Bas-Reliefs CT the Stone Age.

Some large basreliefs dating from
the Stone Age have just been dis
covered al Lanosel, in the French prov
ince OF Dordogne. They are sculp-
tured on the rock of a shallow grot-
70, and solely represent animals. 1t is
thought that the primitive sculptors
probably refrained from introducing
the human figure in art by a tabu
similar TO the present Mohametan
tsbu on such representation. The
animals shown in the reliefs are rein
deer, oxen. bisons, and huge horse
OF prehistoric dimensions.

That it is a far cry from Washing
ton to Oklahoma is evidenced by the
misunderst anding that seems to pre-.
vail among the boys at home con
cerning two bills introduced by Con
gresham Carter. The queries reach
ing the congressman's desk have be
come so numerous and lmporthnale
that he today authorized the follow
ing statement:
AS there seems to be some mis-
understanding in Oklahoma concern
ing certain bills | have introduced
one a curative provision for inherit
ed estates, and the other for the ad-
judicaton of the forty thousand land
suits--I deem it necessary 10 make
this statement:
BY referring to these bills Cprint-
ed hereinbelow) it will be seen that
the dead claim bill simply undertakes
to give to the probate courts OF the
state of oklahoma full jurisdiction
in the settlement OF all inherited es-
tates, no matter when the death may
occur. This was the intention of
the law when it was enacted, and
both the Oklahoma state supreme
court and feIeral court of the eastern
judicial district of Oklahoma have so
construed same, but owing to an
opinion of the attorney general OF
the United States, the interior de-
partment in the past has persistently
yefused to recognize these court de
csions, and holds that the inherit
ed estate of certain allotted Indians
dying prior to May 2th, 1903, can
not be transferred without the ab.
proval of the secretary of the inte-
riOr.
The purpose of my bill on mat sub
iect is simply TO clarity the law, 10
give our state courts this jurisdiction
and to prevent the secretary of the
interior from infringing on the juris-
dICtlOn of our state.
The bill for the adjudication OF
the land suit controversy simply pro
vides that any person who has pur-
chased Indian lands, other than home
steads of living allottees, may have
dismissed any suit tnat has been
brought against him for same upon
the payment of twice the appraised
value of the land, due credit being
given for payments already made,
and not to change the Status of con
veyances declared to be invalid by
7HHe supreme court of the United
States.
BY reference to pages %5S and 30,

Statement by Wiekersham Concerning

Washington, Oct. 22.-To sustain his
contention that the decree dissolving
the Standard Oil company gave the
relief sought by the antitrust suit
against the corporation. Attorney Gen,
eral Wickersham issued a statement
revealing some Of the results OF an
inquiry he has been making into con-
ditions in the oil industry.
The statement. intended as a furth.
er reply to criticisms that such de-
crees as that of the Standard Oil bene-
fitted the trusts, was built around a
letter, optimistic as to present condi-
tions, which the attorney general re-
Gently received from G. ID. Chamber
lain, secretary and general counsel OF
the National Petroleum association.
Attorney General Wickersham gave
out with his statement a copy of q
letter from Mr.. Chamberlain, who
wrote that while the full effect oI
| the decree cannot yet be judged, in
dependent companies have. today
more unrestricted and uncontrolled
opportunity to carry on their busines,
without unfair. secret and oppressive
competition on the part of one grea

Mr.. Chamberlain wrote that. as
result of the decree. there had bee
great advance in the price Of crud
oil, benefitting the crude producer
and also an increase in the price Q

that he later attempted to take his
own life by leaping from the Franklin

Miss Garvey was found unconscious
In her home, with two sashes In her
head and the gas jets in the house
turned on, but unlighted. She is now
in the City hospital in a precarious
condition. but may recover.
The discovery was made by Mrs. J.

Miss Garvey's residence. After knock
ing on the door for a long time she
entered and saw the body of her cou-
sin all covered with blood lying in a

dam Tony was asleep. He knew moth
