DOSE Of POISON
NEAR FATAL SAY
LOCAL DOCTORS
Quick Work Saves Life OF Lloyd
WindIe, Ninnekah Man; Found
in Critical Condition.;
No Cause Given

Lloy Windle, young man of Mime
kah, who Is believed to have at
tempted suicide here late yesterday
afternoon, probably owes his life to
Carl Jaggers, soda dispenser employ
ed by the Damel confectionery.
Found in a critical condition, the
young man was rushed to the office
OF DIR. II. c. Antle and thence to a
local hospital where his life was
saved by the use of stomach pump
and the administration of an anti
dote. He left the hospital last night
about 10 O'clock
Jasgers Notifies Officers.
Shortly before he was rushed to the
hospital, Windle is said to have sent
bottle containing about one dram
of strydanine to Jaggers by friend.
Windle soon appeared in the confec-
tionery and, with a handshake, bade
Jaggers goodbye.
Suspecting the man to be in an
abnormal condition, Jaggers followed
him down the street where Windle is
alleged to have told him that he
had taken the poison. Officers were
Immediately notified, help procured
and the man taken to the office of
Dr. Antle, from which place he was
removed to the Chickasha hospital
When Harley Parrish, assistant
chief of police, and Patrolman
Claude Baird reached the man, he
was unable to talk. After being taken
to the hospital, the man was relieved
with only a few convulsions. He ar
rived at the hospital about 20 min
utes after the poison had been
taken, according to DR.. d. S. Downey.
Without treatment the man would
have died 80 minutes later, DR..
Downey believes.
Taken In Capsule.
Windle said the strychnine was
taken in capsule, which, according
to DR.. Downey, prevented the poison
from taking effect sooner.
Asked why he took the poison, the
man refused to answer the ques-
tion
A young lady Of Ninnekah appeared
at the hospital in the evening and
asked to see Windle. She told DR..
Downey that several months ago she
had taken poison but was saved by
medical aid. 81 tried to talk him out
of the notion" she said.
Carl Jaggers, the young man who
gave the alarm and probably saved
Windle's life. is a warm friend Of
the man, whose age is given at 26.
They worked together in an oil field
more than a year ago.
Windle is a member of a promi-
nent family in Ninnekah and has a
brother who is engaged in school
teaching.

Chamber of Commerce Takes up
Proposition Of Getting Local
oss comsany TO Build
Connecting Lines
THINK OKLA. NATURAL
MIGHT BE FAVORABLE
Plans Are Now Under fdvisement
Would Mean Expenditure Of
Much Cash; Company
Consider Program

Relative TO the natural gas stu
alton In Chickasha. Il was stated at
the Chamber Of Commerce offices
this morning that efforts are being
made to work out plan whereby
the Calckaaha Gas and Electric
company can build Il line connect.
Ing the companys distributing lines
in the city with the main OF the
Oklahoma Natural Gas company
some three or four miles south Of
Chlckasha.
The matter has been taken up
with the head offices Of the local
company and II Is understood that
IL IS being fayorably considered.
under certain conditions II is
pointed out that an outlay OF some
100000 TO $4,000 would be neces-
sary to build the connecting line
ana il Is tie general idea that II
the Oklahoma Natural should be
relieved OF the outlay of that much
money they would consider more
fayorably the attaching OF Chickasha
TO the natural gas line. In other
words. It Is the belief that II the
Chickasha Gas and Electric COM
pany would build the connecting
line, satisfactory arrangements
could be made with the Oklahoma
Natural for connecting Chickasha
with the mains to the Duncan, Wal
ters and Cement fields.
The members of the corporation
commission, il was stated, have
viewed the proposition favorably
considering the fact that there Is at
this time an abundant supply of gas |
due to the big wells brought in at
Duncan and surrounding territory
While no definite proposition has
been made by or to the chickasla |
Gas and Electric company for the |
building Of the connecting line and !
the distributing Of gas in Chieka sha.
it was stated this morning, that
work is being done .on the proposl-
tion.
Tho position of the Chickasha Gas
and Electric company is understood
to be that before they would be
justified in arranging to spend the
amount necessary to build the con
meeting line. they would be forced |
to have assurance that the Oklahoma
Natural would make the connection,
once the connecting line was built.
It was pointed out, also, that it
would be necessary for the Chick
asha company TO secure a natural
gas Franchise from the city of
Chickasha, owing to the fact that
their present franchise covers only
the distribution of artificial gas.
While all arrangements and plans
are entirely in a tentative form at
this time, there are indications that
work is being done on the PROPOSE
tion to furnish Chckasha with natur
al gas.
Business propositions of this mag
nitude cannot be worked out in a
day" said F. D. Schaffer manager
of the Chickasha Gas and Electric
company today.
ut is going to take time. Anyone
who has the idea that we are to
have natural gas in 30 days, has the
wrong impression. 1t is possible
that the tentative plans will result in
getting gas here, but Chickasha
must not expect 1t too soon."

