Lightning Crseps Into Power Plant Over
Street Railway Line and Plays Havoc
With Machinery

One Of the worst If not the most de
structive electrical storms which has
visited Chickasha since electric lines
we're distributed over the city was the
estimation set on yesterdays storm by
the management OF the Chickasha Gas
and Electric Co. Lightning which com
pletely disabled for several hours, the
big power engine furnishing current
for the city, ran into the power house
over the Chickasha Street railway
line, firing the boards and doing great
damage to the plants equipment. One
of the street railway machines at the
power house was disabled by the light
ming. Besides the havoc wrought at
the plant. wires we're down practical
ly all over the city yesterday afternoon
and poles were broken off in many pla-
ces. Crews Of line men were rushed
to the tangled wires and worked into
the night remedying the damage. This
morning lights over the city were
again in order and except for few
bur ned out fuses, the service was re-
stored to its original efficiency

been called from Dallas Texas, and

No Steps in Mobilization
Til District Board Reports

Mr. Murray that the papers sent in
from this district were the first receiv-
ed and in the best form of any submit
ted by the twenty-five counties under
the Tulsa division. Reasoning by this,
the local board should get first atten-
tion when final exemption notices are
issued. In the meantime, though suffi-
cient names are listed in the northern
Grady district to furnish the entire
167 quota Mr.. Murray does not think
it fair to call men easily accessible
who have entered no excuse before reg
istrants whose claims may be rejected
By the district exempters.
Until further information is given
out, Mr. Murray believes Fort Sam

greater, as the war progresses; and It
is to provide for this great demand

Senator 7. P. Gore,

The people OF Oklahoma stand SOL
Idly with the President and Con-

WILSONSAYS POPE'S PEACE PROPOSALS
DO NOT TOUCH FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES
By United Press.

Washington, Aug. 22.-President
Wilson today turned his attention to
the framing Of a reply to the pope's
peace appeal. He will probably have
a tentative draft OF the reply ready to
submit to the consideration Of the cab
met at its meeting on Friday.
The speech of German Chancellor
Michaelis yesterday will have no ef-
feet on President Wilson's reply.
That the proposals do not touch the
fundamental principles for which
America is fighting will be the basis
of the reply.
Pacitists Denounced.
The first formal utterance from a
member of Che presidents cabinet
since the receipt of Pope Benedict's
peace proposals came today in scath-
ing denunciatioh of peace movements
which have been launched in this
country
Secretary Of Commerce Redfield in a
letter declared that German military
autocracy must Be destroyed. He de-
clared that this autocracy was now
on the edge Of great disaster and de-
nounced the pacifists for any peace
plans proposed at this time.
