No one has yet heard that Flynn
would take the governorship. That
ought to be settled pretty soon.
Major Baldwin, the Indian agent,
has filed a protest in Washington
against the opening of the Wichita
country.
One of the strangest things of Okla-
homa is that the jewelers are the best
advertising patrons of the newspapers.
The eastern papers are protesting
against free homes. They say it costs
more to pacify the west than it does to
pacify Cuba.
It is about time for Oklahoma to be-
gin that spring boom by holding town
meetings and uniting in order to get
immigrants from the east.
The reason the Free Homes bill had
to go to the calendar is because its
senate amendments call for new ap-
propriations out of the treasury.

to Anakarlco assert that they have

was "held up" in Kansas City. After
the robbers got through searching him
they chipped in and gave him enough

first men to get an appointment and it
will be outside the country. The Ok-
lahoma Clayton fellows are going to be

ornament for his Woodward county
ranch.
There is a concealed laugh some-
where in the request of a Guthrie wom-
an to a young man who called on her
daughter to return the nursing bottle
which he had carried away in his over-
coat pocket.
A fakir is traveling over Oklahoma
with a black board paint charging
high for it and claiming he is the sole
agent. He is working lots of school
trustees who could go into any towns
and buy the same thing cheap.
The Greer county man who forbade
the school children from skating on
his irrigation pond because they fluffed
up the ice and let a lot of it blow
away, is almost as mean as the Geor-
gia man who 1b described in a local pa-
per us follows: Any man who would
keep a dog that would jump a fence
and break a rail and scare a mule that
would throw a nigger and break a jug
of whisky in a dry country is too cuss-
ed mean to live.

lahoma Live Stock Association con-

Hoisted Forty-Two Feet In the Air at
Governor'* Ialand l>y the Pulling of
Four Kites, Representing a
Force Estimated at 400 I.Im.
—Kites Demonstrated to
lie Useful In a Gale.
New York, Jan. 23. — Lieutenant
Hugh I). Wise of the Ninth infantry,
U. S. A., on Governor's Island, has for
six months been studying and experi-
menting with kites as a means of as-
sisting armies in warfare. His kites
are cellular, with rectangular frames
of spruce aud cotton string and cotton
cloth in strips stretched around the
ends of the frames, leaving both ends
of the the rectangular framework
open, and also an open strip in the
center. Thus four iifting surfaces and
four guiding surfaces are presented to
the wind. Yesterday, when tho breeze
freshened to a fifteen mile ati hour
gait, he was hoisted forty-two feet
into tho air by his kites so that ho
equld see over tho eaves of the officers'
quarters and down the bay. The force
represented by the pulling of the four
kites is estimated at 400 pounds.
,"1 have studied the systems of Pro-
fessor Langley of the Smithsonian in-
stitution, Professor Marvin of the
weather bureau and Civil Engineer
CSanute of Chicago, who are making
special experiments in areial locomo-
tion, with aeroplanes," said Lieutenant
Wise. "The success of my experiment
cdononstrates that kites are servicea-
ble in a gale which would tear a bal-
loon to pieces, where it is desired to
observe the surrounding country and
inspect the maneuvers of an enemy. I
attribute my success to a close follow-
ing of the methods of those who have
studied the subject rather than to my
own efforts."
Captain T. H. Baden-Powell ascend-
ed nearly 100 feet in England, but he
took a parachute with linn. Lawrence
Hal-grave was hoisted by'kites forty
feet in Australia in 1885. These are
the only instances of aeroplane ascen-
sions on record.

