity OF every fraternal or
der this fund might be raised and the
work carried on without any person
feeling the stigma of charity" when
they were down and out"
Mrs. Kahn is preparing a petition
to be presented to the various lodges
of the city and to the churches and
other societies, asking them to do
nate a certain amount every year
for this purpose, and so far she has
met with great encouragement. Aside
from the churches and fraternities,
several business men of the city have
already agreed to give certain
amount every month, and when the
plan is finally whipped into shape,
the society believes it will have ample
funds for the work, and will be able
to do lot of good work for suffering
humanity.
1t is an established fact that the
Hardy sanitarium is as well equipped
for the care of all classes of patients
as any in the state, and the reputa-
tion of DR.. Hardy as a physician
and surgeon is too well known
throughout the southwest to need
comment. In assisting the ladies in
this work, he has set his price so
very low that they feel that the public
should respond to their call, and they
believe the public will.

JUDGE FREE
MAN AND THE
DIVORCE EVIL
DISTRICT JUDGE IN THIS CITY
SAYS MARRIAGE is GETTING
TO BE A FRIVOLOUS ocCUPA-
TIoN WITH SOME PEOPLE.

Judge Freeman was not very busy
in district court this morning, and
during the course of the conversation
the question of easy divorces was
sprung he Immediately began to
bristle up, and in very few moments
stated his position on what seems to
be a growing evil in this country:
''ln speaking of this divorce ques-
ton, | tell you it is astounding,
it seems to be no trouble at all for
some people to get married, and, by
Gatlins, it seems to be less trouble
for the same pair to get unhitched
after they have lived with each other
in many instanceS-less than a
year. There is a reason for this.
Under the law, when divorce case is
filed, and service published according
to law, the defendant in many cases
fails to respond, and thereby con-
fesses everything alleged in the peti-
IlOH 10 De TRUE. UnueT IHe law, l0ere
is but one thing for the court to do
grant the divorce. But | would like
to see the divorce law so amended
that both parties were made to ap-
pear in court. There might be more
cross petitions filed if such was the
case. Then it would be up to the
court to exercise his Judgment in the
matter. and grant or deny the decree
as his judgment directed.
1T is going to take some mighty
good evidence in my court to con-
vince me that a decree is necessary
They are not going to jump up here
with every little imaginary excuse.

REFINERY At
GAINESVILLE
IS ASSURED
PRODUCERS REFINING COMPANY
AGREES TO PURCHASE A MINI
MUM OF SIX THOUSAND BAR
RELS A DAY FOR FIVE YEARS.

Healdton field producers and F. H.
Thwing and his associates have
closed a deal for the building of a
pipe line from the Healdton field to
Gainesville, and for the construction
of an oil refinery in Gainesville. s. A.
Mills, former field clerk, has been
employed as right-ofway man, and
activities will begin at once. The
company will be known as the Pro-
ducers Refining company and the
capital stock will be S600,00O
The pipe line will be either a six
or an eight-inch. The first plans
called for a six-inch, but the COM
pany is now thinking of building a
larger line. The refinery is to have
capacity of 10000 barrels and one
of the men active in the organization
of the company said a refinery of
that capacity would be constructed
at once. The site has already been
obtained. Gainesville business men
are said to have donated the site.
Forty per cent of the stock will be
owned by the producers in the Heald
ton field That means forty per cent
of both the pipe line and the refinery.
Stock subscriptions were made in oil,
and the stock was over subscribed,
as far as local producers are concern
ed. Practically all local producers
took stock in the company. The bal
ance of the stock, which is the con-
trolling interest. will be owned by
F. H. Thwing of Kansas City, Thomas
II. Smith of Denver George A. Todd
of Ponca City, and their associates.
Mr.. Todd is manager of the Cush-
ing refinery, and also of the Ponca
City refinery.
The refinery proposes to purchase
minimum amount of 5000 barrels
day for a period of five years.
During the first two years the price
10 SllpuldltC anu dlltl lldl lIluC INC
market price is to be paid producers
for their oa.
Associated with Mr. Thwing are
II. NJ. Evans of Pasadena. Cal, Mr..
Smith of Denver. Colo. and George
A. Todd of Gushing and Ponca City.
If other parties are interested with
him their names are not known. Mr..
Thwing would not state what per-
sons are associated with him. His
companies are members of the EX-
port Oil company, and he sees ahead
of him a market for the lighter oils
and for the residuum. Mr.. Smith is
not interested in other refneries. He
owns some stock in one of the local
oil companies, and is a man Of means.
Mr.. Todd is a practical refinery oper-
ator and also owns stock in the new
company. Messrs. Thwing, Todd and
Smith left, here this afternoon for
their homes.
The contract calls for the compile
tion of the refinery by October l. but
the promoters say hey will have it
ready for operation by September l.

went to Robson Opera House last
night to see Miss Peet bake ice cream.
At the enthusiastic after meeting,
which is held round Miss Peets cook
cry table each afternoon, a number or
people asked her yesterday if she real
ly meant to bake ice cream as she
baked pie or cake, and she answered
that, while the process Is little dill
ferent, the ice cream would actually be
put into the oven just as is done with
any other food that is to be baked,
and allowed to remain there until
crisp, brown crust forms upon 1t. 1t
was Just a little difficult to believe Miss
Peets assertion that this could be
done without melting the ice cream,
but this cookery teacher last night
proved her ability to do this in a way
which delighted both the men and
women of her audience.
The women who heard Miss Peet In
Robson opera house yesterday after
noon, greatly enjoyed her talk in re-
gard to good food and feel that her
suggestions in cake baking were help
full indeed.
Miss Peet has some very practical
and workable ideas in regard to genu-
inc economy, and these are being dis
cussed fully at this afternoons ses-
sion of the Ardmoreite Home Econom-
les School. She has been demonstrat-
ing economical ideas in cookery ever
since she opened the school One OF
these ideas is baking delicious cakes
without butter. Many of the famous
cake bakers of Ardmore were skeptical
as to her ability to do this, but Miss
Peet has fully convinced them that
she can do it. Her California Orange
Cake yesterday was a fine one, and
the women who tasted it, said they
could not detect any difference be-
tween it and the richest butter cake.
Miss Peet gave an Interesting les
son yesterday on the proper use OF
the fireess cooker
The ladies of Miss Peets classes
here are not slow to avail themselves
of her invitation to ask questions at
all times. They seem to have a great
many problems for Miss Peet to solve
and find that she is doing this in
most satisfactory manner. She is in
terrupted from time to time with ap-
preciative applause and intelligent
questions and a great many OF them
flock about her platform when the
session is over, to ask more questions
and to thank her for the valuable AS
sistance she is rendering.
Many note books were in evidence
yesterday afternoon and last night.
These note books are very helpful
and we would advise all ladies to car
ry them to the school and make notes
on each lecture.
The Ardmoreite Home Economics
School will close on Friday. There will
be another interesting session tomor-
row afternoon at 2:3O, and two ses.
sions on Friday. On this last day of
the school Miss Pete conducts what
she calls an open school. She holds
two sessions in order that her classes
need not be so large. and the women
attending can get into closer personal
touch with her and see a little better
just how she cooks.
