A LAND OF MILK AND HONEY.
Some of the Reasons Why Oklahoma's
Claim for Statehood Is Valid.

Oklahoma means Beautiful Land. 1t
is easily one of the wonderful sections
Of our wonderful country Only doz-
en- years ago it was given up to the
Indians and formed a part of the In
dian Territory; out on Apri, 22l 1889, it
was opened to settlement by the procla-
nation of President Harrison, and in
one day $4,000 people rushed upon it.
The same day a national bank was
opened and its modern history begins.
Behold the contrast since that timel
The census of 1900 shows a population
Of 39S, 245, and in addition there were
1927 Indians not taxed. So here we
have great state springing from prac-
tically nothing to a population of over
100000 within one decade.
That does not begin to tell the story.
The taxable value of the land is now
nearly $100000,00O. Within two years
four great grain and cotton crops have
enriched the state, and the deposits in
the banks have increased more than 100
per cent. The people have built 800
churches and established nearly 200
newspapers.
The population is described as a SUI
perior one, thoroughly American and
progressive in its enterprises. The
beauty of the country is drawing more
and more people to its cOdnes. 1t has
an average elevation of 1900 feet; its
climate is delightful, and, to quote a re-
cent writer who visited the country, ''it
is not an unusual thing for a wheat
farmer in Oklahoma at the close of a
good season to realize enough money
from the sale of his product to more
than cover the entire value of his farm
and the improvements upon it,"
1t was considered that cotton would
not grow north of Texas. During the
past year Oklahoma's cotton crop
brought nearly $6,OOO,0OO to her people.

red to him that the two instruments
might be combined. Mr.. Lundgren has
exhibited his invention to only a few
friends and a Chicago American re-
porter, but as soon as possible he ex-
poets to have it placed on the market.
The violin-horn is played like the VIC
lin, but its music is said to be more
melodious.
Mr.. Lundgren is also an artist of no
mean ability. He was born in Dalarne
province, Sweden, June 4, 1860, and
came to the United States in 1880. He
acquired his talent in Sweden and was
for many years close personal friend
of Anders Zorn, the famous Swedish
painter, who is at present in the Unit
ed States.
The walls of Mr.. Lundgren's cozy
home in Pullman are covered with
beautiful paintings and wood carvings,
all works of his own hand.

ABOUT BIRTHDAY STONES.

Significance of the Gems Supposed to
Symbolic the Several Months.
A list of what are known as the
birthday stones" with the color and
significance of each, is given below:
January-Garnet, symbolizing con-
stancy and fidelity Transparent deep
red.
February-Amethyst; peace of mind
and sobriety. Transparent violet.
March-Jasper: courage and success
in dangerous enterprise. Opaque red,
yellow and other dull cOlOrs.
April-Sapphre and diamond; repen-
lance and innocence. Transparent
gems. The diamond is white, rose
color, blue, pale yellow and black. The
sapphire is generally called blue gem
and that is the color intended when
people talk of sapphire hue" but it
varies so much in color that there are
sapphires which counterfeit other gems.
These are called oriental emeralds, to-
PAGES or whatever other stone they re-
semble The red sapphire or oriental
ruby is one of the most valuable gems,
coming next after the diamond.
May-The emerald; success in love.
Transparent; color green.
June-Agate; long life and health.
Opaque, varied in color, with many
markings sometimes angular or zigzag,
in which case it is called a fertilization
agate. Sometimes straight lines of
color give it a banded appearance. 1t
is then called ribbon agate. Another
kind has markings quite different and
is called a moss agate.
July-Carnelian. one of the evils re-
sulting from fOrgetfulness. The agate,
carnelian. sard, sardonyX are only diff
ferently marked and colored varieties
of one stone, which is called chal-
cedony. Carnelian is usually either
red or white and always clear.
August-Sardonyx or onyx; conjugal
felicity.
September-Chryso preservation
from folly or its cure. Yellow to green
in color
October-Opal or beryl; hope. The opal

capital, for no one would use a cable
at the rates charged for messages when
for fraction of the cost he could tele-
graph by the wireless system.
1t not only costs millions to manufac-
ture and lay cables across the Allan
tic, but keeping them in repair costs
hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Gable ships are kept in commission all
the time, and they find continually
something to do in the way of repairs
on the great oceanic telegraph lines
Repairing a cable is a work of Skill
science and money. A defect in the
cable having been located by means
known to the telegraph experts, the
cable ship steams away to the part of
the ocean where the difficulty is and
drags the cable with its graphing
irons. When finally the cable is
picked up the repairs are made and it
is again deposited upon the oozy bed
of the sea. The initial expense and the
cost of maintenance make it expensive
to talk with Europe, but it does not
cost much to erect two poles and buy
a Marconi outfit. 1t is obvious that IL

