INDIANS LOVE GAMBLING.
They Will Bet Big Sums, Even on tn,
Death of Friend.

They Will Bet Big Sums, Even on the
Death of Friend.
The gambling instinct among Indi-
ans seems rather to be increased than
otherwise by civilization, and more than
one Cherokee who drew at Tahlequah
recently for himself. his wife and his
children quite a large sum of money in
full discharge of his personal interest
in the Cherokee strip came near losing
every dollar of it before returning
home. One day when the distribution
was exceptionally heavy two very spec
ulatlve recipients were standing to-
gether near the post office. A boy was
seen coming along the street on Il
bucking pony. For so young Il boy ne
held his seat well, but it seemed ex-
ceeding probable to the on1ooiers that
before he got the pony home he would
either be thrown or would have TO get
off. The two Indians discussed the
proposition with much excitement and
finally one man bet the other the en-
tire government per capita that the
boy would be thrown before he got
past them.
The bet was accepted with vicious
eagerness, and as they watched the
antics of the pony as it whirled round,
bucked, sat down on its launches, and
did everything else that was ever
known to a trick horse, they almost
came to blows in the excitement of
their argument. Finally the horse,
despairing of any other means of get
ting rid of its rider, leaped in the air
and fell on its side, knocking half the
life out of the boy, and then rolling
completely over him. An alteration,
of course. followed as to which had
won the bet. The piucky boy hung OH
to the horn of his saddle, although APP
parently fatally injured. He neither
fell off nor got off, but was lifted off
the furious animal by half dozen men
who rushed quickly to the rescue. Eff
forts were made to quiet the two In
dians, and the suggestion that the het
be declared off was freely made. As
each man declined to pay the other,
this was the final outcome of the af-
fair; but the wagering of such COM
paratively large sum over such an in
significant event shows that specula-
tion will always be more or less pop
ular with the average Indian.--St.
Louis Globe-Democrat.

Korean Reforms.

When Japan declared war against
China. il was to enforce Korea's in
dependence of China, and to guaran-
tee the accomplishment of certain re-
forms" in the government of Korea.
What these reforms are. has not been
known until now, when q letter from
Seoul makes them public. They GER
tainly make queer reading to us, but
they evidently have been burning is
sues in the Orient. They are six in
number. and as follows:
First-That the Tai Now Rim 1.-THE
King of Korea and royal princes are
IN future to be in receipt of a full sal
airy. the former being the more import
ant, to receive 1850 per month.
Second-That widows can marry
again without losing caste. That
young men must not marry under -.
Ihlrd-Examination on the Chinese
system for government appointments
abolished.
Fourth-That men of due qualifica-
dons be allowed to hold secretary ships
and clerkships in the government de-
partments, which posts we're formerly
monopolized by the nobles.
Fifth-The Chinese period or title of
reign tsuch as the Meiji era in Japan J
abolished; also the use of the Chinese
calander
SiXth-Long hair to be abolished.
Two of them are part OF the eman-
cipation of Korea from the Chinese
yoke-the Chinese system of examina-
tions for government appointments,
and the use of the method of number
ing the years from the accession OF
the Chinese emperor. The women of
America will certainly sympathize
with the provision allowing widows to
remarry, and nobody, except he be a
football player, will object to the
abolition of long hair. The Japanese
wear short hair, it is to be re-
membered, while the Chinese adhere to
the queue. The provisions opening
public positions to others than the
mobiles is certainly a step in the di-
rection of the emancipation of the peo-
pie, while the granting of a stipulated
salary for members of the royal family,
in place of allowing them to take all
they can exact, is step in the path of
progress.
While Korea is to be independent,
there is no doubt she will be strongly
under Japanese influence. The Korean
king has gone to Tokyo to obtain a
loan of five million yen, and this in
sures the commercial dependence OF
the ''hermit kingom'' upon Japan,
while the latter's supremacy in polit-
ical influence is no less certain

Reward of Honesty.

Mr.. Chugwater, who was taking a
ride on street car, had just handed a
half dollar to the conductor. On count
ing the change given to him in return
he called out:
Conductor. you didn't keep out
your nickel. You've given me 80 cents
$50 have" replied the conductor,
counting it himself. l must have
dropped dime in my nickel pocket
by mistake. Thanks.
He took back the dime, put it into
its proper pocket, and Mr.. Chugwater
rode 20 his destination suffused with
the comfortable glow that comes with
the consciousness of having done a
manly, honorable, upright act.
And it was not until Mr.. Chugwatel
had got off the car that it dawned up
on him he had paid ten cents for his
ride.-Chicago Tribune.
