The shooting: of Joseph Hipp, ; Florence farmer, by an unidentified man who was stealing fruit from the "Hipp orchard, calls to the mind of v Henry Ransom, an old settler living ; up along the river bluffs on the Cal , houn road, the fact that for a quar ter of a century fruit, garden truck .,' and chicken thieves have invaded northern Douglas and southern , Washington counties. .' Last week Ransom was at the rooms of the Douglas county pio ,. reers and there he related some of his experiences with the thieves Among his tales was one about catching boys in steel traps. Said he: " ."Some 25 years ago and perhaps it was 30, one fall I was bothered with animals that invaded my garden and stole my sweet corn. I never . knew what they were, but they , broke down the stalks and ate the corn, off the cobs. I had a lot of small steel traps and concluded that a would catch the varmmts, or at Jeast try. 'i ' "Planted in iiin r. . corn were musk melons and they were fine ones. At the time that I am talking about the melons were ripe. Well to make a long tory short, one afternoon I set half a dozenx or so traps out in the weet corn patch and staked them down and then waited results. Along about midnight I heard the most Unearthly screams, and hurrying i outdoors without stopping to dress ; ran to the sweet corn patch. And : what do you suppose I found? "There in two of the traps I had 'caught two boys. Each boy had a ; hand in a trap and each boy was begging to be released. I thought it was punishment enough and so with , good, fatherly advice I let them return to their homes in Flor ence. i "These two hoys had located 'my melons and had come out to sample them, and in pawing around had been caught in the traps. However, that did not end the stealing of the sweet corn. It kept on disappear- ' ing and I never got a tip on the real thief." , Pretty Girl Students at U. of C Must Cut i Powder and Lip Sticks i Chicago. Life for the pretty girl " atudents at the University of Chi- cago high school is getting to "just J one self-denial after another," to V ouote one of the prettiest sufferers. S s The last and some say the most ! drastic would abolish the powder i!'uifP rouge and the eyebrow pencil, i "Why, all the girls use these little 1; first aids to beauty," the incog in formant declared, "use them daily with telling, though not exactly vis ' ibly. ."The idea is all wrong. It does no i harm to dab a little powder on the end of your nose, touch up your lips and checks a bit of emphasize, just a trifle, the eyebrows. And what's V more, these little stunts will improve a girl's looks no matter how good looking she is to start with. . "Then look at the next 'don't' on V this list they just circulated." It reads: "We would recommend that students carry orily enough money for the legitimate expenses of each day." ; "Wonder what they call legiti mate? I am sure ice cream, candy ; and an occasionaly movie should ' come under that head." The trouble is the girls do not know who to go to fdY an interpre : tation of the word "legitimate." Principal George L. Harris said the protest against "conspicuous and inappropriate dress, rouging and the ; use of powder" and the curtailment of expense money originated with the Parents' Association of the Uni versity High School. "If that's so, what's the use of "protesting," said the pretty inform ' ant as she dabed her nose with the , ! powder puff and started for a movie. Advice to Young Wife. London.

