HARRIS SCORNS
JEALOUSY THEORY
Boston Doctor Mystitled
at Attack by
Colleague.
Try T,leuiph 10 ne Tribunal

Boston, July 22.-In the Arst state
ment made by him since he was shot
and seriously wounded by DR.. Eldridg'
D. Atwood, DR.. Wilfred Z. Harris, presi'
dent of the Massachusetts, College Of
Osteopathy, declared to-day that At
wood had no reason to be Jealous OF
him.
why did the little fool do :" was
his query to his brother-in-law, DR.
Harry W. Conant, Of Cambridge, wher
the latter visited him in the City Hos
pital. DR.. Harris still lies in momen'
tsry expectation Of death. ~,
Or. Harris came very close TO death
when he was operated upon in order
that the bullets in his body might be
removed. Suddenly his heartbeat be
came imperceptible and all signs Of life
disappeared. Prompt use Of artificial
respiration saved him, but the opera
tion had to be postponed.
The diary of the dead girl, DR.. Celia
Adams. is in possession Of the police,
who believe that 1t will be important in
making out the states case. Prob
ably the last entry was written Sunday
night or Monday: MET Ellie" CDR.
Atwood at the South Station at 1880
Sunday night. We went to Revere
Beach and sat long time on the
sand. Discussed matter further"
The police are eager TO know what
matter" is referred to, and what its
bearing was on the life of the girl oste-
opath. A paper found in her waste
basket may also be of Importance, the
police believe. II read:
ASK DR.. Harris what treatment was
in this case"
II this was a memorandum written
Monday, it would indicate that she
then had no intention of ending her
life.
DR.. Atwood, it was learned to-day, in
timated to the police in his first inter
view that prior TO the day he shoe DR..
Harris he had contemplated suicide
amid his worries over his sweetheart.
DR.. Atwood stated that he had little
or no sleep for four or five nights after
DR.. Adams had told him the alleged
story Of her betrayal by DR.. Harris.
The police discovered to-day that the
telephone message to DR.. Atwood's
home in Woburn came from servant
in the Adams home, at the instance OF
Mrs. Adams, the dead girls mother.

WILL ARDMoRE DO 1T?

With one stroke OF the hammer
the Ardmore Chamber Of Commerce
can make deal that will bring a half
dozen big oil we'll supply companies to
this city. With the sane stroke Ard
more can be given connection with the
wonderful asphalt deposits at Wood
ford which will result in building as.
phalt refneries, paint and varnish
factories in this city.
With the same stroke il can add
easily several millions OF wealth TO
Carter county by making practical the
development OF the wonGerful cement
resources Of the county.
This is not a dream. II is a solid
fact. This is not mere wish. It can
be made a reality by proper efforts
being made now.
The oil area Of Carter county is
going to be touched by line of rail-
way.
II that line is built exclusively from
some other point, Ardmore will suffer
as consequence.
II Ardmore builds a line il will get
the patronage, although a line may
also be built from some other point.
There is no need Of any hystericaI
fears. Ardmore occupies a position
that makes Il supremacy fitted to serve
the field and TO capture the tonnage
and passenger traffic.
BY uniting the different forces Of
the city into one harmonious group,
by eliminating self aggrandizement
and selfish interests the city has the |
ingenuity and the wealth TO build the /
line.
There is not moment to lose. The [
Chamber Of Commerce should get its
best brains together and figure out
a proposition which It can meet and
then place that proposition before the
prospective railway builders including
the Santa Fe, which is now surveying
south Of Lindsay.

That Ardmore is making rapid
strides towards the consummation
of the merchants expectations and be-

fest by the report being prepared for

ing the trade extension bureau work
which was inaugurate and carried on,
during the summer months.
One of the local banks handles all
of the rebates and acts as the clear

on the the secretary of the associa-
tion who keeps the records.
1t is from this record that an alb
solute accurate report can be made
and it shows a tremendous increase
covering the past three months.
The most gratifying part of the re-
port being made out is that the trade
territory has been widely extended
and that shoppers as far north as
fifty-two miles have been attracked
to Ardmore. Trade that has hitherto
been conceded to Texas centers is
also coming here. Mr.. Gilbert who is
conducting the advertising campaign
takes the position that there is a GER

leaves all towns and goes to larger
centers and without prejudice to those
towns the efforts being made to pre-
sent Ardmores claims. "If you cannot
get it at your home town and must
go away for it, you can get 1t in
