Some Kickapoo Indians Win Not Give Up
 Their Lands for Settlement.

Some kickapoo Indians VIII Not Give Up Their Lands for Settlement.
 PERRY, Ok. Aug. 15-The Dawes com- mission made a partial settlement with the Kickapoo Indians last spring for an allotment and an annuity with the government for their lands, which lie in the southeastern part of Oklahoma Territory Of the 275 Kickapoos l75 favored the allot. ment and 100 did not. The commission reported in favor of opening the Kick. apoo country, and on the 23d day of May the Kickapoo lands, which are the finest in the Indian territory, were thrown open to settlement.
 But there were 100 Kickapoos who opposed the opening, and they are still of the same mind. The 100 Indians, who are known as the Richer Kicka- poos, declare that the Great Father has never ordered their land opened to set clement, and say the white men have taken it from them by force. These 100 dissatisfied Kickapoos have built village on a section of fine school land and declare they will not vacate. Gov. Renfrow, of the territory, has leased all of the school lands in the Kickapoo county, and in this leased land is the tract on which the village of the Richer Kickapoos is located.

the wrong bronco. Let me ask this young female a question. Young woman,' he says to Tucson Jennie, be you fully informed as to whose neck you're hanRin' to-?
 It's Dave's. ain't ito she says, lookin' all fearful in his face to make shore.
 "Enright an the rest of us don't say nothin', but jest looks at each other. Tut fushes up an looks pleased both at once, but jest the same he puts his arms around her like the dead game man he is.
 'Whatll you have. gents?' Enright says at last, quite thoughtful. The drinks is on me, barkeep.'
 Excuse me- says Doc Peets, but as the author of this yere plot, takes it the p'isen is on me. Barkeep, set out all your bottles
 "'Gents,' says Jack Moore, I'm as peaceful man as ever jingled spur or pulled gun in Wolfville, but as l re fleets on the active part takes in this yere play, l won't be responsible for results if any man comes between me an payin' for these drinks Bar keep, Pm doin' this myself
 Well, it's hard encomeratin' just how many drinks we do have. Jim Wallace throws away the wagon cover | an comes over from the New York store an stands in with us. It gets to be orgy.
 Otcourse it's all right says En, right; the camp wins with Tut in stead of Wallace, that's all. It illus trates one of them beautiful character istics of the gentler sex, too. Yere's Wallace, to say nothin' of twenty others, as besieges arr beleagues this yere female for six weeks an she scorns 'em. Yere's Tut, who ain't sayin' a word, don't bat an eye, nor wag a year, an she grabs him. It is sech uncertainties, gents, as makes the love of woman valuable
 "'You should have asked me- says Faro Nell, who comes in right then an rounds up right close to Cherokee. Why, could tell you two weeks ago Jennie's in love with Tut. Anybody could see 1t. Why, she's been feedin of him twice as good grub as she doe4 anybody else. '"-Washington Post.

A Shotgun Was Discharged at Sheriff, but
 Injured Children Across the Street.
 Iowa CITY, Ia., Aug. 15-John Smith, aiding his brother, George Smith, in an attempt to prevent Sheriff Jones from evicting the latter at Frank Pierce's yesterday, discharged a shot, gun at the officers head. The load simply scorched the sheriff's face, but sped across the street and injured Bes- sic and Elsie Cupp, Brick and Herbert Eager, and Charles Petrie, all children. Brick Eager and Elsie Cupp were so se- riously injured that they may not re- cover. The others will doubtless live. Petrie is an orphan, but the parents of the other children are prominent peo- pie, and threats of lynching were loud and many. The sheriff and his deputy arrested the brothers and brought them to Iowa City last night, and they are now lodged in jail.

 The Queens Address Refers to the Murder
 of Missionaries In ChIu1 and the Ar
 menian Msssacres.
 LONDON Aug. l6 The last of the new, mem bers of the house of commons were sworn in Wednesday, and when that body reassembled yesterday, the members were summoned to the house of lords with the usual formalities, and the queens speech was read by the lord chancellor, Baron Halsbury, as follows.
 My Lords and Gentlemen: The cosnmunica- Cions which I receive from foreign powers as. sure me of the continuance of their good will. am happy to say that no international com plleatlon has arisen in any quarter calculated to endanger the peace of Eu- rope, The war between China and Japan. which was in progress at the opening of the last session, has been brought to n conclusion by a peace which trust will endure. I observed strict neutrality during the war, and have taken no action in respect thereto, except such as appears to me likely to be favorable to termination of hostillties.
 deeply regret to say that the most atrocious outrages upon . body of English missionaries are reported from the province of Fu-Kien, in China. In reply to earnest representation ad. dressed to the Chinese government by my di- recttoh, active measures, which I trust will prove effective, are being taken for the punish ment of the murderers and all persons in any degree responsible for these crimes.
 The internal troubles which have brolS en ou, Tn the Armenian districts of Asiatic Turkey have been attended with horrors which have moved to indignation the Christian nations Of Europe generally and my people espe- cially. My ambassador and the ambasSa- dors of the emperor of Russia and the president of the French republic, acting together, have suggested to the government Of the sultan reforms which in their opinion are necessary to prevent recurrence of constant disorder. These proposals are now being con sidered by the sultan and am anxiously awaiting his decision

