The announcement that q new theater will
be built In the course OF q not very long
time by the present management Of the Col

speculation as to the future policy Of this

the Messrs. Metzerott. Mr.. o. g. Mstzerott
declares that there Is absolutely no founda-
ton for the story that tho Columbia will be
converted into a stock house. and states
that Mr.. Fred Berger. who takes the Co.

condition that 1t shall play only hrst-class

ICE MANS
TROUBLES
Are a. Numerous as the Sands Of the
Sea Two Sides Of a Story

The ice man is 'born unto trouble
as the sparks to fly upward The
first day the first ice man set forth
upon the earth, he contracted the
habit Of giving short weights and, if
the charges Of the suffering public are
to be believed, his case is an incur

Here Is the story which one Of the
ice mans customers related to the

changed on ice weights at our home.
We never do get as big chunk as
we pay for and when we make a kick
to the man who drives the wagon, he
says he has to short weigh as and he
won't weigh our ice. He says they
send him out with a certain number
of pounds Of ice and he must bring
back tickets for that amount. # he

examination Of the entire body was
then made with the result that none Of
the marks sought for were found.
W. ]. Keith, father Of the Keith
boys who were arrested has received
a letter from Earl Crawford, asking
that his clothing left at Tuttle be sent

father, also stated that he had re-

27 and another dated July 2S, mailed
from a town in Kansas telling Of the
trouble he had had with his wife. MI.
Crawford could not believe that the
murdered man was his son, but when
the message came that the body had
been positively identified he thought
it best to come and investigate.
The clearing up Of the Crawford
matter leaves the murder case as deep
ly involved in mystery as ever. It
is the general theory that the murder
was committed in Oklahoma City by
the same men who were responsible
for the other awful atrocity that re-

about it,
And here is what Mr.. Frank Brown,
the manager Of the Crystal Ice Co.,
had to say when informed as to these
charges. "There's nothing to it what

weigh ice for customers whenever it
is desired at any and all times and
we make a liberal allowance to them
for waste and melting. We fix no
certain amount for waste but are
satisfied if they report any reason
able amount. We are always ready to
answer and investigate any complaint

not buy over two bits worth Of ice
