forming passersby that the theater
was unfair to union labor, to per
suadc judge j. Il. Ramsey of the
county court that MS clients were

writ Of haheas corpus started a legal
tottle which lasted three hours in
the afternoon and resulted in n night
fcssicu Court was adjourned at 9
o'clock last night without anything
being accomplished and the battle
vul he resumed this morning at 9
O'Clock
Attorney L. J. Giddings of Okla
homa city, representing the union
men. contended that the city ordin-
ance covering disturbing the peace is
rot valid for the reason that il con-
flicts with the state law and further
that the pickets should be released
because they had not violated either
the ordinance or the state law.
Assistant City Attorney John r..
Woodward. representing the city said
that the process by which the writ
was served on the men by the dis
frlct iIdge did not make II necessary
for Judge Ramsey TO hear the case
and further that the county court has
no jurisdiction al this time.
!. is the contention OF the city that
the proper procedure is for the de-
fondants to file an appeal bond and
accept a trial by jury at the next term
Of the county court.
Whether Judge Ramsey will hear

the NJ, X. & T., received orders yes

RUSH TWICE TO
THE SAME FIRE
Fircmcn Find Pile of Rubbish turning
Both Times with Little or no
Damage.

For the second time within the past
two weeks the Tulsa fire department
has answered an alarm to the same
fire which has been burning for more
than ten days and during which time
the total loss as result of the blaze
has been nothing. Yesterday after
noon an alarm came into the depart
ment from 1l2O North Boston.
At that address a rubbish pile was
found to be afire. Chemicals were
used and the blaze eXtinguished. Two
weeks ago a run was made TO the
same address and the same pile of
rubbish was found to be burning.
Promise of neighbors to keep the fire
from spreading caused the firemen to
return without eXtinguishing the
flames They are supposed to have
been smoldering until the Winds
which sprung up late yesterday after
noon caused them to flare up again,
resulting in the second alarm.

Another design which Is receiving
the attention of those interested In
the selection of n uniform street sign
system is the concrete post into which
the names of the streets are indented.
The specifications for this design OF
marker calls for a reinforced con-
crete post, at least five feet high. The
names of the intersectng streets are
indented in the four sides OF the post,
making them indclible and unaffected
