Oklahoma City, o. T., July 15.-The
resolutions adopted by the statehood
convention follow:
I'VE, the one thousand delegates
representing the million and a half
American citizens who reside in OK
lahoma and Indian Territories, do
hereby declare, in convention as
sembled. that said territories are en-
titled to and of right ought to be i'm
mediately admitted into the Ameri-
can Union as one free and important
state, on terms of equality as be-
tween themselves, and on an equal
footing with the other states.
'SWe have but one petition and one
request to present to the American
congress, and that is that immediate
Joint statehood be granted to Oklaho-
ma and Indian Territories, on their
own merits and without reference to
any right or claim of other territories
seeking admission to the American
Union
"In support of the foregoing decla-
ration. we offer the following reasons:
"First--Our area is sufficient.
The average area of all states west
of the Allegheny mountains is $4,000
square miles; of those states west OF
the Mississippi, $4,000 square miles.
We have 70,400 square miles.
Second - Our population is suffi-
cient The population of each terri
tory is 100000. Our combined popu-
lation is 5OO,00O-four times as
many as any state has had at the
time of it's admission, and equal to
the average population of all the
states now in the Union, and we are,
therefore, entitled to seven members
of the lower house of congress.
Third = Our resources are suffi-
cient. We have property subject to
taxation worth a billion dollars. We
have 100000 acres of coal lands and
we produce bituminous coal of quail

FROM SAME BOX
Where the Foods Come From.

"Look here, waiter, honest now,
don't you dip every one of these faxed
breakfast foods out of the same box?"
well, yes, boss, We duz, all 'cept
Grape Nuts, cause that don't look like
the others and people know 'zackly
what Grape-Nuts looks like. But
there's bout a dozen different ones
named on the bill of fare and they are
all thin rolled flakes so it don't make
any difference which one man calls
for, we just take out the order from
one box"
This talk led to an investigation.
Dozens of factories sprung up about
three years ago, making various kinds
of breakfast foods, seeking to take the
business of the original prepared
breakfast food-Grape-Nut These
concerns after a precarious existence.
nearly all failed, leaving thousands of
boxes of their foods in mills and ware
houses. These were in several In
stances bought up for song by spec
ulators and sold out to grocers and
hotels for little or nothing. The proc
ess of working off this old stock has
been SLOW One will see the names
on menus of faxed foods that went
out of business year and half or
two years ago. In few cases where
the abandoned factories have been
bought up, there is an effort to resus-
citate the defunct, and by copying the
style of advertising of Grape-Nuts,
seek to influence people to purchase.
But the public has been educated to
the fact that all these thin faxed
foods are simply soaked wheat or oats
rolled thin and dried out and packed.
They are not prepared like Grape
Nuts, in which the thorough baking
and other operations which turn the
starch part of the wheat and barley
into sugar, occupy many hours and re-
suit in food so digestibie that small
infants thrive on II, while 1t also con-
tains the selected elements of Phos-
phate of Potash and Albumen that
unite in the body to produce the SOFT
gray substance in brain and nerve
centers. There's reason for Grape
Nuts, and there have been many imi-
tations, a few of the article itself. but
many more Of the kind and character
of the advertising. Imitators are al
ways counterfeiters and their printed
and written statements cannot be ex-
pected to be different than their
goods.

Admires Japanese Architecture.

Frederick w. Vanderbilt. the least
conspicuous member Of the family,
has a strong liking for Japanese archi-
lecture. He followed the lead Of Mrs.
w. X. Vanderbilt, Jr., in having all
his Adirondack camps rebuilt in the
style that prevails in chrysanthemum
land. After Mrs. Willie X. had her
camp on Blue lake built over by Jap
anese architects and workmen at
large cost she never used it, but her
husbands uncle not only lived in this
Oriental camp, but has just had two
more buildings of similar character
put up on his preserve.

1T had been teaching in the city

James, whose recent return to the work
from which she was driven by nervous
collapse has attracted attention. "They

ga bare chance and lot of faith led
me to cure. After had suffered for
many months, and when was on the
very verge Of despair, happened to read
an account of some cures effected by
DR.. Williams Pink Pills. The state
ments were so convincing that some
how felt assured that these pills would
help me. Most people, think, buy only
one box for a trial, but purchased six
boxes at once, and when had used
them up, was indeed well and had no
ueed of more medicine.
'Dr. Williams Pink Pills enriched my
thin blood, gave me back my sleep, re-
stored my appetite, gave me strength to
walk long distances without fatigue, in
fact freed me from all my numerous all
ments. I have already taught for several
months, and / cannot say enough in
praise of DR.. Williams Pink Pills"
Miss Margaret NJ. James is now living
at No. 1873 Clay street, Dayton, Ohio.
Many of her fellow teachers have also
used DR.. Williams Pink Pills and are
enthusiastic about their merits. Sound

Caused From Explosion Of Damp Fire
In Coal Fields.
MUCH MACHINERY IS WRECKED.
Smoke and Dust Fill Up Entrance and
Make the Work Of the Rescue Party
sIow-Herolc Measures Are seins
Used.

Cardiff, Wales, July 10. = An ex-
plosion of fire damp in No. 2 pit OF the
United Colliery Company at Watts
town, in the Rhondda valley, the cen
ter of the great Welsh coal fields, is
believed to have resulted in the loss
of at least 100 lives.
The explosion was followed imme
diately by the belching OF clouds o.
smoke and dust from the pit shaft, II
which $50 men were working. The
force of the explosion wrecked the
machinery at the mouth of the pit.
All communication with the doomed
men in this direction is completely
cut off. No. 1 shaft, adjoining, has
ordinarily afforded communication
with No. 2. The 800 men in No. l
and the few who escaped from No. 2
were drawn up. A rescue party de-
scended, but it's work was seriously
impeded by the foul air and the fall
ing masses of earth dislodged by the
explosion.
Heroic measures have been made
for hours to reach the entombed men
but late tonight the absence of all
sound from the interior of the mine
told the tale of the greatest disaster
that has taken place in South Wales
since 1894.
The news of the explosion spread
rapidly and hundreds Of women and
children and thousands of men
thronged the head of the pit. seeking
information. The mountain roadways
were covered all the afternoon and
there are now streams of people in
the neighborhood of the mine.

inscription, Welcome, Your Ma

Whereupon his majesty, laughing,
said: THAT is rather too much po-

Fourteen of the 273 persons who
graduated from the Missouri state
university this year received their
diplomas from the agricultural de-
partment. Up to this year the larg'
est class that ever graduated from
this department contained just four
persons. This in itself is a potent
commentary upon the new interest
that is being shown in agricultural
education.