By ROBERT WELLES RITCHIE. (Staff Correspondent CnWmal Serrlee) LoLndon, Aug. 23. To William Quick, proprietor Occidental hotel, Buffalo, Wyo.: Dear Bill Well, Old Timer. I've met him the original Curly Wolf of 'Empstead 'Earth; the bold, bad man of Birdcage Walk. Anything wou want-to hitch onto him for a handle. Bill, will be away below weight. 'I reckon even the man who designs Queen Mary's bonnets would look like a stray that'd wintered hard alongside this ring-tailed snorter. He's got me plumb scared to death, and I've seen a few bad men out Wyoming way in my time. This bad hombre wears a red coat that looks like it might have been cut from a government issue blanket upon the Crow reservation; and knee pants, Bill, which're pierc ing blue; to say nothing about the white silk stockings below those pants. Also he's got a gold cord hung over his vest with a whistle on the end of it hitched up alongside his left shoulder, where he can find it handylike to blow if he wants to call his gang' in case of a knock-down-and-drag-out. His face is of the old rock-bound pattern, like one of these pictures of the early Puri tan Father picking arrows out of his kidneys; and his voice Let me give you the whole plans and specifications of this institution: No One Cared a Whoop. "Mister Blawum-Bla-Bla," says he, like he was announcing a foot- racer down at the Casper lair and I edge into the main room, all pink around the gills. But nobody's tak ing any notice. I don t count for cast mule-shoe on a sheep trail. Why, I say to myself, why the big bawl-out, just as if I was master of. the king's hound dogs or some thing. royal like that? But soon 1m hep; everybody that comes through the bars gets the same brand iron put onto him. And everybody who's already through just goes right on talking through his adenoids and don't give a whoop-hoorah for the Bad Man s little game. "Well, that's where he gets off," I murmur to myself, feeling all riled up against him for making me con- nicuous to myself. But, bill, 1 made a big mistake when I thought that bally-hoo bird was through with his chores. We all sat down about 500 Eng lishmen. Americans and various and I'm just tucking my napkin be tween the second and third button of my vest when there comes a bellow from topside, where the speakers' table is. The Lone Wolf was sure having his howl. Mister chairman, he begins, my lord mayor, my lords, admirals, sheriffs, high commissioner and gen tlemen, pray silence for grace 1" His Watch Was Safe. I was invited to a big feed. Bill, which it was given by Lord North cliffe for to pay honors to the two like v bovs who flew across the At lantic. About the swellest and most recherchay affair I've been to since those boys in Buffalo invited me to the badger fight in your barn three years ago and elected me to but vou remember all that, of course. Well, sir, a shorthorn in vel vet knee nants took mv hat and raincoat for it was raining, of course, being London and looked sort of sideways at my watch, but it was strapped on, being one of those dinkev wrist watches, you know. Then, feeling very humble and all hands and feet, 1 breeze up the grand staircase toward the feed cor ral, and here at the gate stands, this Bad Man of Hell Hole, flaming like a barn afire in that red coat. I start to shy past, but he puts out his hand. "Nem, please," he roars. Of course I don't get him right away, and I reckon he wants to see my passport. "Nem, please," says he, looking very threatening, and on a chance I whisper what my sponsors in baptism pinned on me in my early youth. Straightway he turns to ward the big room and bawls me out: I leaped out of my chair like I was rowelled. Everybody else riz up, respectful like. Then this hom bre put a whizzer across on that noble company. He asked a bless ing on the napkins and table tools and wine glasses, we had in front of us; which they were the "'only things in sight to bless at that mo ment. And he said it in Latin! Get that, Bill. The Latin stuff.

