DOG HOSPITAL WITHOUT

Howls of Sick Canines Cause Sleepless Nights—Mystery
Veils Dropping of Case in Justice Court Here.

With some people Oklahoma
City's doK hospital in not popular.
Like tbe reputed prophet. It has no
honor In it* own neighborhood,
which If the 100 block on WeHt
Twenty-third «treet. In fact, §0
unpopular is this dog haven that
the citirens of that particular
neighborhood are up in arms.
On the theory that this hospital
is a. public nuisance. it was brought
before the court and partly tried
last Friday. Later, and before
judgment, the case was dismissed
by the plaintiff's counsel without
prejudice. Just why the cane was
dismissed Is not known. No one
see mil able to say.
A. Frele. H P Strother Mary A.
Strother, J. A. Turner and Ruby M.
Turner were the active complain-
ant* In the suit. Their petition al-
leges that the owners. promoters
and conductors of the hospital were
S. r. Espy and e. V. Robnett, the
last named person being the pres-
ent state veterinarian.
The petitioners and their many
witnesses furnished entertainment
for the usual courtroom crowd
present. The women witnesses told
the court that the presence of the
dog hospital in their residence dis-
trict had caused them to almost
have nervous prostration One of
the woman witnesses said that she
had grown so nervous that it was
with difficulty that she did her
housework; that she dropped al-
most everything she picked up.
Men and women witnesses alike
testified that the dogs cooped up In
the hospital howled all the night
long and most of the day—not one
single dog, they said, but a chorus
of from four or five to sometimes
two dozen. It Is a disturbance that
you never get used to, all testified
One of the women witnesses told
the court that It had come to the
point when she was ashamed for
her friends to call upon her and
see the boxes of dogs loaded and
unloaded at the dog hospital. It
was also claimed that particularly
on days when surgical operations
were being carried on at the hos-
pital they frequently had to close
their doors and windows on ac-
count of the foul smells.
The petitioners also claimed that
the hospital building had been
erected without their knowing to
what purpose it was to be put. and
that the permit from the city had
been wrongfully obtained.
Belief In the ill luck attending
May marriages dates back to the
days of ancient Rome.
Parents of Vrana Girl Ask
Damages of $10,000.
Besides being held on a charge
of murder without bond. Joseph F.
Dorsey, who ran down and killed
Lillian Vrana, 8, in Capitol Hill,
two weeks ago. was sued in a civil
action Thursday afternoon by par-
ents of the child, Anton and Anna
Vrana.
The parents asked $10,000 for the
death of their child.
Except as to wording, the peti-
tion in the civil action and Infor-
mation filed by Forrest L. Hughes,
county attorney, are the same. It
1* alleged that Dorsey was reck-
lessly driving at a speed of 35 to
40 miles an hour and was drunk,
and that the accident could have
been averted with proper care on
his part.
As a witness in his own behalf
In the examinatlng trial, he denied
that he was drunk or that he was
driving at an unusual rate of speed.
He said the child ran out into the
street in front of him and stopped,
looking back from the direction she
had come; that Just as he ap-
proached her. she turned and ran
In front of him.

president of the organization, de-
clared in an address Wednesday
night before a large crowd here.
He had nothing further to say
now on the controversy pending.

He explained his stand against

j cause the railroad men suffered no
worse from reduced salaries after
i the war boom than did workers In j

"I do not mean the trainmen are
paid enough. It was not the time
to demand the higher wages. The

a wage equal to the hazards of his

TOBACCO SMOKING SAID
INJURIOUS TO MEMORY
PARIS, Nov. 17.—(United Press.)
Non-smokers beware of smokers.
Your memory may weaken if you In-
hale tobacco fumes. This is the con-
clusion drawn from a series of ex-
periments carried out at the Acad-
emy of Medicine of Nancy by Drs.
Mathieu and Mercklen. Their ex-
1 perimenU were carried out with
! mice which were placed In a glass
case Smoke was lnfiltered and it
I was noticed that the mice then
walked very hesitatingly and seemed
to lose a notion of their where-
abouts.
More men fail through ignorance
of their strength than through
knowledge of their weakness.

The flrat of these la that we find
such h fixity of classes in process
of establishment as no other part
of the world can present. This
fixity of classes Is known to Kuro-
peans as the institution of caste;
Its origins ure still In complete ob-
scurity, but It was certainly well
rooted In the Cannes valley before
the days ot Alexander the Ores'.
It Is a complicated horizontal divi-
sion ot the social structure Into
classes or castes, the members of
which may neither eat nor inter-
marry with persons of a lower caste
under penalty of becoming outcasts,
and who may also "lose aisle" for
various ceremonial negligence* and
defilements. Uy loslnis caBte a man
does not sink to a lower caste; .he
becomes outcast.

