The Evfctcd Tenants utli,

LONDON. August 1T. w. Russell, the
liberal unionist NJ. p. for South Tyrone, in
an article in today's Pail Mall Gazette con-
corning the future Of the evicted tenants
bill. urges the adoption of an amendment
making the reinstatement of the evicted
ter ants voluntary Instead OF compulsory.
The change in the bill, he thinks. would
place the house of lords in a position to
pass 1t.
The liberal unionist leaders considered Mr..
Rrssells proposal at a special meeting held
today under the craftsmanship of the Duke
of Devonshre.
Sir William Harcourt, in the house of
commons today, replying to a question put
by Samuel Woods, a labor representa- tive
and one of the members for Lancashire
said that he hoped the government would
be able in 1895 to introduce bill providing
for the payment Of members of parliament.
The Hon. VIM. ST. John Fremantle, con-
sentative member for the Guildeford di-
vision of Surrey. moved the rejection of the
eviCted tenants bill.

therefore disqualified. The Carina led. fol-

The weather was brilliant. Everybody
interested in yachting seemed to be here
today. for the visit of the Vigilant has
aroused an interest III yachting never be-
fore manifested, even at these English
headquarters of the most aristocratic
aquatic tournaments.
OF course there is disappointment at the
disqualification Of the Britannia at the
start: but there is more disappointment at
the fact that the Vigilant, not being a
member of the Royal Yacht squadron, Is
Unable to compete for the queens cup.

THE MURPHY FAMILY.
A Report Against Their Claim to Al
lOtment nH Indiana.


lOtment nS Indians.
The long contest waged by the Murphy
family 10 secure legal status as members of
the Sac and Fox tribe of Missouri Indians
has probably received its final veto in a
report made by Representative Curtis of
Kansas, from the committee on Indian af-
fairs, against the bill Murphy is not an
Indian name, but the Murphys in question
have been long affiliated with the Indians,
and claim, through their ancestors. to have
acquired strain of Indian blood. which
would entitle them 10 allotments of the par
ticulaIly fertile and well-mprOved lands
which the tribe controls I'm Nebraska and
Kansas. For several years the government
in various branches has had under con-
sideration the wrongs Of the Sac and Fox
Murphys. In the first instance. the Indians
overluled the claim Of kinship, whereupon
the Murphys appealed to the commissions r
of Indian affairs. who sustained the decision
of the tribe. holding the family to be aliens
Then the case went to the Secretary of .he
Interior on appeal, and he decided adversely
to the kinship claim. his decision being bar
ticularly valuable because 1t sustains the
interesting principle that in contentious of
this nature it is the prerogatives of the
tribes to decide who are their members
These facts are set forth i'm Mr.. Curtis re-
port, which will avail to keep the Murphy
family without the tribe.

A CREMATION ROCK.

In the Smithsonian Institution,
Washington, there is a large bowlder
of almost solid copper which, if il
could talk, would tell many dark tale
Of supersdtiOus rites and sacrifices
This bowlder came from the upper
peninsula Of Michigan, about twenty
miles from Lake Superior. The In
dians in that locality held it in great
veneraton and were accustomed 70
offer up human sacrifices on it Ac-
cording to their tradition it ha, le'h
sent to their forefathers by the Great
Spirit as a token of his favor They
asserted that it sometimes spoke D
them with a voice Of thunder demand
ing sacrifices. A victim. usually
prisoner Of war from some other
tribe, was then bound fast to the rocA
and speared OF shot to death with ar
rows after which a fire was built upon
the bowlder and the body burned
