Fire Marshal Reports That Test Show
 ed Standard to be Good.
 Fire Marshal Gladwin yesterday morning gave out the result of his in- vestigation of the quality of kerosene oil sold in this city. The marshal did not make a formal report or statement as was generally expected but said that the product of one firm had been found below the legal standard, and that he had reported this case to the city at torney.
 The marshal states that the tests by Professor Wells, of the Sheffield Scien- tiflc school, demonstrated that the oil of the Standard Oil company sold in this city was fully up to the require ments of the law, averaging 1101a de- grees in tests for the flash point. The Standard oil company submitted sam ples of kerosene oil for the tests, and the marshal collected other samples of the oil sold by this company from gro- cety stores in different parts of the city. It was found to be uniformly up to the standard.
 The ValVoline Oil company product was of very poor quality, averaging about 9S degrees at the flash point. The Valvoline company and the Standard oil company are the only wholesalers supplying the local trade
 T have notified the city attorney of my finding" said Marshal Gladwin, but no action will probably be taken, as the Valvoline company is perfectly willing to do as I suggested and will recall the oil now in the grocery stores"
 Assistant City Attorney Hoyt stated that Fire Marshal Gladwin had report ed the result of his investigation to him, but that he would take no steps unless requested to do by the fire mar shal.

STOCK MARKET FEATURES
(continued from Seventh Page.)

 The sharp break in the market lead many persons in Wall street to recall that well known operator has been in Washington for some days. This man was reported last week to have gotten out of most of his long stock, and to be now short of the market
 As a whole the stock market closed in much demoralization, and at the lowest prices. It hardly need be said that the cause of such an overrun in prices was not primarily any fear of
 radical railway ligislation, but the creation of market honeycombed
 with weak spots as result of the re- cent eXtravagant speculation.
 Amalgamated was about the only strong higher speculative stock yester- day All sorts of reports were current 1 to explain the move It is probable that considerabl eshort interest was forced to cover.
 The semi-official statement is made that the new Corn Products pf. will
 be permanent per cent. issue. There was a great deal of discussion yesterday about the break in Reading in all, some twenty points from the top price, which was $64 The street was quite generally agreed that the ef-
 forts to put this stock up much were over; that no operator is likely to buy the stock at any such eXtravagant fig ures as one comparatively new man. in large financial operations was al- l legged to have done. A member of the bull pool made the admission yester- day that the price went higher in the
 recent rise than he ever expected it to
 do.
 Rock Island stock rose on the news
 of the December earnings of the par i ent company and of the "Frisco;' also on the fact that this years i'm provements are now provided for en- ] tirely in the new issue of per cent refunding bonds. The gross increase of the two lines was about $930,0 l and the net gain over $500,00O. The two systems show a net gain for six
 months of $545,321. There was very i good buying in the preferred stock tc l above 65.
 It was lively contest between bulls and bears in the first part of the day International Power made another characteristic advance from 75 to 95 | It dropped to S2 in the smash, but showed a net gain of points for the l day.
 Transactions in bonds yesterday in- cluded $S2,000 Interborough-M -Metropoli- i tan 1-2s, at 94-941a; S16,000 Interna- tional Salt 5s at "A B %75; $20,000 East ern Steel 6s at S9% -901s; S7,000 Stand ard Milling 5s at S1 B -S0&; S400 New Haven S1S S at 117h, and $2S000 Amer ican Steel 6s at 90% -90A.

WALTER SMITH
IN REBELLION

About one year ago Walter Smith
whose home is not far from South
west City,was confined in in the ward
for insane'at the federal jail here, but
was turned over to his folks upon their
own request and assurance that
they could take care Of him, since
which time they did so until day be-
fore yesterday, when he became ugly
and locked his father and mother in a
room of the house, barricaded the
doors, and refused to let them come
out or any one go in.
Mrs. Lon Conner, who is visiting at
Southwest City heard Of the occurrence
and this morning telephoned the part
icnlaTs to the marshalS Office. A re-
quest was sent from the marshals
Office to the effect that enough men
to peaceably 0verpower the demented
man, 90 out TO the place, capture him
and bring him to Vinita.

