monstrated at the performance
last night. when the intelligent
little animals went through their
various duties without a hitch,
though it was raining 10 torrents
on the outside and everything In
the tent was noise and confusion.
The show is one OF the best of
it's class ever seen here, and the
two big audiences which packed
the tent at the afternoon and night
performances were pleased and de-
lighted. The show opened with a
grand congress of nations, intro
ducing sixty beautiful little shet-
land ponies bedecked with flags of
the four nations represented.
This was followed by a military
drill in which the perfect training
of the ponies was again shown
Then came the dogs-a small army
of them, of all kinds. ages and
sizes, from little Baby Snyder &c

APPY ALL THE NEWS THE TIME .
THEY HAVE LEFT Us.
Salvation Army Has Abandoned
the Work for the
Present.

Capt. Reason and the ''Singlng |
Brigade" of the Salvation Army,
who have been holding meetings
here for the past month ID the hope
of establishing permanent work
IN Chickasha, have folded their
tent like the Arab, and silently
stolen away to their headquarters
at Oklahoma City for the present.
Capt. Re asor informed an Express
reporter that the army had work
ed hard to establish the work, but
couldn't make it go. "It was in
the hope of getting permanently
fixed here that we held on as long
as we did, said the captain. But
there are several good reasons why
we failed; good reasons, too.
"Rents are very high, and we
would soon be compelled to aban
don our tent and secure hall, and
also stove and fuel, Where the
nightly collection does not average
over 81, and four men have to be
supported from that, you can read
Iily see we would soon be IN debt.
I'VE do not intend to leave for
good, however, Chickashals grow
log, and will soon be metropoli-
tan city, capable of supporting the
work. We have been given much
encouragement by some OF your
enterpIising, progressive citizens,
for which we are very grateful,
. You have splendid town-the
best III the new country and
there is a grand work here for the
army in saving souls and relieving
di .tress. To the good people OF
Uhickasha who so cordi slly assist
ed US, d1 mated funds and encour-
aged our meetings we desire to ex-
tend our heart felt thenks, and as
. sure them their kindly sympathy

Peculiar Action of w. E. Mobley,
a Street Preacher.
II Looks Like an ElOp0mentl

W. Tomlinson. street preacher

Chickash for several weeks past,
and member of an organization
known as "Cnristian Volunteers"

morning AID unfolded story re-
garding w. E. Mobley, a co work

in very bad light indeed.
1t seems that Mobley and his
wife and a widow named Mrs.
Pate came here from Texas with
TomlInson about three weeks ago
TO start the work and beg hole
ling street meetings. At that time
MobIey came 10 the. Express Office
and inserted in the paper short
announcement of what he intended
to accomplish. He met with ia r
success. and a few days later after
getting the meetings fairly under

THE PREsIDENT.s PoLICY.

There is a great deal Of speculation
as to what recommendations the Pres
ident will make in his message. The
! idea is being thrown out that he has
! decided to abandon Wall street and en-
4 deavor to win popularity by making
war on trusts and railroad combina-
/ tions. He believes, it is said, that he
( is stronger with the people because OF
/ his Interference in the coal strike, and
/ his success in bringing the strike 20
an end. than he was before he took a
hand in that matter, and he is of the
opinion that his chances of being elect
ed President in 1904 would be better
by opposing trusts and railroad COM
binatiOns than if he were to follow the
wishes Of Wall street.
OF course his party would lose large
campaign contributions, but the posi-
ton is taken that he could afford to
lose contributions from Wall street If
he could gain the good will of the peo-
pie. BY standing by the protective tar
if he would still have the support Of
the manufactures. and their contribu-
tons for political purposes are great
eT in all probability. than those of the
financial houses of Wall street
1t is said that efforts have been made
by promoters of trusts and railroad
his avowed purpose, but without sue
cess. His experience in the matter of
the coal strike. it is alleged. has con-
WINGED him that he has decided wise
ly. He believes the course he has de-
cided upon is not only the right one,
but the one that viii contribute more
than any other to his election in 1904.
II may be true that the President has
decided upon the policy herein outlined,
but it will not be known that he has
until his message is made public. No
doubt he has talked with the leaders
of his party as to certain features of
his message. but it is doubtful if he
has decided definitely upon anything
yet, although the time for the meeting
of Congress is not far away. He will
be looked upon as a very Independent
sort of a President If he gives no con-
sideration whatever to the wishes of
Wall street, since many of the prom
inent men of his party are interested
in its schemes. Still, II would not be
at all strange If he should take stand
against those who are trying to put
up prices by means of combinations.
He could adopt no other policy that
would make him more friends among the
people. 1t would make him enemies
also. but they would be few in num-
Der compared with the friends it would
make him. Evidently the message this
year will be looked for with keen in
terest.

