TAHLEQUAH, I. T., July 26.-Chief
Mays was found in his apartments this
afternoon, but refused to give his ideas
as to what action Will be taken upon the
offers of the Cherokee commission.
''My idea is that they will not consider
any proposition Whatever" he said.
81 have never received any instruc-
tions and do not know what they will
do or what they expect TO accomplish.
1 only know it is supposed they are COM
ing in regard to the sale OF the land. l
refuse to say whetherI am in favor of
selling or not, but everybody will know
in a few days 1 will only say that if we
want to sell we can get a good deal bet
ter price than l am told they will pay for
it. can secure So an acre or more. -
"Is there any foundation to the claim
of the Cheyennes and Arrapahoes to
owning 4 600 ZOO acres of the Cherokee
outlet"
"None whatever. do not think that
we will have any trouble at all in set
Ting that part of the question or in
regard to the CherokeGs having the
best title to the strip. l will say that
while such men as Congressman
Perkins viii uphold this idea, those
who are perfectly acquainted with Cher
okee affairs will not. I am personally
acquainted with Perkins and know him
to be professional crank on this sub
ject. Even the men who compose this
commission are not acquainted with the
present condition of the Cherokees, and
to my certain knowledge some of
them did not know the Cherokees have
a constitutional forp of government
based upon that of thu United States. In
conclusion, hope that the commission
ers may accomplish a good work, and
that they viii leave with the impression
upon their minds that the CheTokees are
a civilized people. -

to Race Trouble.
Special to the Gazette.
ATLANTA, TEX. July 26.-The hang
ing of the negro by a mob il the Cussetta
neighborhood as reported by your Belden
correspondent, has caused great excite
ment. Reports are current that two
negroes named Bird and Graham are
securing the country endeavOTiug 20 or
ganiZe a negro mob to murder four young
white men whom they accuse of the muir
der Of the negro. The whites are arm
ing themselves for the defense. Several
different parties of men were here yester-
day after guns and report the whole
country excited. The TUmOrs from there
are so conflicting that it is impossible to
get at the truth of the matter.
The general opinion is that the real
trouble is nothing in comparison with the
excitement, and the arming of the white
people viii bluff the negroes off if they
ever had any serious intention of seeking
revenge, which is doubted. There is no
telling what the excitement may lead to.
There are some hard citizens in that sec
ton, who would not hesitate to kill a
negro if they had anything like good
excuse.
Owing TO the isolation of the neighbour
hood it is impossible to know the true
status of the trouble, but it is not be-
lieved that any race war of consequence
Will result.

The Hard Feelings Between the Creeks and
Cherokees Grow More Bitter.
FORT GIBSON, I. T., July 26.-The
Cherokee commission was met here yes
terday by delegation of Creek Indians,
headed by Indian Agent Bennett, who
asked that the Creeks be heard at once
in reference to certain technical matters
concerning the sale of their remaining
land. The request was granted and Gen.
Fairchild has arranged to meet the
Greeks at MuscOgee to-day. The hard
feeling between the Creeks and CherO-
KEGS grows more bitter as the pending
negotiations come to q focus. The Cher
okees upbraid the Greeks for the OklahO-
ma deal, and their Indignation iu-
creases as the Creeks make further
preparation to sell. The Cherokees are
almost unit in their opposition to any
and all transactions by which their lands
are to be marketed. Chief Mayes dem
onstrated a firmness in refusing to call
the council that bids fair to handicap
the labors of the commission at their
outset He is reported to have
publicly stated to the commanding Off
GERS at Fort Gibson that lie would not
call an extra session under any ciTcum-
stances. Gen. Fairchild expressed de-
sire to confer with the chief at Table
qiIah as soon as possible, ostensibly with
the object of inducing him to call an eX-
ira sessions at once. During the delay
that must e11sue before the delegates as
semble the general says the commission
will go to the Cheyenne and Araphoe
agencies to consider their claims in the
Cherokee strip. The most important
facts that have occurred'to the commits
sion thus. far are the length to which
their Negotiations must necessarily eX-
tend and the hostility demonstrated by
the Cherokee authorities. It may be
several months before. preliminary ne
g0tiations can be opened. The commits

Wit or Beauty. Which -?

A correspondent says: Much has been
written and said about the rival claims Of
wit and beauty as factors in rendering
women attractive Tho great immediate
triumphs Of beauty may have been wrought
in moment, rs when the old men Of Troy
gazed admiringlv ON Helen and forgot her
sins; or when the duchess of Cleveland looked
from her coach door upon the bowling mob
of London, who attributed to her malign in
luence oil the burden of their taxes, and who
were so charmed by her beauty that their
howlings changed into Bless her handsome
facet But the continuous and permanent
power of personal charms implies not mere
regularity of form, but brillia.lcy and varied
fascination. One of the most brilliant writer's
Of this century, Heinrich Heine, has best
analysed the rival charms of wit and beauty
in his Confessions Women are dangerous
he says, but | must admit that beautiful
women nre not so dangerous as those whose
attractions are intellectual rather than ply
steal He continue by giving a sketch Of
Nine de Stael who is the stock instance Of
the power welded by the feminine intellect
without beauty.
at was Mime. de Stael who, when sitting
with the beautiful Nine. dc Recamier and
the celebrated Taliyrand tried to embarr2ss
him by asking him abruptly il the two ladies
fell into the water which he would save.
Madame replied the imperturbable diplo-
mat, you know how to swim, thus adroitly
complimGnting her universal accomplish
mcnts while maintaining his own allegiance
to the beauty. Ii is a curious fact that Mar
garet Fuller Ossoli, whose name has often
been linked with that of Nine. de Stael, had
this in common with her that her hands
were tho point where she came nearest to
beauty, and she was accused by many critics
OF displaying thom in public She also drew
from men perhaps more than did Nine de
Stael the homage of personal affection, and
it was hsr own theory that the strongest pas
sious recorded in history have usually been
inspired by plain women, which may be n
