clated and therefore discontinued.
Eyerytown has the poorest railroad
facilities in the country, and, heaven
knows, the hotels and streets are a
perfect disgrace. The city administra-
tors are a "bunch of clans. Every
town never gets to see a good play,
despite the fact that it is naturally the
best show town within radius of a
hundred miles
Everytown is the worst place on
earth for gossip. 1t is infested with a
nest OF old sisters whose sole business
| it to pick to pieces the regulations
of honest people. And some of the
men are equally faithful character as
sassins.
The society set of Eyerytown would
be ludicrous if it were not so pathetic
Those who assume social prominence
are new-riches who don at know how
to conduct themselves at a dinner or
reception. This the visitor learns
from one who has not been taken in by
the upper crust
The servant problem is simply awful
in Everytown Other municipalities
may think they have trouble with hired
help, bur they don't really know what
vexation is
Everytown is oyercrowded with law
years and doctors. The newly-gradu-
ated attorney or physician had best
avoid that town as the plague.
Real estate in Eyerytown is being
held for twice its value The natural
growth of the town has enhanced the
value of the property for a few old
skinfints who have lived there always
and who have sold enough to live on
an dare now holding the balance at an
eXtortionate figure.
If Everytown ever expects to amount
to anything it will have to poison the
old fossils who are now in control and
who don't know what the word pro
gress means. And this will be as true
fifty years hence as it is today.--John

Horace Greeley, Jr, has an article
in Sundays issue of the Oklahoma City
Times that is unjust and misleading as
it applies to the asylum for Z, insane
being built at Vinita Mr.. Greeley
confesses ignorance with reference to
the subject matter of which he writes
which in a measure mitigates his error
but at the same time either intention
ally or unintentionally does the state
board of affairs and others an injus
tice. The asylum buildings at this
place Will cost a million dollars when
completed according to plans and
specifications and there will be more
than 20 buildings The two buildings
nov nearing completion are among
the smallest of the group His crit
eisms of the workmanship are absurd.
Mr. Greeley should visit Vinita and
the asylum before attempting to write
about it,

HIches Of Malay Penlnsula.

One of the richest countries in the
world is that part of the Malay
peninsula known &c the Federated
States. These provinces are still un-
der the rule of their native chiefs or
sultans, though they are assisted by
British adviser. The tin mines Of
these small states are more valuable
than most gold mines. for they pro-
duce nearly half the worlds supply Of
tin. and the result is an overfowing
treasury for the states. Vast forests
OF rubber trees are also proving ex-
tremely profitable.

In the evening an audience OF even

chief merit lay in the singers diction and
in the surprisingly good corps de ballet.

Providence, April H.-Although they are

ments Of the law, the passenger steamships
which sail from this port are found on in
vestigation to carry only lifeboats or life
RATS TO accommodate few more than
one third Of the number OF passengers they
are permitted to carry
The inquiry included steamships that ply
between New York and Providence. be-
tween this city and Southern ports. and up
and down Narragansett Bay. The number
OF boats or RATS required Is figured on a
basis OF the gross tonnage or each vessel
and not on the total carrying capacity OF
passengers, and this is done In accordance
with the law.
The seven Sound steamers running be-
tween New York and Providence nave a
total carrying capacity of $50 passengers.
Of whom 500 are allotted TO the Providence
Line and the others TO the Joy and New
lines. The total passenger capacity OF the
lifeboats and hferafts required TO be car
RED by these boats Is $40.
The steamships Of the Merchant ana

equipped with more than enough lifessvng
craft to care for double the number OF
passengers they are allowed to carry, but
the Narrag ansett Bay boats are by long
odds the poorest equipped in that respect.
