10 THE L
i
Prominent Part She Is Now. Taking
in the Development of
Oklahoma.
HOW A GIRL GOT HER CLAIM.
Miss Marinette Daisy's Leap from
Cowcatcher of an Engine
When She "Located."
A person of persistent prominence
in the development of Oklahoma is the
woman homesteader. Since the first
day of the opening of old Oklahoma
to settlement In 1889, when Nannette
Daisy jumped from a cowcatcher of
an engine on the first train that
brought thousands of homeseekers into
the territory and staked off a claim in
"the promised land," the woman home
steader has been occupying a front
seat in Oklahoma's inarch of progress.
The instances are not few where
women have staked off claims, superin
tended the cultivation for years and
finally won the prize a deed to a
quarter section of land from Uncle
Sam, says a Guthrie (Okla.) corre
spondent of the Arkansas Gazette.
Leaping from the engine. Miss Daisy
climbed a small embankment, made
when the road was constructed, and
hastily disengaging herself from a
white underskirt, she pinned it to a
neighboring blackjack bush and called
to the other passengers as the train
Btarted ahead with renewed speed:
"This is my homestead!"
That tract of land, near Waterloo
and lying along He Santa Fe's main
line through this State, is still known
as the Daisy farm. She made good on
the claim, got a patent from the gov
ernment and held the farm in her
name until the time of her death in
Chicago several years ago. She attain
ed considerable prominence in Okla
homa politics in the early days and
was a personal friend of many men
who have since become wealthy and
well known in political and business
circles. Afterward she married a sol
dier, one of the men stationed at Fort
Reno, and following bis retirement
from the service they moved to Chi
cago, where she died.
It is estimated that more than 100
lone women held claims in Beaver
County last winter, as a rule living in
dugouts and waiting for the spring
time in order to cultivate the land.
It's a plucky thing to do, but it's a
pluck that In practically every in
stance brings success as well as health
and freedom.
After they have lived on their claims
during the period specified by Uncle
Sam they make application for final
proof, the last thing necessary before
obtaining deeds. J. S. Fischer, a Uni
ted States land commissioner at Tex
homa, says, as a rule, the women pick
the choice tracts of land. In this con
nection it is interesting to note that
the United States commissioner at
Tyrone, in Beaver County, is a woman
Mrs. Susan Henley. Many women
homesteaders appear before her to file
on claims and make final proofs.
The woman at the "head of a farm
Is in almost every instance a special
ist. In numerous cases they have been
exceedingly successful In different
lines of horticulture, agriculture and
raising of live stock.
SHOT AT INQUISITIVE TOURIST.
Woman'a Story of Attempted Killing
In Monqiio of Omnr In Jcruaalem.
In a letter to a frlond in this city,
the Orange (N. J.) correspondent of
the New York Sun says Mrs. Herbert
Turrell tells the story of the attempted
assassination on March 9 of Mrs. Moore
in the mosque of Omar at Jerusalem,
of which she was an eye witness. Mrs.
Turrel Bays she Is convinced that wom
en have no business to enter sac;od
places where the country holds that
they should not be admitted. She says
that the fanatic who fired the plutal
thought he was doing his duty.
"We stopped at the golden gate oppo
site Solomon's court," writes Mrs. Ter
rell, "to have sandals placed on our
feot We of the second party wero as
sembled just outside of the outr
screen, when we heard a pistol shot,
followed by four or Ave other shots in
rapid succession. At first I thought it
was a bomb; then I saw a flash and
smoke. Wo rushed ot the right of the
mosque in the opoaite direction from
the firing.
"Following the report women shriek
ed and thore was a rushing dound as
of people running. Our guide told us
bt would see what the matter was. We
crouched in the corner by a huge pil
lar, not knowing how soon an attack
would be made upon us. Our first
thought was that there was an upris
ing ot the Mohammedans.
"The party which had preceded us
was unquestionably Involved, as the
shrieks of women plainly indicated. We
were told that a crazy man had fired
a plsto and that the women were
frightened. We realized that there had
been a tragedy, but were willing to
accept any kind of explanation.
