and aside from president anil senator the interest in the primaries will be centered in local contests in the various i of the state. The democrats, too, encouraged by the election of George Chamberlain, democrat, as Bourne's colleague two years ago, are taking strong interest in the senatorial primary vote and likewise have four candidates. Harmony in the democratic ranks of Tennessee seems to be an assured fact now, and with all past differences buried, Tennessee democracj will again te triumphant. Ten years ago Frazier was elected govprnor bj a majority of 50,000, but today the state a republican governor and I'nited States senator.

ONES FOR DRAYAGE All Orders Given Prompt Attention HtSfMLB 600DS SPECIALTY The pledge ot support for the good roads movement published in today's paper, is most encouraging. It proves that the business men of Ada are fully alive to the necessity of action along this line, and that it will be a go. Ada can always be relied upon to come across with her part when anything for the good of the country is needed, (rood roads wHJ benefit the ONLY S6H PASSENGERS OF TITAN- it- SAVED--OYKR woo GO DOWN WITH SHIP. Special to Evening New York, April 16., 2:30 P. appalling magnitude of the wreck of the Titanic has been little mitigated by the information which has filtered in today.

The rescuing steamer, Carpathia, is headed for New York with 86S of the survivors, believed to "be all who were saved. The Titanic is at the bottom of the Atlantic with 1350 victims. Hoipe that the Parisian and Virginia picked up other survvors was dashed to the ground to the Allen line officers. The crash came when most of the passengers had retired. Many rushed on deck in scant clothing and had no time to return before entering the life boats.

The passengers huddled together and prayed for dawn. At 2 o'clock the Titantic dived to the bottom. About dawn the Carpathla arrived. The traditions of the sea were lived up to, as most of the passengers rescued were women and children. Capt.

Smith, 30 years in the service of the company, went down with his ship. He was ill fated fommander of the Olympic when that ship collided with the British cruiser Hawk, bat no blame was attached to him. The Carpathia w.ill probably be in wireless communication with Sable Isle tonight. So far the messages have been transferred by the Olympic which is now out of reach. Men prominent in two cotitiinents are among the missing.

Among these are Col. John Astor, Isadore Strauss, the New York millionaire merchant, and Benjamin Guggenheim, reputed one of the most wealthy men in the world. President Taft has sought in vain for tidings of his Archibald Butt. President Chas. M.

Hayes, of the Grand Trunk line, with his wife and daughter are saved. Alfred G. Vanderbilt, at the last moment, changed his mind and did not sail. Henry D. Harris, theatrical manager, is not reported among the saved.

CULllNS PRESENTS SOME IDEAS ON BASE BULL The Oklahoma state 'Base Bail league now in full away wants to play in Ada, Holdenville will give us three of each week, provided we give her park entirely enclosed.

Col. Dug Lasater says be will donate the ground near the compress if will ienclose same. we are discussing the ins and outs of the sporting game, let's take our hats off to the grandest old sport of all. 'Ever since the game began in 1877 never has there 'been one iota of suspicion on the sport. Its by far the cleanest and healthiest of them all.

The best evidence of this fact is the thousands and thousands of fans that attend he game? throughout the land every afernoon Not even an intoxicating drink is sold and betting is forbidden under any and all circumstances. Honesty of purpose and the manner in which the men at the head of affairs in th base ball game have kept the spot' is what has caused it to become' the most popular of all out door games It is going to grow in popularity and keep growing, where they an drawing 10,000 people to a game now they will be drawing 20,000 in a year Its the one sport in which old and young believe and have faith thai cannot be shaken. Let's hope it will always remain that way. Now, Fans, let's get busy we have a good chance to see good base ball. It's lip to us.

T. O. CULbl'NS. U. M.

Wintersmith, secretary and treasurer of the Oklahoma 'Portland Cement Co. also a -base ball fan says a few weeks ago he went to Kansas Jity on a business trip. He had tired of tlie monotony of dining car fare sought out the best hostelry in the city determining to get a regular meal regardless of tne limit of a meal. He seized 'the meriu card that he found propped up against some silverware, the first item that caught hia eye caused a dazed feeling to pass over him, yet his eyes had not deceived him. There was the item.

(Bean Soup $1.00, Mr. Wintersmith has been commend ed for bravery and at that moment he justified his reputation. He grasped that menu firmly in both hands read it through from start to finish. This is what he read: SOUP Bean $1.00 Ox Tail (short) 50- Bacon Stuffed $1.50 lash (low grade) 75c 'Hash (18k) $1 ROAST Beef Mexican Prime cut $1.50 Beef (plain) $1.0 GAME Codfish Balls (double 75c Grizzly Roast $1.00 Grizzly friend Too Jack Rabbit (whole) $1.00 VEGETABLES Baked Beans (plain) 75c Baked (greased) Two Potatoes 50c Two Potatoes Peeled 75c PASTRY Rice Pudding (plain 75c Rice Pudding ('with molasses) If this place was back in Ada, that low grade hadh would undoubtedly be a violation of the pure food law and baked beans at $1.00 a throw certainly tends to a breach of the peace. His eyes caught sight just then of a foot note on the card whic'h in.

