MUSIC WITH MEALS.

One Respect In Which Oklahoma Hotel
Keepers Are Up to Date.
The hotels of Oklahoma up to last fall
were few and far between. Having tried
several with little satisfaction, party
Of hungry ''tenderfeet" was directed by
commercial traveller to little place
on corner. The commercial man said
it did not look inviting, but it was clean.
That was an inducement the party had
not heard of In that section, and it
turned in for supper. The dining room
was one in which the family lived. A
folding bed stood in one corner. An old
time bureau was opposite. A box stove
was in the way, and about it were
several old fashioned rockers. A few
family pictures hung from the wall,
with the old. old motto, invoking the
blessing Of the powers celestial on the
household. The party asked for supper
and was told to be seated until the meal
was prepared. Two girls, delicate and
with much WEAKNESS in their faces,
spread the table. When the meal was
brought on, they simply said, Supper is
ready" and disappeared.
The party gathered about the meal,
and it was agreeably disappointing.
While it was being gdevoured-that is the
best word to use, even at this distance
from the table-the two girls came into
tho room, accompanied by their mother,
woman whose hair was white and
whose face was study. There must
have been a time when she was beauti-
full. They came in as if they had been
billed for the occasion They went to
one corner of the room, and then the
party discovered that there was one Of
those old time melodeons in an out of the
way place. The mother took her place
at the keys, and as the mournful melo-
dies responded to her touch the daugh-
ters sang, Nearer My God to Thee"
"Nellie Gray" and then "Lorena."
Think of "Lorena" on o melodeon in
Oklahoma! The party having finished
supper, one of them paid the bill, and
then the music ceased. 1t was ques-
tion which no one of that party was ever
able to agree upon, or they had not up
to last accounts. Was the music of that
night for the purpose of entertainment
or to forestall the possibility of dupli-
eating any of the orders?- Chicago

How Not to Exterminate tho Indians.

How NOT To lsxterminate the Inuians.
Let us not vigorously crowd the lndi-
ans to abandon tribal organization. If
this is done before they are ready for it,
they will surely lapse into degradation.
Let them remain in compact bodies on
reservations to help one another over The
change and do not compel them to com
mingle and compete with the white race
in struggle in which they must be hope
lessly doomed. Slowly by law and by
instruction teach them the value of our
property laws. Do not force citizenship
upon them, but let them sue for it. We
should hold ourselves ever ready to grant
1t, but let them first discover it's benefits.
If such policy is maintained for two
generations more, the problem will be
solved-the remnant of the Indians will
be saved and absorbed in modern en-
lightenment.-Major j. w. Powell in
Forum

MORTGAGES IN ARKANSAS.

The extra census bulletin of July
26, gives the following information
in regard to Arkansas and the mort
cages on her real estate:
''The real estate mortgage move
ment in Arkansas from 1880 to 1889
was on the whole progressive one,
beginning with an incurred debt OF
S2,738,12 and ending with and in
cured debt of So, ,423,747 in 1889.
This increase of s07.65 per cent in
the incurred debt turing the ten
years was greater tnan the increase
of population, which was 4O.5S per
cont.
"Upon separation of the debt in
to that which incumbercd are tracts
and that which incumbered lots it
will be noticed that there was a
larger rate of increase in the debt
on lots than in that on acres. The
amount Of debt placed on lots in
1880 was 624,388, and there was
an increase to So, 138,05 in 1889,
although this amount was exceeded
by afew thousand dollars IN 1887.
In 1880, 2,206 lots were mortgaged;
in 1889, 1857, a number. greater
than that OF 1887. The debt incur
red on tracts rose from S2,113, ,740
in 1880 to SIS, ,285,690in 1889; and
the number OF acres mortgaged
in 1880 was $4,000, in 1889, L.
1888.
"During the 10 year period a
debt Of $52, 1856 was incurred,
represented by s0,l80 mortgages;
67.89 per cent of the debt was on
acre tracts and 32.11 per cent on
lots.
"The real estate mortgage debt
existing Jan. l, 1890, is $14,366,-
sos, of which $9,O51,117, or $500
per cent. is on acres and IS, ,315.478,
or 37.00 per cent is on lots. Only
2 of the Is counties of the state
have debt as large as $1,000, 900
and these are Pulaski, containing
Hitchcock, with an existing debt
Of s2,356,762, and Sebastian con-
tanning Ft. Smith, with debt of
$1,843,748.
"Arkansas has a per capita
mortgage indebtedness of $13, and
in this respect stands lower than
any other state that has been tabu-
lated, as appears in the following
comparative statement:
