HELD UP
AS FAST AS
THEY ARRIVED
Daring Masked Robbers in an
Oklahoma Store.
GREET THE CUSTOMERS
With the Proposition That 1t
Is the Real Thing.

Watonga, o. T., Nov. 16.-On last
Thursday night. while Chase and Ian
Get were sitting in their store at Butte.
Dewey county, about seven O'Clock, two
masked men entered the house and told
them to throw up their hands. Seeing
that the fellows meant business and
that their guns were ready for action,
Messrs. Dewey and Lancet complied
with the robbers commands and threw
up their hands. After the bandits had
taken what money the men had in their
pockets, one of them demanded to know
where the money till was. Mr.. Chase
pointed it out TO him and the fellow
walked around the counter and went
straight to the till. just as if he knew
all about it. In all the robber secured
about SO from Chase and Lancet. 4
young man who lives in the neighborhod
entered about this time He was told to
throw up his hands. He did so and was
relieved of S1eo. All parties were then in
vited to go outside, which they did. And
when they reached the outside of the
house another citizen of the community
came up. lie was told 10 throw up.
Thinking it was q joke. he did not com
ply until Chase told him it was the
real thing" when up went his hands,
and he was searched. but the search was
not thorough and but little money was
found on him.
The outlaws were masked. They both
wore black coats and black hats and each
weighed about $50 pounds. One was
about five feet nine inches and the
other about five feet seven inches in
haipbt They left the stora on horses
a grey and the other was a roam.
Such an outfit had been seen in camp
about two miles north of Butte and they
had a wagon with a blue bed and five
bows. The robbers were very careless
with their guns and threw them around
in peoples faces in a reckless manner
They were prabably amateurs in the
business.

MISSOURI BREAKS HIS HEART.

The Sanitarium Directory,

we SGIltldlANHl Iii CCAOi y
Guthrie, Q. r., Nov. 16-Jacob Admire,
of Kinghsher, in commenting on the SAM
tarium matter expresses himself as sat
isfed save in the fact that c. S. Jobes.
of Kansas City, is a stockholder. Ad-
mire writes:
Honorable J. R. Cottingham, being pa
thetically appealed to, lets the cat out OF
the bag. and tells over his official sig
nature who holds shares of the capital
stock of the Norman Insane Sanitarium
Asylum. Their names are as follows:
DR.. F. I. Winkler, Norman. o. T; J. c.
Robb, mayor of Kingfsher; II. H. Wat
kins, president Bank of Enid; Henry E.
Asp, attorney of the A, T. & S. +; +. II.

National bank. Kansas City; J. r. Cot
neys. The officers of the institution are:
T. L. Winkler. president; J. r. Getting
ham, secretary; J. c. Robb. treasurer.
That's a pretty good crowd of fellows.
There are eight of them. We can't zee
why these eight men should not own
dozen Sanitariums if they have money
or credit enough to buy them. Nov why
these eight men haven't just as much
right to go into the Sanitarium business
as any other eight men. Why not these
eight own a Sanitarium as wei as DR..
Threadgill? No one ever fused about
him because he was making too much
money. except Frank Greer. There are
a good many fellows who are mad be-
cause they didn't get in of course, but
a thing like this, no matter how good it
is. must not be spread out too thin. or it

Note.-We do object to the Missouri
man. He has no right whatever to share

THE ROAD TO TROY.
An Important Matter to Globe and
 Her Interests.

On last Friday President Garland of the G. ", c. & N. railway, accom- panied by B. F. Pascoe and AnJone rrojanovich of the Satford and Globe Lumber companies, made a viewing trip over the wagon road between here and Troy, in order tO get better idea of what would be required to make a first class wagon road to chat point. The trip was mace somewhat hurriedly and only rough estimates were made. The better route would be the longer, which would be via Fl Capitan, being d distance of about 2S miles, but the road could be put in shape so that wagons could haul all they could hold up both winter and summer, while by the present road the distance is only 23 miles, but the road is much rougher, the grades harder and some times is impossible in winter. The cost oi the route via EI Capitan would probably be between s5, ,000 and SS, ,000, although most of the work could be done with blows and scrapers, there being only about one-half mile of rock work along the entire line, but this road once completed would be a good and lasting one.
 It is stated that the Troy Copper company are willing to contribute liberaiiy towards road, and it is thought that President Garland might be induced to do the same, while it is a part of the duty of the supervisors of this county to aid in the matter of good roads, which practically leaves the matter in the hands of the busi- ness men of Globe, who should push the matter along without any further delay, for if nothing is done from this end quickly, the people on the other end will soon have the matter set. tied, as they are now acting, according to the following statements from the Florence Blade and a Kelvin cor respondent, which say:
 Supervisor J. c. Heating and En- gineer A. T. Colton returned Mon.

