A Highly Gifted Indian Girl.

Miss Eta Scott of Kokomo, Ind, a
teacher in the kindergarten department
Of the Indian schools at Fort Sill, o. r.,
returned home the other day, bringing
with her 5-year-old Indian girl who
is prodigy. The dusky damsel, Nahma
Coffee by name, speaks English fluent
ly, sings like lark and executes with
ease the most intricate dances. Nahma
is the leader of her class and is intrust-
ed with the direction of the drills. She
was one Of twins, and, according to the
barbarous superstition Of the Indians,
was condemned to die, it being consid-
cred an i'll omen to raise twins. Nahma,
the little papoose, was found in the
bushes in famished condition, and
Professor Cox of the Indian school took
her in charge, unknown to the parents,
and has adopted her as his own child.
Little Mamma is remarkably bright and
interesting. She holds levees every day
and has constant stream Of callers

INDIAN GIRLS ROMANCE.
Her Lover Who Left Her sends Good

Her Lover Who Left Her sends Good
News From Alaska.
When tho steamer Portland arrived
recently bringing the news Of the rich
gold discoveries In Alaska, her mails
contained letter which brought Joy
and renewed hops to Miss Inola Two
wee, beautiful Indian woman resid-
ing near Miami, !. T., In tho Cherokee
Nation.
Several years ago William Sewers
was noncommissioncd officer In tho
regular army, stationed at Fort Gibson.
Miss Twowee's father was post sutler.
She fell In love with Sewers and they
eloped. Soon after Sewers deserted her
and fed the country. Charges OF deser-
tion from tho army were preferred
against him and q strong effort to locate
him was made, but he could never
be found. The letter in question is
from Sewers and was received by Miss
Twowee several days ago. In IL Sewers
says he has struck 1t rich on the Klon-
dixie and intends to return home In the
spring and claim Miss Twowee as his
wife.
He has been seven years In Alaska
and gives q graphic description OF the
hardships he has encountered In his
search for gold. In one place he refers
to instances where the bones Of prospect
ors lie bleaching in the sun, and he says
the banks of the Yukon are strewn with
the bodies of unfortunates who entered
the country unprepared to face the ter
rible, cold weather which sets in at the
beginning Of September. Exchange.

ated near Danville. Montour county. Pa.
The estate consists Of lands right in

valuable mine. There are only five

ton, Mich.
The estate was left by Keefer's ia
ther's grandfather to his father and his
heirs. The heirs could give no idea Of
the amount of the estate further than

HARD ON TOBACCO MEN.
A Short Paragraph That Will Cost Them
Much Money.


A Short Paragraph That Will Cost Them
Much Money.
The Dingley law has caused q panic
among importers of tobacco, who de-
clare that one short paragraph in the
new law means loss to them of thou
sands of dollars every year. The para
graph is part Of section 38 Of the act
which compels importers to pay duty
on tobacco at the weight it goes into
the bonded warehouse. This takes from
tobacco men a privilege that has for
many years been accorded to them by
the tariff laws. Under the Wilson act
and previous laws importers have had
their tobacco reweighed at the time Of
it's withdrawal from bonded warehouses,
and ON this weight duties were col
lected.
The weight Of tobacco is greatly re-
duced during the bonded period by
evaporation.
When tobacco arrives from q long
ocean voyage, it is frequently INSULT
GENTLY cured and has absorbed large
percentage of moisture. This moisture
evaporates in the warehouse. Experts
estimate that the importer saves $25 to
$40 bale on Sumatra and sometimes
as high as $40 a bale on Havana leaf by
paying ON the dried out tobacco. I'm
porters will now gain nothing by delay,
but must pay duties at ST. SO per pound
of the weight on their tobacco at the
time of its arrival They estimate that
the loss to importers in New York
alone will be 100000 year.
