swINpLlNo SCHEMES

OF Psrmit Collectors in tho ChicIsasaw
Nation who Have Defrnudcd the Gov
ernment-Fictitious Names Enrolled as
Intruders.
WASHINGTON, June 30.-The commits
sioner of Indian affairs yesterday morn
ing received q telegram from Agent
Bennett at Paul's Valley, I. T., dated
Sunday, in which he says that after
thorough investigation, with the assist
ance of one hundred Chickasaw Indian
scouts, covering territory of fifty
miles, he found only nine intruders in
the Chickasaw nation, six of whom
were given ten days to gather their cat
tie and leave, one brush hiding and the
the other two were placed in charge OF
the Chickasaw militia with orders to
remove to Oklahoma. Instead of doing
this, however, the agent says that the
captain of the militia hired one as cook
and the other as teamster.
In this section the Chickasaw author
tiles asserted that there were three hun
dred families of the intruders. The
agent says that many names enrolled
as intruders are fictitious, many others
have permits to live in the nation for
years, while others are old, decreplt
Mexican war veterans who live entirely
upon their pensions, of whom no per-
init has ever been demanded.
The agent says that facts have been
grossly misrepresented by the Chicka-
saw authorities, who issued hundreds
of permits which were not reported to
the national authorities, which were
paid in good faith and are now held by
non-citizens, listed as intruders, and
who also hold permits for each year OF
their previous residence in the Chicka'
saw nation.
The movement has thus far resulted
In unmasking the swindling schemes ot
permit collectors, who, he says, are flu
gitives from justice. With few excep'
tions those in the nation are peaceful,
law-abiding citizens having the consent
of the national authorities to remain

"You must study into it."

SALADS FOR APPETIzERs.
How to Concoct Russian or Swedish
Salad.

How to Concoct n Russian or Swedish
Salad.
@ Nothing is better for an appetizer
than nice, fresh, cold salad, unless it
be two nice, fresh, cold salads But to
make up delicious entity, everything
must be perfection. The salad plants
must be clean and dry, the oil direct
from Lucco, and the vinegar the purest
that can be brought forth from clean
apples and new cider press.
If one is bit dainty, rather critical,
almost exacting, and feels the need of
a stomach tickler, Russian salad is
the thing par excellence to accomplish
this end. Mix for this tonic dish, equal
quantities of chopped beet-root, boiled,
and celery; add dash of scraped horse
radish. and then pour over-not may
onnaise this time-but a mixture of oil,
vinegar pepper and salt.
A Swedish salad is more com plicated,
and is a good thing to eat when you
have already got good appetite and
want big dish of something. This is
Ghe way to get it up: Chop up nearly
the same quantities of cold potatoes
and boiled beets; put on couple Of
teaspoons of the water in which the
beets were boiled; add two picked her
rings, minced, raw apple, a picked
cucumber and an onion. Cover the
whole business with sweet cream, and
when you feel just like eating, pitch in
and hope for the best.-Boston Herald

what's to be done, and / am ready"
A gentleman, writing from Madi-
son, Wisconsin, pays his respects to
the gallant (?) General in a way that
will not be relished by this "tramping
out" officer.
"Gen. Crawford received as much
pay in one year as the soldier he would
tramp out kill at the muzzle of the
cannon, who carried his musket and
often 100 rounds, his knapsack and
rations, would in q years.
"This great General had more style
while a division commander than
King William at the head of the
Prussian army; while to enter his tent
was more trouble than to enter the
harem of the Sultan of Turkey.
"The great query is, why the Doc
tor has not appeared at the National
Encampment of the g. A. r., and
blown from the cannon's mouth the
many thousands who resolved for the
pension system? Or why he did not
appear before the Invalid Pension
Committee of seth and 51st Congresses
take a seat, and tramp it out like the
English did the cattle plague? On
why did he not take a seat in the Ma
tional Democratic and Republican
conventions and tell those delegates
who resolved, we are in favor of lib
eral PENSIONS that he would tramp
it out as the English did the
mutiny and cattle plague? Why did
he not attend the Ohio, Iowa, and
Nebraska conventions this summer
and tell the delegates he was going tc
blow the pensioners from this mum
dane sphere as the English did the
mutineeTs?
"This great man of the closing de.
cade of the 10Th century, who would
tramp OUT pensioners receiving from
50 to$24, name appears on the Army
Register, page $50, as Colonel, re.
tired as a Brigadier-General, receiving
