Delegates Not Heard.
AT that hearing our delegates expressed
desire to be heard, and while they were
not allowed to employ a representative and
were told that the department would look
after their interests in all contemplated
legislation. we felt that we were entitled to
he heard and show our reasons for de-
manding a greater royalty than is now be-
Ing paid ,,..o 20 NC
and told us that we could make our state
manf tn the Secretary of the Interior
..The Secretary of the Interior assumed 10

at that hearing and stated thai ne "o .'.

"fn the article appearing in The star OF
February 16 as an authorized statement
from the Secretary of the Interior, II IS
stated that the Indians consented to such
a compromise That is not true state

any portion of them unless the Indians

that now paid to them"
eve appreciate what has been done by
the Indian Territory Illuminating Company

done by the subleSsees who have developed
our country under leases taken from the
parent company, and we are not ob1ecting

country, but we do feel that in justice and
equity we should have "a better rate OF

our tribe to have competent assistance In

Object to the Amendment.
1.-THE amendment to the Indian appropria-

on $50, GOO acres of land under the exactly
similar conditions of the original lease, and
that amendment is sanctioned by the Sec

amendment that we raise our objection.
I'VE relied upon the support of the de-
partment before Congress because we have
been led to believe that the entire admins
tration was unalterably opposed to the re-
newal of the lease. and we feel that the

Hyperion Theater.

There could be no more welcome an- nouncement to the average theatergoer than that t'The Old Homestead" will be presented at the Hyperion theater on Saturday afternoon and night, Novem- Der Il. Nevertheless, its popularity seems ever on the increase, and the number of inquiries regarding the forth coming revival predicts an immense patronage. Nearly everybody has seen The Old Homestead" and will want to see 1t again, for this good old play has long since come to be regarded as the best New England drama ever written. I tis the acme of realism presenting the truest and most graphic picture of un- pretentious country life that was ever drawn. Time and again it has been pointed out that "The Old Homestead" as a play is something more than a mere entertainment. It is al. object -iesson-one of the most practical and powerful ever presented, and one that instructs, inspires and uplifts human $ ity What better sermon on the evils of intenperance, the dangers and pit falls that beset young men in a large city, could be preached than that which is here presented, with Reuben Whit comb as the prodigal son, fallen into evil ways, but, happily, reclaimed by the father, whose long and anxious but patient search for the erring one is at last rewarded.

New Haven theater on Thursday, Fri day and Saturday nights, November Is, l7 and IS, was projected the order was given for scenery before costumes were taken into consideration. Archie Gum, the artist, was then sent to study the predominant shades of these settings, and to design dresses that would nos clash with the hues of the canvas. The dresses of the principals were made in Paris, after sketches sent from the United States. Many of them are said to be very beautiful. They are all built of the most expensive mat a-ial, the day when anything was supposed to be good enough to be worn back If the footlights having gone by. Throughout, the production of the Belle of Avenue A" red-haired girls wear costumes that become red-hair- ed girls, and board girls wear costumes that become broad girls; There is nothing indiscriminate about the mat ter: no throwing of eve.ybody's dresses into big trunk and no universal bag grabbing for them when the time for unpacking arrives. Eacl young wom- an is responsible for the care of her own gowns, and there arathree ward robe women who overdaul and repair nightly.
 There will be an extra matinee on Friday and the regular matinee on Saturday. The free list is suspended during this eng agement. Seat sale opens Monday morn,ng.

DANGEROUSLY I'LL.

Frank A. SOuthYYorth, Clerk of the Police Department Frank A. southworth, clerk of the police department, is in critical con- dition at his home, 169 Whalley avenue. His mother, Mrs. M. P. T. southworth, is in the same condition, and in addi- tion to this his brother, William South worth, is critically ill with kidney trou- ble at Grace hospital. Besides all this, MT. southworth's wife has been i'll un- til recently. His brother was taken sud- denly i'll with kidney trouble and taken to Grace hospital in a critical condition, and it was stated at that institution yesterday that he was not expected to recover.
 The worry over the wife and brother has been a great strain on MT. South worth, and when suddenly on Wednes- day night his mother, who resides with him, after eating her supper in appar- ently good health, was stricken with a paralytic shock, the strain was too great for Clerk Southworth, and on Thursday morning he was suddenly stricken with nervous prostration and has been unconscious ever since. Other complications have also set in since then.
 The Southworth family are being att tended at their home by Dr. Louis M. Gompertz, and at presstime it was stat ed that MT. Southworth was still un- conscious.
 Frank A. Southworth has been clerk of the police department for many years, leaving a position as reporter on the Journal and Courier when he took that place. He is a member of nearly all the fraternal organizations in the city, an important officeholder in most of them and an active worker for the good of all. He is man whom to know is to love and respect, and under this con- dition it is little to be wondered at that his friends are legion.
 It is needless to say that the South worth family have the sincerest sym pathy of the entire community in thei1 hour of trouble.
 Dr. Gompertz went to MT. South worth's bedside last evening and re- mained all night with him.
 MT. Southworth's mother has not beer
 made aware of her sons critical condi
 tion. It is also gratifying to repor | that she has somewhat recovered.

THE BRITT-NELSON FIGHT.
 The exhibition of the Britt-Nelson fight motion pictures that is touring New England has given rise to more heated argument in Boston and other nearby cities where they have been shown than the fight itself did in San Francisco. Every man that enters the theater has in mind the absolute fact that Nelson won and that Britt was knocked out in the eighteenth round With this foreknowledge each man is better able to judge the scientific points of the battle in the various stages of it's progress, and to balance the relative merits of the two men, and to see in what periods Britt made the errors that were fatal to hims.
