A. "W. McKeand, "the man who triad* Oklahoma City," has been'engaged to come here and direct the Avork of the Terre Haute boosters' organization for a year. He is credited ith doing wonders in attracting public attention to Oklahoma City and iu the following outline he tells something: of his work there: "Oklahoma City began vtprm fee Youngsters in schools to reach

people^ who thought the Chamber of Commerce was an organization of and rich fellows. We organized the ___ 0,000 club, and our members included every class of people. We weren't cut for the money, wo wanted the frames*. Borne paid only one cent a "Week. "We knew that at the end of each tnonth^ we would find in our mail twenty checks for $100 each from twenty men. We were on their pay*"°1L And, we had instructions to call i, uj- their bookkeeper if thrt checks were

"If some W Jiian\ i3 going across the country frotn New York to San iFrancisco, we would spend five dollars £n telegrams asking him to stop at "Oklahoma City and tell us how he did %things and tell his story» We wanted these men to tell of their vision.

tell them that Oklahoma City was the best place on earth. We let their orators tell us that their town was the best. We never asked them to buy a dollar's worth of goods. I have seen courts adjourn and on one trip thirty schools let out for they knew the Oklahoma City men were coming. "We just tpld them we were from Oklahoma City and Invited them to come around any time and when we left we gave them plenty of high grade literature telling them all about Oklahoma City. We took a car filled with soft drinks, and bucket after bucket of candy* No town was too small for us and we always had from two to five ministers. "We were not boasters and we Just attempted to give them the real story of Oklahoma City as we saw it, .knew it and loved it." ,.

^TAKNS JITNEY PASSENGERS.

Traction Company Will Pay No Damages in Neiderhiser Accident. It is claimed by officials of the T. H., I. & E. Traction company that an accident. which occurred at Tenth street and Wabash avenue, Monday night, when a Jitney bus driven by Irwin Neiderhiser, 221T Fourth avenue, collided with a street car was wholly the fault of the jitney driver who it is said ran in front of the street car through sheer carelessness.

Edward H. Huhl, 1007 North Nineteenth street, was severely injured by the crash and the machine was badly damaged.

According to Manager E. M. Walk er, of the traction company, the street car was moving slowly, having just crossed the railroad and the machine ran in front of it, causing a sideswipe. "The accident at Tenth street and Wabash avenue occurred .wholly through the neglect of th* jitney driver," stated Mr. Walker when discussing the accident. "The street car was moving slowly and the machine ran in front of it. There were nine passengers on the Jitney, which is in Itself a flagrant violation of the law. It has also been reported to us that the driver was recently released from the penal farm, where he served a sentence for neglecting his wife and two children. The traction company i will not pay damages to any of the passengers on the machine and it is up to them to bring suit against the driver."

NEVINS VALUES UNCHANGED.

No delegations appeared from Nevins township, Wednesday morning, to object to the appraisement of real estate in that township for the present year. The average valuation as fixed by the appraisers was $26.98. an increase*, of $6.39 over the old assessment. This appraisement probably will remain unchanged until after the board of reviews has gone over the entire county, when a final effort will, be made to equalize the assessments of every township.

Accused In City Court Denies Without Avail Eights of Police In liquor Cases.

Making his defense on the assertion that the police had no right to search a person even after placed under arrest, that there was no right in the arrest, and that a man has a right to carry liquor upon his person if he does not give, barter or sell it, brought anything but luck to Gerald Johnson in City Court Tuesday afternoon when he pleaded not guilty to violating the liquor law.

Johnson was arrested by Patrolman Mahaney and Garnett at 225. Eagle street and when searched, Garnett found a half-pint of whiskey in an inside coat pocket and a wniskey glass Inside his shirt. When taking the whiskey, Johnson attempted to "strike it from Garnett's hand, but failed A fine of $100 and costs was made by the court along with a penal farm sentence of 60 days. A^fieal was taken and bond set at $500.

Elijah Farmer didn't want or need any attorney to defend him and was given a fine of $100 and 180 days, all suspended, when evidence showed that he had liquor upon his person illegally ajid gave some away, farmer was arrested in the rear of the Lem Mitchell restaurant at 206 Wabash, ayenue by Sergeant Rausch and Patrolmen Mahaney and Garnett.

Conflicting stories as to the place of obtaining the liquor came out in the trial, Farmer having told the officers upon his arrest that he had obtained it in St. L«ouis, but in court he said it was purchased from a negro in an alley.
