en- route, and whenever the journey
is broken the choicest rooms in the
leading hotels will be reserved for
the use of the tourists, for which
regular rates are paid, SO that the
guests, although members Oft party,
enjoy all the privileges Of individ.
uals who may have made their own
selections.
The party will be conducted
throughout by tourist agent espec-
tally selected for his ability and ex-
perience, with chaperons TO look after
the comfort of lady passengers.
The rate, covering every neces-
sary expense, will be $2lO from Bos-
ton, and 5000 from New York, Phil
adelphia, Baltimore, Washington and
Harrisburg; proportionate rates from
other points.

Queer Bridal Custom.

A singular marriage custom pre-
walls among the French Canadians
in Quebec. After the morning mar
rage service in the church, the bril-
dial party, in calaehe or cariolet,
make tour of calls upon relatives
and friends during the day, and then
return again to the church tor ves-
pers.
Before the evening dance at the
brides new home comes the supper.
When the company rise from tue
table, aud the bride keeps her seat,
and some one asks with great digni-
ty: "Why does madame wait? Is
she so soon in bad grace p
She replies "Some one has stolen
my slipper; l cannot walk"
Then they carry her, chair and all,
into the middle of the room, while a
lcud knocking announces grotesque
ragged vender of boots and shoes of
every variety and size until at last
he finds her missing shoe.
The groom redeems it for a good
price which is spent in treating the
company. If the groom is not
watchful they steal her hat and
cloak, which he redeems 10 the
same way; and they have been
known to steal the bride, for which
there must be liberal pay. The
church torbids round dances. The
event Of the evening is a jig, in
which the guest, volunteers to out
dance the bride. If successful, the
visitor demands a prize from the
groom.-Chicago Inter-Ocean.

Beattx,s ORGANS and Pianos.

Hon. Daniel F. Beatty, of Washing
ton, New Jersey, the great Organ
and Piano manufacturer, is building
more Organs and Pianos than ever.
In 1870 Mr.. Beatty left home a pen
niless plow boy, and by his indomit-
able will he has worked his way up
so as to sell so far, nearly 100000 OF
Beatty's Organs and Pianos since
1870. Nothing seems to dishearten
him; obstacles laid in his way, that
would have wrecked an ordinary man
forever, he turns to an advertisement
and comes out of it brighter than
ever. His instruments, as is well
known, are very popular and are to
be found in all parts of the world.
We are informed that during the
next ten years he intends to sell 200, :
600 more of his make; that means a
business of $40, 900, 900, if we average
them at 500 each. 1t is already the
largest business of the kind in exist
ence. Write or call upon Daniel F.

ARDMoRE, SUNDAY. JAN. 10.
The ARDmoRE1TE has it from

THE ARDMOREITE has it from
unquestioned authority that the
legislation to effect this country
has been practically agreed upon.
1t will be a Dawes commission
measure, framed and recommended
by that body. While this infOr-
nation was not impaired for publ
cation it is authentic so far as the
details of an arrangement effected
between our Washington delegates
and the Dawes commission are
concerned. 1t is simply this,
the townsite bill introduced will
be withdrawn from the committee
and will be incorporated as a part
of the bill to be recommended by
the Dawes commission, which will
have for its object the extension
over this country of a territorial
form of government, the townsite
feature to take immediate effect
and the general change at future
period not to exceed two years.
This bill being framed on the lines
of the Dawes commissions recon-
mendations will receive the en-
dOrsement of the president and
secretary of the Interior and going
to congress with such endorse
ments will certainly not fail of
passage. The ARDMOREITE has
never for a moment doubted the
success of townsite legislation and
now we feel assured beyond meas
ure that it is in sight. We can
see no objection to the provisions
of the proposed legislation. Even
with two years in which to effect
a complete change of conditions,
the country will prosper. We are
firmly of the opinion that such
change will be more satisfactory
coming by degrees. There is a
crying present need for tOwnsites
and with that feature to take i'm
mediate effect, the people of the
country at large, knowing for
certainty of more sweeping changes
at stated date will have time to
conform to the conditions with
which they will have to contend.
They can better prepare to meet
them. On with the proposition,
on with the legislation.

MANY Indians are criticising the
report of the Dawes Commission
severely. They charge them with
all sorts of misrepresentation II
is well known that Senator Dawes
has always been the Indians's
friend. The same can be said of
Gen. Armstrong in a peculiar sense.
Capt McKennOn is equally their
friend. The personal character of
all these men is above reproach.
Would it not be wise for these who
criticise to stop and think little.
Why is it that so pronounced a
friend as Gen. Armstrong should
have changed his mind in so short
a time? Must it not be that he
has found that the things stated
are true! 1t is impossible that
they could have agreed upon a re-
port that is all untrue. They did
not try to force or intimidate. as is
charged. They simply stated
what was likely to take place.
Their words are already almost
proved true. e.-SOuth McAlester
