It Is Said That Negotiations Are All put Closed for Public UtiIit'ee sno Cooper Brothers Propert%'

That the new passenger station oi tne Iron Mountain railroad to take .he place of the one destroys n 'he fire of September ,, will fc 2e Nal ,ern avenue, and the station proper occupy the property formerly occupied hy the Public | 'hties Company is a we'll defined rumor in business cir cles that it is said is only awaiting definite announcement when tSe nrso- tii ions for the property arr ;oniplet- ed.
 The report also brings in that the Cooper Brothers stable property will pass to the Iron Mountain railroad, to be given to the terminals and oth- CT necessities adjacent to passe1- ger station.
 Since the fire the location has been the subject of much comment, since there has always been doubt that the railroad would rebuild on the place the other depot stood. That was not inaccessible, but the other property was so much better fitted for depot purposes. that immediately after the fire the Business Mems League made a move to encourage the Rock Island and Iron Mountain to join in gen eral union depot on the property.
 The move for a union station did not make much headway, the Rock ls land railroad showing where it would put that line to a very great addt tional expense, and also cause that line to lose a whole lot of valuable property that it now holds

 Lyman was the proprietor of sa- loon in Mena He said that two we'll known professional men came into his place and proposed a game of poker Lyman demurred that they mi sht get into trouble, but the othes insisted. Ridley was also induced to join in the game. Before starting, Lyman said, they made an agreement that in case they SNOuiu Dt tdlltu DtloIt tNt EIdHu jury all should "lie like gentlemen, % and declare that no poker had been played.
 ater all weer summoned before he grand jury, as Lyman had feared. Ly- man and Ridley kept their agreement, and declared that no poker had been played. Lyman and Ridley declare that their companions, the supposedly respectable professional men, confess ed to everything and later took the witness stand and helped to convict Lyman and Ridley of perjury For their testimony, the others were set free.
 Both men were paroled from the penitentiary last September Neither could leave the state under the terms of his parole and as this worked a hardship on the men Gov Hays de. cided that both had been sufficiently punished and gave them their abso- ute freedom as a Christmas gift.

SAFE AND SANE"
 XMAS IN THE SUUTH
QUlETEST AND MOST ORDERLY HOLIDAY IN YEARS RESULT
 OF STRINGENT RULES.

Atlanta, Ca, Dec 25- Champions of safe and sane" Christmas in the South tonight were iubilant because Of the apparent success of their ef- folts.
 Reports generally indicated that the celebration had not been attended by the loss of life and property which frequently in the past has character ized observance of the day.
 In most Southern cities rigid reg ulations governing the use of fire works and firearms in connection with Christmas celebrations have been enforced with the result that ac. cidents were few
 At New Orleans campaign against the careless use of fireworks brought good results. A similar campaign at Birmingham, Ala, resulted in the quietest Christmas that city ever has seen.
 Many industrial works there were shut yesterday and today, but there was no disorder
 Reports of an exceptionally quiet Christmas came from virtually every city in Texas. At Dallas there were no serious accidents. Snow at Mem phis, Tenn. provided a white Christ mas. unmarred by disorder or serious catastrophe. Louisville, Ky, in the throes of a sleet and snow storm, re- ported a Christmas singularly free from accidents. Atlantas safe and sane camapign resulted in the quiet est Christmas ever observed here.

An unexpected crime wave which
swept East Hammond over Saturday
night and Sunday resulted in the ar
rest of fourteen jewellers on charges of
intoxication assault and battery, pub
lie indecency and carrying concealed
weapons. The police patrol continued
to stir up the dust between the Gem

One case in particular was called to

blows inflicted by her drunken husband
Mrs Gajeski appeared before Judge

POSTAL SAVINGS
BANKS CHECK
SENDING ABROAD
international Money Order
Business Drops $12,
100000 in Year.

Washington. Feb. 10.-The establish
ment of postal savings banks resulted
in keeping in this country last year
$4,000, 900 which otherwise would have
been sent abroad, says the postmaster
general The total deposits of the 49,
600 postal savings banks in this coun-
try are approximately S35.000,000. Be-
fore the establishment of the banks
the international money order business
amounted to $685. 900 a year. and
was growing at the rate of s17.oo0.o0
annually. Last year it only reached
50 Z, O00, 900.
Officials of the Postoffiee Department
say comparatively little money deposit
ed in the postal savings banks has
been withdrawn from private or ma
tional banks. Instead the money has
come from hiding places.
1t has been demonstrated. the postal
authorities say, that IL given the OPP
portunity of depositing their money
with the government the foreign borr
residents will do in large numbers
rather than send their savings abroad
| for deposit.

ing deemed necessary for the season,

@se sentiment is preponderousfy in

satisfaction last year than could have
been gotten out of water. Further
more, the streets improve each year

teriorates them. While oil is little
more expensive than water the differ
ence is slight. and in the long run oil

To start with she is pretty and well
costumed and then she is one of the
best whistlers that has ever been heard
in this city. She sings well and has
some clever limitations. Her versatility
makes her the hit of the bill.
The Bodini Brothers will take the
place of the act which was held OVER

said to be very good. A new picture
will also be shown today
Yesterday was the first day of the
