A NEW OKLAHOMA SCHEME.
Plan to Change the boundary Lines with
II Reno in the Distnncc Us Cnpltnl.

Washington. Feb. 2.-(Special) There
Is trouble among the Oklahoma contin-
gent over the matter of Strengthening
the lines" of Oklahoma by way of TAX
In gin the Chlckasaw country and leav-
ing out the Usage country. Colonel
Forest of El Reno, leads the proposi-
tion to make this change of boundary.
while Mr.. Dunn. of Oklahoma City, is
in the lead against it.
Some days ago Mr. Forest induced
Senator Martin to propose his plan of
changing the boundary lines of Oklaho-
ma as an amendment to the general
Indian bill. The amendment being in
troduced. Mr.. Forest concluded that it
would be a good plan to have it backed
by the Oklahoma and Indian Territory
contingents. For this purpose me-
mortal was drawn up and signed by
some of the Indian country people.
When 1t was presented to Mr.. Dunn he
declared that it was trick and he
did not care to become tangled up in ii.
There was a scene and trouble was
averted by the timely arrival of mutual
friends. Unlike the Breckinridge-Hear
matter, it is still brewing and the fight
ing goes on.
1t is claimed that Colonel Forest car
ries concealed about his person a great
scheme. 1t is nothing less than to have
the Chickasaw country added, the Usage
country released so that the center of
Oklahoma will be found in the vicinity
of FL Reno and all this is for the pur-
pose of at some time having the capital
located at that point. In fact. 1t is
| claimed that something may be done in
the same line that effected legislation
in the last congress, when soon after
certain legislation had been effected
chairman of an important committee
had twenty-one lots in an Oklahoma
town.
Colonel Forest says, of course. that
his plan Is purely Democratic: he wants
to build up the party in that country.
He is certain that in the event his
scheme goes through 1t will leave Okla
homa in a helpless Democratic condi-
tion, and this is what he wants. He
does not like the Usage country, for
that is Republican. but he is violently
infatuated with the Chickasaw country,
which is sawbuck Democratic. and
| hence all right.
But it appears that Mr.. Dunn. chair
man Of the territorial Democratic com
mittee, does not agree with the scheme.
The political part of 1t seems all right
TO him. but the capital feature does
| not meet his approval, and the methods
to be used in bringing 1t about are said
| to be nauseatng.
Colonel Forest, in the midst of his
! through; It has been arranged and my
| amendment will pass. It does not mat
| ter what ti:S others may think about It,
| It will go through. They say 1t will not,
| but it will all the same"

AN EXPENSIVE DINNER.
Here Is One That Cost ono Hundred Dol

New York, says an article IN Current
Literature. cannot claim ull of the famous
lauquots that have tickled the palates of
the guurmeuts. Other cities have served
feasts which have an almost historic in
tervst. In Philadelphia forty friends Of the
late T. j. Gowlu, who was then president
OF the Central railroad OF New Jersey,
once gave that gentleman dinner at the
Bellevue which was q marvel in its way.
The room In which Il was served was th!r-
ty-eght feet square. Every foot of the
wall was covered with green foliage, in
which were concealed small electric lights
Of various colors. The room itself was a
veritable flower garden. So abundant
were the masses OF blossoms that it was
almUs; impossible to move from the table
without crushing some OF them. The table
was oval In shape, the center being hlled
with American Beauty roses. From these
radiatcd madfn-hair ferns across the
table, thus converting the inner edge of
the table into a field OF green foliage. The
dinner was given In winter when flowers
are most expensive and when game birds
are hard to find. The element OF cost,
however seemed TO have had little weight
in preparing this banquet Frozen trapped
reed birds, snails,, especially imported from
France, diamond backed tTrapin from
Maryland, hot-house grapes that cost 81
a pound, champagne ana still wines of
choice old vintage gave TO the feast a
richness seldom equaled In gastrouomic
history. one hundred dollars plate was

In the Increasing prevalence OF the epl-
demlo Catarrhal fever. which was formerly
so universally. called the Grip. II is a mat
ter Of general comment that few, II any,
OF the patients under, DR.. Copeland's care
speak of this prevailing malady as the
Grip, or "A periodic revlsltation of the Grip,
but It is well also to bear in mind that Dr.
Copeland was the first scientist to show
that the epidemic was but the acute mani
rhal disorder, brought into Violent malig.
nancy by severe and peculiar climatic in
nucnces.
That he was right is shown by the fact
that patients whom he has cured of ca
tarrh. or patients under treatment whose
Catarrhal disorders he has under control,
have been entirely exempt during this per-
iod OF general suffering from the epidemic.
although many Of them report Illness in
previous winters from the malady.