"The guide said the man had been
filing blank cartridges and had been
arrested. He then proceeded to tell
the history of the mosque and we pre
tended to listen to what he said. We
passed out of a door Into a court and
her we were horrified to see blood
snot and a sheik was mopping blood
from the floor.
"Our guide Insisted that It was a
Quarrel among the moslems and that
nothing serious had happened. Hi led
A
us across the court to the fountain of
puriflcatl,on. Just a3 we were about
to enter the temple we heard a call
that made our blood run cold.
"Our guide hastened to see what was
wanted and several sheiks beckoned to
us to leave at once. We had our san
dals removed by men, who hastened
toward us for this purpose. Our guide
told us that he was wanted and that
he must leave us. He tried to have
us accept the services of a dragoman
to conduct us from the mosque.
"Members of our party protested and
he remained with us. The attitude of
the sheiks, as though prepared for an
attack, was not alluring, and I felt that
at any moment we would be shot at.
Our guide finally took us to the Chris
tian street, which led us to the Joppa
gate. An empty carriage passed and
several of our party took it and drove
to the hotel.
"We learned the details of the shoot
ing later. It appeared that a woman
member of the party that had preceded
us in the mosque had been shot in the
face. A priest in the mosque held the
man, who was on the point of reloading
his revolver and who was within twen
ty-five yards of our party. The car
riage used to convey the Injured wom
an, Miss Moore, from the mosque was
the one In which Mrs. Anna L. Tlche
ner, of Newark, and Mrs. Lebkkeucher,
of East Orange, drove to the mosque.
TABULATING CENSUS BE TURNS,
Mechanism of Machine Which Are
Labor and Time Savera.
The automatic machine is the most
recent development in census tabulat
ing machinery, and had it been per
fected earlier much of the hand ma
chines could have been dispensed with,
though, in most cases where readings
must be taken very frequently, the
hand machines are almost, if not quite,
as economical.
Whether in the hand machine or in
the automatic, the counters are oper
ated by means of electrical contacts
made through the punched holes, ac
cording to E. Dana Durand In the
American Review of Reviews. The
machines are so wired that facts can
be counted in combination with one
another. Thus it is possible to count
at the same time facts with regard to
age and marital condition, so as to
show, for Instance, on one counter the
number of married persons from 21 to
25 years of age, on another those from
25 to 30, and on others the number
of single persons of these two age
periods. Each machine, in fact, is
provided with a large number of count
ers; as many as sixty counters will
be used in certain "runs." Even thus,
however, It would be quite impossible
to count all the manifold combinations
of Items at a single "run" of the card.
Each card on the average must be
passed through the tabulating ma
chines five or six times. In other
words, the work is equivalent to tabu
latlng approximately 500,000 cards.
Even the hand machines used at the
present census are much more rapid
than those of ten years ago. In 1900
the counters used consisted of dials,
from each of which the results for
each county or other unit of presenta
tion had to be read by the eye and
taken down on sheets of paper. The
present machines are so arranged that
the results on all the counters can
be printed at the some time by merely
pressing a button. This change abso
lutely prevents errors, which frequent
ly arose In the reading of the dials,
and also greatly economizes clerical
labor.
IHE MIRACLE.
She's but a little colleen gay,
Scarce thicker than me thumb.
But oh, the word she spoke the day!
'Tls blind I am, and dumb.
Her small mouth had a pleadln twist
As though 'twas wishful to be kissed;
I thought It gave the true word whist.
And hope lept in the heart ot me.
But when I tried itoh, the Mow
The little hand laid on me cheek!
Twas but a feather's weight, I know,
But sure, it left me faint and weak.
And oh, the look that changed her
eyes! -
Twas like the change of Erin's skies
From shine to storm the black sur
prise And sorrow burst the heart o me.
She stood there lashln me bold ways
So weak the gentle tongue of her,
Compared with some I've got 'twas
praise-
Then somethin', sudden, seemed to
stir
Within me breast The truth it lept
Straight out, beJike as ift had slept;
Then right into me arms she crept
Sure, Joy's near . crazed the heart of
me.

I The Pledge
1 of the Poor
The Price of Fame.
