He Will Appeal Case Against

Ry the Associated Press.

by the Associated Press.
ADA, Okla, February IA. 3. A.
Robertson, former Governor of Okla
homa, stood freed today of charges
that he accepted bribe while in Of
flee to permit an Okmulgee bank to
operate after it had become insolvent.
A demurrer to the indictment
against the former executive which
was returned by a district court
grand jury in Okmulgee March 22 or
last year was sustained in district
court here last night by Special Judge
Hal Johnson of Shawnee.
Rules Act Not Bribery.
Judge Johnson held that the official
acts charged in the indictment were
not within the scope of the official
duties of the governor, and hence
could not be the subject of bribery.
Supervision of state banks and the
depositing of state funds is solely
in the hands of state bank commis-
sioner under the statutes, Judge
Johnson ruled.
Mr. Robertson was charged with
accepting part of $4,000 bribe al
legged to have been paid Fred Dennis,
former state banking commissioners,
to allow the Guaranty State Bank of
Okmulgee to continue business when
1t was known TO pc In 1alllns con :
dition. 1t was also charged that
s150.000 in state funds had been de-
posted in the bank in an effort to
pull it through.
Bondsmen Are Discharged.
Upon sustaining the demurrer,
Judge Johnson exonorated Mr.. Rob-
ertson and discharged his bondsme len.
The court held that the facts stated
IN the indictment could not form the
basis of new Indictment, although
the Indictment was ordered referred
to the county attorney of Okmulgee
county for further action.
Grant Gillespie. newly elected Ok
mulgee county attorney, gave notice
of an appeal to the state criminal
court of appeals.

All round my house the wild winds roar;

Away from all call success,

cellent addition to the city's build
ings.
Winslow lodge was granted it's
charter in 1900, with membership
of 21, including some of the best
known men of Winslow and this coun-
ty. During the first ten years of the
existence Of the lodge it was rather
a difficult task to make both ends
meet The membership was small
the attendance irregular and the in
terest not great. During the past
five years is the period during which
the lodge has grown and prospered.
In 1916 the lodge had 287 members.
Today they have 743, and are third in
size in the state and the largest lodge
from point of membership and Amer
ican population in AZ of the 48 states
in the union. Quite naturally there
is considerable portion of the mem
bership residing outside of the juris-
residing in and around Holbrook
At Holbrook there is an auxiliary
club, called the Antlers, which is res
ponsible for the growth of the Elks
organization in that vicinity to a very
noticeable degree.
Many times the question is asked
What is the purpose of the Elks, why
The Winslow mail., 1923-09-21

The picture shown hereon is the
new Elks Home at Winslow that is
now being erected on West Third
street The building, which will be
fifty-f1ve feet wide and nearly eighty
feet long, is to be constructed of brick
and concrete and when finished will
be the finest building in the town and
one of the finest in this part of the
state. 1t is to be elegantly furnished
throughout, the finishing of the in
terror wood work will all be of hard
wood, oak and maple predominating.
On the first floor there will be
spacious lounging room, which may
also be used by the ladies as card
room on special occasions. There will
be billiard room, and a fine reading
room, with large reception hall. A
music alcove for an orchestra, with
an office for the secretary, complete
the down stairs part of the building.
There will be a porch fourteen feet
wide the entire width of the building,
which in itself is to be very attrac-
tive. On the second floor, there will
be a lodge room, one of the largest
in the state, that can be used for
dancing and public gatherings. 1t is
estimated that it can be made to seat
The Winslow mail., 1923-09-21

seven hundred people for any public
festivity. There will also be ante
rooms, reception hall and property
room on this floor. One of the best
heating plants obtainable has been
purchased insuring adequate and
comfortable heating for the entire
building. The lighting system for the
initiatory services is unique and eff
fective. The building itself has been
amply taken care of with the latest
in electrical features
The contract price of this building
is $33 10000 and the work is being
done by Olds Brothers at Winslow.
1t is estimated that to finish, but not
furnish the building, it will cost about
$36,00000, as there will be electrical
fixtures and other items of that nature
the lodge must provide. The archi-
tects fees will also have to be added
to the contract price.
The architects for the building is
the firm of frost and frost of FL
PasO, one of the largest firms in this
diction of the lodge, but the mailing
list indicates there are 483 members
residing within the jurisdiction of the
lodge, which includes sixty members

