SCHOOL LAND
LEASES To RUN
ANOTHER YEAR
NEW BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
so DECIDE RE-APPRAlSE-
MEkT WILL COST 100000
NO APPROPRIATION.

Oklahoma City, Nov. 1S.-Leases OF
school lands in Oklahoma, all of
which will expire Jan. |, 1915, will
be allowed to run on for another
year without formal renewal. This
was the decision reached by the
school land commissioners in ses-
sion with three of the new members
of the commission. The three new
members were Governor elect Will
liams, Auditor elect Howard, and Sec
retary of State elect Lyon. The ac-
ton of the board is set forth in a
resolution drawn by Judge Williams,
which is as follows:
Resolution Adopted.
e'Whereas, There is no available
appropriation to have the public
lands of this state re-apprased for
rental or leasing purposes and
Whereas, The leases on said land
by their terms expire on Dec. 81,
1914.
'Now, therefore, be it resolved, that
the lessee or lessees of said land may
remain in possession of the parts
thereof occupied by such lessee or
lessees after the expiration of his
or her lease, and the lessor pursu-
ant to the terms of section 3Sl1 OF
the revised laws of 1910, will accept
rent from such lessee or lessees and
that the said lessee or leSsees there
by renew his or her lease, on the
same terms and at the same rental
that he or she have occupied said
premises under such lease, but such
renewal shall not exceed the period
of one year, provided that nothing
in this resolution shall be construed
as extending any right or privilege
to the lessee or lessees other than
that given them by said section 3Sl1.
Re e-Appraisement Cost 100000.
1t is estimated by the retiring
board and by the new members that
the cost of making reappraisement
as provided by law viii be approx
mately 100000. This reappraisement
should have been made this calendar
year, but the legislature neglected to
make appropriation for it. The ap-
praisement will be made upon the
ground that if recommendations OF
the commission be followed, as mem
bers of the commission are of the
opinion that the basis for rental Is

CALL FOR BIDS
ON CAPITOL
RESC|NDED
LETTING OF CONTRACT FOR CON-
STRuCTlON OF BUILDING POST
PONED-WiLL NOT INTERFERE
WITH WORK NOW BEING DONE.

ohlallOIllh wy ANp's 10 i%'NSiht Z
the contract for construction of the
$500, 900 capitol, scheduled for De
cember 10, is delayed indefinitely as
the result of action by the capitol
building commission Tuesday. Under
pressure brought by c. b. Kendrick
president pro TEN of the senate and
J. II. MaNey, speaker of the house, the
commission adopted a resolution re
scinding its call for bids and cancelling
the advertising of the call that was
being run in The Oklahoman and the
Muskogee Phoenix.
Commissioners Pat Goulding and
Stephen Douglass voted in favor OF
the resolution The third number
Commissioner w. B. Anthony. voted
against it.
Senator KendriCk in statement
Tuesday night declared that the reas
on he and Representative MaXey who
have absolute control over the capitol
building commission, insisted on the
delay was that "prOvisions of the state
constitution would be violated were the
contract let before the Legislature con
Nenes.
"The constitution provides that no
commission or department shall con
tract a state debt of more than $4O0, ,000
at one time" he said "As just $780,
600 was appropriated by the last
legislature for the building it is ap-
parent that to let the contract now
would run the state into debt at least
$3.50, 600 The reason the entire ST.
100000 was not appropriated by the
Legislature is that an appropriation be-
comes void after thirty months. I'm
doubtedly an additional $750,000 will
be appropriated at the next session" "
Senator KendriCk asserted that an
exhaustive investigation of the capitol
commission, conducted by himself and
Speaker MaXey, showed that the cap
itol fund had been handled "wisely
and carefully" by the commission. No
unnecessary expenditures have been
made, he said.
There is no question as to the hon
or and integrity of all three members
of the commission" he stated.
There will be no suspension of work
on the capitol as a result of the action
of the commissioners Tuesday after
noon in resembling its call for bids for
the construction OF the building proper,
according to announcement from the
office of the commission Wednesday
afternon.
The work of laying the concrete
foundation and the floor of the sub
basement, started some time ago, will
continue as fast as material can be OBJ
tanned, it is said
Contract for the erection of the build
could not be let much before the
meeting of the legislature, even though
the commission had proceeded with its
advertisement for bids, according to
Chairman w B. Anthony.
The action taken by the commits
sion will have no effect on the work
now in progress, and will not delay the
final erection of the building one day,
said Mr.. Anthony.

