Territory, which number a little
less than $4,000 in 1906, have
several times that many white
neighbors. The disparity will keep
on increasing. for while the Indian
population will bevirtually station
airy, the whites will be re-euforced
by big accessions every year from
the rest Of the country. The op.

good reasons for the faith that is

Origin OF Oklahoma

The Indian Leader published at
Haskell. Kansas has the following
item: oklahoma is a comanche
Indian word signifying the land of
the fair Cod" Rev. ]. S. Muir
row, who is considered authority
on such matters, says that the
item is incorrect in every particu-
lar. Oklahoma is a pure Choctaw
word and means "Red People"
and nothing more. Okla means
people and Hommo means red. In
joining the two words one is omit
ted. The name was given to the
country by Governor Allen Wright,
governor of the Choctaw nation in
1866 when the United States gov
ernment negotiated with all of the
five tribes to effect treaty.

New OkIahOma's Resources

Globe Democrat:-It is figured
that the present population OF the
combined communities Of Oklaho
ma and the Indian Territory is
1, $50, 600, 500, 900 OF which is in
the Oklahoma end Of the new
state The assessors returns are
the basis for these figures for Okla
hona, aud the United States Ind.
ian inspectors records give the
data for the Indian Territory.
The value of the property actually
in sight in the combined territories
is in excess of 81 900, 900, 900. If
that just under the surface of the
ground were counted in, or the
quantity of it which will be ex-
tracted in the few years immediets-
ly following the admission of these
communities to statehood, the fg-
ures would have to be put up to a
far higher line.
Thus the new Oklahoma will
start out in far better shape in
population and wealth than did any
other state at the time of its crea-
ton by congress, and also in bet.
ter shape than any of the original
thirteen had when they entered
the Union at the beginning of the
government under the constitution.
Virginia was the largest Of the
thirteen states at the beginning of
the government. but her popula-
ton waa less than half that which
the coming state of Oklahoma has
in May, 1906. None Of the ter

Virginia in 1880.

ENCAMPMENT ORGANIZED
A Party Of Chickasha Odd Fellows In
stitute Large Encampment at
Dixie.

A party of Chickasha Odd Fellows
including Grand Patriarch DR..
chas. P. Brown, Past Grand Pat
! riarch A. Haight and Past chief
Patriarch WIFI. Granlee, boarded
the Southbound Rock Island train
Saturday afternoon. and was joined
at NARROW by Past Chief Patriarch
R. S. Cox, from which place they
continued their journey to Dixie l.
I. for the purpose of instituting an
/ 0 OF .encampment. AT Conan
che they were met by Mr.J.M.Hud
low. formerly of this city, with two
teams to convey them tn their des-
tination. 20 miles southwest Of
Conanche.
The party passed through Wool
sey, small town of about so in
habitants and stopped at Loco, an
NJ to date village. beautifully locat-
ed. with many new buildings, the
best schools of any inland town in
that section of the territory, and
after P'rtakipg of supper at the
Miller Hotel, proceeded on their
way to Dixie, six miles away, ar
irving at $500 p nj. There they
were assisted by district grand de-
putty, B. S. Morse, in insulting the
largest encampment ever organized
west of Mississippi river.
The work was put on in a cred
liable manner by a team selected
from the new members, good music
being furnished by the members,
which added greatly to the work.
Dixie is small town of not over
100 people but every one of them
has heart big as the goth judicial,
district The visitors were all
well cared for, with headquarters
at the residence of Mr.: and Mrs
g w. Calvery. where the grand
Off ,ers had rooms aud were served
with a splended breakfast of spring
chicken and other delicacies dear
% a hungry man The party left
Dixie at a. m Sunday morning
and reached home yesterday alter
noon A few notes OF the trip may
be mentioned.
Hudlox is undoubtedly the best
driver who ever pulled a line over
team, managing to run into every
ditch aud over every stump within
twelve rods of the road, furnishing
the passengers beyond descrip-
tion.
The farmers east of Loco catch
the jack rabbits and wire forked
sticks, about IS inches long,'o them
to keep them out of their gardens,
while people west of town fence
against them. Lizards are numer-
GUS and some Of them are little
less than 4oinches long, all of which
is vouched for by ludlow.

Publishers Press1

Cincinnati, June 3O.-Withing a
month a plan will be outlined for the
of the receiver of the G. H.
& D., and the Pere Marquette, and
their return to the control of the Erie
railroad, says the Cleveland Leader.
Plans are working in that direction
and it is expected that inside
of two weeks some definite action will
be taken by which the intention of the
Erie railroad to take over those prop
critics will be thoroughly understood.
A good many rumors have been
abroad concerning this transaction
during the last few weeks, but none
of them has been authentic. The first
actual news of the situation was OBJ
tanned yesterday. 1t is now known
beyond peradventure that the Erie is
again making all preparations for TAX
ing charge of those properties.

