Bus Accident.

While an omnibus was coming
down Nuuanu street opposite the
Eagle House yesterday morning,
one of the mules stumbled and fell.
The bus was travelling rather rap
idly down grade. The driver, for
some reason, failed to put on the
brake, and the other mule becom-
ing frightened by the entangled
condition of its mate, started off at
a lively pace. Amid the shouts of
both driver and passengers the bus
rolled over the PROSTATE mule. The
animal was extricated none the
worse for the accident.

Bishop WaIden,s Sermon.

Bishop Walden preached a very
able sermon to a good audience at
the Y.M.C.A. last night from the text
''And the Lord added to the church
such as were being saved" The
bishop brought out the necessity of
all Christians belonging to some
religious organization and by shsr-
ing in the work, joy, sufferings aud
riumphs of the church, be thus
drawn nearer and become like the
suffering and triumphant Christ.

EDITOR CHIEFTAIN: In looking
over the issue of Dec. 5th, of your
paper | saw a communication from
the Indian agent to Chief Mayes
stating that the commissioner of In
dian affairs had notified that Office
that one NJ. L. Graziers' life had
been threatened by JEFF Muskrat,
Joe England and Lee Mills on ac-
count of his (Grazier) advocating
allotment and that unless satisfac-
tory assurance of Grazier being
protected was given that depart
ment the matter would be reported
to the United States court and the
parties put under a peace bond.
As | am the only Lee Mills (who
is a Cherokee) in this country |
am at a loss to know what kind of
"cock and bull" story it is that
Grazier, the Dawes commission
and the commissioner of Indian af-
fairs have trumped up. am not
acquainted with Grazier at all,
having never seen him but once
and that in last April, and there
was not a word passed between US,
and as to my threatening his life
or even ever mentioning his name
in any way is bare faced preveri-
cation of the deepest die, gotten up
most likely by Grazier and the
Dawes commission for the pur-
pose of moving their pegs once
more toward the heart of the Ind
ian country.
Now, Grazier, the next time you
see a bear in the bush. before you
narrate the fact be sure it is bear,
and please don't get my name
mixed up with your troubles any
more, as | have enough real ones
of my own. Your brain is not
capable of handling a question as
big as allotment or you would not
have heard the Irish Banashee's
wall. Yours Truly,
LEE MIIIS

He Hated Women.

There are so many sham misogynists
about in this affectedly cynical age
that one can hardly help extending a
measure of admiration to the thorough
ness and consistency of a certain rich
old Viennese bachelor whose death
was announced the other day. In the
case of this highly eccentric old gen.
tlemen, horror and dread of our unfor-
tunate sex had become a positive
mania, for il is recorded of him that
whenever he went to a place of public
entertainment he took the precaution
of taking three seats, in the center of
which lle seated himself, leaving those
on each side vacant, so as to avoid all
risk of being obliged to sit by a womanl
He even carried his extraordinary craze
beyond the grave, by leaving instruc-
tions that no woman was to be buried
either to the right or left of him, even
il it should be necessary to purchase
three graves in order to insure the car
rying out of his strange bequest. One
cannot help suspecting that there must
have been some painful romance in his
life to account for this extraordinary
attitude of mind. Perhaps the most
curious thing in the whole strange
story is the statement that this agree
able old gentlemen left behind him a
large bundle of letters, which he had
grimly indorsed: Attempt by my fam
lily to put me under the yoke of matri-
mony" As he appears to have been a
very wealthy man, this alleged action
on the part of his relatives seems by no
means easy to oexplain-Lady

sition from any other on the market.
It is a scientific discovery which re-
suits in it being the most penetrating
liniment ever known. There are nu-

be recommended because they pay the
seller greater profit. Beware of these
and demand Ballard's snow liniment.

DANGEROUS BEAUTIES.
Bright, Glossy Foliage That Should Bo



Stunned
Out in the country, beyond the park
limits, fresh beauties in paint life at
tract us on ever hand. Two especially
beautiful plants with handsome foliage
are now claiming attention. They
must be avoided, however, because of
their poisonous qualities. These are
Rhus Toxicodendron, commonly known
as poison ivy, or poison oak, and Rhus
Venenata, poison dogwood or poison
sumac. The first is very common,
abounding in thiclets and by road
sides, clinging trees and running along
stone walls and fences. In size it
varies from a slender vine to a bushy,
branching shrub. 1t can be readily
distinguished from the common ivy by
its having its leaflets arranged in
threes intead of fves, and by their
smooth, glossy and bright green in
color In the fall these leaflets change
to the most brilliant yellow, orange
and scarlet bues and many cases of
poisoning occur from gathering and
pressing them for home decoration.
This plant does not affect everyone
Some can handle it with impunity,
while others will be poisoned by SIM
ply passing in its vicinity during these
foggy June mornings
Rhus Venenata, or poison sumac, is
far more dangerous, poisoning nearly
everyone who comes in contact with
it, and many who merely stand or pass
near it. This is a large, handsome
shrub, like the other sumacs, having
pinnate leaves, with seven to thirteen
leaflets, with separate borders. Like
the previous species, its leaves assume
in autumn a great variety of the most
brilliant hues.
Ivy poisoning manifests itself in a
minute, showing clustered itching
pimples, confined to the parts which
have been in contact with the plant
These soon become surrounded by
bright red and more or less swollen
patches. and the pimples turn to
minute vescicles with intense burning
and itching. If occurring on the face
there is often great swelling, the eyes
sometimes being completely closed by
1t. In severe cases it extends to vari-
becomes covered with crusts and scales
after few days 1t usually runs
course of five or six days, and heals
without scar.
Numerous remedies have been Landed
as specific in ivy poisoning. Milk,
limewater, salt and water, saleratus-
water and sweet oil are all recommend
ed and are at least harmless. One of the
best lotions consists of from two
drachms to half an ounce of sulphite
mot sulphate) of soda, dissolved in a
pint of water, and applied freely. For
almost any sort of plant poisoning
nothing can give better satisfaction
than two drachms each of tincture of
opium and solution of sugar of lead
in four ounces of water. If the surface
affected is large it is best to dilute this
one-half. Apply freely and allow the
liquid to dry end remain on the skim

