not find a minister. In his search for
a minister, several young men about
town, one of whom at least, if not
more, had hoped TO marry the widow,
found out about the approaching wed

their own accord they went back with
the old man to attend the wedding.
No preacher being found, the county

ASSOCIATED Press)

Oklahoma City, Okla, Oct. 3--"Sen-
ator Reed got just what was coming

by Governor Robertson. in comment
ing on the action of citizens of Ard

eff it were an /. w. w. going over
the country speaking against the gov
ernment of the United States the re-
publicans would favor giving him the
same treatment as that accorded SEN
ator Reed at Ardmore.
while this is a country of free
speech, this privilege does not give
any person the right to villify the
president and drag his name into the
mire.
Neither Senator Reed or any other
man can come into Oklahoma and
with impunity insult the president of
the United States. / am surprised
that any misguided democrats of the
state have been willing to give time
CROUCH to attend such meetings as

ROMANCE
OF MARION COUNTY

Editor Star: The story Of how a
nan lost his plantation in South Car
olina in a game of poker and moved
to Marion county has already been
told.
With him came a son-in-law who
had two daughters. We might call
his name Latham and his daughters
Leah and Rachel. Anyway, a well to
do planter first married the elder
daughter, who died within couple of
years after their marriage, and there
after married the younger daughter,
who at the time was about fifteen
years of age. Two years later her
husband died, thus combining in the
young widow the fortunes of two
families. In addition to her worldly
goods, she had good looks, and it is
said that at least a half dozen men
were planning to court the widow, as
soon as the period of mourning for her
late husband was over.
The old gentleman who had sue
ceeded in marrying one of his daugh-
ters to the youngest son of the poker
player also had son of proper age to
set married. He was a born match
maker and had made up his mind to
have his son marry the widow. On an
adjoining plantation to that of the
widow, lived planter (there were nc
farms and farmers in those days; al
were planters and plantations(, whC
also had met bereavement in the
death of his wife, and he planned tC
combine the two plantations by mar.
rying the widow. He called occas.
ionally during the first few months
of her widowhood, to advise her as tt
matters pertaining to the farm, anC
such other advice as a neighbor would
be expected give. After about si1
months he noticed that others were
| following his example, dropping t.
have a word with the widow, so ht
concluded that much more delay
might be dangerous. so one after
noon he went over and made an en-
gagement to take her to a picnic a
Silver Springs the next day, intending
to propose on the trip. He went hom,
and put slaves to work getting hi!
carriage in the best of order and tn,
carriage horses properly groomed. II
those days news from one plantation
to another travelled rapidly, and tn,
old gentleman aforesaid learned be
fore night of this state of affairs, am
told his son there must be no furthe
delay; he must go right over afte
supper and propose to the widow. H

AMENDMENTS
KNOCKED OUT
But Opponents of the Treaty Evident
ly Have Votes Enough to
Defeat 1t
(Associated Press) J

Washington, Oct. 3.-The Senate
swept aside in quick succession yes
terday thirty-six of the fQrty-ive
amendments which had been written
into the peace treaty by the foreign
relations committee.
The smallest majority recorded
against any Of the committee propos
ais was fifteen, and the largest was
twenty-eight. All of the amendments
considered had BEEN introduced by
Senator Fall, republican, of New Mex
leo, and were designed to curtail Am
erican participation in European set
Elements resulting from the war.
Of the nine amendments yet to be
acted on, six relate to the Shantung
section, two propose to equalize vot-
ing power in the league of nations
anG one would limit American repre-
sentation on the reparations commits
sion. In the absence of a definite
agreement for disposition of these
proposals, Senate leaders thought last
right that the debate might run on
for several days before another roll
call is taken. Throughout the days
solid front against the amendments
except for Senators Gore of Okla
homa and Thomas of Colorado. Sew
enteen republicans, on the other hand,
lined up against the first committee
proposal to be considered and most of
them stood with the democrats on all
succeeding roll calls. Many of them
announced they were for reservations
which they believed would cover the
same ground without endangering the
treaty.
At adjournment the treaty advo-
Gates declared themselves elated at
the days work and the opposition
leaders also were claiming victory
on the showing made for their amend
ments. They mustered a maximum
strength of thirty-one which with alb
sentees would be sufficient, they de-
clared, to insure the treaty's defeat
unless satisfactory qualifications are
accepted. Thirty-three negative votes
on the final roll CAN, they pointed out
would make impossible the two-third:

Briisher, in Spite Of
Loss Of His Hand, Is
Able to Play Golf

Del Monte, Cal, May 25.-The
possibility of achieving athletic sue
cess even under the handicap of
physical disability is being demon
strated on the golf links here by
Capt. A. Sutton, British army Of
ficer who lost a hand in the great
war.
Always a gold enthusiast and
rated first-class player, Captain
Sutton had forever dismissed from
his mind the possibility of ever be-
ing able to indulge in his favorite
game again. The possibility of, at
least, amusing himself by one
handed putting occurred to the cap
tain. The experiment was success
and he continued to improve in ae-
curacy. incidentally he was strength
ening his remaining hand and arm
by constant use.
1t was not long before he was
trying out some Of the other clubs
and, in the course of a short time
he found himself going through with
his swing quite as he did in the old
days. Today, there is not a club
that Captain Sutton is not able to
manipulate and he is able to 60
out and play round with any of his
friends without asking anything in
the way OF handicap advantage. In
fact he is considered the marvel of
the course, and always attracts a
gallery.
Recently he paired with Jack
Neville, former California state
champion, and defeated another pair
of excellent players. Captain SUIT
toms work on the green was a dis
tinctive feature. In driving ap-
proach shots and putting, he quite
held his own, both in the matter of
distance and accuracy. He has made
a medal score of "a over the course,
which is better than a large ma
jority of the players is able to ac-
eomplsh. He is considering en-
tering a Decoration day tourna-
ment which is to be held here.

Somewhere in Mexico" $4,000 in
gold bullion is buried, it's where
abouts known only to J. A. Mathis,
formerly miner of Plumas county,
north of here, and two companions
who aided in secreting it, Mathis
recently arrived here after All
absence of two years. He is going
back to find the gold, which was
buried because the men valued their
lives more than the precious ore,
the weight of which impeded their
progress when chased by Mexican
bandits.
Describing the fight, Mathis said:
Two of us slept, while the third
stood guard. Before daylight the
guard awakened us to hear the
hoofbeats of approaching horses.
Soon three horsemen rode through
the chapparal and we could dis
tnguish the high, pointed hats of
the bandits. We wasted no time in
challenging but Immediately opened
FIRE. Two of the men fell from
their horses. The third tried to
escape, but he tumbled headlong
before he had gone far.
"We tried to catch the horses,
but without success; so after strip
ping the bodies of all arms and
ammunition, we started again for
the coast. Valuing our lives more
than the heavy bullion just then,
we decided to leave it behind, and
it was buried in the sand and
secret markings noted.

toilsome journey and in a nearly
famished condition"
