for this purpose. IN pracuce a uIvIuru
frame is used, and the exact distance
of certain marked points on the plaster
cast is accurately measured. Fixed
points on the stone are marked. and
from these the other points are meas
urcd with instruments, and the depth
to which the stone must be cut or
drilled is determined with great ac-
curacy. In this way all prominent
points are marked out, and holes are
drilled to the required depth and the
intervening marble chiseled away, at
first roughly, then with greater and
greater care, till the marble begins to
assume its finished shape. In the
larger sculpture works one man does
the marking, another the rough chisel-
ing, another the fine work. Finally a
stage is reached when it again passes
into the hands of the sculptor himself,
and he 1t is who puts the lines of genius
Into ii with his fine instruments. AL
though the workers In Carrara are
clever, they seldom are gifted enough
TO supply the finishing touches which
give the characteristics of the great
sculptors themselves.-N. Y. Tribune.

The General MYsfified.

General Armstrong OF the Dawes
commission is letting his "gift of
CAB" play him some unfortunate
tricks. He said recently that ihe
Cboctaw -Chickasaw agreement
provided for paying sixty-two and
a half per cent of the valuation of
the land in its unimprOved condi-
ton; not sixty-two and half per
cent of its current market value
The agreement says: "When said
towns are laid out each lot. on
which permanent, substantial and
valuable improvements, other than
fences, tillage and temporary
houses have been made, shall be
valued by the commission pro-
vided for the nation in which TIE
towns are located at the price a
fee simple title to the same would
bring in the market at the same
time the valuation is made, but
not to include in such value the
improvements thereon. The own
er OF the improvements on each
lot shall. have the right to buy the
same at sixty-two and a half per
cent of the said market value with
in sixty days of the date of notice
served on him that such lot is for
SALE"
In commenting on the difference
between what the agreement says
and what it means, as interpreted
by the loquacious general, the
South McAlester Capital saws:
''If it does not mean what it says
what does it mean? There is no
ambiguity about the two sentences
that have been the cause of nine
tenths of the criticism that has been
directed at the Dawes commission
since the promulgation of the
treaty in April. Non-citizens to
unit would be happy to believe
that General Armstrong; view of
the case was correct and they
would perhaps hasten to Tuska-
homa and help Gov. McCurtain
and his supporters pass a bill to
ratify the treaty, but they are not
fastening. Gen. Armstrong has
a new way to analyze sentences,
or he may be starting a new leH
con in which words have diamet-
rically opposite significance to that
which is usually attached to them
by modern photographers. but
the people will go on believing
that the agreement means what il {
says, and that under the agree (
ment if they owned lot valued at (
he current valuation at 500 they .
would be compelled to pay SGD 80 ;
% the Choctaw nation to retain it, {

.rary Notwithstanding.

Honor to Whom Honor is Due.

There has been a great deal said
first and last about the Dawes
commission, part of which at least
is neither creditable to the COM
mission nor the Individual men,
bers composing the same. Among
other things it is charged with
taking stock in a certain townsite
company and using their official
influence in securing government
favor for the town. and again that
they, the members of the commits
sion, were unmindful OF their du-
ties and had spent the summer at
some watering resort or hanging
around the white house scheming
to prolong their job.
Either accusation, if true. should
receive the condemnation of all
good people. We know the COM
mission has bad knotty questions
to solve and obstinate people to
deal with and we know further
that the people are acquainted
with the official labors of the indi-
vidual members of the commission
and the time has come when it is
no longer cursed as a body. We
know that Montgomery and Arm
strong left the field of labor on the
first day of July and returned the
third day of August. One of them
remained at his post of duty only
one day and the other only three
and did not return again until
Sept. 9Th. Yet we are told these
gentlemen drew their pay just the
same. 1t was our pleasure to call
on the commission a time or two
during the summer and found
Capt. McKennon all alone. except
his efficient secretary, Mr.. Jaco-
way, with his coat off, sleeves
rolled up and his table filled with
papers, busy at work. He has net
only been an untiring worker, but
his courteous manner, pleasant
dealing and honesty Of purpose
has characterized his every act and
endeared him to everyone whom
he has come in contact with, in
fact he is the business end of the
commission and for him to be re-
placed now would greatly retard |
if not thwart the accomplishment |
of their mission. 1t is the COM
mon verdict of four iftbs of the
entire people of the territory ire
spective OF race, politics or inter
est in allotment that he be retain
ed for they have confidence in him
and believe that he will not only
deal fairly with all parties but
that he would condemn and ex-
pose any scheme or trick that
might be attempted.-Wagoner

