DEMAND FoR 4oLD PRINrs.v
Are Imported in Vast Quantities
Trick Of Washington Dealer.

"Old prints" are now a very fash
ionable decoration, and the real thing
is almost impossible to obtain. But
as demand invariably breeds supply,
the industry of manufacturing old
prints while you wait has taken it's
place with the manufacture of other
sorts of antiques. This is an infant
industry, not properly protected in
this country. and the result is that
the manufacture fiourishes abroad,
and the prints are imported in vast
quantities. They are very good pieces
Of work, too, for those who like that
sort Of decoration, though the draw
ing and the coloring are by no means
up to the standard of modern realism
One of the curious happenings of
the custom house that brought out
some of the facts connected with this
industry occurred recently when one
of the dealers in Washington under
took to import a large collection Of
''old' prints for sale. They were good
enough to have gotten by the GUS
toms collector as the real thing. The
paper was old in texture. and care
fully discolored, and the pictures
were as ungainly in drawing and un'
certain in coloring as the most exact
ing amateur critic could have desired.
The dealer, in order to impart a color
of realism to the proceeding, under
took to import them as genuine an
tiques. But he found, when it came
to settling the bill, that the tariff
would be several times as heavy were
they listed as genuine as it would be
on modern works. So he 'fessed
up" and not only admitted that the
old prints were thoroughly modern
but produced the documents to
nrove t.

USING DEPARTMENT PHONES.
A Business Man Thinks the Rule 10
Too Rigidly Observed.

1T strikes me that in some Of the
departments they are enforcing the
no telephoning' rule a trife too rigid
ly," said a Washington business man
to reporter.
Il had occasion to telephone down
to the postoffice department the other
day on business regarding the inter-
ests of surety company in which |
am interested, and which goes on the
bonds of large class of the employees
in the postal service.
This is, of course, strictly official
business, and there was nothing per-
sonal about it, One of the clients of
the company in a western state wrote
us that there was some trouble with
his bond, and as we are the Washing
ton representatives it was our duty to
communicate with the department and
ascertain the facts. But when / en-
deavored to get telephone connection
with the division where this business
is transacted, and | could have OBJ
tanned the necessary information no
where else in the department, | was
informed that it was against the rules
to make such connection, although
/ expressly stated the nature Of my
business.
In consequence | had to leave my
Office and make the trip to this division
on foot, and / wasted an hour where
five minutes time or less over the
telephone would have cleared the mat
ter up.
while am aware that perhaps the
telephone service by clerks and their
friends outside of the departments
has been abused, and because thereof
the general rule against these con-
nections has been promulgated, ! fail
to see why the government cannot,
when necessary, be communicated
with by telephone through its official
when business men or
others have official business Herewith,
Just the same as business house. 1t
is certainly an unnecessary waste of
time to require persons having bust
ness thus easily settled in such in
stances to make personal journeys to
the departments where it is trans
acted Questions, the answers to
which do not require long research on
the part of the clerks, can be an
swered just as readily over the tele-
phone as in the personal presence of
the business man at the department
and think in such instances as l am
referring to the rule is contracted to
limits"

STRENUOUS TIME

tContlnued from Rage 4.
They have been united on but two
propositions, their desire forotiice anu
their determination to eliminate the
negro, as far as possible, from all par
ticipation In the government Of the
state Of Oklahoma. They have the
offices and what they will do to the
negro can be easily conjectured.
But, when it comes to the other
points of the constitution, the differ
ences between the two cliques are al
most certain TO cause trouble. There
isn't town in either territory where
local disturbances have not been
many and serious between the two
branches, and these differences of
opinion are likely to become more
pronounced as the work of writing a
constitution progresses
The corporations are already be-
coming active. Their Hobbies are al
ready in Guthrie. The book trust
and Standard OIL will have special
representation, and the railroads of
course will be looked after. Some
ten or twelve Of the delegates are or
nave been railroad attorneys.
The eyes Of the entire new state
will be centered on the convention,
and it will be difficult for any dele
gate to escape the responsibility for
his votes.

the Indians receive but $40 monthly.
Mr.. Finley said there is not Peoria

have their restrictions removed en-
tirely,
John Wadsworth, the Oldest Peor-
la, corroborated what Mr. Finley had
said. lie stated, however, that rather
than that they should be permitted
to sell their land and have the pro-
ceeds dolled out at the rate Of $40 per
month. he would prefer to see condi-
tions remain just as they are.
d. II. Wilson Of this city related an
attempt Of his to buy some Quapaw
land under the order Of the court, and
of Mr.. Hitchcock's action in refusing
TO sanction the deed.
IL Is possible that the entire time
Of the committee today will be taken
up IN listening to complaints Of the
Indians present. Representatives Of
TIE various commercial clubs are pres

right Of way.
Tonight from to0 O'Clock a pub

she was out of her place, for if any wo-

If l was she | would comb my hair
and wash my dress and patch it for l
know it needs it if her man is scab-
bling. l guess she thinks that she is
millionaire, which she is but it is a
millionrags in the air. If it isn't that
way it soon will be if her man is
scabbing. The blacklegs at Whitwell
put me in mind of Willie in the third
reader teasing Fido with piece of
bread in one hand aand club in the
other Fido came up and got the
bread in his mouth and the club on his
back. 1t won't be long until the strike
will end and Jolly will go off bowling
like Fido did. Then he will have
scab on him right. He will go off
bowling and no one will pity him for
he ought to know how cruel compa-
ny can be- Fido did not know h ow
cruel Willie was but there is not much
| difference between some men and

come out of their heads is what COM

that takes the obligations that they

The Grip.

Before we can sympathize with 9th
ers, we must have suffered ourselves.
No one can realize the suffering atten =
dant upon an attack of the grip, unless
he has had the actual experience.
There is probably no disease that caus-
es so much physical and mental agony,
or which so successfully dehes medical
aid. All danger from the grip, how
ever, may be avoided by the prompt
use Of Chamberlain's Cough remedy.
Among the tens of thousands who have
used this remedy, not one case has ev-
er been reported that has resulted in
pneumonia or that has not recovered.
