Chief of Police Chancellor states
that Saturday was the first day IN
many months when there was not a
'panhandler of some description on the
streets OF Ardmore.
Usually on pleasant Saturday, with
large crowds in town, the streets and
sidewalks are Uttered with persons
who are appealing for help. Oftimes
1t is cripple who may be worthy,
but more often it is cripple who Is
perfectly capable of earning livelihood
by other means, but who finds too
many easy marks over the country at
large, and especially in Ardmore.
Chief Chancellor states that he Is
going to break up the practice of hold
ing street conventions OF any kind on
the busy corners during the fall and
winter rush coincldent to marketing
the cotton crop. The favorte resorts OF
panhandlers and soap box spellbinders
heretofore has been the corners where
Washington and Main street intersect
1t has often been necessary for the
police to break up these gatherings
in order to let people pass upon the
sidewalks. This, the chier says VIII
be a thing of the past, and itineran'
beggars asd orators will have to select
other locations in the future.
These corners are good fields foi

largest here at any hour of the day

an audience.

DILI.ARD NO. | COMES INTO
PRODUCTION SUNDAY MORNING

The second well at Hewitt was
brought in sometime between 3 and u
o'clock Sunday morning. when DiliiIo
No. of the Texas Company in section
27. 4s-2w, reached the pay sand al
.97l feet. The well has been drilled
into the sand only about four feet, and
il flowing on an average of every ~
minutes. The amount the well VIII
produce when drilled in has not been
estimated, but it is the common opinion
that it will come in bigger than the
initial well, which began producing al
2,l07 feet.
The Dillard well is an offset to the
discovery well. and lies 400 feet directly
east. At the present depth the 5S
inch casing Is being set. The well VIII
not be drilled in for two or three days
awaiting tankage, pipe line connection
and other preparatory steps

THE WINDS BLEW AND

All Sunday Afternoon, the clouds

hurrying engines of countless automo-
biles purred on and on. as Ardmores $
oil men rushed to the field to see the
new center of activity, the flowing

Little cared they, these ANXIOUS OIL
men, if the skies wept. And so the
lowering clouds floated threateningly
and unnoticed overhead.
About four o'clock, along a one mile
stretch of the road between Lone
Grove and the bayou, the storms OF
the heavens burst forth in all thelr
fury, and as the autoists described IT,

Question Stirs Toxic

Toxic. Thursday, Aug. 21.-A quiet
but determined struggle now Is unuef
way in Japan between the militarS
and reactionary forces Of the empire
and the liberals over the general ques-
ton of China The bureaucrats insist
that Japan should retain all the spe-
cial preferential rights she has NTH
erto gained in China, and oppose con
cessions urged by groups which seek
to calm world opinion concerning ia
pans alleged aggressiveness.
The diplomatic advisory council yes
terday discussed the Shantung and con-
sortium questions. According to the
newspapers, several members criticiseu
the foreign office for undertaking to
abandon an exclusive japanese settle
ment of the Shantung matter without
consulting the council, which Is sup
posed to advise the government III
such matters.
According to the Asahi. Major-Gen-
eral Tamarka, minister of war, adNo-
Gated the exclusion of Manchuria and
Mongolia from the consortium, even
if that step meant that Japan shoulu
not join the loan group, consisting OF
the United States, Great Britain ana
France, besides this country. He ~
said to have declared it was necessary
to guard japanese preferential rightS
and her privileges of economic emil
grafton for military reasons, incluolhs
national defense. Another member IS
reported to have remarked ironically
that if Japan continued making con
cessions to other powers she would
eventually be obliged to abandon even
Korea"
Considerable attention is paid by the
press to the popularity of Admiral Ba-
ron AIinoru Saito, the new governor
of Korea, and his liberalism, also is
given special prominence, but regrets
are expressed that civilian was not
appointed governor, as the disturbances
in Korea were due to military rule.
At best, the appointment of Admiral
Saito is regarded as a compromise ana
confidence is expressed that he Will
inaugurate extensive reforms.
