RELATIVES OF THE DEAD
Servant Called From Dining

NEW YORK, March 23.-Just as dinner
was being served last night in the home
of S. S. Rowland, the horseman. president
of the Washington Jockey Club and
brother-in-law of August Belmont, at No.
43 East 4Sth street, Postal Inspector John
N. Parsons called and had the butler sum-
mon out of the dining room BERTHE Kallen-
berg, the second man." He charged Kali
lenberg with perpetrating swindling
scheme of a peculiarly ghoulish character
1t is charged that relatives of persons
recently dead were imposed upon to set
tie for purchases that they were led to
believe had been made by the relatives
shortly before their death. These debts
were all for Bibles, according to the postal
authorities.
The scheme was to follow the death
notices in the newspapers and then send
letter addressed to the dead person.
which, of course, would come into the
hands of relatives and be read. The form
of the letter would be something like this:
Dear Sir Cor Madam: The 50 sent in
payment on account for the Bible you
ordered has been received and credited to
you. On receipt of Sc additional the
special edition Bible will tie forwarded to
you. CARL SCHMIDT
Payments Came Promptly.
The nature of the purchase in connec-
ton with a person who had just died
caused payments by relatives to come
in promptly. Schmidts post Office ad-

Without an Appropriation.

THE completion Of the administration
building will practically only put the
university as to buildings a very little
ahead of where 1t was in 1903, the state
having made no appropriation for any
buildings except this one since that time
and this only replaces the building de-
stroyed by fire. 1t will be absolutely es-
sential that new buildings be supplied
rapidly during the next few years If the
university is to be allowed to grow so
as to meet the demands upon 1t which
may reasonably be expected. With pop
ulation about equal to Kansas and con-
siderably larger than that of Nebraska

that the university of the state should
fall in any way behind these, and there
is no question that if We are equipped to

whom the people loved to call 1.-The father
of Oklahoma" He was one of those un-
easy, restless spirits to-whom civilization
is tedious. He was a natural pioneer and
loved to sleep on the soil. He was born
in Indiana in 1854 farmers boy-and as
soon as he was old enough to leave home
wandered westward and roamed over the
prairie.
He found the Indian reservations south
of the Kansas boundary more like para
disc than any land he had ever seen, and
went to Washington in the 7Os to get
some one to introduce bill to open them
to settlement. He remained around the
capital for several winters. and when his
money gave out the Kansas delegates Sc
cured him a position as doorkeeper in
the House Of Representatives. He re-
manned there during several sessions OF
Congress, and after adjournment each
year would go west and stir up the people

on each occasion was arrested and taken
before a United States court. But he ac-
complished his purpose, which was agita-
ton. He filed the newspapers full of Okla

ton of it was called, until finally public

Special Correspondence of The Star and the
Chicago Record Herald.
OKLAHOMA CITY, March II, 1911.
Oklahoma has a thriving young university
with between six and seven hundred stu
dents and an enthusiastic faculty under
the guidance OF President Arthur Grant
Evans. D. D., who is a graduate of Henry
Kendall College and has been in charge
of this institution since 1908. The stand
ard of scholarship and the requirements
for admission and for diplomas are not
as high as they might be, but conditions
here are such that the institution must
be regulated to meet the demands upon
1t and will advance it's standards as cir
cumstances permit.
President Evans says:
THE session of 1910-11 has been most
encouraging. The enrolment is about 100
more than it has ever been. The medical
school has been reorganized; the law
school, which is now offering two years
work, shows healthy growth and numbers
about 100 students. The school of teach
ing has brought expressions of interest
from teachers throughout the state. 1t
makes it possible for students having
completed sophomore work or it's equiva-
lent to carry on their work for their de-
greeS partly by correspondence and partly
in the summer sessions, SO that they can
do this work without giving up their
teaching. This has brought inquiries for
correspondence from very large number
who are not ready to enter the school.

this a very hospitable climate.
The Eighty-niners' Club of Oklahoma
will hold it's annual reunion on the 22d OF
April, which will be the twenty-second
anniversary Of the opening of the terri
tory to settlement. No one is eligible to
this club that did not participate In the
rush on that memorable day In SO. but at
the last reunion $50 men and go women
appeared to celebrate. 1t is an old story
now and has become history, but the
opening of Oklahoma was one OF the
most remarkable events in the develop
ment of the west. 1t could not have oc.

Enrolment in the Colleges.

About one-third of the students have
been hitherto in the preparatory depart
ment, which was given up last year, but
hereafter the preparatory work will be
done in the high schools of the state. The
College Of Arts and Sciences, of which
Prof. James Shannon Buchanan. profess
or Of history. and a graduate OF Cumber-
land University, is the dean, has the
largest number Of students with an en-
rollment of 216 last year. The School of
Fine Arts anG that includes music, OF
which Frederick Holmberg of Bethany
College is the dean, has ninety-two stu
dents. The College of Engineering under
Dean James Houston Felgar, graduate
enc students: the College of Pharmacy.
under Dean Homer Charles Washburn OF
Michigan University. has forty-two stu
dents, and the remainder are divided
among the College of Medicine, the Law
School and other branches.
The professions do not attract so many
students in Oklahoma as agriculture,
which is perfectly natural, because this
is an agricultural state and the develop
ment is all that way. The university,
however, has a useful future, and fOrtu-
nately there is an abundance of money
behind 1t.
Oklahoma City has just adopted new
