we have had for many a year.
It is reported tiat some of our young folks con-
template having a masquerade party in Grange
hall the forepart of March. A masquerade would
be a great mistake, there is no end to the license
in parties of that character, and for the good of
all should be frowned down and avoided.
Few Bell telephones are left in Spring Mills,

swindled.
The K. G. E. had their annual banquet in their
handsome and commodious hall on Wednesday
evening last, and as usual on these occasions, it
was very largely attended. The banquet hail was
beautifully decorated and presented a charming
scene. The tables were skillfully set and furnish"
ed with a profusion of dainties and substantials of
a most inviting and toothsome character, to
which all did ample justice. Several interesting
addresses were delivered by able speakers, fol-
lowed by well executed marches and drills by the
Sir Knights. Music and enjoyment continued un-
til quite a late hour when all retired to their re-
spective homes.
Lodge No. 597, I. 0. O. F. of Spring Mills, had
their annual dinner in Grange hall on Thursday
last, and notwithstanding the then prevailing
blizzard was largely attended. The dinner was
sumptuous and most inviting. The tables, three
in number, extending the entire length of the
hall, were artistically set and lavishly furnished
withdainties of a rare and choice character. The
substantials consisted of chicken and waffles,
meats and side dishes of a dozen or more varie_
ties—in brief it was a feast “fit for the gods.”
Thel. 0. O. F. orchestra enlivened the occasion
with some choice selections of music. Several
and enjoyment. In the evening the Rebekahs had
their annual banquet. It was also largely attend.’
ed, but of course the remarkable severity of the
weather interfered very materially with the at.
tendance. The supper was very elegantly gotten
up, and the tables beautifully arranged and deco-
rated. The menu was discussed with a gusto
that left little doubt of its appreciation, Singing,
music and several addresses consumed the even:
ing until quite a late hour, when all retired to

Wilson Gets Half Okiahoma Delegates. |
Contest for control of the Oklahoma
delegates to the Democratic national
convention, waged between Champ |
Clark and Woodrow Wilson campaign- |
ers, resulted in a compromise agree-
ment whereby a split delegation will |
be sent to Baltimore.
The compromise was reached after |
an all-night contest. State politics, at |
times, obstructed the way to a de-
cision. The turning point came when |
an amendment authorizing indorse.
ment of Champ Clark for president
was offered to a resolution which pro-
vided for a divided delegation, ten del.
egates for Clark and ten delegates for
‘Wilson.
The amendment was lost by a vote
of 314% to 289. This vote showed
plainly to the Clark adherents that
nothing remeined but compromise.
Thereupon the resolution for a divid-
ed delegation was adopted.
Missing Man In Jail.
John D. S. Ackenheil, thirty-three
years old, of Pittsburg, a salesman for
the Monolithic Paint company, of Cin-
cinnati, who had been missing since
Dec. 7, was found in the county jail
in Camden, N. J., by Detective Schreg-
ler.
He is serving twenty days for being !
drunk. A reward of $2500 was offered |
by his brother, Alfred Ackenbeil, a'
civil engineer of Palmyra, N. Y.
John registered at the Bellevue |
Stratford in Philadelphia on Dec. 7 and |
wired his house that he would go to
New York on Dec. 8, and to send his
mail to the Waldorf. He came to
Camden instead and got drunk. He
was arrested and fined and then re.

Bert disappeared a few days ago.
No one can be found who knows
where he went, but he told a friend
that he was going away for the sake
of peace in the Bowker home. Mrs.
Bowker became angry when she heard
this and remonstrated with Pettit and
told him that he had no right to offend
Bert to such an extent.
Pettit is said to have retorted that

he would see to it that she did not

Pettit.
Mrs. Bowker went into her bedroom
and closed the door. Pettit followed
her and apparently forced entrance to
the room, where another quarrel is
said to have occurred.
A hoy named Parsons, who lives in
the house as an adopted son, heard
Mrs. Bowker scream murder.

way saw Pettit seize Mrs. Bowker. He
told the authorities that he saw him
draw a revolver from his pocket and
point it at the woman.

Mrs. Bowker managed to break from
his grasp. She staggered into the
hall, and then Pettit fired two bullets
into his head. Mrs. Bowker fell against
the wall, cutting her head. The next
instant she fell to the floor dead. The
boy and his sister ran from the house
shouting for help.
William Souders was going by the
house, and he summoned Constable
Hurrell. They went into the house
and found the body of Mrs. Bowker.
Pettit was leaning against the bed and
was breathing.
Dr. Dix and Dr. Douglass were sum
moned. They said that Pettit was mor-
tally wounded and that he should be
removed to a hospital.