"All right," I moan to myself; "here's where you're at the end of the lariat. Dead-eye. Now let's eat and let's get no more pow-wow from any train robber with a Latin education." But was he through, Bill? Not on your great grandma's daguerreotype he wasn't. You know what a toastmaster's supposed to he at one of these for mal feeds like the Buffalo Cham ber of Commerce gives twice a year in the Sunday school rooms of the M. E. church. He's supposed to be trail boss and run the outfit, rope and hobble any loco steer that runs wild and sort of sauce up the beans and sweet pickles with fancy words. But did the toastmastcr at this show do that? He sure didn't. Every time this poor pinto began to get restless and show signs of getting something off his chest bangl Ole Deadeye had beat him to it and had hit the table a ter rible wallop with a boy's size maul he carried. "Mister Chairman, my Lord May or, my lords, admirals, sheriffs, high commissioners and gentlemen, see that your glasses are charged. The toast is, "The King!" Bill, that two-gun man in the red coat, had us all buffaloed. Whether my glass was charged or whether I paid for it on the nail, I riz up meek as an old ewe. All 500 of us got up on our hind legs and drank the health of the king just because this short-card gambler told us to do so. I never felt so plumb cowed in mv life. And I bet vou a plug r ' - ' Rill, if King George himself had been there he'd been afraid to give old Badwater Ben any back talk. - " Ihey tell me, Bui, these wise hombres, who've lived in London a long time, that 'this official bad man's a sort of a hold-over handed down ' from old times, when they had to have a strong-arm handy to give the bum's rush to any diner who had the bad manners to pull a dirk on the bird feeding next to him. But I rise to remark here and now that, as an institution, he doesn't add none to a man's- appe tite. Institutions, Bill that's Merry England. Take the portcullis, for instance. I'll lay five to one, Bill, you never saw a portcullis, and probably you've breezed along through life more or less happy, though plumb ignorant of portcullises. Well, Bill, a portcullis is an institution, and there's one hero which mighty nigh got me into trouble. Breezed down to the Tower of London one day with another American, and this lop-eared coy ote was so bubbling over with hard liquor that if you'd hit him he'd uv rung like a firebelt. We wandered through Beauchamp (pronounced "Bechum") Tower and the White Tower, where George keeps all his family jewels and knjeknacks and a lot of plunder he inherited from kings now in the discard. Finally we came to the tower where the little princes were murdered, which was some time back before Wyom ing became a state, Bill A corn fed muley, who was dressed up like the Jack of Hearts, was showing us around. "An" 'ere, gentmun,M he says, "is the famous portcullis of the Wohsis Tower, which 'asn't been lowered since Bloody Mary pu her hair up and started wearing corsets," or words to that effect. He was pointing at the time to the top part of the dog-gondest heaviest corral gate you ever saw: made of oak so old it was black and studded with bolts thick as your wrist; about 12 feet across, I figured and like to weigh about '.hree tons, Some gatel Even if we could only see the top part, the rest hanging through the floor over the arch be low the tower. "One touch on this lever." Jack of Hearts was saying, "an' this stu- pendjdous portcullis drops to bar the enemies of 'Is Majesty." "How long dju say since some body gave somebody else the gate?" whinnies my friend the Stewed Prune. "Four hundred and fifty-two years, sir, thenk you sir," Jack comes back at him. "And that's the lever that drops her?" this American Pickled Onion whiffles through his nose. "Quite," says the picture post card, meaning "Yep." "Well, Bill, this bird I'm teamed up with takes me aside. "Take our li'l friend out on Sir Walter Raleigh's Walk and show mm tne pretty pigeons, , he says: ten mm me story ot your lite any thing to keep him interested. 1 m going to port a portcullis. tit's been up too long." Bill, I never had such a close squeak from large troubles. I al most had to throw and hog-tie that Comanche to get him away from that porticullis. Whfr, say, if he'd dropped that old corral gate it would have been coffee and bullets at sun rise for us both. Yours trulv. THE WRITER GUV. Attempt at Caveman Stunt Ends In Arrest Fortland, Ore., Aug. 23. Old John Law is always spoiling ro mance. Just when Ernest Fix tried to pull a caveman stunt and fix it up for he and Miss Wally Engle to wed, the bride-to-be went and had him arrested. "He used to sit on my porch with a gun and threaten to kill me unless I married him," she told the court. Then Ernest, who is 17 years old, was held under $2,000 bonds for in vestigation by the grand jury. Coal Output Reduced. London. The coal output from mines in England last year totalled 227,714,579 tons, against 248,473,119 tons in 1917, and 287,411,869 tons in 1913.

Charley Carter, colored, told Chief of Detec tives Clyde Treasner, explaining why he hadn't paid for some oats taken from the bin of William Mather. "I guess you got me, boss, ' he continued.

