    TERM'S ORIGIN IN DISPUTE
Many Explanations of the Letters "O.
K.," Have Been Made, but Few
Are Trustworthy.
Quite n cyelo of legendary oxplunif
tlons have gathered mound tlio origin
of tliu popular term "0. K." It Is hold
, Unit In early colonlnl duys the best
ruin mid tobacco wore Imported from
Aux Cuyos, In Sun Domingo. Hence
the host of anything came lo he known
locally ns Aux Gayen. or "0. K."
. Another explanation refers to the
use of "Old Keokuk," an Indian chief,
who Is said to have signed treaties
with the Initials "O. K." However,
tlio torm didn't come Into general use
until tlio iiresldentlnl campaign of
1828, when the supiiosed Illiteracy of
Androw Jackson, tho Democratic can
didate, led Soba Smith, the humorist,
writing under the name of "Major
Jack Downing," to start the story that
Jackson Indorsed his papers "0. IC."
under tlio Impression that they formed
tho Initials of "Oil ICorrect."
James I'nrlon, the rioted biogra
pher, discovered In tho records of tho
Nnshvlllo court, of which Jackson
was Judge, numerous documents In
dorsed "O. R.," moaning "order re
scinded." IIo thereforo urged that It
was n belated business that Major
Downing saw on the desk of the pros
Idontlnl candidate. Tho Democrats, In
llouof denying the charge, adopted
the letters "O. K." as a sort of party
cry and fastened them on their ban
ners. ONE -OF THE OLDEST METALS
Abundant Proof That Iron Has Doen
In Use Since the Very Earliest
Days.
Iron must havo been familiar In tho
time of Moses. A wedgo made of Iron
was left In the grout pyramid by the
builders, which proves that the metal
wns known and In use about 1,000 B,
C. Besides, In tho fourth chapter ol
Genesis, It Is mentioned that Tubal
Cain was a pioneer In developing the
arts of iron making and brass work
ing. Brass, however, was a very In
definite term among the natives. When
spoken of In tho Scriptures It Is sel
dom to bo understood to signify the
alloy of copper and zinc now called
by thnt name. Tho "brass" tempered
for edged tools or weapons of war
was n bronze, usually a compound of
copper and tin.
Copper was also known to mankind
nt a very curly period, Articles of cop
per wero found 8t feet under the
statuo of Barneses the Great, which
Was erected ,ii00 years ago. Debris
has accumulated there to a depth of
nlno feet, and the copper articles were
found, on further excavation, 72 feet
lower down.
Gretna Green.
Gretnn Gref;n, the rendezvous of
doping couples, was once the haunt
of persons who exercised cupidity nt
the expense of Cupid, and innkeepers,
ferrymen and tollhouse tenders ex
ploited the couples who tied there.
Any witnesses served to make tho
marriages recognized as legal, but the
"professional witnesses' there, like
tho "marrying parsons" of some Amer
ican towns, engaged "touts" to bring
couples to them, and when the rail
road from Glasgow to Carlisle started
running, the Htation plntform at Gret
na Green thronged with iheso obnox
ious "commissioned men."
According to a popular legend,
blacksmith shops wero favorite mec
cas for eloping couples, but authority
Is lacking for stories of smithies who
would pauso while shooing horses to
help lognllzo marriages.
Hntshopou-Pharaah.
Who antedated De Lesseps (1800)
by 4,000 years In digging tho Suez
canal? A woman, llatshopsu-l'ha-raoh.
She ascended tho throne of
Kgypt with her brother, Thothmes II,
nbout 1000 B. 0. Her courage and ca
pacity brought tho , reins of govern
ment Into her own hands. At tho
death of .Thothmes she was tho mas

woman built the splendid terraced
rock temple of Dulr-cl-Buhnr! on thu

LEONARD WOOD,
WOOD HAS VARIED
CIVIL EXPERIENCE
ADMINISTRATIVE QUALITIES ARE
TESTED AMD PROVED IN HAN-
PROBLEMS. J
By EDWARD B. CLARK. t
From time to time pcoplo nsk, I
"What lias been tho ndmlnlstrntlvo i
nnd business) experience of Leonard 1
Wood? What has been his experlcnco i
with men outside of the nrmy? Whnt
does he know nbout conditions In tho
different pnrts of tho United States
and In our overseas possessions ?IIns
be any thorough knowledge of foreign
affairs and of our foreign relations?"
The administrative qualities of
Leonard Wood havo been tested and
proved. No Amerlcnn living hns been
tried mora thoroughly than he In com
plex Holds of constructive civil work,
administrative work of the highest
order which carried with It tho neces
sity for the oxerclso of keen business
acumen.
Tho republic of Cubit, built upon
firm democratic foundations, Is a mon
ument to tho administrative, ability of
Leonard Wood. In the Philippines is
to bo found another monument to his
statesmanship.
Lconnrd Wood graduated In medi
cine from Harvard University in 1881
and served for moro than a year In
ono of the great hospitals, later to ,
take chargo of tlio charity depart-
ments In a section of tho city of Bos
ton where tho poor lived.