HEARTY HOSPITALITY.
1t Is the Plain, transformations Kind That
Has No Shams-

1t Is the Plain. Unostentatious Kind That
Has No shams-
The essential elements of hospital
ity seem to be:
A sound, simple, everyday life, with
no shams to hide and no pretenses to
keep up.
That which makes hospitality bur-
den and not delight is the foolish
vanity which wishes to appear TO share
something better than it really has to
divide.
Living in wholesome, comfortable
style we are not contented to offer our
guests the entertainment we find
ample, but weary ourselves and lose
all the real delight of companionship
in assuming for the time a manner of
living beyond our easy attainment.
We are not thinking of the social ele-
ment, but of the mere externals of liv-
ing, and derange the whole household
machinery by trying to keep in mo-
tion half a dozen new wheels
If we would make our everyday life
more simple, and strip it of all pre-
tense, it would leave us ample leisure
to let our hearts expand toward 9TH
ers, and then, II we would pay our
friends the usual compliment of treat
ing them as if they were attracted to
us-and not to our feasts and batteries
we might make our homes centers of
a beautiful hospitality that would be
both restful and blessed.
If ones life is frank and sincere SO
that there is nothing to conceal; if
gracious manners and gentle courtesies
are every day wear and not simply holi-
day garb; if bright talk and stimulat-
ing conversation rule the table instead
of gossip and criticism; if we are hon.
estly seeking to be rather than TO
seem, we shall not look with dread and
terror upon the advent of guests, or
exhaust ourselves in our attempts to
entertain them. m.-Chautauquan.

What to do With Our Insane!

One of the most urgent questions
that arise out Of the anomalous
conditions in the Indian Territory
is, what. is TO be done with our des-
titute insane? With a non citizen
population of more than 800, 900
people, it is but natural that a
number of destitute insane people
inhabit the territory. Nearly every
town and every community has
one or more subjects. They are
usually penniless and loathsome,
and are dependent upon individ-
ual charity. This is always poor
comfort. In instances the persons
are so loathsome and neglected
that they cannot get bedding for
money or charity, and have to lay
out during the cold winter nights,
which besides cruelty increases the
fire risk about the town. About a
year ago a fire in Muskogee was
supposed to have been started by
one of these crazy subjects at
nlght. congress shoulu pass an
act this session for the relief of
this class. There is no insane
asylum now open to the insane OF
the Indian Territory. Let con-
gress enact that a person may be
arrested and tried for insanity by
the United States court, and if
found insane, be placed in an asy-
lum in one of the states to be pro-
vided by congress. Justice to the
people of the territory. as well as
justice and humanity to the SUBJ
jects, demand this. If the people
of the territory will take the mat
ter up and urge it upon congress it
is probable that it will be done -

Short Talks on Advertising.

Advertisements won't work mir
icles, wont sell ice in Greenland
nor snow shoes at the equator. An
advertisement will sell overcoats
in July if they are cheap enough,
but a sensible ad of sensible stuff
is always best.
Dull season advertising must be
considered in two ways, as adver-
tising and as insurance-insurance
of business-insurance against loss
of trade.
Such insurance should be placed
on the same business principles
that dictate the placing of fire and
life insurance. Pick out the
strongest companies--the best pa
pers.
Business MISUNDERSTANDING
is better than the other kinds.
They repay the losses caused by
misfortune. Advertising prevents
the misfortune.
1t may be possible to do adver-
tising from which you will never
see any results. 1t is certain that
you will never get results from the
advertising that you do not do.
If all the money that is wasted
in worthless media were concen-
trated in the best paper-a paper
like "THE CHIEFTAIN," it would
carry good advertisement straight
through the dull season.
Advertising finds a parallel in
farming. At some seasons the
harvest follows the planting very
quickly, at others the result is
slower.
Plant advertising seed in De.
cember and the crop comes at once.
Plant in July and it may be Sep
tember before the full, rich harvest
comes, but it will come. And il
you plant little garden sass
along with it, you'll get something
to eat right straight through July
and August too.
Don't try to sell heavy things
things involving great outlay,
Seek out the little catchy, useful
things. Get wedge of satistac.
tion started into the house with a
three-cent fan, and the big end Of
it will carry in some silk dresse:
later on.
Running expenses are much the
same whether you're dull or busy
Figure the cost of the advertising
against the gross profit of the in
creased business from week tC
week, and the operation will show
profit every time, provided the
advertisements are properly con.
sidered and written.

While no psnacea has ever been
found to control whooping cough,
a foreign physician, NJ Koroleff, is
reported as having found that in
halations of naphthaline are some
times of service in this very
troublesome malady. These in
halations can be obtained by the
evaporations of fifteen or twenty
grammes of naphthaline. In four
out of nine cases of whooping
cough inhalation four or five times
a day. and kept up for three days,
proved highly beneficial. The
coughing fit stopped on the third
day. A foreign medical cor
