Standing on the Pennsylvania Rail- i
road tracks near the Market street sub-1
way is a Pullman ear fitted up to in-J
struct those interested in the manner |
and method of obtaining Indian land;

t nw Indian Nation, and will be opened
by the government, but tbose in charge
of t'he saslo here do not represent "the
government.
The car is lighted throughout (vith
electricity and contains United States
geological maps and folios describing
every acre of land to be disposed of.
The promoters of tha sales proposition
say the lands are rich in minerals, be
ing known officially by act of Congress
as the segregated mineral lands. They
assert also that the lands are fine farm
ing and grazing tracts, and have "oil
possibilities." The lands are described I
as beinig in the center of a developed
oil Held, and, unlike other similar lands,
are not to ! be homesteaded, and do not
require residence thereon.
The car is sent out by the Real lis
tate Exchange of McAlester, Oklahoma,
near which place the land to be dis
posed of is located. The tour is under
the direction of the president of the
exchange, wlio is assisted by five
demonstrators.
The McAlester Exchange is standing
aj'l of the expenses of the trip. In ad
dition to the maps and folios the car
contains many views said to have been
taken on the lands, and a numtber of
photographs of the city of McAlester,
and other interesting exhibits of West
ern developments. The ear will remain
here several days and 'be open to the
public daily, including Sunday, from 9
A. M. to 9 P. M. There is no charge
for admittance.
The Poor Beneficiary
Some nations were fighting fiercely.
" Why are you fighting so?" inquired
the bystanders, moved at length to
curiosity.
"To save civilization," replied the
nations severally
Here a draggled figure rose from the
mire under the feet of the combatants
and limped lamely away.
"And who are you?" asked the by
standers, with a disposition to get to
the .bottom of the matter.
"Don't speak to me! I'm Civiliza
tion!'' the figure made answer, some
what pettishly.—New York Post.

NO RIGHTS IS WAR BUT
ALL WRONG SftYS CRAVES
Women Among Auditors Knit for Suf
ferers Abroad While Former Spy
Lectures—Account of Conditions is 1
Sane and Instructive
"I aim not here to convince you of
the rights of any nation now at war!
in Europe, for there are no rights in'
this war —all wrongs," said Br. Arm-'
igiaard Karl Graves, for twelve years the i
Kaiser's spy, in his- lecture last night
at the Majestic theatre on inside facts
concerning the European struggle, and
this declaration tells much of the na
ture of his talk.
The theatre was not filled, but fairly
well occupied by interested persons who
did not hesitate to asji questions ot'
the speaker at the close of his talk,
when lie gave that opportunity. Dur
ing the evening several of the women
in the audience were busily engaged in
knitting for the war sufferers, while
listening attentively to all that was
said.
Few Startling Statements
I>r. Graves said little that was start
ling. He did not seem to exaggerate
in his statements, but gave a remark
ably sane and instructive account of
present conditions in, Europe, as well
as of incidents immediately preceding
the outbreak of hostilities. He told
some things that may not be generally
known, produced his proofs, and, it is
safe to say, imposed on nobody's cre
dulity.
When asked if he,did not think war
could be prevented by mutual agree
ment between nations, the speaker
strenuously objected to the idea that
universal brotherly love is possible,
asking, "why, if "God intended us all
to be alike, did he give the Japs slit
eyes f'
Some Striking Points
The many interesting statements
made by Dr. Graves cannot all be re
membered by those who hea.rd him, ex
cept as they are recalled from time to
time as events transpire which thoy
concern, .hist of a few of his most
striking points were, that German air
craft would have nothing to gain by
threatening London, for they would
ha.ve to sail away after a bombard
ment, being able only to attack, not to
occupy; that the Germans would have
110 trouble in taking Paris, but would
only lose by doing so because an im
mense force would be required to gar
rison the city when occupied; that Oer
niauy will hardly be able to hold Bel
ijiuiii when peace is declared; that the
Russians are now aiming at Constanti
nople, and that Italy will fare well at
the close of the conflict, no matter what
turn affairs take.
SILENCED THE DUKE
Ludwig Barnay, the Actor, Put a Crimp
in Hia Royal Critic
The Duke of Saxe-Meiningen. who
died in his eighty-eighth year, nSU be
remembered as an enthusiastic support
er of the drama. In this connection
an amusing story was told by Ludwig
Barnay, the actor, in his memoirs. Bar
nay was playing at Meiningen in the
role of Hamlet.' The performance had
begun and trumpets were ushering in
the king and prince for the second
scene. The advance of the procession
was ehecked by a loud "Halt!" from
the stalls. It was the Duke, who had
entered unnoticed and proceeded to
amend the performance.
''That's not the way to do it! In
stead of a sulvo of trumpets you must
play the Danish national anthem. And
the king and prince shouldn't come on
together; they haven't met. yet! "
'' Nonsense! " murmured Barnay.
Unfortunately he was overheard.
"And, pray, why is it nonsense, M.
Barnay.
The actor explained that, according
to the text, Hamlet and the king had
already met outside.
"Of. Grabowsky," called the Duke to
the producer, "continue as M. Barnay
wishes. He is quite right. I never
mind acknowledging a mistake!"
The piece proceeded. When the play
ers' scene was reached and Barnay was
reciting the actor Vpart, with "Aeneas'
Tale to Dido," he spoke the lines hesi
tatingly.
'' M. Barnay,'' interposed the Duk»\
"why did you deliver those lines so
badly t"
"Because Hamlet- is not an actor,
sire, but only an amateur!''
"But Polonius praises his acting!"
"Ah, your higness," answered Bar
nay, "but then Polonious was a cour
tier, and courtiers find everything that
princes do marvelous!"
The Duke laughed heartily and inter
rupted no more that day.

713 W. C. T. U. MEMBERS
Organization Is Largest Women's Body
in World Says Speaker
A history of the temperance move
j ment in this country was given at a
meeting of the Dauphin County Wom
en's Christian Temperance Union at
j Grace Methodist church yesterday aft
j ernoon by the president, Mrs. M. M.
Stees. She spoke of the W. C. T. IT.
as the largest women's organization in
the world. There are 713 members
of the organization in this city, many
of whom were received during the
Stou£h evangelistic campaign through
the efforts of Miss Sara Palmer, of the
iStough party.
It was decided at the meeting to
publish a book in whicli should appear
the names of all applicants for liquor
licenses in the county, together with
the signers of petitions and the owners
of property rented for saloon purposes.
The reason ascribed for the move is to
give wide publicity to such names in
the hope of giving prominence to church
members who appear in the lists.
