Suppose this had happened last week
in the suffrage convention:
THE delegate has sweetbreads for
brains when she makes such a charge
shouted Mrs. X. of Blank.
Mrs Y, as she finished reading the dis
patch, leaped toward the middle aisle,
overturning Delegate w as she did so,
and rushed toward Mrs. X.
Would it not prove that women were
too emotional to vote?
But as it, or something similar, took
place only in the United States Senate,
it is not considered to prove anything

result of the vote in the elections of
1912, in each of these states:
Arizona .....7.2 Montana .....3.4
California ...0.01 Nevada SO
Colorado .....7.8 Wyoming 80. 90
1t seems as if little work on either
side would go long way.
you are too pretty to be fined, but
the next homely woman that comes be-
fore me for the same offence will have
to suffer-" said Justice Duyster, of Glen

We wonder how the next homely
woman will view the indirect influence
as a complete system of protection.

Not too proud
Just proud enough.
Yet they cannot but recall the recent

nation for high office:
"They (the people of the United
States) are not in the habit of rejecting
those who have actually served them

In this connection we are in posi-

stunt. In a little more than seven
years this remarkable .youngstor has
covered Better than 1900 miles on
foot and he hopes 10 send his general
total to higher than 10000 before he
retires. Brown holds many champion

kee back in 1908. lie covered the
distance in Il hours, "a minutes and
IA seconds. out of l3z races he has
participated in Brown has lost but
four and they were handicap affairs.
He is 23 years of age and his home is

formance on a treadmill, and gives an
interesting talk on the benefits of this
form of exercise

MADE BED OF A
PEW IN CHURCH
Whether Intruder in HOyl Family
Church Secured Cash Has Not
Been Determined.

One night last week someone
broke into the Holy Family church
and made bed of one of the pews.
Before retiring he evidently exam
ined everything in the big audi
torum, although it has not yet been
discovered whether anything was
stolen. That the intruder was a
tramp is thought certain from the
footprints on the aisle carpet and
scars on the pew woodwork, and it
may have been there were more
than one in the party.
Entrance was gained by forcing a
door, it is understood, after which
the intruders took their time in
making an inspection of the church
II is thought one of the collection
boxes was tampered with. but there
was no one associated with the
church who yesterday admitted that
money had been stolen.

Last Week Has Seen Many
Developments in the
Baseball World.
GROUNDS READY SOON
BY Last Of Week Danbury
viii BE Ready for the
First Game.

Providing the weather is fair the
first crack of the bat against the
horsehide will be heard in Tulsa on
the afternoon of Monday, March 20.
This was the announcement of Man
ager Norman Price yesterday when
he said that all players had been or
dered to report in Tulsa for practice
on that date.
Starting practice on March 20 will
give Price exactly an even month to
whip his team into shape for the
opening of the season. However, the
Producers will be crowded in getting
into shape for the first practice
games, some of which come only
few days after the date set for the
beginning of training.
As the baseball season draws
nearer prospects for a pennant-con-
tending team become brighter Only
one new player. Robert Mercer, was
signed yesterday. lie is an infielder
and comes from Paducah, Ky Ac-
cordt ~ to reports coming to Price,
Mercer is fast fielder and a con-
sistent slugger.
Although only one new man was
added to the roster yesterday the
past week in baseball has not been a
quiet one. Perhaps the greatest ac-
QUESTION of the week was the sign
ing of Rufus Powell of Bokoshe,
Okla. Powell is a protege of George
Foster, hero of the last world series.
Fosters home is at Bokoshe and
Powell has been trained by the world
series hero. He is expected to be
one of the best twirlers in the west
ern association this season.
Others who have signed Producer
contracts are Charles Beaver. south
paw, who played last season with the
Nebraska State league; John Lewis.
southpaw, of Nowata; Ralph Heatley.
outfielder who was obtained by Price
from McAlester: Byron Jones, out
fielder: Earl Gay, outfielder; Claude

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

II you want to keep your hair in
good condition. be careful what you
wash II with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali This dries
the scalp. makes the hair brittle, and
Is very harmful. Just plain mulsified
cocoanut oil (which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless). IL much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing. as
this can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub II in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abundance
of rich. creamy lather. and cieansss
the hair and scalp thoroughly. The
lather rinses out easily and removes
every particle Of dust, dirt, dandruff,
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and II leaves II
fne and silky. bright. fuffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsihed cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. II 10 very
cheap, and q few ounces 10 enough to
last everyone in the family for
