They Must Lose the Revenue Now Re
ceived from Cattle Barons.
WASHINGTON CITY, May l3. - Several
members of the Ponca tribe of Indians in
the Indian territory had brief interview
with Secretary Noble yesterday. They
came here without asking permission of
the department, to urge the secretary not
to insist upon enforcing the recent order
directing the cattlemen to remove their
herds from the territory on or before the
1st Of October next. The Indians based
their plea upon the loss Of revenue which
they would suffer when their lands were
no longer leased for grazing purposes.
The Cattle Men Must Go.
The secretary, however, gave them no
comfort. On the contrary he vigorously
denounced the occupation OF the lands by
outsiders as without the sanction Of the
law and unjust to the farmers Of the coun-
try, who were obliged TO compete with IN
taxed cattle grazed on untaxed lands. He
ordered the Indians TO return at once to
their homes, and told them that the policy
OF the government in regard to the occu-
patton by cattle men of Indian land would
be rigidly carried out.

MEDDLERS.

EDITOR lNTELLIaRNCER: Who
arc meddlers? Those who are
always meddliDg with other peoples
affairs-whO are always talking about
other peoples ways and dress and
often ridiculing them--who are always
giving advice whether It should be
gwen or not. Has any one any right
to ridicule another because their tastes
differ. Why should we care II other
people do not dress Just to suit us, or
do not work just to suit us? They
probably know what suits them best
What does il matter to us? Can we
make another's burden any lighter by
meddling? Now the end of all nv
queries simply stated would be this !:
Is 1t anybody's business what another's
business is5 Do not people who mind
their own affairs and let other people
do the same have many more friends
We all know that meddlers are q gen .
eral nuisance. Nothing can be done 10
suit them but they want 1t some other
way whether II makes il any better for
them o. not. II they have things done
to suit themselves It is all well enough.
but if other people wish to have their
"say -so.' il is all wrong. But the
worst OF 1t is that they never seem 10
know they are meddling. Some peo.
pie call these neddlers busy bodies-a
very appropriate name for them for
they are always busy at something
II they are not busy with their own
affairs they are busy with the affairs
OF some one else. May II not be best 10
try and make this life as pleasant and
cheerful as we can, helping others b,
encouraging words ard though we
can not always see alike yet we can at
least ALLOW others to do as they think
best, thereby doing wise thing. Let
us learn to mind our own business.

THEY LIVE LONG IN OHILI.
lFrou the sau FrancIsco Aita.l

From the ssu Francisco Aita.l
III 10 customary 70 say that when q
man survives three score years and ten
he is living on borrowed time. Some
men al seventy. FIVE consider themselves
very youthful, and instances are not
uncommon oi hale and vigorous men
who lack less than decade of touching
par. They had an old Indian from
Montery at the state board of trade
not long since, who set up claim of
being 100 wears Of age. He might
have been younger-perhaps older
but at any rate he was tip top sdver-
'isemeut for the "glorious climate,n
although his complexion was a trifis
off color aud his skin looked like the
tanned hide OF an alligator.
II 10 matter OF comment, almost In
vsriably, by travellers in the South
American countries, that IN every set
tlement Of importance there are usually
several very aged persons who are at
least 100 years old. and often more.
The census of Chilli, taken Ia 1885, fur
nishes some interesting statistics rela.
tive TO the longevity of the human race.
In the twenty-three provinces of Chill
there were found to be in excess of iO1
years OF age 2ll men aud 273 women.
One man, Rafael Munoz, OF Colchagua,
was returned as l60 years OF age.
There was one woman 1873 years old;
l35 years. one man, two women; 1872
years, one man; l30 years, one man;
l27 years, one woman: 1875 years, three
men, four women; lsS years, one man;
l22 years, two women; 121 years, two
women; l20 years, eight men, tw euty
women; ll9 years, two women; llS
years, two men, five women; III
years, one woman; 1l6 years, three
men, two women; 115 years, thirteen
men. twelve women; ia years, one
man, four women; ll3 years, three
men, five women; l12 years, six men,
eight women; Ill yesrs, six men, I've
women; ITO years, thirty EIGHT men,
ffty-three women; l09 years, five men,

Teen women; l07 years, five men, three

women; los years, thirty two men,

men, fifteen women; 1903 wears, fifteen
men, twenty-five women; l02 years,
nineteen men, twenty.two women;
l0l years, nineteen men, twenty
women,
1t would appear from the foregoing
that the women Of Chill are not averse
to giving their true ages, or else some
OF them must be as old as She. Ifa
woman In the United States acknowl-
edged that che had passed her lSSth
birthday, II would be fair Inference
to set her true age down at not less
than 250 summers.
