CRACK BANK SAFE AT TAHAMA
AND QUIETLY MAKE GETAWAY
DOWN ARKANSAS RIVER.

ing quietly into town in a skiff on the
Arkansas river, robbers before day
light this morning cracked the safe

securing $4,000. Slipping quietly back
to the river before the job was dis
covered, the gang slid away down
str, am n the darkness to ovade prs-
sible pursuers, after cutting adrift all
boats moored at the landing.
Boat loads of men secuted the river
in both directions in a vain attempt
to apprehend the robbers, and most
of the searching party returned late
tonight after giving up the pursuit.
Entrance was made through the
rear of the bank and three shots of
nitroglycerin blew the big safe to
pieces, wrecking most of the furni-
ture in the room. The robbery was
not discovered until the men had sew
eral hours start.
Tahama is a small town on the river
in a fine agricultural region, and the
bank there usually carries a big sup
ply of currency.

PLAN To MOVE
BLIND SCHOOL
NEGOTIATIONS ARE PENDING TO
MOVE INSTITUTION FROM FORT
GIBSON TO MUSkOGEE.

Nluskogee, Okla, March 12.-Nego-
tiations are now pending to move the
Oklahoma State School for the Blind
from Fort Gibson to Muskogee al
once and not wait until the state
completes its new buildings.
There are eight pupils in the blind
school who are ready for regular high
school work, and it is to place these
in the Muskogee High School that
the move is contemplated now. These
pupils will take their places right
alongside those who can see and take
the same studies.
The state legislature has just ap-
propriated $4,000 to build the new
buildings at Muskogee. Twenty acres
of land has been donated for the
site and as soon as the governor signs
the bill, which he has stated he will
do, an architect will begin work on
the plans and it is hoped to have the
new buildings ready for occupancy
by January l, 1914. In the meantime
it is proposed to lease the old Spauld-
ing college building in Muskogee and
transfer the blind children to that
place.
The school for the blind is strictly
an educational institution and in the
statute creating such an institution it
is specifically stated that only chill.

and allie to perform the t,sks for
which they are fitted, though blind,
shall be admitted.
There are now 200 such blind chill
dren in the state, and it is expected
they will all be gathered into this
school when the equipment is ready.
There are now 16 teachers and 81
pupils in the school.
When it reaches its maximum ca
pacity there will be forty teachers and
employees, and require an annual
budget of $4,000. The
limited attendance at this time is due |
10 the fact that the present buildings
are full to their capacity and no more
pupils can be taken.

That Wind!

What wind? Why, the wind today
The wind which comes from the north

shoots you round the corner, meets
you half way, slaps you in the face,

bad wind, for bad wind blows some
good to someone sometimes and II
this wnid has blown any good to any
one this time it haa not been heard

This particular wind has been blow
ing hard all day. We say "this par
ticular wind advisedly, because it
is the same wind that started in and
tried to blow the sun off the face of
the heavens just as he crawled out OF
bed this morning. Ever since then
it has not been blowing in one direc
tion long enough to get out Of the
country. 1t will whip up from the
south for about forty minutes, but
turns back at the Kansas border and
gives us another swipe, twisting in
so that it will smite one on the other
cheek upon it's return.
The only good thing that this wind
has done so far is never to repeat it.

off from the same side of his head

The money was in large leather wal

There is absolutely no clew to the
