WORKING by MUSIC,
An Official Who Has n Piano in His
Office Building.

An OmcinI Who Has n Pinno in His
ONCE Building.
An innovation has been introduced in
this city regarding the government work.
shops.
While the bureau of American republics
is not strictly department of the govern
ment, yet in a general way it comes under
that head.
The innovation referred to has been in
troduced in the building Of the American
republics. at the corner of Pennsylvania
avenue and Jackson place, opposite La
fayette Park. The innovation Itself is in
the form Of a piano, and occasionally dur
ing the day visitors to the bureau are
astonished by hearing the strains of some
popular or classic air floating throughout
the house. 1t is n pleasant thing for the
clerks while at their work to be entertained
by piano solos, and their enjoyment is
rot shared by the employees of any other
department in Washington. Mr.. Edison, as
sistant to the director of the bureau, re-
sides in the house, together with the d.
rector himself. One of the rooms Is re-
served as dining room, and it is here that
the plano has been placed. The piano is
said to be the personal property Of Mr.
Edison. who is an accomplished musician,
and whose office Is in the adjoining room
1t may be that this innovation will be-
come so popular as to call forth copyists
IN other branches of the government
Many unsteady inclined employees of the
government might relish having a piano in
their office by which they might while away
the cares of office during moments when
business is dull. At any rate, the musical
innovation at the bureau of American re-
publies is being commented on by many
people.

MAKING HASTE SLOWLY.
The Dawes Commission Working Pa
ticntly on It's Task.


ticntly on It's Task.
Gen. Armstrong, enc of the members of
the Dawes commission, is spending a few
DAYS In Washington. He says that the
prospects now are that the commission will
be able to make deal with the company
looking to future legislation for the set
Element of the existing anomalous condi-
ton in the Indian country. Just at present
the elections in the various tribes are In
progress, and the commission decided that
it was we'll for its members to be absent
in order to prevent the lphaiEe being made
that they were there to Influence the voters
and secure legislatures in the different ma
tons who were favcraSiy Inclined to the
wishes of the commission. :, -'',.'=i Ii'-''
There are plenty of men in the Indian
country who are opposed to The commits
sion and are doing everything possible to
prevent an agreement being reached. IT
is expected that the legislatures Of the diff
erent nations will take some action this
fall looking TO an adjustment, through the
commission, of the various interests. The
Dawes commission will ask the legislatures
to appoint commissioners to negotiate and
submit propositions for form of terri
torfa1 government and disposition of the
lands. Many of the Indians are opposed to
taking allotmants and division of the lands
though the more progressive are aware
that they must do so sooner or later.
Some of the Indians are also Of the opin-
ion that unless they submit some salts
factory proposition to the Dawes commits
sion. or show some inclination to organize
better form of government. Congress
will ignore them and proceed to legislate
WITH the knowledge 1t already has on the
subject and without further consultation
with the various nations. The Choctaws
and Chickasaws have already evinced a
disposition to meet the commission, and
in the Cherokee nation petitions are
already being circulated asking the legisla-
Dawes commission with view to reaching
an agreement and submitting to Congress
some proposition for legislation for the ter
ritory.
Gen. Armstrong says the commission will,
of necessity. be compelled to move slowly
as the Indians will not be hurried into do
Ing anything, and are largely disposed to

LIKES TO RUN THINGS.
Judge kffEOre Perfectly COntenfea
With His NexY Dutien

Judge Constantine Buckley Eilgore, for
merly and better known to the residents of
the capital as Representative KiIgore, the
kicker on parliamentary proceedings of the
House of Representative, is in Washing
ton for few days, having come here from
Ardmore, I. r., where he is located In the
heart of the Chickasaw nation.
Judge Kilgore whel in the House rarely
acceded to the popular idea on the Question
of the way the affairs of that body should
be conducted, but since being transferred
to his new post of usefulness he has ex-
perienced great change of heart. If there
is one thing that Mr.. l<ilgore detests 1t is a
kicker-one who sets his opinion up against
the flow Of sentiment from established End
Official sources. To q Star reporter today
Judge kilgore explained this change Of
heart.
Il am most Supremacy contented in my
new duties" he said My duties are part
ly judicial and partly executive. There is
like the one l preside over. l like to run
things, and 1 run that court I make up
my mind about things and they have to go
that way. Now and then lawyer wants
to argue about the decisions, but tell him
that can do the deciding of the cases,
and when I have heard enough 1 decide
them. Argument is out Of place. Yes, I
like my duties down in the Indian territory.
1
The reporter suggested that there was a
slight impression during his incumbency Of
a seat in Congress he was inclined to ques-
ton everything in general and to argue
rulings on the floor of the House, even
though every other member, was satisfied
with the course matters were taking.
"Oh," replied Mr.. 'Kslgore, that was
another question. had right to argue in
the House, but you see.the mandates OF a
judge cannot be argued and that is the end
Of it. The only argument will hear is an
appeal for another trial.
Mr.. Kilgore thinks, too, that there is yet
hope for the Corbett-Fitzsimmons light to
come off in the United States, notwith-
standing the opposition that the fighters
are meeting at the hands of the Texas
authorities. There is no law in the Chick
asaw reservation against prize fighting, -
said Mr.. kilgore, land if the lighters come
down to Ardmore there is no reason that 1
know of why they should not light and give
a CORY exhibition, if they are inclined that
way -il

The Dfcker Was Too Long.

