REMARKS FROM TIE PuP.

She's taught me that mustn't bark
At little noises after dark,
but Just refrain from any fuss
Until I'm sure they re dangerous.
This would be easier. I've felt.
If noises could be seefi or sFnelt
She's very WISE I have no doubt,
And plans ahead what she's about,
Yet after eating every day
She throws her incest bones away.
IL she were really less ebtuse
Shed bury them for future use.
But that which makes me doubt the
most
Those higher powers that humans
boast
rs not SO much d fault like that,
Nor yet her fpndnesa for the cat,
nut on dur pleasant country strolls
Her dull indifference to holesl
Oh, II once had time 70 spend
re reach d hole EXTREMIST end.
It'd grab II fast, without d doubt,
And promptly pull II inside ont.
Then drag II home with aIlsxny power
TO chew on It In A Leisure hour
OF all the mEstresses there are
Mine Isl the loyeliest by far
Fafn would waE myself apart
III could thus reveal my heart,
But on some things, : must conclude,
Mine IL the saner attitude.

COUPLE HELD UP AND ROBBED
AND WOMAN OUTRAGED
WHILE OUT WALKING
OFFICERS KILL UNKNOWN MAN
Believed that the Guilty Parties Have
Been Arrested Feeling Runs
High

Special to the EXPRESS
Fl Reno, Aug. 3:-Last evening
a man and a woman were held up
and robbed by two tramps while
out walking on the railroad. After
the villains had stripped their vic
Tins of everything, they carried
the woman to secluded spot and
criminally assaulted her. The man
made his escape, and came to town
and reported to the officers who
started Immediately for the sc-ne
of crime.
As the officers were passing a
box car in the railroad yards a
man jumped out and started to run.
Thinking he was one of the parties,
the officers commanded him to halt
and on his failing to do so, they
shot, mortally wounding him.
Later the two men who are
thought to have committed the
crime were captured about a mile
west of this city and were landed
in Jail. The man who was killed
and all others connected with the
affair are strangers here, Much ex-
citement prevails over the affair.
The killing and arrest occurred at an
early hour this morning. One of
the parties in Jail gives his name
as McEwen.

WILL BE ADJUSTED SAYS PRESI-
DENT MINIS OF THE PIONEER
COMPANY HIS STATEMENT
THE PIONEER is IN CONTROL
OF the 7. & E., Having Purchased
Majority Of StOck-WiIl Install
Central Energy.

President Minis of the Pioneer
Telephone Co., which recently &C.
quired a majority of the stock of
the Topeka & FL Reno Telephone
Co., was in the city Yesterday look
ing after telephone matters. He
appeared before the city council
and made a statement as to what
the Pioneer expects to do for
Chickasha.
Among other things, President
Minis said. "You people have been
fed on promises so long, that I
don't feel like making any more
promises to you. l want to say,
however, that the Pioneer acquired
control OF the Topeka & Fl Reno
system on July 10 and the next day
we ordered material 70 rebuild and
improve the system here as well as
the toll lines. We can't fix it all
at once. but We ough. 20 be able
TO give material relief in a short
time; so far as the city system is
concerned, we should be able to
give relief al once. Our intention
later on is to install the central en-.
ergy system but this will take sew
eral months. We have placed an
order for the equipment but the
manufacturers are crowded with /
orders and It may be the first Of the
year before we receive il. This
equipment is very heavy and it
may be nece ssary for us to erect
building TO contain il.
The toll lines need the most at.
tention and we already have force
at work stringing copper w.re d.
rect from Oklahoma City. Hereto
fore all the toll line business has
been handled through FL Reno and
the business was too heavy to give
prompt service. We shall string /
copper wire to Lawton and also
one to Hobart and we hope to have
all these lines completed before the
fall business begins. It is very diff
ncult to get competent help In this
work and this handicaps and delays
Us, but we are working just as fast
as we can. This country IS grow
ing so fast that it is hard to keep
up with 1t. We realize that the
success of our business depends up
on satisfying our patrons and we
shall do our best to give you the
service you want and deserve
Mr.. Minis stated that. in addi-
ton TO the district manager, three
new trouble men would 20 to work
at Chickasha today. The office
force would also be increased so
calls could be answered promptly.
He said the 7. & <. company had
been trying to handle the business
on too economical a basis.
Mr.. Bezdecheck, the district man.
ager, was also here yesterday, start
ing the work of improvement. He
admitted that Chickasha had been
receiving miserable service, but
said the Pioneer wasgoing to spend
money to put the system in good
