NORTH BOUND SANTA FE PAS.

TWO YOUTHS ARE ARRESTED
Near the Scene and Brought to This
City-Both Boys Deny ihe

No. 20 yesterday afternoon, Jack Bu-
cey, aged y years. and George Moy-
crs aged l3 years, are in the custody
of the Federal authorities in this city.
The two boys were arrested Tuesday
afternoon at Marietta and brought TO
this city today. 1t is alleged that
they attempted to wreck north bound
passenger train No. 20 Tuesday even
ing about a mile south of Marietta
by placing a spike on the tracks.
Their arrest was made on complaint
of the engineer who saw the boys
watching the train as IL hit the spike.
That the attempt was unsucc .-sful is
due only to the stretch of straight
track on which the train was run.
mint at the time It struck the spike.
The train was running at the rate OF
about thriry-liyo miles an hour and
had it struck the track ON any other
than IA straight track would have been
plunged from the tracks.
1t is alleged that as soon as the
train struck the spike the conductor
saw the boys, and susrecJing them of
having placed it on the tracks noti.

his suspicious. The marshal went i'm.

other spike on the tracks when he
found them. They were arrested held
at Marietta last night and brought td

Norvell. Mr.. Norvell has the spike

CAN'T GET ROCKIES.
In This City-Too Much Work to be
had in Other Lines Of Business
at the Present Time to Sc
cure Enlistments.

Although an army recruiting sta
ton has been maintained in this city
for the past two weeks, so far there
has been no enlistments. There does
not seem to be much readiness on
the part of the young men OF this city
and surrounding country to join the
army. Several applications have been
made, but no actual recruits accepted.
Ardmore has always before been con
sidered a good field for securing r.
cruts and recruiting Offices stationed
in Ardmore heretofore, have received
a number of rockies. Whether the
young men are at present engaged in
other pursuits which present a more
promising future, or whether they
have not yet awakened to the fact
that there is a recruiting station here
is not known but the fact Is the sta.
tion is doing very small business.
