The question arose as to whether it

to set aside forfeiture in case where
a bondsman delivered the escaped

Moore on statutory charge yester-
day afternoon and, waving prelimina-

Peterson, it is charged, returned to
the Mutz home drunk about o'clock
Sunday morning in company with two
other farm hands. They were obliged
to pass through the rooms Of two Vt
tie girls ON their way upstairs. Peter
son was the last to enter, removing his
shoes outside the building. The
screams Of one Of the girls brought
the father TO the room and on going
upstairs Peterson was found in his
own bed with his head covered. He
was upbraided by the father at the
time and in the morning Mutz proceed

suits might have followed had not the

ANOTHERCAR
Ford Caught Near POcasseI Condemned
TO Be Sold But BOOtleggers Escape
With Larger Auto

Another automobile and 144 quarts
OF whiskey We're condemned in Judge
Moore's court yesterday afternoon, the
petition of the county attorney for
such confiscation having met with no
opposition. The people who lost this
valuable consignment barely escaped
losing another automobile and sixty
more quarts of whiskey.
The confiscated property was cap
tured when Sandford and Hudson, two
alleged bootleggers of Oklahoma City,
were arrested near Pocasset, where
their car brok down. The men en-
tered the Pocasset store where

went to breakfast aud later started to
the spot indicated to investigate. The
large new relief automobile was being.
loaded with whiskey when he drove up.
and the driver, being suspicious, made
his escape with the car, leaving Hud-
son and Sandford behind with the bro
Ken machine.
Homer Hurst,an attorney of Okla

lid he file an interplea, leaving no one

and the two wagons will be busy for a
day or two gathering those heaps
which have already been prepared for
them. But that does not mean that
the vigilance OF the Officers who are

HERE'S GOOD
TIDINCS FOR
FISHERMEN
Mayor COfman VIII Try to Bring 10000
Finny Members TO Stock
City Lakes

One of the missions of Mayor Coff-
man in Oklahoma City aside from the
Taft speech is an effort to give local
fishermen the times Of their lives in
the next few years. His honor be-
lieves he would be doing a public SER
vice should he place 10000 good live
fish az the disposal Of the local devo-
tees of the rod and line and at the
same time would enrich prospective
parks which will be converted into
outing places for the general public.
The mayor viii visit the state fish
ard game warden and will try to show
him where Chickasha needs about that
number of members of the finny tribe
to make its population happy and that
the city is willing to pay the costs of
transportation to get them.
If successful he will divide the lot
between that lake which is being made
on the thirty acres just acquired near
the waterworks from John Sharp, and
which will be converted into large
public picnic ground for Chickasha,
and the lake near the city dumping
ground.
It is probable that one Of these plac-
es will be closed up for a period Of
about two years in order TO allow the
fish to breed and grow, while the 9th
er lake will be at once thrown open to
all corners.
