destroying it. was placed on trial IN
Commissioner Butterworth s court at
| 80 O'Clock today.
l.. j. Martin appeared for the de-
Tense and Inspector Emmons watched
the case, for the government.
Thompson French, a member of the
Tulsa base ball team, testified that
certain mail had been found under the
sidewalk grating of the new First
National bank building was his and
that he had not taken it from the
post Office himself. The box in which
he and the other members of the team
got their mail was No. 995, and as he
had been with the team in Muskogee
and South McAlester for six days he
had not drawn any Of his mail from
the Office in that time, neither had he
authorized anyone else to get it. On
Monday Clifford Huckaby told him
that a boy had taken mail from the
post Office addressed to him, French,
and had read and destroyed 1T and

railing at the bank building. He and
Huckabey went down in the base

postal card. He identified the letters
in the possession of Inspector En-
mons as the ones found.
Clifford Huckabey, Is years old,
was placed on the stand and swore
that he accompanied Hugh Langdon
to the post Office and that ne waited
outside while Longdon went in. In a
few minutes he saw Langdon come out
with several >letters in his hand and
reading one. He snatcbed playfully
at the envelope, and saw that it was
addressed to French. He asked Lang
don why he was reading another per-
sons letters. and Langdon tore the
letter and envelope up and pushed
them through the grating. He after
wards told French. Cross examina-
ton failed to break down Huckabey's s
evidence.

person he warned him and let him 60

CLEVELAND'S SEWERS
Work is Progressing Very Favorably
Says Engineer Merry.

u. b. Merry was in the city yester-

o. t., sewer system, said the work is
progressing favorably and is now
well under way There were some
technical errors in the drawing up
of the bonds which created consid-
cradle delay, but these have been
Strengthened out satisfactorily, and
soon that progressive little city will
possess fair sewerage system and
one which will undoubtedly greatly
increase its population.
Mr. Merry said that in the election
held there this week everything went
Democratic, excepting one councilman
and the assessor. There were two
tickets in the field, described by Mr..
Merry as Bird Mcclure and Dem
ocratic ticket, and the majority in
no case exceeded twenty to forty. Five

for future honors on a" sure enough" "
diamond.
The excitement was intense among
the fans who were present III force,
cheering on their favorites and howl
ing eXecrations at the umpire, just
like the bigger boys. If there is any
body that knows more about base
ball than an American "kid" just
trot him out and let us have a look
at him. These boys knew and know
ing did not hesitate to declare them
selves. They howled and hollered
and whooped, and came mighty near
bursting all their Suspender buttons
when Ernest Brock made home run
for the South Enders.
Fourteen to twenty, in favor of the
South Enders, was the score, and
both teams and their friends are
talking about it still.
1t was great game and one the
Oilers would have derived great
pleasure and profit from witnessing.

ANOTHER GREAT GAME
Catholics and South Enders Distin
guish Themselves.

The bows are the men OF the future
and deserve their share OF recogni-
tion at the hands of the newspapers.
The World regards the boys, and the
girls also, as very important members
of the community and is always ready
to lend them assistance in any legit-
innate undertaking they tackle. For
this reason it now desires to tell
about base ball game that the boys
played recently and which was Oh
grea. interest, to themselves at least.
The teams are known as the Cath-
olics" and the "South Enders," and
the struggle between them for su-
premacy in the national game is very
keen, each game being warmly con-
tested and fought stubbornly all the
way through. This particular game
was played on the Catholics ground
and the teams averaged up about
evenly. The batting and the fielding
did credit 70 both sides, and stamped
the players as promising candidates
