TWYFORD WILL TRY
TO DISMISS SUITS
City Attorney Twyford stated yes-
terday, that he would ask the super-
ior court Monday to dissolve the re-
straining orders issued in the injunc-
tion suits to prevent the awarding
of contracts for the proposed water
distribution system and paving In
Capitol Hill. The suits were filed
Friday in the superior court, and will
be heard by Superior Judge Old-
field on May 13. In the meantime
the city is enjoined from undertak-
ing any of the work compiained of.
The restraining order was itot
served on City Clerk Parman until
yesterday, and the Western Paving
company, which was awarded the con-
tract to pave one street In Capitol
Hill, had already had Its contract
signed by the clerk and ma) or. The
Cleveland-Trinidad company, which
secured the bulk of the work In Cap-
itol Hill, did not present its con-
tracts, and consequently can not se-
cure signatures of the city officials
until the injunction suit is disposed
of.
'KING' OFTOWN GOES
INTO A SANITARIUM
Washington, April 29.—C. B. Ash-
burner, who for many years has oc-
cupied the unique office of "business
manager" of the city of Staunton, is
now here in a sanatorium.
Mr. Ash burner* has occupied a
place unique in the history of the
land. The citizens of Staunton con-
fided to him the sole power to con-
duct the municipal government, ac-
cording to his own judgment, as its
business manager, just as he would
oonduct a business house.
It was the duty/of Mr. Ashburner
to hire and "fire" all city employes.
Except for an occasional ratification
of his actions by a so-called city
council, his actions were not re-
viewed.
"A strain such as this," he said
today, "is more than any one human
being can stand."
Added to the strain was the eternal
nagging of offlceseekers. Being in a
position to grant favors, there was
never a time in his administration
when he was not harassed by those
with an axe to grind.
The system which was begun un-
der Mr. Ashburner lias been pushed
to a great success through his un-
tiring efforts.

some one besides their own pretty
little selves, never be lasy, or dull,
or selfish or unkind or careless, tney'd

Careless, selfish—of course she is;
all girls are till someone makes them
be something else.
My hair, my figure, my eyes, my
brain, my walk, my individuality—
that's all that she thinks of, dear, lit-
tle, sweet sixteen. That's why she
needs a mother or a maiden aunt, or
a grandmother, or someone to keep
after her and beat some sense of pro-
portion into her charming little head.
The world's brand new, it seems—
brand new and shining, and all hers,
every bit hers.
And it's no such old fogy world
to her as it looks to you, either. It's
romantic and full of exciting things,
and so delightful and so fascinating
that she just can't stop thinking
about it and go and dust the parlor,

SCIENCE AND THE
COMING RACE
By ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.
(Copyright, 1911.)
Whatever may be your Idea
science today, it will be strengthened
or changed materially in the next ten
years.
lf you think the scientific world Is
wasting its time in foolish experi-
ments, and In vague, Impractical ideas;
if' you think It is blasphemously con
tradlcting Genesis about the Creation
of the Universe, and that It has no
proofs of what it says, then you wi'l
hango your mind.
But If you think that science Is on
the road to great and wonderful dis-
coveries, which will astonish the world,
then you will increase your ideas, and
your faith In what it will do, before
another decade.
Scientific men are mere blind run-
ners now; but they are running iu
the right direction, most of them! and
suddenly they will receive their sight,
and will know where lies the goal.
Already science has PROVEN to all,
save the Ignorant minds that refuse to
read and understand, the vast age of
the earth. Having proven that this
world has existed millions of years,
it will find it difficult to indicate a
time when It did not exist; and still
more difficult to state a time when it
wiil cease ic exist; and finally the
proof will be found—proof absolute an-.l
open to all—of the continuance of
LIFE In other realms adjacent, if in-
visible to ours.

Stars, unseen by the naked eye, afe

state of perfection and nicety that it
will photograph planefl and beings not

delightfully entertained with a fare-
well party for Mrs. C. D. Hereford,
who will leave soon for her future
home in Wes Virginia. The floral
decorations, yellow and white, were
prettily carriod out in the luncheon
served. A guessing contest was a
pleasing feature. Mrs. J. Williams
was awarded the prize. The honor

One of the prettiest social events
of the week, was the tea given by-
Mrs. Gus A. Elbow and Mrs. Russell
G. Lowe at the home of Mrs. Elbow.
The home was a bower of beauci-
ful flowers, in which the harmonious
decoration made an artistic scene,
together with the throng of pretty
ladles elaborately gowned, who made
the affair a very happy one. A pro-
fusion of palms, ferns and many dif-
ferent varieties of cut blossoms were
in evidence everywhere. The punch
table placed in an alcove off the hall,
was adorned with red honeysuckles
and ferns. Red tapers in brass can-
dlesticks added to the picturesque-
ness of the scene. The dlnlngroom
was beautiful In yellow and white,
the color scheme being carried out in
the refreshments served. Little Miss
Marjorie Lowe opened >he door for
the guests and Elmore Elbow car-
ried a miniature brtsket tied with
pink ribbons in which the cards were
received. Mmes. Harris, W. B. Pas-
chall, George Fredorickson, R. A
Kleinschmidt and Miss May Bryant
welcomed the guests, introducing
them to the receiving line composed
of the two hostesses, and Mrs. Yi.
J. Woodruff of Perry, a sister of
Mrs. Lowe. Mrs. John J. Merrill and
Mrs. William Hoyt Raymond pre-
sided over the punch table. Mrs. J.
H. Brownlee served tea and Mrs C
T. Engles served ices. Mmes. Arthur
White, John Kerfoot, R. F. Carson,
Edgar Bozarth and Elizabeth Arnold,
assisted. Three hundred guests at-
tended the event.

The PEOPLE'S Non-Partisan charter, adopted by a majority of
three to one, PROVIDES for exprewsty what Grant says he will
IGNORE and does it in the following specific words:
"There is hereby CREATED and ESTABLISHED a CIVIL
SERVICE COMMISSION for the City of Oklahoma City, to consist
of three members • • • whose terms of office SHALL BE for
six years, and who SHALL BE elected by the Board of Commissioners
at the first meeting of the Board, or within ten days thereafter."—•
Seetion 1, Article 3, of the Charter.
"I believe thoroughly that the CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION
should be composed of men of high standing and unquestioned integ-
rity, and should be NON-PARTISAN. If the Civil Service Commis-
sion falls into the hands of POLITICIANS it would iusure incompetent
men in office. That is to be avoided at any cost."—From the platform
of J. F. WARREN, CHARTER CANDIDATE FOR MAYOR.
Now, Mr. Voter, yon have the frank statements of both candi-
dates for Mayor. It seems reasonable to suppose that both tickets
will follow the leadership of their respective candidates for Mayor.
MR. VOTER, do YOU want a Mayor who will administer YOUR
law as YOU made it, or do YOU want a Mayor who will administer
YOUR law as HE pleasest
A vote for the inauguration and administration of the SPIRIT
