THE RED Man YIELDS
Half the Colville Indian Reser-
walton to Be Sold.
MILLION AND A HALF ACRES.
Fine Farming and Mineral Tracts to Be
Opened to Ci,ilixation-Moses and
Chief Joseph Sign Agreement.

SPOKANE, May 25.-fSpecial. THE COM
missioners appointed by the act of congress
to negotiate with the various tribes of In
dams now occupying the great Colville
reservation north of this city have re-
turned TO Spokane, and after
month of negotiations their efforts
have resulted in an agreement with
the Indians by which 10000 acres. or
a little more than one-half of the reserva-
tion. are 10 be sold to the government for
81 per acre and thrown open TO settlement.
The commissioners are Hon. Mark A.
Fullerton. of Washington; James F.
PAYNE. of North Carolina, and w. III.
Dufur, of Oregon. The commissioners
went to the agency at Fort Spokane about
a month ago, from which point runners
were sent out TO gather in the Indians
at the mouth of the Nespelim
river. on the Columbia, seventy-ive miles
below Fort Spokane. The council was
commenced on May 9, with the Column
bias, Neg Perces, 0kanogans and San
Puells fully represented. The Colvilles
and Lakes were thinly represented. at
first there was much opposition among
the Indians.
Moses was indifferent, and Joseph said
that he did not feel that he had right to
pass upon a question of that kind, be-
cause he and his people had been placed
on the reservation more as prisoners and
exiles than independent owners of
land. After a conference, lasting two
days, the Indians began to sign. An
tome, chief of the Okanagans,
came first. and was followed by
his people. Then came Moses and his peo-
pie ard then Joseph and the Nez Perces.
The San Puells were bitterly opposed to
the sale. and not one of them signed. The
commissioners then went to Marcus,
where the Lakes and Colvilles signed. Al
together 500 adult males signed, 200
more than the required majority. Under
the treaty every Indian man, woman and
child has right TO select eighty acres in
severalty. The treaty shall go into effect
Immediately upon its approval by con-
gress. The land coded comprises farming,
grazing and mineral land.

CINCINNATI. O., May 2S-The SEVENTH
seventh anniversary OF the Baptist Mis-
sionary Union was observed today. The
president. in his address, made a strong
appeal for more earnestness in sending the
Gospel 10 the pagan world. The commit

series of resolutions. providing, among
other things, that the union observe q

in October, 1891; that 100 more mission
aries be sent out, and that 81 ,0o0, 900 be

progress for the present year showed
81. 0oo, 900 raised, and upwards Of IS 900 con-
verts were baptized. The missionary
church now numbers 1882. The COM
nittee on obituaries made an elaborate re-
port on notable people at home and
abroad. It was adopted.
In the afternoon session DR.. Bradford
reported from the committee on the
famous Taluga mission. Nearly 5000 hap
tized Taluga Christians are in that field.
hut the converts are widely scattered.
More missionaries and $50, 900 for this field
are asked.
Rev. DR.. Mabie, secretary Of the union.
spoke on his missionary tour around the
world. from which he has just returned.
The city Of Toxic. he said, has $500 stu.
dents. Japan is intellectually awake.
Such is Western enterprise in the Eastern
cities that 400 English merchants can meet
any day in Yokohama. China shows
great commercial enterprise. Bombay has
the most palatial railway station on the
planet. Calcutta is an immense port of
commerce. America is asleep as 10 the
condition of the Eastern world. Mighty
forces are at work there, heather and
Christian, and Japan is only eleven DAYS
from our Pacific coast. The time has
passed to merely pity or patronixe the
mighty nations Of the East. The work in
Japan, intellectually aud religioasly, is re-
nsrssble. China. said the speaker, is the
battle center. Medical missions are no.

Jewels Which Are BECOMING.

A woman who has red face will not
wear emeralds, says the Contemporary
Review, even if all arbitrary man milli-
ner sends her home a dress emeralds
will embellish.
A woman with poor complexion
does not improve it by pearls. These
lovely and innocuouS ornaments really
derive their chief lustre from trans
parent skin, as they depend largely on
reflected lights. The iridescent colors
on pearls attract notice to the whiteness
of a white ground, but on all ill-colored
ground they are decidedly vindictive.
A woman whose face, however beau
tiful, takes verdatres tints in the
shadows should avoid rubies, especially
pink ones, and roseate to topazes. a
face may have these greenish tlnts
without damage to beauty, remember.
/ am not selecting all the most unfortu-
nate women can think of to threaten
and warn.
Every face has a great deal of gre n
in it, as portrait painter will tell yoe
Glotto, who painted the loveliest angel.
conceivable, and all his pupils made the
shadows on girls faces startlingly
green, and the eyes green, too, some
times. and vet we receive the impress
ion of exquisite delicacy and.brilliancy.
Still red is the Complementary of green,
if the dress should be OF pink, and no
help for ii, the jewels nearest the face
ought to counteract it.

LIGHTING LONDON STREETS
First Candles, Then Oil, Now Gas
and Electricity illuminate.

First Candles, Then Oil, Now Gas
and Electricity illuminate.
New York Journal
Lighting the streets of large city in
olden times was a far different thing
from lighting the streets of the present
time. In 1861 the streets of London
were directed to be lighted with candles
or lanterns by every householder front
ing the main road from twilight to 9
O'Clock, the hour of retiring to bed.
In the last year of King Charles Il.'s
reign, one Edward Hening obtained the
right to light the streets with lanterns
placed over every tent door, from 6
o'clock on moonless evenings until mid
night, between October and April
During the reign of Queen Anne. in
July, 170S, Michael Coke introduced
globular glass lamps with oil burners.
instead of the former glimmering Ian
terms. In ZIG an act was passed which
enjOlned every householder to furnish
a light before his door from to IL
o'clock at night, except on evenings be-
tween the seventh night of each moon
and the third after it reached the full.
In few years company was formed
to light the street from o'clock until
midnight, each householder who paid
poor rates being required to contribute
for this purpose six shillings year.
Gaslght, at its introduction in the
beginning of the present century,
presented such novel spectacle to the
eyes of the foreign ambassadors that
they were vain enough to. imagine that
the brilliant lamps were part of gen.
eral illumination to celebrate their ar
rival.
Electricity is now taking the place of
gas, but the change is made far less
rapidly in London than even the cities
of comparatively small population in
this country.
