on the tan bark who can initiate that pecu-
liar graceful heel and toe style that made
O'Leary the fairest heel and toe walker OF
his day.
George D. Noremac, or to call him by his
right name Cameron, is a plucky, stocky
little Scotchman who may be depended
upon to stay on the track until thew walk Is
over and to make the man just ahead of him
keep going. He is not as a rule a first prize
winner, but he usually wins some prlZe,and
is never the last in the hunt.
John Hughes the Lepper, is of course III
the race. and he is the most deceiving man
of them all. You can never tell what, in
his obstinacy, he may do. He bears pain
like a stole. He will have his own way at
do as the Irishman did with the pig he was
driving to Limerick. He persuaded him he
was going the other way. When you bet on
Hughes, he loses; when you bet against him,
he wins. And there he is for you. His
rheumatism should ordinarily keep him
from going to the front.
George Cartwright is a man with several
records. He classes with Rowell and Lit
tlewood. Like all the English walkers and
runners he goes about running in a match
in a purely matter OF fact, basinesslike
way. He obeys his trainers orders, runs &C.
cording to a schedule made out in advance,
and barring an accidental breakdown that
can never be guarded against in a walking
match, is in at the end with the winners.
Then there are three or more who have
followed the tan bark track for years and
have made a fair living thereby. They en-
ter in every walking match. They never
win first prizes and never expect to-. But
they always win something. They treae
the track stolidly when the f1eeter walker,
are asleep. If you we're to see them, 81,
on the fourth day of a race, you would
stand and wait to see them fall to pieces
But they don't. They are in at the finish

if possible, and winning the capital prize OF
5000. The prizes indicate that this will
not be the end of walking matches in Amer
lea, but will be the beginning of a series of
great international contests. An emblem.
in the form of a gold or silver belt, studded
with diamonds or some other design, val
ued at about $1,000, will be ready for pre-
sentation to the winner, with the under
standing that he shall not compete in the
next race, but if the record IS beaten he
shall give it up to the coming man.
1t will be seen that so far as the walkers
are concerned, they have no risk, whatever,
in this match. They know to a penny what
they will get if they win. In other matches
this was a matter of speculation, since they
raced for the gate receipts principally. In
this race they run for the stipulated prizes
and the money has been deposited in the
hands of Arthur T. Lumley, editor of the
Illustrated News, of which John L.. Salli-
van was an editor before he became an
actor. Lumley is now Richard X. Fox's
chief rival in New York city and is cheek
by iowl with all that throng of sporting
men who followed the banner of Sullivan
' hen he quarreled with Fox.
As may be understood, the name in
which the prizes were offered led to a null
titude of entries of all sorts and condi-
tions of men, some Of whom the LORD
never made to be runners. There is scarce

TheGhost will not walk that fast to be
sure, but he honestly believes that he will.
OF course there are men in the list of en-
tries who can be depended on to make big
records. These are old seasoned hands-or
perhaps it would be better to say feet-at
the business. Some of them have been
walking in matches for more than a dozen
years.
There is James Albert, who figured in
probably a hundred matches before he won
one in Madison Square garden. You want
connection with the Albert who is manag-
ing the race. Albert, the walker, is a clean
built dapper fellow with none of the bad
habits that pugilists and walkers usually
have. He will be attended by his wife, will
run according to a schedule, n barring
accidents is a bad man to bet against.

The house concurrent resolution, calling

AS the house was kind enough on the
previous day to read a big batch of senate
bills, the senate took up house bills under
suspension of the rules.
The house concurrent resolution author
iZing the trustees of the insane asylum at

he thought it was a reflection on the last
state administration to thus instruct the
asylum trustees to perform their duties.
The resolution was cOncurred in.
Mr.. ARNOLD presided over the senate
for the first time. Jud LaMoure tried to
rattle him, but MIR. Arnold's experience as

would not be ratified. The way MIR. Ar

THE CHICKAsAw COMPLAINTs.
what . Careful Investigation Has Dcvel
oped on the Subject

what . Careful Investigation Has Devel-
oped on the Subject
The representatives of the Chickasaw nation
in Indian territory have been clamorous for
some time past that the general government
should drive from their territory intruders
whom, it was alleged, have settled on the lands
of the nation without an invitation. Finally
the Secretary of the Interior decided to comply
with this request. and last January the Indian
Office took the matter up. Instructions were
issued to the agents to expel all residing in the
territory who had no legal right to remain
there. The agent carried out his orders, but
found after searching territory of 400 square
miles with fne-tooth comb that there were
only nine persons out of the entire population
who were not entitled to reside in the territory.
The legal status of residents based upon
the Chickasaw laws, which enable persons to
acquire residence in the territory when they
have permit. The practice has been very
general among the Chickasaws to lease their
lands to outsiders who would pay a
certain rental. They were required also to
pay a small fee and then a permit
was issued.to them. The agent, of course
recognized such permits as emitting the holder
to remain in the territory. The governor Of
the Chickasaws, Gov. Byrd, however, objected
10 the basis which determined the rights of
individuals to "a residence in the Chickasaw
country.and wrote a long letter to Indian Com
missioner Morgan, taking exception to the rules
furnished by the agent for his own guidance.
The commissioner, after careful con-
sIderation, approves substantially of the
rules of the agent and has authorized
him either to proceed under these rules or to
suspend operations, according to his best judg
ment 1t is probable that this will be the end
of the campaign started to clear the intruders
out of the Chickasawycountry. The real diff
Guilty seems to lie in the form of the Chickasaw
laws relating to permits and in the looseness
with which they are enforced by the Chickasaw
officials. The Chickasaw government is unable
to collect taxes from number of residents,
and in the list of 5000 names of alleged in
truders furnished to the Indian office by the
Chickasaws these non-taxpayers are included.