due considerable credit for this ex-

pressly for the families of the depart
ed brothers, it is open for everyone,
because an attempt is made at that
service to comfort mankind.
The community welfare work Of
the organization extends to every city
in the land; many movements are fos-
tered that will benefit the community.
Public play grounds are arranged for
the children, orphanages have been
erected, scholarships have been given
to the children of deceased members
and work of the Salvation Army and
similar organization backed with
funds sufficient to enable them to
carry on their good work. In the
larger cities a day is set aside for
the purpose of securing the names of
children who cannot enjoy the fresh
air and open country, then arrange
ments are made to send thousands of
children into the woods under proper
chaperons, with plenty of good food
and clothes to enjoy themselves for
many days. Truly the welfare work
covers a great field.
The ElkS are now erecting in Chi

honor of the boys who gave up their
lives for their country in the late

do they exist? The answer is simple
for a member; their purpose is many
fold. First, you must be an Amer
ican to be an Elk The boys in the
late war many times remarked, that
when they blazed away at some un-
known foe, they had the satisfaction
of knowing their bullet would not
shoot down a Brother Elk. Having
passed the necessary qualifications of
citizenship, an Elk is next taught fell
lOwship toward all mankind, and
spirit of brotherly love is fostered by
the teaching of the organization. An
Elk is taught to assist the children
and widows of fallen brothers to COM
fort them in any manner at his COM
mand, to help the needy, regardless
of their race or creed, for Charity is
the cornerstone of ElkdOm, and
while it is seldom made the subject
of public consideration, the Elks
yearly contribute millions to worthy
charities.
The public exercises of the Elks or
ganization includes the celebration of
Flag day, and annual memorial SER
vices The flag day exercise is one
of the most beautiful ritual ceremo-
nies the public has an opportunity to
see. While the memorial service is ex-

war. This building will cost when
completed five millions of dollars, and
will be one of the finest tributes to
mankind the world has ever seen.
The national headquarters of the
Elks lodge is to be located in this
building.
The Elks magazine which has been
less than a year in circulation is one
of the finest literary efforts of recent
years 1t has circulation of over
million, and besides covering events
of interest of Elkdom also supports
a staff of very able fiction writer's.
The Benevolent and Protective Or
der of Elks of the United States of
America is truly one of the larger
and more important fraternal organ
izations that is fostering the spirit of
Americanism, mutual helpfulness to
all, and a spirit of brotherly love and
closer understanding among it's i'm
mense membership Whoever term
ed this great organization, in Amer
ican slang: "Best People On Earth"
was not far wrong, for when one is
an Elk, one is a much better citizen,
a much better neighbOr and much
better member of the Brotherhood
of man.

NERO SHOW AT Fox's.

The climax Of motion picture prog ress, Is what William Fox calls his superspecial, Nero" which opened at Foxs theater this afternoon. The picture is true to historical data and the characters, Nero, Poppaea, etc., are enacted In way that makes them real. Poppaea, the infamous consort of the tyrant, Nero. is played by Paulette Duval. a French stage star and her portrayal of this his- torical vamp is the acme of finished art. The burning of Rome is the spectacular feature that aroused great enthusiasm. Tho scenes of terror. the wild flight as the inhabi- tants of the doomed city pour, into the streets to escape the threatening flames arc marvelously realistic and on scale of magnitude never before approached.
 With this picture is a four-act the Four Longshoremen. These are male singers who combine to form a perfect quartet. Also, the Wyatt Sisters have a pleasing sketch ( and Walt and Walters are unique enter tainers. Little Dolly Dumplngs and Ginger is q corking juvenile perform er For the last half of the week a stupendous story of the great north will be shown. .,it

Select Circles Aghast at Announces nent That Dukes Daughter
 lar. | Loves Jockey.

London, March 26.--The recent an- nouncement that a daughter of an English duke was to marry a pro- fessional jockey has given London so- ciety a severe shock. even in the face of the fact that aristocracy is not as aristocratic as it was when Queen Victoria ruled the land. The news was probably the chief topic at London's dinner tables for many days. and it will be interesting to sec if the fact affects the popularity of the bride. to-be. @
 She is Lady Ursula Grosvenor. elder daughter of the Duke of Westminster, and she will marry Jack Anthony, one of the well known steeplechase jock eys. Lady Ursula is just 21 years old and has been considered one of the most beautiful and popular girls of the younger set.
 Anthony comes of good family and served as an officer ,n the war. His father is a prosperous Farmer. The young man rode as an amateur for some years before becoming professional.
