Some eight months ago the Can

scope, which will be considerably
larger than any in use, will be of the
most modern type and will be used
principally in the determination OF
stellar radial velocities. The progress

at the summit of Sc srich hill, altitude

IS SEEKING A JOB
Would Organize Rangers to

CBy oMER X. BENEDICT


Bill Tilghman proposes to organize
Oklahoma Rangers in order to get
rid of the outlaws, which he claims
are growing bOlder and greater IN
numbers every year.
BITS looking for another job-a
pension; and we are not altogether
prepared to say that he Is not en-
titled to it--yet we scout the idea
that it Is necessary to organize rang"
ers to provide such job.

ganization is found necessary for the
preservation of the peace or TINS state
and to save us from further lnlesc

an organization.

His only diversion from his favor

which he resigned to become CHIEF

the reins
Seemed that the job was too quiet
for Bill, so he resigned it, and became
an active candidate for appointment
for United States marshal Of the
western district of Oklahoma, but
failed to land.
An Exciting Life.
Bills life has been one of excite

man, courageous, and has arrested
more bad men without pulling his
gun than he ever arrested by the

THE ORIGIN OF "UNGo."
How 1t Came TO Apply to Advocates
of War.

The origin of the word lingo" is
interesting at this time when one Is
confronted with it so often. At the
time of the close of the Russo-Turk-
ish war, which, as all readers of his
tory knows, terminated so disas-
trously for the Turks and caused a
feeling OF apprehension in England
that the Russians were bent on TAX
ing Constantinople and the ultimate
ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the Turkish en-
pire. a change which could not be toll
Grated. the public feeling found eX-
preston in England upon the stage in
pantomme and in the music halls
by numerous patriotic songs One Of
these Was as follows:
"The dogs Of war are loose and the
rugged Russian Bear,
Full bent on blood and robbery, has
crawled out of his lair,
1t seems a thrashing now and then
will never help to tame
That brute, and so he's out upon the
same old game.
The Lion did his best to give him
some excuse
To crawl back to his den again-all
efforts were no use,
He hungered for his victim, he's
pleased when blood is shed;
But let us hope his sins may all re-
coil on his own head.
Chorus
I'VE don't want to fight, but by jingo,
If we do,
We've got the men, we've got the
ships, we've got the money, too.
We fought the Bear before, and while
we're Britons true
The Russians shall not have Con-
stantinople"
The song became most popular and
was heard on every street corner,
from every organ grinder and was
whistled by every bootblack. Shortly
after this the election campaign be-
gan in which Gladstone, the head Of
the Liberals, attacked the Tory party
then led by the Earl of Beaconsfield,
who was in power. The Tory foreign
policy was ridiculed and they were
stigmatized by the Liberals as the
party of bloodshed, glory and lingo"
From the time Of this election cam
paign, which resulted in the defeat Of
the Tories and the accession Of the
"peace party" Gladstone's 1880 ad-
ministration, the word 'jingo" has
been used to denote an individual or
section of a party ready to rush, with
out mature consideration, into all the
horrors of war.-Pittsburgh Dispatch.
