NIGHT LETTER TELEGRAMS.
twenty-five Cents is Now Charged
For Fifty Words.

On Monday, March the seventh, the
Postal Telegraph Company and the
Western Union Telegraph Company
began TO render night letter service
between all offices OH their lines, and
the lines of their direct connections
In the United States.
Messages of the new class will be
known as night letter telegrams.
They will be accepted at the offices
over the counter or by telephone in
the usual way. The charge for night
letter telgrams of so words or less
will be the regular day rate for ten
words and one-ffth of this rate for
each additional ten words or less.
They must be written in plain Eng
lish. Code or cipher will not be per-
mitted. They will be accepted for
transmission at night and delivery at
destination on the morning of the
next ensuing business day by mail
or messenger at the option of the
company.
These companies have a large un-
employed mileage of wire at night
which is not earning anything. These
wires must be maintained in any event
to take care of the regular day bust
ness, and the idea of the new interests
in the telegraph compay is to let the
public have the benefit of them.
A night letter sent by telegraph
will reach its destination at the open
ing of business hours the following
morning, thus saving as much as three
or four days time when other methods
are employed.

MuSLogee Has a Club
'"'' Meet Daily Train Off Obesity.

Muskogee. Okla.-Society matrons
and buds who are inclined to obesity
have organized a Roller Club" here.
They are getting so thin their rela-
tives and friends are alarmed. The
fad is spreading, too.
Everything fat and feminine here
is on the roll. They roll before
breakfast, before luncheon. before
dinner and before going to bed. Con-
stant rolling over the floor may wear
the nap off the carpet. but that mat
ters little so long as it wears the fat
off the roller.
The founder of the roller cult is a
pretty widow who, until she rolled
her superfiuous flesh off, was one of
the stoutest creatures west of the
Mississippi. Her friends and asso-
ciates noticed she was losing flesh.
At first they were alarmed, fearing
her health was breaking and that the
