Told at Ghe Fair

IAPAN'S aboriginal inhabitants, the
- Anus of the Island of HOkkaido,
nine of whom are at the Worlds Fair,
are always the objects of much interest
on the part of visitors. They are in
charge of an educated young Japanese
divinity student who came over to the
United States with them.
One day a sharp-featured, elderly
woman, carrying in her hand bundle of
tracts, visited the neat little hut and
inclosure at the fair where the Ainus
are quartered. The young Japanese
student was the first in her path, and she
aCCOSted him.
You are an Ainu?" she inquired
mo, madam, | am Japanese" he
answered with the prOverbial pOliteness
of his race.
Then these are the Ainus?" she de-
manded, with a sweep of her hand
toward the amiable natives who were
seated around their weaving and wood
carving.
Their mentor answered that Sire was
correct in her conclusion.
They are to Japan what the Indians
are to the United States" was her next
buOAy' PlOpOuIIuCd III lHC lOIIIl VI a
statement.
Not exactly" replied the young
Japanese.
Yes, I'm sure they are" she per-
sisted.
We'll, if you insist, " replied the young
man with an amused smile, these
abOrigincs might be termed the Indians
of Japan"
She had won her point, and was tn
umphant. Then she inquired with a
note of pity in her voice; Have you any
friends in this country or city,"
None whatever" answered the Jap
ancec
But you know, don't you that you
have friend in Christi"
Seriously and with reverence the
Japanese student replied; " Yes"
The woman evangelist was surprised
and little incredulous. You know
who Christ isl" she asked
Il hope So" he replied patiently. Il

College of Toxic, and expect to be

sand his wife. II wonder what ]
ought TO do for it
That's easy" replied Whit. There
are a thousand things you can do, any
one OF which is said TO be a sure cure.
Rut I would advise you to try a COM
loation and YOU viii be certain TO get
results"
Well, what do YOU adviser"
Before YOU go to bed at night, -

Then when you go to bed wrap the

ated with laudanum around the elbow,

IL seems to me that is lots of trou-
i1e. suggested Mrs. Whit.
"Oh. that isn't all. - replied her hus-
band Besides, isn't rheumatism some
troaile' Why, woman, men who have
the disease for twelve or fifteen years
become so desperate that they would do
aryfhing to be cured. And great fortunes
have been made selling medicine to those
who have suffered for thirty or forty
years
Thirty or forty years." gasped Mrs.
Nurr
Sure thing, Rheumatism is about
the most durable thing in the world"
Well if II gets much worse with me

But YOU can be cured, eXpostulated

the depot until it resembled a monster
furnace, says the Democrat.
1t took the fire department just two
and one half minutes from the time of the
signal to play water on the scene-the
boys having four blocks to make the run
They worked hard. 1t was a hard prop
osition for them, the flames being be-
meath the house made it hard for them
to work. But they worked untiringiy for
one half or three quarters Of an hour
before they had it under control.
The origin of the fire was by many
thought to have been from a live coal or
train which had passed through only
about Is minutes before the fire was dis
covered, but the company officials lay
the blame to a cigar or cigarette.
General Superintendent Whittenton,
Engineer H. G. Clark. chief carpenter
c. Harrison, special claim agent for fires
and loss of property came in on the early
train Tuesday morning and made ar
rangements for the reconstruction of the
depot and the construction gang has
arrived and begun operations. 1t is the
purpose of the company to make COM
plete change in the building by remodeling
and reconstructing the passenger depot
and to remove tie freight depot to this
side of the track and to have their bust
ness more compact than heretofore.
The company sustained a loss of the
depot building only, the records, express
packages, books and files of the business
were all saved

STUDENTS HAD FUN.
April the Occasion for a General
School Picnic,

Norman, o. T.. April 2.-According to
time honored custom there was no school
at the university Friday. Not because
there was any legal holiday or because
there were no instructors present to hear
their lessons. but rather because of the
fact that April l has for the past years
been the occasion of a general school
picniv. Therefore the university was de-
serted and the professors had no classes
to worry with.
Early in the morning students were
seen hurrying about and by O'Clock they
had all congregated at the end Of the
boulevard where five or six wagons with
large hay frames were waiting and after
carefully placing their lunch baskets in
a place of safety they all climbed in and
were soon on their way to a convenient
grove six miles northeast of here where
every one spent most enjoyable time.

CASE CAUGHT FIRE.
Little Damage Was Done and Fire
Loss Fell on Insurance Company.

Chandler o. T.. April 1.-The Tribune
gives the following account of the recent
fire in its office:
The editor of the Tribune opened the
o1sce and built a fire about $50 Tuesday
morning after which he left the Office
for 4 few minutes.
On his return he discovered that
rack containing about 80 cases Of ytpe
was blazing furiously.
He FASTENED across the street and rang
the fire bell. The fire company quickly
responded and the fire was soon extin-
guished
No damage was done to the machinery
as nothing but few papers caught fire
in the press room.
The wind was blowing a gale from the
south and had the fire got outside of the
building it might have caused great dam
age.
1t is supposed that the fire was caused
by the papers on and near the cases be-
coming ignited by spark from the stove.
The damage to the office amounts to
about sl75, fully covered by insurance.