day from viewing the proposed new road between Kelvin and Troy. They were joined at Kelvin by Supervisor Thos. N. Wills and proceeded thence to Troy, covering most of the inter- vening country on foot. They sue ceeded in finding route over which good freight road can be constructed on ground ab ,ve the reach of freshets, and at no point along the line will the grade exceed F per cent The cost of the road would probably be about S2,- 600, but the Troy company will prob- ably meet half the expense. General Manager Cutting of the Troy Copper company, informed the supervisors that if they would direct the county surveyor to survey the road, set grade stakes and prepare a careful report as to the number of cubic yards of earth and rock to be removed, his company would cheerfully pay one half the ex- pense incurred. We are satisfied the board will make the necessary order at their next regular meeting. For tunately We have board composed of level-headed business men who are quick to recognize the necessity for good public roads to all parts of the county and the benefits resulting from this class of pubic Improvements"
 Our supervisors visited our camp this week on their reviewing trip over the proposed Troy road They made the trip, returning very tired and reti- cent. yet we hope for the best, as the Troy company propose to do their part in building the road. If our coun- ty cannot do her part in this matter, then let us quit and let the business go to Globe"

LOOKS BAD.

There appears to be wide differ euce of opinion between our Phoenix correspondent and the Daily Enter prise as to facts to be disclosed in the forthcoming report of the investi' gatlng committee of the legislature that has been probing the alleged rot tenness in the auditor office and board of control. As the Enterprise IS the democratic organ at the capital and in touch with the Investigating committee, it may be inferred that its statements are made with some degree of author ity, and If so, the case looks bad for Governor Murphy and Auditor Wick CTS. The Enterprise alleges that the emergency fund of S6, 250 to pay for the return of criminals who escape from the penitentiary, patients from the asylum, for the publication of proc lamstions, election notices and other necessary expenses has been drawn upon by the governor for various and sundry purposes not rightly chargesble to the emergency fund, until the fund now looks almost like the proverbial thirty cents, there remaining in 1t but S1 II. Most of the warrants were paid direct to the governor and his private secretary, the Enterprise alleges, and many of the items are reproduced iu print. It certainly looks bad for the governor and auditor, but perhaps it would be we'll to await the committed report before passing judgment.

Death of Joseph W. Teal.

Ii becomes our sad duty announce the death of one of the good men of this community, Joseph w. Teal, who died quite unexpectedly at $50 o'clock Tuesday morning from a sudden at tack of pneumonia. He had been working on the Tip Top No, ? mine, on the windlass, when on Sunday the Sd of this month, he injured himself in drawing one of the men out of the shaft, after the fuse had been spit in some shots, having felt the injury before the bucket was landed, and it was with the greatest effort that he was able to finish the task. He did not return to work the next day, but was not feeling badly enough to stay in bed, although occasionally he eXpec- torated blood. On last Monday he ate his dinner as usual and laid down on the bed. Shortly afterward those present noticed that he was uneasy, but he said he was all right, when in few minutes, Sbentf Thompson en- tered the room and was much alarmed at his condition. MT. Thompson im- mediately went after a doctor, but by the time the doctor arrived be was unconscious and remained so until his death. The doctor after an eXamina- tion told the friends present that he could live but few hours. A tele- gram was sent to a bi iother, Frank F. Teal, at Stafford, who arrived about half past ten. but it was too late as Joe was still unconscious.
 Joseph w. Teal was born in Phila delphia, Pa, in lS49, and at an early age went before the mast as sailor, which vocation he followed until 1878, when he came west to Oregon tO visit his brother who was then residing there, and has remained in the west ever since. As a sailor he travelled all over the world, and was well in- formed about the land and sea, but unlike most sailors he was of a very mild and even disposition, not being given to the rough and disipated ways of most men who follow that life. During his life in this vicinity he was not known to have spoken i'll of his fellow man, and to have always been kind, generous, sober and peaceaOle; an honest, upright. good citizen, and worthy companion.
 He and Bud WoodSon worked and lived together for number of years, during all which time not an angry word passed between them. He came to Gluoe in 1891 from Wilcox, where he had been engaged in stock raising, prospecting anu canal building with his brother. Since coming to Globe he has been engaged in prospecting and mining, and now owns an interest in mine mile or 80 east Of town: also some interests in mines on the strip. His mother, father and younger brother stlll reside in Philadelphia, his father being in feeble health at the present time.
 Frank P. Teal is one of the leading contractors and builders of the Giia valley, being located at SaffOrd. He feels deeply grateful to his brothers friends i'm Globe, of whom he finds many, and was greatly touched by the expressions of regard for his brother among them. He will have suitable monument erected to hls memory. The funeral took place on Wednesday afternoon and was attended by large numb Der of friends and acquaiutances.
