WICHITA, Kans., July 13.—Count Oblenski Romanoff Dimitri has put on his tailored suit, his high hat, carefully sdjusted his white spats. and with bis cane swung at 4 pugnacious angle, started back to New York. And he isn't going - to stay there long, but intends to take the first ship available to re- turn to Russia and bolshevism. The count, has given up his job of laborer in the oil flelds near here, and it's all because of the Oklahoma clay. Dimitri planned ta start at the bottom in the oil business and work up. He start- ed below the bottom, because his first job was a ditch- digger, and his sole advancement was when he stepped up out of the ditch and vay from work. “Although Russia is a veritable hornet's nest,’ said the count, T shall return there immediately. 1 think my future will be. better there than here. In this country the clay 1 have found is the worst mixture T have ever seen. I could hardly get my spade into it, and after T got it in I could hardly get it out,"and when I got it out I couldn’t get it oft.” CLAIMS HOLD-UP RECORD.
