While the celebration in Guthrie
Monday was not exactly of the safe

delightful change from the usual

Thousands spent the day at the sew

were enjoyed by Guthrie people
The races at the fair grounds drew
an unusually large crowd and those
who went were well repaid The ey-
ents were better than expected and
very fast
Crowds began to gather at the
parks early in the morning and gay
parties remained until late at night.
Mineral Wells park attracted the
largest crowd, Several pavilion

RUBBER PENCIL HOLDER
(By Associated Press.)

Glen Cove, July 6,-Frank Holt
would be assassin of J. Pierpont
Morgan, tried to kill himself in his
cell at midnight, Monday night, by
trying to open an artery of his left
wrist with lead pencil.
He took the eraser from the pen
Gil and with his teeth bit the metal
which held the rubber in position
until the edges met.
The result was a fairly sharp weap-
on with a blade perhaps quarter OF
an inch long.
Holt had cut the vein of his wrist
and was bleeding freely when jail
attendant made the discovery
Holt is very weak from loss of blood
and is refusing to eat His removal
to hospital is being considered.
District Attorney Smith said today;

died"
Holt told his keeper early last night
that when arraigned he would tell the

Evidence is accommodating to support
the theory that Holt and Muenter are

ceiyed by the authorities, OF the
