A Prodieious Growth.

The state of Oklahoma, the youngest of the sisterhood. which in the last census had, with Indian Territory @ population of 6sS30 is given by the present census a population of 1,65l - 951. This is a most astonishing in crease and is without precedent in our history. In the census of 1900 state with this population would have ranked as the twentieth state in point of pop ulation. Mississippi which held that rank, then had a population of 1,551,- 270, and was given eight members Of congress.
 Oklahoma will continue to grow, but cannot be expected. of course, to re- peat the squirt of the last ten years. The growth is abnormal. made at the expense of neighboring states, some of which are expected to show by tfiH census an actual decrease in population as compared with ten years ago. Some of the Oklahoma cities are booming with the state, but not at the same prodigious rate. Oklahoma City which the people have voted to make ths state capital has grown in ten years from 10, 037 to GA, 4,2O5. Guthrie probably has not kept pace with this, and though protected by the act of congress until 1913, must eventually give up the state capital to its more lusty rival Philadelphia Press.

Deal With Chicago Surprised Lord.

Boston, Aug. 12.-'I have no com plaints to make against the Boston American league club for being releas- ed,'' said Harry Lord, the deposed third bas- man, when he appeared at the club headquarters in this city today. This deal with the Chicago club was a big surprise. Not that I have anything against Chicago, but I wanted to be in the east, where I could be near my family. Before I report to Chicago somebody will have to come through with proper inducements. If the Chi cago club foils to give me what I ask for, why it will be out of baseball for me"