Not long after the completion of
Wood's work In Boston ho beenmo an
assistant surgeon In tho army, coming
Into contact with tho western plains
man, tho miner, tho peoplo generally,
and giving much of his time to tlio
work of assisting tho Indians and to
a study of tho problems of Irrigation
and reclamation.
Then for Leonard Wood there camo
four years In California. IIo covered
the state many times In pursuance of
his duties and extended his Held as
occasion required Into tho states of
the Northwest. Then for two years ho
was In servlco In tho South, huvlug
headquarters In Georgia.
From tho South Leonard Wood went
to tho city of Washington, whero his
work brought hint Into dally contuct
tvlth Grovcr Cleveland. Thon he had
the same Intimate relations-with Wil
liam McICInlcy and tho men of his
time.
Then enmo tho Spanish war and tho
nctlvo campaign lu Cuba as tho col
onel of the regiment of rough riders
of which Theodoro Boosevelt wns tho
lieutenant colonel.
At tho closo of tho Spanish war
Leonurd Wood's supremo admlnlstrn
ttvo duties began. Ho was mttdo tho
governor of tho city of Santiago and
a few weeks later of tho ontlro east
ern half of Cuba.
Under Wood profiteering was abol
ished, Industry was built up, agricul
ture rehabilitated, hospitals organ
ized, equipped and maintained, tens
of thousands of peoplo clothed nnd
fed nnd all this dono In it thorough
buslnessllko mnntter. It was dono un
fler tribulations which nroso fro.n
tho fuct that tho peoplo wero Im
poverished to tho point of starva
tion and had been dying by thousands
for tho lack of tho things which Wood
lulckly provided.
Thon thore came the rehabilitation
of tho municipalities, tho establish
ment of schools, tho oponlng of rouds,
tho organizing of government In the
provinces, tho londjuntnumt of taxa
tion nnd of the courts, and the work
of providing for the thoiuundB of chil
dren mndo orphnni by wnr or famine.
Thovo was moro business ami mors
ADMINISTRATOR PI
varieties of it than It has been tho lot
of many men ever to hnvo placed up
on their shoulders.
Not long after this there enmo the
greater opportunities In Havnna. It
was necessary to re-writo tho election
laws to make them fit the habits of tho
peoplo. Production had to be stimu
lated, for ngrlculttiro was tho main
source of tho Island's wealth. Hero
again the same measures wero follow.
ed and ns a result there were estab
lished law and order, protection of
life and property, and liberty with
in tho law.
These were the foundation stones.
Wood knew that the government must
bo. run by tho Cubans, and ho 00 per
cent of tho ofllcluls cnKiiced In the
great wprk of reconstruction were
selected from tho peoplo of tho Islund.
Tho Cubans wero taught government
while tho government was being built
and thus they wero nblo to run It when
tho rulo of the Island was turned over
to Its Inhabitants.
When It became necessary to reor
ganize the Cuban railroads Wood se
cured the services of Sir William Van
Home, president of tho Canadian Pa
cific, and of Granville M. Dodge, build
er of the Union Pacific.
Tho sumo general policy was fol
lowed In dealing with tho problem of
caring for,tho tens of thousands of
orphans that hnd been left by the war.
Homer Folks, commissioner of chnrl
ties of tho state of New York, was
called to Cuba by Wood to aid In tifv
establishment of a system for plnclng
nnd permanently caring for these lit
tle desolates. Chief Justice White
of the Supreme court of the United
htates, at that tlmo an associate Jus
tice, was consulted as to the method to
be pursued in reorganizing tho courts.
Lconnrd Wood wns in Cuba about
four years. IIo left there a reorgan
ized nnd sound banking system, n
good railroad system, no debts, nearly
$2,000,000 unincumbered money In the
treasury, a sugar crop of nearly 1,000,
000 tons, sound municipal laws, fine
public works, n firm agricultural
foundation and an absolute respect
among the .people for life nnd prop
erty. The school system which Wood
estnbllshed was founded on the laws
of Massachusetts nnd Ohio. Bonds
were built which mndo communication
speedy. Tho hospitals erected under his
supervision wero of the hlehest tvno.
Lord Cromer said ho wished this
American officer was nvallablo to fol
low him In his reconstruction work
In Egypt. Ellhu Boot said this work
never was paralleled In colonial pos
sessions anywhere. Theodore Rnnso-
velt said that Leonard Wood "has
rendered services to Cuba of n kind
which, If performed threo thousand
years ago, would have made him n
hero mixed up with tho sun god In va
rious wnys."
After tho Cuban experience Wood
was for five years In tho Phlllnnlnes
confronted with the difficult labor of
establishing a civil government, this
tlmo among a Mohammedan people.
Thero ho did the sanio successful
work ho did In Cubn.
This period of residence In tho Phil
ippines gave Wood nn opportunity to
study conditions In the British colo
nies, Borneo, Singapore, and to keep
In close touch with conditions In
Japan and nlong the China coast
Wood traveled through India, spent
some time with the Dutch In Java, and
with Lord Cromer In Egypt. ne
gained and retained knowledgo of nil
which at that tlmo enmo under his stu
dlous observation.
Then Leonard Wood became chief
of the general staff of tho Unltei
States army, In whose hands rests
very largely the dlrectlou and ndmln
1st rat Ion of the military establishment
which lifter all Ik 00 per cent a bust
