Secrecy of Present Methods.


Nobody outside Of the European armies now at

ments In what form they building Them for
the engineers of each army are constantly devsing
methods. and these new ideas are not divuged,
In time OF peace But the dispatches tell of cav
airy and infantry running headlong into neshes OF
unyiedng steel thorns that rouse the imagination to
the horror Of the wounds they nflict. One use for
barbed wire that to be is reported from
Belgium There certain roads that 1t was Desirable

but army could not tread such maze and must
halt to destroy II.
while the European armies probably have built
entangements on new plans, description OF how N
ENHANCEMENT might be effectively constructed issued
for the instruction of the British army few years
ago. will give the isyman idea OF the effectiveness
OF such defenses First the ground to be protected
and over which the enemy must pass is laid off In
five-foot squares. At each corner OF each square
post is driven into the ground till eighteen inches re-
main above the surface This system OF squares eK-
tends indefinitely along the line to be defended and
the practice is TO make It six squares deep,
thus insuring ENHANCEMENT thirty feet wide through
which the attacking forces must pass. The wire 10
strung from post to post and fastened with staples.
Then other wires are strung diagonay from posts to
opposite and crisscrossed again and again,
till a network intricate bramble patch stands
high enough from the earth TO throw a horse a
among the terrible steel thorns. The staples not
driven home nor the wires stretched II wires
were taut they could be cut with a sword bayonet
blow As they are constructed the wire gives under
the blow and the only way that has been devised to
get through enlargement Is TO stop and each
wire with nippers. These nlppers carried by sol
diers nowadays. but It Is long Job to get through,
for every wire must be cut at every post Wire BY
tons and posts by thousands are carried with the
armies be II invasion defense general knows
when he will have the enemy behind him In placing
deep grass tall grain fields and hickets
are selected where possible for the effectiveness of
the wire is greater II the attacking force hurs
itself upon the obstruction unawares."

POSTPONED MEETING LAST EVE

ING. ORDINANCE WAS SUBMIT.
TED BY CITY ATTORNEY.

Last night the mayor and city of
ficials attended the circus, and the
regular meeting of the board of city
commissioners was postponed until
this morning at ten o'clock.
Routine business was transacted
and reports of heads of departments
were read and filled. The city attor-
ney at the request of the mayor has
prepared an ordinance covering the
running of automobiles with mufflers
open and also to cover the blowing of
horns or other noise making devices.
The ordinance was read, but it was
not strong enough to cover all phases
that the mayor wants to cover, and
the attorney was instructed to amend
it and present it at the regular meet
ing of the commissioners next Tues
day night for passage.
The mayor stated this morning that
he was going to see if there was not
some manner in which he can make
the drivers of machines of all descrip-
tions respect the ordinances, and af-
ter the ordinance has passed and due
notification is given, there will be
stiff fines assessed against any viola
tors of the provisions. City Attorney
Mason promised to have the document /,
ready for passage next Tuesday night |

RAT TTLESNAKE
ATTACKS WOMAN
At WASH TUB
REPTILE, WHILE COILED TO
STRIKE, RECEIVED A BATH OF
BOILING WATER, AND WAS
STONED TO DEATH.

Mrs. Lille Deel, daughter of G.
w. Wood of Dougherty, while doing
the family washing at the spring
house this week barely escaped at
tack from a rattlesnake. While busy
over the tub the monster snake
crawled within few feet of her and
coiled himself to strike. The woman
who was with Mrs. Deel, discovered
the presence of the snake. Mrs.
Deel, instead of becoming frightened
and running, quietly made war. She
first threw bucket of scalding water
on the reptile, and as he writhed
in pain from the boiling water she
pelted him with stones until life
was extinct. 1t measured FIVE and
a half feet in length, and had four
teen rattles, indicating that it had
made its home about the spring for
that many years.
G. W. Wood of Dougherty, father
of the woman, has the rattles and
proudly shows them to his friends.

MURRAY BILL
WOULD ISSUE
CURRENCY
MEASURE WOULD AUTHORIZE
LEGISLATURES TO EMPOWER
STATE BANKS TO ISSUE LIMIT.
ED CURRENCY.

Washington, Oct. 20.-Mr. Murray
of Oklahoma introduced a bill to re-
peal the tax of 10 per cent against
state bank currency, apply the fed
eral reserve system to the states and
to enlarge the power to issue money
Act. Legislatures are authorized to
empower state banks to issue curren-
not exceed the capital stock of the
bank and making all the banks assets
liable in the redemption. The amount
of gold shall be 81 for every SO is
sued. 1t is made possible by state
legislation to issue notes upon any sta
pie product of the field, farm or mine,
when the same is insured against de-
terioration or loss. This portion of
the bill enlarges the operation of the
Aldrich-Vreeland Act, which now only
includes commercial paper. 1t is pro-
vided that under the last authorized
issuance, 5 per cent of the face value
of the notes is to be held in gold
reserve for redemption. Added to this |
the state authorizing the banks to is
sue notes shall guarantee them.
This is the Scotch system of bank
ing that is now in operation in Cana
da," said Mr.. Murray. 1T was under
the same principles that the New Or
leans State Bank was organized, and
which in the midst of the Civil War,
when notes of the confederacy went
to nothing, its currency was worth par.
Likewise the Missouri State Bank and
the SuffuX State Bank of New Eng
land held their paper at par under
the system l propose, while green
backs went to AZ cents. Both of these
banks were taxed out of existence.
Under this bill the Southern States
could take care of the cotton crop
without trouble. 1t prevents an infla-
ton of currency"
