outspoken, fearless on all social con-
ventionalities. Other we'll known
works of Tolstoi are: The Slavery
of Our Times THE Christian
Teaching Resurrection THE
Death of Ivan llyitch," What is
Religion?" and The Power of Dark
ness.
From the early 7Os until his death
Tolstoi was a most prolific writer
His writings consist of novels, stor-
les, works, essays and articles of adj
vanced, radical and Christian char,
acter, on religious, ethical, philoso-
phical , economical, political and So
cial problems.
Tolstoi believed in the literalness
of the words of Jesus. He held that
the only rule of life is the precise
mon on the Mount
In his novel entitled the ''Resur-
rection," Count Tolstoi expressly de-
MED some of the doctrines Of the
| Orthodox State Church of Russia. In
consequence he was communicated
by the holy synod, which in March
1910, issued a formal announcement,
as follows:
in its solicitude for the children
of the Orthodox Church, to guard
them from being led into corruption
and in order to save those who have
gone estray, the holy synod has de-
! liberated upon the anti-Christan
and anti-ecclesiastical teachings OF
| Count Leo Tolstoi, and has deemed
it expedient in order to preserve the
| peace OF the church, to issue a cir.
cular dealing with the heresies OF
Count Leo Tolstoi. The circular is
as follows:
Count Leo Tolstoi, to the grief
and horror of the whole orthodox
world, has, by speech and writing
increasingly striven to separate him.
self from all communion with the
clandestinely but openly, and IL
the knowledge of all persons. All
attempts to disuade him from this
conduct have proved without avail
Consequently the orthodox church
no longer considers him to be one
of it's members. and cannot regard
him as such as long as he does MOI
repent and does not become recon
ciled to the church.
eve therefore place on record his
apostacy from the church and pra,
the Lord to restore him to com
prehension of the truth. We pray
Thee, therefore, O merciful God, who
does not desire the death of sinner
to hear us, have mercy on and re
store him to Thy holy church
Amen"

ried. thus aifording n levy of seven
mills instead of five mile. Until last
night 1t had been conceded that a suf-
ficlenl number of votes were not cast
and that the adverse vote was too
large for comfort. The impression
was that fifty per cent OF the vote
In the last general election should be
cast. r.
Lawyers on the board last night de-
clded, when the board met To can
yass the returns, that thirty per cent
of the vote of the school district,
which is practically the city, Is suffi-
cient. A vote OF little over 600 would
therefore, have been sufficient. pro-
ylded a majority of that number favor
ed the increase.
The number OF votes cast Jl the
special election was 729, OF which 507
were favorable to the increase and
222 unfavorable. The proposition
carried In every precinct.
The law under which the board ar
rived at the conclusion that increased
levy had been authorized Is found in
an act OF 1910. The fifty per ce>.
provision is held to apply to munic-
palitles and not to school districts.
The last section OF the act declares
that the trustees of each school dis
trict shall keep record of the legal
voters in each case and that where
it is proposed to vote levy above five
per cent there shall be thirty per
cent vote. a majority of which per
cent shall be favorable to the In

meni In West Guthde

Insanity, attributed TO religious
mania as the controlling cause, re-
suited today in the removal of Mrs.
Della Mills, twenty-five years old. to
the asylum at Norman. The cnse is
an unusually distressing one.
Mrs. Mills Is regarded By her fam

several months. She is said TO have
become degotee OF the cult last
spring, before her failure OF mind wa

money for other purposes. 1t was
found when the deal was closed, that
the child owed his former guardian
$2075 and now the guardian Is threat
ening to have the property Of the
child sold In order to get the $2,075.
II know OF another case In which
325 acres were sold for an Indian child
and when all the claims were paid, the
child got $3.50. In another instance,
'$1 800 was obtained for 200 acres, but
the child got only $l20. In other
words, the children Of deceased In
dians In this state, where are located
one-third of all the Indians In the
United States, are Systematically be-
ing robbed OF their estates allotted
them by the government. The prop
erty is sold at prices dictated by the
land robbers. The children are robbed
at both ends--at one end by their
guardians and at the other end by the
pun chasers.'
DO you mean to say such things
are countenanced by the probate
court?'
"Yes, they go on with the full
knowledge OF the Judges"
Thousands Of acres OF property are
thus taken from the Indians and are
thrown into the hands OF white people
The Indians are getting poorer and
