Senator Owen has been greatly con-
cerned over the investigation. Two in
spectors were sent to Oklahoma for the
purpose of establishing the facts in
connection with his acquisition of some
4. 600 acres of lands situated in the rich
est section of the new state The re-
port of these inspectors Is now In the
hands of Secretary Garfield, and it has
been the subject of preliminary con-
ference between the secretary and the
Oklahoma senator.
The latter claims that In acquiring
the lands he did absolutely nothing
that was unlawful. He insists that the
deeds were obtained legitimately by his
agents. he merely furnishing the mon
ey and he does not believe his action
can be questioned In any event, he
holds that the law is unconstitutional,
and he has expressed his willingness
to have the matter tested In the courts.
It is said he paid as little as $40 an
acre for the land bought outright, and
gave from s25 to $50 for powers of at
torney which, of course, covered large
areas The interior department esti-
mates taht the land Is worth many
times what it cost Owen. It is as good
for agricultural purposes as some of
the richest land in Illinois. It is advan-

Why | Lost
My job.
Reasons Why Thousands Like Me
Cannot satisfy Their Employers.

81 believe my fate is not unlike that
of thousands of other workers who
daily lose their places for reasons they
do not know. and probably would not
believe When their last pay envelope
comes aiong, it is usually Your ser
vices NO longer required" If the truth
were known. the reason for their I'M
cerem0nious removal would probably
be that their usefulness was destroyed
because of some mental worry, bodily
aiImGnt or general indisposition. These
things, as we all know. are the most
fruitful causes of failure in all walks
of life. The battle of Waterloo was
los. because of a headache. In this
quick age our minds must be clear,
rapid, active. and free from outside
influence or worry, or else we go down
TO failure with the throng of "foatcrs"
who go from one place of employment
20 another, giving no satisfaction to
others or to themselves. constantly
growing older and less useful, with no
ambition, no will power, and no hope.
Every requires from every other
man the best that is in him. But no
man can use or get the best that is
in himself until he is first free from

There are thousands like me, going

Take my advice. A healthy stomach

mind clear, and your face rosy. have
healthy stomach now and hold a

j. Franklin Chase, a carpenter, was
arrested by the marshal of the city
court yesterday, on a charge of threat
ening to do great bodily harm" to
w. W. Street and family. Street, g.
contractor, who lives on West Four
teenth street, had some argument
with the carpenter, who it is alleged,
announced that he would wipe the
whole Street family off the map. Mr..
Chase was placed under $500 bond
to appear January 9 in answer to the
charge. The defendant seemed to
be greatly exercised over the arrest.
When the officer served the warrant
on him he was working on a new
house, Chase came down, dumped
his dinner pail, and then jumped on it.
He also refused to talk to the officers,
and refused to give bond. His wife
secured bond for him.
