E1EHILE CLERK LA HAY was in
EIy tue city last week he issued
more permits for a year than have
been taken out in long time. White
clerk law or no, the merchants pro-
posed to pay the tax, if the clerk was
disposed to issue (and he could do no
differently and it stands to reason that
the possession of those documents will
go long ways with jury towards Sc
curing an acquittal, should there he
any prosecutions. Where it gets its
authority is unknown. but the Table
quah Capital, few days since, had
the following regarding this trouble
some law. indicating it to be inopera-
tive: at will be gratifying news, if
true, to many people of the nation TO
learn that the "white clerk" bill is OF
no effect. The bill was passed in both
houses over the chiefs veto. but the
records in the executive department
show that the measure was not pro-
mulgated in accordance with the treaty
Of 1866 and the laws of the Cherokee
nation, providing for the publication
of penal acts. The bill was published
in the Cherokee Advocate within the
specified twenty days from the ad-
journment of the regular session OF
council, yet there is no record in the
executive department showing that
the bill was ever promulgated, and in
what manner. The law may be put
in force when the time arrives, but
this defect will undoubtedly open up
an avenue for untold litigation and
endless trouble, tosay nothing of the
expense it would incur to the nation"
H BOUT \ YEAR AGOCW Poole.
LA Cherokee Indian, built a fence
near Chelsea. One John Young, a
colorcd man, living near Poole's place,
concluded Poole was trespaSsing on him
and constituting himself a court de-
cided that Poole had forfeited the
fencing for the use and benefit of
Young. Accordingly lie took the wire
and posts, and moved it away: put
part of it on his own fence an6 rolled
the remainder of the wire up and hid
it in the center of his field, in the
grass. Poole denied Young's right to
adjudicate the matter and applied to
the L. :. commissioner for warrant
for larceny, but upon the trial Young
swoTe and proved by other witnesses
that ne was Cherokee citizen, where
upon the commissioner released him.
Poole then reported the case to the
grand jury, which promptly indicted
Young for larceny. The case was
called in the district court at Clare
more, Monday, when the defendant
moved TO dismiss on the ground that
Poole had taken the oath OF allegiance
under the act of congress of 1899, and
therefore the court had no jurisdic-
tion. This view was taken by the
judge, Watt Starr, and Young dis
charged. This ruling is in harmony
with the action of the late national
council, in sustaining the challenged
votes of Cherokees who had taken the
oath of allegiance as had Poole.

BAby Card Etiuuette.

It is satisfactory to know that there
has been a reform in the style of baby
cards" When the scion of the house
Of Watkins arrives 1t is not necessary
10 place anything more on the card
than the baby's name-as soon as he
has one. This card is attached to the
parents card by bow of narrow
white satin ribbon or silver cord.
When the baby's name has been an
nounced there Is nothing else to be
placed on the card. 1t was the custom
TO give the young gentleman's weight
usually the lying figures of ten
pounds, or even fifteen pounds, when
the father thought it would look bet
ter. There have been baby cards con-
tanning a biography of the parents, a
dozen branches of the genealogical
tree, and sometimes where the father
worked and how much salary he re-
ceived. But all this is regarded as
superfiuous nowadays. 1t simplifies
the composition of the inscription and
saves printers ink.

The latest effort of the modiste is
Known as the speaking" gown. but as
lar as can be learned the name does not
imply either hidden mechanism or any
fresh achievement en- the part of the
magician. The prosaic truth, stated in
prosaic English, reveals only the fact
that the dressmaker who prepares her
patron for the platform has a doubly
difficult task. Women who make up
audiences have not ceased, as yet, to
indulge in criticisms concerning the
costume of the lecturer; and, as the
gown in question is liable to be under
inspection for considerable period OF
lime, 1t behooves the artist to make it
ideally perfect, thai both it and she
may endure the ordeal.

Unconscious Humor.

1t is not always safe to resort to set
phrases when wishing to compliment.
a story IS told of 4 certain lawyer,
extremely studious, but in converse
ton notoriously dull, who was showing
off his newly built house. The book
worm prided himself especially on a
sanctum he had contrived for his own
use, so secluded from the rest of the
building that he could pour over his
books IN private, quite secure from
disturbance.
"And this is capital" exclaimed the
visitor with unconscious irony. "You
can read and study here all day, and
no human being be one bit the wiser.

Plowed Up a $1,000 Cent.

J. ID. Thurber, Of East Aurora, N.
Y, recently purchased for so cents a
cent bearing the date Of 1904 from a
farmer near this village, who had
plowed up the coin. He wrote to a
Boston collecting firm to ascertain its
value, and received reply few days
ago stating that it was worth 81, 200
if in a good state of preservation.
There is but one other such coin
known to be in existence. On one
side is a head, with the word "Liber-
ty' in the margin over it, and under
it is the date 1904.

A Hint for the Laundry.

Never let the laundress, in her COM
mendable desire to give a gloss to ta-
oie linen, starch it. To produce a
nigh, satiny polish on damask it
should first be thoroughly dampened
and then ironed with heavy hatiron
until it is absolutely dry. Tablecloths
and napkins should never leave the
ironing board in limp condition. If
Shey are at all moist, they will not
only look dull and lustreless in the
beginning, but they will soon lose the
snape and trimness without which they
are untidy and slovenly looking, says
an exchange.