It is reported that a gang of despera-
does are at work in the Indian terri-
tory, of which George Taylor, murder-
er of the Meeks family, is leader. Sev-
eral parties say that they positively
know that George Taylor is operating
in the Indian country.
A prominent Indian called on Mc-
Klnley the other day and had a long
talk with him about Indian Territory
affairs. The white citizens there should
send a delegation to McKinley. The
new president should not be permitted the counties of western Oklahoma into
to fall into Cleveland's mistaken Indian , one big county and the scheme will

Judge Tarsney overruled the motion
for a new trial in the Alfred Son case.
It will be taken to the supreme court
on this ruling.
A recent number of the Congressional
Record contains a fine table showing
all the Indian lands that have been
purchased by the United States, their
location and cost.
There is no organized effort in the
Oklahoma legislature to consolidate
the legislature will not be without the
usual county scat fights. Shawneo
and Tecumseh are oiling up their guns,
throwing up breastworks and other-
wise arranging for a go. Both towns
will have Btrong lobbies there and
there will be a panoramic display of
cutlery and teeth.
The papers generally are comment-
ing on Governor Renfrow's message
and the concise manner in which he
shows up the territory's condition.
The Kansas City World says "the
proper distribution of this message
would do the territory more good than
a million letters and circulars." The
Wichita Eagle says the "message and
exhibits attached should he strewn all
over New England and glvo the be-
nighted orientals a chance to see what
Oklahoma really Is." Documents of
this kind should be in the hands of the
people. The territory needs all the

A Stringent Ilill Certain t
Missouri House.
Jkfekrson Citv, Mo., Jan. 23.—The
special committee of the House ap-
pointed to investigate the efforts of
the railroads and other corporations
to influence elections has reported
through Bohart of Clinton a substitute
for the bills on that subject now pend-
ing before the House. The bill pro-
vides that all employes of corpora-
tions shall have four hours on election
day without loss of wages. No cor-
poration can, through its officers
employes, try to influence the votes of
any person or distribute campaign lit-
erature of any kind. Corporatic

Washington, Jan. 23. — Although
Mr. Eckels' term of office will not

troller of the currency. It Is sai
to-day that Charles Gates Dawes will

wants that office, but his friends here
understand that he prefers to be treas-
urer of the United States.

