act of the legislature, ami not only
prepared to preserve the files of
newspapers and periodicals intrusted
to it, but also all other interesting
historical matter relating to either
of the two territories. By the char-
ter, Oklahoma editors contributing
regulary their current files to tbe
society, are members of it, and enti-
tled to n vote at the annual meeting,
the first Saturday in June of each
year, at the University building at
Norman.
It is the desire of the officers of the
society that every publisher in the
territory see that his paper is sent
regularly to the society. Also that
all persons who may have any int. r
esting historical data, relics, records,
pictures, stories, old papers, etc.,
and who desire to donate thein to the
care of the society, do so with the as-
surance that the same will be highly
appreciated and carefully preserved.
The two territories are rich in such
material, and if it Is not preserved
now while it is fresh and available,
in time it will be irretrievably lost to
the history of this great state, to be.

What between building ami renew

the organ, and turning the organ,
the organ will cost every year in in-
terest on cupital autl expenditure
enough money to have kept a mis-
sionary in foreign parts or to have
supported a minister In a poor dis-
trict of the city ; and what it costs in

AdiI round a Brother Whom H Bad
Never Seen.
Chicago Inter Oceau: Charles Ray-
mond, 15 years old, was the guest ot
honor at an informal banquet held at
the Palmer house the other evening,
given by a brother whom he had nsvsr
seen until that day. The boy ru
away from the home of his brother-in-
law, Rev. William Wright, a Method-
ist minister of Muskegon, Mich., be-
cause he could not by reason of hla rel-
ative's itinerant habits gain the educa-
tion to which he thought he was en-
titled. When he had purchased his
ticket by boat to Chicago the lad had
50 cents left, which he spent the first
day after his arrival. Rev. Mr. Wright
came to Chicago In search of the boy,
and notified the police, but no trace of
Charlie could he found. Meantime th*
lad. after passing twenty-four hungry
hours, had secured employment In a
Clark street cigar store. He knew that
his brother David, who had run away
from their home in Trenton, Ont., sev-
enteen years ago, was a traveling
salesman for an eastern jewelry con-
cern, and that he made his home In
Elgin, and thither he sent a letter. Al-
though David Raymond had never
seen his younger brother, the boy hav-
ing been in Michigan on the occasion
of his last visit to Trenton, he Imme-
diately sought out the boy at his place
of employment, and Charley trans-
ferred his quarters from a cheap
lodging house to the Palmer house
David Raymond invited a score of
friends to his room to see the night
parade, and incidentally to toast the
future of his adventurous relative.

Just at this season, when the world
is full of brides, and sunbursts and
stars and other da2illng "gifts of the
groom" seem as common as plain gold
wedding rings, a hint on how to clean
diamonds artfully may not come amiss.
The stones should first be washed In
warm water and yellow soapsuds, with
a small but not too hard brush.
and dry them carefully with a
cloth or silk handkerchief, and
them Into a box containing boxwood
dust. Move thein about In this for
some time until they seem perfectly
dry, free them from (he powder and
polish with tissue paper. I.