It was In the office of one of the bl
theaters. A lot of actors were hang
ing around, a couple of journalists
and a secretary or two. A young
woman dropped in for a hasty greet
ing, and then paused a moment to
speak to a very well-known actor
whom she evidently met for the first
time. The press agent's desk was
open, and in a corner was a package
of pictures of the celebrated actor.
The latter looked them over, and as
the young woman exclaimed that he
should give her one he said, with an
insinuating smile to the press agent:
"Alas, they are not jnine. They be
long to Mr. Dash!"
"I can't give any away," said the
latter. "Each one costs mi 20 cents."
"Surely that is cheap!" the young
lady suggested.
The press agent ignored her and
turned to the actor.
"Cheap? Do you think anybody
would pay that much for you?"
And the young lady laughed anf
went without her picture.
A Qnotlim of Term.
Mrs. Bronson My husband is plain
spoken; he calls a spade a spade.
Mrs. Woodson So does mine, but I

It's a sign that a small boy has a
good disposition It he doesn't resent
being told he looks like his father.
Nearly every man wants to lay off
every time he seea a flag, or hears a
hand
The little old father seemed very
dear to Margaret, who was watching
him as he wrote his records rapidly
In his small, cramped hand." It was
all or nearly all, that he wrote. Long
ago he had given up hope of the book
which was to have been his life work,
and buried it deep beneath a country
physician's responsibilities. Margaret
had always resented this. What right
had these people to his life, who scarce
ly accorded him a living?
"Father," she said, suddenly, "what
are you writing?"
He held the page with his forefinger,
as he met her cold gray eyes with, a
pair startlingly like them. Then he
smiled, and two wrinkles disappeared
from his forehead, and two appeared
about his mouth.
"Just visits, dear, to pay and to he
paid for," he answered.
"There are many more of the first
than of the last, aren't there?"
"Why, surely."
He smiled as he said it, but Mar
garet did not smile. So It had always
been, so it would always be four to
pay and one to be paid for. And they
needed many things. No one knew
that better than Margaret. Much re
sponsibility devolved on her. The lit
tle half-Invalid mother must not know,
the children could not, the father did
not. But Margaret had a complete un
derstanding of the lease of life accord
ed boyish boots, of the wants, wishes
and needs of growing girls.
"She thought with hot Impatience of
her father's coat how green it had
looked in yesterday's blaze of sunlight!
How. green it would look in the sun
light of how many to-morrows! It was
not right; it was not fair. She had a
fierce impulse to hide him away from
others and himself; to lighten his path
with the success herjove and ambition
craved. He spent himself freely on
those who gave not again. He threw
his love, his learning, his very life Into
a battle which was not to the strong.
Margaret laid down the scarcely
touched sewing. The offer of assist
ance trembled on her lips. But before
she had time to speak, a knock sound
ed. Margaret knew that knock hurried,
anxious, impatient, that would not be
denied. The old door had echoed to
many scores of just such knocks.
"O dear!" she said. Her father
started as soon as she. Knocks like
that, the call to arms of the physician,
sounded through his deepest slumbers.
He was transformed in the twinkling
of an eye. The wearied old man was
the alert physician, confident, eager
eyed, the light of battle on his face.
Margaret's heart thrilled as she looked
at him. '
In a moment he was back. He turn
ed to Margaret, half-laughing.
"It's Mrs. Barr's baby the health
iest little mite. Quite likely It is
merely a pin sticking him, but I'll
have to go and set her mind at rest."
"But you're so tired. Why don't
you let her wait till morning?"
"Why, Margaret! By morning I
should have two patients on my hands.
You don't know these young mothers."
"I know they haven't much consid
eration."
Now, Margaret, that isn't like you.
How can we expect her to think of
anything but her little sick child?"
As he talked the physician had been
throwing things In a little black bag.
He shut it now with a sharp click.
It's quite probable there's nothing
much the matter with the baby. If
not, I'll be back to-night. If I should
be detained, though, I may have to
take the train Instead of coming
home."
"I thought the convention was next
week."
"It is, but I'm leaving two days
ahead of time. There's a case Parker
wants to talk over with me."
Margaret flushed with pride at the
honor so simply stated. After all,
there were some who appreciated him.
"But what about the bills you were
going to make out. father? You see,
the girls' winter things have to come,
and " "
"Jack's shoes, and Robert's, and I
know them all, my little troubled Mar
tha, but I can't delay to-night"
"Could I make them out? Even a
day makes a difference."
