Oklahoma City, Nov. 20.—Office-
seekers who have been besieging
Judge Williams, the gjvernor-elect,
are coming to realize that he wjh
In real earnest in his declaration
during the primary campaign that
his would be a policy of "cruel
economy." He huB made it evident
to a number of men who have been
seeking certain very pleasing of
flees, the duties o - wm it.i n t
eem to be Irksome to incumbents,
that there is to be a revision of of-
fices as well as of employes. He
has had occasion to tell many ap-
plicants for at least three present
perfectly good places that tho places
are to be abolished.
In the matter of quality of appoin-
tees, Judge Williams has shown that
his resolution is still firm to keep
Ills pre-election and per-nomlnation
promises. He has bluntly told some
applicants, whose records are good
only from tho standpoint of party
service, that they are incompetent
to hold the offices to which they
have aspired and for which they
have filed sheaves of applications.
Calls Big Men.
The men who get a big appointive
office under the Williams adminis-
tration are going to be big men or

else Judge Williams is due to
change his mind. One or #two of
these offices have been offered to
men whose acceptance of them will
entail financial sacrifice. These \
men have the offers under consld-l
eration. They may accept. If they |
do not, there are other such men
who probably will. It is not un-
likely that ono or two bank presi-
dents will be called to take service
of the Ftate under the Williams ad
ministration.
Another truth that is dawning j
upon the placeseekers is the utter
detachment of Judge Williams from !
tho appeal that long service for the i
State, or the territory that*proreded !
it, is a recommendation for appoint
ment. One man, who wanted a chief j
clerkship in a department that he j
deemed the governor-elest woul J
have influence wit!i, was told bv
Judge Williams in answer to his
long service in office record, t^at
the fact that he had not done any
thing but hold office was an in M
cation that he lacked fitness to sue
coed in affairs of his own.
This apparent attlt"de of oppos'-
tlon to me whose service in office
Is their chief recommendation is not
due to a determination to piss the
favors around. It Is founded upon
tho belief that new men. who have
been succesrful In private butlne*"
or employment, may be able to do
better by bringing new ideas am'
greater vigor into the service of
the state.
Wllllnntfi lteuialm Determined.
The cares that come with seeker I
after office seem to rest light1* |
unon the man who wro*e the con i
stitutlon of Oklahoma. He hnB lm
proved in health and rectus to ei* i
and sleep well plnce t^e campaign*
closed. To be buttonholed tweet'
times between the entrance to Wc
i hotel lobhv and the elevator sever*'
j times a day has not affected t*e
nerves of the next governor nor
, his apparent determination to keep
i all his promises made during the
j campaign.
| Rlg'd economy and rugged thrift
and efficiency have been the shib-
boleths of many men on manv plat-
f^rmg in many states for many of-
fices. So far as the state of Okla-
homa has progressed toward the
■ administration of Judge Robert L
I Williams ns governor. It seems tha*
the«e promises hv him are so f^r
'ntact, aed therein is a ref^tst'on
f\t belief a^on"! jpelltlclans t**°t

