NO-MAN'S-LAND.
But Little Importance Given at Washing
ton to the Claim of the CherOlkees.

But Little Importance Given at Washing
ton to the Claim of the CherOkees.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-The claim Of the
Cherokee Nation to the public land strip,
or t'No- Man S. Land, - as it has been called,
is not looked upon as of any great impor
lance by the Indian officials, and is supposed
to grow out of the imperfect records OF the
Nation, rather than any substantial basis.
The Cherokees have long been under the
impress sion, as have many Western people
of that vicinity, that the public land strip,
which is almost paral ell in its boundary
lines with what is known as the Cherokee
outlet was part of that concession to
the Cherokees. By the treaties of 1888 and
1885 the outlet, extending along the entire
Nation boundary of what is now the In
dian Territory, was granted the Cherokees
as an outlet to the great hunting grounds
and ranges OF the West and Northwest.
1t was patented to them in 1886, but in 1856
they reconveyed it, together with other
lands, including these which now go to
make the proposed Territory OF Oklahoma,
to be used in settling friendly tribes of In
dians or freedmen, who may have been
slaves among the five civilized tribes. II
the public land strip was included in the
Cherokee outlet by the treaty of 1893, it
was coded by the treatyof 1866, but the gen.
eral opinion is expressed by the authorities
of the Interior Department that this land
was never included in the treaties men
toned and that the Cherokees through
usage have gained wrong impression rela-
tive to this land

Thousands of Years Saved.

One may get some idea of what rail-
ways mean in the saving of time and
money to passengers. by taking the
case of London. 1t is estimated that
about 100000 persons, or about one
tenth of the population of the entire
urea of the metropolis, require to travel
to and from their business every day
all the year round. If we remember
the distances, it is not too much to
assume that the railway will economize
for each at least two hours in the week,
or, say five days per annum each. This
over 500,0 900 of people means 100000
days, or an economy of $500 years Of
800 working days each. Suppose the
average earnings Of these 100000 peo-
pie TO be El00 per Gnnum each, not too
high an average when we remember
the number of millionaires included in
the total, we shall gee a total money
saving, in the sense of time being
money, of equal to ESQ, 900 per annum.
And this in London alone.-Cbam6erS'

THE TREATING HABIT.
Some Excellent Advice to Young Com
mercial Travellers.


mercial Travellers.
We want to say a few words about
the habit of treating customers to
drinks, and to caution the younger
members of the fraternity especially
against this practice. 1t has been our
experience, and no doubt is that of
every old commercial traveller on the
road, that it don't pay; view it from
whatever standpoint you may. We
are lowering our own manhood when
we do it and are STOPPING to mean and
unbusinesslike methods to secure q
customer. Besides a customer that
can be induced to buy from US by a few
glasses of liquor or a couple of schooners
of beer will not prove much of an ac-
QUESTION to the house, and ninety-nine
chances out of a hundred will prove a
''black eye" to them financially. A
leading commercial traveller in the CITY
OF Philadelphia, some years ago made
this remark, after a long experience
in mercantile life: q have never
known a single customer that was Sc
cured and held by the practice of treat
ing that did not in the end become
scOurge to the house obtaining him."
So don't do it. Every man that is real
ly worth securing for a customer, and
a paying one, will be insulted by
the proposition and the insinuation
contained therein, be the invitation
clothed In language however cordial.
OF course offering customer, already
secured by honorable means, friend
ly cigar in good-fellowship does not
come under this head and is all right.
But when liquor, or beer, or cigars
even, are held out as bride, to induce
man to buy, the act is an insult to
manhood, and all of the trade that are
really men will resent it. The day for
that sort of thing is past The COM
mercial traveller who depends on the
bar " for his inspiration is fast disap-
pearing into the great unknown. Peo-
pie are being rapidly educated up to a
higher idea of life, in the commercial
world as in the social. The time was
when young man about going on the
road said: Goodbye, honesty; good
bye, decency; goodbye, sobriety; am
going to be a commercial traveller
But the time is fast approaching when
he will say: Goodbye, dishonesty;
goodbye, dissipation; goodbye, decep-
ton; l am going on the road" Itmay
be some time, but it is bound to come.
Let the boys" begin right here by
dropping the treating "act," and by
so doing lift the profession at least one
notch higher in the estimation of the
public.-Merchant Traveller.

Insanity from Drink.

An English magistrate has been set
ting himself up as an authority on the
question of the causatiOn of insanity
by the habitual or excessive use of al
coholic liquor. During a recent in
qulry into the sanity of a person alleged
to be Of unsound mind and addicted to
the use Of ardent spirits, he demurred to
the answer of the expert who, asked
whether drink would of itself cause
lunacy, " unhesitatingly affirmed that it
would. To this Justice Dogberry re-
torted with the query whether the wit
ness did not know that ga man in q
state Of intoXication would do stupid
things and then completely recover
himself after being locked up for forty
eight hours" and would he "call that
Insanity"
The matter is of quite enough i'm
portance to merit attention on this side
the Atlantic, where questions of I'M
sound mind are adjudicated by men
having fully as vague notions as this
English judge on the subject of mental
diseases. 1t should be understood, not
only by such men but by the public
generally that alcohol is an entirely
sufficient cause of insanity.
Delirium tremens is a common re-
suit of excessive indulgence; hardening
of the brain tissues with impairment OF
mental function Cerebral sclerosis) is
frequently caused by the long-con-
tinued use of spirituous liquors; while
not seldom acute alcoholic delirium
may pass directly into absolute and
confirmed insanity-often with suicidal
or homicidal tendency.
There is absolutely no safety for the
man addicted to drinking who allows
his reason ever to become clouded by
an overindulgence. For him there is
no middle way, He must either touch
not, taste not, handle not" or run the
risk of the most deplorable termina-
ton of his habit. Chicago NeaOS.
