Little Problem Is Worse than Pigs
in Clover.

Wherever it may have originated.
and this is itself a matter of con-
troversy, the problem concerning
the ages of Ann and Mary has
caught the country's fancy as few
things have since "Pigs in Clover
Philadelphia appears to be practi-
cally mad over it, dozen other
cities, are wild-eyed, and even far
away New Orleans is joining in the
brain-racking pastime. 1t is far
from the present purpose to beguile
any one into ciphering on the prob
lem, but for the benefit of the few
who may have been confined to the
house with brain fever, here it is:
Mary is twenty-four years OLD.
Mary is twice as old as Ann was
when Mary was as old as Ann is
now. How old is Ann? 1t is per-
picking only because it sounds sim
pie but is really stated confusedly.
For itself, it deserves the waste
basket, but it has secondary in
terest because of the light it throws
on the mental processes of human
beings. The answers give AIMS
age as anywhere from six to twenty.
four years. AS for reasons, they
are as plenty as blackberries. Doz-
ems of people declare solemnly that
Mary and Ann are twins, though
the slightest attempt to prove"
this shows it does not fulfil the con-
ditions of the problem. A man
from the United States geological
sEey who devotes most of his
to the very simple demonstra-
hat the two young women are
nSwins, adopts himself an ans,
wer, sixteen, for AIMS age, which
works out no better. About Mary
and Ann, | think they are eight
years old" says a woman, disre-
garding the first words of the ques-
ton, which state that Mary is
twenty. four. Here is another gen
eral law, laid down by newspaper
reader; If Mary was at any time
in her life twice as old as Ann,

More Buildings at Norman-Railwa>
TO Fort Supplv

Guthrie. o. T.. March 30.-The manage
ment of the sanitarium at Norman has
officially notified Governor Ferguson that
additional buildings will be erected at
the sanitarium, according TO the recon-
mendations made by committee Of ply
sicians in a recent report. Regardless OF
the fact that a bill passed in the Iegisla-
ture and became a law, locating an I'm.
sane asylum at Fort Supply. the new
buildings at Norman will have 10 be eTec-
ted as per the recomme ndations made.
While it has not gone out that il these
buildings are not provided for the war
rants for the next quarter will be held
up. yet such is understood to be the case.
On the other hand, il is stated by
Charles r. Alexander. who is in the
city, that a party of capitalists VIII go
TO Woodward next week to look over
the situation with the idea of construct
ing an electric line from Woodward to
the fort. If a road should be constructed
after the new buildings are erected at
Norman. the sanitarium company would
have to stand for it. even if the removal
of the patients took place Immediately
after the erection OF the buildings.
Members of the sanitarium company do
not believe that a transportation line
will be in operation short OF two years.
Woodward people are confident that a
line will be in operation within few
months and are working 10 this nd.

Unless the attorney general holds other

It is evident that the saloon men are up

BURGLARS
WORK FOR
TWO HOURS
But Fail to Get in the Safe at
Bison.
$1,000 IN THE SAFE
Cashier Did Not Venture Out
on SurmiSe.
$1,000 IN THE SAFE.

Guthrie, O. T., March 30-The State
bank at Bison was robbed Thursday
morning and the Hennessey Clipper gives
the following account in this weeks pa
per:
At an early hour this morning robbers
entered the State bank at Bison, and
after trying in vain for eleven times with
nitro-glycerine to blow open the safe.
they gave up the attempt They blew of
the outside door, but could not get into
the vault. There is no clue TO their iden-
tity.
1t was about 1:30 when the cashier,
Jesse Scritchdeld, heard the first explo-
sion. He surmised the robbers, but of
course did not venture out. The robbers
worked for two hours with their eXplos-
i've before giving up the attempt.
AS a result Of the explosion the Office
fixtures are in q demolished condition.
the windows are broken and spotted
with daubs of mud thrown by the explo-
sives and the room filled with the odor
of giycerine The safe, which is bur-
glar proof, is badly damaged, and a few
small coins were found lying outside.
here was something less than $500 in
the safe. and it is not thought any of
this was secured.
Among the things left were some black
smith tools, which had been taken from
a blacksmith shop in town. and a small
amount of nitro-ggcerine and a syringe
which had evidently been used to insert
the explosive. The knobs of the outside
combination indicated that they had been
broken of before the explosives were
used. 1t is thought that the robbers
were old hands at the business.
Sheriff Kershaw OF Enid arrived at
Bison this morning. but could get no
clue. The description of stranger seen
in town yesterday, carrying a grip was
given, but it is not know if this will
give any clew.
