Ball Playing at
Outrigger Beach
Held Dangerous
Henry w. Kinney Thinks 0rdi-
nance Would Put Stop
to Practise

This, says Henry w Kinney. Is a
case either for the police OF the super
yisorsi -..E
. Phil B. Danky narrowly escaped a..
sassinatIon on the beach near the
Outrigger Club recently when a water.
soaked baseball, whizzing through the
air. missed his head by only a few
inches. r..
Kinney is Of the opinion th3t the
bah was not thrown Intentionally. The
missile doubtless was the result Of
poor fielding or wild throwing On the
part Of some bather, he says But he
declares that the practise Of playing
baseball on the beach and il, the
water should be stopped. and for this
reason opines ii is a case eitiler for
the police or city dads.
1T would have been sorry dag
for Danky had he been hit with that
baseball says Kinney The ball
barely missed him Ii is getting so
that one cannot get a bath at the
Outrigger Club without endangering
himself to being hit by flying base
balls. IL all those who play ball were
professionals it would be different
but most OF those who play don't even
know how TO catch bah. Balls fly
eyerywhere!": j..
Kinney states he has been informed
by Alexander Hume Ford that the
only way to stop the ball playing
would be through an ordinance But
we haven't such an ordinance here"
he adds. land Ford says we should
have ONE.
Personally" he declares, 81 am in
favor Of an ordinance or any other
means of stopping this. ball playing.
One cannot lie on the beach without
having ball players running all over
him. let alone the danger of being hit.
But If Danky and Ford cannot stop
it, / don't think that anything could
say would amount TO much"
Kinney says he has never been hit
by baseball, but that he is taking
some awful chances every time he
goes in swimming.

men" who have no specific duties to
perform, and who are authorized to
loaf all the time they are in port.
A common tramp steamer, under this
law, must have separate crews Of
firemen, oilers and water tenders.
The laws of all nations deal kind
ly with the sailor, giving him more
protection than is afforded to any
other occupation. He is rigidly pro-
tected against abuse or oppression
He signs his contract in the presence
of government officer, and his final
settlement when he is discharged is
supervised by the government, to pro-
tect him against fraud. If he is taken
sick in a strange port, or If he gets
into trouble through his own miscon-
duct, the consul of his country takes
care of him. If he is stranded and
can not get work, his consul pays his
way home. His food is regulated by
law, in quantity and quality, and he
fares twice as well as the hired man
on the farm or the worker in any
other occupation. His quarters must
be sanitary. and comply with rigid
inspection, and even the amount of
air space in his sleeping quarters is
fixed by law. All nations protect
their sailors by these laws, without
allowing them to run the ship"
The American law goes beyond rea-
son by running the employer or ship
owner with conditions which drive
the American flag from the ocean
The hobo sailor is allowed to run the
ship according to his own notions,
and the maritime nations which
might fear American competition can
go on earning enormous profits in
the business Of carrying American
commerce.

The Seamen's Bill.

There has been much discussion
of the seamen's bill, enacted by the
last congress, and further discussion
is necessary before the purpose of
the bill is fully understood. The
hand of fate has rested heavily on
American shipping in the past fifty
years, and this bill has already
driven from the ocean several Amer
lean steamship lines which had sur
vived the tyrannical legislation of
the past.
1t promotes and protects drunken
ness and desertion, and it divides the
crew of ship into classes or castles
The sailor is forbidden to take a
turn at shoveling coal, or to make
contract to assist in the firing, and
the fireman is forbidden to come on
deck and take a hand at learning the
trade of a sailor Oilers and water
tenders also are created as separate
castes.
If the law applied only to large
passenger ships which carry thou
sand or more people its caste provis
ions might be reasonable to promote
safety, but it applies to every class
of ships. On freight steamers any
caste system in the crew is fatal if
American ships are 10 compete with
those of other nations.
On the freight ships of the mari
time nations everybody works. The
crews take their turn in the fire room
or wherever there is any work to be
done The owners of these ships
are not required to carry aristocratic
able seamen who loll about the decks
during a voyage and quit the ship the
moment it arrives in port. The fire
men on these ships do the oiling
and attend to the pumps. The Ameri-
can law requires that a ship shall
carry a large crew Of idle "able sea-

NO APPOINTMENT YET
FOR SUPREME JUDGE

Washington, d. c., Jan. 13.-Presi
dent Wilson and Attorney General
Gregory Monday night held a confer.
ence to consider candidates for the
vacancy of the United States supreme
court, caused by the death of Justice
Lamar. Afterward the attorney gen.
eral said no decision had been reached
and the field still was open.
A democrat is almost certain to be
selected. Former President Taft has
been suggested for the vacancy, but it
is understood there is no prospect of
his being chosen. Attorney General
Gregory and John w. Davis, solicitor
general, who also have been mention
ed, are not being considered because,
if appointed, they would not be eligible
to participate in several important
cases now pending, because they took
part in preparation of the govern
ments argument.
The president is seeking to find as
young a man as possible who is quail
fed.

BILL WOULD
REGULATEFED-
ERAL PERMITS
SHEPPARD OF TEXAS WOULD
PROHIBIT LIQUOR LICENSE TO
DRY TOWNS-A PROHIBITION
MOVE.

