Ku KIux Khan Gets
Rap From City Fathers

The Ku Klux Khan was given a
rap at the meeting of the Commission
Council Tuesday evening but in or
der to get action it was necessary for
Mayor Sullivan to pass the gaven of
authority over to Commissioner of
Finance Cassidy.
An ordinance prohibiting the wear
ing of masks or parades Of maskers,
with certain EXCEPTIONS was intro
duced. Mayor Sullivan explained that
Governor Parker urged such ordi-
nances be passed in every city in the
state.
No commissioner offered to intro
duce the ordinance and finally Mr..
Sullivan resigned from the chair and
introduced the ordinance himself,
which was unanimously passed. This
is the first time in the history of the
city that such action was necessary
to get an ordinance introduced.
The ordinance gives a minimum
fine of 500 and so days in Jail for
its violation. The ordinance was
made an emergency ordinance and be-
comes law today.

DEPETE
OYSTER CROP 1900

The oyster crop of the United
States suffered severe setback on
Thursday evening when eighty Lee
gionaires met at the Armory at a get
together party and disposed of 1900
of the bivalves without any sort of
trouble. Made doubly delicious by
the addition of the necessary sauces,
pickles, cheese and bread and washed
down with neutrality-suspicious.,
the supper was a success from start
to finish.
Commander ]. H. Friend intro
duced J. B. Lindsey as POSTMASTER
and Mr.. Lindsey called on sundry
speakers for talks they had been told
to prepare, but had not. The meeting
was an informal one and anything
went.
Credit for the success of the sup
per is largely due to Ralph Henry,
under whose direction the food was
prepared and the ArmOry made ready
for the affair. Herman Raley and
Lawrence Davis assisted Mr.. Henry
in the work

l do not remember just when awoke to the fact that my wife was intensely selfish-that she wanted even my every thought for herself.
 This I could not give her, for always there has been within me something that I like to feel is my very own. I sometimes think that my frivolities have been sweeter because only have known of them. I never have been the kind of a man who likes to tell of what he calls his con- quests.
 The women who have interested me have all been, with two excep- tions, more interesting when thought Of them than when I was with them.
 In spite of her protestations of love for me; In spite of her protesta- tions of her contempt for money, I found that my wife cared much more for herself than anything else in the world and that she wanted money more than she wanted any other thing.
 When the first flush of love was growing grey she began to tell me that she was sure I was now well enough to return to the north.
 She would say "One of the req sons. Harry. that you are not getting we'll faster is because you have noth- ing to take up your thoughts.
 T have you, dearest" I would in- variably reply
 That's not enough for a man. He needs an absorbing business" she

year with which to feed these cattle when brought In to the farm at Kaul- ton.
 Two hundred full blood and grade Angora goats are kept on the ranch. Numbers of these are shipped to diff ferent parts of the country each year and sold to farmers for breeding pur- poses. A flock of sheep are also be- ing grazed on these cut-over lands, with the idea of determining the profit to be obtained by sheep raising in this section.
 Feed Crops
 This year 100 acres are planted to corn and velvet beans which will be fed to the cattle and hogs. Sixty acres of oats were harvested In late May and this same land Is covered with A good crop of cowpeas. which will be harvested for hay. Twenty acres are in sudan grass, which has proven to be an excellent hay crop for this section. Twenty acres or more were seeded to rye In the winter, on which pigs were grazed. A pasture of 100 acres is covered with bermuda grass. carpet grass and lespedeza clover,
 Sweet Potatoes
 Sweet potatoes have proven to be such a good crop that 12 acres have been planted. Part of these potatoes will be stored In a storage house, built by plans outlined by the United States department of agriculture. and the unmarketable potatoes will be fed to the hogs Special mention should be made of the fine field of sorghum that Is raised each year with which to fill the silo.
 This farm Is equipped with modern barns for cattle, horses and hogs; also modern farm machinery.

RAUL LUMBER CO.
 ALSO ENGAGED IN
 FARM OPERATIONS
Hogs, Cattle and Goats Are SpeClalties--Conducted on the Most Modern and Ap-
 proved Methods

Tuscaloosa. July 4-(Special.)- Raul Lumber company. one of the largest lumber concerns in Alabama, operating mills at Tuscaloosa and reaching into virgin fields of timber with new railroad line 1s miles long, which was completed last year, Is also extensively engaged in tho raising of live stock and agricultural products on its cutover lands.
 The live stock and farming end of the Raul companys operations are conducted on the same business prin- ciples as the lumber business. The farm and ranch are In charge of George A. Peters, a native of Mary land and graduate of that states agricultural college. The farm is a member of the Tuscaloosa county farm bureau. For the first time since the farm was started, cotton was planted this year on 70 acres.
 These farming operations are con ducted on $50 acres of land at Kaul- ton and 10000 acres of cutover graz Ing lands in Hale county. Live stock is the main objective and hogs are speciality.
 The Tuscaloosa News and Times Gazette presents some of the inter esting details of operation and mar keting as follows:
 Raises Hampshire Hogs
 Thirty pure bred Hampshire sows are kept and this spring from this number 180 pigs were raised. The same number were raised as a fall litter. Each year two filters of pigs are raised.
 Last year 100 of these pigs were sold for breeding purposes. and were shipped to farmers in the following states: Alabama. Mississippi, Ten nessee, Georgia, Florida and North Carolina. All hogs not sold are kept for breeding purposes or kept until they weigh 165 pounds or over and then shipped to the packing compa- nies or sold through the market of the Kaulton store. This month car load of fat hogs. weighing something over POO pounds each, will be shipped to the packers. Much stress Is laid on the raising or the hOBs TOT sum mer shipments because at this time they always bring exceptionally high prices.
 Herd of Hcrefords
 Crops are raised especially for the hogs and if one should visit this farm they would find hog barns, individual hog houses, dipping vats, and other up-to date hog conveniences. Last year some very fine hogs were shown at the county fair and this fall they are expecting to show larger num- Der and better display in general.
 Next in importance is the 800 head of cattle kept on the ranch in the summer to graze and then brought to the Kaulton farm in the winter. These are pure bred and grade Hereford cat tic. Last year 100 head were fed out and sold for beef. One hundred and fifty tons of ensilage ia stored each