ATE Fifteen BANANAS
IN JUST FOUR MINUTES

Upton, Ind, June 80, (Spl)-
Several young fellows were gath
cred at Shops place today and
the conversations covered every
thing from mathematics to astron-
omy. Finally the question of eat
ing bananas was touched and
there was a dispute as to ones
ability to devour a given number
of them in a certain time.
Mount told a story of what he
had done as an exterminator of
the fruit and there was a good
deal of doubts as to the truthful
ness of the assertion. Finally Mr..
Mount agreed to wager a dollar
that he knew what he was talking
about and a wager was arranged.
He was to eat fifteen bananas in
four minutes, and that number of
the largest ones was selected for
him. A time keeper was secured
and Mr.. Mount opened fire. He
performed the feat, won the dollar
and had enough time to spare to
light fresh cigar.

PROMISE MADE FOR YET GREAT
Err THINGS COMMERCIALLY IN
THE FISCAL YEAR THAT BE-
GINS TODAY.
Publishers Pressl

New York, June 30-R. G. Dunn
and Company's weekly review of trade
issued.today said:
Today closes the most successful
fiscal year in the nations history thus
FAR, and optimism is SO general
throughout the commercial world that
the next twelve months period prom
ises to carry the high water mark still
higher. With few exceptions the crops
are making good progress and the
new year will start with more bust
ness on the books of manufacturing
concerns and greater enterprises and
undertakings in contemplation than
on any previous July /. Scarcely any
labor struggles of Importance exist
and there is no imitation of securities
through speculative operations with
borrowed money. These are some OF
the reasons for the confidence in the
future. Trade reports for the week in
dictate seasonable disposition to
curtail wholesale business, but even
this summer influence Is less disquiet
ing than usual. More new scales have
been signed by which wages will be

for interest and dividends at this cen

100000, which Is about $40, 100000 lar

adverse reports of the week Is the
delay to rebuilding San Francisco by
the high price of labor and the tardi-
ness of some insurance settlements.
Foreign commerce at this port for the
last week shows gains of $3,722,441 in
imports and s1,249,145 in exports as

MANY MAD DOG SCARES
STATE OFFICERS INQUIRY
Dogs Supposed to Have Been AZ
fiicted With Rabies-WilI be Ex-
amined Free.

Richmond has in past summers had
numerous mad dog scares and fire.
quently animals have been killed
which were believed to be suffering
from genuine rabies.
The State Board of Health is pre-
pairing to pay special attention this
summer to supposed cases of hydro
phobia. DR.. Helene Knabe, assistant
State bacteriologist, has just returned
from a visit to Eastern laboratories,
where she made some special study
under expert chemists. DR.. Knabe
saw some of the best known special
lists in the country at work on the
heads of dogs that were supposed to
have had rabies.
\ The theory in treating hydrophobia
is first to examine the head of the
dog that is supposed to be afflicted
The State Board invites people who
know of animals suspected of having
rabies to kill the animals and send in
the heads.

STORY OF d. n"
TEN DAYS AT ONE HOTEL
Never Offered to Settle the Bill and
Was Disguised When Asked to do
so-Left the Hotel in his Anger and
Never Returned. ----

The Immortal J. NJ who died at
Toledo this week, was in former
years a frequent visitor to Richmond
and he was well known to many peo-
pie, especially to railroaders and no.
tel proprietors. The custom of never
paying for anything, which made him
famous everywhere, was always in
evidence when j. n. came to Rich
mond, and on one of his trips twenty
years ago he was at the Huntington
Hotel ten days before his identity
was fixed and before it was realized
he never troubled himself about
board.
J. H. Philbroks was at that time
the proprietor of the Huntington ho-
tel and when he realized he had a
famous but Improbable guest in the
house, he took J. N. aside and asked
him what he intended to do about
liquidating the ten days's account,
j. N. was surprised. He always was
when interrupted in his daily reveries
by any person who sought payment
for anything. WELL" said ]. N. Il
had never thought that you had ex-
pected pay for my little soiourn. and
now to show you how keen my dis
appointment in you is, I will leave
your hotel and never come again.
J. N. did as he said. but he never
settled the bill and of course Mr..
Philbrooks never expected that he
would, but he was compelled to take
some action to cause the immortal
to proceed on his way.

WAYNE COUNTY'S RATING.
THE WHEAT PRODUCTION
Declared That 1t is one of 100 coun-
ties Producing $4,000 Bushels of
Wheat-President Everett is Hope
full of the Future.

In communication received by the
Palladium from j. A. Everett, presi-
dent of The American Society of
Equity, Indianapolis, Ind, he says that
Wayne County is one of 120 in the
winter wheat states of the country
that produces 100000 bushels or more
of wheat.
President Everitt continuing says:
These 120 counties produce nearly
half of the winter wheat, and if the
farmers in them will refuse to market,
or will market slowly after harvest,
the price will surely be forced to s1.OO
at Chicago.
"One dollar is the price set for the
1906 crop if it is large one. If ma
terial damage occurs to spring wheat
to make tho crop short the price will
be set higher and notice given"
