Delegates Taken
for Pinkcrton Men
Bulging Hip Focketi and Hard Facet
Signi that Betray the De
tectivei.
A doien men were enjoying a luncheon
a I one table at the Loyal Thursday noon
and the story got out some way that '.he
party consisted of the best known detec
tives and thief and murderer catchers in
the country, and that the luncheon was
being given In honor of W. A. Plnkerton
As a result most of the other guests at the
luncheon hour discontinued their meal and
gazed In curiosity on the group.
"The big fellow there at the head of '.he
table Is Plnkerton." said one. "He looks
like a cold-blooded, calculating fellow that
would have no mercy."
"Yes, you can tell by their very appear
ance that they have to deal With criminals
of all classes. Notice that bulging appear
ance of their hip pockets. I suppose each
of them carries one or two guns and a
whole bunch of handcuffs and manacles.
They must be ready at all times for Instant
emergencies. What hard looking faces they
have. It must be because of their vocation."
Just then a clerical looking man entered
and sat down with the Plnkerton group
and began chatting with the detectives.
One of the more loquacious guests then
beckoned to Manager Taggart of the
hotel and asked him In a whisper: "How
long are the detectives going to remain In
the city."
"What detectives?"
"Why, that Plnkerton party over there."
"What? Those men Pinkerton detec
tives? Why bless you. Mr. Plnkerton and
his party left Wednesday evening. Those
men are delegates to the Young Men's
Christian association conference. And the
bulging hip pockets Instead of containing
automatic pistols and handcuffs held
merely bibles.

Trucks Crash
Into Street Car,
Passengers Hurt
Told to Jump by Car Men, Aged
Woman Breaks Arm and Others
Are Braised.
"Jump, Jump," yelled several passengers
and the car men on a Harney street car
when a set of trucks broke loose from a
work car .ahead and came rolling down
from Douglas street on Twentieth at 10:30
Friday morning.
The passengers jumped and several sus
tained serious injuries.
Mrs. Frank Girdle, 3543 Patrick avenue,
a woman 65 years of age, had lier arm
broken by the fall and was severely bruised
about the arms and head.
Mrs. W. W. Bartlett was bruised and cut
about the right arm, while S. J. Rothwell,
4.128 Grant street fell, wrenching his arm
and was unable to walk or get back on
the car.
For more than thirty minutes the aged
woman, Mrs. Girdle, lay In a little bakery
In the rear of Twentieth and Farnam
streets before an ambulance responded or
the street car officers succeeded In getting
a surgeon to relieve her. She was deathly
pale, some blood was running from her cuts
and the broken arm evidently was causing
great pain. The trucks which ran into
the car were picked up, and the cars
started long before aid arrived for the In
jured woman.
A work car was dragging a set of trucks
up the Harney and Thirty-third street
line. The trucks suddenly broke loose and
started down hill at a good rate of speed.
It frightened everyone on the car which
was following the work car and the pas
sengers were told to Jump. The trucks
did no damage to the car when they did
strike It.

CATTLE ARE COMING NORTH
Moving; Fast from the Ranges of
Teaas to Better Grass
I p Here.
Cattle are moving fast from the range?
of Texas to the better grass of the north
ern ranges In South Dakota. Wyoming and
Montana. Scattering shipments have been
moving north for some time, but now the
heavier shipments are on the way. In the
olden days these cattle were driven over
land by long stages and allowed to feed
as they went. The northern grass makes
better cattle for the market than does the
grass of Texas, and with the advent of the
railroads the overland ' trails were given
up and the cattle are now sent by the
tralnload.
