The total receipts from the enter
tainment given by the teachers and
others for the piano fund was s101.15.
The expenses amounted to only 1888.
Thus leaving $92.52 to apply on the
pianos. It is the intention Of the
teachers to raise enough money to
complete the payments on the pianos.
When school opened a little over two
years ago the school did not have any
kind Of a musical instrument.
Through the efforts of the schools
and the teachers there will be added
over $1,000 worth Of property all Of
which was badly needed.
The present efforts on the part Of
the teachers is not undertaken as a
pleasure. Our teachers are over
worked and under paid. To have
tried to have raised this money BY

down, to say ] never saw better work
or witnessed better results under any
thing like the Disadvantages than here
in Chickasha.
The writer came to Chickasha from
much larger city back east where
the school system was the pride Of
the town. Yet he can truthfully say,
after watching the results in each Of
the towns, that chickasha has the
better school system.
There are two methods, .or ways, of

work being done in the school room;
one is to visit the schools and watch
the work, the other is to observe the

DEPUTY MAKSHALS GO AFTER A
BAD Niger AND HAVE
BAD LUCK
BORK HAD 4 NARROW ESCAPE
Bullet Passed very Near Hin Party
Wanted for Horse Stealing.

Deputy Tom Burke and Jim Park
ley returned late yesterday from the
Womack neighborhood where they
went in quest Of Eunich Logan who
is wanted for stealing horse from
his father-in-law Goldsmith. They
came back without their man but
with a thrilling experience which
nearly cost Mr. Burke his life.
Logan is Greek Indian negro and
reputed to be very dangerous citi-
zen. When the officers reached the
neighborhood they We're met by Gold
smith and plans were laid to capture
the man. Barkley and Goldsmith adj
vanced towarl the house from one di-
rection and Burke in a buggy driven
by negro boy was to come in an am
other side. AS Burke reached the
top Of divide, he saw Logan on
horseback hundred yards or more
in front of him and at the same time
saw Barkley and Goldsmith a con-
siderable distance on the other side.
Barkley called ia Logan to halt and
about that time a bullet whizze1 past
Burke, the pursued evidently think
ing that the command came from
Burke Logan then started up the
creek horseback and Burke following
in his buggy, soois caught sight Of
him with his gun aimed at his pur-
suer. Another bullet whizzed past
Burke's ear and he emptied the con-
tents of his shot gun at the negro but
the distance was too great for it to
prove effective.
In the chase Barlley and Gold
smith lost sight Of the game and
went in the wrong direction but Bufk
followed him up for two miles or
more, being unable to cross the creek
with his buggy, iii ne lost the trail.
Dogs were procured but the country
had been recently burned and Logan
further eluded pursuers by taking to
the bed Of the creek.
The officers secuted the neighbor-
hood till dark and lay in watch till
eleven o'clock when they received
1 word that Logan had been seen by
several parties going in the direction
Of Purcell.

to whether he had not made an agree
ment with Mr. jenkins, former pub
Usher Of the Demosfat, that they