"|NJUN' EXPRESSES
HIS OWN OPINION
On Question Of Delegate to Constitu.
tiOnaI ConventiOn--FernenSt Hitch
cock and Bixby

If that movement is successful and
it can result in a decision that the
agreement of 1902 must be upheld ap-
proximatelY 5000 babies will be denied
the right to allotments of half mil
lion acres of land, or to share in three
and half million dollars due or to be-
come due the forty thousand other
Cherokees who are protected (?l by
said treaty. No doubt there are but
few protected" Cherokees who would
begrudge these babies this right, but
the time has come when the validity
Of the treaty should be shown.
Does it mean what it says, or did we
go to the trouble and expense Of rati-
flying something which is to be used
against us as a joke? If it is legal and
binding on the United States then by
what right are ten thousand Of us
harrassed and worried to death
through fear of losing, and the expense
Of lighting contests against, our guar
anteed allotment selections?
Who wants to make himself the
best appreciated and mosr highly
honored man in the new state by
proving the validity Of that treaty,
securing the order to let the closed
rolls stay closed, and another to wipe
off the records and cancel every con-
test case illegally brought after the
expiration Of nine months from the
date the contested land was selected?
That's treaty, but it isn't Hitchcock
or Bixby.
The treaty agreement is an act OF
congress. If it is fool act it's up to
congress to change it with the con-
sent of the other party to the agree
ment) but not within the province Of
either Hitchcock or Bixby.
Wake up! Some Of you ambitious,
glory-hunting gentlemen, and go to
the on an easy proposition like this
No matter what your polite, here's
my vote, and a guarantee Of at least
ten thousand more. INJUN.

DRINKS FOR THE SUMNER
Good Reason Why Drinks Containing
Carbonic Acid Gas Are
So Popular

The London Lancet, discussing
"efferyescing beverages" agrees re.
garding their extensive use among all
classes.
Probably 1t says, there are two
reasons for 1t. First Of all, carbonic
acid gas gives piquancy to beverage,
briskness to it and an acid taste.
and, second, there are reasons for be
lieving that the effervescent proper
ties Of a liquid promote digestion In
two ways; first, by the carbonic acid
acting as stimuIant to the move
ments Of the stomach, and. second by
assisting in the disintegration Of the
contents Of the stomach
On the other hand, however, 1t may
be undesirable to distend the stomach
with so much gas, as 1t may lead to
the embarrassment of action of a
weak heart and may even poison the
blood by the direct absorption Of the
gas by the stomach. In such cases,
therefore, such beverages should be
avoided. 1t is the question, then. Of
mere immoderation in use that causes
real trouble.

Oh, for David Goliath we have
had with us for many days. Or for a
Daniel to come into Judgment. Or,
better still, an up-to-date lawyer with
Just enough honesty left in his make
up to make him feel that virtue car
ries with it its own reward. Poor
pay for an up-to-date lawyer, true
enough; but look at the fun he could
have. Never has there been such an
opportunity for a man Of genius to
create a sensation, cause consterna-
tion and wreck havoc among the
grating ''camp-followers" 5" Of the
powers that be. And it looks easy,
too. l suggest here a plan through
which the humblest jurist in the
land might win enough heartfelt
gratitude from long-suffering, IL
legally harrassed people to place him
in the executive chair of the new
state for as many terms as he might
care to serve.
The government has always held
that an Indian treaty should be full
filed according TO the Indians under
standing Of it. Is the treaty agree
ment with the Cherokees in 1902 to
be an exception? Already there
eems to be movement on foot to
Nestrain the commissioner to the five
ilized tribes from opening the
herokee rolls and placing thereon
e names of several thousand peo-
Is explicitly barred from such priv
lge by that treaty agreement. Has
Congress- any legal right TO authorize
IAe reopening Of the rolls after their
acceptance Of an agreement ratified
bg the Cherokee people with the full
aEd express understanding that from
and after October 81, 1902, no applica-
ton for enrolment should be accept
sa or considered, and that the Chero-
bee rolls should be completed as
ssainst all persons who we're not en-
tiled to enrolment on or before
ptember /, 1902?

Unnecessary Fear Of lightning.

There is something SO intangible
about the bolt from the clouds that the
reasoning faculties Of certain people
seem to be suspended during thunder
storms. They shrink from the mys-
terious power even though it may be
shown that more people die from the
bite Of the common house cat than
from lightning. Such has been the case
in the past. Another reason for the
common fear of lightning is our un-
familiarity with it, If thunder storms
happened every day Of the year we
should probably lose our fears. Tnber-
culosis kills more men than war and
we do not spend che millions for fight
ing it that we do in preparing coast
defenses and erecting great navies.
People do not like to 90 to war be-
cause they may get killed, but they run
risks just as great in insanitary condi-
tions at home to which they give no
thought.
