 Col snyder, q member of the Cherokee Live Stock Association, says that the asso- ciatiou will obey the governments order to move if tue governm nt succeeds in buy ing the land Tho company would bs forced to dissove. He thinks, however, that the Indians will not care to sell at el a5 per acre to thu government when there are at least three cattle companies who are ready to pay nearly three times as much It is his opinion that Chief Mays was misquoted when he was repo rted as saying that ho would recommend the ac- coptanee of the government offer.
 Another member of the company said the loss to the cattlemeu would be enormous. The catte market was ready giutted and when the great numbers of cattle in the Strip were forced to sale. prices would de- ciina to such an extent as to paralyze the cattle industry throughout the whole coan- try

DAVITT AS AN ORATOR.
Tho impression He is Making Before tho
 Parnel Commission.

ParnelI Commission.
 LONDON. October 2a.-Mr. Michael Day itt resumed bis address before the Parnell Commission to-day. He referred to tho action of tho Chicago Convention as dis proving the assertion that the Clan na- Gael was actively allied with the League. Tho authors of the articles on "Parnellism and Crime which werc printed in the Lon don Times, he said, wiIlfully invented and garb ed quotations from American papers. II. admitted that the expressions of somo of the speakers at Chicago we're bitter against England But the Convention was held during the period when the League was under the ban of suppression, when number of prominent members of the Par nellte party were in prison and when force had crushed out the constitutional move men. Hence the speakers were laboring under great excitement The "Paracllism and Crime liars catschism distorted every thiaE relating to the movement of the Irish ia America He instanc,d as a baselcss lie tho statements that he met tho chiefs Of tho American assassination party while In tha United States and connected with them 10 form the Irish Federation, and that Mir. parucll assisted ia this scheme. Ho tpavitt had often rcpudated tho policy of revenge advocated by tho extremists ia America Mir Davitt a'so said that many erroneous reports were current respecting tho Clan na Gael. which organization, he sii, was not aa assassination society, nor any moro a secret society than was the Order of Frco Masoas in Great Britain.
 Mir Davitt dwe!t at length upon tho social conditions of the country and to economic causes, and not to his teaching or to the work of tho Land League. He stated tha, hc organized tho League with the ot'- ject of aholishlng iandordism This, ho held, was perfectly legal and constlta. tiouai ond to work for The means em- ploycd were constitutional. lie deni d that the Irish town meeting at which the League was started was org niked by taaians with an ulterior object Many of those present at the meeting were Fcatans, bat th,n they only acted as farmers and radical law reformers.
 In his speech Mir. Davitt is daily scoring points in favor of tho Parnellites and add ing to his already well establish reputa. ton as an eloquent and forclb.e orator

tance out of the village to do it. That
delicate consideration probably saved the
life of Il StrinesvilIe small boy. but it killed
Farmer Staufer's valuable young Jersey

play the bull was feeding in it's pasture,
which was near the spot chosen by the
band While the band was getting its
collective lip ready to compel tune from
its horns. the small boy referred to was
taking short cut through the pasture to
reach the band The bull took note OF
the small boys presence. and proceeded
at once to hasten his trip across the lot
The band had not seen the procession
moving through the meadow, although
the bull was mounting his displeasure
Justify as he ran. and the small boy was
lifting up his voice in audible and pene-
trating tones The h..ll was within three
jumps of the boy when the band had got
ready to play The band played. At the
first burst the bull stepped short, threw
up his head and smiled the air The In,
struments blared again The bull turned
and rushed wildly toward Tho stone wall
The band threw it's so,I once more inte
