a TOWN BOOMING TRAIN.
Wouldn't $4,000 Worth Of Newspaper
Space Have Been 6etter2


Recently III business men of Tulsa,
Okla, made grand tour of the east
In a special train, the object being to
advertise the attractions and CONNER
clal advantages OF Tulsa to the gen
eral public. The train carried n BRASS
band and printing outfit. dispensing
music everywhere and publishing
daily paper for free distribution along
with the music. The paper told of
Tulsa's greatness. In half dozen or
more of the big cities. Including New
York. the Tulsuns stopped several
days to spread the gospel of publicity
The novelty Of the town booming iden
attracted considerable attention
Not every small city. OF course, con-
tains enough business men who are
willing to contribute their time and
money for such publicity proposition
! 1t is understood that each of the Tulsa
men paid his own way. the cost to him
being about $3.50. No doubt most of
the men enjoyed the trip and gained
ideas for future profit to their own
business as well as to their town. But
there is another side to the shield
which is pointed out in an editorial on
the subject in the Editor and Publish
,eF of New York: ~
1.-THE committee having sfTH charge
the Tulsa advertising expedition esti-
mates that the cost OF the trip VIII be
about $4,000. III this amount had
been spent In legitimate and intelli-
gent advertising in the newspapers
how much more good 1t would have
done! Thirty thousand dollars win

APPEARANCE OF TOWNS.
German Plan Of Competitive Prizes
Suggested to 1eautify IL.

:
Americans can get many ideas from
their neighbors across the waters, says
the Southern Architect. the latest be-
Ing to beautify. their towns by the
practical method for Improvement by
architectural aid.
In America the plan has been to or
ganize city beautiful, clubs. The
clubs have done wonderful work in
upbuilding the towns and cities In the
United States. Taken In conjun tion
with the German idea, which is most
excellent. still greater improvements
could be made.
An interesting phase OF the German
policy Is revealed In the prize competi-
tion offered recently by the authorities
Of a Saxon town ii Germany. The
town council invites architects to sub
NIT suitable plans for the front of resi-
dental and business edifices. Four
substantial prizes are offered for the
most successful competitors, and other
projects are to be purchased If deemed
desirable. These plaps win be placed
freely at the service OF property own
ers.
1t Is hoped by this means to combat
unfortunate and all too prevalent tend
encies on the one hand toward monot-
onous uniformity, on the other toward
the baroque and grotesque.
The idea is certainly one which II in
telligently carried out should eventual
" improve materially the general ap-
pearance Of the towns where 1t Is in.

Its editor was uncertain
about the result of the adop-
ton in 1903, but he has seen
that the law can be enforced

Dunklin county is better off
without saloons than it was
with them. He is not going
to engage in any wild and
reckless statements, for the
purpose of whipping any
one into IA support of local

this without the hope of re-

Communicating with the battleship

ship fleet off the coast of Washington
state, the united wireless stated at
Chutes park last night received news
that the war vessels are experiencing
the toughest weather they have en-

struggling against a heavy wind and
tremendous seas and that slow progress
is being made AS far as was learned
by the local operators no damage had
been done the vessels.
Electrical disturbances In the air
made communication last night rather
uncertain. These disturbances are due
to heavy storm prevailing all along
the north coast. The photographic

WOMAN ARRESTED AS
SHOPuFTER; $1,000
HIDDEN IN STOCKING
Large Sum Of Money Found In Possess
sion Of Observation-Disclosures She Is
HysterIcaI-Store Declines
to File Complaint

With $7561 on her person, Mrs. Lily
South Bunker Hill avenue, was arrested
on the charge of, shoplifting in Jacoby
Bros store yesterday.
The articles she Is accused of steal
ing are one white silk shirt waist, val
ued at IS; one pair of long elbow gloves
valued at So, and one fancy belt, valued
at $3. The manager of the store Is said
to have caught her as she was attempt
ing to conceal the goods about her
person. She was detained in the office
of the store until central station was
notified. Detectives Hosick and Zeig-
Ter placed the woman under arrest.
When such "a large sum of money
was found In Mrs. Thomas clothes the
police began to make efforts to prevent
the filing of a complaint and to keeI
the affair quiet.
AS a result of Capt. Auble's efforts
the proprietors of the store decided tc
file no complaint and Mrs. Thomas was
allowed to return to her home.
Had Large Sum of Money
On the way to the station. after being
arrested, Mrs. Thomas protested she
had never done anything of the sort
before and that she could not under
stand now she happened to take the
things from the counter.
The surprising feature of the case
came when she was searched by the
matron. Roll after roll of greenbacks
many of them crisp, new ones with the
original bank wrappers around them
were found In her stockings. The bills
ranged in denomination from IS to the
500 certificate. 1t took Desk Sergeant
Willard Smith twenty minutes to count
the pile of money placed before him.
Mr.. and Mrs. r. N. Thomas reside
at the Alta Vista, 259 South Bunker
Hill avenue. Two months ago they
came here from Arizona. They have
one daughter, who less than two weeks
ago was married at Long Beach. Mr.
Thomas is a manufacturer of smelters
for mining purposes.
When Mrs. Thomas was brought to
the station she said she was Ill and
was treated by DR.. Huff Of the receiv-
ing hospital staff. DR.. Huff said;
Says Woman Is Hysterieai
"There is no doubt that Mrs. Thomas
Is not at present in the best of health
She is subject at times to fits of hys-
teria. and 1t was during one of these
seizures, I believe. that the thing oc.
CURED. / do not think she knew what
she was doing at the time.
II have known many lses of like
disorder which were equally inexpli'
cable. You cannot call her klepto'
maniac. for she has never done thi!
sort of thing before and she will prob
ably never do 1t again. In some kind!
of nervous disorders an impulse comes
upon a patient to do an absurd thing
which is well-nigh irresistible"
Mrs. Thomas was detained at th'
station but a short time. Accompanied
by her husband and Capt. Auble sh'
left the station.
Later in the day Mrs. Thomas daugh
ter was seen at their residence.