Belgium, In Tapestry Work, Outdid It*
Oriental Originators.
Belgium lias been called the "I^ind
of the Loom." nnd It was here in the
ninth century that an art urose new
to Europe, although familiar for cen
turics lit the orient. Tapestries cans
ed stone walls to bloom and brought
prosperity to the cities Pictured
hangings of linen, wool or silk, writes
Mr W E GrffTa in "Hel-jInm-The
Land of Art." opened commentaries
on the Scriptures and the classics, lie
cume books for the Illiterate, told fairy
tales to the children, served ns manu-
als of devotion to the pious. Increased
personal comfort and brought the tea
tile art to Its highest point of perfec-
tion.
This "wall clothing" passed through
many styles and fashions nnd many
revolutions In methods and values.
Beginning in the castle or monastery.
the craft passed Into the shops and
factories and formed the basis of the
wealth of the cities and kingdoms.
The manufaeture of tapestries came
from the east, where It had long been
practiced by the Moors ami Saracens
The tlrst Imitation by the Belgian—or
Flemish—craftsmen was rude enough.
Gradually, however, through skill and
care, the Imitators became originators.
The best artists co-operated with the
weavers to produce pictorial results
nndreained of in the orient. Painters
of the very highest rank, even Raphael
and Michelangelo, were glad to draw
enrtoons for those who could trans-
form the black and white designs Into
glorious colors In wool or silk
In time their fame became world-
wide and their value so great that
they were worth, literally, more than
"a king's ransom." In l.'lOf. the Sultan
Bn.lazet I. took ns prisoner a son of
Philip the Hardy, king of Prance. The
Turk stipulated as a fair exchange
"high warp tapestry, worked In Arras.
In Pieardy." but they should represent
"good old stories."
It's a Good Letter, After All.
Some one has advanced the opinion
that the letter "e" Is the most unfortu-
nate letter In the English alphaliet Ih -
cause it Is always out of cash, forever
In debt, never out of danger and in bell
all the time. For some reason he over-
looked the fortunates of the letter, so
we call his attention to the fact "e" Is
never In war ami always iu peare. It
Is the lH>ginuing of existence, the com-
mencement of ease and the end of
trouble. Without It there would Ih no
meat, no life and no heaven. It is the
center of honesty, makes love fierfert.
and without It there could be uo edi-
tors. devils or news.—Fourth Estate.
Martial Law.
The proclamation of martial law
meaus the suspension of ordinary law
and its replacement by mi itary au-
thority. Thus a ml Itary commander
may take action aualnst any person
who offends without trying him before
the ordinary courts A proclamation
of martial law also abolishes trial by
Jury. London Telegraph.
REAL "DOGS OF WAR."
rScy Used to Wear Coats of Mail and
Carry Firebrands.
•'Dogs of war" is a phrase which
once meant a thing as real as the war
horse. Dogs have played theii part in
battles and campaigns, and in the old
wars between England aud Scotland
dogs were used by both combatants
for pursuing and killing fugitives aft
t*r a defeat.
It is relented that Wallace and Bruce
each had close (.-scapes from capture
by Enxlixh bloodhounds. Bruce is said
to have thrown the English dog otT the
scent by the now well known expedl
cut of wading «ip a stream far enough
to battle his pursuers. >tnd Wallace
evaded the hounds by having recourse
to a trick more or less common In those
bloody times of killing a follower and
leaving the Itody in the dogs' path for
ihcm to coute upon The dogs finding
a body believed that their task was
done <iud discontinued the hunt
lu the history of (ho wars of the
middle ages one Hnds reference to the
use of big dogs against cavalry for
the purpose of throwing the horses
Into confusion and not alone for cans
ing panic, but casualties, for these
tierce canine partisans were cic*hed ir
coats of mull studded with spikes a no
having scythes titled to their harness
Instances are recorded where war
dogs with tire brands fastened to their
coats of mail have been set on an
enemy's camp with destructive results
Ilenry \ III must have found dogs
useful in military ways, because in
English history it Is written that he
offered the use of -JO.oun auxiliaries ami
4.(MM) war dogs to King Charles V. of
Spain to aid that monarch in his war
with Francis I
In the reign of Queen Elizabeth
when the Earl of Essex entered Ire-
land for the purpose of suppressing in
surrection there his army was accom-
panied by a hundred bloodhounds.—

A LITERARY GLUTTON.
Magliabecchi Was Too Busy With Hie
Books to Draw His Salary.
The most picturesque tignre In the
annals of Italian lihrarianship is un-
doubtedly Antonio Maglialie<*ehi. While
his otiicial position as librarian to Cos.
mo III., grand duke of Tuscany, gave
him considerable prominence, he Is re-
ntemlierod more especially for bis per-
sonal characteristics and his vast store
of self ac«|itired learning. He has been
described as a literary glutton and the
most rational of bibliomaniacs. Inas-
much as lie read everything lie tsaight.
His own library consisted of 40.000
books and IO.000 manuscripts. His
bouse literally overflowed with Itooks.
The stairways were lined witn them,
and they even tilled the front porch
In worldly matters Magliabecchi was
extremely negligent, lie even forgot
to draw his salary for over a year,
says the North American I'eview. He
wore Ids clothes until they fell from
hint and thought it a great waste ot
• line to undress at night, "life belnc
so short and books so plentiful" H<
welcomed all impiiring scholars provid
^•d tlv • did r;. t disturb him while at
vork.
Perhaps the most extraordinary II
hrurianship was that enjoyed by Hide
rot. who about decided to s« l| hi
library iu order to provide h dowry fo
his daughter. The K npres« f'ntheiiti
of Kussi t heard through Crlmm of th
straits to which hlderot had been re

Temple, Tex., Nov. 20.—While ex

local students of ethpology declare
to be that of a dinotherlum. The
skeleton was uncovered at a depth
of ten feet. The bone and teeth,
twenty-four in all, are well pre