Great things are promised for the
new century by G. Marconi, the author
of wireless biography, says the New
York Press. Before the first Christmas
in the twentieth century he will, he de-
clares, have England and America on
speaking terms without the aid of sub
marine cables. One big pole erected at
Southampton and another at Montauk
Point will, he says, be all that is need
ed. The cables which now connect Eu-
rope with America will, if Marconi full
fills his PROMISE become as obsolete as
the stage coach became when the rail

GRIP CAUSED It
THE AFTER EFFECTS MADE LIFE MIS-

One of the p ecuIarities of n Disease That

From Reporter-Journal, Gardiner, Me.

From Reporter-Journal, Gardiner, Me.
Grip often leads to pneumonia.
More frequently it will appear to be
cured but leaves the patient broken
in health, short of breath after slight
exertion and affected by every change
of weatheT-a fit subject for the
many diseases induced by the in
clemency of early spring.
How this may be avoided, how the
system may be cleansed of the linger-
ing after-effects of grip and put in
condition to ward off disease is best
told in the words of one who is able
to speak from experience. Mr.. Sum
ner Cross, of 80 Mechanic street, Gar
diner, Me-, says:
"a severe attack of the grip, about
five years ago, left me in very bad
state. l could not sleep and had no
appetite. My head felt heavy, and
was rather dizzy at times. Changes
of the weather seemed to haze bad
effect upon me and l was miserable
most of the time.

be trifling compared with what 1t Is
now.
The United States is now preparing
to lay a cable across the Pacific Ocean
from the California coast to Manila. If
Marconi can make his promise good of
telegraphing without wire across the
Atlantic, then there would be no need
for laying the cable. The wiz, less sys-
tenn could be used and all the tremen-
dous cost of establishing cable commu-
nication obviated The distance from
Montauk to Southampton is over 1900
miles From San Francisco to Homo
lulu is only 1900 miles. From Homo
lulu to Manila it is about 1000 miles.
If that is too great a distance over
which to operate the wireless system
then a way station might be establish
ed on Wake Island, a little piece of
property something more than half
way over to Manila from Hawaii,
which the United States owns.
In fact, the possibilities of the sys-
TEN, if Marconi keeps his promise, are
almost infinite. The War Department
of the United States has been for some
time experimenting with wireless tel
egraphy Independent of Marconi,
whose system, the officials thought,
did not meet the requirements of the
service. So successful has the signal
corps been that now all the forts
around New York are connected with
each other by wireless system. which
is constantly being experimental with
and improved. The weather bureau,
also recognizing the advantages which
would result to navigation by the es-
Establishment of a wireless electric COM
municatiOn between vessels at sea and
exposed points on our lakes and sea
coasts, and also between islands along
the coasts and the mainland, has made
a systematic investigation of the vari-
Gus systems of wireless telegraphy
The progress made has been eminently
satisfactory. New appliances have been
devised by the bureau experts for the
transmission of signals and receivers
have been constructed that are prob
ably more delicate than any heretofore
made. Messages have already been
sent and received over fifty miles of
land which presented a rough and billy
surface-conditions most unfavorable
to the transmission of electromagnetic
waves.
Marconi also promises that before
long ships at sea will be able by the
use of his system to communicate with
the shore. Navies are now experiment.
ing with his system and considerable
success has been obtained. Meantime
in England they are trying to telegraph
without the use of wire from Dover to
Belgium. 1t looks as if in a short time
a message might be sent around the
world without the use of wires, and
that all The parts of the earth and the
sea would be in telegraphic commune
cation with each other. Deserts. noun
tains, oceans. time and space all seem
to be dissolving before the advance of
science. The world could not desire a
better Christmas present for 1901 than
the fulfillment of Marconi's promise.

clan is confident that he can establish
telegraphic communication between
the eastern and western worlds by his
system at a hundred-thOusandth part
of the cost of laying a cable and main

waves so that the messages from con-
tinent to continent will be flashed back