Make Your Money Earn Money The man who tells you it is unwise to nut money in a savings bank to earn only 4 per cent is dead wrong AND HE KNOWS IT TOO. It is the safest place in the world to put your money because you know where it is and can get it at any time. 'Nevertheless a man should speculate with some part of his savings or earn ings and he must do this if he wants to make greater profits and more money with his money. A man with a hundred thousand to a million dollars can afford to invest in four or five ner cent interest bearing stocks and bond there is scarcely any risk in that plan, although they may decline in market value. He ia satisfied with the income derived and usually doesn't have to worry very much but he certainly didn't make his pile by savins: small turns. which only earned small rates of interest. The Men Behind This Company Yon are invited to "look no" this Company through any channel you may choose. The officers and directors whose names follow, are all men of integrity and reliability. They are putting their own money, their time and faith in this- enterprise with a determination to make it a big success. HARRY C. ALBRO, President Vice-President Universal Oil and Product Co., Buffalo. N. Y. G. M. YUNKER, Vic President Real Estate and Oil, Buffalo, N. Y. M B.. SHEPARD, Secretary and Treasurer. AH the oil enterprises that are today pouring forth such vast riches were at the start speculative. This is speculative. If this were not speculative if oil were actually spouting from wells on this property today you wouldn't have this opportunity your money wouldn't be needed or accepted. It has been proven, many times, where one has lost a few dollars in one of these speculations that same person invested in another that made thousands.- -Our chances for a big strike are as good as any and better than most. We all expect to strike it rich here. While there is every reason to believe your investment will yield enoromus profits, we do not make any specific promises or guarantee to that effect, except we do guarantee every stockholder a good clean run for his money. The men back of this enterprise are perfectly frank with you not only because of the moral consideration, but because they believe it pays. Already the wisdom of this course has been amply demonstrated. Facts Hot Fairy Tales The following are a few samples of many reports concerning fortunes made on small in vestments in oil: $10 in Texas Oil Co .$1,000 $10 in Pinal Oil Co $1,800 $10 in Fortuna Oil Co $2,500 $10 in Home Oil Co $4,000 $10 in San Joaquin Oil Co. $8,800 $10 in Quaker Oil Co $2,000 $10 in Coline Oil Co $4,740 $10 in Merntt Oil Co $5,700 $10 in Central Oil Co $1,800 $10 in Winchester Co $825 $10 in John Wellemeyer Co $8,330 $10 in Steubenville, Ohio, Co ftd nn $10 in 1914 Oil and Gas Co $5,700 $10 in Trapshooter Oil, . . .$4,200 So far you will admit this proposition is different from the usual stock offer. It is clean, legitimate, fair and square where you have the opportunity of learning the whole truth where all investors are treated alike where we all win together or lose together where there is a better than usual chance of mak ing big money. The Company's methods are open to the closest scrutiny. Its organization, its directors and officers may be thoroughly investigated.

Our leases here are well within the area of new test wells and a gusher here would mean thousands perhaps millions to our stockholders. - Property "B" Wilbarger County 140 acres in three leases, one of 80 aeres and two 30 acres each. Many experienced oil men and eminent geologists be lieve that the oil sands here are directly eonncted with the immense produc ing sands of the wonderful Burkburnett and North West Burkburnett Exten sion pool districts, and predict that this is a continuation of one or both of these pools with enormous production. Property "C" Where Wa Are Now Drilling 25 aeres in Wichita County south of the town of Electra 700 feet from Good wells. The world now knows of this county as being one of the Giant producing counties in which is situat ed the Burkburnett original development. Everybody interested in oil knows this district to be a phenomenal producer. Will you be one of those who will have a real interest in the way of money returns? Note You probably know the close proximity of these properties to the various locations where other wells are now drilling and many spouting oil where hundreds of wells have been brought in including Gushers shooting up thousands of barrels a day (See press reports here quoted You probably are hearing of these big giants that go over the derricks frequently now).

Reynolds, president of Con tinental and Commercial Bank, Chicago, saya truly t "Nobody can make a fortuna by saving money from a salary or from wages. I think I have never accomplished anything big in my life that my friends have aot urged ma to take a different course." We get a start by saving but wa ean multiply our savings only through investments. Those nros- per.
