GIANT RECRUITS
COME TO AROM0RE
FOUR OF THE BOYS SOLD
TRANSFER is UNDER AN oP.
TlONAL AGREEMENT.

The Dallas News says: J. w. Gard
ner yesterday announced that he had
made arrangement to send Catcher
Buster, First Baseman Onslow and
Pitchers Hinton and Trammell to the
Ardmore club of the Texas-Oklaho-
ma League. These men will leave for
Ardmore tomorrow or Saturday.
All of these men showed such ex.
cellent promise that Mr.. Gardner
wanted to place them with a club un-
der an optional agreement and with
man who is capable of teaching
them further information about the
game. Emmett Rogers was willing to
take them optionally and he Is the
man who can develop them.
Buster, the Texas catcher, looked
like great ball player during the
first ten days of his training season.
However, he became i'll and was new
er able to show his ability. Fans
who have seen him work expect him
to be back in the Texas League be-
fore long.
Young Onslow is probably the most
promising young ball player of all the
recruits brought to Dallas this spring
He shows speed and great fielding
ability and is a fair hitter. However,
he needs much seasoning before he
can hope to compete against such
men as Forsythe, and he is willing to
get that experience. Hinton and
Trammell look to be good pitchers,
but not quite experienced enough to
crowd out some of the other men on
the staff.
The departure Of these men leaves
the following Giants on hand:
Standardization. Murphy, Kel-
ly and Gibson.
Pitchers - McAdams, Torrey,
Hirsch, Munsell, SAKE, Debold, Phil
lips, Evans, Myers and Hogue.
Infielders-Forsythe, Mag. Ems,
Fulmer.
utfielders-Thebo, Pittman, Tul-
los, Williams, Glasson and Freeman.

out blow today when both branches
of the Alabama legislature adopted

THEFT OF STOCKS AND BONDS.
Mystery Surrounds Theft Of Secur-
tiles From Armour Box.

Kansas City, Mo-, April 5.-Stocks
and bonds to the value of 100000
were stolen recently from a safety
deposit box in this city owned by
Mrs. S. B. Armour, widow of the late
Simeon B. Armour, of the Armour
Packing company, and sold it was
learned today. All but a few thous-
and dollars has been restored to
Mrs. Armour and no prosecutions will
follow.
None of those who have acted as
advisors in the case for Mrs. Armour
felt at liberty today to make pubic
the name of the guilty person. The
theft came TO light through purchases
made with money derived from the
sale of the stocks and bonds.
The tonds we're taken from the
safe deposit vault and the same were
negotiated through brokers in Kansas
City. 1t was the custom of the person
who took the securities to send them
by a negro messenger to the brokers
with a note asking that they be sold.
The brokers who sold the securities
believed the money was being used
by Mrs. Armour for charities and that
she possibly was hiding her gener
osity in that way. Mrs. Armour IS
76 years old.

Snake Negroes Have Man Of Iron
Nerve to Contend With.
George Paschal who was appointed
constable of the Berwyn township to
succeed Steve Cole, deceased, has
rendered his resignation to the board
of county commissioners. The resig-
nation was accepted and John d. Cor
bett was appointed in his stead. Cor
bett is the man who surprised the
bad negroes of the Washita by taking
one OF their scalps and by lining up
every other negro in town and having
him searched. He is a quiet, unas-
suming, gentlemanly fellow with a
cool head and a steady nerve and the
Snake negroes have taken in Berwyn
their last time. The whiskey traffic
will be stopped in that little city and
the quietude that belongs to Oklaho-
ma civilization will settle like pail
over the negro population and they
will not refuse to give in their taxes
and will not be so handy with their
Winchesters any more.

TIMELY TALK ON
ICE DELIVERY
II. e. FOSTER TELLS HOW GUS
TONERS MAY AID DRIVERS
THIS SUMMER.

The path of the ice man is by no
means strewn with roses, according
to the statement of H. +. Foster
manager of the Ardmore Ice, Light
& Power Company.
For example, there's the matter
of service. How many patrons OF the
Ice company ever stopped to think
how much must first be done before
the crystal cakes of GOODNESS can
be brought to their back doors or
placed in the refrigerators on their
back porches? Just at this season,
when the demand for ice is at its
lowest, the men and horses must
start out with their loaded wagons
not later than 600 o'clock in the
morning. This means that the men
must be astir and the horses fed
not later than five o'clock. In the
summer the horses are fed as early
as four o'clock and the loaded wag
ons must leave for the days business
by five o'clock.
Don't take it to heart, says Mr.
Foster, "if you hail passing ice
wagon and the driver refuses to stop.
Perhaps he is going away out in
the edge of town to start from 4
given point where the beginning of
his daily route is found. If he is
late at the starting point, he will be
late at the home of every customer
on the route and as result there
is general complaint and dissatisfac-
tion among all the patrons in that
part OF the city. The man would
be glad to accommodate you, bu;
he is under strict orders and not
allowed to stop short of his starting
place. Other drivers will be along
to provide you and your district with
fee at the regular hours.
Another thing many people for
get, is that it takes time to place
the ice in the refrigerators. Too fire.
quently the ice man must take the
time to remove a lot of fruit or
milk or some other thing that has
thoughtlessiy been left in his way,
before he can place the ice in the
chest This of course only causes
more delay and the next customer
is waiting impatiently and wonder.
ing why the ice man is so slow.
Maybe his own ice box is in the
same condition.
For the convenience of our pat
rons we have coupon books, so thai
the patron will have no trouble in
having the change for the driver
or asking him to wait until tomor
row to collect for the ice you receive
today.
mo driver is allowed to sell ice
for credit and the patron can be of
great assistance if they should be alb
sent when the ice man arrives, by
leaving coupons at the refrigerator
for the desired amount of ice.
We would also consider it fa-
vor if patrons would report to the
management any discourtesy, short
weights or any, other irregularities,
as it is our aim that all our drivers
should be gentlemanly in their treat
ment of our customers.
mo driver is authorized TO sell
either ice or coupons for credit-eith-
er must be paid for on delivery"
