ORLANDO, Sept 19.-Orlando and vi
cinity present the appearance of an
old time camp meeting or country eel
braton with the thousands upon the
ground, the ever present falxir aud the
iubilant, expectant faces of the festive
boomer. So far everything has gone
off smoothly, but instead of the crowd
thinning out as they get registered,
the number continues to increase and
the indications are at the booth that
the present will be the biggest open
ing in the history of Oklahoma. Three
thousand two hundred and forty-siX
certificates were registered here to-
day and ., 200 yesterday. 1t is believed
that fully 20 600 people will apply at
this place for registration. Judge Cole
who has charge of the booth informed
DAILY LEADER young man that all
would be provided for and an extra
force of clerks put on to facilitate the
business of the multitude. Three
army tents are used as booths and
each one has line formed. The lines
are orderly and soldier is stationed
at the entrance of each booth to see
that ali get fair play. Those standing
in line are numbered and formed in
sections of six persons who select
captain and relieve one another at in
tervals, but the lines remained formed
al night, and at this writing, s o'clock
there are five thousand people holding
places in the three lines They bring
their blankets and sleep on their
arms as it were right in line.
More than one half of the certifi'
Gates issued have been for town lots
but the majority required both. II
seems that there is no limit to the re-
sources of the profession al boomer ano
hundreds are upon the grounds solely
for the sheclSles that they can extract
from the purse of the honest settler
by their shark practice. Many make
a business of holding places in the line
and selling when they work to the
front, positions near the booth have
sold from IS to S25. The number
working this racket has more than
supplied the demand and it is not sc
profitable as at first 1t is IA diehones'
practice but it seems impossible tC
prevent it.
At this stage of the game it is safe

ROBBED WITHOUT MERCY.

a Queer Misunderstanding of q Hand I'm
Turkish Bath.
When the new apprentice assumed
his duties at the Turkish bath estab-
lishment the manager thought he
seemed rather stupid, and entered into
q long explanation of what he was to
do. He particularly emphasized the
command that the attendant was to
rub 'em without. mercy
During the day the manager heard a
great many complaints from his patrons
that they had lost their personal prop
erty. He thought that sneak thief
must have come in to get washed, and
resolved to be on the look out. He
discovered nothing, however, though
he peeked around most of the day like
an amateur detective, hiding in all
sorts of places.
Toward the time when the new at
tendant was to go off duty the latter
went into the managers office and be-
gan behaving with much mystery. He
walked around like q wet hen, waiting
until the CO ist was clear. When there
was none 1t himself and his chief in
the Office he tiptoed up to the door and
locked it. Then he produced from his
pockets five gold watches, some dia-
mond rings, a few scarf-pins and
gold-headed cane, which he set forth
with great pride before his manager,
who, horror-struck, recognized the eff
fects as belonging to his customers
"You told me to rob 'em without
mercy, said the delighted novice, "and
done it Do yer think I'll suit, boss?"

"Sakes aliver'

The little bird stood on the roof Of

Altar down the alley lone ragman

choked the tin spout above the rain

The little bird stood on the roof of

Adown the cutters in the lonely street
ran murky puddles on their long, long
journey toward the distant sea. Borne
on the wings of the sluggish breeze
came far-off murmur of vagrant dogs
in fierce contention, and life was q
hollow mockery to the homeless cat.

How Women Broke Bad News to a

Women are called the tactful sex.
Two women came to a Buffalo
lheater one Saturday afternoon in
search Of third woman, whose father
had died suddenly. The matinee was

the act was over, and then cautioned
them against breaking the sad news to
their friend while she was in the
theater.
"Just tell her she is wanted at
home" he said, ..and get her out al
quickly as possible"
In few minutes there was mighty
noise within, and the two women
emerged supporting their friend, who
was shrieking and throwing herself
about She was taken from the build
ing in fainting condition.
Doubtless the scene was renewed at
frequent intervals on the road home.
The awkwardness of the messengers
had added difficulties to their own task
as well as spoiled the pleasure of a
large number of people.
"Therer' said the doorkeeper in dis
gust, chats just like woman. You
can tell man something and he'll see
the point of it. But women go all to
pieces in emergencies"

When General Butler was young

court and, as is the custom, said: "Let

was an unrelenting Wing, asked him
IN what paper the notice should be
given. Butler promptly replied in the
Advertiser, which was stanch jack

paper" said the clerk Butler. of
course, knew that it was almost sac
rhege to mention Jackson paper in
that court, but he answered the clerk
thus: Pray, Mr.. Clerk, don't interrupt

beginto tell us what you don't know,

Certain Diseases.
Six large eggs will weigh about q
pound. As flesh producer one pound
OF eggs is equal to one pound of beef.
About one-third of the weight of an
egg is solid nutriment, which is more
than can be said of meat. There are
no bones and tough pieces that have to
be laid aside. Practically the egg is an
imal food and yet there is none of the
disagreeable work of the butcher nee
essary to obtain it Eggs at average
prices are among the cheapest and
most nutritious articles of diet. Like
milk, an egg Is complete food in itself,
containing everything necessary for
the development of perfect animal.
It is also easily digested, If not dam
aged in cooking, indeed, there is no
more concentrated and nourishing food
than eggs. =
The albumen, oil and saline matter
are, as in milk, in the right proper
ton for sustaining animal life. The
valuable or important salts are con-
tanned in the yolk, and hence this
portion of the egg is most useful in,
some forms of disease. A weakly per-
son, in whom nerve force is deficient
and the blood impoverished, may take
the yolk of egg with advantage. The
iron and the phosphoric compounds
are in a condition to be easily assam
lated, and although homeopathic in
quantity, nevertheless exert marked
influence on the svsfem The voIls If
eggs, containing as they do, less albu-
men, are not so injuriously affected by
heat as the whites, and hard boiled
yoke may be usually eaten by invalids

why Hayes Didn't Garry : watch.

Ex-President Hayes did not carry a
watch, the reason for which peculiarly
illustrates one of the traits of his
character. 1t appears that in his
younger days the watch he then car
ried was the cause of sending two men
to the penitentiary. It was stolen
from his pocket; the thief was cap
tured, tried, convicted and sent to the
penitentiary for term Of years. Mr..
Hayes recovered his watch and a Sec
ond time it was stolen. The thief
turned out to be poor man with a
large family, and after he had been
sent to the penitentiary Mr.. Hayes
came to the conclusion that he would
get rid of the cause Of 30 much trouble
to his fellow-men. Since then he
never owned q watch.

Richest Gold Mine IN the World.


Late reports from the gold mine OF
Mount Morgan, in Queensland, Aus
tralia, the richest in the world, show
that the prospecting which has been
carried on makes It evident that gold
bullion to the value of scores Of mil
lions of dollars will be taken from this
deposit before it is exhausted. TRANSIT
tions in value are rarely contrasted
more strongly than in this astonishing
gold find Ten years ago the entire
hill which goes by the name Of Mount
Morgan was sold for $4,000 Since that
time it has paid in dividends to the
stockholders in the company that
owns the mine more than SIS, 900, 600,
with the prospect Of almost unlimited
payments in the future.
