WAITING FOR THE GUN
Thousands Are Ready to Run for
KickapoO Lands.
Five Thousand Are Gathered at
One Place Alone.
DRIVE OUT SOONERS.
Deputy Marshals Busy Clearing
the Country of Them.
DRIVE OUT SOONERS.

GUTHRIE, Ok, May 23.-Fifteen thou
sand people are now gathered around
the borders of the Kiclzapoo reserva-
ton, casting longing eyes to the fertile
claims which they hope to win. South
of Chandler a monster crowd of people
is stationed, while at Ingram 5000
sturdy westerners with wives and fam
lies are busy making ready for the
run. Vehicles of every description can
be seen and everything that can be
ridden from bicycle to a mule is in
demand. The choicest claims lie next
to Ingram and only two quarter Sec
tions of a1lotments are to be travelled
before the free claims are reached.
Deputy marshals have been busy all
day driving out the sooners. During
the two fake runs three months ago,
the hoaxed racers set out stakes.
These stakes will tend to bother the
runners to-day as they are on the
Indian allotments and school lands.
Restaurant men and bootleggers are
plying a rich trade. Sand wiches are
selling at so cents apiece. while a mere
Whit of whisky is in demand at 25
cents. Townsite schemers are doing a
thriving business, while dance halls

various points along the line.
Two towns will likely be laid out in
the new country, one miles south of
Shawnee and one miles from Ingram
Preparations are under way for the
immediate esta blishment of banks,
newspapers, stores and all other lines
of business requisite to the welfare of
new and thrifty towns. Many of the
1pl1 l.
they see a chance to make few dol
lars by giving up their places to men
who want to make genuine filings.
The big run of to-day will be from
along the south and east lines of the
country, where the best land lies. The
Indians have taken allotments in the
rich bottom lands along the North
Canadian river and at the apex of the
country at the south near the town of
Shawnee, and more tI-an a hundred
people will try to step on it first this
noon and the lawyers will wax rich on
the ensuing litigation.
Gov. Renfrow yesterday began maxi
ing preparations for leasing the school
lands in the new country. This will
go long way towards assuaging the
defeats of runners, as they will be en-
abled to bid in choice lands at nomi-
nal prices.
The opening of the Kickapoo reser-
walton will serve to put quietus on
the famous injunction suit restraining
the Choctaw railroad from building
through the Indian country. After
the hour of noon to-day the Kickapoo
will cease to be an Indian reservation.
All kinds of schemes are being resort
ed to by thimble-riggers to fleece the
unwary and many prospective settlers
are paying from 81 to $40 for ''choice
tips" on good claims or town lots.

The Geological Report Shows an Increased
Output in Many Sections.
WASHINGTON, May 23.-The statis-
tics of the production and movement
of lead in the United States for 1894
are contained in a bulletin prepared
by DR.. D. T. Day of the geological
survey for insertion in his annual re-
port on the mineral resources of the
United States. The product of desilver-
lied refined lead in 1894 was 181, 4O4 net
tons. Included in this total were
SO, 635 net tons of lead derived from for
eign base bullion refined in bond. The
product of soft lead smelted in Mis-
souri, and Illinois and a small quantity
from Virginia footed up to 81, $50 net
tons, cOnsidera BILE increase over the
preceding year. The total product of
refined lead in the United States was
therefore PIG, 909 tons. Colorado
smelted a larger quantity of it than
any other state or territory, her prod
uct being over so, 600 tons. Idaho came
next with $4,000 tons, and Utah fol-
lowed with 80 OOO Montana produced
nearly 10000 tons, and Nevada, New
Mexico, Arizona, Missouri Wisconsin,
Kansas and Tennessee followed with
1000 to 5000 tons each. California
also produced a little. The total i'm
ports of lead from foreign countries
amounted to about TO- 600 tons.

EPOCH MAKERS IN MUSIC.
Washburn Pupils Devote an Evening to
the World Famous Musicians.

Washburn Pupils Devote an Evening to
the World Famous Musicians.
The crowd at the Washburn chapel
last evening indicated that people are
eager to hear music, especially when
rendered so as to elucidate its various
consecutive stages of development.
The time covered by the programme
extended from Bach, 1885 1749, down to
Wagner, 1913 1888. Bach was one of the
worlds greatest creative minds. In his
music is the elimination of the fugue.
The "Prelude and Fugue in B fat
were played by Miss Mona McVicar. As
a transformer of the opera Mozart, 1866
1892, was prominent His GROWING
work was E'Don Giovanni" from which
the aria ''Batti, BATH" was sung by Miss
Blanche BARLEY. Sonata and symphony
were brought to the highest state of
perfection by Beethoven, 1770-1S27. Miss
Mary Harrison played his ALLEGRO from
Sonata Op. 81, No. l." with delicate
ness of touch and expression that was
most pleasing.
Mendelssohn. 1909 1e47, gave a great
impetus to the use of unaccompanied
part songs which were little known pre-
vious to his time. The two nun bers
departure" and "The Nightingale" by
the mixed chorus were heartily encored
Chopin, 1809- 1849, belonged to the ro-
mantle school. He made great use of
the Polish folk songs. and by investing
them with his poetic charm raised them
to a high artistic rank. Miss Blanche
BARLEY rendered "Nocturne in E fat"
and Mrs. Harshbarger "Impromptu in A
fat" to the great delight of the audi
ence.
In Schubert, 1797-1s29, the world had
an inimitable song writer. He recog-
TiZa6 tho i'm of rrOnar words for
songs and used many poems of Schiller
and Shakespeare. Miss Katheryn Arnold
sang "Who is Sylvia" brightly, and
''To Be Sung on the Waters" as if the
soft voices really came floating over the
water. The duet, "AdAgio," from
symphony ia fiat was played by Miss
Lizzie Pond and Miss Ingsls.
One catches glimpses of the profound
and vigorous feelings of Schumann, 1870
1856, in his music, made stirring and
soothing as played by Mrs. Harshbarger
in "Whims" and "Nocturne."
Rubinstein, 1829-1894, was better
known as a pianist than composer, still
he was creative musician and left many
writings, which will become more and
more appreciated His "Wanderer's
Night Song" was sung by ladies' chorus
of six voices.
Wagner, 1813-1883, gave much to the
world that is deep and noble He was
master of the thematic treatment and
noted for his use of the "Leit Motif"
Anyone who has seen the flames leap up
around Brunhilde in the last act of
"Siegfried" felt his soul reused as Miss
Lizzie Pond began the "Magic Fire
Scene from Walkyre."
The next musicale will be the gradu-
ates' recital June 5.

IN THE OLD WAY.

A Missouri Farmer Loses $500 by the
BOX Confidence Game.
WARRENsBURG, Mo-, May 23.-Two
confidence men, one representing him
self as a Sedalia banker, came here
yesterday and told Capt. S. H. Tag
CART, a wealthy farmer, that they were
looking for good land. The three en-
tered into an arrangement for the pur-
chase of the 1atters farm, each to
put up s., 500. Taggert drew the
amount from the bank. The two
men deposited a like amount and
the two sums were placed in tin box
which was given to Taggart. The
men were to return by noon to-day to
finish the deal, or the entire sum was
to belong to Taggart The men then
disappeared and have not since been
heard of. The box was opened this
morning and contained nothing.
