Brand New Sport In

by Australians
FIND ZEST OF.
CHASE KEEN
Game, When Started,
Hops Away at Rate Of
As Miles Per Hour

SYDNEY, Australia. March a.
A new form OF real sport has been
discovered In Notwithstanding
kangaroos by motor car.
The mere chase alone il said to
be productive OF many thrills, call
\ ing for fast car guided by an
adept hand. To pilot a motor car
through the open country. over
fields dotted with rabbit warrens
and bunch grass bunkers, at a
speed OF 40 or 4b miles an hour.
calls for steady nerves, a cool head
and consummate skill.
AZ the shooting Is done over the
/ side OF the car the man at. the
wheel Is forced TO vancouver his
craft much after the fashion OF a
man-o'-war In order to give the
rifles chance. The hunters shoot
from n humping, swaying seat at a
target which moves as fast IL not
faster than the car. The range
varies from so to 100 yards.
The fact that prolo nged
drought had made the kangaroos a
pest ~ the vicinity OF watering
places, caused the WillysOverland
distributor TO offer HIS services and
HIS cars toward Kidding the coun-
try OF numbers OF the troublesome
animals. Heretofore Il had been
found exceedingly difficult TO bag
the creatures without persistent
and expert stalking. Kangaroos
will run As miles an hour with dn-
juries that would stop n human
being In HIS tracks. A wounded
ROO can easily outdistance the

A letter contains an interesting
description OF the unique hunt. An
early morning start was made from
Adelaide in an Overland car and

live point being the plains. some
80 miles distant, where the kanga-

Bargain day in Ardmore next We'd
nesday is to be "humdinger.' From
every part of the county inquiries are
being made, and the indications are
that 1t will exceed any day in the his
tory of the city. Out of town patrons

A uniform display card was adopted

enters the store so he will know that
he is visiting one of the fifty mer-

Secretary Gilbert returned in time
to be at the meeting, and reported
acute interest out in the county.

COMMITTEE REJECTS THREE
Could Find No Merit in Them and
DisalloWs Them.

The citizens committee is making
a record for throwing. cases out OF
court that come before them for ad-
iustment, where the Santa Fe claim
department failed to make SETTLE
ment with the claimants.
Yesterday three cases were up for
hearing, and all three were disalow-
ed by the committe. Two We're per
sona injury cases, and one was for
loss of business, alleged to be caused
by the explosion.
In one of the personal injury cases
the committee was shown testimony
that convinced them that the claim
ant was in the habit of entering suit
against corporations for personal in
iuries. although this was stoutly de-
MED by the claimant who main
tanned that it was a party of the
same name. However, the claim was
not allowed, and was dropped from
the rolls.
The committee adjourned yesterday
TO meet Monday morning, when sew
cral cases that have been set for
hearing will be heard. Up to last
night 1,70S cases had been settled
and closed by the claim department
of the Santa Fe railroad.

ACTED WITH HASTE~

The commissioners seemed to have
acted rather hastily in the matter
of seeking out successor for Kelly
Brown for the state legislature. While
they used good judgment in selecting
man for appointment, that appoint
ment will in all probability not be
made. Mr.. Brown gave early thought
to his removal from the city and
talked over the matter with Cover
nor Williams, and it has been his in
tention all the time to attend
special session, If it is called, as a
representative of this county.
No county of Oklahoma ever had
harder working or more loyal
member of the Legislature than Carter
county had in Kelly Brown. We had
the opportunity of observing his
work. and know that what we say Is
true. Mr.. Brown was serving his first
term, but before that brief session
was over he was looked to as one
of the leading members of the lower
house. Some of the brightest men
In the state are in the lower house
of the legislature, and the fact that
Kelly Brown was considered to be
among the leading members of the
house at his first term, is speaking
much for his ability as member of
that body In this connection we
want to say this for Kelly Brown
and the same can be said for Senator
Fred Tucker, who represents this
district from Ardmore, that both Of
them did not belong to the class who
visited the rooms of lobbyists where
drinks are given away, but they de
voted their entire attention to the
most efficient and conscientious labor
that could be rendered to any people
and when men like those are found,
no county and no people should has
ten to retire them from office.
In our opinion we believe that al
most every citizen of Carter county
will be glad to have Kelly Brown
serve out his entire term of office.
In saying that, we do not mean to
say that Frank Bourland is not also
equipped for such work Mr.. Bour-
land is a graduate of Leland Stanford
University, he is learned in the law,
and is a quiet, hard-working man,
of unusual attaimments. But if it
can be legally done, Carter county
would prefer to have its business
looked after by the man whom it
elected for that purpose. While for
business reasons Mr.. Brown is away
from Ardmorc at this time, yet he is
stll our friend His absence has
only made him grow fonder to us,
and his most pleasant memories clus-
ter about this city. where his boy
hood was spent where his early han
dicaps were overcome, and where he
graduated from our city schools.

Charleston he visited Maiden. the

DIR. Redo IN COURT.
Arrested on a charge of performing q
criminal operation.

DIR. J. H. Redd, was arrested Mon
day night by Deceive Thomas Glea-
SON, on a charge of having performed
a criminal operation on Eleanor Titus,
white woman, who is critically i'll at
the City Hospital He was released
on bail furnished by Doctors Wilcox
and Hynes, two leading white physi-
clans. Owing to the condition of the
woman DR.. Redd was held pending
an investigation, upon charges made
by one of the internes at the hospital.
He was taken to the bedside of the
woman, who testified that she had
called on him, after having attempted
self abortion. DR.. Redd admitted
having attended her in this condition,
and the records show that he COM
mitted her to the hospital. An ex-
animation proved she had not under
gone professional operation, but was
suffering from self-afflicted wounds.
The county authorities acted on in
formation furnished by one of the in
ternes at the hospital. DR.. Redd was
represented by Attorneys B. S. Smith
and Gale P. Hilyer. He took his ar
rest as matter of legal form and was
not disturbed as far as his connection
with the case was concerned.
DR.. J. H. Redd has suffered the en-
barassment of arrest and underwent
the trying ordeal of confinement, just
because of the ignorance and perhaps
prejudice of some understudy at the
City Hospital. In spite of his high
professional standing and his state
ment in the presence of the supposed
dying woman, which was corrobor-.
ated, he was held to uphold the
majesty of the law. There was no
cause for such hasty action, and had
Mr.. Rivkin of the County Attorneys
office consulted his superiors, DR..
Redd could have appeared and fur
nished bail. We regret that such 1T
tie consideration is given the men of
our race, who are deserving of better
treatment. Negroes ask no immunity
from the law, but demand equality be-
fore the law. Give us the same privi-
leges accorded other races.
