RUSSIANS TAKE:
TURK|SHPORT
Of TREb|Z0ND
THOUSAND MEN DE-
TENDING BLACK SEA PORT, UN-
ABLE TO REPULSE ATTACK OF
SLAVS.

Petrograd, April 19.-(via London)
Trebizond, the most important Turkish
city on the Back Sea, has been cap
tured by the Russians.
Trebizond is a city of Asia Minor
on the Black Sea, SIS miles east OF
Constantinople and 100 miles north OF
Erzerum, the town stoned by the Rus
slams on February 16. Trebizond has
a population of about forty thousand
including some eighteen thousand
Christians.
The importance of the Black Sea
port was due to its command of the
point where the chief trade route from
Persia and Central Asia descends tC
the sea.
Since the fall of Erzerum and the
capture three weeks later of Bitlis
the Turks are said to have increased
the Trebizond garrison to about $4,000
men.

AWARDED PAV n
INC CONTRACT
LAST NIGH 7
NEW PAVING COMPANY IN THE
FIELD AWARDED CONTRACT
FOR PAVING C STREET SOUTH
WEST, BY CITY COUNCIL.

There was quiet little surprise
sprung at the meeting of the board Of
city commissioners last night when
bids were opened for paving G street,
S. w, from Stanley boulevard to
Moore street, and when the surprise
had in some manner subSided, ii was
discovered that the Southwestern
Gravel Co. represented in this city by
former Mayor James A. Cotner had
been awarded the contract over the
Ardmore construction company repre-
sented by w. A. Edwards. The new
company had not been considered in
the transaction, in fact few people
were aware that the eX-mayor had a
joker up his sleeve until the pot was
captured and the other competitors
were on the outside looking in. The
unsuccessful bidder, aided and abetted
by certain of the council was inclined
to raise a kick, but finally the inevi-
table was evident and the bid was al
lowed to stand.
The Southwestern Gravel Company
is a new one in the field and hence
forth will enter bids for all paving
work in this and adjoining cities. The
bids of the respective companies were
as follows: Ardmore Construction
Company, $4,000; Southwestern GRAY.
el Co. $S,9OS.9O. A resolution was
passed authorizing the city engineer
TO prepare plans and specifications for
paving part of Bixby Ave, S. w.
Regular bills against the city were
audited and allowed.

PREPARED A THREE DAYS PRO-
GRAM WILL BE ARRANGED
PROBABLY ABOUT JULY d.

As soon as the grand stand is erect
ed. and the track at the fair grounds
put in first class condition, it is
planned by the chamber of commerce,
the business mems association and the
automobile association to have three
days race meet here.
This, according to present plans will
be some time about the first of July,
probably beginning the fourth, and
should be as great an attraction to out
side dealers as the recent style show
was.

tiating for the grand stand at Lorena
Park, and as soon as possible it will
be transferred to the fair grounds, If
the association succeed in purchasing
it. Otherwise a new stand will be
erected. The association desires this

commodious in the state and would
be ideal for the gair grounds.
President Mulkey of the local auto
mobile dealers association will confer
with the secretary of the chamber OF
commerce, the business mems associa
tion and the secretary of the fair asso
citation and some definite plans may be
looked for in the near future relative

INSPECTING TWlNE FACTORIES
Members of Board of Public Affairs
Planning to Install Plant.

Oklahoma City, April 1S.-S. i.
Morley and J. NJ. Aydelotte of the
state board of public affairs have
gone to inspect the twine factories
at the state prisons of Kansas and
Minnesota. They are preparing to
install the twine factory that has
been authorized by the legislature
for the state prison of Oklahoma and
seek to profit by the experience OF
the other states in this respect.
The twine factory at McAlester
will be installed in the new factory
building that is being completed on
the prison grounds. The use of this
building will accomplish asaving for
the state out of the appropriation
made for the factory permitting more
money to be used for the machinery
and material than would have been
the case if the building had been
erected from the same fund.
It is the plan of the board of af
FAIRS to have the twine plant in op
Grafton by the end of the coming
summer, if possible so that a supply
of twinc may be ready for the 1911
harvest in this state, provided there
be no unnecessary delays and a
supply of raw material shall be avail
able. ~'
The prison twine factory is the
most extensive state prison industry
so far undertaken except the prison
farms.

ESSENTIALS
Of Pr AYE R
ARE OUTLINED
DR.. M. 3. WILLIAMS TELLS OF
lREMENTS OF THE SIMPLE
ELEMENTS OF FAITH, SINGER
ITY AND SELF-lMMOLATlON.

