VITALITY THE MAIN THING.
He Who Has 1t Pulls Through, the
Other Patient Dies.

Two men undergo operations OF the :
same character in a hospital. The
same surgeon does the work. The con- |
d1tions are identical. Equal care is ex-
ercised in each operation and each Is
successfully performed. Yet one man
RECEIVERS, the other dies. Or there Is
a tremendous business pressure which
does not let up for months. 1t puts
| the men under a terrible strain. One
man goes to pieces and his business is
wrecked. He can not keep the pace;
he loses control Of himself. His rival
has no better brains than he-perhaps
not so good-yet he pulls through sue
cessfully. We say that there is dlf'
ference in vitality, that one man has
more of it than the other, says writer
in the Worlds Work.

was suffering from five fatal diseases

HOMESTEAD LEASES STAND
Buyers in the Oklahoma Pasture Lands
Barred From Farmers
Claims

Lawton, Ok, July 24.-All
leases in the big pasture held by
farmers as farm homesteads have
been confirmed by the secretary of
the interior. Such leases are to
hold over any selection Of allotment
that may be taken BY Indians for
their infants born since 1900, and
over any purchase that may be
made when this one-half million
acres is thrown open to settlement
next fall.
John P. Blackman, Of Anadarko
Indian agent and his allotting force
and corps Of surveyors, will enter
the pasture reserve this week to al
lot the Indians their land and to
survey and plat the government
townsites which will be located in

BUYS BRUNSWICK POOL HALL

Prince Btothers have purchased
from Adolph Lewis. the Brunswick
Pool and Billiard Hall on Chicka-

deal was closed Saturday night and
the former gentlemen took charge
yesterday morning. Mr.. Lewis has
returned to his home in Oklahoma
City.
The Prince brothers have been
residents of the ciry for some little
time and have made themselves
friends who will doubtless give
them a large patronage in their
new business. The equipment
which they purchased from Mr..
Lewis is of the best, the cues are
alwys kept in the best of shape
and devotees OF the gentlemen's
game can enjoy the sport under
the most favorable circumstances.
They will continue to handle full

IMPORTANT SCHOOL MATTERS
Several Changes in Text Books New
High School Teacher
Elected

The text book committee of the
school board met this morning and
agreed to recommend the following
changes in text books. Freys
biographies, CHM & Co. publishers
in place of the Natural Geograph-
les; Reed & Kelloggs grammar,
Maynard Merrill & Co., in place
of Metcalfs grammar, and Reeds
spelling book, published by the
same company. All of the displaced
books are published by the Amer
ican Book Co. The changes were
made upon recommendation Of
superintendent and teachers and
because it was believed the new
books are superior to the old ones.
The contract with the companies
provides for exchange of books
and will result in a saving to the
people.
The committee on teachers also
met and agreed to recommend Miss
Mineola Johnson for a position ir
the high school. Two cUlored
teachers we're also selected.
A proposition is being considered
to secure the Carnegie library for
the high school next year and the
superintendent and board think
very favorably of the plan. Sew
eral additional rooms will be re-
quired to accommodate the atten'
dance.

FROM ENUMERAT0RS OF NINE
TENTH RECORDING DISTRICT
AND SENT TO MUSKOGEE
POPULATION is NEARLY $4,000
Guessing on the Districts Ambitions
Towns Preparing for County
Seat Fight

Returns from the census enum-
orators for the nineteenth record
ing district were received and tab
ulated yesterday by the executive
committee appointed for that pur-
pose. The total population Of the
district according to these reports
is aI, 763 and it is believed thar the
returns arc as nearly accurate as
any census hurriedly taken could
be. In some instances the enumera-
tors reported the name of every
family in the township assigned to
them, while in Others only the to-
tai was reported as this was all
that Judge Clayton desired. The
reports were tabulated and sent to
the districting board at Musko-
gee.
1t is all a guess as to how the
board will lay off the districts for
the election of delegates to the
constitutional convention. 1t has
been estimated by the board that
the total population Of the terri
tory is $50, 900 and this would give
IA 900 people for each district.
The nineteenth district therefore
falls considerably short of being
sufficient to entitle it to two dele
gates. It is generally supposed
that the Chickasha township will
be joined with some of the town
sips to the north to make a dis
trict.
1t is reported thar the population
of the new Duncan district is about
10, 900 while that of the Ryan dis
trict is about 1900. NARROW,
Comanche and duncan are prep T
ing to mix u up in a county
seat fight, and the preliminary
skirmish is alreadyon in the matter
of making the districts, NARROW and
Comanche are both scrapping Dun
can and it is believed that they
will pool interests in the selection
of delegates. The impression Is
that the town that gets a town to
fight for her in the convention will
have a big advantage over the
town less fortunate.
Lindsay is an active candidate
for delegate and a county seat.
The population Of the town and
surrounding country give her good
claims tor a delegate but the road
to a-county seat is beset with great
er difficulties. The towns that are
preparing for a county seat fight
are sending people to Muskogee 10
represent then before the board.

INVESTIGATION AT MUSK0GEE
SHOWS THE FOOT OF PRINT THE
LUMBER OCTOPUS
A CONTRACTORS TESTIMONY
Brings Out Important Evidence. Scope
Of Investigation is to be
BrOadened

Muskogee, I. T. July 23.-Ths
lumber trust investigators believed
they struck pay dirt here this af-
ternoon when they put William
Rust, a contractor and builder OF
the stand. Rust formerly owned a
lumber yard here. He testified in a
number of instances that he hac
ordered in carload lots lumber. ce
ment, and other building material
and that he had received bills ol
lading for his goods, but that later
he would be notified that he was
not in tn Association at Musko-
gee and that unless he 'joined" he
could not get material shipped tC
him. This occurred a number ol
times, Rust giving the names and
dates Of theorders and calculations
Rust testified that he finally con
cluded that he could not do bust
ness unless he went into the pool,
SO he sold out rather than join.
When he made the sale he forced
the pool 10 pay him invoice price
for all his material plus the freight
and an additional $500. When the
material was received by the pool il
was distributed to the yards in the
combine. each one taking a part Of
the stock on hand.
The attorneys pushing the trust
prosecution have decided that they
will maze il more than a local mat
ter. This afternoon a letter wa:
written to Commissioner Garfield
concerning the lumber trust alleg.
ed to exist in the southwest, and
he was asked to send a representa-.
tive here to attend the hearings in
tx nresen, case. Hs is also offered
a copy Of all the evidence that has
been taken in the case up 70 date.
That the investigation is taking
on more importance than was at
first expected,is shown in the fact
that the pool has commenced to
cut the price of lumber to the yards
in this district, or at least they are
making a lower quotation to hem.
The attorneys state that they
have a complete case against the
local lumbermen and that they will
push the prosecution as an unlaw-
full restraint of trade as soon as the
present case is completed.
