THREE HELD
FOR ROBBERY
Robert E. Lee C. A. Downs and A.
H. Kelley were arraigned before Judge
T. P. Moore this morning charged wltn
holding up and robbing Dr. H. A. Gra-
ham in his place of business on "South
Two" street. Each defendant was
held In bonds in the sum of $750 to
appear before Judge Moore for pre-
liminary hearing on Tuesday the twenty-third
of November and were re-
manded to the county Jail In default.
The trio Downs ot Denver; Kelley
of Louisiana; Lee of Chickasha late
of the Granite reformatory are
alleged to have entered the place
wherein the "doctor" presides as host
and purchased a full equipment of ci-
gars and several slugs of hard cider
after which one of the party !t Is
stated drew a gun and commanded
the doctor to "stick 'era up." Upon
the compliance with the request the
"doctor" was frisked and relieved of
fifteen dollars -cash and his arsenal
according to statements given out at
police headquarters and the sheriff's
office.
Friends of the doctor of his own
nationality of descent aver that the
request to "stick 'cm up" was so thor-
oughly compiled with that when they
the friends dropped Into his place
of business thirty minutes after the
holding-up he still had them "up."

the editorial column. Strictly depend-
able when he is telling a news Btory
he can beat the celebrated Baron
Munchausen when he starts out to
spin fiction. He began the reporting
game on the St. Louis PosW)ispatch
and his ambition was not satisfied till
he connected with the greatest little
dally In the country. His one vice as
verse writing.
Beside Mr. Wyatt you will see Miss
Fannie Whittaker a fair maid who al-
ways smiles except when she poses for
a picture. She is another recent re-
cruit in the office her duty helng to
"pipe" the "personals" and next to
her is the society reporter and ex-
officlo manager of the mere managing
editor the fine-looking fellow at the
end of the row whose highly intellec-
tual forehead is unfortunately
obscured by his cap.
Beginning at the left on the second
row you will observe Bill Gardner six
years in the service of the Express
and a first-class printer. Bill is the
possessor of one wife one baby and
cne almost-new auto which has red
wheels. Kneeling next to him with
a bit of his black mane hanging over
his brow is E. A. DeKinder foreman
for eight years. "Dee" is the owner
of one pretty home one wife and five
boys the youngest George Evans De-
Kinder by reason of the name be-
stowed upon him giving promise of a
most brilliant future. As a typo "Dee"
is there in all the ways you can think
of his only defect being the delusion
that he can play baseball. For picking
the wrong team in a world series he
has few superiors.
Jack Granlee is the next celebrity
to be introduced. A long time ago he
was the foreman in the shop and then
he went away to the big circuit so-
journing In Chicago and other similar
villages till he finally caera back to
take charge of the linotype a machine
of which he is master. His brother
Fred who performs on the big Duplex
press. Is next to him? Fred used to be
the devil of the shop but has gradually
worked up to the Job of head press-
man and he is a good one. He is
single but has prospects. Over at the
end of the row is W. D. Collier circula-
tion manager for a number) of years.
He herds the "kids' and gets "de mun"
from the dear subscribers when they
have it Mr. Collier also numbers
among his worldly possessions a wife
two babies and a home.
Joe Rotchstein who used to be
"Little Joe" ten or twelve years ago
when he was a carrier boy peeks at
you from the position next to Fred.
He Is the artist of the Job printing de-
partment and when he goes home after
the day's work he is greeted by a wife
and baby.
Seated in the row in front are the
carrier boys as fine a bunch of young-
sters as you can find anywhere. They
are Wayne Sanders Erwin Anderson

QUALITY TO BE CULTIVATED
Not Altogether a Matter of Curiosity
In Asking a Woman If "She Is
Vain Enough." '
That may seem a strange question
to ask most women for according to
the opinions of the other sex we pos-
sess all the vainglorious tendencies of
the peacock and then some; but there
are women and we all know them
who are not vain enough. They really
could not care about their personal
appearance or they would not let the
wiBps of hair float unrestrained about
otherwise half-dressed coiffures or
noses go shiny when the least dab of
powder would remedy matters. It is
not so much one's personal r.ppearance
that counts for after all such people
will tell you that they would rather
take the time for improving their
souls or their minds or something
equally intangible; but one should re-
member that one owes a certain
amount of visible personal charm to
one's neighbors; that even if you do
not care whether your hair lies flat and
unbecoming on your head other peo-
ple get some pleasure out of seeing
you with a fluffy prettily arranged
coiffure. Again there is a psychologi-
cal effect from well grooming. A good
complexion beautiful hands and nails
becomingly arranged hair a good
erect figure all act upon one's man-
ners. A wave in the hair will take
the kinks out of one's disposition. So
cultivate enough vanity to make you
always look your best and ito empha-
size your own good points.
Anthony Trcllope once offered to
"toss" with his publisher to see wheth-
er a manuscript should bring 1000
or 2000. The other refused but la-
ter wlen the business was settled
offered to toss for 1000 as a pure
gambling venture. This time it was
Trollope whose pedal temperature was
low.
BEWARE OF CHEAP SUBSTI-
TUTES. In these days of keen competition it
is important that the public should see
that they get Chamberlain's Cough
Re:nedy and not take substitutes sold
for the sake of extra profit. Chamber-
lain's Cough Remedy has stood the
test and been approved for more than
forty years. Obtainable everywhere.

Fourth Quarter.
Chickasha has ball on Enid's 7 -yard
line with second down. J. B. Hill goes
through the line for the final touch-
down. The two teams now seem to
vie with each other in using the for-
ward pass. One team makes great
gains by these passes only to lose
those gains by the other team inter-
cepting and carrying the ball back.
Although Chickasha is able to make
more first downs than is Enid she is-
continually losing the ball on fumbles.
Collier receives the K. O. and is sub-
stituted by Harris. Enid completes a
25-yard pass. Enid again nets 15 yards
on a pass and when ftie whistle blew
Enid held the ball on the fourth down
within three yards of Chiekasha's goal
line.
Chiekasha's line-up: Wilson right
end; W. Griffith right tackle; Collier
right guard; Riddle center; Buie and
A. Griffith left guard; G. Shook left
tackle; H. Hill left end; Luster quar-
terback; J. B. Hill left half; Pool
right half; Goetting full back. Sub-
stitutes Gardner for Wilson; Harris
for Collier.