The various subdivisions of caste
are very complex; many aro prac-
tically trado organizations. Each

first three of the four original
castes, known also as the "twice
born," were the descendants of the
Vedlc Aryan conquerors of India,'
who established these hard and fast
separations to prevent racial mix-
ing with the conquered Sudras and
Pariahs. The Sudras are repre-
sented as a previous wave of north-
ern conquerors and the Pariahs are
the original Dravldlan inhabitants
of India. But these speculations
are not universally accepted, and

the great teacher of Buddhism, pro-
claiming: "As the four streams that

mins, Kshatrtvas, Vaisyas and Su-

In Bengal the Kahatrlyas and Vias-

Next to this extraordinary fission

we have to note that the Brah-
mins, the priests and teachers of
Indian life by the vitality and per
slstence of the Brahmins and of
their caste Ideas.
The Chinese System.
In China we find a social system
traveling along yet another, and
only a *<ery roughly parallel, line to
that followed by the Indian and
Western civilization. The Chinese
mlns, the priests ami leacners 01 wusitvu nnutdinM.,

be little doubt of the role played
Uy the Brahmins ua the custodians
of tradition and the only teachers
of tho people In sustaining It.
How Did It Arise I
By some it li* supposed that tho
mins. the manaaiins, who are the
literate men of China, are not a
caste; ono Is not a mandarin by
birth, but by education; they are
drawn by education and examina-
tion from all clusses of tiio com-
Jmunlty, and the son of a mandarin
lias no prescriptive right to huc-
ceed his father.
As a consequence of these differ-
ences. while the Brahmins of In-
dia are, as a class, ignorant even of
their own sacred books, mentally
alack, and full of pretentious as-
surance, the Chinese mandarin has
the energy thnt comes from hard
mental work. But since his educa-
tion so far has been almost entirely
a scholarly study of the classical
Chinese literature, his influence has
been entirely conservative. Before
the days of Alexander the Great,
China had already formed Itself
and Bet Its feet In the way In which
It was still walking in the year 1000
A. I). Invaders and dynasties had
come and gone, but the routine of
life of the yellow civilization ro-«
malned unchanged.
The traditional Chinese social
'system recognized four main
classes below tho priest-emperor.
1 (a) The literary class, which was
equivalent partly to the officials of
the western world and partly to its
teachers and clerics. In the time of
Confucius Its education included
archery and horsemanship. Kites
and music, history and mathematics
completed the "six accomplish-
ments."
(b) The cultivators of the land.
(c) The artisans.
(d) The mercantile class.
But since from the earliest times
It has been the Chinese way to di-
vide the landed possessions of a
man among all his sons, there has
nevor been in Chinese history any
class of great landowners renting
their land to tenants, such as most
other countries have displayed. The
Chinese land has always been cut
into small holdings. whWh are
chiefly freeholds, and cultivated in-
tensively.
The I.ast Man I.oses.
There are landlords In China who
own one or a few farms and rent
them to tenants, but there are no
great permanent estates. When a
patch of land by repeated division
Is too small to sustain a man, It Is
sold to some prospering neighbor
and the former owner drifts to one
of the great towns of China to join
the mass of wage earning workers
there. In China for many centuries
there have been these masses of
town population with scarcely any
property at all. men neither serfs
nor slaves, but held to their daily
work by their utter impecunioua-
Krom such masses it Is that the
soldiers needed by the Chinese gov-
ernment are recruited, and also
such gang labor as has been needed
for the making of canals, the build-
ing of walls and the like has been
drawn The war captives and the
slave class play a smaller part in
Chireae history than In any more
westerly record of these ages before
the Christian era.

JUSTICE SPEEDS
WITH MITCHELL
Sent To Prison Two Days
After Arrest.
Justice "stepped on the gas" in

L It. Higgins were arrested the fol-
lowing morning at Sapulpa. They

, and plead guilty. Thursday after-
noon he was taken before Judge

plea of guilty and sentenced to
three years in the penitentiary.
Hatchell exhonorated Higgins at
the time of their arrest in Sapulpa.
He said he robbed the store alone,
and met with Higgins enroute
north. Higgins was found to have
almost two hundred of the pennies,
taken from the Jones store till,
and the men explained this by say-
ing that Higgins was broke and

guilty and he entered the same plea
I when arraigned before Judge Clark.