THE MOLINEUX VERDICT

The verdict in the Molineux case
causes no surprise. Those who have
followed the evidence were satisfied
that Molineux would be acquitted 1t
is probable that he would have been
acquitted if he had made no defense.
The state did not make out a case
against him beyond a reasonable doubt.
1t is true there were circumstances
which, in the hands of a skiliful pros
ecuting officer. were calculated to Gre
ate the impression in the minds of
many people that the accused man was
guilty, but when analysed and care
fully weighed they did not relieve the
mind of all doubt
Some facts were brought out by the
defense that threw suspicion on Cor
nish, the chief prosecuting witness. He
got badly tangled on his cross exami-
nation. Besides, one witness partly
recognized him as the man who mailed
the package of poison with which the
murder was committed. The recogni-
ton was not complete. but there was
one circumstance connected with the
lueHlllCdtlOn WHICH must nave 0aQ
weight with the jury. The wit1iess
said the person who mailed the pack
age wore a brown overcoat. On the
first trial Cornish testified that he wore
a brown overcoat on the day the pack
age was mailed, but on the last trial
he testified that he never wore such
coat-had never owned a brown over
coat
Now that Molineux has been de-
clared innocent, the mystery surround
ing the murder of Mrs. Adams, The
victim of this tragic drama that has
occupied the attention of the public
for four years. is as great as ever
Who mailed the package of poison and
what was the motive of the person
mailing it? 1t is probable that these
questions will never be answered. Mo-
lineux, however, has suffered severely.
He has been in prison four years and
the fortune of his father and his own
means have been spent in his defense.
innocent, and yet the law has held him
in confinement some years of the
very best part of his life, has ruined
his career and made him and his
father poor men. Surely some Nro-
vision ought to be made for compen-
sating such victims of the laws mis-

According to an Ohio college profess
sor all the pictures now in existence of
the scene when the Declaration of In
dependence was signed are historically
inaccurate, says the Washington Star.
The most conspicuous of these paint
ings is perhaps that of Trumbull in
the Capitd rotunda in this city Yet
it is grossly in error if the proof which
this professor claims to have found in
the correspondence of Thomas Jeffer-
son is to be accepted. 1t appears that
Mr.. Jefferson, who had a memory for
details, wrote some years after the
signing of the instruments describing
the scene. He explained the haste
with which the signatures were affixed
by stating that flies had invaded the
assembly room in swarms, coming
from a livery stable across the street
There We're no window screens in
those days. The members, after the
fashion of the times, wore knicker-
bockers and silken hose. Even the
modern bicyclist who wears his
''knickies" knows how disagreeable
persistent fly can be when a leg is the
object of it's attack. Consider then.
the plight of the 'signers'' when the
flies had settled upon their thinly clad
calves by the hundreds. No wonder
they hurried to sign and then to find
respite from the stings of the pests
Just how far this condition affected
their signatures remains for the expert
graphologist to determine Some of
the names bear to-day a decidedly
jerky appearance. as though the writ
ers had been suffering. Now not one
of the painted depictions of the scene
bears the least evidence of the in
vasion of flies, although 1t would APP
pear that those insects played an i'm
portant part in opening the breach
with Britain. Artistic taste may de-
mand the elimination of such uncon-
ventional details. But what a theme
for painter! The saving of Rome by
geese has often been shown on canvas
in heroic style. Why not. then the
quickening of the pulse Of liberty by
the flies?
