 Without a trial to determine the issue of rightful ownership, an Ok lahoma federal judge has entered an order, the effect of which is to dis posses the state of Texas of DOT ton of its public domain, leased for agricultural development, and to dis posses a receiver appointed by a TeXas court and has enjoined peace officers of the state who have been sent by me to preserve order and prevent trespassing. The attorney general of Texas has advised me in a carefully prepared opinion that the order of the Oklahoma court is void and without justification in law.
 Sufficient force has been ordered to hold the territory and surrender none of 1t except upon the decree of the only court having jurisdiction over the boundary lines of states, the Supreme Court of the United States"

the meeting begin announcing what it proposed to do instead of praising vicariously the previous manage ments and admiring the effect on the eastern tourist markets of having a performance here. He said his office consisting of merely a pinch of the population and financial resources of the city, proposed to give this year as much as all the lawyers, doctors and other professional men. gave in 1919. This brought a round of en- thusiasm-the first of the evening.
 Harry Brisley, who has served faithfully on financial committees, proposed that there be no more free will offerings, but that the committee get out and attack the problem as of yore. There were further sugges- tions along this line by Judge Wells. Mir. Norris, Dr. Southworth and others, and it was finally voted that the financial committee hold over; that it make out budget including the 1919 deficit; that 1t honestly and fairly pro-rate this total among the individuals and institutions of the city. and that it go forth and garner the money when and as needed Then, if the coming show produces a profit, as it should, some of the birds who put up their money, will get a piece of it back, thereby ac- quiring a comfortable feeling and a disposition to dig down next season and see the bet and raise it.
 There were Secretary Grace Sparkes and about 75 he-membcrs present, and the Owl admitted that it had served a good dinner, which made everything lovely and satisfac- tory.
 The suggestion that Prescott could possibly fall down on a cele. bration was tacitly rejected by the meeting as too absurd for comment.

Announce ments were made that negotiations toward a settlement have ben opened between the two governmnts at tn instance of President Ebert and his associates.