STATES PRISON FOR TWO.
Women Caught In Raid Sentenced and
Hackman Held for Trial.

state prison sentences were imposed
Friday afternoon in the cases of Mrs.
Peter Phillips and Mrs. Hattie Young
the TWO women arrested in tho raid or
the Phillips house on First street a few
nights before, both haveing entered pleas
OF guilty TO infidelity, in court Wednes
day Joseph Litvin. the hackman who
drove two men to the house. was held
Tor county court on the charge of being
accessory before the fact.
In imposing sentence, Judge Palmer
said that tho case Of the Phillips woman
seemed to be an aggravated one and
was almost inconceivable to human In
telltgence. The woman, who was re-
ceiving the charity OF the city, had five
small children and the city had evident
ly done all it could for her but its charity
had been abused by the dishonest method
the woman had been taking to earn
money. The only thing In her favor,
the court remarked, was that she had
told the truth on the witness stand,
which would earn her a small reduction in
sentence. The sentence was that Mrs
Phillips be confined at tho State prison
in Windsor for a period of not less than
two years and one month, nor more than
four years, The Young woman was given
the same sentence but with q minimum
of two years.
The defense decided to put in no evil
dence in the case of Iitvin, tho hack
man. Attorney Einright said that he did
not think the man could be convicted in
county court IL the statute under which
he was prosecuted We're correctly in.
terrreted He asked that the bail be
reduced to $500. The court, however
decided to keep the bail at the original
figure, 5000. and held the man for trial
in county court.

TRAINS DELAYED.
Saturdays storm Upset Timetable Of
RutInnd and Central Vermont ROnds.

While It was raining in Boston Sat
urday, Burlington was visited by
what seemed to he an oid-fashioned bliz-
zard although the weather reports show
l. to be not quite so bad as II seemed
The temperature varied between zero and
10 above and while the wind was at no
time more than 20 miles per hour. It was
of the gusty sort, which played havoc
with the trains and anything else which
endeavored to go through the shifting
snow which was Of the granulated sort
and was as difficult to get through as
it as they have experienced in some time
and every load seemed a heavy one. The
electric cars did pretty we'll under the
circumstances and kept somewhere near
schedule time by the continual use Of the
snow plough and the hard work of the
Traction company employees.
The Rutland railroad sleepers, due short
IL after four O'Clock. did not arrive until
after two O'Clock Sunday afternoon.
The passengers We're taken care Of along
the eating line by the buffet car and the
restaurants at Rutland and other stops,
but were a weary lot of people when they
alghted here. The main trouble between
Burlington and New York city seemed to
be south of Troy.
Saturday morning the trains did not feel
the effects of the storm but later on as
the storm grew the schedule time was lost
sight Of The 4;30 mail from the south
did not arrive until Has at night. The
GAO got in at loo Sunday morning and
things grew Increasingly bad until the
sleepers capped the climax. The evening
and night trains from White River juno
ton over the Central Vermont road were
also several hours late
Burlington apparently escaped the
worst OF the storm as only about six
inches OF snow fell here, while at North
field there was a foot and at southern
points there was much more.

VALUE OF FISH AND GAME
Worth Half a Million Dollars
Annually to Vermont.
Economic Side OF the Question shown
by Commissioner Titcomb nj. Week.
ly Luncheon of Merchants' As
sOcintion Thursday.

