Hundreds Issued from the Office of
the Adjutant General.

This rush Of homeseekers TO Oklahoma
Territory has been hard on the adjutant
generals department" said Major John T..
Miller, chief deputy to Adjutant Geperal
Ward, yesterday. You see, one of our prin-

various wars with certificates of their serv-
ice when they apply to us with a statement
that they nave lost their official discharges.

rush. though, does it? Well, it is this way.

time is, by a law of Congress, exempted
from occupying his l~and-erant for as long

the civil war four years and has acquired
one of these homesteads. Well, the law
says that settlers must occupy their land
claims. n soldier, however, who had
served four years in a war, would only be
For that reason, the soldiers that acquired
land grants at FL Reno found ii necessary
to have their discharge from military serV-
ice. If this had been lost. they wrote 10

him to send them certificates showing that
they had enlisted and how long they re-
manned in the service

soldiers have drifted,' continued Major Mil
Ter, Il might say that Friday we sent a GER
tificate of service 10 a man in South Africa,
another to a man at Arayat in the Philip

ficate to a man in Zurich, Switzerland, and
one TO a man in Skagway, Alaska"
Major Miller said that the adjutant gen.
erals office sends out on an average $500
certificates Of service each year. This shows
that a large number of discharges are lost.

scented himself as an advertising agent OF

then left the city. Yesterday a letter from
him at Chicago stated that he had given
the cheek on the wrong bank and would be

check for so wrote to the St. Louis bank
