The Chamber OF Commerce held a
luncheon at Hotel Rogers TUESDAY
the first since February 20 and ~
course there were many things To be
discussed. George patten filled the
chair and after a substantial peal
dispatched business as rapidly as
possible, but owing to congestion Ct
business occasioned by failure 20
meet in regular weekly luncheons Il
took full half hour overtime to
complete the discussions ana take
final action on matters peeding.
Secretary Sehuster announced that
the pulmotor committee had eomplet-
ed the work of collecting subscrip-
tons and had paid for the pulmotor.
which already had been pressed into
service.
Lynn d. Lasswe11 gave an outline
of the work done by the base bail
committee, saying the park had been
completed to the satisfaction of Man
ager Jennings at a cost of about So
600, of which deficit of about ST.
200 would be carried over until next
year. In this same connection Mana
ger Harrison of Hotel Rogers stated
that he received $3,0S4.26 from the
Tigers party, of which he paid out
$4,000 in Waxahachie. He said
money paid him was distributed
among the business men of the town
and thus many were benefited.
Will Moore made a statement as to
the work of the committee on the tel
ephone merger, saying the commit
tee had carried out instructions as
near as possible and that the merger
matter was now before the council
This brought out objection from G.
C. Groce and ]. Lea Cannon and a
long discussion followed.
In the matter of cooperating with
patrons of rural mail routes in an
effort to get the pony and cart routes
back objection was made by T. II,
Hardin, who said he favored the
motor routes, by by ]. Lea Cannon
who declared he was opposed to the
Chamber of Commerce making re-
commentators to the department,
and G.. c. Groce who favored giving
the cooperation outside of the Cham
Der of Commerce organization, but
the word of the directorate had been
given to lend every possible assls-
lance and nothing short of hearty
cooperation would satisfy the men
who have undertaken 10 pacify an
outraged citizenship. Messrs. Dur
ham, Roberts, Mincey, Sehuster and
others, who had met with the patrons
of rural routes, insisted that the

cation fulfil the promise OF the d.

FORMER SLAVES OF
 22 STATES TO MEET

One of the most remarkable gath eri1gs in the history of the country will take place October 22 to 30, says the Washington Post of recent date, when former slaves now scattered over 42 states will meet in convention here and will be given food and cloth ing by their former masters and owners.
 Many of the former slaves have passed the century mark. Uncle Nel- son Keith, who is 1O6 years old, will be one of the speakers. Robert Lee, once a slave of Gen. Robert F.. Lee, will preach a sermon, as will John Jackson, who was once the property of Gen. Stonewall Jackson. Old plan tation melodies will feature the ses- sions.
 Railroads have granted excursion rates and steamboat companies will assist in bringing the old negro men and women at reduced rates. Former slave owners have made generous con tributions to insure the success of the unique affair John Wilkinson, of Danville, Va, whose father owned 2,OOO slaves, was the first to assist.

RIVERHEAD, L.. l., Oct. 19.-If it takes ten yards of scrambled eggs to make an oyercoat for an elephant" one ingenious man once asked an other, "how far would you have to drop a cranberry to break a shingIe 2" But the question here today is: "If it takes a quart of strawberry jam to make one sulrragist in Binghampton, how many old Dutch crullers does it take to make a sufrragist in River head?" The answer will be given tonight by the sufTragists making cruilcra to make male votes for wom- en at the county fair here and their sisters slathering strawberry jam and jelly around to do the same thing up in Binghampton.

INTERIOR MINES
LOOKING GOOD

Mining in and around the White horse district is looking up. "All of the men interested in the mines around Whitehorse are looking for big things to happen within the next year" said Vincent Dortero, to a representative of the Daily Alaskan, when quizzed as to interior conditions. Mr. Dortero has just returned from an interior trip in the inerests of his steamship agency. This statement is upheld by the remarks of Editor A. NJ. Rousseau, who informed his friends in the Garden City that "If the interior developments which are breaking out in my district bear fruit you people of Skagway can look for some mighty good times"
 Work at the Pueblo mine is rushing ahead. A new boiler is being install led. The old sheds around the mine are being torn down and new ones erected in their stead. Everything puts for the appearance of being pros porous. Work is being rushed at the War Eagle mine. This mine runs about 70 per cent minerals and is handicapped only by poor transporta- tion facilities in getting their output to the railroad for shipment. The Copper King is showing some good prospects and the operators are en- thusiastic over the outcome. "Busi- ness in general in the City by the Rapids, is away above that of last year" said Messrs. Dortcro and Rous- seau.

BRITISH MOTORISTS HAVE
 MORE TROUBLE GETTING
 GAS THAN AMERICAN ONES

LONDON, Oct. 20. - If American motorists feel troubled over the cost of gas for their buzz carts, let them listen to the Britishers' troubles and rejoice at their own good fortune.
 The British private motor car own CT is unable to get the gas he wants at any price. When German submar- ines began torpedoing the oil tank ships from the United States, the American oil men quit shipping it. Consequently gasoline is so scarce in England that it is given out by card to car owners in very limited quanti- ties.
 Not only is the private motor car compelled to present his oil card whenever he wants to run his machine few miles, but the little gas he gets is begrudged him. Many a motor car is in it's garage until after the war on this account.
 The government has allowed 60 per cent of the amount of gas demanded by commercial car owners, 50 per cent of that asked for taxis, 25 per cent Of the private motor owners demand and ? gal a month for motorcycles.
 All evidences point to the doom of private motoring until after the war. And the private motor car owners blame the submarines and the Ameri- can oil shipper.