 I've never been absorbed in bust ness in my life, honey" was my set answer.
 But you will be now" she urged and so the trouble began brewing and Eros left us.
 I quickly learned she wanted all of me and every penny l could earn, beg. borrow or steal. for herself
 thought because she had been earning her own living before I mar ried her, that she would know at least the rudiments of economy-she would know how hard 1t is to earn money-but she seemed only to have learned how easy 1t was to spend s I found out that she was simply tired of looking out for herself and that she expected-when she married that the entire job of earning our living would be turned over to me.
 She did not like housekeeping. She did not know how to sew. She threw up her hands in horror at the thought of having children. She had a great idea of the privileges of wife but no conception of the duties.
 As you know, Jim. she dances beautifully. plays excellent bridge. dresses in splendid taste, on little or much. and spends all my money most profitably-on herself.
 I've always loved peace before anything else. and did and still do my best to keep peace with her.
 Fortunately. as my little hoard rapidly dwindled away my health inn proved, and although the doctor said 1t would be better for me If I stayed south for another winter. decided I would chance it. We cane north and I again took up my work of editing, ths time in small west ern city.
 Here I found my salary was ridiculously inadequate to cover the expenses of beautiful, selfish, lazy wife. I often thought of the jokesLe- who said:
 Women are like elephants. like to look at 'em but I'd hate to own one"
 found out early that she was of the most jealous disposition. She was not only jealous of every wonl- an to whom, l spoke but she seemed to hate all my men friends. You will bear me out in this. Jim, for you will remember now you said to me when I upbraided you for not com think, Harry, that your wife likes me. She looked daggers the other night when 1 asked you when you were coming around to the club"
 Her attitude toward you was typical of her attitude toward all my men friends.
 She never put herself out to enter tain anyone and apart from the men the two women who had been the most devoted to me who were .ne best pals I had, in the little town where we resided, she would not ask to our house.

FORT WORTH, Tex. June 2s.-An
that was mortal Of Samuel Burk
Burnett, plainsman, pioneer and good
citizen, reposed last night on bed
in his palatial mansion. About the
bed sat q dozen of his old compan-
ions, men like himself. who had made
the southwest great. There was
seated there some. who, like the
! dead, were millionaires. others
were wagon bosses. cowboys. ranch
hands-men who knew and loved the
old man and who. until the dawn had
dissipated the clouds of night. talked
over the old days of the trait. when
their friend was one Of the most
powerful factors in the entire cattle
country.
1t was the deathbed request Of OLD

for the funeral. He wanted to stay
with "the boys" as long as possipie.

his fortune at a most critical period.
all were discussed The dead suInsa man
and when one tired of reciting his
praises another would begin.
1t was in the days when the ranch
ers Of the southwest were saces caught Pc Pc,
Texas ranges and fhe menace of the
Oklahoma Indians that Burk Burnett
was chosen to intercede with Chief
Geronimo of the tribe.
SO we'll did he succeed that thou
sands upon thousands of pasture
at 6h cents an acre and the cattle
industry was saved. That was thirty
years ago. The government ratified
the agreement and 1t held good until
the "hig pasture" of Oklahoma was
cut into farms and the Indians went
west The friendship then initiated
between the cowman and the Indian
chief lasted to the end, and when
Geronimo died he bequeathed his ia
vorite totem pole to the Texas white
man.
A few years after the death Of the
chief Burnett was ordered from
Washington to withdraw his cattle
from the reservation at once. To
obey spelled ruin. So he went in
person to the capital and obtained an
Interview with President Roosevelt.
The latter granted a six-month ex-
tension, and another friendship was
initiated to last until the death of
Col. Roosevelt. Later President
Roosevelt came west to hunt wolves
with Burnett.
Record ~ Cowboy.
Burnett was the youngest man who
ever handled a big herd over the old
Chisholm trail leading from the Tex
as ranges to the railroad in Kansas.
On one Of these trips his spare horses
were stolen by Indians. and rather
than kill his COW ponies Burnett and
his men herded their cattle on foot
from Oklahoma to Abilene. Kan.
On another occasion he had driven
his cattle to Kansas City. Finding
