THE BANQUET COMMITTEE
CANNOT BE 5LUFFED

1t is catching before hanging" with
the banquet committee and their plans
go merrily on. Tickets for the event
are selling fast.
Threats of injunction proceedings
against the gridirol committee Of the
Business Mems Banquet which Is to
be held next Monday night at the
Elks' hall failed to have even the
slightest effect on the members Of
that committee,
The gridiron has been builr, and Is
ready to be installed, ard the fuel"
is being placed in position so that
when the fires are lit Monday night
there will be plenty Of "heat" and
plenty of material to roast
Chairman Raines of the ticket COM
mittee has been at work for the past
two days, and reports that the plates
are being taken like hot cakes" and,
as The number is necessarily limited,
reservations must be made at once.
There will be only one hundred
plates, with the utmost limit at one
hundred and twenty. From Mr..
Raines' report, the attendance will
be about equally divided, as the la
dies are just as anxious to see the
men roasted" and toasted as the
men are to see what is in store for
themselves or the other fellow.
An elaborate program is being pre-
pared and will be a strong feature of
the gridiron, if the plans of the ar
rangement committee do not fail.
Chairman Velie Suggs of this com.
mttee is blaming the gridiron COM
mittee for saddling a wife on Dave
Daube, who was appointed chairman
of the reception committee. 1t is
barely possible that the said gridiron
committee expect to furnish the prom
inent Ardmore bachelor with a wife

strict secrecy about their plans, but
from the reporters standpoint, 1t
looks Every suspicious"
Mr.. Strauchon who is to be the
caterer for the occasion, is taking
great pains and interest in seeing
that his part of the evenings enter
tainment shall be in keeping with the
occasion.

CAUSED
BROKEN ARM
YESTERDAY
TOM SLOAN FELL IN FRONT OF
HIS PlCURE SHOW AND SUS-
TANNED A FRACTURE OF THE
LEFT SHOULDER.

Tom Sloan, one Of the proprietors of
the Majestic theatre, slipped on the
ice and fell in the lobby of the theatre
yesterday afternoon, sustaining a frac-
ture of the left arm near the shoul-
der Mr.. Sloan was standing talking
to some friends during the storm, and
as he moved away, slipped on the ice
that had formed and fell heavily to
the ground, his shoulder striking the
iron sill, with the above result.
He was taken to the office of Dr.
Cox and Roadway and his arm placed
in cast, after which he was taken to
his home on South Mil street. DR.. Cox
stated this morning that it would be
some time before the arm was thor
oughly healed, as the fracture was
such that it did not yield to treatment
readily. Mr.. Sloan was resting as COM
fortably as could be expected under
the circumstances this morning.

SITUATION
WAS GREATLY
EXAGGERATED.
COUNTY ATTORNEY SAYS ALL RE-
PORTS THAT LAWlESSNESS
PREVAILED AT RAGTOWN DUR
ING FIRE WE'RE ovERDRAWN.

County Attorney Hardy who spent
the most of two days at Ragtown dur
ing the recent fire, stated yesterday
afternoon that the situation had been
vastly overdrawn with reference to
lawlessness said to prevail there dur
ing the conflagration, and for the
most part the officers had the situation I
well in hand, and the talk of calling
for the state militia was all nonsense
as there was no need of the soldiers,
and that Sheriff Garrett and his men
had the situation well in hand. ut is
true that there was a killing there
while the fire ragged, but the man
killed was one of the class that Is al
ways looking for trouble, and this
might have occurred at any other time
than when it did | think the officers
did remarkably well in handling this
situation and | see no reason for all
the exaggerated reports that have
gone forth relative to the Ragtown'
situation" said the county attorney in
conclusion.
