HEAI> OF CHINESE
REPUBLIC IS DEAD
Yuan Shi Kai, president of the
Chinese republic, died Tuesday. Pre-
mier Tuan Chi-Jut immediately ad-
vised Li Yuan Hung, the vice pres-
ident, of his succession to the pres-
idency.
Yuan Shi Kai had been ill for
several days with stomach trouble,
which was followed by a neervous
brakdown.
Quiet prevails in the capital, the
death of the president apparently
solves the heated political crisis.
The opinion was expressed Tues-
day that the death of Yuan Shi Kai
might leave an unfortunate effect
on political conditions and that it
was most inopportune for the south-
erners. Negotiations were on the
eve of successful completion on the
basis of the retirement of Yuan Shi
Kai in favor of Li Yuan Hung and
the formation of a coalition cabinet
in which the southerners expected
to obtain a predominating position.
The southerners were to guarantee
the safety of Yuan Shi Kai and his
monarchist partisans.
The death of the president, which
I under the constitution will resut in
the succession of Li Yuan Hung,
robs the southerners of all grounds
of hostility to the north, but it also
leaves them nothing with which to
bargain for power. Premier Tuan
Chi Jul, supported by troops, may
be able to set up a quasi-military
government in which the south-
erners, if represented at all, will be
in the minority.
Chang Soulin, governor of Muk-
| den province, and the former Man-
chu general, Chang Shun, may make
an attempt to reinstate the manchu
dynasty. It also is believed that
Feng Kuo Cheng, governor of Nan-
king, aspires to the presidency.
DOUBLE HEADER TODAY
A double header game of base
| ball will be played on the
j Gable Athletic field between Chero-
kee and Sequoyah counties in at-
| tendance at the normal, and Haskell-
Muskogee vs. Ottawa-Adair counties.
Both games are free. Everybody
invited.
If advertising pays, then it pays
I to advertise in a paper with a cir-
[ culation larger than all others com-
| bined. Arrow publications go into
every community in the county.

DR. It. W. MURRAY DEAD
Dr. R. W. Murray, the leading
doctor of Welling, who for the past
several months has been ailing,
died at his home Wednesday eve-
ning at 8:30, aged 53 years and 2
days. Dr. Murray formerly prac-
ticed medicine in this city. Several
years ago he located in Welling
where he enjoyed a good practice.
Dr. Murray was esteemed for his
good character, being of the kind
who responded to the call of the
poor with the same promptness and
sympathy as with those more able
to pay. Welling has lost a good
citizen who will be missed by the
people in and around that vicinity,
and his memory will be long held by
those who knew him.
The funeral, which was largely
attended, occurred Thursday, con-
ducted by Rev. Knight. Left to
mourn his departure are a wife, two
sons and two daughters. Two broth-
ers also survive him. Burial was
made in the cemetery east of his
home town.
CARL MORRIS TO
FIGHT DAV DA 1 LEY
Tulsa, Ok., June 4.—After weeks
of effort to secure an opponent for
Carl Morris the locul promoters
have been successful in signing up
Dan Dailey, the Pennsylvania giant,
and he will box Morris ton rounds
at Convention Hall on Friday ni ght
June 16.
The bout will attract unusual at-
tention on account of Dail jy's rec-
ord and size. He is tho biggest
heavyweight in the world with the
excepton of Jess Willard. He has
been defeated but once, and that by
Willard himself, who only succeed-
ed in winning the decision after a
terrible battle.
Daley is ti feet, 'I inches tall and
weighs 235 pounds. He has 11
reach of 84 inches, which is 4 inches
greater than Morris' reach. Ho Is
bigger in every respect than Gun-
boat Smith, Frank Moran, Fred Ful-
ton, Jim Coffey or Carl Morris. In
many respects he is a bigger man
than Willard.
Dailey will be the first big man
to meet Morris in Oklahoma. The
fans who have seen the big Okla-
homan conquer man after man have
been demanding that the promoters
match him with a man who is his
equal in size. In Dailey they have
the right opponent.
Dailey defeated Jim Coffey. He
knocked Coffey down five times In
six rounds. He knocked out A1
Palzer in two rounds. He met all
the other top-notchers and achieved
the wonderful record of scoiiug 14
knockouts in 24 bouts.
Daley will be here a Av-ek in ad-
vance of the match to work out.
Morris is already training at Sa-
pulpa.
In making an inventory of oui
stock of pride and dignity we all
ought to carefully distinguish be
tween that which has a real foun-
dation and that which is false 01
spurious. About the falsest thing
on earih is false dignity.
Greatly Benefitted by Chamberlain's
Liniment.
"I have used Chamberlain's Lini-
ment for sprains, bruises and rheu-
matic pains, and the great benefit
I have received justifies my recom-
mencing it in the highest terms."
writes Mrs. Florence Slife, Wabash.
Ind. If you are troubled with rheu-
matic pains you will certainly be
pleased with the prompt relief
which Chamberlain's Liniment af-
fords. For sale by all druggists.—
