MAKES INDIANS RICH
Developments in Southwest Net
Them Big Returns.
Oil and Coal Add to the Fortunes Of
the Aborigines in Okla
homa.

Washington.-There are 100000 I'M
dams scattered throughout the 48
states of the Union; many of them,
the Osages, Creeks and Quapaws, are
rich in natural resources; rich in oil,
gas, coal, asphaltum. zinc and other
minerals that not alone make wealth
for themselves, but for the country of
which they were the original occu-
pants.
Oklahoma ranks first of all the
states Of the Union in Indian pOpula-
ton. The interior department, through
Cato Sells, commissioner of Indian
affairs, leased during the last fiscal
year 1,653,62O acres of land for OIL
This vast estate is being administered
through the Indian office in Washing
ton, through the commissioner of the
i've civilized tribes at MuskOgee, and
through the several Indian agencies
scattered throughout Oklahoma.
The total number of barrels of oil
produced from these rich fields during
the last fiscal year is "a, 1913, 267. The
value Of this oil in dollars would ag-
gregate $5O,OOOOOO.
The royalties alone during the last
fiscal year actually paid to these In
dian tribes apprOXimated $8,O50,O98,
and for the six years preceding there
was derived in royalties alone and ac-
tually paid to the Indians for their
benefit in oil royalties $26000,0OO.
The total amount of oil taken from
these Indian lands in Oklahoma, all
told, since oil was originally discOv-
cred, aggregates 3S3,OOO,OOO barrels.
The total amount of royalties and
bonuses paid the Indians by oil oper-
atorS during this development is $780,
100000.
With the coming of the white people
to the state and with the marvellous
improvement going on in the cOnstruc-
ton of railroads. wagon roads, school
houses and churches it will be seen
that the Indians are fast becoming as
simulated into society, taking their
place and assuming the role of citizen
ship.

To PIatinize Silver.

Place some platinum in a small
quantity of aqua regia or nitro-mu-
Ratio acid, and keep it in a warm
place few days; it will dissolve. AS
soon as it has dissolved, evaporate the
liquid at a gentle heat until it is as
thick as honey, SO as to get rid of
the excess of the nitric and muriatic
acids. Add a little water, and it is
ready for use. A dozen drops Of this
solution goes long way in platiniz-
ing silver. The operation is performed

a Watchglass to keep in the fumes,

Form Squad to Sell
Blood for TRANSMISSION

Santa Barbara, Gala "blood
TRANSMISSION squad" composed of
physically perfect men and
women, to hold themselves avail
able at any time their services
are needed, is being formed here.
The Santa Barbara County
Medical society has issued a
call for a dozen volunteers.
The merit Of the plan, it is
pointed out, is that physicians
will have names of persons who
can be called on Immediately in
emergency cases, whereas by
the Old plan valuable time was
lost in examining volunteers.
When one of the members of

tient he or she, as the case may
be, will be paid $40 for the red
cOrpuscies given up to save

Finally the figure IS ready for the dis
play of gown, lingerie, shoes, jewels,

In order to make this model walk natur-
ally very ingenious machinery has been
introduced. The work was made less diff
cult by the fact that only a few slow, sim
pie movements are needed to display a
gown. Within the body is a delicate clock
work mechanism that causes the legs to
move with a graceful natural motion. The

wOmen's wearing apparel of all kinds be
content to give up their living mannequins,
one of the most attractive features of their
business, and use mechanical ones?
Can the. mechanical mannequins display
anything approximating the charm of the
live ones in setting of a costume?
Concerning the attractiveness of the
mechanical models the promoter of the
scheme uses language of enthusiastic
praise that is rather amusing. He says
that the mechanical models are seduc-
lively beautiful and graceful, that their
exquisitely colored wax compilations are
more perfect than natural ones, and that
in face and figure they are more beautiful
than the average mannequin, because they
are copied with the highest artistic skill
from the most famOusly beautiful women
Of the Partisan stage.
The enthusiastic promoter omits to state
whether he thinks the Partisan man, or
maybe the American millionaire, will be
as much interested in the automatic fig
ure as in the living mannequin. Perhaps
he feels that the discussion of such point
is beneath his dignity
For the benefit Of the employer it is
pointed out that the automatOns never go
on strike, cost far less and present none of
the temperamental problems so INSOFAR
able from the fair sex.
Undoubtedly the manufacture of the
automatic mannequins has been carried
out with wonderful art and ingenuity A
group of these figures possesses consider
able charm, for they represent the most
noted actresses and singers of Paris in
very natural poses. 1t might even be
argued with some show of reason that the
artificial figures are more attractive than
some living figures, for they have been
copied from originals that understand the
poetry of motion. It is indeed very inter-
The Washington times., 1919-08-24

It is well known that a reproduction Of
the human figure, perfect in proportion and
distribution lOf weight, cannot be depended
on to stand erect. The living man holds
himself upright by an unconscious balanc-
ing effort. To meet this difficulty in the
automaton a gyroscopic attachment has
been introduced, which brings the figure
back to the upright whenever It begins to
fall away.
The manufacture of the still waxen ig-
ure presented, Of course, no great mechan-
ical difficulty 1t is, however. fashioned
with the same superb skill as the walking
automatOn, and presents the same seduc-
tive beauty of face and figure.

figures, associated as it usually is with a.
tractive accomplishments of silk and lace.
"The wax used is of a special, very fine
quality, impregnated with a fesh-colored
tint throughout before it is modelled.
"The artist carries his molten wax in
pot with a spout He pOurs it over the
framework of the figure and then mOulds it
into shape, working very much as a sculp-
tor would with clay. The work is in many
ways more complicated than the ordinary
sculptor's art, for the wax artist must fit
his model with perfectly cOlored eyes and
tint her complexion.

ARTISTS of distinction, prominent among
them the noted Partisan sculptor Pierre
Imans, have not disdained to take up the
new art of wax modelling" writes the ex-
pert. "The wax mannequin is now one of
those art creations of Paris which, how
ever they may be envied abroad, are be-
yond all foreign competition.
Nothing is more difficult to produce
than perfect wax head. The most as
sured art and taste must be allied with the
most perfect mechanical methods.

beauty. the figure is equally important 1t
must be of harmonious lines. of attitudes

The dressmaker drapes the harmonious
lines of the artificial mannequin in cling

cloths.
