 ALLOTMENT CASES

Washington. Oct. 6.-Assistant Attor- ney General Charles W. Russell has been assigned by the Department of Justice to argue. December s, before the court of appeals of St Louis. the Indian allotment cases. Millions of dollars worth of property are involved in the litigation in which the govern rnent shows hand in behalf of the Indians. Altogether there are about 15. 900 cases in which it is argued that valuable tracts of land. many of them 160 acres in extent including oil, coal and other mineral lands. have been taken from the Indians through viola tions of the law placing restrictions upon the ability of the Red men to dispose of their property without the approval of the government. These restrictions vary according as to whether the Indian is full blood, tFree-quarter. half. or quarter-blood, and in some cases these restrictions have been saltered by Congress since the transfers of the lands were made.
 United States Senator Owen of Okla homa is among those interested in the outcome of the suit because it is al- legged he lays claim to 150 of the allot- snents in dispute.

Bridgeport as "The Industrial Capi- tai of Connecticut'' has perhaps been too busy with the real work of life to cultivate a discriminating sense in drama, and perhaps this is why Eva

 many years, and is interpreted by actors capable of the exalted effort which the play demands. 5 E 1t is a little difficult to declare what will be the verdict of posterity, but the opinion of men best equipped . judge in such case is that aT'he Servant in the House will endure as long as the stage exists. The play grips the mind, stirs the heart and moves
 the soul. However one looks at it.. whether the effort be to typify the
 bodily presence of Jesus, or merely the presence of the religion of Jesus, a character that will live Those theatre goers who fear that whatever IS useful, or exalting, the stage, is necessarily stupid need have no fear.

 New York. Oct 6.-When the 4,00O girls working in the necktie factories in New York decided to go on strike they wanted to do all the things the men do in a strike. They sent out spickets" and they tried to coax the other girls to come out and tie up the necktie industry. But they did not complete the example of the male workers in every detail. Where the men usually throw bricks when non- union men take their places, the girls adopted different tactics which proved far more effective.
 Every picket was armed with boxes of candy and gave box of candy to each worker. This combined with much talk won over the .strikebreak- ers.n
