TRIAL ON BOND THEFT
$500 Worth Of Liberty Bonds Missing
from Local Lodge; Change Tao

mobile Theft Charge.

nm That j. M. Parker will not be turn
ed over to Missouri authorities for
trial on a charge of automobile
theft, as was first contemplated af-
ter his arrest, but will be retained
here and tried for grand larceny,
was the report given out by county
officials this morning
Parker is now accused of stealing
three 100 Liberty bonds, which be
longed Ito the Washita lodge, l. O. O..
f.. from the office of DR.. A. C.
White. 1t is believed that the bonds
were stolen December 31st but they
were not missed until yesterday
They We're found by officers in Sols
pawn shop. The mans preliminary
Is set for next week before Justice
r. p. Moore.
A communication has been received
by Sheriff Matt Sankey from the po-
lice department of Fort Worth to the
effect that the man giving his name
as ]. M. Parker who was recently ar
rested by Grady county officers on
the charge of automobile theft is
doubtless Herschel Taylor, alias Her
schel Long, an ex-convict well known
to Fort Worth officials.
The following is part of the let
ter received by Sheriff Sankey today
"a. NJ Parker, alias Richard r. Theo
plus, is evidently Herschel Taylor
alias Herschel Long, our No. 1875,
Whose photograph | am herewith en-
closing for identification. He is well
known to this department, having
been born and reared here, and has
been a criminal since boyhood. His
true name is Herschel Taylor, the
name of Long was that of his step
father. A few years ago he was dis
charged from the New Mexico state
penitentiary where he served term
on the charge of murder, and since
his discharge and return to this city
he has been suspected of several au
tomobile thefts and burglaries, but
our evidence in each instance was
lacking.
"On October 1918, he was ar
rested on a charge of white slavery
alleging that he transported girl zy
the name of Mrs. W. E. Sacks, alias
Lillian Wright, from Casper Wyoming
but they later married and the case
was finally dismissed"
The letter was signed by R. R. Por
ter, chief of police, Fort Worth, and
the photograph referred to is un
ioubtedly that of the man held here,
Sheriff Sankey said.
Local officials had suspected the
accused of being a criminal severa'
days before his arrest was made, but
no conclusive proof could be found
Binding evidence was procured by
Sheriff Sankey in Oklahoma City the
day Parker was arrected, when the
former found a description of a sto
len automobiles in the files Of the
Oklahoma City police department
which corresponded with the appear
ance of the car in the possession OF
the accused. The Grady county
sheriff wired his deputies to make
the arrest and within a few hours
Parker was placed in the county jai
here.

ed hard and well in fast, clean play.
there being but very few personal
fouls called. Chickasha gained a,
slight lead in the first half and main
tanned it until the final whistle blew
he stated.
The regular lineup consisting OF
Richardson and Fields at the for
ward positions, Green at center and
Adams and Smith as guards, was
started in the game and no substltu-
tions were found necessary.
The coach stated further that In
his opinion Enid was about the hard.
est to lick" of any basket bali ag-
gregation that his hornets would
battle with in the conference this
year, and inasmuch as his team was
undefeated so far in the conference,
prospects for q championship team
for Chickasha we're bright.
Girls Battle Near Tie.
Although the local girls piled up a
score of six to naught against their
opponents during the first five min
utes of play and finished the first
half with a score of six to three in
their favor, the Blanchard cagers
gradually retaliated and tied the
score, twelve to twelve, shortly be-
fore the final whistle was blown
The two teams were evenly matched
and both fought hard. Chickasha's
last nights scuffle, the forwards
maintained their record for skill is
caglng the sphere, and the two cen
tiers were whirlwnds In fact, II
seemed every player was at her best.
o. Minnett and Thompson, for.
wards, McGehee and Cook o s centers,
and S. Minnett and Vaughn in the
guarding positions, constituted the
c. II. S. lineup; and the visitors
team was composed of Curry and
Parrish, forwards: Berry and Baker,
centers; Hill and McCary, guards;
and Dyer, substituting for Baker In
the last half.
1t is pointed out that the battle
last night was the second engaged
in by the local girls who are yet
undefeated this season.

but every score they made seemed
to add to the determination OF the
local quintet, and every fan is
agreed that the scrubs" formed a
lively bunch and made a very credi-

playing.

COUNTY ASSESSOR
TO GATHER DATA
FROM FARMERS

County Assessor J. A. NcClary has
received from the State Board of I'm
migration the schedules 10 be used
this year in collecting agricultural
statistics, as required under the agri-
, cultural statistics law passed in 1919
The information to be collected this
year is about the same as that collect
ed last year, with few items added.
The most important addition is re-
garding fruit, each farmer being ask
ed under the new schedule to give the
number of fruit trees of bearing age
of the various kinds to be found on his
farm and the number of acres in small
fruits. This information was not ask
ed for last year and will not be asked
for again for two or three years, SO
it is especially important that this
part of the survey be covered com
pletely.
The schedule is simple and all ques-
tions may be answered by farmers
without reference to any books or &C
counts. In addition to the number of
acres of various crops they are rails
ing this year farmers are requested to
give the total acreage OF their farms,
acreage first cropped this year, acres
of unbroken land fit for farming, num-
Der of silos and farm tractors and
number of hens and brood sows on
April 1, 1920 Since the enumeration
is begun on April l, most farmers
will not have planted all their crops
when they are visited by the assessor.
They will be asked to give the total
acreage they expect to devote to each
Int
have planted and what they expect 10
plant.
The information to be gathered thru
this survey will be used in keeping
farmers, transportation companies
and others interested informed as to
the amount of the various crops that
will be produced in the different sec
tions of the state. Crop bulletins
giving acreage, condition and estimat-
ed production of all the principal crops
by counties will be published each
month and the best possible publicity
will be given them. so that the farm
ers, as well as those who deal in the
farmers products will be informed
regarding crop outlook and expected
production. 1t is believed that this
kind of information will be of great
value to the farmers in guiding their
marketing operations.
The law requires that each farmer
furnish the assessor or deputy the
information asked for and provides a
penalty for failure on the part of the
farmer to comply with the assessors
request. 1t also provides that no us
shall be made of individual reports of
farmers except in compiling totals
for the various counties. In other
words, the individual reports of farm
ers are strictly confidential and severe
penalties are prescribed for disclosing
them.
