Lower Brule Indians Leave Their
Reservation Without Permission,

The departure of number Of Lower
Brule Indians from their reservation near
Chamberlain. s, D. to the Rosebud reser-
walton without permission, as announced
by an Associated Press dispatch, was re-
ported In a telegram received today at the
Interior Department. Several Indian To-
lice are reported following them. and will
attempt to induce them to return at once
though 1t is legally impossible to force
that action. No trouble Is feared by the
movement of the Brules. as it is looked
upon at the Indian bureau as one of their
periodical trips off the reservation. Should
the effort for immediate return be unsuc-
cessfuf 1t is questioned whether the In
dams would remain away more than a few
days. This is due to consequent forfei-
ture Of their rations which could not be
furnished them where they have gone as
they are there held to be treSpassers. The
Lower Brules have frequently left the
reservation for the Rosebud agency, about
twenty-five miles away, and other lower
agencies. but seldom have remained more
than a week or so. They are known at
the bureau as very disaffected people
usually ready to follow any bad example.

Mr. Hills Declarations.
Mr. Hill, who desired to speak on the
amendment, but who was cut of by Mr..
Harris motion. Immediately reorfered the
amendment reducing the dividends exempt
to 5000. He did not support the amend
ment, he said, out Of any claim of Justice
to corporal tions. He cared nothing about
corporations, but he protested against dis
examination against corporation invest
ments, because IL was right and Just to
individuals.
Il intend to stand by my party" said Mr..
Hill appealingly. But II this bill is passed

Mr. Higgins Del) supported Mr.. Hnrs
amendment. The exemption Of $1,000 In the

1t was aimed at the rich. Yet here In the
same breath 1t was proposed to put the
same tax on corporations. thereby catch

their dividends were $40 or $1,000 Ii was
absurd. He attributed this Injustice to in

had abused their corporate privileges a
deadly blow might be struck at small cor

whose incomes came within the exemption

modified his former amendment so as TO re-
duce the exemption to sl.0O.
Mr.. Dolph. at this point. took occasion to
submit some general remarks against the
income tax. The revenues sought to be
raised from an income tax should be raised

Mr.. Allison then said that all attempts to
eliminate the injustice to small stock hold

Reforms In Eating.

Major Handy in New York Mail and Express
Looking over the 1900 menus which con-
sti.ute an imperfect record Of notable din
ners in which have had the honor of par
ticipating in my humble way. am very
much impressed with the simplicity Of the
dinners of today compared with those
of fifteen or twenty years ago.
There Is much room for Improvement
yet, and it is very hard to get the chefs
to second your efforts to reduce the
number of dishes and to touch the wine
list lightly. but on the whole the tendency
is in the right direction. The last strong
hold of the cid fashion Is the dinner of
many covers, with carte blanche TO the
purveyor Even here, however, improve
ment is to be noted, except in the matter
of multiplicity of wines.

ners of style, If not of state, given in this

chat, and was just verging toward the senti-

taken possession of one of her soft little
hands on the plea of saying goodbye, and

my fair hostess exclaimed:
ON, Mr.. Biggs, what Is the matter with
your clothes? Do look at the pink and
white streams that are falling on your

not. The result was that that wretched
hokey- -pokey actually prevented me from
offering my hand to Miss Tompkins, and

whole, 1 think l feel rather friendly to-
ward him, for had it not been for his de-
testable wares l firmly believe that should

Seeking Capital.

From the Detroit Free Press.
The drummer was going over q jerk
water railroad In the south to a little
town where he had a customer. 1t was
rough riding, and at one extra Jar and
scrape he turned to a man in the seat
behind him.
"Is it always like this?" he inquired.
Mighty near it," was the reply.
Does it ever go off the track?'
"It used to, and I'm hoping 1t will again.
''Thunderation, mani" exclaimed the
drummer, what do you mean?"
mo harm to you, l hope"
''Well, you don't talk like II. I'm sure
don't want any wrecks"
"I could stand a fair-sized one"
The drummer couldn't understand his
fellow-traveler, and asked for explana-
tions.
well, it's this way" said the man.
Last year l got busted up in one about
q mile from here, and 1 had an accident
policy that paid me S25 a week for six
months. Then l sued the company for
1000 and got $4,000. That set me up in
business, and done so well that l spread
out till about a month ago i felt like

a trip every day for the last three weeks

- Mr.. Hill has ccme to town since last

appearance in Washington. In point of
fact, Mr.. Hill would have some difficulty
In performing this feat, for ne enjoys the
peculiar distinction of being one of the
baldest men in the Senate. Then, too he
is most irlperturbable. He is noted for
his coldness, his well preserved calm and
his strictly regulated life. 1t may not be
generally known that Hill is probably the
most temperate man in the Senate. He
never drinks any form OF alcoholic or malt
