Miller Brothers, at Their 101 Ranch,
Near Bliss, Okla, Entertain $4,000
People at Buffalo Hunt and Indian
eIebration-Stage Robbery and
Parade of Indians.

Bliss Okla, June 12.-Fifty thou
sand people were entertained by Mil
Ter Brothers, at the 101 ranch Sun
day, the visit of the National Editorial
association to the ranch being made
the occasion for the buffalo hunt, a
buffalo dinner and an Indian celebra-
ton. The editors, many of whom were
accompanied by ladies, arrived on the
ranch at II o'clock over the Santa Fe
in special train.
The general public Lad been invited
to the entertainment The Santa Fe
railroad, which runs through the
ranch carried 10000 people to 1O1, and
as many more drove in to attend the
show. An immense grandstand extend
ing around the arena was built for the
visitors. The arena itself was half a
mile long and third of mile wide.
To handle the crowd required nearly
200 passenger coaches.
The Ponca and Otoe Indians, whose
lands are being allotted, had planned a
celebration to take place some time
during the spring, to which they ex-
pected to invite all the other Indians
in the territory to help them celebrate
the dissolution of their tribal territory.
This was arranged to take place at
the same time of the editors visit.
The ranch bought 35 head of buffalo
in Montana, and planned a buffalo
chase by the Indians. Each one of the
special guests, and there were not less
than 1000, was served with a piece of
buffalo meat in connection with the
dinner. Besides the buffalo the pro-
gram included wild west show with
roping and riding contests, Indian
dances, a stage robbery and NINA
ture reproduction of the rush into the
Cherokee strip. The program also in
cluded a parade beginning with the
Indian, attired tn paint and feathers,
followed by the OK team and prairie
schooner, and ending with an automo-

kitchen, the invention Of a Missouri
man, Is shown in the illustration. It
Is made in two sections, the upper SEQ
ton being DIVIDED into four principal
compartments by means of three verti-
cal partitions. One Of these compart-
ments Is again divided in a series Of
subcompartments by horizontal part-
tons, while the two center sections are
formed into very small drawers for
storing spices, salt or cereals, etc. The
lower section of the cabinet Is also
divided into drawers and compart-
ments Of any suitable size and for any
purpose that may be desired. By an
ingenious device Of the inventor the
drawers for the storage Of cereals are
fitted with an attachment for pouring
out the quantity required. A slidabls
table Is also fitted between the sec
tons. It Is obvious that this cabinet
would be of great benefit to the house
wife, as It would not take up very
much space, while everything needed
would be together. Another advant-
age would be the imposslbility of bugs
of any kind getting into the food.

NEW WONDERS OF ELECTRICITY.

In electricity there is nothing more
interesting than it's application to
steam railways. Engineers Of high
standing believe that the day is neal
at hand when most Of tie larger rail-
ways will dispense with steam locomo-
dves and employ electrical motive
power. either by motors fed from third
rails or overhead conductors, or by
electric locomotives. However this
may be. electricity is already coming
Into use ON steam railways. The New
York Central is spending forty million
dollars for electrificatio ton of its metro
politin terminal. partly fer the pur-
pose Of dispensing with smoke and
coal gas in the tunnels. and partly to
obtain higher speed Of trains.
1t is easy even for a layman to un.
derstand the superiority of electricity
as motive power in urban and SUBJ
urban transportation. With a locomo
tive. traction is secured from the
weight Of the driving wheels. With
i the mult1ple-unit system the weight Of
every car in the train may, if desired.
be put upon the drivers In service
with frequent stops. speed is secured
by high rate Of acceleration, and a
rapid acceleration requires power and
weight. In New York's new subway
train Of eight cars will carry motors
which may. at any desired moment,
exert tractive force equal to that Of
half dozen large steam locomotives.
OF great promise is the motor which
uses an alternating current without
sub-stato transformers. If it proves
entirely successful. it will introduce a
large economy in all electrical railway
operation. The application Of electri-
cal railway devices to all sorts of in
dustrialism affords material for a book
all by itself, ranging, as it does, from
the great electrical locomotive and the
huge overhead crane to the broiling of
beefsteak or curling of my lady's
hair by means Of the magic current
In almost every workshop electrical
tools may be found. In these, and in
compressed-air appliances, may be
found the greatest advance in shop
mechanics during the decade. There
Is new automatic or mechanical tele-
graph sender, transmitting messages
forty times as fast as a human opera
tor. In fact it is well known that
science and invention have, during the
last ten years, made telegraphy 50
easy and cheap that, If we had in this
country government or postal tele-
graph instead of semi-public compa-
MES, short letters could be sent By
wire almost as cheaply as by post
Unless l read incorrectly the signs Of
the times, postal telegraphy is imm1-
nent in America; it is demanded by
progress, and progress cannot be de-
MED. The automatic telephone is COM
ing rapidly into use, and promises to
carry the convenience Of telephone
communication to hundreds Of thou
sands who cannot now afford it. The
rural telephone Is growing at an amaz-
ing rate, too. and already scores of
thousands of American farmers have
the phone in their houseA-Walter

France.

Baron Alphonse de Rothschild, who was
so kind and generous, had not forgotten the
poor and needy in the wishes which he eX-
pressed before his death. Three million
francs are to be devoted by his heirs to the
foundation Of a charity which is to bear his
name, and to which all, without distinction
of creed, will be eligible Besides this more
than handsome sum, he has bequeathed
eight thousand pounds to the Academy of
Fine Arts for the creation of a prize; ten
thousand pounds to the Jewish hospital,
eight thousand pounds to the Jewish relief
committee, four thousand pounds for dow
ries to the daughters of employees of the
Northern Railway Company, and various
smaller sums to the poor of Ferreres, Pont-
carre and Lugny. Nor, is believed, is the
long list even now complete.

England.

The annual conference of the constituent
societies forming the Jewish Literary Union
took place recently in London. The pro-
ceedings commenced on Saturday morning
with a special service OF the Central syna-
gogue whilst the greater part of Sunday was
devoted to discussion of various matters of
literary interest, the meetings being held at
the Hotel Great Central At the opening
session, on Sunday morning, DR.. Nj. Fried
lander, the chairman (prncipal of Jews
cOllege). welcomed the delegates. who num-
bered some hundreds and came from all
parts of England. The annual report was
presented by Mr.. Lucien Wolf, the presi-
dent, who pointed out that thirty-nine socie-
ties were now enrolled representing almost
every important section Of the Jewish pop
ulation of the United Kingdom. At the af-
1ernOCn session it was resolved that the
union should cooperate with the Jewish
Historical Society in collecting. examining.
and preserving the eXtant records and arch
ives dealing with the early history of Jew
sh communities in the British Empire. In
the evening large and representative gath
ering assembled at dinner. In proposing
health to the Union of Jewish Literary So
cieties,' the chairman said that the Jewish
community in England, Jagged behind those
the continent There was a time when
every synagogue was almost literary So
ciety and the task of the union was in
measure to bring back the old state of
things, to preach sort of literary epicuran-
ism by calling into play the intellectual fac
utleS of the community. Sir Phlllp Magnus,
the newly-elected president, responded and
Prof. J. II. Hollander of the Johns Hopkins
University, also spoke. He said that in the
United States there no exact counter
part of the union. He doubted whether in
that geographical area it was possible, but
there were two organizations. the Jewish
Publication Society and the Jewish Chauau-
qua Society. which were in measure en-
deavoring to do similar work. New masses
had arrived with economic resources and
with artistic possibility and incorporating
that mass of newly arrived Jews into the
body of American Jewry the confront

The Toxic correspondent of the London
Telegraph quotes an officer who has re-
turned from Manchuria as saying that Gen
Cral Linivtch'S troops were greatly de-
pressed by the news of the disaster to Ad-
mral ROjestvensky's fleet. The officers
have become Indifferent and the men do not
conceal their dstaste for their duties. All
the Poles and Jews, in the army says this
correspondent, are practically mutinOus.

lagos to advancing toward the enemys
lines. Whenever they find an opportunity
they throw up their hands and surrender.

Letters have also come from the Jews
charging the police with preparing for a
Jewish massacre"
The governor then declares that such ac-
ton is impossible and will not be permitted,
but he adds:
THE governor is aStOniShed at the Jews
addressing such letters to him, seeing that
it is the Jews themselves who caused all
the disorders. The police invariably found
revOlvers, bombs and prohibited literature
in Jewish houses. But for the Jews there
would be no disturbances and no Kniaz Po-
temiine affair. Now the Jews have the i'm
pertinence to bring charges against the po-

Count Ignatieff, in receiving a deputation
of Jews from thirty-siX towns in southern
Russia, who came to him to appeal for pro-
lection, replied to their entreaties by say
ing:

ment doctrine AN eye for an eye and tooth

A special meeting of the ST Petersburg
Jewish community held on the Sd inst,
at the synagogue, to consider the proposed
exclusion of the Jews from participation
in representative government should that

mOrS to the exclusion of the Jews, and
called upon those present to express their
views on the subject. One speaker after an
other dwelt on the incalcuable injury that
would be done to the Jews by such a deci'
sion. They believed that everyone with the
slightest spark of honor and dignity would
express their deep Indignation and protest
against extraordinary and unjusifiable
a deprivation of the rights of citizenship.
After considerable discussion. resolution
was adopted in which it declared that
such a restriction of rights would be IAN
uneXampled outrage on elementary justice
against a class of the population numbering
G.OOO ,O0O which is closely bound up with the
whole life of the country and bears its full
share of the national burdens and RESPONSE
blitieS." In the anticipation that reStric-
tiOn of the rights of the Jews would provoke
an agitation and would constitute new OBJ
stacle to the pacificatiOn of the Jewish pOpu
IatiOn, the meeting looked to the best ele-
ments of Russian society in the assurance
that such deprivation of the franchise of
a whole people will meet with a unanimous
and sharp condemnation The resolution

which, when posted in the city, may have
the effect of increasing the already bitter

and more ignorant classes of the population.

A few hours later the scouts report

Admiral Togo Immediately steamed

he saw the Russians coming in two
columns. He then brought terrific
fire to bear on the flank of the port

vessel that flew the Japanese flag.
Repeated torpedo attacks were de.
