That space writer from Muskogee
bobs up again with a Territory sen
sation in which he invites public at
tention 20 the pictures OF Gordon and
Lee and TO the waving OF the stars
and bars at the recent Territorial
Democratic convention at Durant
True, the decorations smacked of the
time when blood and carnage held
sway in our land, but the town OF
Durant nor the Territory Democracy
need to make any apology. While
the emblems of state sovereignty pOr-
trayed vividly the scenes of war, they
also depicted the days of the recon
struction when the country was over
run with the carpet bagger. In that
there is a suggestion without going
further
The decorations at Durant We're on.
ly an incident The Territorial re-
union of Confederate Veterans was
held there a year age ana the same
decorations were used for the Demo
cratic convention. The background
In the rear of the speakers stand was
studied with United States flags
Main street of the city was lined from
one end to the other with the stars
and stripes There was nothing there
In the decorations that would convey
the idea to sensible people that Du-
rant and Democracy are not loyal q
the country.
And the pictures Of Gordon and Lee
are an honor to any people, not a
reprcach. There has been no event
in American history since colonial
times that had a feathers weight of
worth without a Lee in II. The two
Southern heroes are Of the worlds
best blood they were TOO great FOR
their memory to belong TO any one
section, but to the whole people, and
the brains of the opposing party will
never criticize Democracy for paying
homage 90 the memory of its depart
ed heroes. Such criticism must find
its source in the diseased Imagination
og some weakling who wants 10 play
the part OF the devoted for some 9th
er reason than the good OF the whole
people, Such criticism will not wild
en- the breach between the two polit
ical parties because it is a stencil in
the nostrils Of the intelligent people
of both parties.

MONEY SHIPMENTS
FOR MOVING CROPS
Last Years Aggregate Already Elk
ceeded -ChicagO Movement Is
Particularly Active.

Washington, Aug. 29-'The ship
ment of currency for moving the crops
has begun rather vigorously" said
Treasurer Roberts I'VE have already
sent this week to New Orleans, against
deposits in New York, $52l, 900, and
to Chicago $1,5OO,OOO.
"By comparison with last year it
will be seen that the New Orleans
movement is about the same and that
the Chicago movement is much more
active. The total payments in Chi
cago last year from January to Sept.
1, against deposits in New York, were
$1,2OOOOO.
1--WE have already sent, including
this weeks movement, $1,SOO,OOO, and
it is possible that more will go between
now and Aug. 81. There has been
total to New Orleans since Jan. l of
$4,011OO0. The amount last year for
the period up to the close of August
was $4,119,OOO."

Initiation In Animals,

Some animals have wonderful pow
ers of imitation. Dogs brought up in
the company of cats have been known
to acquire the trick of licking the paws
and then washing the face. When a
cat has been taught to sit up for her
food her kittens have been known to
initiate her action. Darwin tells Of a
cat that was in the habit of putting
her paw into the mouth Of narrow
milk pitcher every time she got the
chance and then licking the cream off
her paw. Her kitten soon learned the
same trick. A lady tells of rabbit
that she keeps in a cage with a mon
key and says that Bunnie has caught
many Of the monkeys ways. 1t is said
that starving pigeons that have been
brought up on grain will not eat peas
to save their lives, but that if pea eat
ing pigeons are put with them they
follow their example and eat peas.

TramDinE In France.

One tramps because he likes to
tramp, not to save money. Neverthe-
less in Normandy, and the sam, is true
of nearly every other section of France
except Savoy and the Cote d Azur, one
must make a distinct effort to spend
while tramping more than Z francs u
day, or $1.4O. Nearly all the auberges
and many of the smaller hotels give
comfortable rooms for 30 cents night
and no extra charges, the petit dejeu-
ner for 10 cents and prix fixe dejeu-
ner and dinner for 80 cents each.
In a word, francs ($1.4O) a day rep
resents luxury, 4 to comfort and to
4 the essential. To bring the average
per day below francs and keep NOV
ing it is necessary to go to the length
of buying provisions at the stores and
sleeping sometimes in the open air and
in oranges, a method which is not
without it's special piquancy, as know
from experience, but which it would
be hazardous if not objectionable to
recommend. = Alvan f. Sanborn in

Won Lenbach the Painter

Franz Won Lenbach, the great por-
trait painter, painted three portraits
of the poet Adolph Wilbrandt. The sit
tings varied from three to five hours.
On one occasion the sitting lasted
through the whole day, with intervals
for meals. The afternoon passed, and
dusk came on, but still Lenbach work
ed away without appearing to notice
the failing light. At last it grew so
dark that Wilbrandt could scarcely see
him. He called his attention to this,
saying that it seemed impossible for
him to paint any more, but Lenbach
begged him, unless he was tired, to-
continue sitting. But what can you
see of me?' asked the puzzled poet.
"Quite the best of all. Excellent Sit
still, please" And the sitting only end
ed with the last glimmer Of light.

Chicago, Aug. 30.-Pullman will be

persons are employed.
During the last few months, owing

laid off 800 and 400 at a time. until
now the force does not aggregate more

finishing the construction of cars al
ready under way, and when these are
ready for the rails the shops will be
closed and the great plant rendered

DR.. Carl Snyder says in the Ameri-

inferiOrity of human sense organs to
the instruments of science, that, where
as the human eye can see only little
more than 5000 stars in the heavens
on the clearest of nights, the photo
graphic plate and the telescope can dis
Germ countless millions. The eye if q
good one can perceive q measure Of
one two-hundredth of an inch. The
microscope makes an object one ten
thousandth of an inch look compare
lively large To hear the footsteps Of q
fly seems uncomfortable; but, assisted
by the microphone, the tread of that
insect sounds like the tramp Of cav
airy. The most sensitive skin cannot
detect a change in temperature Of less
than one-ffth of degree, but the bo-
lometer will register on a scale an in
crease or decrease of temperature of
one one-millionth of degree and can
discern the difference in temperature
in room when q match is lighted.
