onto tl o gang and corraled them in house in that neighborhood One of the three men escaped and made his way on horseback south to Hayes Center Culbertson and thence headed for Kansas Monday morning a few miles south of Culbert son the sheriff of Hayes county arrest ed tho fleeing thief and brought him back to Culbertson from which point ho telegraphed the sheriff at North Platte to come to Hayes Center after his prisoner Tho Hayes county sheriff arrived at his home Monday evening Ho allowed the prisioner to take off his coat and hat and wash The prisioner went to tho door to throw out the dirty water and forgot to come back To our knowledge he has not yet been found The sheriff of Lincoln county was in Mc Cook Tuesday night on his way home without the prisioner of course To Increase Facilities In order to increase facilities and avoid delays as far as possible tho telegraph office at this place is to be overhauled and the old fixtures roplaced by larger ones Wire No 3 will be quadruplexed through to Denver thus doubling the capacity of the local office which now has but one quad By this quadrupling operation different operators can send or receive dispatches at the same time over the same wire A new wire will be con nected up through to Denver at Brush A number of new operating tables will be put in and the service improved greatly from every material aspect As perhaps 300 messages are received and sent at this office every day the impor tance of these improvements will be ap preciated Receipts Will Not Warrant Uptown Office Manager Heber of the Western Union says he would be only too delighted to give the people of McCook an uptown office if the receipts of tho office in this city warranted any such expenditure He states however that they are entirely too low to admit of such an expense being on an average only a little above 100 per month when to secure an up town office perhaps the receipts would have to reach two or three times that sum While the increased convenience and privacy and the better service of an uptown office would doubtless increase the receipts in a measure it is highly improbable that they will in many years reach the point named by the local man ager Entertained The Old Soldiers The members of the Ladies Circle en tertained the old soldiers over the Model shoe store last Friday aftornoon A big feast was spread and the occasion was greatly enjoyed There was to have been a joint installation of the officers of the post and circle but this had to be post poned until next Thursday on account of the post failing to