Fish and game occupied the centre OF
the stage at Thuredays weekly luncheon |
of the Merchants association, when John
w. Thcomb OF Jyndonville. fish and game
COMM ssioncr of Vermont, addressed the
merchants. Mr.. Titcomb who Is not only
an efficient State officer but something
OF an enthusiast and very much Of an
authority, showed the economic side of
the fish and game question to very good
advantage
Mr.. T1tcomb referred, in opening, to the
fact that the fish and game of the State,
whenever regarded as an asset. are con
ddered solely as bait for summer Wis
ltors and residents. He was perfectly will
ing to admit that they are Of inestimable
value In that way, but went on to provo
that bringing visitors into the State is
not the only economic merit of our fish
and beasts and birds.
Taking up item by item the different
sources OF the Ash and game supply, the
speaker made careful estimates as to thu
money value OF the viands thus taken
every year Figuring on the basis of what
ne considered an average trout town, he
estimated that the annual trout catch for
pounds. This at fifty cents a pound would
amount to 10000 dollars
Counting up the income from the var
ious kinds of fish and game taken In
Vermont he estimated the value of the
total. Counting in ell the kinds of fish
caught in the streams and ponds and in
Lake Champlain and those caught during
the ice in the winter, he found that the
annual value of the fish harvest Is $4,000.
The value Of the grouse and woodcock
taken IN the State each year he estimated
a so, 900 The value of hares and squir-
rels, which are shot in great numbers
every year. ne estimated Mt $4,000. The
value OF the deer killed each year can be
determined definitely and is s5l.7S9 The
value of the returns from fur-bearing
animals ~ also possible to determine
with some degree of accuracy and
amounts to somewhere around $3.50, 600 an
nually.
The total returns from these animals
and the water birds and other game was
shown to be conservatively about s251. 600
so that the whole Of fish and game each
year amounts TO something over half a
million dollars.
MI lltcorlb ~ n to'i Of the chen
of sentiment In the State concerning fish
and game preservation. He gave specific
| instances which showed not only the
change Of sentiment but the benefit
which improved fishing conditions had
brought to communities.
The history of fish and game protec-
ton IN Vermont was then given in out
line and the email expense to the State
was shown. In round numbers, deducting
the income which 1t brings IN the shape
of fines. this whole work of conserva-
ton costs the State only $500 annually
1t brings the State immensely more in
many ways.
Mr.. Titcomb. before closing his talk
outlined briefly n program of sane de-
velopment along the lines Of this i'm,
portant work.

NO ONE BORN SELFISH.
Capt. Reeves Considers the Essentials
of Manliness.

Captain Ira |. Reeves of the univer-
sity gay4 a talk on The Essentials of
Manlincss'' to large body of men at the
Young Mems Christian association build
ing Sunday afternoon. Manliness was
presented from three different points Of
view. the heart or spirit aspect, the mind,
and the body.
Manliness of the heart Is unsel1shness
A man who is wrapped up in himself
like a snail or shrimp is Of no use to
the world 40 one enjoys his company,
not even himself The speaker said ne
never knew n wholc-hearted man who
was selfish. Selfshness is an acquired
habit and those who acquire It may often
throw it off In the opinion of Captain
Reeves, no one Is born selfish.
The spirit OF unselfshness ought to lead
a man to be of service to the world. 1t
ought to begin in his home and be as
broad as the nation in which he lives
A man should give time to the affairs
of government, not for what he can get
in office or spells but as his share OF the
work TO be done.
The maniness of the mind resides ia
moral courage which resolutely over
comes temptations 10 lilentsS anu Speiiuo
the time in improvements The man
of the hour Is made not by sudden in
spiration, but by years of preparation re-
sulting in a condition of fitness
To-day Is peculiarly a young mans
age. Young men are carrying an increas-
ing share Of responsibility. No matter
what has been done for us, II we ever
amount to anything we must be self-made
men. The man born with silver spoon
In his mouth is less fortunate than the
man born with adverse circumstances TO
contend against.
Physical manliness does not consist in
big muscles and a fist like ham. 1t
has been well said that one who takes
care Of his physical body can't so far
astray morally lie said he had seen
many bright lives hlotted by immoral
contamination. On the railroad the red
light means danger. The redlight dis
trct means keep away" He spoke with
great emphasis of the misery and loathe-
someness which spring from bad living.
