WESTERN UNION ANNOUNCES
AN EXTENSIVE SERNICI

During the past few years the West
ern Union Telegraph Company has
been in the van of public service cor
porations in putting out new services
10 meet modern business and social
demands. The company now announces
another innovation for the benefit OF
its patrons. The Western Union Com
pany annually transfers BY telegraph
an enormous amount of money and
heretofore the senders Of money have
not been permitted to include in the
transfers any communication Of a bus
mess or personal character to the
payee, such information being re-
quired TO be sent by separate message.
Under the new arrangements. how
ever, transfers between points in the
United States may include such in
formation and the same will be deliv-
cred to the payee at the time the
transfer is paid. This surely repre-
sents an up-to-date service and one
that should appeal to and be Of much
value 10 bushes houses and the pub
lis generally. Through it, people viii
be enabled to transmit money quickly

COLONEL NEWMAN STARS IN
ROLE OF MERRY MILKMAID"

Bossy and tease the laeteal fluid from
her strntting udder. Of an evening,
after hard days work in the office
Mr.. Newman is wont to grab his milk
bucket and stool and wandered forth to
the COW pen and warble, "Oh, I'm 6
blushing milkmaid, bold" At such time
Mr.. Newman's thought gently turns
from detail of dull care to blythe
some romance.
Yesterday evening, while the ice
was on the landscape and the sun was
shining not the self-styled milk
maid wandered out amongst the lowing
Kline and crew from til a brimming
pail of foamy milk. And then he
started toward the house. With a
ioaming pail in either hand he walked
down the gentle slope from the COW
pen to the house yard. And walking,
ne s;nE:
"Oh, beauteous milkmaid am l,
with rosy lips and twink'ling eye; with
curls OF gold and skin like snow, who'll
kiss me now, I'd like to know" war
/ bled the gentlemanly milkmaid as he
pralced houseward and supperward,
NY lips are like the cherries, red
as are the curls which dorm my head
come squeeze me now, and hold my
hand, you lovers bold from distant
land; come kiss me now-wow, hell
up Ding bust the ding busted icel''
and then, casmash came Mr.. Newman,
prone upon the caboose section Of his
person while the milk pail, flourished
high in air, poured snowy flood Of
creamy milk over the gentleman-milk
maids form from head to foot.
"Hail Columbiai Thine the Gloryi
Blame it all, now Taught" shouted the
milkmaid with cherry lips as he scoot-
ed in a sea of milk on sea of ice
from the yard gate to the alley-enu

Ell PAso. Texas, Jan. l5.-The
threats of bandits to exterminate all
foreigners and the appeal of the state
department to them to leave all revo-
lutionary districts are causing a gem
eral exodus of Americans from North
ern Mexico.
A special train returning from Par
raj with one hundred and fifty Ameri-
cans, including women and children
and fifty-two other refugees, arrived
here last night. The Carranza authori-
ties aided their fligha.
The border has been quiet since the
rioting Thursday night. Interest is
centered in the pursuit and punish
ment of General I.opez's bandits, who
massacred the eighteen Americans at
Santa Ysabel.

Poets from the times Of Johnnie
Milton and Billie Shakespeare have
written hundreds Of verses anG com
posed numberless ballads telling OF the
beautiful guileless, smiling, innocent,
loyable and loving m;ikmaids. "Mer-
rie England has teemed with milk
maids and barmaids from the days
when King Ethelbert wooed and won
and kissed with indiscri:ninate profli-
eacy on through the times when King
HTenry VIII swiped goldsmith's and
others wives and created the first Ill
vorce courts and on down to the time
when the late Rex Edward almost
broke into the divorce courts.
And the noYelists have written and
the poets have sung Of Merry Milk
ra'os" tripping DER the dewy sward.
tlistcry's pages ha - not remained un-
blo,nished with stories Of millymaids
and their amonrs. And the love of
the romantic and pastoral at last swept
milkmaids across the waters OF the
turbulent Atlantic and landed it upon
the storm swept coasts of historic New
England from whence it journeyed
across the country by easy stages un-
til it landed in Chickasha.
And TO S. L. Newman, clerk of the
court, fell the happy lot of impersonat-
ing the first milkmaid to land in this
city of sun and flowers and blizzards,
made to order while you wait.
You see, Mr.. Newman was reared
upon a farm. Away back yonder where
"Burley Blue Ridge bowls along.
Mr. Newman learned to breathe and
drink milk. Both have become fixed
habits with him. Take his daily glass
Of milk away and you might as well
rob him of his daily breath. And
Mr. Newman loves to play the milk
maid act and to sit beside the gentle
