WITH BUNCO.

Walter Hooks is again i'm limbo.
this time for getting money under false
prctenses and with purloning a suit
of clothes. This is not the first time
Walter has been in court ON such Il
charge.
He will be remembered as the man
who impersonated a plumber and took
a pocketbook containing thirty dollars
belonging to Mrs Grocnleaf at the res.
idencc of J. r. Pennington some time
ago. Hooks managed TO get out OF
this scrapc by playing crazy. or some
other kind of stunt.
About a week ago he undertook TO
rcplcnish his finances and under the
name OF Foster he secured small
amounts from several drug stores and
soda fountains. His plan was 70 run
iu and say he was Foster. the zee
cream maker at the dairy. there being
man of that name there, and ask
for two or three dollars. saying he did
not want TO go clear back TO the dairy
for It. All the stores he asked knew
OF Foster. the ice cream man and did
not hesitate to let him have the
amount he asked for, but Hooks. alias
Foster never showed up any more. H.
also took a $25 suit of clothes from an
employee at the dairy called Red
and never returned IT, Red saw his
suit on Hooks last Sunday at the park
and started chase, but Hooks. who is
fleet of foot. hit the tall timber and
got away. In fact he has been able tc
elude the officers on several occasions
by his sprinting ability
Yesterday Officer Bill Ikard caught
him at the depot and landed him II

troubles TO Judge Gait in the munici

Editor Ardmorcite:

liyercd sermon last Sabbath against

sit up and take notice, SO much notice
I'm fact that one of our ladies can

were all against it. Mrs. T.. thinks il
she had asked hundred that the
answers would have been the same
Down with Sunday baseball.
Now. we think they take selfish
view Of the matter The preacher
says that the baseball following is a
crowd Of toughs Every body knows
that this is not true, especially is this
not true Of the players of base ball in
the smaller towns as they are taken
from the ranks of the young business
men and from the best families in any
community II they are toughs and
rOwdics they should not be- patronized
on weekdays and If they are not, what
is the harm to play on Sunday?
The ladies seem to think It is alright
and they say that they enjoy the game
on weekdays but that it Is wrong 10
play on Sunday and that it should be-
stopped Most women can go In the
weekdays TO a game for they have no
duties TO attend 10 at this time of the
day but how about the men? DO you
know many men that are working for
their wives and children that can get
on in the weekdays TO attend a ball
game? Then is it fair 10 these mor
TO stop this pleasure for them?
II any lady thinks It is wrong TO z,

her conscience hurts her for SO doing
then we think 1t is best for her not tC
go But if her husband or boy wants
10 go we think that she should be un
selfish enough TO let them do so witt
