Since the death of Bill Chenault, the
noted gambler, at Oklahoma City,
many stories are told of his life. One
of the extreme is that he gave away
. several thousand acres of land left him
to his slaves at the close of the war
Chenault was a handsome dashing man
until one night in Wichita he fell asleep
in the "lookout" chair of a faro table
near a window. Waking, mistaking it
for a door, fell to the stone pavement
and broke both legs below the .knees.

earned years ago—the Newkirk post-

good a man and party worker gets re-

As we understand it, the city of
Thomas is not such a great metropolis;
but the Thomas Tribune is so much
superior to papers printed in larger
towns that in picking it up one always
wonders if he is not mistaken and the
town has some ten thousand inhabi-
tants.
Shawnee merchants are offering
costly premiums for farm products as

From the persistancy with which the

good birth in Washington.

village, World's Fair, St. Louis, at

well.

have seen recently of a citizen being
so overcharged with the great impor-
tance of his wisdom on the negio ques-

what could have been said in that
many lines. A man named S. P. Hen.
der tells Burke, of the Transcript,
that he is one of the best citizens in
town and a "gentleman," but that he
ought to be "tarred and feathered and
ridden out of town" because of his
statement that white men are no
angels either.

"What do you know about the de-
struction of Jersualem?" asked the
teacher at the night school. "It hasn't
been destroyed," responded the young
man who had been visiting relatives in
St. Louis. "It's only gone into the
hands of a receiver. "—Chicago Tri-

she began taking Chamberlain's Stom-
ach and Liver Tablets, and today weighs
more than she ever did before and is
real well," says Mr. Geo. ELWright of

WOMAN HORSETHIEF
ESCAPES JAIL
Mrs. Bertha Morrison who was con-
fined in the Kiowa county jail charged
with stealing a fine team of horses
escaped from the jail this week.
She was bound over to await the
action of the grand jury at he prelimi-
nary trial last week in the sum of
$1,000. She accused two men living
in Hobart of being her accomplices in
the crime, but at the preliminary trial
she denied their having anything to do
with it.
She escaped by aid from the outside
in unlocking the cell. The door was
wide open when the jailer went to feed
the prisoners the next worning. Her
husband is serving a term for a similar
charge. The blood hounds are out of
the county being trained to trail and it
is impossible to get them here in time
to trail her.
TWO GIRLS
WERE ASSAULTED
Jessie Davis and Lorena Orr, 15
years old, were the victims of criminal
assault by two unknown men, Sunday
night at Oklahoma City. The Davis
girl is in a serious condition. They
wese followed from Delmar garden by
the two men, who attacked them in an
isolated place. The deed was done in
almost broad daylight, as the sun was
scarcely down. Physicians have been
in constant attendance upon the victims
all day and at one time it was feared
the Davis girl would not survive.

Austr; lia is the most experimental
of all countries, and is the proving
ground for all the advanced ideas re-
specting the arbitration of labor dis- i
putes, state ownership or control of
public utilities and the ballot. Whether
these experiments succeed or fail in
practice, An3tralia is doing the rest of
the world some service as an object
lesson. A contribution to the current
number of the Nineteenth Century and
After, by a Melbourne woman, on
"The Political Woman in Australia,"
presents an interesting resume of the
progress made in the political emanci-
pation of woman under the most favor-
able circumstances.
The writer rejoices in the fact that
her country has granted her sex abso-
lute political equality with men, and
has thereby reached ' 'a position unique
in the World's history." The Austra-
lian constitution is peculiar in that it
has no sex limitations. The women
enjoy the right to vote equally with
men, may become members of the leg-
islature and hold other offices. It re-
quired about two years to persuade the
Australian women to ask for the fran-
chise; but it finally became their pos-
session, and had a marked influnce
upon the recent federal elections,
when the women voted in as large
numbers proportionately as the men in
most of the constituencies.
The writer notes that the women, as
a rule, voted for the candidates who
stood for economy in public expenditures
and for careful national housekeeping.
To the assertion commonly heard
wherever woman suffrage is urged,
that women will vote as the men de
sire, the writer replies that the elec-
tions showed that the women, on the
whole, voted with indepenence; at any
rate, that they did not vote a straight
or a "machine" ticket as faithfully as
the men did.
"Voting means responsibility, re-
sponsibility means power, and power
commands respect," is her epigramma-
tic answer to the charge that by the ex-
tension of the franchise to woman she
will lose the "chivalrous attention" of
the men. She says that the very can
didates who had previously held that
women would lose the respect of men
by voting were the most assiduous in
courting the women's vote. "The Sir
Walter Raleighs and De Lorges are
thick as leaves in Vallombrosa at elec-
tion time."
The writer herself was a candidate for
the senate of Victoria and was de-
feated, but there were eighteen candi-
dates in the field, and she finds en-
couragement in the returns, which
gave her 51,497 votes, when 85,387
were sufficient to elect. She regards
her vote as a great triumph, obtained
"in spite of the opposition of power-
ful daily papers, and the prejudice
that a pioneer always encounters."
She thinks that full enfranchisement
for women in England must come by
the action of he labor party, through
which woman suffrage has been made
a question of practical politics in Aus-
tralia, instead of remaining, as in
other countries, "the suffrage states
in America excepted." a purely aca-
demic question.