This ell-tale tale tells of how Washing

customer; also Of how the customer
wounded the sensitive feelings OF the
grocer, and of the circumstances which led
to this most unhappy estrangement. The
grocer though he never wore stovepfpe
hat. was In other essentials gentleman.
They met at the grocer's counter, and
this is the conversation that placed be-
tween them a great, yawning chasm:

WORK OF INDIAN SCHOLARS.
An Interesting Exhibit to be Sent to
the Atlanta Exposition.

An interesting EXHIBIT to He Sent to
the Atlanta Exposition.
Some months ago Indian Commissioner
Browning sent to the teachers and pupils
OF thirty or mere government Indian
schools in the United States an invitation
to send to him examples of their work for
exhibition in the government exhibit at
Atlanta. About half of the schools re-
sponded, and, under the supervision of Miss
Emily S. Cook, who has been for many
years private secretary to successive Indian
commissioners, these exhibits have been
arranged and classified in preparation for
shipment to Atlanta.
Recently there was sent a large collec-
ton of examples of workmanship from the
various Indian Industrial schools. This in
cluded a great variety of work in black
smithing. including chains. knives, tools of
all descriptions, clevfses, trace chains hoes
bush hooks. picks and similar articles.
There were also samples of work in car
pentry. shoemaking. harnessmaking, sew
ing. mending, weaving and braiding.
There Is now at the Office of the Indian
commissioner most interesting collection
of examples of scholarship from a number
Of Indian schools From the school at
Carson City, filled chiefly with Pan Utes
come some excellent specimens Of map
drawing and coloring, compositions, exer-
cises in grammar and syntaX and designing
in colored papers. In the latter class of
work, perhaps the best shown comes from
the school at Standing Rock, where the
pupils are almost exclusively Sioux. A
large album Is filled up with work of this
sort from Standing Rock and some Of 1t is
singularly beautiful In design and color.
The names which appear attached to these
exercises are also quite Interesting. Among
them will be noticed such as follow: Jos-
eph Eagleman, Nellie Holyhorse, Lucy One
feature. Edith SIowba1I, Katie Goodword.
Mary Bullhead, Joachim Harrychin. En-
ma Redfox, Joseph Woman.
Four Pima girls at the school at Phoenix,
Ariz., have sent quite large collection of
pressed flowers, arranged under glass.
These have kept heir original colors nicely,
end afford a most interesting feature Of the
exhibit. There are exhibits from the
schools at Fort Shaw, Fort Peck, Kearn's
Canon and various other schools, showing
the work of the Assina BONES, Cheyennes
Shoshones. Utes. Chippewas, Moquis, Pueb-
los, Apaches and various other tribes
Carlisle school Is very well represented
especially in a large frame containing the
portraits of considerable number of the
graduates of that school who are now oc-
cupying important and useful positions as
teachers and officials in the government
service. The exhibition, taken altogether
Is a most excellent one, representative of
the attachments of Indian youth in all
parts Of the United States, showing what
is possible to be done in their behalf, and
answering in an unmistakable way the old
prejudice against Indian education This
exhibit will be open to the public for in
spection during the office hours of next

Alleged Railway Mail Frauds Denied

The charge. that Superintendent Flint of
the eighth, or San Francisco, railway mail
division was implicated In fraudulent
weighing Of the mails on tie Pacific coast
seems to have involved quite number Of
employees in the service. AT the Post Of
flee Department it is said that the truth of
the charges is improbable. Superintendent
Flint, year ago, made an investigation
of the weighing of mails on a certain route
which led to a readJrstment in favor of the
government and 1T is believed the story
emanated from this source. Saturday the
department received a telegram from Col
yer. the postal clerk from whom some of
the statements were alleged to come, in
which he positively denies that he said
anything OF tine sort or anything at all
about the matter.

The Capital Traction Company's Capi-
falizn ton.
To the Editor of The Evening Star:

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
1t will certainly be fine thing for the
people Of Washington when they are able
to enjoy ride from the navy yard to
Chevy Chase lake for 1-6 cents. But, in cur
elation at the prospect, it would be as we'll
to remember for future reference the
100000 of water that will be represented
by the capitalization of the new corpora
ton. In the years to come We will see
passengers carried, In some localities, like
distances for cents, and fair profits made
by the carrier. But If this six millions of
water must also have interest paid upon it,
will this not be alleged as a sufficient rea-
son why the Capital Traction Company
cannot reduce its fares? Is the price to be
paid for the Washington and u georgetown
a matter that concerns only the owners
and the purchasers? Suppose, instead of
issuing twelve millions of stock, the issue
should be fifty millions? Would it then be
no concern Of the people? w. J. NJ.
