HOLD UP AT EUCHEE
Ou Saturday night between
h;:,() and 9 o'clock, two men ap-
proached a house located on tho
middle road just al the bridge
One of the men stood at tJ:e
door with a gun in handand com
mamlcd the inmates, Fred Ander-
son and Tom Haines, not to
move. The other entered the
room, holding a big 4f> on Ander-
son and Raines and invited them
to throw up their hands* Tom
was a little slow whereupon the
robber playfully punched Tom
in the ribs with the front end
of the gun and Tom put up "his
dukes-"
Everything being satisfactorily
arranged, the unbidden guest
proceeded to gather up the av ail-
able cash which amounted to
between twenty-five and thirty
dollars, and pleasantly hade hi
surprised hosts goodnight-
Anderson was enabled to get
a good view of the gentleman
who came into the house and is
satisfied that he could identify
him-
The intruder was about 5 feet
(J inches tall, stoekily built ag,d
weighed about 180 pounds- He
was dressed in a dark suit
clothes, with brownish gray
ercoat with velvet collar.

The file started at the Ilorse-

and turned to the west, six
buildings in all l>cing destroyed-
While it was unfortunate it
was still fortunate in that it was

We understand that mo t. of

"We, the jury empaneled in
the case entitled Minnie E. Bond
vs. Thomas Pryor Gore, find that
the evidence is insufficient upon
which to predicate a suit, and
that said evidence wholly exon-
erates the defendant, Thomas
Pryor Gore; and we further find
that in our opinion, the facts in
the case were entirely insuffici-
ent upon which to base a suit:
and we unanimously state that
at the-conclusion of the plain-
tiff's evidence had the defend-
ant at that time announced that
he desired to introduce no evi-
dence in his bahalf and rested
his case, our verdict would have
been the same, in that event as
the one which was returned by
us, towit, in favor of the defend-
ant, Thomas Pryor Gore. In
witness whereof each of us indi-
vidually signs this statement."

TO HAVE A PIPE OROAN
It ia reported that the pcoph
of the Methodist Church are l<

Aa it is told to us, a well
known philauthropiKt has offcrei
the church #1,000-00 for this pur
pose provided that the churcl
raise an additional $l,CKI-(/0 am
that the church people have de
cided to do this.
The introduction of a pipe org
an will add much to the musical
part of the service and, with tin
well known musical ability in
the choir of this church, will
make the choral services of the
M- E- Church of Cushing ainonp
the best in the state-.
We hope we .have he; n correct-
