TOTAL REGISTRATION.
Thirteen Applicants for Each Quarter Soo-
tion of New Indian Lnnd-El Reno's
Good Record.

FL Reno, Ok, July 27.-Fully $4,000
strangers have been cared for by FL
Reno in hospitable manner. There
were brief periods when the water
supply was limited, and nights when
it was difficult for everybody to find
comfortable beds, but the town has
made q record not eXcelled by any
other town in the United States. The
merchants and keepers of the restau-
rants and hotels were satisfied TO
charge everyday prices, and extor-
ton was the rare exception. There
has not been killing in the town
limits. Several persons were shot,
but none dangerously injured. Women
passed freely through the streets
without molestation, every man ap-
parently making himself committee
of one to see that they were pro-
tected.
When the booths closed here last
night at six o'clock the total registra-
ton for both districts had reached
167,006. The registration ut FL Reno
yesterday was 1850. making a total
of 1885. Yesterdays registration
Mt Lawton was 512, making total
for that place of 30,691. This was
the last day of registration and all
who came were able to register.

LIKE WASHINGTON.
Manila's Government Patterned
After the Federal Capital.
Residents OF Largest City In Philippines
VIII Not he Permitted to Vote Army
Officers Not Enthusiastic Over
Curbin's Reform Schemes.

Manila, July 27.-Gen. Hughes ca-
bles the news of the first surrender
of insurgents in the island of Samar,
500 men, with two field guns, 80 rifles
and 20 bolos, giving themselves up to
the authorities.
The opinion prevails among the
United States officers that it will take
years to accomplish the economic pro-
gramme of Gen. Corbin. The civil
and education authorities hold that n
continuance of the protection over
minor posts is necessary, aside from
that afforded by the constabulary. 1t
is generally expected that the con-
centration will be more gradual thar
is anticipated in Washington.
The first meeting of the legislative
chamber, held to-day, was largely at
tended. Commissioner Wright, speak,
ing of the charter of Manila, said the
same reason that controlled in maxi
ing Washington the federal city OBJ
tanned in Manila; and Washington. he
declared, was the best governed city
in the world. Representatives of the
Spanish chamber of commerce vehe-
mently opposed the charter, asserting
that it was inconsistent with the prin-
ciples of the freest government on
earth to deny the right of suffrage to
the residents of the metropolis while
granting it to those of other localities.
They also declared that the proposed
system of government for Manila was
far less liberal than that offered by
the Spanish authorities, who proposed
to make the representatives of the
district in Manila elective by the peo-
pie.

ONE-TENTH TO CHURCH.
Delegates to Baptist Young Peoples Con-
vention Favor This Method of Giving
Against Cards and Dancing.

Chicago, July 27.-"The manner in
which money is raised for our
churches is often q disgrace and an
abomination," said Rev. W. d. Nowlin,
of Lexington, Ky., in addressing a
meeting of the Baptist Young Peo-
pies union. 1t was accepted as the
sense of the conference that every
church member ought to give one
tenth Of his income to the church, no
matter what it amounted to. Rev.
F. F. Jordan, of Grand Island, Neb.,
declared dancing, card playing and the
theater was wholly out of the ques-
ton. "In some of our young peoples
societies." said Rev. Mr.. Jordan, "the
desire for amusement comes danger
ously near supplanting the desire for
a higher spiritual life. Our amuse-
ment tends to lead young people to
forget the high calling which is open
to them"
Officers were elected as follows:
President, John H. Chapman, Chicago;
treasurer, H. C. Clossold, Chicago; re-
cording secretary, Il. W. Reed, Toron-
to, Can.

PREsBYTERIANs FIRST.
That Denomination Established q Church
ut Lawton In Advance OF Other~--
Registration by Districts.

Ell Reno, Ok, July 29.-The regis
tration for homesteads in the new
country by districts is: Ell Reno dis
trict, 10000; Lawton district, $4,000.
Approximately there are $500 claius
in each district. This would give n
person in the z. keno district one
chance in ~ to win claim and in
the Lawton district one chance in IL.
A special to the American from
Lawton last night said: The Presby-
terians are the first to establish a
church Mt Lawton. Yesterday min
lister of that denomination from Kan
sas secured big tent, used rs sleep
ing quarters and held religious serv-
ices. Several men made up the choir
and after the sermon the meeting
was turned into revival. Six home
seekers were converted.
There were last night 5000 people
around the townsite, waiting for Au-
gust G so they can buy lots and be-
gin business. A telegram from Law
ton says the Texans intend to or
ganize the future city government of
that town after it is opened for set
Element, August 6. and have selected
Bat Carr for marshal.
1t is said that some of the 160-acre
farms adjoining town sites will be
valued at $4,000 and $4,000 each, and
that such sums might be secured
for them were it possible to pass a
title. Bdt it will require 10 months
residence on the part of the bona
fide settler to secure an absolute IL
tie to the lands. and this time must
elapse before sale can be made. The
town site property will be sold at
auction commencing August 6, and
the department expects that the
record of highest prices for govern
ment town site property will be ex.
ceeded by several thousand dollars
per lot.

A YOUNG MANS
DISASTROUS ERROR
Austin Ginley, of Battle Avenue,
Boards the Wrong Train and AL
most Jumped to His Death After
Discovering His Blunder-He Was
Taken to the Emergency Hospital.

Austin Gnlcy, a young man whose
! home Is ON Battle avenue, made an
almost fatal error yesterday afternoon.
| He boarded a Delaware & Hudson
| train, whose destination he believed
WAS Lake Lodorc. Instead the train
| was bound for Scranton. and when
| iinlcy discovered his blunder after
| the tram had started and was under
! good speed. he jumped off and almost
Ia his death
lLc was taken to Emergency hos
pital where an examination disclosed
an ugly wound on the forehead.
Whether or not his skull was frac-
turcd. the surgeons did not know,
then. but as he was partially con-
scious, they are hopeful that he has
escaped such grave injury.
The accident happened about mid
| way between No. breaker and the
| lookout crossing. Gnley wanted to
go to Lake Lodorc and when he
reached the Seventh avenue depot and
observed train standing there he
boarded it without inpuirng, presum-
Ing 1t was going over the mountain.
After tho train started Ginlcy dis
| covered he was in error and without
waiting t" notify the conductor he
| rushed to the ear platform and pre-
pared to alight. The train was .un
der almost fun speed. but Ginley had
such confidence in himself that he
made the jump while the train was
dying along. His reckless bravery
didn't serve him well, for when his
foot reached the ground he was sent
rolling about as if shot out Of a cata-
pult.
Persons who witnessed Ginley'S
alichtinG and failed to SO him rise af-
ter he struck, concluded he was in
jured, and they hurried tn his assist
anco. They found Ginley in what they
concluded was Il dying condition, and
a hurried call WAS sent in for the
Delaware & Hudson ambulance. The
wagon responded and conveyed the
injured man To Emergency hospital
Here the examination disclosed the
wound in his forehead where Ginloy
struck when the force of the contact
threw him about There was also a
bad bruisc over the seventh rib on
the right side, but there appeared to
b" NO fracture.
