Davis of Muskogee; Tom Spencer
alias Montana Slim; Walter Spen
Ger, Bob Wortham. Buck Burdolf and
Thos. Meek were arrested Monday as
being members Of the gang which
held up and robbed the Katy limited
at Wirth, four miles south of Eufau-
la, on the morning of October 20, and
robbing the express safe of large
amount of money. Some of the men
included in the arrest have been
suspects from the start and Davis,
Burdolf and Workman were at one
time in custody but were released
after a hearing before the United
States commissioner at McAlester.
The arrests made were on warrants
issued by Judge Gross of Eufaula, and
the officers responsible, while not
giving out much definite information,
say they are absolutely certain they
have the right men and that one OF
the alleged robbers not only turned
up part of the stolen money but has
made a confession.
1t is understood one Of the Spen-
GERS made the confession and that
he told complete story as to how
the robbery was committed.

WHY THE MULE?
M. p. Jarnagin, Professor Animal
Husbandry.

A mules work in ten years IS
worth about $500 A farm draft mare
and her progeny are worth in ten
years more than $1,000. Then why
the mule?
You pay 5000 and more for mule
Raise a horse from your own mare,
and you will have netted saving OF
s125 to start with. Then why the
mule?
The value of the mare and her prog
eny in ten years as given above, Is
estimated on the basis that she VIII
produce half horses and half mares,
and will foal the average number OF
times, and furthermore that her work
will be only two-thirds that OF the
