Oxford Nightwatchman Has Too Much Artillery OXFORD, O April 24.

Last night .Councilman Stadler brought the matter before council. He said there was no sense in Smoota' making a walking arsenal of himself; that it gave the town a bad name; that tourists going through the Tillage did not know whether they were getting -into ; riot - or not. . Upon Mr. Stadler's motion the vlUage clerk was instructed to notify Smoots to dispense with the carrying of his rifle.