Creatures Thnt Thrive in subterra-
mean Parts of the French Capital.
Milne Edwards, the celebrated zooio-
gist, is making an examination of the
various forms of life which thrive
among the bones which line the ex-
tensive catacombs of Paris. The little
animals which live among the relics of
no fewer than 100000 souls, packed
into these underground galleries, are
chiefly insects, centipedes and crusta-
ceans, but they are so curiously altered
by their surrounding conditions as to
present some interesting features to
the naturalist. They form an interme-
diate or transition species between
those which live in the light of day and
the same animals found in natural
caves.
The prevailing color is white of diff
ferent shades, for light is required for
the development of the colors of pig
ments in animals and plants. Some
insects which have red eyes, apparent
ly sound, are blind, and when n light
approaches they show no symptoms of
alarm until they feel the heat of it.
In others the place where the eyes
ought to be is covered with integument
and there is no trace of the eye. TO
compensate for this deficiency the audi
tory and factile systems are abnormallv

growing all over the body. helping the
animal to find its prey or avoid some
danger. The eampedes live on moss.
pcdurelles swarm in the fungi, myria-
pedes eat the old wood and white
worms, beetles and spiders abound.
The underground water Is also thronged
with infusoria, cyclops which feed on
them and an infinite variety of forms of

Farewell of Miss Bates to
San Francisco Friends.
A Reception on the Stage of the
Columbia Theater-Society
Affair-Something New.

Ellen Terry gave a tea on the Lon
don Lyceum stage, a couple of years
ago, and all the writes, artists, news
paper people, celebrities, and many
fashionables were among the guests.
She had some of the great lights in the
musical world to entertain her friends,
and in most informal manner she fit
ted about helping with the tea and the
talk. This was the first time that just
such a reception was given on the
stage, says the San Francisco Report.
There have been after-the-matinee re-
ceptions to the admiring girls of some
popular woman star, and all actresses
have particular friends who are invit-
ed behind the scenes. But the regular
ly society-managed tea is rarely given
80 when the friends of Miss Blanche
Bates of the Frawley Company, receiv-
ed formal cards to tea on the Co.
lumbia stage a great deal of curiosity
was excited and not regret was
thought of.
MISS Bates has many warm friends
to her mother and herself for years.
Although her busy life precludes her
accepting social invitations, Miss Bates
is never forgotten by her friends, and
it was to show her appreciation that
she determined to reciprocate by tea
before leaving San Fransico for HO-
nolulu. Mrs. and Miss Bates lived a
long way out of town, and so it was
decided to entertain at the theatre, the
management courteously aiding and
abetting Miss Bates idea. The cards
said "stage entrance" and from till
5, the man at the door was kept busy
admitting guests. Scenery made a
long hallway, and the turn revealed a
brilliantly lighted drawing room
handsomely furnished and lavishly de-
corated with chrysanthemums. The
curtain between the stage and the
house was dropped, forming solid
wall, and touches, chairs, paino and
flowers made it the actual wall of a
room. There was no suggestion that
the guests were in any but handsome
private residence. A conservatory
background formed the tea room, and
here Mrs. Paul Cowes, Mrs. Varney
Gaskill and Mrs. Curtis served the
guests, assisted by Mr.. Worthington
Mrs and Miss Bates received the con-
stantly arriving guests in delightfully."-
hearty and cordial fashion.
FULL, 200 guests enjoyed Miss Bates
hospitality. The ladies were hand
somely gowned, and the men in theil
severely correct afternoon dress form.

was believed to be an inherited dis

PROTEST AGAINST SIX STORIES.

Work on Hotel Monopole Stopped by
 Fire Marshal.
 James T. Dunn, proprietor of the Ho- tel Monopole, who is raising the build Ing from height of four stories to six stories, was yesterday ordered by Fire Marshal Fancher to discontinue work as the permit issued by the fire commits sioners to MT, Dunn gave permission for only five stories. The building as now raised consists of five full stories and one story of wood on top of the brick structure to serve as base for a tower. The so-called sixth story is not of the width of the lower stories, nor does it extend to the rear of the build ing.
 It is said that a complaint was made by the owner of an adjoining building, who alleged danger to his building on account of the height of the Monopole. MT. Dunn will probably file an appeal with the fire commissioners.
