SETTLERS BY THOUSANDS
Are Going Into Northwest Country
Through ST. Paul.


ST. Paul, April 2.-Duriug the past q
hours over 1000 settlers have left St. Paul
for northwestern points along the North
ern Pacific, Great Northern and 500
lines. The number includes those who
have been delayed IN the city because Of
the troubles around Bismarck and those
who poured into st. Paul today on the
early trains from central and southern
points.
The number OF settlers who viii pass
through the ST. Paul gateway on Thurs
day viii in all probability be larger than
that of today. The train loads Of emil
grant movables and livestock which have
been held AT Minnesota tranfer because
of the blockade commenced to move for-
ward last night and the congestion Of
business at that point IS largely broken.

Guthrie, Q. T., April 2.-An attempt was
made last night by the prisoners in the
county jail to effect their escape. The at

plans frustrated by the efficient officers.
The inmates OF the inner cell forced the

the outer corridor, but they did not have
time. however, to force the lock on the
door leading 10 the outside. The ring

INSPECTOR is
AT WORK AT
GUTHRIE NOW
Investigating Old Charges
Made Against Ferguson.
REGARDED AS A JOKE
Holmes the Affidavit Maker
Cannot be Found.

Guthrie. o. T, April 2.-The affidavit
man" has not ceased his operations in
Oklahoma. The inspector who is looking
up the McAtes matter in Enid was here
yesterday and today. in regard to the
charges fled last December against Gov
ernor Ferguson and John P. Renshaw,
who are chairman and secretary respect
lively Of the territorial Republican cen
traI committee. Both men were at that
time federal Office holders, and during
the campaign circulars were sent out
over the territory by the finance commit
tee, consisting of MeNeal, Cottingham,
Greer, Jones and others. with the names
of Ferguson and Renshaw signed. ask
ing for funds. There is a federal law
covering this matter, and the finance
committee acted without the knowledge
of the other men. As soon as Ferguson
discovered that the circulars had been
sent out, they. were recalled and others
sent out over the territory. signed by
the finance committee. 1t was thought
that nothing would come Of the matter.
but before Ferguson's appointment char
ges were prepared and filed with the in
terror department. signed by John
Holmes. short time after the charges
were fled a letter was sent to John
Holmes at Guthrie. which was after
wards returned by the postoffice euthori-
ties here, stating that there was no such
person as Holmes receiving mail at the
oG7ce.
It is believed that meeting was held
in this city and these charges prepared
and a fictitious name signed. in order
that the man bringing the charges might
not be brough before the public. Jos.
W McNeal. member of the finance
committee, made a statement to the ef-
feet that Ferguson had nothing TO DO
with the circulars, and that he and other
members of the finance committee were
responsible for the circular letter. Gov
ernor Ferguson stated this afternoon that
he beheved that nothing would come Of
he matter. and that it was only an at
tempt to embarass him IN his present
office. Even If the circulars were sent
out by Ferguson and Renshaw, probably
nothing could come Of the matter at this
time, as Renshaw is out Of Office and
Ferguson is no longer postmaster Of Wa
tonga. which was the case during the
campaign.
The statement made several days ago
on the streets here that an inspector was
coming to look into this matter was con-
sidered as a joke, and since the inspector
came here and 1t was ascertained that
John Holmes" could not be found il IS
still considered in this sense. The in
spector made no statement while here in
regard to the matter. but took a few
statements from men connected with the
finance committee. which entirely clear
Governor Ferguson of any violation Of
the federal law.

SONG SPARROWS.
Differ in Color Of Plumage, but Sing
Same Notes.

From Country Life In America.
1t is an easy matter to become acquainted
with song sparrows. They live everywhere
In our country except in the most arid des-
ert lands and in the southern row of states,
and are to be found all through the year
except in the very most northern states.
As is usual with so broadly diffused a spe-
cies, there are several distinct geographical
races, most of them grading into each other
as the characters of their habitants change.
Thus, in the deserts of Utah and Arizona
we find form very pale and dusty in color.
while in the heavily forested and brush
grown regions west of the Sierras we have
a song sparrow that is very deep brown.
Again, as we go up the Pacific coast the
bird retains its dark colors as far north as
there Is heavy vegetation, but keeps getting
larger and more robust, until by the time
We have reached the Island OF Kadiak we
find a song sparrow dark gray and brown
in color, but nearly as large as a chewink.
Kadiak is the last point at which there is
any tidewater forestation. Beyond this
island we find another resident form Of
song sparrow, fully the equal Of the Kadiak
bird in size and robustness. but. being nee
essarily an inhabitant Of the open and
shadeless shores of the north land, 1t Is
pale gray and brown. instead OF the deep

On Proper Vaccination.

