fhe Natives Often Make Dreadful
Mistakes With European Attire.
The col clo' man. is a familiar figure
In American streets and one by no
means without picturesqueness, but no
American dealer in old clothes has es-
tablished a business Of such extent of
interest as that Of John Hyman of Lon
don, whose speciality Is to purchase
snowy costumes and discarded military
and official uniforms for disposal in the
orient and Africa.
Even the retiring lord mayors Of Lon
don have become almost by official ira
dition his customers, and the cooked
hat, gold laced coat and knee breeches
ut which during n season London has
,gazed with awe in the famous pageant
Of the lord mayors procession are
likely the next season to delight the
eyes of darkest Africa upon the proud
person Of a darkest African.
II have visited most Of the great
oriental bazars and watched our goods
being purchased" says MI. Lyman. 81
have seen blacks solemnly walking
around with waistcoats buttoned be-
hind instead Of before and even men
wearing ladies' costumes. l have seen
enormously big fellows in clothes SO
small I could not imagine for the life
Of me how they got into them or how
they could get out again unless the
stitching gave way"
The Prince de Joinville when OF the
Gabun coast once received on his ship
an official visit from two chiefs, father
and son, who must, would think,
have been Mr.. Hyman's customers.
They were known as Big Denis and
Little Denis, and each owned for cere-
mon!al occasions a military uniform.
That of Big Denis was a French gen.
erals, which his wives managed to get
him into. That Of Little Denis was a
hussar's, and its intricate cut, numer-
Gus buttons, straps and buckles and
painfully small size proved quite too
much for him. BE sent the prince a
despairlng message begging help, and
a relief party of delighted midshlpmen
was sent to. dress him and bring him
aboard.
They fulfilled their errand; but, with
the mischievousness of their kind, they
so frightened every fastening Of his
overnight attire that the poor youth
was nearly bursting with combined
pride and suffocation when he arrived,
and it was evident he could never be
got out Of his unwonted fnery by any
method less drastic than cutting him
out.

In an address to the Canadian club
In Montreal, MI. James Bryce said:
II do not think it would be advisable
for me to say much, for l have the
good fortune to be a Scotchman my
self. l won't pursue the theme of
what contributions Scotchmen should
be able to make to Canada's litera-

reason which was given by a friend
Of mine, who said, 4 never argue with

THE OKLAHOMANS.
CFrom Wednesdays Daily)

They came, they saw and they
we're conquered. The Oklahoma
City boosters were visitors in our
city yesterday and demonstrated to
all who met them what kind of men
It requires to build and sustain a
city. They were live men, one and
all-men Of progressive spirit, wide
awake, active, enthusiastic and de-
termined to do whatever they may
undertake.
Every line OF business was repre-
sented in the delegation, and while
each man particularly directed his
efforts to his own particular line,
they in unison we're for Oklahoma
City, and had In view the one COM
mon end-the future welfare of the
city whence they came.
Our people can learn "a lesson
from the work of these Oklahoma
City delegates. The metropolis of
Oklahoma has been built up to its
present commercial and industrial
importance not by lethargy or in
action on the part OF us citizens,
but by persevering, intelligent,
broad-minded and determined labor
on the part OF Its enterprising cit
liens. In spite OF all opposition and
competition, the people Of oklaho-
ma City have been successful in the
building of a city which is today the
pride of the new Southwest.
Amarillo is next in order; 1t has
the proper geographical location for
city; 1t has tributary agricul-
tural area much larger and far more
promising than that Of Oklahoma
City; it has practically as many
railroads now as has Oklahoma City;
Il has within its reach every neces-
sary essential for the development
Of a great and important CONNER
cial center.
1t remains for the people Of ANA
rlllo to make use of the opportuni-
ties before them. Such delegations
as that of yesterday and their meth
DDS OF work in behalf OF their home
city are worthy Of emulation. We
are pleased to be able to say that a
representative number OF our people
took an interest In Yesterdays pro-
gram. Especial credit is due to
Messrs. P. L. Person and J. II. Avery,
for the great success OF the inter-
change OF courteses between Anna
rillo and its big sister on the east.
The evening program in particular
was a master stroke. The sentiment
voiced by the speakers, one and all,
tended toward closer and stronger
relations between the two cities.
More Of our people should have
been present. There's "a culpable
spirit OF carelessness and lassitude
prevalent among some of our bust
ness men and citizens They do not
take the proper interest in anything
that pertains to the furtherance OF
Amarillo's interests. 1t Is not fair
that few should be asked to sus-
tain and uphold the reputation Of
our city as a widv-awake, progress
sive community. It Is the duty Of
all to take an active interest in such
affairs as that OF Yesterday. All
are Interested. All derive benefits
therefrom. Therefore those who
shift upon others the burden which
they themselves should carry are not
doing their duty. Let all wake up
to a realization OF the Importance
Of doing their full share in the great
work OF building a greater Amarillo.

THE PEOPLES FORUM
Umpire Makes Statement.

OulPlIc MNkeA otNtcAhclt.
 Pima, April r., 1908. To the Editor of the Silver Belt:
 Rear Sir--k have before me recent ssue of the. Silver Belt, which con. .ains an accoant of the ball game which yas played ip Globe last Sunday by he Valley club apd the Eagles of Globe.
 l want ;o call your attention to one item in that report, viz: "Raw de. eision of the Umpire, as contained in the headlines, and which you try to explain, later. in the article, asserting that the Eagles lost on the "changc. able decision of the umpire. Now what l want to say is this: most amphatieally deny having changed any decision during tho game, and say here and now that the "raw deeision' is absolutely correct and l challenge any man to take the official baseball guide and prove the contrary.
 do not make any claim to infalli. bility, but thinks know baseball rules, and am prepared to defend any decision which the Eagles are not satisfied with. The whole thing is explained in n very few words: The Eagles mistook tho play for forced run when in reality it was an open play It was the Eagles who called the man on sec. oud out and not tho umpire.
 havo this to say for the Eagles: They are gentlemen on the ball ground, especially Mr. Collins, and I doubt very much if they feel sore at me.
 I hope you can find room in the Silver Belt for this letter, or such parts of it as you may dcem necessary to publish.
 am very truly yours,
