I The saloon takes the fruit OF our
bodies--the boy who is the Joy OF our
homes and hopes Of our old age--and
makes him a degraded sot and lower
than beast.
For what? For what ask, does the
Saloon do this damnable work? For
money. Money he wants and will
violate all law and defy all authority
for money. Have you ever seen mil
Ter OF the old school empty grain into
his hopper to grind into feed? The
saloon or blind-pig takes manhood in
its splendor and destroys 1t. The hus-
band the support OF che home. the
bonny lad. the sweet girl, the mother,
the citizen, the patriot, and mixes them
with the sorrows and tears and broken
hearts OF loved ones and grind them
into money. That's dear way to get
money. They know not what they do
They do not recognize the fact that
eternity will bring no other pictures
or joys for men who have so blighted
the world, than a continual review OF
their lives on earth and the awfulness
Of their sin.

Mayor Mullen has invited several
ladies of this city to assist in max
ing up a program to be given at the
Soldiers Home tomorrow night, and
they will endeavor to make the in
itial performance a success.
The board of trustees suggested
this to the city commissioners some
time ago, and the old soldiers and
their wives are looking forward to
the opening event eagerly. Music
and dancing will make up the even
ing's entertainment, and the inmates
are expected to participate largely in
the latter.
The party will leave the city about
seven o'clock, to arrive at the home
half hour later, and 1t is anticipated
that quite a number will attend.
Persons interested may telephone
any suggestions to the mayor, and
they will be included in the program,

WHILE FAMILY
IS At CHURCH
GAIN ENTRANCE AND SECURE
SMALL AMOUNT OF CASH AND
A FEW MINOR ARTICLES. RAN
SACKED THE HOUSE.

While A. C. Young and family were
attending church last night, sneak
thieves entered their home in south
east Ardmore and secured a small
amount in cash, and few minor ar
ticles beside ransacking the house
from cellar to garret. The thieves were
evidently acquainted with the premises
and likewise aware that the family
would be away for some time. After
removing dresser drawers and dump
ing their contents on the floor, they
broke open trunks and boxes in their
search for valuables that they could
get away with. Then they sat down
and had a lunch of bread and milk at
their leisure.
The police were informed and began
an immediate investigation, the theory
is that whoever did the work, was very
familiar with local surroundings, and
the police have their eye on several
suspects who live in that immediate
vicinity.

Fired on Life Boats.

Rome, Nov. 11.-How many persons
lost their lives in the sinking of the
Italian liner Ancona by a submarine
/ in the Mediterranean has not been
definitely ascertained, but latest ad-
vices from Naples say that 320 sur
.Nivors have been landed at Tunis
Mports and fifty at Malta. The number
Vof passengers on the Ancona is placed
at 4S2 and the crew has been esti-
mated variously from 90 to 16O. From
172 to 272 persons, therefore, are
unaccounted for.
The Ancona carried boats for the
accommodation of $500, and it is
possible that some of the boats are
still afloat and may bring in addi-
tional survivors in the next twenty
four hours.
The Ancona was torpedoed Tues
day morning, and a Tunis dispatch to
the Giornale d1talia gives a dramatic
though brief account of the attack.
"A submarine approached the An
coma towards noon,' says this ac-
count, "and as soon as the steamer
saw it an attempt was made to es-
cape at full speed. The Ancons was
overtaken and stopped. Then the

A woman, man and two children
were killed; their bodies are at Bi-

THE submarine then disappeared
Immediately, proceeding probably in
the direction of the Aegean sea,
Before sinking, the Ancona was
able to send out a wireless call for
help. This was heard by the station
at BiZerta Aid was sent promptly
and thus 100 passengers and 10 sail
ors were saved, They were taken
to Ferryville lin the environs of
jBizerta), where they were attended
by physicians and the consul
Among the survivors are a num-
ber of wounded emigrants, nearly all
Venetians, and ten Greeks. A num-
Der of the survivors seem to have
lost their reason as the result of
their terrible experiences"
The official list of survivors as is
sued in Rome includes one American
woman, Mrs. Cecil Greil of New York,
143 Italians, 16 Greeks and ] Russian.
The statement is made that twenty
four of the Ancona's passengers were
Americans. OF these no
thing is known at the present time.
