F. T. Cook, republican member of
the council from the Seventh ward. 1m
about to begin a war In city council
regarding the passage of bills and |
claims, without the items being read
off, as has been the custom. The
council leaders are said to be prepar j
ing to pass bills and claims In onr
"batch"
At the last two meetings a motion
was made to have the bills and the
claims passed by the council without
being read provided they are approved
by the members of those who pass
upon them
For Instance a claim for refund on
water rent, would go to the water
committee, and if It was approved
by the committee, It would be put
with other claims already approved
by other committees, and the whole
batch of claim* would be passed up
on by one motion.
T*st week It. was attempted, but
after a speech by Cook the motion
was defeated It Is understood an
ordinance will he presented Monday,
which will make this a rule of coun-
cil.
"I am certainly going to tight the
passage of this ordinance, if It Is
brought up at the next meeting," said
Cook today. "I believe In everything
balai done on the square. ! dost
think this way of passing bills and
claims would he fair for the reason
that tho papers could not tell what
was in these bills, and therefore the
people would never know what was
passed, and what was not.
"If one committee approves a eer
tain bill or a claim and It goes
through in a lump with other bills,
how would the rest of the council
know what they were paying. Some
person might come before the commit-
tee on claims with a claim that may
seem Just to the members of that coin-
I mlttee and might not seem just to the
rest of the council. It would go
through and something might come
up later and we would find that we
had passed a claim that was abso-
lutely Illegal and we would be liable."
A fair Sunday is promised by the
weather man for Oklahoma City and
vicinity For the state the promise is
for partly cloudy weather, with high-
er temperature except in the south-
ern portion of the state, where the
cooler temperature will continue.
Nobody is fussing around much
about the weather these days, which
is a comfort both to the fusser and
the fussee.
Durant got the only heavy rain yes-
terday in Oklahoma, but in many
points throughout the (southern
states rain fell to a depth of from
one to two-and-a-quarter inches. Maxi-
mum temperature in Oklahoma have
ranged from 85 to 90 with minimum
from S3 to 70.

HELP CHORUS GIRLS
WOMAN SOCIALIST
TO SPEAK SUNDAY
New York. Aug. 20.—Ever since the
time of W. Shakespeare , who was
some on choruses, there has been an
effort to make the life of the chorus
girl happy. From dressing the stage,
next to the room where the musicians
in the orchestra tuned their Addles,
to having a room set aside for them
for the reception of flowers, diamond
bracelets and deeds for houses on
Riverside Drive, the chorus girl has

All this came out when William J.

I Margaret Easton, of No. 49 Schermer-

Blake was arrested for swindling a
man out of money by selling to him
territory for a patent window fasten-
er which Blake did not control. Mrs.
Kastman, with whom he boarded, al-
so lost on the proposition.
Yesterday It developed that the I
money the widow lost was really In-
tended for the uplift of the chorus I
girls.

the widow Blake, after a show, took
her to a lobster palace. There she

STORES WILL EXPAND

"I think that a new era has begun
in this matter of the occupancy of
the second and third floors of the old
style two and three-story buildings
in the down-town district," said J.
H. Johnston at the Chamber of Com-
merce today. "These buildings are
being vacated as offices, and the of-
fice men are moving into the modern
sky-scraper office buildings.
The second and third floors will
soon be occupied by lines of retail
business, mostly by the stores that
occupy the ground floors. They will
expand to Include the upper floors,

1 he Muff of Roses.—The ancient
axiom with regard to a woman's toi-
lette, "Bleu grantee bien chaussee,"
has practically ceased to hold good.
Parisian women no longer believe In
the necessity of covering their hands.
Outdoor life, tennis, golf, rowing and
motoring have given the sun tan of
health to hands wont to be fragile
and fashionable women rather like It.
For afternoon functions, for the the-
ater, and for such occasions as wed-
dings, the muff of roses Is carried.
These new muffs are as large as the
pillows of fur used during the winter,
They are a charming addition to the
toilette, and their perfume has made
theaters, concert and election halls
fragrant. Individual taste dictates
the selection of the roses used.
One lady recently carried a pillow
of deep red blooms, some of them al
most black in their intensity. In the
center a large white rose nestled.
Olowlng pink blossoms are often used,
such a variety as the La France being
in high favor. Muffs of white roses,
of Gloires de Dijon, of any variety, in
fact, are freely used. They are mere-
ly slung on the left arm, the hand
stuck through. Sometimes both
hands are concealed amongst the
roses and take on their perfume. The
fashion is a little extravagant even In
France, where the queen of flowers is
easily found, for the life of the muff
is reckoned to be six hours, except In
cases of extreme heat, when the flow-
ers must be more frequently renewed.
More About Freckles.—'Now that
we may reasonably begin to expect
some warm weather, a further word
about sunburn and freckles may be
advisable. Many girls dread the dls
, figuring marks of freckles, which in-
: deed mar a pretty complexion some
times to an alarming extent. Those
who are prone to this trouble should
take care to shade the face with a
large hat or parasol, and constantly
dab the skin with a lotion made of
one teaspoon of simple tincture of
benzoin In half a pint of rose water,
and eau de cologne two drachms;
mix and apply with a clean piece of
linen night and morning.
A simple lotion for sunburn Is euqal
quantities of lemon Juice, rose water
and rectified spirit: mix well, leave
for 24 hours, strain off through clean
muslin and apply to the face and
hands.

Alton Aug. 20.—The corn cob pipes
and the cuspidors In the office of The
Alton Telegraph had a vacation yes-
terday, while the regular staff went
fishing, and the newspaper was got
out by a corps of women from the
PPer Alton Improvement Associa-

I here were women everywhere—In
the editor's room, grinding* out heavy
leaders;" in the local room, doing the
news of the town; women giving di-
rections to an unwontedly civil com-
posing room, even soliciting ads, and
getting them, too.
Ihe women did everything connect-
ed with the day s edition except to
sell the papers on the streets, and
'^regular force of boys, returning
with puzzled faces to The Telegraph
office, asked what was making them
go so fast. The paper had few black
headlines, with little sensational news
and the boys could not understand the
abnormal demand.
One scoop was "pulled" during the
day—the announcement of the mar-
riage of Mrs Achaza Neff of Upper