"Why, to be sure you could. It
vould be a help to me"
ie picked up the book, ana rapidly
turned the pages, marking here and
there with a cross.-'He passed the book
to Margaret.
"Get out these I have marked, like
a good girl, Margaret, and you'll soon
have in what you need.'"
Then, with a hasty good-by, be was
gone.
In the morning be had not returned,
and Margaret sat long with the little
leather-covered book In her hand, idly
turning the pages. The places marked
with a cross were not many. She
had counted and recounted the ones
which were reasonably sure to pay.
The sum total was pitifully inade
quate. Even If every , one he had
marked paid In full and at once, there
was an alarming deficit. There was
nothing she could do.
But suddenly, as that thought came
to her puzzled brain, another followed.
There was something she could do
something that would set things
straight for the present and leave a
little margin for the encroaching fu
ture. In a moment the Impotent
leather-covered book had assumed the
proportions of the purse of Fortunatus.
There were dozens and dozens of
visits with no check after them. Her
father had not intended to send them
out, but If she did, and the reluctant
bills were safely paid, who could be
anything but glad about it?
Once decided, she wrote rapidly In
her large, firm hand, so different from
her father's. The table was .soon Jit
tered with bills. On those of longest
standing she wrote, "Please remit."
When the rural postman arrived, she
had a load for him. And then she
waited.
The waiting was not long. That
evening there came a timid, hesitating
knock on the door where a peremptory
summons so often sounded. Margaret
threw It wide. For a moment she did
not know the woman who stood before
her, a shawl thrown over her head.
But she knew the voice.
"It's Mrs. Halloran, Miss Margaret,
my dear. I've brung the money. Tell
me, Is it sick the doctor Is?"
"Why, no. Father is quite well,
but "
"Is it yer mother worser, thin?"
"No," answered Margaret. "What
made you think so?"
"Won't ye tell me what's wrong, my
dear?" persisted the woman. "Sure,
THERE WAS AN ALABMINQ DEFICIT.
maKinjs uo excuses, Margaret told her
tale, hardly daring to meet her fath
er's eyes.
He did not speak for a moment.
When he did, it was very tenderly,
"My little girl!" Youth's Companion.
INFANT MORTALITY.
I knowed there was a somethin' whin
it came, the bill marked 'Plase remit.
My Dannie read it to me. Says I,
'He's in trouble, the little doctor.'
Thin out I goes an' sells the cow. An'
here's the money, Miss Margaret,
thirty-five dollars. It leaves five
owin', but Dannie'll soon raise that,
an' I'll run up wid it. If 'twar thirty
five hundred I'd not begrudge It fur
what he's done for me."
She undid the knots in an old ban
danna handkerchief, and brought to
light the pieces of shining gold. Her
face, seamed and marked by care, her
work-worn hands, appealed to Mar
garet. She spoke Impulsively, putting
the gold back in the old handkerchief.
"Mrs. Halloran, I want you to take
this money and buy your cow again.
The need is not so pressing a way
has come since that bill was sent that
makes it unnecessary for us to take
It."
The relief was plain on the woman's
face. She protested, but feebly, while
her old hand hovered over the coin.
It is not lightly that one relinquishes
the means of livelihood. She patted
Margaret's hand.
"Ye're yer father's own daughter,
my dear. I couldn't speak a finer word
about ye. He's a good man the best
I ever knowed; that merciful to the
poor, ye wouldn't believe. He'd be
doin' much better in a better neigh
borhood. But the blessln' of the poor
I think that goes for somethin'."
Margaret razed her air-castles of
unclean foundations to the ground. In
the morning, after she bad made her
mother comfortable and sent the chil
dren to school, she took the old horse
and cart and started out on her round
of visits. And just as the angel once
spared the houses marked, so Margaret
dealt mercifully with the ones which
were not She collected the disturbing
little slips of paper, reading a lesson
in many a poverty-stricken place. In
some the money was ready, in some
it was not, but no one had blamed the
doctor.
