FREIGHT RATES
On Local Shipments Out of Yinita
VIII Soon be Reduced.

j. H. Doughty, division freight
agent Of the Frisco, arrived in the
city yesterday departing for South
McAlester today. Mr.. Doughty
states that the Frisco intends to
grant Vinlta jobbers local rates to
the new territory south of Sapulpa
and, in fact, all the territory west
of this city, that will enable them
to successfully compete with Jop-
lin and Neosho job5ers. ''The
new territory opened by the Fris-
co extension" said Mr.. Doughty,
'legitimately belongs to Oklaho-
ma City and Vinita. W. are now
engaged in compiling new sched-
ules and local tariffs, in fact, re-
ducing the rates wherever posi-
BILE, because of the advantage the
road will gain by the Miami con-
nection. Vinita will have new
and better local rates but l doubt
if we will be enabled to inaugurate
them before the completion of the
Miami-Afton link, upon which
work is being rapidly pushed"
When the new rates are estab-
lished the Springfield Grocery
company will erect a new build
ing and warehouse in this city.

A MARSHAL IN JAIL.
DE Facto officer at Bristow Threw
His Rival in the calaboose.

Nate Hildebran, who claims to
be the town marshal of Bristow,
is in the calaboose in that town.
Today through Attorney Daven-
port, he sued out q writ of habeas
corpus and prays for his release
claiming to be unlawfully restrain
ed. The order was issued and
made returnable before Judge Gill
next Saturday.
Judge Gill appointed officers to
serve at the recent municipal cleo
tions including Bristow. Mayor
p. D.. Scott ignored the order and
appointed officers of his own and,
with his party, held an election of
their own. The opposition party
recognized the officers appointed
by the court; made their returns
as required to Clerk Davidson and
received certificates of election.
When they went back to Bristow
the Scott party refused to turn
over the offices and the de iacto
marshal, J. N. Churchwell, arrest
ed the claimant, Hilderbran, for
carrying a concealed weapon and
threw him in Jail.
1t is thought that Judge Gill will
take some action to punish Mayor
Scott and his officials for ignoring
the order of the court.

The most contemplate deed that
has ever been perpetrated upon the
people Of Gilt Edge and all loyal citi-
zens OF the country occurred last
Thursday night, Sept. -, the day OF
the burial Of President Mckinley.
The postmaster had a large picture
OF the president In the postofiice,
draped Ia mourning. and the door OF
the Office outside well covered with
Grape and the flag Mt half mast. On
opening his door In the morning he
found the flag rope cut about SIX and
one-half feet above the ground, the
flag being down. The Grape was
torn from the door. A few shreds
left were tackled to the door Of the
Gilt Edge Mercantile Company's
store. An angry crowd was soon on
the spot and had the perpetrator
been found there would have been a
few moments Of excitement. Many
OF the people have strong suspicious
and are fast weaving "A web around
him. While 1t IL well known that
there are socialists here who are law

perpetrated that deed IL so low and

you are tray cling in Russia during the
summer you will find it an easy matter
to pay visit to the greatest fair In the
world. The rates Of fare are quite low,
special excursion tickets being Issued
at reduced prices during the progress
of the fair, but you must not expect the
comforts of a journey by rail that you
find at home.
No easy running sleeping car In which
to nap away the night, no Pullman In
which to lounge during the day. but
uncomfortable seats upon which you
must curl up for slumber as best you
may. AS for the cost of the journey,
the prices of the excursion tickets men-
toned were as follows last year: St.
Petersburg via Moscow and return.
60.5O rublcs first class "a ruble Is about
II cents. $500 rubles second class and

the railroad traffic incidental TO the
fair may be gained when 1t is stated
that at times the number Of people
within the fair grounds is 100000.

STORY OF A CALF'S TAIL.
A rip That Was Given on n Decision
by Justice Harlan.

by Justice Harlan.
A good story is told Of the clever
manner In Which Justice Harlan man.
aged to give a tip on the insular de-
cIsIon to his golf friend. Solicitor Gen
-eral Richards. About an hour before
the court met on the day the decisions
were handed down Justice Harlan
walked into Mr.. Richards office at the
department OF justice. He said he was
on his way to the court.
"Some important business todayT
remarked the solicitor general.
"Say," replied the big justice, "did
you ever hear the story Of the calf and
the knothole down in Kentucky"
Mr.. Richards confessed he had never
heard 1t, but would be pleased to listen
"Well," said Justice Harlan, pausing
TO take another chew Of tobacco, two
men were going along by COW pen
one day. and they saw calfs tall
sticking out toward them through q
knothole in the fence. That Is a Won
derful thing said one of the men. L
don't sec anything wonderful about II,
replied the other. It's nothing but a
calf's tail sticking through knothole.'
Well, sir, persisted the other, L have
Travelled all over the world, and I've
never seen more wonderful thing
than that What In the deuce is so
wonderful about itY asked his friend
What is wonderful about 1t? What Is
wonderful? 1t Is this: How in the
name of the great horn spoon did that
calf get through that knotholeT"
Justice Harlan had a good laugh at
his own story, and as he went away to
the capitol the solicitor general turned
to his assistant and remarked:
"The court is for the government,
and Justice Harlan is In the dissent"
While Justice Brown was reading the
decision of the court In the De Lima
case, in which the government lost on
q minor point, Justice Harlan kept his
eve on Solicitor General Richards.
There was a merry twinkle in It. FL
nally he called a page and sent a note
down to his golf companion. who was
sitting soberly at bar. The note read:
"Now you see the calf's tail"
At this the face of the solicitor gen.
eral frightened a little, and he went
out into the lobby and told afternoon
correspondents they would make a
mistake If they sent out reports to the
effect that the government had lost the
case. When he returned to the court
room. Justice Brown was reading the
majority opinion IN the famous Downes
case. Justice Harlan's eyes were still
twinkling. In few moments, before
Justice Brown had reached the .plth Of
his decision, another note came down
from the bench to the now happy solic-
itor general. 1t read:
"Now you see how the calf got
through the knothole. e."-Washington
Cor. Chicago Record-Herald.