Washington, Jan. 13.-The privi-
ege of wholesale and retail liquor
dealers in engaging in the business
under federal license in localities
where the sale of liquor is prohibited
by law would be denied under terms
of a bill introduced by Senator Shep-
pard of Texas, and is in furtherance
of the campaign of the prohibition
forces to deny the protection of the
federal government to those who
would violate the laws of a state or
lesser subdivision. A federal license
may be obtained without regard to
local conditions. Under the Sheppard
bill the applicant would be required
to name the place and the jurisdic-
ton wherein he proposes to operate,
as is now required, but in addition to
show that the laws do not prohibit
the business. Failure to show that
would work a refusal of the license
to operate by authority of the federal
government. This change in the law
has been demanded for number OF
wears by the anti-saloon leagues of
the nation and the states.

LOOKING FOR WORK

Everywhere men complain ABOUT
work; even boys and girls in school or
business find work tedious and irk-
some, but it isn't the work half SO much
as their own lack of physical strength
that makes it hard.
Rich blood, strong lungs and health
full digestion make work pleasurable
in business, in school or even house
work, and if those who are easily tired
who are not sick, but weak and ner-
vous-would just take SCOTS Emul-
sion for one month and let its pure
concentrated food create richer blood
to pulsate through every artery and
vein-let it build structure of healthy
tissue and give you vigorous strength
you would find work easy and would
look for more. Insist on SCOTS.

ester, who is one of the committee OF
members of the legislature engaged
in shaping bills against the conven-
ing of the legislature next week, was
recently elected president of the Ok
lahoma organization of promoters of
the jefferson highway. He is deeply
interested in this road, and has a
plan for constructing the Oklahoma
section OF the road within the next
few years. He would build it of
brick or concrete, making the road
way about fourteen feet wide. The
route of the highway as chosen at
the recent convention in New Or
leans follows the Missouri, Kansas
& Texas railway through Oklahoma.
Mr.. Nesbitt's plan contemplates is
suance OF bonds by the counties
through which the highway will pass.
In order to make the bond issue
popular 1t is his desire to change
the state constitution so that the
bonds may be issued for forty years,
a longer term than is now recogniz-
ed by the fundamental law of the
state. It is believed by Mr.. Nesbitt
that by making the bonds forty-year
issues and creating no sinking fund
for the first ten years they run the
hn
owing to the increasing amount of
land that is becoming taxable in old
Indian Territory each year. After
ten years a sinking fund would be
provided to retire the bonds serially
beginning at twenty years from date
of issue.
By using the labor of the state
prisoners and manufacturing the ma
terial for construction of the road
from the raw material at hand along
its route he believes a vitrified brick
or concrete road can be built through
this state along the route designated
for $1,000 a mile.
The road will practically follow the
Missouri, Kansas & Texas railway
from Kansas City to Greenville,
where it will turn to the eastward
and reach Shreveport on the way to
New Orleans.
There are number OF matters
connected with the highway law that
must be settled by the coming spe-
cial session, Mr. Nesbitt believes, but
he sees no reason for that extending
the length of the session, as the
members are to be afforded all the
facts at the outset. 1t has been sug-
gested by some of the onlookers VINO
are pessimistic of the special session
that to open the highway law for
consideration will result in probable
extension of the session beyond the
date that has been agreed upon for
adjournment.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
By local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure catarr-
hal deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness Is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube
When this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result. Unless the inflam
nation can be reduced and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever. Many
cases of deafness are caused by ca
tarrh, which is an inflamed condition
of the mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh
Cure acts through the blood on the mu-
cous surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Catarrhal Deafness
that cannot be cured by Halls Ca

LONG DELAYED CONTROVERSY
OVER TITLE HAS AT LAST BEEN
CLEARED. PROPOSED TO OPEN
SCHOOL IN SEPTEMBER.

Jack Simmons representing the DEM
ing Investment Company of Oklaho-
ma City, was here today on business
and stated that his company, which
held the mortgage against the old Har-
grove College property, had been no.
tilted that the government had approv-
ed the title and had issued a check for
the property that would be received
through the Muskogee office and that
the property would be transferred
within a few days. 1t has been re-
ported that the school will open in
September, but in the meantime there
are many improvements to be made
on the buildings and grounds. Water
will be secured from the city which
agreed some time ago to furnish it
free for a long period, if the govern
ment would install the mains, and the
same agreement applies to the sewer
age system. Some of the work was
started over two years ago, but came
to halt when it was found that there
was some question of the title being
perfect. The water mains will be con-
nected near the stand pipe and the
sewer will connect with the city sewer
at the city limits.

FRENCH PAY A PREMIUM
ON GOODS FROM ENGLAND
British Government May Permit
Sending of Capital to Re-
lieve Situation.

LONDON. April 25.-One OF the most
serious problems which London and
Paris must settle shortly is that of ex-
change. For months past the franc
has been falling steadily in relation to
the pound sterling. until now it costs
in Paris 20 francs to buy a pound. as
compared with the normal rate of u
francs.
The resultant burden on French
buy pounds sterling to pay for the i'm
mense quantities of goods she is COM
PEELED to obtain to make good the de-
ficiencies caused by the invasion OF
her northeastern distriHS. The British
government has no desire to take ad-
vantage of the situation to exact in
creased profits from her ally, but the
problem Is not easy to solve.
In the case of the United States
Great Britain got over the exchange
difficulty by acquiring American secur-
tiles and selling them in New York
as occasion requires. Frenchmen do
not hold any considerable volume OF
English securities which would be sal
able in London. The only other alter
native. therefore, is to permit British
capital to go to Paris. At present this
is forbidden, for the reason that Eng
land requires all the capital she can
get for her own loans. 1t is proba
BILE. however. that the prohibition viii
now be suspended. in order to meet the
special needs of France.
The suspension made recently in the
case of the French government loan
gave evidence of the eagerness of Eng
curities. This loan is now quoted In
London at good premium.
