w. S. K. Hillhouse, of Bartles-
vile, l. T., Victimized.
Draft, Check and Money Gone
-Four Men Hustled Him On a
Train, and When He Felt
For His Pocketbook 1t
Was Missing.

Four thieves at the Union depo
at Kansas Oity Tuesday night rob
bed w. X. 8. Hillhouse, of Bartles
VILE, l. T., of his purse containing
small amount of money, draft OF
a Kansas City bank for 81 900 and
deposit check for S215. The
manner in which the robbery wal
committed indicates that the foul
men were professional crooks
Mr.. Hlllhouse, who is 70 years old
did not know Of his loss until the
thieves had been gone an hour or
more. While there is no hope Of
catching the thieves, the police
hope to stop payment on the $1,000
draft and the deposit check.
Mr.. Hillhouse. feeling himself
growing too old for active bust
ness, sold out his bakery for $1,-
800 and left to JOIN his wife at
Webster City, Iowa. He arrived
In Kansas City at $50 O'Clock and
had 10 wait until 9;35 for the Burl
iugton train. -Four confidence men
noticed his venerable appearance,
saw him pay for his ticket from q
roll of bills, and Immediately spot
ted him as prospective victim.
Mr.. IIillhouse started 10 get on
his train. Suddenly a young man
appeared In front OF him; fright
this way, sill; you only have q
second more" The young man
Jumped on the coach platform and
tried the door, which was locked.
just then someone called out "hur-
ry up" and four men seized the
old man, hustled him on the plat
form and left him. He stood for
a few moments, thinking what
funny world this is, then went III
side the cor and took a seat. An
hour later he felt for his pocket
book and it was gone. Then he
realized the cause of the strange
actions of his new found friends.
He Immediately not fed the police
who made diligent search for the
men but could find no trace OF
hem. They took immediate steps,
however, to stop payment on the
iraft and deposit check, and the
lid man has hopes OF saving the
greater part of his wealth.

TO GUST THE MAYOR.
ohickasha Medical Society After
Mayor ScofferL and City
Physician East.

The Chickasha Medical Society
is after the scalps of Mayor R. f.
Scoffern and City Physician t. H
East. Before the United States
District Court yesterday Attorney
r. D. Melbourne, acting as counsel
for the Chickasha Medical Society.
filed junction proceedings to pre-
vent Mayor Scoffern from receiv-
ing any more salary, to compel
him to return that all eady received;
to declare the ordinance creating
the Office Of city physician void.
and to compel the city physician
to return Sl75 city scrip received
as salary.
The instrument also asks that the
city attorney be eDjoined from re-
ceiving any further fees, that the
police judge be enjoined from
turning over . the city attorney
any further fees, and to enjoin the
city collector from receiving any Of
the above mentioned scrip In pay
ment os taxes. The city council
is also party to the action.
The suit is supposed to be an
outgrowth Of the municipal row
which has been on ever since DR..
East was appointed city physician.
The end is not yet, either.

Not to Tell the Time Of Day, But
the Arrival and Departure
of Trains.

j. f. Snapp, an Advertising so.
licitor for the Rock Island railroad
who has been spending the past
week in the city on business, has
just issued one of the neatest end
best advertising schemes ever
seen in Chickasha, the printing for
which was done by the Daily Ex-
press.
Mr.. Snaps novelty is in the
form OF railroad time card, con-
sisting OF dozen or more printed
dial plates, covered with circular
sheets OF cellnloid and furnished
with movable hour and minute
hands. These dials indicate the
arrival aud departure of each train
and are so arranged that they can
be made to accord with every
change in the time card.
The value OF the novelty was
Immediately noted by many of our
citizens who took advantage of it
and contracted for space on the
card. Mr.. Snapp has wisely copy
righted his scheme, and patent is
now pending. However. he does
not care very much whether the
letters are issued or not, as he has
a good job with the company any
how, and the time card is only a

A POOR SYSTEM.
City Council Should Name the
Streets and Number Houses
in Chickasha.

Neafly every DOuy rehllzts INT
Ohickasha is a new town, and tina
improvements are the result of I
system Of evolution. Everything
can not be accomplished at once
and Innovations and changes fol
the better only cohe with growth
development and experience. Bnl
there are one or two little matters
which should be attended to with
out delay; not only for the COL
venience of our citizens, but for
the benefit of strangers and other
visitors as well. These matters
are within the province the prov
OF the ty council, who should in
vestIgate them and take action at
the earliest possible moment.
A chief source of annoyance just
at present Is the absence Of names
and guide posts from the street
corners, and numbers from the
houses. Everyone knows how diff
ficult it is to find out where Smith
lives by being told where the resi-
dences OF Brown and Jones are
located. Ask citizen where his
hom Is and nine times out OF ten
he II answer. swell, you go this
way (poiniing) five blocks, then go
west until you come 20 Mr.. Tomp-
kin's house, then turn north and l
live in the thirl house from the
corner. Oh, anyone can tell you
where it Is; you can I miss it," No;
If you have lived in Chickasha all
your life, and know Tompkins, the
probabilities are you will Gnd the
place AL right. But What kind of
a direction would that be to give a
sirangeri And hundreds OF strang-
ers com to Chickasha every day.
Chickasha has eighteen school
buildings scattered all over the
town. She has twenty teachers,
and until the schools formally
open there is no way of dCtermin-
ing how many scholars. All these
teachers and little children live
somewhere. aud their names and
places OF residence must be record
ed. This is going to be no end of
trouble. Many of them do not
even know on what street they
live, let alone the number OF their
house. When some little tot is
asked where she lives she should
be able to answer promptly,

designers and Builders Who Had Vivid
Imaginations
In the neighborhood of Stamford
street, in the southeast of London,
there Is a chimney shaped after the
likeness of a huge coffin. II is made up
of dark-colored bricks, and presents
an appearance which is gloomy to the
point OF depression. This quaint cree
ton, curiously enough, is well nigh
unnoticed by the inhabitants of the
district, many of whom are quite
unaware of its presence in their midst.
A small music hall in a southern city
OF France Is decorated with a chimney
shaped to resemble a a The figure
is attired in frock coat and silk hat,
while a huge metal tube, painted
brown and representing = cigar, re-
ratus. From this "cigaI" the smoke
issues in great black clouds, and so
realistic is the whole contSvance when
regarded from the street below h a at
first sight the spectator is led to believe
that n ~fashionably attired gentleman
Is enjoying n weed on the theater roof.
Curious chimnoys abound in all quar-
ters of the globe. In several American
cities II is no M occurrence to
encounter wine TASKS. the base of the
erections being swathed in straw-col-
ored woodwork to resemble the baskets
wherein such TASKS usually recline.
Perhaps, however, one of the most pc
culiar chimneys in the world is that
which is to be seen in a Roumanian
township. and which is known by the
name Death Funnel" 1t represents a
skeleton some fifty feet in height, and
is built throughout of gun metal. Tho
shaft Is conveyed upward through the
spine of the figure and the smoke is

tably. a CHASTITY chimney, and n
would have imagined that the eccen-
trio millionaire who thus adorned his
roof top might have hit upon some less
gruosome means of enhancing his repu-
tation for e~xtravagant whimsicality.

weather was very cold-cold enough to
freeze tight all the ordinary watering

animal might be thirsty. He called IL.

though water famished. He left the
next day, thinking no more of the
matter. Six months later he was
again in the house. Notwithstanding
warm weather and water in plenty, the
cat, at sight of him. leaped upon his
shoulder, purring and m%aiouing, until