Three Men Killed and Ten Wounded NooB Ardmore. !. T.
 ARDNoBE, 1. T., Aug. 1j.-Thrce men killed and ten others badly wounded is
 the record of threshing machine boil-
 erexplOsion near Oakland, 25 miles east
 of this city. The men were busy at work yesterday about the machine
 when the explosion took place. Engi-
 neer Short had just replenisbed the
 fires beneath the boiler and closed the doors. Without warning the boiler ex-
 ploded, tearing the machinery to
 pieces and hurling bits of iron and
 pieces of wood for hundreds of yards. Every man about the machine was knocked down. Two horses 30 yards, away were struck by flying scraps of
 iron and killed.
 A big force of men was working about the thresher. When the explo- sion took place they were all thrown off their feet and enveloped in great cloud of steam. In moment the air was filled with the cries of pain and agony of the living injured,
 while the bodies of three men lay still and silent in death with blood flowing from gaping wounds in their heads. It was an appalling sight The bodies of the dead were placed in wagon and taken to Oak land. The injured men were cared for at the houses of farmers until they could be removed to Oakland

Superintendent Hsilman Says tho Red Man
 Should Do Some Work.

Should Do Some Work.
 WASHINGTON, Aug 14-W. N. Hail. man, superintendent of Indian schools, came in yesterday from Fl Reno, where he had been attending conven- ton of teachers in Indian schools in the southwest. Mir. Hailman said that there is not an Indian tribe in Oklahoma which is not able to take care ot itself in the main by labor, and he takes the position that the aid being given the Indians by the gov |ernment is an actual injury to them. He says that it is useless to educate .he Indians and send them home duy- ing vacations to be surrounded with lazy parents, who are being fed by the government. The Cheyennes and Arapahoe Indians are citizens of the United States; they vote at cleo tions and at the same time they are getting government help. Many white men would take government supplies if they could get them, but it would be an injury to them, as it is to the h. dians. The professor says the Indians should be made to work for living, where they have land suited to agri- cultural pursuits, and the method now in vogue is great injury to the h. dians themselves, but does not offset the work of the schools. It is under stood that the Indian office is likely to take new departure in its recom- mendations for appropriation by con- gress for the support of Indians The plan will probably be to place a lump sum to the credit of the commissioner of Indian affairs, to be used at his dis erection, and in cases where Indians should work for living or are rem dered unable to do so by sickness, and in this way force the Indians to be self sustaining.

The Born Angler.

He was by nature and heredity one of those predestined anglers whom Izaak Walton tersely described as "born so." His earliest passion was fishing. His favorite passage in Holy Writ was that place where Simon Peter throws line into the sea and pulls out great fish at the first cast. But hitherto his passion had been in- dulged under difficulties-with impro- vised apparatus of cut poles, and fab by pieces of string, and bent pins, which always failed to hold the biggest fish; or perhaps, with borrowed tackle, dangling fat worm in vain before the noses of the staring, supercilious sun fish that poised themselves in the clear | water around certain hotel dock at Lake George; or, at best on picnic parties across the lake, marred by the humiliating presence of nurses, and disturbed by the obstinate refusal of old Horace, the boatman, 10 believe that the boy could bait his own hook, but sometimes crowned with the de. light of bringing home a whole basket ful of yellow perch and goggle-eyes. Of nobler sport with game fish, like the vaulting salmon and the merry, pugnacious trout, as yet the boy had only dreamed, But he had heard that there were such fish in the streams that flowed down from the mountains around Lake George, and he was at the happy age when he could believe anything-if it was sufficiently inter- esting. van Dyke, in Century.

 WASHINGTON, Aug l4.-Tbe follow ing cablegram, signed by the Chinese foreign office, the Tsung Ii Yamen, was received at the Chinese legation yesterday;
 No Americans were injured in the recent riots, though several English were. Five of the rioters have been arrested.
 This is the first official information which has been received by the lega- ton concerning the recent riots, and the fact that nothing was sent until information of the arrest of some of the rioters, would be reported, is taken at the legation to mean that the Chi nese government is anxious to have the world. understand that the Chinese are exercising their utmost endeavors to punish those who participated in the assaults upon the missionaries
