Deputy Sheriff Ed Ario has decid-
ed to get a new bloodhound and
with this end in view he will leave
for Omaha the coming Saturday night
to see what be can find. If possible
he wishes to get a southern, or
Cuban dog that will bay when follow
ing the trail The dogs that belong
to the county row follow the trail
fast but do SO without baying and. it
is impossible for those who are assist.
ing the officers to keep UP with
the men that are holding the leash,
so that the man with the dogs soon
gets separated from the aid that ia
sometimes needed at the finish of
the chase.
At Belle PLANE yesterday Mr. Ario
followed a great deal of the trial
in the dark and while the strain of
following the dogs was enough In
itself. 1t was necessary for him to
shout all of the time so that the
posse could follow him. A baying
dog could be turned loose and follow
the trail alone and make enough
racket SO that the officers who fol-
lowed would not have to so through
such a strain. Mr.. Ario said that he
would like to purchase dog that
"eats EN- alive" The present dogs
will not harm anyone but the south.
ern dogs are often. Very fierce and
will attack a person after they have
run him to the end of the trail.

had experiences on my way
That 1 wish TO explain TO you.
The first place ! went was Portland,
The beer city of the Northwest
And met people there from Tulsa,
Who with Portland were sadly i'm
pressed.
They had left here TO seek fortune.
Like most of us do who leave home;
But they said IL they got back to
Tulsa,
They'd never again want to roam.
From Portland I went to Frisco;
very gay time / had there,
For the people to Frisco are coming
For the nineteen and fifteen fair.
| also met friends there from Tulsa,
who sighed pleasures nothing TO me,
And II ] ever get back to Tulsa
III remain there-you wait and see.
From Frisco went down to Fresno,
Where a white man is scarcely seen.
There was nothing there of import
ance
But orange trees and lawns nice and
green.
And ] left there that night for Los
Angeles,
That we all hear so much about.
And / pictured while on my way
down there,
Things l would see on my route.
! got theer the next morning early,
And found It quite the same as lots
others.
There were girls and boys in that
city
Who were thinking of home and
mothers
Among these was one in particular
That told me with tears in his eyes,
They can all have this country that
wants it,
But I'm Tulsa I'm going TO reside"
He said 1t Is only a short time,
And ! can go to my babe and wife:
If were only there this minute
I'd give most half my life.
I soon got enough of Los Angeles,
After I'd been there a while.
There was all kinds Of amusements,
But they never even made me smile.
50 I left there one night soon after
And the desert | had to cross.
1t was sure hard old juorney,
But | got in El Paso at last.
And I can sure recommend FL Paso
As the dullest place ! was in
For there was nothing there but
MeXicans;
There's no chance there for white
men.
And I came up by Okla City,
which the undertakers have got.
People going down there from Tulsa
All come back in a trot.
And I came on up to Tulsa
1t was beautiful sunshiny day;
I didn't get a look at Sapulpa,
There was a signboard in the way
Now I'm giving II TO you straight
folks,
Though guess you'll all have to
see,
II your homes here you'd better stick
here;
Just accept that advice from me.
