Queer Town.

Margaret Ellington was making
coast-to-coast tour as the star in q
new play. She had reached the far
land of the one-night stands out in the
Southwest. To break a long jump
she was to play in q new community
that expects to have $4,000 inhabitants
some day.
AS the actress, In the early morn
ing, dismounted from the through
train, with her maid and her manager
and the supporting company, an aged
darby laid hold of her hand baggage
and led the way, bowling and scraping,
to where the hotel bus waited. Fol-
lowing him, Miss Ellington emerged
from the station shed on an expanse
of one-story stores flanked each side
of q dusty road.
Uncle, she asked, sis this the prin-
cipal street"
dis we're one? Nome" he said.
''Dis we're town amt got no principal
street. - Saturday Evening Post.

Der the TribuIations Consequent
!, on "Haying" Time.

July was once Il period dreaded by
the American country boy, as the tiEap
of "haying" To be sure it was re-
lieved by the turbulent and explosive
joys Of July 4. But every other day,
often in The concentrated hours Of
the national birthday, he was driven
to the bayfield, with rake and fork.
How his heart rebelled against the
humdrum toll
BY one of the mysterious dispensa-
tons of Providence, the smallest boys
were put to work in the most exhaust
ing post. While the older men were
down on the barn floor where the cool
breeZes swept in from the wide open
doors, it was the function OF the boys
to receive the hay under the caves
of the structure and push and tramplc
it down in the smallest possible COM
pass. Only by much treadng could
the dried grasses be compressed into
q reasonable space.
1t was perfect inferno of heat
the air filled with choking dust, the
NOW baking from the sun beating on

from out of doors it was like the fur
mace where walked Shadrach, Meshach
and Abednego Of old Bible times
The men down below seemed pos
itively to gain satisfaction from
covering them up with fast coming
forkfuls of the dusty hay.
Still there were certain alterations.
The can of iced water sweetened with
New Orleans molasses and spiccd With
ginger from the pantry is still re-
called. Also at the close there was
an Elysian dip in the swimming hole.

perform these tasks for which their

their hold in the fathers soul from
the regular performance of such hard

The "NeIson Touch.n

Who invented the phrase the "Nel-
son touch" which is being freely used
again in connection with the North
seat battle? Admiral Mahan states
that it probably originated in Nelson's
family circle at Merton, and the first
frequent use of it occurred in the great
seaman's correspondence with Lady
Hamilton, as where, writing just be-
fore reaching the fleet, he remarked !:
II am anxious to join, for it would add
to my grief il any other man wa.;
to give their. the Nelson touch. which
we say II warranted never to fail
There was quaint allusion to it ais,
in the motto which he told Rose liz,
had adopted Touch and Take. -

Lane Monday. Former Governor c.
n. Haskell late tonight, had not as
yet prepared a draft of the PROPOSE
tion he will submit, which it is under
stood will cover both oil and gas.
1t is beginning to look as though
the whole Foster lease would be Of
fercd upon low royalty basis, both
as to oil and gas, but with the eXpec-
tatiOu that large bonuses will be Of
fered for much Of the territory. In
this event, it would mean that the
present OIL as well as gas sublcases,
would be compelled to enter the open
market and bid against all corners
for lease renewals. The Usage ques-
tion has largely gotten down to an
arthmetical basis. as to which of the
many methods proposed for releasing
the eastern part of the nation, Will
produce the most money for the
Osages. one thing seems reasonably
certain, that is, that the Osages Will
get very substantial monetary gains
from having refused to leave the en-
tire matter to the department. Just
what the gains will be, H. is as yet
impossible TO say, but that they will
bc Consa aicrablc is generally conceded
1t now looks as though any one want
ing an Usage oil or gas lease would
have to pay for IT, and pay well.

sources of the country.
The present system Of enlistlng
