upon tne morning OF the eventful
day mounted groom galloped up to
The Cedars requesting to see Kane in
person. Being shown into the library,
where the master happened to be
alone, he delivered a letter marked

With nervous forebodings he broke
the seal, but the news it contained far
outran his fears, and might have stag
gered stronger mind than his. In his
excitement he hardly noticed the af-
fectionate beginning, which at another
time would have filed him with de-
light.

The Situation

The situation in the Indian
Territory is brighter than for years.
The oft-repeated assertion that
the beginning Of the end is at hand
is now made with a degree Of truth.
Ten years ago when the Dawes
commission was sent to the Indian
Territory to close up the domain
and allot the estate it was said
that but few months remained
and then the land might be right
fully occupied by emerge tic men
for useful purpose. An influx of
population was noticed and the
wait began. Many grew tired Of
waiting and moved back to the
states. A few remained. P,.riodi-
cally ever since the first invasion
OF the Indian Territory by agents
OF the government for the purpose
OF closing the common title and
merging the tribes into citizens the
announcement has been made that
it is almost over now. And then
came more delays until the Indians
and the white men alike grew
weary and discouraged.
But all things mrlst have an end.
The work of the Dawes commission
is happily drawing to that felicit-
Gus and much desired angel of pro
cedure.
With its work completed and
the territory turned over to citizens
and land owners, the real progress
OF this magnificent domain will be
gin. And the world will see the
building Of a commonwealth that
will have no equal.
The conditions that here await a
man with determination and brains
and a chance are unexcelled in the
United States. They need no adj
vertising. They need no feature
heads They require only the
chance that has 50 long been denied
them.

Big Hotel IN the Woods
Tavern Inside the Worlds Fair
Grounds, Surrounded by a Forest
Oilers a Luxurious and Restful
Retreat.

The comfort for the visitor to an
exposition was never the subject
for so much intelligent thought
and preparation as it has been
at St. Louis.
One Of the features that cannot
fail TO appeal to the visitor is the
convenience and comfort afforded
by the Inside Inn, a structure of
2,a57 rooms. covering an area OF
400 bp 900 feet, wholly within the
Worlds Fair grounds.
Probably no hotel ever built
commands a view so diversified or
grand. From the wide verandas
that surround the mammoth struc-
ture a wonderful panorma spreads
before one. Many Of the state
buildings, with their gaint and
magnificent structures, present
their most attractive facades. Some
of the forgeign buildings may be
seen, and the forest of towers and
turrcts, domes and minarets, rising
above the great exhibit palaces
that may be seen through the forest
of real trees that surrounds the
hosiery
A leisurcly walk of five minutes
will land one on the main terrace
in front of the Festival Hall, the
center Of the "inain picture" Of the
Exposition, the grandest spectacle
ever produced by man. Another
FIVE minntes walk and the visitor
may find himself on The Pike,
street of amusement, a full mile
long, with the shows Of all nations
in gay and enticing array.
In the ten minutes walk many
of the main exhibit palaces have
been passed. These comprise the
largest and grandest collection of
architural triumpns ever assembled
in any one place. Notwithstanding
its close proximity to these scenes
1f gaiety and splendor, noise and
co infusion, the Inside Inn offers a
del ightful retreat. During the noon
hou.r the visitor may retire for a
brief rest and resume his de-
lightf ul task of sightseeing refresh
ed and all the more able to appre-
ciate al I'd enjoy the Worlds Fair
wondersv
The ra les at this hotel are no
higher til. qn charged elsewhere. A
good ROOT may be had for 81. so
per day Including admission to
the ground S. Other rooms may
be had up to $500 perday accord
ing TO the luxuries demanded.
There is a res taurant in the build
ing with a seating capacity of

ADVANTAGES OF
ELECTRIC LIGHTS

are so apparent that we are almost
ashamed to talk about them. They
stick right out like the nose Of your
face, but, as Marcus Aurelius
might have said, if he had thought
of it, IF a man blow not his own
horn, the same it shall not be
blowed." And our Office boy saws
he'll be blowed if he can see why
we should hide our light under a
half bushel.
Ro to save argument we are will
ing to admit that there is 10 light
that even approaches the electric
light IN quantity of light radiated
all around the room.
The quality Of the light you can
see for yourself. Electric lights
give strong, clear, vivid write
light. That is what is demanded
today, pure, white light and plenty
Of it.
II our points are not clear to you
II is undoubtedly due TO the fact
that yonr light is poor. If you
will put in full equipment Of elec-
tric lighes the whole subject will be
made beautifully luminous and we
will have. peace in the family.