For the purpose of creating spirit
of interest in the big revival meeting
being conducted in the tabernacle at
the corner of Broadway and C, north
west, twenty-three cottage prayer
meetings were conducted in different
sections of the city this morning at
10 O'Clock. At three o'clock this af-
ternoon DR.. Williams delivered one
of his interesting bible talks at the
tabernacle. He will continue these
talks at the same hour tomorrow and
Friday. Cottage prayer meetings will
be held again tomorrow morning
Notice of the place and leader Of
each meeting will be given in The
Ardmoreite.
The work of the chorus was excep-
tionally good last night. Prof. Bray
and wife are endearing themselves 10
the entire city by reason of their
ability and thorough conservation to
their work. Mrs. Bray led the union
prayer meeting at the tabernacle yes
terday and in a sweet spirited man
ner gave valuable hints to the lead
ers on the manner of conducting cot
tage prayer meetings. Her religious
enthusiasm proved contagious, and
today has spread over the entire city.
DR.. Williams was in spiritual
mood last evening when he faced an
audience that almost filled the big
tabernacle. "The Birth of Nation
and the tent show within a block of
the tabernacle did not affect the meet
ing. so far as one could tell, only a
few of the accustomed faces being
missing. DR.. Williams believes that
there is but one way to create a re-
ligious upheaval in the city of Ard
more, and that prayer is the means
Being so forcibly impressed with
that idea. he delivered another ser
mon on the subject of prayer" and
his remarks were pointed, kind form
| ed from sound judgment, but very
frank. He is doing everything he
can to bring a revival to Ardmore
that comes from God, rather than
from mans excitement. The burden
of his heart is to actually revive the
| churches of the city and add hun
dreds to the fold.
The evangelist used Mark 11:24
for his text last evening. He stated
that many people get wrong idea
from this text that might be product
i've of great harm. every infidel has
some reason which he assigns tol
! his infidelity," said DR.. Williams
"and many of them assign the fac'
that their prayers are unanswered III
the face of the promise contained IN
the text.
DR.. Williams insisted that 1t Is
absolutely useless to pray, unless We
believe the things we pray for. "Af
! ter all other conditions of prayer
have been complied with they should
be bound together by the disposition
Thy will be done Jesus prayed thai
praver Himself and it is necessary
that we pray that way. However

Austin, Tex, April 19.-Governor
Ferguson says he has received no re-
quest to call out companies of the
Texas national guard to guard the

Washington, d. c., April iY.
President Wilson sent his
note to Germany today warn
ing that nation that unless the
attacks upon merchantmen car
trying Americans, in violation of
international law are stopped,
diplomatic relations will be sew
cred. The president revealed
this to Senators Stone and
Lodge and Representatives
Flood and Cooper, the ranking
democratic and republican
members of the congressional
foreign affairs committee at an
early White House conference
today.
The president explained that
the note was practically an ul-
timatum, but does not contain
a time limit. A demand is
made, however, that Germany
reply Immediately.
President Wilson told con-
gress in joint session this after
noon that he had given Ger
many irrevocable notification
that the United States will
break off diplomatic relations
if her illegal submarine cam
paign is continued.
| The note, Americas last
word, practically an ultimatum
and demanding an immediate
reply, was presumably in Ber-
+ lin foreign office as the presi-
dent spoke.
The president asked no
action of congress, simply in
forming it of the accumulated
facts, proving Germany's as
surances to the United States
had been violated, that the sub
marine campaign despite the
protests of the United States is
being conducted with renewed
vigor in contravention of all
laws of nations and humanity,
and that he means to sever re-
lations, depends upon Ger
many's conduct.
Representatives of the allies
countries filled the diplomatic
galleries, as the president be-
gan his review of the German
campaign. There was no de-
monstration to punctuate his re-
cital of the sacrifice of Ameri-
can lives and no sound above
the presidents voice as the
president spoke the word 'Lu-
sitania."
Every head was bowed forward as
the president indicated that he was
approaching the keynote of his mes
sage - the announcement of the
course he will pursue. His declara-
tion that Germany has made it plain
that she intends to continue the in
discriminate warfare in defiance of
international law and the protests of
the United States was followed by
the statement that this determination
had left but one course open to the
United States.
When he pronounced the words of
the ultimatum, declaring that unless
Germany should Immediately declare
and effect an abandonment of the in
discriminate submarine warfare, this
government would have no choice but
to sever diplomatic relations, there
was still no demonstration,--on a
tense silence and reflection Of the
gravity of his words.
When he concluded with the ex-
preston Of hope that Germany would
so act as to avert a regrettable break
with America, the assemblage broke
into cheers. It was TIA o'clock
when the president concluded. He
had spoken Just fifteen minutes. The
!. applause started from the democratic
side and the republican members
