Muskogee, okla, March 16.
in the San Bots mountains,
single handed and in the dark,
James Beck, a farmer residing
near Stigier, Ok, captured five
robbers who had robbed him of
$4,000, recovered part of the
money and then made an in
effectual attempt to land his
game in Jail. Two were wound
ed, but all escaped.
Sunday morning the men
broke into Beck's house and es-
capped with his money. Aiming
himself with revolver the far
mer started in pursuit. He
trailed the robbers day and
night, until at dusk Thursday
he saw them enter the San Bots
mountains, 70 miles southwest
of Muskogee. He lay in wait
till darkness covered the rob
bers' rendezvous and when fin
ally the quintet fell asleep Beck
approached yelling: Hands
up, cover them boys~
Leading the robbers to be-
lieve they were surrounded,
Beck forced them to return
$1,000 of his money, all they had
left and then attempted to
bring them to Muskogee to Jail.
Learning that their capture
had been effected by one man,
the men made dash for liber-
| ty. They escaped, but not I'M
til two of them had been shot
and wounded by Beck, how bad

ifs posse is securing the

What the Nickel Did
BIZ CharIes BatteII Loomiss,

Recently $50 the papers telf\u s),
John d. gave waiter a fiye-cent tip
together with some counsel that was
more precious than rubies.
What the waiter did with the
counsel does not matter, but | am
in a position to tell what the nickel
did
1t was a magic nickel, there's nd
doubt of that, because just as soon
as the waiter could get into his
street clothes after his arduous days
work was done, he hurried out into
the street and with that nickel he
bought rosy checked apple for a
pallid checked little girl who was
shiverlng on a corner.
(Why should pallid checked lit
tie girls shiver on corners when
there are lots of area ways into
which they might crawl and be
comparatively warmO
Now, no sooner did the apple ven
der get the nickel than he felt i'm
PEELED to run up to the corner and
drop a quarter in a Salvation Army
tamborine. Then he gave the nick
ell in change to a prosperous look
ing man who was on his way to the
ferry.
The minute the banker (for ii
was banker and rather close
one) felt the nickel, the charmed
nickel in his pocket, he deliberately
turned away from the ferry house,
although his boat would leave in
two minutes and there was not an
other for ten minutes and walking
to a near by market he said in a
voice that he couldn't help making
pompous, although he was not feel
ing pompous at the time DO you
know any poor person in the neigh
borhood who would like to have a
turkey?"
The market man was a jolly
rudy faced, broad jowled, square
shouldered man with a hearty, rum
bling laugh, and he said why, ev-
cry poor person in the neighborhood
would like a turkey"
The banker scowled, but just then
his hand went into his pocket and
touched the nickel and immedi-
ately he said; How many turkeys
have your"

marketman. hoping for the words

lips of the banker.

you sure may" said the mar
ketman. It'll come to 1880"
The banker handed out crisp bills
that he himself had signed that
day; nine fives, a quarter of a dol
lar and the nickel.

boy to load up his wagon with the

pers had dropped in the mud and
Ahad been run over by an automo-
,Nbile, What did the marketman do
but pay the boy for the papers,
handing out the magic nickel, to-
gether with ordinary coins.
OF course, the very second the boy
got the nickel he stopped crying and
ran up the street, having it in his
mind to give the bright nickel to
the same girl who had received the
apple.
His intentions were of the best
but as he reached cut to hand her
the nickel it slipped from his cold
fingers and disappeared down the
sewer.

more contented with the world (be.
cause a whole apple is very filling
if you're not absolutely on the
verge of starvation) thanked him
and ran home, and he ran to the
news office, and the nickel was swept
out to sea.
It's great pity the nickel was
lost, but it only goes to show how a
single good deed like the giving OF
the nickel to the waiter can bear a
lot of fruit.

Alfalfa.

hlIdilds
1t should not be forgotten that
the spring is the proper time to
plant the alfalfa crop that is to be
planted next fall. The ground
which it is expected to use for this
crop should not be planted in cot
ton, neither should corn precede
alfalfa, because the ground will not
be kept free of weeds and grass.
The best preparatory crop for al
fnlfa is COW peas; then after the
vines are removed or plowed under,
the ground should be we'll broken
and kept clean of weeds and grass
by aurface cultivation until 1t is
seeded in alfalfa the following fall,
Peanuts may be grown instead of
COW peas, If the crop is considered
more desirable, as 1t perhaps is, but
they must be kept well cultivated
and especially allow no crab grass
to grow in the crop. We have not
yet succeeded with alfalfa at the
Troupe station, and yet we have
not made an entire failure, and will
try 1t for another year or two, with
the hope Of finally making it sue
cess in that locality.
