sembly. will decorate for Christmas
and timely warning to all parties in
terested may have the effect to pre-
vent serious fires and loss Of life.
c. 7. ingalls,, manager Of the Ok
lahoma Inspection bureau, has sent
out the following Christmas warnings
for stores, churches, bazaars, homes,
etc. which are deserving Of care
full consideration by all Tusans:
Fire Warning.
Light inflammable decorations
make fires easy to start and easy to
spread. A match, a gas flame or an
electrical defect may do 1t.
Watch gas Jets! Decorations may
be carried against them by air cur
rents.
Watch smokers! Do not permit
them to light cigars inside buildings
Do not make the slightest change
In electric wiring without consulting
electrical inspector.
Before attempting any hasty, or
ill-advised decoration which may
cause fire, examine your insurance
contracts and see If the policies con-
tain anything like this:
This unless policy unless other
hereon or added thereto, shall be void,
etc.-"lf the hazard be increased by
any means within the control or
knowledge of the insured"
If you burn, you want your in
demnity; do nothing therefore TO i'm
pair your contract.
Do not decorate your Christmas
tree with paper. cotton, or any other
irflammable material.
Use metallic tinsel and other non
inflammable decorations only, and
set the tree securely so that the chill
dren in reaching for things cannot tip
it over.
Do not use cotton to represent
snow. If you must have snow use as
bestos fibre.
Do not permit children to light or
relight the candles while parents are
not present. They frequently set fire
to their clothing instead The tree it
self will burn when needles have be-
come dry.
Do not leave matches within reach
OF children at holiday time. Candles
are meant to be lighted, and if the
children can get matches they will
experiment with them. They initiate
their elders.

Carmen says he tore the wire net
ting from the window and Freebure
broke the window, reaching in and
unfastening the catch.
Carmen entered the store and then
let Freeburg in through the door.
Several lights were burning In the
store, but Carmen says they made q
screen of a clothing rack and behind
this they worked in perfect safety,
packing four suit cases with 16 suits
of clothes. Freeburg also took his
time and picked out four shirts, the
right size, but later two of them were
thrown away near Delaware.
About o'clock Sunday morning
the two men attempted to board an
empty coal trian going south. Car
men got his two suit cases filed with
clothing on the train all right, but
Freeburg was unable to catch the
train. Carmen says he let the clothes
go on and went back to the Kelly
place and gathered in six more suits
These were also packed in suit cases
and were hidden i'm an old threshing
machine i'm the yards of the Ohio
Tractor works.
Carmen then relates that they
caught another southbound Hooking
Valley train and got to Columbus with
16 suits of clothes. One suit was
taken to a pawnshop in Third street
and disposed of Sunday afternoon
The boy says they also arranged tc
sell the rest of the clothing and later
did dispose of 1t to various people
his share of the proceeds coming tc
about $25. which he claims Freeburg
did not turn over to him.
While they were Laying low" in q

Carmen says, was cleaning a revolver
which was accidentally discharged
the bullet entering his back just above
the right hip, and he was taken to ST.

mains too weak TO be brought to
Marion for trial.
Freeburg was picked up by Officer
Masterson about two weeks ago and
when arraigned waived examination.
He claims to be % years of age and
isn't very definite as to his place OF
residence, claiming to have worked
in Denver. ''
Carmen will be used as a witness
against Freeburg. should the latter
decide to fight his case, after the
grand jury gets done with him.
Prosecutor Justice says the confess
sion was obtained from Carmen with-
out duress or promise of reward, and
was seemingly made because the boy
had been so near deaths door as the
result of his bullet wound.

SPOILED JOKE FOR WILLIE
And Now the Youngster Is Convinced
That Woman Have No Sense
of Humor.

Willie is convinced that women
have no sense of humor Willie Is
seven, and he judges all women by
his mother. What he considered a
splendid joke occurred to him, and
he resolved to make his father its
mute and admiring witness or audi
tor.
Mamma" said Willie, when papa
comes home I'll climb up on the step
ladder and pretend to be doing some
thing to the picture. Then you say;
Willie, what are you up to?' Then
I'll say: up to date Won't papa be
surprised"
Papa came home in due time and
was hardly seated before Willie drag
ged in the step ladder and climbed up
to a picture. This was mammals cue
to ask the question that would give
Willie the opening for the joke. So
mamma hurriedly asked:
Willie, what are you doing up
there?"
Willie turned look of disgust, cha
grin and disappointment upon his
mother, climbed down the ladder and
left the room without word.