Litti.k Rock, Ark., Jan. 23.—Th
Arkansas state senate has passed

TURPIE FINISHES.
Concludes Ills Speech In Opposition to
Canal—Tucker Keep* His Seat.
Washington, Jan. 23—The Senate
ns on the verge of a deadlock yester-
day, and for a time there were pros-
pects of a protracted test of endurance,
xtending the session late into the
iglit. Mr. Morgan, in charge of the
Nicaragua cans! bill, was determined
to secure a time for a final vote. This
as resisted, however, by Mr. Turpie
and Mr. Vilas. Thereupon Mr. Mor-
gan announced ho would ask tho Sen-
ate to "sit on" tho bill, remaining In
'ontinuous session until a vote was
foreod. This evoked sharp criticism.
Mr. Vilas finally made a dilatory mo-
which, on a roll call, disclosed
tho absence of a quorum, and Mr.
Morgan was obliged to give up his
-ilan, although he expects to execute it
an agreement for a vote is not
ached.
Mr. Turpie concluded his speech
gainst the Nicaragua canal bill, the
third day being a continuance of the
former bitter invective directed against
the measure. During the day Mr.
handler presented tho credentials of
John Edward Addlcks, claiming the
tcant seat as Senator from Delaware.
The claim of Henry A. Dupont for the
same seat has already been presented.
In the course of a discussion for lay-
ing electric conduits in the Washing-
ton streets, Mr. Hill (Dem.) of New
York spoke against trusts nnd monop-
olies in general as a serious menace to
the pu blic welfare.
After a two days' debate, in the
course of which considerable partisan
passion was aroused and an ineffectual
attempt made to filibuster for tho pur-
pose of gaining time, the Houho de-
cided the contested election case of
Yost vs. Tucker, from tho Tenth Vir-
ginia district, by denying tho seat to
Mr. Yost and confirming Mr. Tucker's
ritle thereto. The Republicans were
badly divided, fifty-four of them join-
ing with the Democrats and support-
ing the claims of tho Democratic con-
tested.
M r. Yost is a member-elect of tho
•xt House, and Mr. Tucker, who is a
n of Randolph Tucker, has been a
member of the last four congresses.
Ho declined a rcnomination because
he did not agree with his party on the
money question.
TRAIN HELD UP.
The Southern Express Robhed by M ko<!
Ilandlts In Alabama.
Birmingham, Ala., Jan. 23.—B'or tho
second time within a month, three un-
known masked men last night held up
train No. 35 on tho Southern r .iway,
near Berry station, seventy miles west
of Birmingham, and robbed the South-
ern Express company's car. Tho scenes
of the two robberies are within a mile
of each other, and they are almost
identically alike in every detail.
Express Messenger Ward was com-
manded to open the door. Evidently
suspecting something was wrong, the
express messenger did not obey,
The robbers then began cursing and
firing off their pistols to intimidate
the trainmen and passengers, none of
whom dared to interfere. Under tho
lireetion of tho outlaws the express
car doors wore broken open by the en-
gineer and fireman, and pistols thrust
into Messenger Ward's face. His safe
keys were secured and the local
safe quickly opened and rifled of its
contents, which, tho express officials
amounted to $150. Before leaving
the car. the robbers selected from
among the freight packages a four gal-
l-in jug of whisky and appropriated it.
They then backed out, pointing their
pistols at the trainmen, and disap-
peared in tho darkness. It is thought
they had horses in waiting in tho
woods and, mounting thoin, made their
escape.
A strong posse is in pursuit with
bloodhounds.
CAGE FOR THE TREASURY.
McKinley Probably Will Appoint the Clil-
eagoan to a Cabinet 1'osltlon.
Clkvei.and, Ohio, Jan. 23.—Lyman
J. Gage of Chicago is the latest addi-
tion to tho president-elect's official
family. 11c will probably be secretary
of the treasury. A gentleman in this
city, as conversant with tho situation
as anyone can bo outside of Major Mc-
Kinley himself, or his confidential
advisers, said Mr. Hugo was be1- •; con-
sidered for tho position, and Inat his
friends were urging his appointment.
It was further stated that Mujor Mc-
Kinley had sent an emissary to seo
Air. (lago at his home in Chicago, and
ascertain whether or not tho latter
would accept the portfolio if tendered
liim.
Autonomy Not Wanted.
Ntcw York, Jan. 23.—Thomas Eetrada
Falma, president of the Cuban junta
said last night: "There was and is hut
one idea for which the Cubans aro
fighting. Wo have had enough of so-
oallcd reforms, enough of promised
nutonomy. Every intelligent man
would rightly condemn the le tiers
and participants in this movem it if
anything short of independence wore
tho basis of a treaty of peace with
Spain.
Mall From India Fumigated.
Nkw York, Jan. 23.— The mail from

above; medium to dark complexion,hair
and eyes; full face; the hair grows
very luxuriant. You are very ener-
getic and ambitious; you naturally take
the lead in anything you become In-
terested in. You dislike a subordlnats
position of any kind and should al-
ways be at the head of your depart-
ment. You will be subject to chronle
headaches in the early part of life. You
have a fine Intellect and can readily
learn almost anything. You also have
very good command of language. You
are quite secretive in your nature and
do not tell everything you know. You
Hhould secure a finished education and
make a salaried position your main ob-
ject by which to secure your money.
You will not be very fortunate In any-
thing connected with love and mar-
riage.

You have a refined, sensitive and
confiding nature and anything rough or
boisterous Jars on your nervous sys-
tem and has a tendency to reduce your .
vital force. You will manifest consid-
erable enthusiasm with very little sn-
couragement and will appreciate and
treasure up a kind word to the sams
extent that you will remember an In-
jury If anyone abuses you. You will
forgive but cannot forget them. Your
talent runs In the direction ot some ot
the fine arts but whenever you have
made any attempts to study anything
you have found It necessary to over-
come obstacles In your path. You are
a firm friend on every occasion. Your
love affairs do not run smooth long at
a time and if married, your hus-
band has a spirited temper and will not
permit anyone to Interfere with his
business no matter If he Is right or
wrong nnd as a rule he Is not able t«
successfully exocute what he plans. •