From the Saturday Review.
1t should be made clear that proper vac
cination is the only known method of spe-
c:fic value in comforting immunity from
smallpox. The comparatively short dura-
ton Of this immunity should be insisted
upon, and a simple ineligible description
Of the ordinary course of a proper vac
cination should be added. 1t would be ex-
tremely useful, in view of the wide diff
fusion Of characterization literature, to
make the frank admission that in the days
Of arm-to-arm vaccination, accidental in
oculation with other diseases. although ex-
tremeiy unlikely, was theoretically possi-
BILE, but that the modern method of glycer-
mated calf lymph has now destroyed even
the remote possibility Of such extrinsic
danger. -.

Value of Fairgrounds.
From Home and Flowers.


By Fairgrounds is meant, not merely
open spaces for fresh air. or where the
young may go at will to romp and run
around. This has been the prevalent idea
of Fairgrounds far. Such a playground
soon becomes an intolerable school of vice
and nuisance. An educational playground
is an open space, furnished with competent
directors and equipped with swings, see
saws, swimming pools or shower baths,
soft balls, jumping ropes and all other i'm
aginable playthings and manual training
exercises that will attract. invigorate and
guide the young in their open air enjoy
ments. and will fill up the gap between the
home, the school and the church. Such a
playground may be enlarged with ampler
accommodations. or it may be reduced in
size and equipment and provide for fewer
patrons. 1t may be established in school
yard, OF vacant lot. OF by utilizing portions
of the public parks. The children should be
there whenever they are out to play (and
every child should have about three hours
each day for such playl. In the winter the
grounds may be con(irted into skating

He thought the. intelligent American
Christians were realizing the mistakes
made and were endeavoring to rectify them
This was evidenced in the revision Of arti-
cles of belief of different denominations,
and he asserted that the reforms Of this
kind had only just commenced. The foun-
dations upon which each Christian sect or
denomination rests will be subjected to
Scriptural and historical tests. which will
become all the more safeguarding, as Sec
tartan pride Is gradually expelled by the
higher desire for truth and for unity.
Changes in Anglican Communion.
'It is quite possible, nay, it is to be, in
every way. earnestly prayed that under
the inspiration of the same noble humility,
similar changes may also be in store for the
Anglican communion. We have a beam to
cast out of our own eye before we can see
clearly to detect the moat that is in our
brothers eye; and must first exercise the
false spirit of pride among ourselves before
we can do real work for Christ in the cause
of unity. There is a kind of Pharasaic ex-
clusiveness sometimes manifested in our
church. which is alien to the whole tone Of
the Christian religion, and it is Judaism I'M
der a modern form. But if such sectarian
spirit of bigotry exists in our church it will
be smothered and obliterated when the
time comes that she realizes the strength
of her own position and the great respon-
sibility resting upon her, Of standing as a

actual tones and shades of color differ
greatly in the extreme cases OF these geo.

scheme of marking in all are identical.
Perhaps the most remarkable thing aDesie

Display Of Sectarian1sm.

The idea of unity Is foreign to Ameri-
can Christianity. In this land of perfect
religious liberty, this fact Is conclusively
shown. In America every imaginable
phase of Christian sectarianism is display
ed before our eyes. And now, that all
shades Of Christian belief all varieties of
decentralization, after having been thor
oughly tested, have ceased any longer to
attract by their novelty, the love of sec
tarianism is showing itself to be stronger
than the love of Christ itself. The last
times have arrived of which He Himself
prophesied in which 1.-The love of many
has waxed cold" Multitudes, hankering for
& broader creed than Christianity appears
to them to afford, are turning to theosophy
and the old religions of the east. Hindoo-
ism and Buddhism are gaining a foothold
in some of our large cities; and forms of
agnosticism which were prevalent in the
first and second centuries, are being re-
vamped under the name of Christian Sci
ence."
AS natural and inevitable consequence,
he declared, thoughtful observers are losing
faith in Christianity and turning to prac-
teal works of philanthropy.
1.-THE outlook seems dark. indeed" he
said. "but is it so in reality? In the his
tory of the church 1t is always darkest be-
fore daylight. and the called dark ages
