THOUGHTS ON MATHEMATICS

A number is unit. "Quite num-
Der" means any old thing-possibly
"a whole lot"
Mathematics is called an exact sci
ence, probably because it eXacts SO
much brain work.
Mathematics is that science which
teaches us how not to let others do
us as we would do them.
Some people are natural-born
mathematicians. They find it as
easy as rolling off a logarithm.
Things equal to the same thing
are equal to one another, but there
are some things few of us feel equal
to.
A prime" quantity is one that
cannot be divided, but million dol
lars can fall under that head under
some circumstances.
The radical sign indicates that n
root is to be extracted.

NO LOTTERY PLAN.
Post Office Department Puts Quietus
on Prevailing Practice.
Many Towns In tine New Territories Have
Boon Doomed by Selling Lots by This ,
Method Money May Have to
be Refunded.

Washington, April 6.-The order
issuef Ny the fraud division of the
post Office department prohibiting
townsite lotteries by preventing the
passage of such advertising matter
through the mails IS one of the re-
suits, as alleged, of the investigation
of Mr.. Bristow, the fourth assistant
postmaster general, and Inspector
Harrison, of Kansas City. The gen
eral inquiry intosmatters allowed by
the department caused action to be
taken in this matter and this is to
be followed, as believed, by a close
inquiry into the habits and conduct
of the guessing. get rich quick
schemes and cooperative enter
prises. -} e.
1t is yet question whether the
money already collected by townsite
companies on lottery plan shall he re-
funded or merely stop on future
lotteries ordered. There is feeling
i'm the reaction Mt thesdepartment to
force refunding of the money, and
this would bring the operators up
standing. 1t is believed similar or
der will in due time come out against
the guessing get-rich-quick schemes
and possibly this. will require refund
ing of all moneys from which the
public had been separated. II so,
this will make action among various
pro bono private grafters over the
country.
Possibly more towns have been
opened in this way in Oklahoma and
Indian territory than in any other
section. AS reported here, nearly
every one of the new towns on the
building lines of railway which were
begun on acre property have been
conducted on the lottery plan.
Among these are Sayre, Thomas,
Sparks, Marshall, Weleetka. Wau-
rilka, Honquenist, Wewoka, kaw City
and many others. Additions to many
towns in Oklahoma and Indian terri
tory have been opened in this man.

d THE PLEASURES OF RIDING ON A SCALPERS TICKET

They sat there breathing rather
skeery. wishing the train would start,
when, suddenly. In came an inspector OF
tickets. They had not figured on this
deal and were somewhat agitatcd. but
endeavored TO look unconcerned az if
they were the sole original rightful own
ers of the tickets When the inspector
took the tickets he smelled scalpers at
once.
Convention tickets. said he as he
examined them closely. meanwhile
studying the faces of the travellers at
tcntively.
Finally he asked. what's your
name?
My friend gave the name on the
ticket
How do you spell it,
'A-u-s-t-i-n.'
Which depot did you buy these
tickets at?' was the next poser.
My friend replied that the tickets
were not bought at the depot. but at the
uptown Office of the company and gave
the date and purchase price.
Then the inspector threw his heaY-
lest bluff. Why, these tickets belong tc
the children of Henry Austin OF this
city; know them wellY he exclaimed
This was body blow for the travel
ers. who. however, denied all knowledge
OF the Austin children or their kin.
Finally the inspector produced pen
ell and paper and asked my friends wife
to write the names as they appeared OF
the tickets, but as she was somewhat
frustrated she didn't produce a very gooC
fac simi!e. so the Inspector announce,

THE statement Was correct, although
the superintendent wouldn't have rec

Feeling sure that the official was safely
home IN bed. he loudly. insisted that he
be called in to settle The dispute. The
bluff worked, and the inspector said:
Excuse me; we've got to be very care
full OF the scalpers will skin us. BY the
way, did you have a sleeper on the way
up?'
My friend replied that he did.
DO you remember the number Of the
berth and the ear?
MY friend easily called the turn. and

the travellers an awfuIly uneasy fraction
