'JWestard and Interior FIRST GOVERNOR OF OKLAHOMA DIES SUDDENLY to Re- rtune Away Tl'yln% coup Lost Fo OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., July 6.—Charles N. Haskell, former Governor, died here suddenly after a short illness. Captain of Oklahoma's t ship of state, Charles Nathaniel Hasksll left the executive chair virtually |penniless to become a milliona! oil man and railroad builder, or ly to see his business crash and to spend th: evening of his life in attempting to recoup his for- tune. After a few spectacular years in Wall Street Haskell returned to Oklahoma in 1929 as head of the Municipal Gas Company at Mus- kog later b:came president of the Sapula Gas Company. When he came to Muskogee from hio in 1901, he intended to prge- tice law, but instead he came CHARLES Ny HASKELL three of the linés extending from Mus- 4 builder ol railroads: and kogee testify to his work. With the opening of these lines a tide jof immigration swept into Indian Territory. After the constitutional conven- tion in which Haskell figured he was elected first governor of the new state of Oklahoma in 1907 and served four years. Borrows Money Leaving the statehouse in 1912 he borrowed money for a vacation.| for Harry Sinclair. and in this connection received his first con- tact with oil development. Within a few years he was in New York,| known in Wall Street as head of oil interests valued at $70,000,000 For months he headed the Mid- dle States Petroleum Company. In 1920 the company was placed in receivership and Haskell was hal- ed into court in connection with oil fraud charges that did not de- velop. More Bad Luck With the main company on the downward path he turned his attention toward subsidiaries, be- coming a heavy operator on the curb in Southern States Oil. The trading eventually was suspended in that issue, and the concern was taken over by the Middle States company. In September, 1924, Pembroke, his palatial éstate at Glen Cove, L. I. went for $509,000 at a forc- ed sale. With his fortune nearly gone the former Governor went to Fort Worth, Tex., in 1927 and dealt in oil. During the previous year he constructed a toll' road between Tampico and Matamoras, Mexico. In the meantime he purchased an Interest in oil and as wells near | Muskogee, his old home, and in 1928 he organized a gas distribu- |tion system to supply ‘a number lof towns in Eastern Ok!lahoma. | Reared on Farm Haskell was born in Putnam County, Chio, March 13, 1850. Reared on a farm, he gained his education in rural schools, later teaching and studying law. On Oc- tober 11, 1881, he married Miss Lucy Pomeroy; she died in March, 1888, and in September of the next year he married Miss Lillie Gal- lup. 4 He had been admitted to the bar in 1880 and practiced law in Ottawa, Ohio. Therz he got h‘ls first taste of railroad building, promoting and comstructing the Finley, Fort Wayne and Western Railway, in 1888. —————— i L. M. CARRIGAN RETURNS FROM TRIP TO WESTWARD L. M.

A. P.

A. P. Kashevaroff made the trip to Sitka | on the steamer Aleutian, leaving, here Monday Pftemoon at 4 o'clock.i On Monday evening, aboard the; steamer, the Rev. Kashevaroff ga\‘e‘l a lecture on the historical phases of Sitka, explaining in detail what! the tour would see in the old Russian capital. } At 6 c'clock Tuesday morning,! when the steamer docked in the' town, Father Kashevaroff took a' group of the tour party to the Russian cemetery, visiting the| grave of Princess Maksoutoff, the’ first wife of Prince Maksoutoff, the last Russian Governor of Alaska. After breakfast, the whole party of| 36 members accompanied Fnther‘ | Kashevaroff to the Russian Church where he explained the different’ objects and showed the most beau-' tiful paintings and embroideries to] the southern party. | Following the trip to the church, the group went to the Park where Father Kashevaroff again explained in detail the various points of in-| terest, and later to the Sheldon/ Jackson Museum before the steam- er left at noon. Members of the’ tour were extremely appreciative and said their trip to Sitka was; made vastly more interesting with Father Kashevaroff in the party. After the departure of the Aleu-‘ tian, Father Kashevaroff hired a gasboat to take him to Herring' Bay, about five miles from Sitka,| where he spent several hours wnh' his son-in-law and daughter, Mr,| and Mrs. Jack Calvin and their, By ROBBIN COONS infant daughter.