OUTLINES RULES
TORETAIN YOUTH
Life's Supply Unlimited, Gaze
Tells Hearers at
Polls.

In his lecture at Polls Theater
last evening on How Constructive
Psychology Enables You to Attain
Eternal Youth" Harry Gaze said in
part:
1T is scientifically possible to at
tain eternal youth. The great vital
essential is conscious or individual
evolution. One must build and re-
build the body, and build a better
body with each succeeding rebuild
ing. The fact that the body Is built
upon a system of changing units,
of which cells. molecules, atoms
and electrons are examples, affords
the opportunity. The creative power
OF the mind enables US to impress
the cells with the qualities we de-
sire, such as health. strength and
youth. There are three rules that
will help in actual practice of grow
ing and staying young:
First. Realize that by virtue Of
continual molecular renewal your
body is made new. Live in the
thought of this newness instead of
age.
Second. Initiate new cycles of de-
velopment instead of settling down
to middle age or old age. Suggest
to your subconscious mind new
powers for unfoldment.
Third. Realize that you derive
your Hfe, energy and intelligence
from the Infinite Source and not
from a limited supply"

RED MAN DENIED

SAYS SLECTURER
White Daughter of Tribe
Says Guardians Miss
Contact.

The United States government has
missed the proper contact with the
American Indian, Helen Fitzgerald,
author and theosophicai lecturer,
told members of the National Pen
League and International Literary
Association. yesterday afternoon.
Miss Fitzgerald. Californian
who was adopted by the Blackfeet
Indians, and who has made a study
of their tribal lore. was the speaker

suffering and hardship are often
entaIled by the burdensome red
tape with which the government
has surrounded the administration

Fitzgerald.
Contact Incomplete.
Although I do not wish to criti-

Affairs" said Miss Fitzgerald, 4
believe that we have missed the
proper contact with the Indian in
our dealings with him"
There 10 little opportunity for the
first Americans to assimllate with
other Americans, the lecturer point
ed out. The professions are prac-
tically closed to them.
Put an Indian graduate of Car
Isle or one of the other schools
here in Washington, or in New
York and what opportunity would
he have in any Of the professions?
she asked.
Denies Reversion.
Miss Fitzgerald denied the allie
CATION that the educated Indian
often "reverts TO the blanket" On
the contrary, she pointed out, those
who have been trained outside the
reservations bring back whatever
they have learned Of civilized ways
and exert an influence for good
among their people.
The American Indian is highly
psychic, approaching the Hindu In
his appreciation Of the value Of
meditation, fasting and the de-
velopment OF latent occult powers.
His ceremonial dances are charged
with symbolism and are interpreta-
tive of the spiritual ideals of his
race. Miss Fitzgerald said, in out
lining some of the neurological and
religious conceptions Of the Black
feet.
In the course of her talk the
speaker gave a graphic account of
the Ghost Dance" movement or
the spiritual awakening among the
Indians when they supposed their
Messiah had come which led to the
massacre of Wounded Knee" in
December. 1890.