Margaret was glad of that. To each
she gave the same excuse the bills
had been sent by mistake. She did not
feel the words an untruth. She sighed
as she drove homeward. So far things
had turned out well, but the hardest
part was to come. It would be difficult
to explain to her father, to feel hla
disappointment In her. Yet inconsist
ently, she longed for his return.
She drove to the station to meet
him. All the way home she pondered
how to tell him, while they talked of
trivial things. Just a question, "Any
of my patients been up, Margaret?"
And then It was out Blundering
lr. stumblingly, sparing not herself.
Greater Number of Birth a Well
.a Death Among; Poor.
An investigation just made by the
New York milk committee with a view
to getting definite information as to
the effects of infant mortality on so
cial and economic conditions has re
sulted in some interesting disclosures.
Three sections of the city were se
lected for study, varying much In size,
owing to different densities of popula
tion, but each! containing about 7,500
persons. In the first, inhabited large
ly by the rich, only thirty-seven chil
dren were born In a year; in the sec
ond, where the circumstances of the
people were what is called comfort
able, the births numbered 160, while
in the third, where poverty prevailed,
434 babies-were born.
But during two summer weeks, one
of them the hottest of the year, not
one of the thirty-seven babies or of
the 160 died, while among the 434
there were sixteen deaths. The figures
are not large enough to warrant any
final conclusions as to percentages,
but doubtless they are fairly charac
teristic of the three classes. The im
munity of the babies in the two more
fortunate classes during this hot fort
night only happened to be complete,
and that peculiarity would not be like
ly to be repeated.
That the one group did as well as
the other is explained by the inves
tigators as due to equally efficient care
in ' both, in the one case, however,
largely the care of ' highly trained
nurses, and in the second to that of
mothers with leisure and intelligence.
Among the very poor each of the much
more numerous babies had a decidedly
smaller chance of life, but many more
than enough of them survived to out
number the other groups. Probably
at the attainment of adult age the
difference1 will not be nearly as large,
for the excess of mortality will re
main where It began. New York

DANGERS OF PATENT LEATHER
Shiny Shoe Are a Menace to Life
and Limb la the City.
It has become a matter of some
doubt In the minds of many people
whether patent leather shoes should
be worn in the streets, the New York
Evening Sun says.
Is it safer or is it not? Should we
endanger our lives in the distraction
of traffic when, by wearing slightly
less shiny shoes, we could give our
attention to dodging automobiles and
ducking street cars? No child should
be allowed out alone in patent-leather
shoes that is decided without a mo
ment's doubt; but even people of ma
turer years are not quite responsible
for their own safety when wearing
patent-leather shoes.
, They cannot be, no matter what
their strength of character. If one's
shoes will shine, so one must watch
them, and if one walks with one's eyes
riveted on one's flashing feet, one of
necessity bumps into something, and
it is nothing less than cold luck If the
something is a . lamp-post or a post
man instead of a flying fire engine.
And then one's progress is so slow.
Absorbed, captivated, held spellbound
by one's own boot tips, one is so very
apt to arrive late at the place one was
going to or forget completely one's des
tination and sicking on to a park

DOLLARLESS DOLLTVAR.
Policeman' Concern for Senator s
Welfare When He Wa a Lad.
The son of a Methodist minister,
Senator Dolliver entered early upon a
political career; he had the old-fashioned
way of using anecdotes to illus
trate his points, which was then con
sidered effective, though he may have
changed his style with the times. He
is one of the orators who frankly ad
mit that they "like to talk," a taste
he thinks he may- have inherited from
his father and grandfather the latter
a Massachusetts sea-faring man, whose
cargo of cotton during the war of 1812
was confiscated by General Jackson;
if he had his grandson's eloquence it
is probable that he made some remarks
that would have been worthy of pres
ervation. When preaching on a large
circuit in Virginia, and often riding
200 miles in a week, Mr. Dolliver's
father met the lady who became hia
wife, and that is the reason that the
Senator halls from West Virginia, and
was educated at the state university
there.
After his -graduation at the age of
17 the young man decided to migrate
to Illinois, says the National Maga

"Standing In the railway station of
Columbus, O., a policeman tapped me
on the shoulder and with a warning

pockets in the United States has Just
been talking to a country boy who
has not a red cent to his name,' was
my reply."
