Adhere 90 Schedules.

Adhere 90 Schedules.
From the Lincoln Nebr) state Journal
Are railroads under any obligation to
run their trains on the published sched-
ules? Or is Il fair to fasten sqeh an
obligation upon them. Oklahoma, our
new frontier Of reform. answers yes TO
both questions. II is proposed to order
the roads TO furnish fun and accurate
information OF the running Of trains in
order that the public may know what 70
expect. This at least seems reasonable
The practice OF the roads has been to
assume that the people could not stand
the strong meat OF truth. When a train
is seven hours LAKE intending passengers
are told it IS three When they appear at
the end of three hours they are advised
that IL will be one hour more. At the
end OF one hour they discover another
extension. and so are let down easily, but
to their great Inconvenience. Oklahoma
travellers propose 10 know the truth in
advance. Furthermore. when train is

road is required 10 send out special
train on the published schedule.

such experiments The Oklahoma railroad

Knew Lord BYRON.

1t is believed that the last surviving
person who had a speaking acquaintance
with Lord Byron died a few weeks ago
In Sydney, Australia. She was ninety
eight years old. the widow Of a British
army officer and Colonial official, but a
native OF Greece. Katarina Piessos was
born in Missolonghi In 1909. The great
English poet was a frequent visitor at
her uncle's house during his residence
I'm that place in 1923 and 1924 Katarina
was practically young woman at four
teen years old-Levantine girls mature
eariy-and Byron took a fancy to her
OF course he filed a large space IN her
young imagination. He was the national
hero of the time, he was a poet; he was
handsome. and. as she always said In
telling OF her acquaintance with hiln. he
had a fascination of manner that no one
could resist. After Byron's death. in
1924. the Plessos family became the OBJ
jects OF political persecution and had to
flee from Missologhi TO Kulamos, one of
the Ionian Islands then under British
rule. 1t was there Katarina met Capt
drummer, who had fought all through
the Peninsular campaigns and been pres
ent at Waterloo Though only sixteen
years old she became his bride in 1926