formed btim that the menu he had was a souvenir and a reproduction of a menu that had been used in the days of 1849. T. O. CU'LLINS. PIPS IT BYRjrSill TESTED Monday the 'waterworks pumps at 'Byrd's Mill were given a thorough test in the presence of J.

cm CHURCH WILL BE ENLARGED The First Christum church building is to tie enlarged, so its pastor, Rev Leroy Anderson declares, and as he is a man who usually accomplishes what he undertakes, the announcement may 'be taken as an accomplished fact. The -plan is to add six Sun day school rooms and -this is to be done in one day by volunteer workmen. It is probable that It will be done on 'Monday, at which time ever) man who can and 'will help will be on hand. Tbe ladies will also have a part In the work, they having agreed to serve a good dinner to the faith ful workmen, thus encouraging them to put forth their best efforts. ELECTRICAL TERMS DEFINED UNO EXPLAINED Every business has its own language and nomenclature, The average Wall atret operator for instance, can tie a neor-iiyte's brain into hard knots the course of a few moment's conversation on fiscal matters.

'Btit the business which presents itself to tho ayman as the most hopeless riddle electrical manufacturing. Dr. Schuyler Skaats Wheeler, president of the Crocker-Wheeler of Ampere, N. recently deplored in a public utterance the spirit of opposition which has grown up between he electrical engineer and Hie world at large. "You cannot talk In electrical terms to the average layman," he sakl 'without scaring him to death.

The mention of anything as abstruse as induction coils is sure (o set his wits ro wandeiing. A certain meinod ot immediately losing your auditor's attention is to make use of a technical term." 41 Electricity, like Browning, is not difficult to understand if ai Broach it fearlessly, undaunted by 'Uu "electric-talk" which has been ooinor during the last couple of (incudes There is a definite, logical roasoii each one of the terms is in use, and in another decade they i be as familiar to that part of the public which is interested as automobile talk is fast becoming to tin public at large. At present "electric- talik" the average man feel that "be it ever so humble there is no place like ohm." The units of measurement are the basis of "electrictalk" amperes, voltb and watts. Ampere is the name of Frenchman who discovered how to measure electric current. The unit measurement was therefore called an ampere in acknowledgment of his valuable discovery.

Electricity a be best compared to a lowing through a pipe. The volunv 1 or gallons of water, corresponds to the volume, or amperes of electricity Bui water may flow at greater or less pressure. A thousand gallons of water flowing tlicough a oipo at one pound pressure to the square inch would just dribble out a I c-mi Under a thousand pounds pressure to the square inch it would shoot on 1 of the pipe with fierce energy. T'i number of pounds of pressure under which water is flnvlng corn s- ponds to the of volts of pies- sure under which tin curren 1 is flowing. The energy i i a out ot a pipe is ihe result o' the unie of water and the pressure under 'which it is flowing.

Everyone has noticed how much faster water Hows out of a faucet in one place than it does out of a faucet in another. The tjuawtity of water which Hows oiu faucet depends upon the watoi pressure in that particular locality. In the same way the quantity of electricity delivered over a single circuit is the product of the amperes) multiplied by the pressure (volts). The electrical term for the energy thus generated is watts, A thousand watts are called a kilo war as this term is part of the metric system. In order to understand just what a kilowatt is, it is necessary ascertain what it will do.

We km, A thai a stream of water of a i flowing at a given pressure into a turbine will generate a certain quantity of horse-power of energy. A kilowatt Is the mechanical equivalent of one and a third horse-power. Electric lighting circuits usually carry 110 to 120 volts. An ordinary carbon sixteen candle power lamp takes a little less than half an ampere in volume, and consequently consumes about fifty wabts of current. As a thousand watts are equal to one and a i horse-power, fifty watts are equal to less than seven hundredths of a borse-power.

A Tungsten twenty candle power lamp takes less than a quater of an ampere, jor about three hundredths of a horse-power. It is interesting to remember in this connection that horse-power is actually based as a measure of energy on the amount of power that could be produced by a horse. In the old days before wheels began to be turned by steam were turned by a horse walking on a tread-mill. When the ingenuity of man' bad discovered steam power it was necessary to have a measure that would convey what it could accomplish in terms then in usage and understood. The man with a steam engine to sell said in substance, "My steam engine can do more than ten of your horses." Hence the expression ten horse-power engine.

The man with the steam engine found it necessary, however. to "be overconservative in s'atp- aients in order to spread belief in new-fangled machine. He therefore, the amount of work that his steam engine'would perform, so that a mechanical horse-power ia actually a good deal more than a horse EMPRESS THEATRE Must Refined Vaudeville Hih Class Motion Plctyns Vaudeville that Is Vaudeville VAUDEVILLE TONIGHT EXTRAORDINARY--ENGAGEMENT Tuesday Wednesday off the Anker- Those Staring and Dancing Soubretts In New Songs and Dances Tonight?
