Guthrie Priest In Bad
The following appeared in the
Sundays Daily Oklahoman,
Father John Vandastell, rector of
St. Mary's Catholic church in Guthrie,
was arrested Friday by the police
while making a raid upon a negro
resort, in—the negro section of the
city.
He is being held under bond of $25
to appear in police court Tuesday
to answer to charges of ' being in a
room with a woman not his wife for
immoral purposes."'
Alice Coleman, negro,arrested with
him is b°ing held in jail on similar
charges. The house in which the ar-
rest were made, is said to be the
residence of Curley Washington,
negro. It is 400 block on westLin-
coin Ave., and stands by itself along
the banks of a creek.
Sergant James Evans, who with
Herbert Spencer, J, E, Williams and
Fred Partenheim, made the arrests,
said Saturday night that the house Is
known as a notorious resort and that
it had b°en raided Friday afternoon,
In an effort to find a man wanted for
rotb°r.v. Another raid was made Fri-
day night, lie said, and the priest
arrested.
The above taken from the Oklaho-
man docs not give much particulars,
and as the case has not yet come to

The priest claims a frame-up but it
is hard to figure it that way when
he evidently went to the resort on his
own accord and it is alleged that
the distinguished gentleman was
partly undressed when taken. This
is a very crave matter for all con-
cerned and the public hopes the cas°
will come to trial in order to get the
straight of it. Should the case be

On Discontinued Patterns
IIOOSIKU ('iil)incts have always been sold at low prices, which
have been fixed by the factory at a figure consistent with the great
economies made possible by Uoosier's quantity production. Hereto-
fore it has been impossible for any dealer to offer the Hoosier at a
discount. Hul right now we have on hand a miscellaneous collection
of IIOOSIKU Cabinets in models that have been discontinued. We
have received permission from the makers to put special prices on
these particular cabinets in order to clear them out.
If you are wise you will come in at once and select one of these
specially priced Iloosiers. The opportunity may not occur again.
