BELONGED TO A SUICIDE CLUB.
At Least That's What Hang Said Be-
fore He Died.

When George G. Haag. twenty-five years
Of age, told the occupants of the Monarch
boarding house In San Francisco that he
belonged to a suicide club and would kill
himself when the proper time came, they
treated the matter as joke. When he
took a dose Of strychnine Tuesday night in
the rooms of Mrs. Nellie Parker who was
his spiritual guide to the other world, they
realized he meant what he had said.
Haag was quiet and good-natured
young man, who said little or nothing to
any one. He never seemed to be IN want
for anything. and often spoke of his father.
who lives in Tyner City, Marshall county,
presumed his father kept him supplied
with money. He claimed to have been
member Of the Central Suicide Club of New
Jersey, and that when mis- time came to
die he would die like a man. He often said
that 1T was not far off. and three weeks
ago said Re would die before June.

DELEGATE DOUGLAS.
lie Returns From Washington and Rem
ders an Account of His Stewardship
An Interesting Interview.

Hon. G. b. Douglas returned last
night from Washington, where, for
the past seven weeks he had been as
one of the accredited delegates from
the ChickaSaw nation To work for the
enactment by congress of tOwnsite
law to apply generally To the towns Of
the ChickaSaw Nation.
During his SojOurn at tine national
capital, Mr.. Douglas has worked with
but one aim, that being To faithfully
discharge the duties incumbent upon
him by virtue of the trust TepOSed in
him as such delegate.
That he has done this, and that
through his persistent and intelligent
efforts much good has been accom-
plished. there are surely none to queS-
tion. He returns with a clear record
of duty we'll performed. Whether or
not tie end sought is obtained at the
present session of congress, Mr.. Doug
las has made an honorable distinction
for himself and the people whom he
represented. The only regret is. that
by force OF circumstances, he was
called home at time when his ser
vices were so greatly needed.
There was an informal meeting this
mo ming in the law offices OF Led
better * Bledsoe. which was attended
by a goOdly number Of people anxious
to know the situation as Mr.. Douglas
viewed it.
Mr.. Douglas was there, and gave a
detailed account Of his stewardship.
which of course involved the progress
so far made in the way of prospective
( legislation.
To a reporter for the AIDMoREITE
he talked quite freely, and below is
given the gist OF what he said:

INDIAN AFFAIRS.
The President is Believed to be Changing
his Attitude Toward the Red Men
Probable Legislation.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The state
ment that all the last cabinet meet
ing, lasting for more than two hours,
was given over to the active discus
sion of Indian affairs, is probably the
best indication that can be had of
the attention which the Indian prob
lem is receiving at the hands of the
government generally.
As is we'll known, the Indian ques-
ton has always been one peculiarly
interesting to the president. He has
particularly exalted ideas on the
subject of treaty relations between
the government and the Indian
tribes. Those who talk with him on
the subject are led in the belief that
he is discussing international affairs
rather than relations existing be-
tween this government and its wards.
This greatly annoys western people,
who are particularly anxious to put
an end to the higher Indian-rights
idea, and who are anxious to regard
the Indian in his true light, de-
pendent upon the governments
bounty, and also the object of its
constant protection, and who are
anxious in consequence to have the
government take, Independently of
the Indians, whatever step it deems
best for the Indians welfare.
The Republic correspondent has
reason to believe that the president
has not the full support of his cabi-
net in his position, and that he, too,
is gradually leaving the high ground
on which he has heretofore stood.
In discussing the matter last week
with visiting federal judge from
the west, Mr.. Cleveland said that
while he had heretofore been very

WITHOUT A HEARING.
The Guthrie Leader Comments at Length
on the Removal Of Marshal Nix From
ofnee-BehInd Closed Doors

Mr.. Nix asserts with vehemence
that he has not been given n chance
to meet the charges preferred against
him. II this is true, then, the re-
moval of Marshal Nix has no parallel
in the history of federal procedure.
Without court, judge or jury, with
out arraignment or any opportunity
/ for defense a high ministerial officer
is shorn of power and branded with
malfeasance in the community where
he lived and built up an honest
name.
! II an employer had determined to
discharge one in his employ it would
certainly be against every principle
of right, contrary to all custom, and
4 opposed to every dictate of con-
science to dispense with his services
without due notice and proper op-
portunity to acquit himself, il
charged with wrong doing. The in
dividual employer is but an atom of
the broad sense of justice which ami
mates tue American people. Yet
this great government, which is the
embodiment and the aggregate of
that love of justice so predominant
in all its citizens, sees At to peremp-
torily eject an officer hitherto clothed
with an important trust without
allowing him a day in court and up
on charges which could not be met,
since their nature is to this day un-
known.
This newspaper has no criticism
to offer upon Mr.. Nagle or his ap-
pointment. lie is unquestionably
a democrat and has, no doubt, pro-
per qualifications for a competent
discharge of the duties of the office.
Nor does it defend Mr.. Nix. IL a
party to fraud he should be stripped
of office. For aside from a principle
of right and the foundation of good
government, no party, man or set of
men can afford to cover a wrong or
conceal a wrongdoer. But our con-
tention is that he should be given
hearing. Not because the accused is
Mr.. Nix, or because he is a Democrat
but because it involves the principle
which underlies human liberty-the
principle which demands for an ac-
cused, the right to be confronted
with the witnesses and the facts
which bear against him, and the
right to be heard in his own defense.
This the constitution guarantees to
every man born under its sovereignty
or who takes an oath for its support.
The Democratic party is as old as
that sacred instrument itself, and it
has lived because it holds inviolable
the equal rights of all. 1t asks JUS

anxious to act justly with the Indians
and to have a solemn regard for the
treaty obligation between their gov
ernment and this, he was rapidly
coming to the conviction that un-
less the government came immedi-
ately to their protection and COM
PEELED them to secure for themselves
permanent rights of citizenship, in
truders and dunscrupulOus half-breeds
would within a few years completely
deprive them of every means of
sustenance. This is the position
taken by Secretary Smith in his ap-
proval of the report of the Dawes
commission. 1t will be remembered
that the commission recommends
positive action, regardless of the
wishes of the Indians in forcing the
situation on them. The commission
is at present in Washington and is
here to advise congress following the
l, nes the recommendations. Men,
bers of the commission have also
been in consultation with the presl-
dent, and it was in regard to their
recommendations that so much dis
cussion was had at the last cabinet
meeting on Friday.
The Republic correspondent saw
Secretary Smith tonight, and he is
still extremely hopeful that the mat
ter VIII be settled in some salts
factory way at this session of con-
gress. With no important party
question pending, the secretary says
that he believes the Indian problem
of such non-partisan character that
it will be easily agreed upon by the
legislative executive branches of the
government. The secretary does
not hesitate to express his condem-
nation of many of the Indian reform
schemes proposed in congress, but
looks upon these as also an evidence
of the general desire to put an end
to this ever-present and long trouble
some matter.

ATTRACTIVE WOMEN.

Why is one woman attractive and
another not? The most admirable and
attractive thing about an attractive
woman is her womanliness. Everybody
admires womanly woman. She must
have health, Of course, because without
it she would lose the brightness Of her
eyes, the fulIness Of her cheeks, and
her vivacity. Real health must mean
that woman is really a woman. That
she is strong and perfect in a sexual
way as well as in every other. That
she is capable Of performing perfectly
the duties Of maternity. Some are born
with what is called constitutional
weakness" Some who do not enjoy
perfect health, need only take the prop
er precautions and the proper remedy
to become perfectly well and strong.
