struggle, don't try to help yourself, and I'll
take you ashore. The more you struggle and
the more you try 10 help yourself the more
you impede me. Now be quiet and III take

says: That's right l am glad to see Christ,

Stop your doing. Christ will do all or none.
You cannot lift an ounce, you cannot move
an inch, in this matter of your redemption.
This is the difficulty which keeps thousan DIS

is because they cannot consent to let Jesus
Christ begin and complete the work Of their
redemption "Why,n you say, 'then Is there
nothing for me to DOR Only one thing nave

and let him achieve your salvation and

Col. Barr as an officer who had been sec

cOurt took n recess.
When the court reassembled the de
PENDANT announced he had selected Capt.
Knox, LIST cavalry, as counsel. As Capt.
Knox was a member of the court martial
it was necessary he should first be relieved.
The judge advocate therefore secured the
consent of the secretary of war to the
arrangement, and Capt. Knox was relieved
by special order. He stated he was not
prepared to Immediately proceed in the

The Coal Supplies of Apia.

WASHINGTON, April Il.-Respecting
the recent San Francisco dispatch
criticising the navy department for failure
to accept the offer of coal from Australia
for the American men-of-war at Apia,
Commodore Senley of the bureau of
equipment said: 1--WE do not yet know
that the loss OF our vessels at Apia is due
to lack of coal. My latest advices. dated
the last week in January, show there was
a supply OF coal on the beach amounting
to $50 tons. Nine weeks ago the Mo-
nongahela sailed from San Francisco to
Apia with 600 tons of coal which we had
on hand at Mare Island navy yard. 1t
was not therefore regarded necessary to
buy Wellington coal at so per ton, when
we had coal of our own which had been
bought and paid for. Wellington coal
will not bear exposure to the weather, and
it would not be good economy to lay in a
stock of it at a place where we have not
provision for shelter.

there are four temperaments: the ner-

why it is SO hard to live with her.

vides a Passage Way.
Thomas Walsh Arrives in New

He Obtained All the Money in
Sight and Skipped.
May Cross the Cherokee Country.

WASHINGTON, April lin answer to
an inquiry for the Secretary of war, on
behalf of a large number of persons con-
templating settlement in Oklahoma. ask
ing if permission is given these intended
settlers to cross the Cherokee outlet to
the north line of Oklahoma, about the
22d OF April, the date upon which the
presidents proclamation for opening the
territory goes into effect, the secretary of
the interior has replied in part as follows:
II think they may be allowed to cross
without extraordinary delay, and | there
fore recommend that you %instrunt your
commanding officers to place no obstruc-
ton in the way of persons who desire to
journey in good faith in a quiet, peaceful
and orderly manner up and along the
public highways, post or military roads
or established and customary cattle trails
through the Cherokee outlet, in going
forward to the tract of land to be opened
for settlement. Care should be taken to
have the Indians understand that by this
passage there is no disposition to appro-
pirate their lands; and that it will be con.
tinued no longer than absolutely neces-
sary. After the first immigration to the
Oklahoma country Is over, military forces
should then scout the Cherokee outlet
and require all persons unlawfully there
to move on, either back to the United
States or over into the Oklahoma lands"
The secretary in another part of the
letter says he deems settlers are entitled
toas much consideration as has been given
to cattlemen and Others heretofore, who
have been permitted to travel through
this outlet. 1t is urged upon the secre-
tary among other reasons for granting
this permit that the settlers coming
through the Chickasaw and other Indian
lands are gathering on the immediate
borders of the Oklahoma tract without
obstruction, thus putting those in Kansas,
who must pass the Cherokee outlet, at a
disadvantage. No movement will be al
lowed under this permit until full author
ity and instructions shall have been re.
ceived by the military having charge of
the matter. The recommendations of
Secretary Noble were laid before the
president by Secretary Proctor. and after
consideration an order bearing pom
the subject was sent from the war de
partment this afternoon to army officers
! in charge on the border of the Indian
Territory, presumably to carry into prac-
teal effect Secretary Mobiles recommen-
dation. Authoritative information on
this point is, however, withheld.

against the further issue of stock. 1t is
said Malone and Senator Jones dropped
$4,000 each and Don Cameron s12,O 00
